Abstract: | Background Systemic administration of chemotherapeutic agents, in addition to its anti-tumor benefits, results in indiscriminate drug
distribution and severe toxicity. This shortcoming may be overcome by targeted drug-carrying platforms that ferry the drug
to the tumor site while limiting exposure to non-target tissues and organs. |
