What are the Challenges Associated with Microspheres?
Despite their potential, there are several challenges associated with the use of microspheres in cancer treatment:
Drug Loading and Release: Achieving the optimal drug loading and release profile can be complex and requires precise engineering. Targeting Accuracy: Ensuring that microspheres accurately target cancer cells without affecting healthy cells is a significant challenge. Biocompatibility: The materials used must be biocompatible and should not provoke immune responses or toxicity. Regulatory Approval: The path to regulatory approval for new microsphere-based therapies can be long and complex.
