What Are the Challenges in Nanomedicine for Cancer?
Despite its promise, nanomedicine faces several challenges:
1. Biocompatibility: Ensuring that nanoparticles are non-toxic and do not elicit an immune response is critical. 2. Manufacturing: Producing nanoparticles consistently and at scale can be difficult. 3. Regulation: The regulatory landscape for nanomedicine is still evolving, and gaining approval can be complicated. 4. Biodistribution: Achieving optimal distribution and retention of nanoparticles in the tumor site remains a significant challenge.
