Abstract

These days, Probably the most serious diseases in the entire globe is cancer in the world, and its prevalence is rapidly increasing. Uncontrolled cell development is the cause of it. Although It is always critical for higher specificity and concern about toxic waste across the system, cancer medicines have made significant progress. Recent technological breakthroughs, particularly in the area of biomaterials, have contributed to the spike in early identification, which is crucial for improving patients' prognosis and quality of life. Many of the drawbacks associated with conventional pharmaceutical formulations can be resolved with the use of nanotechnology. Customized nanomaterials have made great strides toward high specificity, sensitivity, and efficacy in cancer detection and treatment. The application of nanoparticles in nanotechnology allows for the integration of nanoscience into medicine. The application of nanoscience to cancer diagnosis and therapy will enhance patient assessment and management, benefit doctors, and enhance the quality of healthcare services. This review article describes the various nanotechnology modalities employed, their limitations and potential side effects, and the therapeutic uses of nanoscience in the contemporary care of cancer.
