Recent advances in nanotherapeutics for multiple myeloma

Abstract

Anticancer therapies cannot be included in a one-size-fits-all scenario; it is imperative to adapt therapies to the tumor molecular profile and most importantly to develop target-specific therapeutics. Nanotherapeutics can combine molecular imaging with molecular therapy in order to provide the maximum benefit to patients in terms of disease prevention, identification, and treatment. Nanotechnology applied to therapy provides numerous advantages in diagnostics and in drug delivery, especially for those malignant cells that are diffcult to target or for drugs with poor bioavailability, such as those used for multiple myeloma (MM). This review summarizes the recent advances in the development of nanoparticle-based systems for the treatment of MM, taking into account the methods used for their functionalization, biocompatibility, and anticancer activity. © 2020 by the authors.
