The Future of Drug Delivery
Jingjing Gao, Jeffrey M. Karp, Róbert Langer, Nitin Joshi
Abstract
Drug delivery technologies have been proven to improve treatment outcomes in many ways, including enhancing therapeutic efficacy, reducing toxicity, increasing patient compliance, and enabling entirely new medical treatments. As the therapeutic landscape has evolved from small-molecule drugs to a new generation of therapeutics including proteins, peptides, monoclonal antibodies, nucleic acids, and even live cells, drug delivery technologies have also evolved to meet their unique delivery needs.
