Abstract:

Biomaterials for Precision Cancer Medicine bridges the gap between materials science and medicine, providing an insight into novel biomaterial-based treatments for cancer. Cancer is still the second leading cause of death worldwide and whilst traditional pharmaceutical therapies remain key to successful treatment, the rise of drug-resistant cancers has called for alternative therapies. This book describes the various smart biomaterial-based treatments available, reviewing how they can be designed to target specific tumor types, adapt to changes in the cell microenvironment and offer a smart, personalized therapy for different cancer variants, especially those which are drug-resistant. Biomaterials for Precision Cancer Medicine provides a materials-focused look at precision cancer medicine, and would thus be useful to materials scientists, biomedical engineers, and biomedical scientists including cancer and genetic specialists with an interest in alternative cancer therapies. Reviews the state-of-the-art in precision and translational medicine, setting the scene for the introduction of alternative biomaterial-based therapies Covers a range of biomaterials for personalized cancer treatment, including polymer-protein conjugates, smart nanoparticles, metal compounds and more Addresses preclinical assessment, health risks, challenges and future perspective of precision anti-cancer biomaterials
