Therapeutic Applications of Anti-Cancer Agents

Dear Colleagues,

The newest approaches to targeted anti-cancer therapies include identifying cancer specific molecules, disrupting cellular pathways, and localizing cytotoxic agents to the tumor environment. This paradigm shift reduces the risk of toxicity and enhances efficacy. This Special Issue will focus on two broad areas: (i) bio-orthogonal chemistry based approaches, and (ii) smart biomaterial-based approaches. We welcome experts in these areas of research to share their knowledge and further the discussion on next generation anti-cancer therapeutics.
