Polymeric Micelles for Drug Delivery and Cancer Therapy

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to invite you to contribute to an upcoming Special Issue on "Polymeric Micelles for Drug Delivery and Cancer Therapy". Your expertise and research in this field would serve as a valuable contribution to the advancement of the drug delivery and cancer therapy research community.

Polymeric micelles have emerged as a promising platform for drug delivery applications due to their unique physicochemical properties, such as a high drug loading capacity, controlled drug release, and prolonged circulation time.

The Special Issue aims to highlight the recent progress and advances in the use of polymeric micelles for cancer therapy and drug delivery.

For this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:

• Synthesis, characterization, and optimization of polymeric micelles for drug delivery and cancer therapy;
• Mechanism of drug encapsulation, release, and interaction with biological entities;
• Preclinical and clinical studies of polymeric micelles for cancer treatment and diagnosis;
• Combination therapy using multifunctional polymeric micelles;
• Design and engineering of polymeric micelles for targeted drug delivery.

We encourage submissions that report on novel findings regarding the development, characterization, and application of polymeric micelles in drug delivery and cancer therapy.

We look forward to receiving your contributions.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the Special Issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-anonymized peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Pharmaceutics is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2900 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
