Drug-delivery Systems of Phytochemicals as Therapeutic Strategies in Cancer Therapy elucidates the importance of various phytochemicals in cancer therapy and explains various routes/methods to deliver phytochemicals for overcoming the problems associated with delivery systems in cancer treatment. Several nanotechnological methods are presented to enhance drug solubility, sustainability, bioavailability, and gastrointestinal permeability of these phytochemicals. Current understanding of the relevant information presented on therapeutic strategies in cancer therapy fulfils the requirements of oncologists, molecular biologists, pharmacologist and related researchers who want to work in the areas of drug development targeting phytochemicals for cancer therapy.
