Nanomedicines or nanotherapeutics is an emerging field in which nanotechnology principles are used to design and develop better therapeutics having high safety and efficacy profiles. It is a multidisciplinary approach utilizing knowledge from allied fields like biotechnology and pharmacology in drug development program. Novel modalities for cancer treatment, targeted drug delivery, biosensors, imaging, delivery vehicles and diagnostic methods are being actively investigated by pharmaceutical companies. They have been widely accepted among physicians and patients due to which novel products are expected to generate significant revenues. Several other benefits have yet to be discovered which will further help in the extension of this field. With time, more technological advancements are expected to be made resulting in development better of nanomedicines for several disease indications.
Pharmaceutical companies are developing better drug delivery vehicles with the help of nanotechnology. Unspecificity causes undue wastage of drug, potency reduction and undue side effects during therapy. This problem become serious when patient is suffering from life threatening disease like cancer and use of chemotherapy is a part of therapeutic regime. Easy modification, customizability and cost of product are expected to be the main reasons determining the commercial success besides their pharmacological benefits. Huge investments in research and development are expected to help in identifying useful nanoparticles based drug delivery vehicles. Several methods have been identified by pharmaceutical companies in past few years and many more are being under development.
Use of nanomedicines for cancer is one of the largest and most developed segments containing several products in both market and clinical pipeline. Nanotechnology based liposome products could be observed as one of the most advance segment among oncology medicines. For instance, Doxil by Ortho pharmaceuticals was among first approved cancer nanomedicines by US FDA in 1995 for treating AIDS-related Kaposi's sarcoma. DaunoXome by Galen Ltd is also a liposomal formulation used for the treatment of HIV relates Kaposi sarcoma and clinical trials for utilization of this medicine for leukemia is also under investigation. More products are at different stages of clinical trials which will be introduced in global market in coming years.
