Abstract

In the following review, the authors present various methods of using nanoparticles in the therapy of ovarian cancer. Nanoparticles have been shown to prolong the half-time of various chemotheurapeutics, have a lower toxicity, and increase chemosensitivity. It is their hope that this article will widen the discussion within the scientific community on the use of nanotheurapeutics in oncology.

Keywords
