Abstract
Cancer is an age-old malady that has claimed millions of lives across the globe and the death toll is ever increasing. Despite intensive research for over a decade, contemporary anticancer treatment regimens still suffer from certain shortcomings, with drug resistance posing as a major hurdle. In this aspect, natural anticancer products have attracted attention as suitable chemopreventive agents over other synthetic compounds. However, the potential application of such natural compounds has been restricted due to their low bioavailability, poor efficacy amongst other limitations. An exciting advancement in the field of medicine has been the advent of nanoparticles that have reformed the usage of natural products as innovative anticancer therapeutics. This chapter elaborates the role of nanoparticle based natural products as potent and efficacious therapeutic agents for treatment and management of cancer.
