摘要
Lung cancer has surpassed other types of cancer to become the primary cause of cancer-related deaths. Surgery stands as the foremost clinical treatment strategy available for tackling this condition, but it receives a low efficiency for most patients. In recent years, some adjuvant therapies are employed to improve the lung cancer treatment efficiency, such as chemotherapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy. However, these strategies have not significantly increased overall survival of patients. Additionally, the random distribution of drugs will induce severe side effects. Nanomedicines have got great attentions to boost drug effect and reduce adverse reactions, including liposome-based nanoparticles, polymeric nanoparticles, inorganic nanoparticles, and exosomes. Importantly, nanomedicines contribute to improving drug bioavailability, stability and residency in target regions. Benefiting from the physiological characteristics of lung, the inhaled pulmonary delivery strategy in combination with nanomedicine will provide a non-invasive and effective strategy for treating lung cancer. Furthermore, the use of targeting ligands enables precise delivery of loaded drugs to lung cancer cells. Inhaled nanomedicine exhibits unique distribution and sustained release behaviors in the alveoli, amplifying the therapeutic effect and reducing side effects. This review aims to discuss various inhaled methods of delivering nanomedicine to treat lung cancer and also summarizes the clearance mechanism of nanomedicine in the lung. Overall, this review focuses on the application of different inhalable nanomedicines, which may inspire the development of more effective treatments against lung cancer. © 2024 The Authors
