Abstract

The present standard therapies for cancer; surgery, anti-cancer drugs and radiotherapy, have major issues in advanced cancers especially, it is unlikely that they will cure the disease permanently. They require huge medical expenditure and the adverse side effects accompanying them put many patients in anguish. These problems may be considered as a result of initiating treatments without considering the root cause of cancer- "the change in energy metabolism". Tumor cells have unique metabolic characteristics, and henceforth cancer can be treated as a metabolic disease and be interfered at different stages of cell metabolism. Cancer, also being characterized by an immunological imbalance, focusing on targeting, involving and regulating cancer-associated immune cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME) with nanomedicines can potentially become a great tool to stop cancer. Stem cells and mAbs have the capability to come handy in targeting the immune system, which demands more clinical research to be done.
