Nanotherapeutics in Cancer Vaccination and Challenges

by Mahfoozur Rahman PhD (Editor), Sarwar Beg PhD (Editor), Waleed H Almalki (Editor), Nabil A. Alhakamy (Editor), Hani Choudhry (Editor)

Overview

Nanotherapeutics in Cancer Vaccination and Challenges consolidates the current research on cancer nanomedicine and therapeutic cancer vaccination to explore the most effective and promising avenues. The book covers cancer vaccines before exploring nanotherapeutics, DNA and mRNA vaccines in cancer treatment. Finally, it considers regulatory and industrial perspectives on cancer vaccination and nanotherapeutics. This resource will be useful for pharmaceutical scientists and researchers focused on biomedical engineering, chemical engineering, vaccine development, and cancer immunotherapy, along with advanced students in these subjects.

Cancer is arguably the most complex and challenging disease known to mankind. Over the last two-decades, significant advancements have been made in new and novel concepts of cancer nanomedicines. Therapeutic cancer vaccines may be utilized to inhibit further growth of advanced cancers and/or relapsed tumors that are refractory to conventional therapies, such as surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy.

• Presents the progress made in cancer medicines from conventional to targeted therapy
• Covers the present state-of-the-art of cancer nanomedicines and upcoming therapeutic cancer vaccination
• Contains a focus on advanced nanomaterials that are utilized for encapsulation of nucleic acid, mRNA, DNA, siRNA

Dr. Waleed Hassan Almalki is an associate professor of pharmacology at the college of pharmacy, Umm Al-Qura University, Makkah, Saudi Arabia. He earned his doctoral degree from the University of Glasgow, United Kingdom having a dissertation on ocular pharmacology. His current research is focused on the broad areas of host-virus networks in hepacivirus C disease progression as well as host-virus genes expression during oxidative stress, hepatic steatosis, fibrosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. He is also enthusiastically involved in the studies of tyrosine kinase inhibitors for the treatment of breast and colon cancer, in the Saudi population. Dr. Waleed has published many research and review articles in peer-reviewed international journals on HCV pathogenesis, treatment and drug designing as well as edited various book chapters about pathological angiogenesis, pharmacological assays and infectious disease epidemiology.
Dr. Hani Choudhry is an Associate Professor of Genomics and the Head of Cancer and Mutagenesis Unit at the King Fahd Center for Medical Research in King Abdulaziz University (KAU), Saudi Arabia. Dr. Choudhry completed his DPhil in Clinical Medicine in Prof. Sir Peter Ratcliffe (Nobel Laureate 2019)’s lab at the Wellcome Trust Center for Human Genetics, University of Oxford, UK. Dr. Choudhry has received a number of international and prestigious awards including two AACR Scholar-in-Training Award, the Susan G. Komen for the Cure Award, the ASHG/Charles J. Epstein Trainee Award for Excellence in Human Genetics Research (SF), the Professional Achievement Award and the National Cancer Research Institute (NCRI) Prize Award. He was awarded by the British Embassy and the UAE International Genetic Disorders Prevention Award- Scientific Excellence Award in GCC. Dr. Choudhry’s current scientific interests focus on developing genomic technologies, and the integration of both clinical and pathological information with data generated from high-throughput molecular techniques. His work addresses the impact of genome and epigenome heterogeneity on the biology and clinical behaviour of diseases. In addition, he is leading a number of initiatives on artificial intelligence (AI) powered genome and drug discovery.
