Abstract: In recent years, the continuous development of nanoscience and nanotechnology makes the application of nanomaterials and related technologies in medical research and clinical therapy into a new stage, especially in the field of cancer treatment. Currently, it is proven that some nanoscale drugs which are designed to target tumor cells and tumor tissue can significantly improve the practical effect in cancer treatment. What’s more important is that some other nanomaterials which are still in the basic research stage exhibit potential as clinic drug, particularly in the inhibition of tumor metastasis.
