 Since the early 1990s, abstract nanoparticle drug delivery systems have been used in the clinic, with newer generations of nanoparticles emerging to perform additional delivery functions and enable treatment via new therapeutic modalities. Many of these new generation nanoparticles have reached clinical trials and been approved for various indications. A three-year update on the current clinical landscape of nanoparticle drug delivery systems is provided, highlighting newly approved nanomedicines, providing a status update on previous clinical trials, and introducing new technologies that have recently entered the clinic.
