The new generation of nanoparticles (NPs) encompass attributes of lipids and polymers and are referred to as 'lipid-polymer hybrid nanoparticles' (LPHNPs). LPHNPs have helped shed light on the mechanisms involved in targeted and non-specific drug delivery. Research has also highlighted the opportunities and challenges faced by the use of nanomedicine as personalized therapies in oncology. Here, we review the development of LPHNPs as cancer therapeutics, focusing on the methods deployed for enhancing the targeting efficiency and applications of LPHNPs.
