Cancer nanomedicine represents a paradigm shift in cancer therapy, offering unprecedented opportunities for precise targeting, enhanced drug delivery, and personalized treatment strategies. At Alfa Cytology, our cancer nanomedicine development services aim to leverage the distinctive characteristics of nanoparticles to overcome the limitations of conventional cancer treatments. By engineering nanocarriers with tailored properties, we seek to optimize drug delivery, minimize side effects, and improve therapeutic outcomes across a wide range of cancer types.

Advantages of Nanovaccines

Nanovaccines offer significant advantages over conventional vaccine formulations, including prolonged release time, targeted delivery, enhanced immunogenicity and antigenic stability. Notably, nanoparticles (NPs) stand out due to their tunability, with shapes and sizes that can be customized for different applications. Their specific physicochemical properties, such as large surface area to volume ratio and controllable surface charge, make them versatile delivery vehicles for vaccine formulations. In addition, a variety of targeting molecules, including peptides, proteins, polymers, and cell-penetrating peptides, can be incorporated on the surface of NPs, which enables efficient targeting and penetration of major components in the tumor microenvironment (TME).

Our Services

RNA vaccines offer several advantages, including the simultaneous encoding of multiple antigens and full-length tumor antigens. They can be produced quickly, flexibly, and efficiently, making them ideal for personalized neoantigen vaccine preparation. Moreover, RNA vaccines have a high safety profile, as they do not integrate into the host genome. Followings are the services we offer during the RNA cancer vaccine development.
