New Nanoparticle Based Treatment Platform Developed to Treat Deadly Thyroid Cancer

Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) is a highly life threatening form of thyroid cancer with a mortality rate of nearly 100% and an average survival time of three to five months. One promising approach to treat this type of cancer and others is RNA interference (RNAi) nanotechnology. However delivery of RNAi agents to the precise area of the tumor has been a struggle.
