Abstract
Combinatorial drug delivery for advanced stage cancer is being widely studied and utilized in the clinical as well as research setups. They have become an undeterring part of the treatment strategies employed. They include payloads in the form of either two or more drugs or a combination of a chemo- or gene therapeutic moiety. Numerous carbon-based nanocarriers such as carbon nanotube, graphene derivatives, and dendrimers have been explored to address this matter as a potential delivery platform. These nanocarriers can be functionalized with the help of single or multiple polymers by layering and thus help in targeting and biocompatibility. This chapter illustrates the applications of such carbon-based moieties as a single carrier for multiple payloads, challenges, and future perspectives thereof.
