Abstract
Extracellular vesicles are nano-sized vesicles surrounded by lipid bilayers, and all cells release them to the extracellular environment for communication. Extracellular vesicles consist of molecules with various biological activities and can play essential roles as therapeutics, so they attract much attention as next-generation modalities to treat various diseases. As extracellular vesicles are cell-derived nanovesicles, they are favorable to be developed as therapeutics, but they also have limitations. In addition, there are a number of things to consider in terms of manufacturing, quality control, non-clinical studies, and clinical trials during the development of extracellular vesicle-based therapeutics. Meanwhile, as much attention has been paid to the potentials of extracellular vesicles as therapeutics, many biopharmaceutical companies are trying to develop extracellular vesicle-based therapeutics. This review will introduce the advantages and limitations of extracellular vesicles as therapeutics. In addition, it will cover things to consider during developing extracellular vesicle-based therapeutics and development cases of extracellular vesicle-based therapeutics.
