Nanotechnology provides numerous advantages in treating chronic human diseases through the site-specific and target-oriented delivery of precise medicines. There have recently been several notable applications of nanomedicine (chemotherapeutic agents, biological agents, immunotherapeutic agents, and so on) in treating various diseases. World Health Organization says CVDs kill more people than other causes, with over 17.9 million deaths yearly. The American Heart Association targets a 20% reduction in cardiovascular disease and stroke deaths by 2020, focusing on factors such as physical action, nutrition, obesity, smoking, blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar. An increasing mortality rate increases people's burden, which can drive demand for novel nanotechnology drug delivery procedures that are more effective than conventional medicine and thus push the general market to grow.

Drivers: Adoption of nanotechnology drug delivery in infection treatment and heart disease
The main advantages of nanoparticles are improved bioavailability by improving liquefied dissolvability, rising resistance period in the body, increasing partial life for authorization/escalating explicitness for its linked receptors, and directing the drug to a specific part in the body (its site of action). This reduces the required medication and prescribed toxicity, allowing for the safe transfer of toxic therapeutic drugs and protecting non-target tissues and cells from severe side effects. It is increasingly being used in several treatments involving drug transporter frameworks and the passage of organ barriers, such as blood-cerebrum obstruction, cell film, and others.
Nanotechnology is also being used to improve the delivery of heart disease drug treatments. Even though inflammatory changes increase vascular permeability and retention of nanoscale molecules, targeted drug delivery to diseased heart tissue is possible. Coronary artery disease is the gradual formation of plaque on the major arteries, which can lead to heart failure. And since disease development occurs at the cellular level, nanomedicine can be used as a valid treatment. Current treatment for coronary artery disease is primarily based on statins, which are known to have dose-dependent side effects that limit their use. Nanotechnology could enable statins to be delivered to the site of need, reducing toxicity to other cells.
Considering the increasing strains of drug-resistant bacteria, the use of nanotechnology for drug delivery is also being applied to infection treatment. Though the increased permeability and retention effect is most associated with cancer treatments, there are shared pathophysiological pathways that suggest the impact could be used to treat infections. During an infection, vasodilation occurs quickly, increasing capillary permeability. Although a malfunctioning lymphatic system causes the retention effect in cancer tumors, studies have revealed that rapid lymphatic clearance of small molecules during infection does not occur as expected.
The disease is characterized by dysfunctional lymphatic drainage. Nonantibiotics will use this effect to improve infection treatment by combining nanoparticles with antimicrobial therapies and nanosized biological molecules for improved antibiotic drug delivery
Furthermore, Aging has been repeatedly identified as a critical risk factor for neurological disorders. As a result, the growing geriatric population increases the number of people suffering from various brain illnesses. According to a research study published in the Journal of the Alzheimer's Association, the prevalence of Alzheimer's dementia rises drastically with age, with 3% of persons aged 65 to 74, 17% of those aged 75 to 84, and 32% of people aged 85 or older suffering from the disease. Thus, the rising prevalence of genetic and cardiovascular diseases, advancements in nanoscale diagnostic technologies, and growing demand for personalized therapies are all driving the expansion of the nanotechnology drug delivery market.
Restraint: High cost of nanotechnology drug delivery technique
Price is a significant challenge for companies developing nanotherapeutics. Nanodrugs are far more expensive to produce than traditional medicines. These diseconomies of scale result in significantly higher selling prices or acquisition costs for hospitals, impeding the everyday success of nanomedicines. The increased cost-effectiveness of nanotherapeutics can offset the high acquisition costs. A high acquisition cost may be a severe barrier to reimbursement in European countries where medicines are selected and funded from public sources based on rational selection. High-priced nanomedicines have a very low chance of reaching the market and, thus, the patient in these countries.
Opportunity:
Nanoscale is gaining importance in drug delivery

The drug-conjugated nanoparticles can eventually recognize the site, attach to the target, and enter the cell via receptor-mediated endocytosis. Then NPs can controllably release drugs to cure diseases. Growing research and development activities in nanoparticle analysis, financial funding from public-private organizations, and increased R&D shifting to China by global drug and biopharmaceutical organizations are growing market interest. The increasing annual spending of the biopharmaceutical industry worldwide pushes the acceptance of nanoparticles. Further, the rising application of nanoparticles in cancer therapy, Diagnostic testing, HIV and AIDS treatment, and nutraceutical delivery is driving the growth of this segment.
