Breakthroughs in the nanoparticle-mediated delivery of siRNA for breast cancer treatment.
Review in Nanomedicine (London, England), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Although breast cancer treatments have improved, challenges like tumor heterogeneity and drug resistance remain. RNA interference (RNAi), especially through small interfering RNA (siRNA), is a promising strategy to silence specific genes and improve clinical outcomes. However, the clinical translation of siRNA has been limited by barriers related to stability, biodistribution, cellular uptake, among others. Nanoparticle-based delivery systems have emerged as transformative platforms to address these limitations, enhancing siRNA protection, targeting, and intracellular release. This review discusses the major breakthroughs in nanoparticle-mediated siRNA delivery for breast cancer treatment, focusing on how innovations in nanocarrier design have enhanced siRNA stability, targeting, and therapeutic efficacy. We highlight key characteristics in RNA interference mechanisms, the evolution of computational tools for optimizing siRNA design, and the approval of RNAi-based therapies that laid the foundation for oncologic applications. Special emphasis is given to the development of lipid, polymeric, and inorganic nanoparticles engineered for efficient siRNA delivery, their role in overcoming drug resistance when combined with conventional therapies, and the current progress of clinical trials against solid tumors. By integrating nanotechnology and RNAi, these breakthroughs offer new opportunities for precise, durable, and personalized strategies in breast cancer treatment, with the potential to transform the current therapeutic landscape.
