With the booming development of nanotechnology, nanomedicines have made considerable progress in the pharmaceutical field. However, the number of nanodrugs approved for clinical treatment is very limited. The main obstacles stem from the complexity of nanomedicine composition, tumor heterogeneity, complexity and incomplete understanding of nanotumor interactions, uncontrollable scaling, high production costs, and uncertainty of regulations and standards. This review article described the current stage of nanomedicines and highlighted the challenges, strategies, and opportunities for clinical translation of nanomedicines.
