Cervical cancer: Novel treatment strategies offer renewed optimism.

Cervical cancer poses a significant global public health issue, primarily affecting women, and stands as one of the four most prevalent cancers affecting woman globally, which includes breast cancer, colorectal cancer, lung cancer and cervical cancer. Almost every instance of cervical cancer is associated with infections caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). Prevention of this disease hinges on screening and immunization of the patients, yet disparities in cervical cancer occurrence exist between developed and developing nations. Multiple factors contribute to cervical cancer, including sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), reproductive and hormonal influences, genetics, and host-related factors. Preventive programs, lifestyle improvements, smoking cessation, and prompt precancerous lesion treatment can reduce the occurrence of cervical cancer. The persistency and recurrence of the cases are inherited even after the innovative treatments available for cervical cancer. For patient's ineligible for curative surgery or radiotherapy, palliative chemotherapy remains the standard treatment. Novel treatment strategies are emerging to combat the limited effectiveness of chemotherapy. Nanocarriers offer the promise of concurrent chemotherapeutic drug delivery as a beacon of hope in cervical cancer research. The primary aim of this review study is to contribute to a thorough understanding of cervical cancer, fostering awareness and informed decision-making and exploring novel treatment methods such as nanocarriers for the treatment of cervical cancer. This manuscript delves into cutting-edge approaches, exploring the potential of nanocarriers and other innovative treatments. Our study underscores the critical need for global awareness, early intervention, and enhanced treatment options. Novel strategies, such as nanocarriers, offer renewed optimism in the battle against cervical cancer. This research provides compelling evidence for the investigation of these novel therapeutic approaches within the medical field. Cervical cancer remains a formidable adversary, but with ongoing advancements and unwavering commitment, we move closer to a future where it is a preventable and treatable disease, even in the most underserved regions.
