:Ovarian cancer poses a formidable health challenge for women globally, necessitating innovative therapeutic approaches. This review provides a succinct summary of the current research status on lipid-based nanocarriers in the context of ovarian cancer treatment. Lipid-based nanocarriers, including liposomes, solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs), and nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs), offer a promising solution for delivering anticancer drugs with enhanced therapeutic effectiveness and reduced adverse effects. Their versatility in transporting both hydrophobic and hydrophilic medications makes them well-suited for a diverse range of anticancer drugs. Active targeting techniques like ligand-conjugation and surface modifications have been used to reduce off-target effects and achieve tumour-specific medication delivery. The study explores formulation techniques and adjustments meant to enhance drug stability and encapsulation in these nanocarriers. Encouraging results from clinical trials and preclinical investigations underscore the promise of lipid-based nanocarriers in ovarian cancer treatment, providing optimism for improved patient outcomes. Notwithstanding these advancements, challenges related to clearance, long-term stability, and scalable manufacturing persist. Successfully translating lipidbased nanocarriers into clinical practice requires addressing these hurdles. To sum up, lipidbased nanocarriers are a viable strategy to improve the effectiveness of therapy for ovarian cancer. With their more focused medication administration and lower systemic toxicity, they may completely change the way ovarian cancer is treated and increase patient survival rates. Lipidbased nanocarriers need to be further researched and developed to become a therapeutically viable treatment for ovarian cancer.
