Cancer continues to be a major global health issue, impacting millions of individuals annually. Although traditional cancer treatments have improved, there is a rising demand for alternative and complementary medicines that may provide advantages with fewer side effects. Polysaccharides, which are complex sugars found in plants, fungi, and microbes, are considered for cancer research and treatment because of their many biological effects, compatibility with living organisms, and low toxicity. In recent years, the area of polysaccharide-based cancer treatment has seen substantial expansion. This book provides a thorough summary of the present status of research and advancements in polysaccharide-based cancer treatment. It delves into the interdisciplinary and rapidly evolving field of biomedical research that intersects with pharmaceutics, oncology, and materials science. There is a growing focus on treatment methods that are both more sustainable and safer, in line with the ideas of green chemistry and personalized medicine. This book documents a crucial stage in the advancement of various fields, including materials science, biotechnology, and clinical oncology, offering new therapies that are better aligned with the human body and the environment.
