Resumo: Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and, despite medical advances in the development of new anticancer therapies, drug resistance, complicated side effects and poor efficacy remain a major public health problem. To breakdown the antisuppressive tumour strategies and to improve drug efficiency, nanomedicine is increasingly being used in anticancer therapy studies. Different in vitro experimental models and innovative approaches have been used in cancer research. In this aspect, 3D spheroids have become an attractive tool, overcoming many of the issues associated with using 2D models. Thus, in this review, an overview on 3D spheroids is provided, focusing on their use in the cancer field as a promising platform for nanomedicine studies. Thereafter, we highlight the main drug delivery systems currently developed and their applicability in 3D cell cultures.
