Targeting drug delivery has been a focus of researchers in recent years for cancer and other diseases. Many approaches such as liposomes, exosomes, nanoparticles (magnetic), encapsulation etc. have been developed and investigated for their clinical applications. But disadvantages linked to these therapies limit them to be used in clinical settings. Cell based drug delivery systems has emerged as an alternative for these therapies. Among cell types, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) proved to a potential cell type for research due to its many characteristics including low immunogenicity, chemotaxis and homing to tumor sites which are considered mandatory for drug delivery. This chapter focuses on the challenges and opportunities in using MSCs as therapeutic carrier of drugs in different ailments.
