• Globally, cancer is a serious health problem. It is unfortunate that current anti-cancer strategies are insufficiently specific and damage the normal tissues. There’s urgent need for development of new anti-cancer strategies. More recently, increasing attention has been paid to the new application of ferroptosis and nano materials in cancer research. Ferroptosis, a condition characterized by excessive reactive oxygen species-induced lipid peroxidation, as a new programmed cell death mode, exists in the process of a number of diseases, including cancers, neurodegenerative disease, cerebral hemorrhage, liver disease, and renal failure. There is growing evidence that inducing ferroptosis has proven to be an effective strategy against a variety of chemo-resistant cancer cells. Nano-drug delivery system based on nanotechnology provides a highly promising platform with the benefits of precise control of drug release and reduced toxicity and side effects. This paper reviews the latest advances of combination therapy strategies based on biomedical nanotechnology induced ferroptosis for cancer therapeutics. Given the new chances and challenges in this emerging area, we need more attention to the combination of nanotechnology and ferroptosis in the treatment of cancer in the future.
