In oncology, mRNA–lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) have been used either to achieve intratumoural expression of immune-stimulating cytokine combinations or as cancer vaccines, and new strategies are in development to enable the selective delivery of payloads into cancer cells previously considered unreachable. The authors of this Review present various approaches for delivering mRNA–LNPs to tumours and discuss improvements that will improve the selective targeting of cancer cells with mRNA–LNPs.
