On page 1203, a novel blended nanoparticle (NP) system for the delivery of anticancer drugs and its surprisingly high efficacy for cancer chemotherapy by blending a targeting polymer folic acid‐poly(ethylene glycol)‐b‐poly(lactide‐co‐glycolide) (FA‐PEG‐b‐PLGA) and a miscible structurally similar polymer D‐α‐tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate‐poly(lactide‐co‐glycolide) (TPGS‐PLGA) are reported by X. Zeng, L. Huang, L. Mei, and colleagues. This blended NP system can be achieved through a simple and effective nanoprecipitation technique, possessing unique properties.
