The Cover Feature highlights the importance of drug solid‐state properties for optimized pharmaceutical activity in terms of ex‐ and in vivo stability prior to reaching the targeted cell. For instance, whatever the administration route (e.g., enteral, parenteral), stabilized nanocrystals efficiently cross the extracellular matrix to the cancer cell through its membrane. More information can be found in the Review by Yohann Corvis et al. on page 8 in Issue 1, 2019 (DOI: 10.1002/cmdc.201800612).
