A library of novel amphiphiles were designed and synthesised, towards self-assembly based drug delivery for the treatment of breast cancer. The amphiphiles were formulated into liposomes of varying size and shape, and showed promising potential for drug delivery. Active targeting of breast cancer tumours was also explored with promising results.
