Chemotherapeutic treatments focusing on cisplatin, ovarian cancer, testicular cancer, breast cancer, colon cancer, lung cancer etc. seen in adults and children. Cisplatin is an antineoplastic agent frequently used in cancer types. Drug resistance to cisplatin has an effect on the success of the treatment. After cisplatin-administered treatments, patients may experience cisplatin-induced side effects of various toxic dimensions, such as nausea, nephrotoxicity, cardiotoxicity, hepatotoxicity, and neurotoxicity. As a result of the literature review, various studies have been carried out to reduce the side effects and toxic effects of cisplatin and other anticancer molecules without interfering with their activities. In this study, we planned to prepare a cisplatin-loaded chitosan nanoparticle formulation based on the ionic gelation method using chitosan and tripolyphosphate (TPP) with the information obtained from the literature. In this study, chitosan nanoparticles containing the same concentration of cisplatin were applied to MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell lines obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC). As a result, biocompatible nanoparticles with similar cytotoxic effects cause less side effects in other cells and tissues than other nanoparticles.
