Bladder cancer (BC) is one of the most common malignant neoplasms of the genitourinary system. Traditional BC therapies include chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy. However, limitations such as lack of specificity, cytotoxicity, and multidrug resistance pose serious challenges to the benefits of BC therapies. Consequently, current studies focus on the search for new therapeutic solutions. In recent years, there has been a growing interest in using nanotechnology in the treatment of both non-invasive (NMIBC) and invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). Nanotechnology is based on the use of both organic molecules (chitosan, liposomes) and inorganic molecules (superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles) as carriers of active substances. The main aim of such molecules is the targeted transport and prolonged retention of the drug in the target tissue, which increases the therapeutic efficacy of the active substance. This review discusses the numerous types of nanoparticles (including chitosan, polymeric nanoparticles, liposomes, and protein nanoparticles), targeting mechanisms, and approved nanotherapeutics with oncological implications in cancer treatment. We also present nanoformulation applications in phototherapy, gene therapy, and immunotherapy. Moreover, we summarise the current perspectives, advantages, and challenges in clinical translation.
