N2 - Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains one of the deadliest cancers worldwide, characterized by late diagnosis, aggressive progression, and poor response to conventional monotherapies. Combination therapies have emerged as a promising approach to overcome multidrug resistance (MDR), enhance efficacy, and target the complex tumor microenvironment (TME). Nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems (DDSs) have gained significant attention for their ability to co-deliver multiple agents with controlled release profiles. This review comprehensively examines nanoparticle-based platforms developed for PDAC combination therapies, focusing on small-molecule drugs. The systems discussed are drawn from studies published between 2005 and 2025.
