Through this inspirational note, we would like to highlight the potential of nanoscaled metal-organic frameworks within the biomedical field. The unique properties of these materials that make them promising candidates for new nanomedicines are assessed here as well as the progression reached so far for combinational cancer therapies and theranostic, along with its most recent advances in nanomedicine. Finally, the perspective and challenges of these materials within this field is discussed.
