Abstract (original English)
Cancer has rapidly emerged as a leading global cause of premature mortality, with significant economic implications projected to reach USD 25.2 trillion from 2020 to 2050. Among the various types of cancer, primary bone cancers, though uncommon, are projected to see nearly 4000 new cases diagnosed in the United States in 2024. The complexity of treating bone cancer arises from its rarity, diversity, and the challenges associated with surgical interventions, metastatic spread, and post-operative complications. Advancements in bone tissue engineering (BTE) have introduced innovative therapeutic approaches to promote bone regeneration and address tumor recurrence. This interdisciplinary field integrates biomaterials, scaffolds, and gene therapy, utilizing technologies such as 3D bioprinting to create custom scaffolds that facilitate cellular activities essential for tissue regeneration. Recent developments in biodegradable, bioactive materials aim to enhance the biocompatibility and effectiveness of scaffolds, while nanotechnology presents promising avenues for targeted drug delivery and improved therapeutic outcomes. This review outlines the current landscape of BTE, highlighting scaffold fabrication techniques, the advantages of incorporating stem cell and gene therapies, and future directions, including the integration of artificial intelligence in scaffold design for personali
