Abstract Clinical diagnostics rely heavily on the detection and quantification of cancer biomarkers. The rapid detection of cancer-specific biomarkers is of great importance in the early diagnosis of cancers and plays a crucial role in the subsequent treatments. There are several different detection techniques available today for detecting cancer biomarkers. Because of target-related conformational alterations, high stability, and target variety, aptamers have received considerable interest as a biosensing system component. To date, several sensitivity-enhancement strategies have been used with a broad spectrum of nanomaterials and nanoparticles (NPs) to improve the limit and sensitivity of analyte detection in the construction of innovative aptasensors. The present article aims to outline the research developments on the potential of DNAzymes-based aptasensors for cancer biomarker detection. Graphical Abstract
