The present disclosure relates to a method for the sustained release of a drug, comprising the steps of: (a) preparing a biocompatible polymer having a hydrophobic group conjugated to the biocompatible polymer; and (b) contacting the biocompatible polymer to the drug for adsorbing the drug to the hydrophobic group of the biocompatible polymer, thereby obtaining a drug delivery carrier for the sustained release of the drug; wherein the drug is a protein, a peptide or a non-hydrophilic chemical drug; wherein when the drug adsorbed to the hydrophobic group of the biocompatible polymer is administered to a mammal, it shows a sustained release profile in the mammal. The drug delivery carrier according to the present disclosure having the hydrophobic group conjugated to the biocompatible polymer may be useful for adsorption of synthetic drugs having very low solubility in water. Further, it may regulate discharge rate of adsorbed drugs by regulating a portion of hydrophobic groups conjugated to the polymeric material. Thus, the present disclosure provides a broad-spectrum platform technology applicable to new hydrophobic synthetic drugs to be developed in the future as well as those that have been developed already but face difficulties due to low bioavailability. |
