STABLE POLYMERIC MICELLE-TYPE DRUG COMPOSITION AND METHOD FOR THE PREPARATION THEREOF

摘要

A biocompatible stable composition containing a hydrophobic drug, such as paclitaxel. The composition, which forms a syringeable polymeric micellar solution in aqueous or body fluids, is a freeze-dried product comprising a hydrophobic drug, i.e. paclitaxel, and an amphiphilic block copolymer wherein a hydrophobic group having affinity or attraction with the hydrophobic drug, such as paclitaxel, is incorporated on its end.
