Amphiphilic polymeric materials

摘要

The invention is based in part on the discovery of polymers that can complex with certain types of therapeutic drugs and transport those drugs across cell membranes in cell cultures with demonstrable therapeutic activity. The polymers are designed to overcome some of the known problems of liposomes as drug carriers. The polymers can be used in the development of physiologically stable, non-leaking, non-immunogenic, efficacious and safe targetable drug delivery systems (e.g., for delivery of anti-HIV or anticancer drugs).
