Drug delivery method using polyphosphazene-drug conjugates
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11912829B2) discloses a method for delivering drugs to patients or living objects in need thereof. The method involves administering linear polyphosphazene-drug conjugate compounds represented by a specific chemical formula. The compounds include a spacer group (S) which can be lysine or a lysine-containing dipeptide or tripeptide. Additionally, the compounds contain a hydrophobic molecule (D) selected from docetaxel, paclitaxel, camptothecin, and (dach)Pt(II) (dach: trans±1,2-diaminocyclohexane).
The patent further elaborates on the chemical formulas and variations within the compounds, specifying different expressions and configurations. It emphasizes the importance of the spacer group (S) and the hydrophobic molecule (D) in the effectiveness of drug delivery. By utilizing these specific linear polyphosphazene-drug conjugate compounds, the method aims to enhance the targeted delivery of drugs to patients or living objects in need, potentially improving treatment outcomes and reducing side effects associated with traditional drug administration methods.
