Thermogelling Polymer–Platinum(IV) Conjugates for Long-Term Delivery of Cisplatin

Abstract: In this study, we suggest a novel strategy of constituting an in situ-formed hydrogel composed of polymer-platinum(IV) conjugate to realize a long-term delivery of cisplatin. A unique conjugate was designed and synthesized by covalent linking of Pt(IV) complex to the hydrophobic end of two methoxyl poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(d,l-lactide) (mPEG-PLA) copolymer chains, resulting in the formation of Bi(mPEG-PLA)-Pt(IV). The conjugate could self-assemble into micelles in water, and its concentrated solution exhib… Show more

“…These thermogels are classified as a group of soft materials which assemble due to supramolecular interactions of the polymeric blocks present . At low temperatures, the aqueous polymeric solution or sol state exists as fluids with low viscosity . When the temperature is elevated, close to body temperature, there exist a sol to gel transition where by the polymeric fluids solidifies into a hydrogel.…”

“…Recently, biodegradable thermogelling hydrogels which undergo a reversible sol-gel transition upon heating to body temperature have gained increased attention as a minimally invasive depot system for drug delivery, tissue engineering, etc. [16][17][18][19][20][21][22]. Chemical drugs, bioactive macromolecules, and even cells can be incorporated into the polymer aqueous solution at low or room temperature.…”
