摘要:
The invention provides a method for preparing a 1-benzotriazolylcarbonate ester of a water-soluble and non-peptidic polymer by reacting a terminal hydroxyl group of a water-soluble and non-peptidic polymer with di(1-benzotriazolyl)carbonate in the presence of an amine base and an organic solvent. The polymer backbone can be poly(ethylene glycol). The 1-benzotriazolylcarbonate ester can then be reacted directly with a biologically active agent to form a biologically active polymer conjugate or reacted with an amino acid, such as lysine, to form an amino acid derivative.

The invention provides polymer conjugates of opioid antagonists comprising a polymer, such as poly(ethylene glycol), covalently attached to an opioid antagonist. The linkage between the polymer and the opioid antagonist is preferably hydrolytically stable. The invention also includes a method of treating one or more side effects associated with the use of opioid analgesics, such as constipation, nausea, or pruritus, by administering a polymer conjugate of the invention.
摘要:
The present invention provides compositions comprising an opioid agonist and a water-soluble, non-peptidic polymer-opioid antagonist conjugate. Among other things, dosage forms and methods of administering the dosage forms are also provided.
摘要:
Conjugates of a GLP-I moiety may be covalently attached to one or more water-soluble polymers. For instance, a GLP-I polymer conjugate may include a GLP-I moiety releasably attached at its N-terminus to a water-soluble polymer. The GLP-I polymer conjugate may include a GLP-I moiety covalently attached to a water-soluble polymer, wherein the GLP-I moiety possesses an N-methyl substituent. The GLP-I polymer conjugate may include a GLP-I moiety covalently attached at a polymer attachment site to a water-soluble polymer, wherein the GLP-I moiety is glycosylated at a site separate from the polymer attachment site.
摘要:
An activated, substantially water-soluble poly(ethylene glycol) is provided having of a linear or branched poly(ethylene glycol) backbone and at least one terminus linked to the backbone through a hydrolytically stable linkage, wherein the terminus is branched and has proximal reactive groups. The free reactive groups are capable of reacting with active moieties in a biologically active agent such as a protein or peptide thus forming conjugates between the activated (polyethylene glycol) and the biologically active agent.

Provided herein are water-soluble prodrugs, compositions comprising such prodrugs, and related methods of making and administering the same. The prodrugs of the invention comprise a water-soluble polymer having three or more arms, at least three of which are typically covalently attached to an active agent, e.g., a small molecule. The conjugates of the invention provide an optimal balance of polymer size and structure for achieving improved drug loading, since the conjugates of the invention possess three or more active agents releasably attached to a multi-armed water-soluble polymer. The prodrugs of the invention are therapeutically effective, and exhibit improved properties in-vivo when compared to unmodified parent drug.
