摘要:
Methods of modifying the rate of systemic absorption of a drug administered to a subject by a pulmonary route, the method comprising covalently conjugating a hydrophilic polymer to a drug, wherein the drug has a half-life of elimination from the lung of less than about 180 minutes, to form a drug-polymer conjugate, wherein the drug-polymer conjugate has a net hydrophilic character and a weight average molecular weight of from about 50 to about 20,000 Daltons, and wherein the half-life of elimination from the lung of the drug-polymer conjugate is at least about 1.5-fold greater than the half-life of elimination from the lung of the drug, wherein the half-life of elimination from the lung is measured by bronchoalveolar lavage followed by assaying residual lung material.

摘要:
The invention provides small molecule drugs that are chemically modified by covalent attachment of a water-soluble oligomer. A compound of the invention, when administered by any of a number of administration routes, exhibits characteristics that are different from the characteristics of the small molecule drug not attached to the water-soluble oligomer.
摘要:
The invention provides opioid agonists covalently bound to a water-soluble oligomer having reduced potential for substance abuse and uses thereof. The compounds of the invention possess altered pharmacokinetic profiles relative to the opioid agonists alone, but are not subject to the risk of physical tampering that allows for the recovery and abuse of the opioid agonist associated with certain alternative delivery formulations.
摘要:
The invention provides various methods comprising the administration of a CYP2D6 bioactive drug covalently bound to a water-soluble oligomer. Metabolism of CYP2D6 bioactive drug conjugates is diverted from CYP2D6 to alternative pathways, and the conjugates may therefore be utilized to alleviate the problems associated with interpopulation variation resulting from the genetic polymorphism in the CYP2D6 gene.

摘要:
Provided are methods for reducing the addiction potential and/or reducing one or more CNS-side effects related to the administration of an opioid analgesic drug by administering the opioid analgesic drug in the form of an oligomeric polyethylene glycol conjugate compound. The compounds provided demonstrate notably reduced potential for substance abuse, and possess altered pharmacokinetic profiles relative to the opioid agonists alone, but are not subject to the risk of physical tampering that allows for the recovery and abuse of the opioid agonist associated with certain alternative delivery formulations.
