Zwitterionic polymer-dexamethasone conjugates penetrate and protect cartilage from inflammation
Improving the pharmacokinetics of intra-articularly injected therapeutics is a major challenge in treating joint disease. Small molecules and biologics are often cleared from the joint within hours, which greatly reduces their therapeutic efficacy. Furthermore, they are often injected at high doses,...
