Polymers for extended-release administration

Developing strategies to deliver the required dose of therapeutics into target tissues and cell populations within the body is a principal aim of controlled release and drug delivery. Specifically, there is an interest in developing formulations that can achieve drug concentrations within the therap...

description Developing strategies to deliver the required dose of therapeutics into target tissues and cell populations within the body is a principal aim of controlled release and drug delivery. Specifically, there is an interest in developing formulations that can achieve drug concentrations within the therapeutic window, for extended periods of time, with tunable release profiles, and with minimal complication and distress for the patient. To date, drug delivery systems have been developed to serve as depots, triggers, and carriers for therapeutics including small molecules, biologics, and cell-based therapies. Notably, the efficacy of these systems is intricately tied to the manner in which they are administered. For example, systemic and oral routes of administration are common, but both can result in rapid clearance from the organism. Towards this end, what formulation and administration route strategies are available to prolong the bioavailability of therapeutics? Here, we discuss historical and modern drug delivery systems, with the intention of exploring how properties including formulation, administration route and chemical structure influence the ability to achieve extended-release drug release profiles within the body.
