  • Patent number: 9598503
    Abstract: Processes for precipitating a polymer from a polymer-containing fluid are disclosed, which include providing a vessel housing a medium that provides one or more precipitation surfaces. A polymer-containing fluid, e.g., a polymer solution, dispersion or mixed solution/dispersion, and an anti-solvent can be introduced into the vessel so as to cause precipitation of at least a portion of the polymer on at least one of the precipitation surfaces. In some embodiments, the polymer contains one or more cyclic oligosaccharide moieties, such as one or more cyclodextrin moieties (e.g., ?-cyclodextrin, ?-cyclodextrin, and ?-cyclodextrin). The polymer can be any of a linear or branched polymer. The polymer can be any of polycation, a polyanion, or a non-ionic polymer. Also disclosed herein are precipitation surfaces with polymer precipitated thereon.

  • Patent number: 9550860
    Abstract: The present invention relates to novel compositions of therapeutic cyclodextrin containing polymeric compounds designed as a carrier for small molecule therapeutics delivery and pharmaceutical compositions thereof. These cyclodextrin-containing polymers improve drug stability and solubility, and reduce toxicity of the small molecule therapeutic when used in vivo. Furthermore, by selecting from a variety of linker groups and targeting ligands the polymers present methods for controlled delivery of the therapeutic agents. The invention also relates to methods of treating subjects with the therapeutic compositions described herein. The invention further relates to methods for conducting pharmaceutical business comprising manufacturing, licensing, or distributing kits containing or relating to the polymeric compounds described herein.
