Abstract: A heterobifunctional poly(ethylene glycol) is provided having a hydrolytically degradable linkage, a first terminus comprising an acrylate group, and a second terminus comprising a target such as a protein or pharmaceutical agent or a reactive moiety capable of coupling to a target. Hydrogels can be prepared. The hydrogels can be used as a carrier for a protein or a pharmaceutical agent that can be readily released in a controlled fashion.

Abstract: A degradable PEG hydrogel is described that, upon hydrolysis, releases conjugates of substantially non-peptidic polymers and biologically active molecules. For example, PEG and protein conjugates can be released in vivo from the hydrogels for therapeutic application.
Abstract: Biologically active drug polymer derivatives, namely peptides or protein derivatives, are useful medicaments and are represented by the generic formula: RO—(CH2—CH2O)n—(CO)—NH—X—(CO)—NH—Z wherein R represents a lower alkyl group, n is an integer between 25 and 250, X when combined with adjcacent NH and CO groups represents a dipeptide residue, and Z when combined with the adjacent group represents a biologically active peptide or protein.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of microparticles, with an extremely high encapsulation rate, comprising a water-soluble substance in a biodegradable polymer, said water-soluble substance and said biodegradable polymer being first incorporated in an organic liquid phase comprising at least one organic non-water miscible solvent. The organic phase is poured into an aqueous liquid phase having a volume which is sufficient to dissolve said organic solvent, said aqueous phase containing a surfactant, the resulting organic-aqueous phase being homogenised in order to perform in one single step the microparticle formation and the organic solvent removal. The thus obtained microparticles show surprisingly good agent retention qualities.

Abstract: This invention relates to hydrolytically degradable gels of crosslinked poly(ethylene) glycol (PEG) structures. Addition of water causes these crosslinked structures to swell and become hydrogels. The hydrogels can be prepared by reacting two different PEG derivatives containing functional moietes at the chain ends that react with each other to form new covalent linkages between polymer chains. The PEG derivatives are chosen to provide covalent linkages within the crosslinked structure that are hydrolytically degradable. Hydrolytic degradation can provide for dissolution of the gel components and for controlled release of trapped molecules, including drugs. Reageants other than PEG can be avoided. The hydrolysis rates can be controlled by varying atoms adjacent to the hydrolytically degradable functional groups to provide substantially precise control for drug delivery in vivo.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a non crosslinked block polymer. It also relates to a process for the preparation thereof and to the use thereof particularly in pharmaceutical compositions. The block polymer according to the invention contains sequences of polyethylene glycol linked to sequences of polyester and/or polycarbonate. The polyester sequences are selected in particular from polyfumarate, polymaleate and polysuccinate sequences.

Abstract: The present intention relates to an implant for the controlled release of at least one pharmaceutically active principle comprising a core containing at least one active principle and a sheath surrounding said core, wherein said sheath is composed of at least one polymeric film applied around said core. It also relates to a process for the preparation of such an implant, characterised by the production of a core containing at least one active principle, preparation of at least one polymeric film, application of the polymeric film(s) around said core by juxtaposition and/or superposition thereof, and sterilisation of the implant thus obtained.
