  • Patent number: 7511023
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an anticancer drug-chitosan complex forming self-aggregates and the preparation method thereof. More precisely, the present invention relates to the anticancer drug-chitosan complex forming self-aggregates in aqueous media composed of a hydrophobic anticancer agent and a hydrophilic chitosan, and the preparation method thereof. The anticancer drug-chitosan complex of the present invention not only works selectively against target tumor tissue but also continues to release the medicine over a long period of time. Besides, the anticancer drug-chitosan complex could have greater amount of drug by adding the anticancer drug into self-aggregates, which is generally limited by chemical bond. Therefore, the anticancer drug-chitosan complex of the present invention can be effectively used for the cancer chemotherapy.

  • Publication number: 20080008755
    Abstract: Disclosed are a pharmaceutical formulation characterized in that hydrophobic anticancer drugs are incorporated into a cholanic acid-chitosan complex and a preparation method thereof, and more particularly, the cholanic acid-chitosan complex composing of hydrophobic cholanic acid and hydrophilic chitosan forms self-aggregates in an aquatic environment. The pharmaceutical formulation characterized in that hydrophobic anticancer drugs are incorporated into a cholanic acid-chitosan complex, wherein the cholanic acid-chitosan complex forms self-aggregates, prolongs the drug release period, enhances the selectivity of the complex for tumor tissue, and greatly increases drug loading content when a drug is incorporated into the self-aggregates, compared to chemical bonding, which limits drug incorporation. Thus, the pharmaceutical formulation of the present invention is useful for anticancer chemotherapy.
