  • Asymmetric bifunctional silyl monomers and particles thereof as prodrugs and delivery vehicles for pharmaceutical, chemical and biological agents
    Patent number: 9913916
    Abstract: Asymmetric bifunctional silyl (ABS) monomers comprising covalently linked pharmaceutical, chemical and biological agents are described. These agents can also be covalently bound via the silyl group to delivery vehicles for delivering the agents to desired targets or areas. Also described are delivery vehicles which contain ABS monomers comprising covalently linked agents and to vehicles that are covalently linked to the ABS monomers. The silyl modifications described herein can modify properties of the agents and vehicles, thereby providing desired solubility, stability, hydrophobicity and targeting.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 3, 2016
    Date of Patent: March 13, 2018
    Assignee: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
    Inventors: Joseph M. DeSimone, Mathew Finniss, Mary Napier, Ashish Pandya, Matthew Parrott
