  • Patent number: 11918657
    Abstract: Low-generation dendrimers containing a high density of surface hydroxyl groups, and methods of synthesis thereof are provided. In particular, oligo ethylene glycol (OEG)-like dendrimers with a high surface functional groups at relatively low generations (e.g. ˜120 hydroxyls in the third generation, with a size of just 1-2 nm) is described. Dendrimer formulations including one or more prophylactic, therapeutic, and/or diagnostic agents, and methods of use thereof are also described. The formulations are suitable for topical, enteral, and/or parenteral delivery for treating one or more diseases, conditions, and injuries in the eye, the brain and nervous system (CNS), particularly those associated with pathological activation of microglia and astrocytes.

  • Publication number: 20240058459
    Abstract: Dendrimer compositions and methods for the treatment of one or more inflammatory and/or angiogenic diseases and/or disorders of the eye include hydroxyl-terminated dendrimers complexed or conjugated with one or more active agents for the treatment or alleviation of one or more symptoms of the diseases of the eye, and/or for diagnosing the diseases and/or disorders of the eye. The dendrimers may include one or more ethylene diamine-core poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) hydroxyl-terminated generation-4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10 dendrimers. The active agents may be VEGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors including sunitinib or analogues thereof. Preferably, the compositions are suitable for administration via a systemic route to target activated microglia/macrophages in retina/choroid.

  • Publication number: 20230398241
    Abstract: Compositions and methods for detecting, monitoring and imaging inflammatory sites or tumors in a subject have been developed. Compositions of hydroxyl-terminated dendrimers conjugated to radionuclide(s) via ether linkages are provided for both imaging and radiotherapy (tumors). Methods for the non-invasive and specific positron emission tomography (PET) imaging or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of dendrimer conjugated to one or more imaging agents in a subject in vivo are also provided. The methods selectively deliver dendrimer conjugated to radionuclides or MRI contrast agents to reactive microglia or reactive immune cells in tumors in the recipient. In some embodiments, the dendrimers conjugated to imaging agents also deliver targeted radiotherapy agents to a tumor, and/or deliver additional diagnostic, therapeutic or prophylactic agents to reactive microglia in the recipient. Methods of making dendrimers conjugated to imaging agents are also described.

  • Publication number: 20230233696
    Abstract: It has been established that dendrimers conjugated or complexed with the carbohydrate triantennary N-Acetylgalactosamine (triantennary-?-GalNAc) selectively accumulate within hepatocyte cells and selectively deliver therapeutic, prophylactic or diagnostic agents to the liver. Compositions of dendrimers complexed with triantennary-?-GalNAc and one or more agents to prevent, treat or diagnose a liver injury, liver disease or liver disorder in a subject in need thereof, and methods of use thereof, have been developed. The compositions are particularly suited for treating and/or ameliorating one or more symptoms of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and liver cancer, with decreased toxicity.
