  • Patent number: 7985424
    Abstract: Dendritic polymers with enhanced amplification and interior functionality are disclosed. These dendritic polymers are made by use of fast, reactive ring-opening chemistry (or other fast reactions) combined with the use of branch cell reagents in a controlled way to rapidly and precisely build dendritic structures, generation by generation, with cleaner chemistry, often single products, lower excesses of reagents, lower levels of dilution, higher capacity method, more easily scaled to commercial dimensions, new ranges of materials, and lower cost. The dendritic compositions prepared have novel internal functionality, greater stability (e.g., thermal stability and less or no reverse Michael's reaction), and reach encapsulation surface densities at lower generations. Unexpectedly, these reactions of polyfunctional branch cell reagents with polyfunctional cores do not create cross-linked materials.

  • Publication number: 20090324742
    Abstract: The present invention concerns poly(etherhydroxylamine) PEHAM dendritic polymers wherein they function as excipients for the enhancement of water solubility of poorly water soluble (hydrophobic) Active Materials or enhancement of oil solubility of poorly oil soluble (hydrophilic) Active Materials. These dendritic polymers can have Active Materials associated with them by one or more of the following: (a) by adsorption onto the surface or (b) encapsulation into the interior of the dendritic polymers or (c) a mixture of both where these interactions are driven by one or more of the following (i) electrostatic attraction, (ii) hydrogen bonding between dendritic polymers and Active Material and (iii) hydrophobic or hydrophilic interactions or mixtures of these interactions. Additionally, these associated Active Materials can be associated with dendritic polymers through chemical bonding to the surface or to internal functionalities (IF) of PEHAM dendritic polymers or both.

  • Publication number: 20090012033
    Abstract: The present invention concerns core-shell tecto (dendritic polymers) that are associated with biologically active materials (such as nucleic acids for use for RNAi and in transfection). Also included are formulations for their use. The constructs are useful for the delivery of drugs to an animal or plant and may be in vivo, in vitro or ex vivo.

  • Publication number: 20040028747
    Abstract: Drug particles which are essentially crystalline and have a mean particle size below about 2 microns, when dispersed in water, are described. When added to an aqueous medium at 25-95% of the equilibrium solubility of the drug substance, the drug particles show complete dissolution, as characterized by a 95% reduction in turbidity, in less than 5 minutes. Using a controlled precipitation process to prepare such drug particles is also described. Such drug particles exhibit an enhanced dissolution rate and better stability as compared to particles prepared according to processes described in the prior art.

  • Publication number: 20040028746
    Abstract: Particles having a plurality of crystalline domains are described. Each crystalline domain is oriented differently than any of the adjacent domains and comprises a drug substance. A plurality of interfacial regions surround the crystalline domains, each interfacial region comprising at least one stabilizer. A process used to prepare the particles of the present invention is also described. The particles of the present invention exhibit relatively fast dissolution times as compared to particles prepared by processes described in the prior art.

  • Publication number: 20030133987
    Abstract: A method for producing micron-sized or submicron-sized drugs is disclosed, which comprises preparing a template emulsion comprising water and a templating agent; preparing a drug-containing mixture comprising a drug substance; and combining the template emulsion with the drug-containing mixture to form a template emulsion loaded with drug particles. Drug particles prepared from this process are also disclosed. The resulting drug particles demonstrate faster dissolution rates and enhanced bioavailability as compared to unprocessed drug particles and particles prepared using other processes.

  • Publication number: 20030049323
    Abstract: A process for preparing crystalline particles of a drug substance is disclosed, said process comprising recirculating an anti-solvent through a mixing zone, dissolving the drug substance in a solvent to form a solution, adding the solution to the mixing zone to form a particle slurry in the anti-solvent, and recirculating at least a portion of the particle slurry back through the mixing zone. Particles produced from the process are also disclosed. The present invention has the ability to be operated in a continuous fashion, resulting in a more efficient process and a more uniform product. The present invention has the additional advantage of having the ability to operate at a relatively low solvent ratio, thereby increasing the drug to excipient ratio.
