Abstract: Disclosed are a hyaluronic acid-based amphiphilic polymer, preparation method and application thereof. A main chain of the amphiphilic polymer is a hydrophilic hyaluronic acid and can be employed in active targeting, and a side chain thereof is a hydrophobic group represented by Formula (1).
