abstract |
Polyanhydrides are provided that link low molecular weight drugs containing amine groups, thiol groups, alcohol groups, or phenol groups and carboxylic acid groups in the molecular structure to a polymer drug delivery system. Further provided are methods for producing polymer drug delivery systems with these polyanhydride linkers, as well as methods for administering low molecular weight drugs to a host via polymer drug delivery systems. Furthermore, a medical implant based on the polymer drug delivery system of the present invention is provided. |
