Provided are cosolvent evaporation methods and compositions for improving the solubility of hydrophobic compounds, including therapeutic agents such as anticancer drugs, polyene antibiotics, antilipidemic agents, and hydrophobic compounds used in various industries, and/or for reducing the toxicity of certain hydrophobic therapeutic agents, especially polyene antibiotics, in particular, Amphotericin B (AmB), and therapeutics such as paclitaxel, tamoxifen, an acylated prodrug or an acylated cis-platin, by incorporating these agents within micelles comprising an amphiphilic block-forming copolymer. |
