Biotinylated lipid prodrugs of acyclovir (ACV) were designed to target the sodium dependent multivitamin transporter (SMVT) on the intestine and cornea to facilitate ACV cellular transport. All the prodrugs were screened ...

We have successfully synthesized pentablock (PB) copolymers comprised of various FDA approved polymer blocks such as polyethylene glycol (PEG), polycaprolactone (PCL), polylactic acid (PLA) and polyglycolic acid (PGA). PB ...

PART I: DIPEPTIDE PRODRUG APPROACH TO IMPROVE INTESTINAL ABSORPTION OF LOPINAVIR Lopinavir (LPV), a highly potent second-generation HIV-1 protease inhibitor, is currently indicated in HIV-1 infection. However, poor ...

Pentablock (PB) copolymers have been successfully synthesized for long term delivery in the treatment of posterior segment ocular diseases. PB copolymers are comprised of FDA approved biodegradable polymer such as ...

The objective of this study was to develop a clear aqueous mixed nanomicellar formulation (NMF) of hydrophobic drugs for diabetic macula edema. The hydrophobic drugs include triamcinolone acetonide (TA), fluocinolonce ...

Multidrug resistance (MDR), a clinical outcome characterized by subtherapeutic intracellular drug concentration, is one of the predominant factors limiting effective cancer chemotherapy. Several possible mechanisms and ...

The primary objective of this project is to develop drug-loaded polymeric nanoparticles suspended in a biocompatible gel for topical delivery of therapeutic agents commonly employed in the treatment of ocular viral/bacterial ...

The objective of this study was to develop a clear, aqueous drug loaded nanomicellar formulation (NMF) for the back-of-the-eye delivery. Hydrophobic drugs such as cyclosporine, resolvin analog (RX-10045), dexamethasone ...
