Abstract

Described herein are polymeric nanoparticles that include a therapeutic agent, and methods of making and using such therapeutic nanoparticles. In some embodiments, the contemplated nanoparticles may include an excipient.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A therapeutic nanoparticle comprising:
 about 0.05 to about 30 weight percent of an excipient selected from the group consisting of a polyanionic polymer and a polycationic polymer;   about 0.2 to about 35 weight percent of a therapeutic agent; and   about 35 to about 99.75 weight percent of a biocompatible polymer.   
     
     
         2 . The therapeutic nanoparticle of  claim 1 , wherein the excipient is a polyanionic polymer. 
     
     
         3 . The therapeutic nanoparticle of  claim 2 , wherein the polyanionic polymer is a copolymer of methacrylic acid and methyl methacrylate subunits. 
     
     
         4 . The therapeutic nanoparticle of  claim 3 , wherein the ratio of methacrylic acid to methyl methacrylate subunits is between about 1:0.9 to about 1:3. 
     
     
         5 . The therapeutic nanoparticle of  claim 1 , wherein the excipient is a polycationic polymer. 
     
     
         6 . The therapeutic nanoparticle of  claim 5 , wherein the polycationic polymer is a copolymer of alkyl methacrylate and dimethylaminoethylmethacrylate. 
     
     
         7 . The therapeutic nanoparticle of  claim 6 , wherein the polycationic polymer is a copolymer of dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate, butyl methacrylate, and methyl methacrylate subunits. 
     
     
         8 . The therapeutic nanoparticle of  claim 7 , wherein the ratio of dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate to butyl methacrylate to methyl methacrylate subunits is about 1:2:1. 
     
     
         9 . The therapeutic nanoparticle of  claim 1 , wherein the excipient has a molecular weight of between about 20 kDa and about 60 kDa. 
     
     
         10 . The therapeutic nanoparticle of  claim 1 , wherein the excipient has a molecular weight of between about 100 kDa and about kDa. 
     
     
         11 . The therapeutic nanoparticle of  claim 1 , wherein the excipient has a glass transition temperature of between about 40° C. and about 50° C. 
     
     
         12 . The therapeutic nanoparticle of  claim 1 , wherein the excipient has a glass transition temperature of greater than about 100° C. 
     
     
         13 . The therapeutic nanoparticle of  claim 1 , comprising about 5 to about 25 weight percent of the excipient. 
     
     
         14 . The therapeutic nanoparticle of  claim 1 , further comprising about 0.05 to about 35 weight percent cyclodextrin. 
     
     
         15 . The therapeutic nanoparticle of  claim 14 , comprising about 15 to about 30 weight percent cyclodextrin. 
     
     
         16 . The therapeutic nanoparticle of  claim 14  wherein the cyclodextrin is selected from the group consisting of α-cyclodextrin, β-cyclodextrin, γ-cyclodextrin, and mixtures thereof. 
     
     
         17 . The therapeutic nanoparticle of  claim 1 , wherein the therapeutic agent is a chemotherapeutic agent. 
     
     
         18 . The therapeutic nanoparticle of  claim 17 , wherein the chemotherapeutic agent is selected from the group consisting of docetaxel, vincristine, vinorelbine, an epothilone, epothilone B, fluorouracil, irinotecan, capecitabine, and oxaliplatin. 
     
     
         19 . The therapeutic nanoparticle of  claim 1 , wherein the therapeutic agent is a celecoxib. 
     
     
         20 . The therapeutic nanoparticle of  claim 1 , comprising about 3 to about 20 weight percent of the therapeutic agent. 
     
     
         21 - 64 . (canceled)
