Nanoparticles from Gantrez-based conjugates for the oral delivery of camptothecin

Camptothecin (CPT) exhibits a number of challenges for its oral administration, including a low aqueous solubility, a lactone ring susceptible to hydrolysis, and an affinity to the intestinal P-gp. The aim of this work was to evaluate nanoparticles from Gantrez-based conjugates as carriers for the o...
