An injectable drug-loaded hydrogel based on a supramolecular polymeric prodrug

Abstract

We reported a novel injectable doxorubicin-loaded hydrogel based on host–guest interaction and Schiff's base reaction. A supramolecular polymeric prodrug was prepared through the inclusion of adamantane-modified doxorubicin into the β-cyclodextrin cavity on the polyaldehyde dextran chain, which was in situ crosslinked by carboxymethyl chitosan.
