Nanomaterial Technology to Enable Efficient Oral Drug Delivery

Nanomaterial Technology to Enable Efficient Oral Drug Delivery

  • Supramolecular nanoparticles (SNPs) that effectively enhance the oral bioavailability of cargo drugs
  • Functional nano- or microstructures from five classes of MNPs and their synthetic analogs and derivatives are stable in strong acidic environment (as low as pH 1.0) and can effectively penetrate the gastrointestinal tract;
  • Small compound chemotherapeutic agents and peptide therapeutics encapsulated therein show a much greater plasma concentration and targeted tissue adsorption following oral administration and strong efficacy in treating tumors, diabetes, and stroke in animal models.
  • Intellectual Property: Patent Application Pending
