Future of sustained protein delivery

Ther Deliv. 2014 Nov;5(11):1171-4. doi: 10.4155/tde.14.86.

Abstract

“Despite limitations associated with every approach, delivery of proteins for an extended duration in a controlled manner is achievable… a clinically acceptable formulation that delivers proteins over a period of months is largely an unmet need.”

Keywords: biodegradable polymers; controlled release; implants; protein delivery; protein stability; sustained delivery.
