The effect of polyethylene glycol structure on paclitaxel drug release and mechanical properties of PLGA thin films

Thin films of poly(lactic acid-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) incorporating paclitaxel typically have slow release rates of paclitaxel of the order of 1 μg day−1 cm−2. For implementation as medical devices a range of zero order release rates (i.e. 1–15 μg day−1 cm−2) is desirable for different tissues and...
