Abstract:
Objective:To screen the best formula of tegafur temperature-sensitive gel for intratumor injection and investigate the in vitro drug release behavior. Methods:The drug dose was determined by cytotoxicity experiment. The thermo-sensitive gel was prepared with PLGA-PEG-PLGA and HPMC as the matrix. With the in vitro release as the index, the effects of PLGA-PEG-PLGA and HPMC at different concentrations on gel were investigated. The gelation temperature, viscosity and pH were detected. Results:The best formula was as follows:25% PLGA-PEG-PLGA, 1% HPMC, and tegafur dose of 1 mg·ml-1 . The average gelation temperature was 36. 7℃, the average viscosity was 7550 mPa·s, and the average pH was 7. 2. Conclusion:Tegafur thermo-sensitive gel for intratumor in-jection shows temperature sensitivity and obvious sustained-release property, which provides experimental basis for the further clinical research.
