Abstract
Symmetrically and asymmetrically branched homopolymers are modified at the surface level with functional groups that enable forming aggregates with a taxane, such as, paclitaxel and derivatives thereof, which are water insoluble or poorly water soluble. The aggregates are formed by interaction of a taxane and a homopolymer. Such aggregates improve drug solubility, stability, delivery and efficacy.
