wherein

R 20 is alkyl;

wherein the tetrazine-containing group is covalently attached directly to a support through an amide and the support is a hyaluronic acid.

2 . The therapeutic support composition of claim 1 , wherein the support is a hydrogel.

3 . The therapeutic support composition of claim 1 , wherein the support is a particle.

4 . The therapeutic support composition of claim 3 , wherein the particle is a nanoparticle.

5 . The therapeutic support composition of claim 1 , comprising:

an azide-containing group of formula:

wherein L 10 is a linker; or

an alkyne-containing group of formula:

wherein L 11 is a linker.

6 . The therapeutic support composition of claim 5 , wherein each linker is a C 1 -C 10 -alkylene group.

7 . A therapeutic support composition comprising a particle, to which a tetrazine-containing group is attached, represented by the following formula

wherein:

R 20 is alkyl;

the particle is hyaluronic acid, and the tetrazine-containing group is covalently attached directly to the particle through an amide.
