Association of poly(N-acryloylglycinamide) with at least one active principle
The present invention relates to an association of poly (N-acryloyl glycinamide) with at least one active principle and/or at least one product which is visible in medical imaging, in a physiologically acceptable aqueous medium.
1. A combination of poly(N-acryloylglycinamide) with at least one active principle and/or at least one product that is visible in medical imaging, in a physiologically acceptable aqueous medium, wherein said active principle is chosen from antitumor agents, antibiotics, analgesics, anti-inflammatory agents, growth factors and antiseptics, wherein said product that is visible in medical imaging is chosen from an opacifier, a fluorescer and an ionizing radiation emitter
wherein the combination has a gel-sol transition temperature of between 30 and 60° C., and being in liquid form above the gel-sol transition temperature and in gel form below the gel-sol transition temperature, and
the combination being useful (i) for local post-operative or preoperative treatment, (ii) for treating wounds, wherein it is applied directly to the wound or via any protective device, or (iii) for post-operative monitoring by medical imaging.
2. The combination as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said poly(N-acryloylglycinamide) has an average molar mass of between 10 000 and 1 000 000 g/mol.
3. The combination as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said poly(N-acryloylglycinamide) is present in the aqueous medium in a solids content of between 0.5% and 20% by weight, relative to the total weight of said medium.
4. The combination as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said aqueous medium is prepared based on a physiological liquid.
5. The combination as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said active principle is an antitumor agent.
6. The combination as claimed in claim 1 , which is useful for delivering an active principle.
7. The combination as claimed in claim 1 , which is useful for patients who have undergone a tumor reduction surgery.
8. The combination as claimed in claim 1 , wherein it is applied to a wound via an impregnated protective device.
9. The combination as claimed in claim 1 , which is useful for treating animals, and humans.
10. A lyophilizate of claim 1 prepared from an aqueous solution of poly(N-acryloylglycinamide), and of at least one active principle and/or of at least one product that is visible in medical imaging, wherein the combination of polv(N-acryloylglycinamide) with at least one active principle and/or of at least one product that is visible in medical imaging has a gel-sol transition temperature of between 30 and 60° C., and being in liquid form above the gel-sol transition temperature and in gel form below the gel-sol transition temperature wherein said active principle is chosen from antitumor agents, antibiotics, analgesics, anti-inflammatory agents, growth factors and antiseptics, wherein said product that is visible in medical imaging is chosen from an opacifier, a fluorescer and an ionizing radiation emitter.
