Abstract
A series of water-soluble 2'-paclitaxel prodrugs were synthesized by attaching paclitaxel to polyethylene glycol (PEG) through amino acid spacers. The prodrugs showed highly improved water solubility, enhanced in vitro cytotoxicity and in vivo antitumor activity compared with the native drug, paclitaxel.Entities:
