Abstract excerpt
Prolonging the circulatory half-life of low mass protein drugs can be achieved either by administration of a pro-drug or through co-injection with a carrier protein that will slowly release the active protein. The rate of release is concentration and affinity dependent. The optimal relationship between these two in prolonging the half-life of a pro-drug is the focus of this work. Interferon (IFN) beta is one of...
