Doxorubicin loaded MPEG-PCL (Dox/MPEG-PCL) micelles have been readily prepared by a self-assembly method. The incorporation of doxorubicin in MPEG-PCL micelles enhanced the anticancer activity of the active ingredient and decreased its systemic toxicity compared with free Dox. The development team hopes that the Dox/MPEG-PCL micelles could lead to potential clinical applications in cancer therapy.
