Abstract
Novel classes of multi-arm polyalkylene oxide-based materials including PEG nanocarriers, nanogel particles, and aggregated nanogel particles are disclosed. These classes of compositions may be associated with therapeutic agents and targeting moieties, or visibility enhancing agents, and may have a modified surface structure. In some embodiments the PEG-based materials can be made to provide relatively high drug loads with improved solubility and targeted delivery.
