The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition of a
biologically active agent and a block copolymer composed of a
poly(ethylene oxide) forming hydrophilic segment and a poly(butyl
(alkyl)acrylate-co-(alkyl)acrylic acid) that is capable of forming
supramolecular assemblies or micelles under favourable conditions. The
supramolecular assemblies or micelles formed from said polymers associate
or dissociate reversibly upon changes in the environmental pH. The
pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention contain hydrophobic
drugs, cations or polycationic compounds, which can be delivered to the
body by oral route or other routes of administration.
