Zusammenfassung:Described herein are polymeric drug-carrying nanogels that are capable of targeting to P-selectin for the treatment of cancer and other diseases and conditions associated with P-selectin. Furthermore, in certain embodiments, the nanogels presented here offer a drug release mechanism based on acidic pH in the microenvironment of a tumor, thereby providing improved treatment targeting capability and allowing use of lower drug doses, thereby reducing toxicity.
