PEG-300, a neutral polymer with a molecular weight of 300, is a water-soluble, low immunogenic and biocompatible polymer formed by repeating units of ethylene glycol [1,2].

Relatively high but clinically achievable PEG-300 levels can inhibit P-gp activity in Caco-2 cell monolayers, thereby enhancing the permeability of anticancer drugs such as paclitaxel and doxorubicin. For example, increasing the concentration of PEG-300 will lead to the increase of Papp and AP to BL of [3H] paclitaxel [P-gp substrate][3-6]12-14,28 and the decrease of Papp and BL to AP. At high concentrations (20%, v/v) of peg-300, it seems that paclitaxel is transported across Caco-2 cell monolayers by simple passive transcellular diffusion. Similar peg induced inhibition of efflux transporters (e.g., P-gp and / or P-gp / MRP activity) was observed in Caco-2 cells, [5] doxorubicin, indicating that PEG induced inhibition of efflux is not a unique phenomenon of paclitaxel.
