The present invention provides semi-fluorinated block copolymers and related methods of synthesizing and using semi-fluorinated block copolymers for drug delivery and drug formulation applications. Semi-fluorinated block copolymers of this aspect of the invention include block copolymers having discrete hydrophilic, fluorophilic and hydrophobic structural domains that are capable of forming supramolecular structures in aqueous solutions, such as micelles, for encapsulating hydrophobic and/or fluorophilic therapeutic agents. Encapsulation by semi-fluorinated block copolymers of the present invention allows for enhanced solubilization and stabilization of hydrophobic and/or fluorophilic therapeutic agents relative to conventional drug delivery compositions and methods.
