A novel thermosensitive polyester with pendant ketoprofen was synthesized by copolymerization of PEG 800 with 2‐ketoprofendimethylmalate using CAL‐B at 70 °C. The products were characterized by NMR spectra and GPC. The in vitro study demonstrated that the polyester could release ketoprofen in physiological conditions, which indicates that the polyester could be a promising prodrug.
