Raw Material Variability in Biomanufacturing: A Case Study Using Poloxamer 188
Introduction & Aim
Media for cell culture has evolved from recipes containing plant or animal-derived products, to fully chemically defined (CD) formulations as an effort to reduce variability in bioprocess performance due to raw materials. A critical ingredient, poloxamer 188, has a history…

Nanocrystals and nanosuspensions: an exploration from classic formulations to advanced drug delivery…
Nanocrystals and nanosuspensions have become realistic approaches to overcome the formulation challenges of poorly water-soluble drugs. They also represent a less-known but versatile platform for multiple therapeutic applications. They can be integrated into a broad spectrum of drug delivery systems…

Nintedanib solid lipid nanoparticles improve oral bioavailability and ameliorate pulmonary fibrosis…
Nintedanib (NIN) and pirfenidone are the only approved drugs for the treatment of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF). However, NIN and pirfenidone have low oral bioavailability and limited therapeutic potential, requiring higher dosages to increase their efficacy, which causes significant liver and…

Reversible protein complexes as a promising avenue for the development of high concentration…
Abstract
High concentration formulations have become an important pre-requisite in the development of biological drugs, particularly in the case of subcutaneous administration where limited injection volume negatively affects the administered dose. In this study, we propose to develop high…

Development of a new inhaled swellable microsphere system for the dual delivery of naringenin-loaded…
Abstract
This study developed a new dual delivery system of naringenin (NRG), a polyphenol, and doxofylline (DOX), a xanthine derivative, as an inhaled microsphere system. In this system, NRG has been first loaded into glyceryl tristearate-based solid lipid nanoparticles (NRG SLN), which were…

Polymersomes for protein drug delivery across intestinal mucosa
The oral administration is the route preferred by patients due to its multiple advantages. In the case of biopharmaceuticals, due to their low stability and absorption in the intestine, these molecules must be administered by injectable routes. To circumvent these problems, several strategies have…

Anti-Inflammatory Drug Repurposing for Intranasal Delivery: Ketoprofen Nanoemulgel Development for…
The anti-inflammatory drug ketoprofen has shown promising results in the field of drug repurposing for the treatment of brain cancer, but currently developed formulations are for invasive administration (intravenous) and have very limited drug strength. Hence, the purpose of this work was to develop…

Nanostructured lipid carriers loaded into in situ gels for breast cancer local treatment
In this study, nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC) were developed and employed to obtain in situ thermosensitive formulations for the ductal administration and prolonged retention of drugs as a new strategy for breast cancer local treatment. NLC size was influenced by the type and concentration of…
