Investigation of In Vivo Bioavailability Enhancement of Iloperidone-Loaded Solid…
Purpose
The current research focuses on enhancement of in vitro dissolution and in vivo bioavailability characteristics of iloperidone (IP) by formulation, optimization of L-SNEDDS using Box-Behnken design (BBD), and desirability function. L-SNEDDS were transformed into free-flowing powders by…

Extrusion for pharma applications: An update
This paper aims to give an overview of our current research and development on hot-melt extrusion (HME) for pharmaceutical formulation and drug delivery. Unfortunately, a large percentage of marketed drugs (40%) and those in the development pipeline (90%) are poorly water soluble.
We use a few…

Direct cyclodextrin based powder extrusion 3D printing of budesonide loaded mini-tablets for the…
The purpose of this study was to combine direct powder extrusion (DPE) 3D printing and fluid bed coating techniques to create a budesonide (BD) loaded solid oral formulations for the treatment of eosinophilic colitis (EC) in paediatric patients. The preferred medication for EC treatment is BD, which…

Improving drug release rate, drug-polymer miscibility, printability and processability of FDM…
Slow drug release, low drug-polymer miscibility, poor printability of polymers used, and high processing temperature are major challenges in developing FDM 3D-printed tablets. These challenges were addressed in this investigation by having a model basic drug, haloperidol (mp: 151.5 °C), interact…

Solubility Enhanced Formulation Approaches to Overcome Oral Delivery Obstacles of PROTACs
PROteolysis TArgeting Chimaeras (PROTACs) offer new opportunities in modern medicine by targeting proteins that are undruggable to classic inhibitors. However, due to their hydrophobic structure, PROTACs typically suffer from low solubility, and oral bioavailability remains challenging. At the same…

Improving aqueous solubility of paclitaxel with polysarcosine-b-poly(γ-benzyl glutamate)…
New stealth amphiphilic copolymers based on polysarcosine (PSar) rather than poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) have gained more attention for their use as excipients in nanomedicine. In this study, several polysarcosine-b-poly(γ-benzyl glutamate) (PSar-b-PGluOBn) block copolymers were synthesized by ring…

Improving in vivo oral bioavailability of a poorly soluble drug: a case study on polymeric versus…
Poorly soluble drugs must be appropriately formulated for clinical use to increase the solubility, dissolution rate, and permeation across the intestinal epithelium. Polymeric and lipid nanocarriers have been successfully investigated for this aim, and their physicochemical properties, and in…
