A sterilizable platform based on crosslinked xanthan gum for controlled-release of polymeric…
Abstract
TPGS (D-α-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate) polymeric micelles show interesting properties for ocular administration thanks to their solubilization capability, nanometric size and tissue penetration ability. However, micelles formulations are generally characterized by low…

Evaluation of Printability of PVA-Based Tablets from Powder and Assessment of Critical Rheological…
Abstract
Fused deposition modeling (FDM) is a rather new technology in the production of personalized dosage forms. The melting and printing of polymer–active pharmaceutical ingredient (API)—mixtures can be used to produce oral dosage forms with different dosage as well as release behavior. This…

A drug repurposing approach of Atorvastatin calcium for its antiproliferative activity for effective…
Breast cancer, the most common cancer among women, caused over 500,000 deaths in 2020. Conventional treatments are expensive and have severe side effects. Drug repurposing is a novel approach aiming to reposition clinically approved non-cancer drugs into newer cancer treatments. Atorvastatin calcium…

Topical pickering emulsion versus classical excipients: A study of the residual film on the human…
Abstract
The interest in Pickering emulsions is based on the possibility of replacing classical emulsifiers with solid particles. These emulsions are very attractive in the pharmaceutical field for their stability virtues and as a vehicle to deliver active ingredients. The study aimed to analyze…

Investigation on the Combined Effect of Hydroxypropyl Beta-Cyclodextrin (HPβCD) and Polysorbate in…
Monoclonal antibodies require careful formulation due to their inherent stability limitations. Polysorbates are commonly used to stabilize mAbs, but they are prone to degradation, which results in unwanted impurities. KLEPTOSE® HPβCD (hydroxypropyl beta-cyclodextrin) has functioned as a stable…

Development of a stability indicating high-performance liquid chromatography method for…
Abstract
This study presents a stability indicating high-performance liquid chromatography HPLC method for the determination of cenobamate (CNB) in presence of its main impurity (CNB H-impurity) and degradation products. The chromatographic separation was carried out on a Thermo BDS Hypersil-C18…

Preparation of antibody-loaded protein microbeads for pulmonary delivery via Shirasu porous glass…
Reversible protein precipitates (protein microbeads) have been developed using Shirasu porous glass (SPG) membrane emulsification. Microbeads have a mean size of a few micrometers (2–5 μm), and their formation is reversible upon rehydration. Their feasibility was examined as dry powders for…

Understanding the Interaction of Thermal, Rheological, and Mechanical Parameters Critical for the…
Abstract
Hot melt extrusion (HME) is a common manufacturing process used in the pharmaceutical industry to improve the solubility of poorly soluble active pharmaceutical ingredients (API). The goal is to create an amorphous solid dispersion (ASD) where the amorphous form of the API is stabilized…

Solubility of Poorly Soluble Drugs in Phosphatidylcholine-Based Drug Delivery Systems: Comparison of…
Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the drug loading capacity of phosphatidylcholine-based formulations for four poorly water-soluble drug substances (clofazimine, fenofibrate, artemether, cannabidiol). Two self-dispersing lipid formulations were investigated, which consisted of soybean…
