Spray-dried liposomes: A study of the effect of carbohydrate carrier and concentrations on liposome…
Background and objective: Dry powder inhalation provide many promising features for
drug delivery to the pulmonary system, such as localization of drug within the lungs, drug
retention in the respiratory tract, and reduced systemic toxicities. This study aimed to
prepare dry powders of liposomes…

Be Aggressive! Amorphous Excipients Enabling Single-Step Freeze-Drying of Monoclonal Antibody…
Short freeze-drying cycles for biopharmaceuticals are desirable. Formulations containing an amorphous disaccharide, such as sucrose, are prone to collapse upon aggressive primary drying at higher shelf temperature.
We used 2-hydroxypropyl-betacyclodextrin (HPBCD) in combination with sucrose and…
