Download or read book Advanced Drug Delivery Systems in the Management of Cancer written by Kamal Dua and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2021-06-24 with total page 572 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advanced Drug Delivery Systems in the Management of Cancer discusses recent developments in nanomedicine and nano-based drug delivery systems used in the treatment of cancers affecting the blood, lungs, brain, and kidneys. The research presented in this book includes international collaborations in the area of novel drug delivery for the treatment of cancer. Cancer therapy remains one of the greatest challenges in modern medicine, as successful treatment requires the elimination of malignant cells that are closely related to normal cells within the body. Advanced drug delivery systems are carriers for a wide range of pharmacotherapies used in many applications, including cancer treatment. The use of such carrier systems in cancer treatment is growing rapidly as they help overcome the limitations associated with conventional drug delivery systems. Some of the conventional limitations that these advanced drug delivery systems help overcome include nonspecific targeting, systemic toxicity, poor oral bioavailability, reduced efficacy, and low therapeutic index. This book begins with a brief introduction to cancer biology. This is followed by an overview of the current landscape in pharmacotherapy for the cancer management. The need for advanced drug delivery systems in oncology and cancer treatment is established, and the systems that can be used for several specific cancers are discussed. Several chapters of the book are devoted to discussing the latest technologies and advances in nanotechnology. These include practical solutions on how to design a more effective nanocarrier for the drugs used in cancer therapeutics. Each chapter is written with the goal of informing readers about the latest advancements in drug delivery system technologies while reinforcing understanding through various detailed tables, figures, and illustrations. Advanced Drug Delivery Systems in the Management of Cancer is a valuable resource for anyone working in the fields of cancer biology and drug delivery, whether in academia, research, or industry. The book will be especially useful for researchers in drug formulation and drug delivery as well as for biological and translational researchers working in the field of cancer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chronic inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) today affects close to 200,000 people in France. They are characterized by the inflammation of the wall of a part of the digestive tract. They usually include Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn's disease. Both are chronic diseases that involve inflammation of the colonic mucosa. The main difference between Crohn's disease and Ulcerative Colitis is the location and nature of inflammation. Crohn's disease can affect any part of the GIT from mouth to anus but in most cases attacks the terminal ileum. In contrast, Ulcerative Colitis is restricted to the colon and the rectum. An ideal dosage form should effectively protect the drug in the stomach and small intestine and subsequently release the drug in the colon in a targeted and controlled manner. The objective of this work was to develop new drug delivery systems containing a polysaccharide (pectin, guar gum, inulin ...), which are degradable by the colonic bacteria and a hydrophobic thermoplastic polymer (ethylcellulose, polyurethane, polyvinyl acetate ...), which will reduce the hydrophilicity of the polysaccharide. The technique used for the preparation of these dosage forms is hot-melt extrusion. It is a continuous and free solvent process that allows the manufacturing of a dosage form called "extrudate" by forcing the soften material through an orifice. It has been demonstrated that extrudates based on polyvinyl acetate/polyurethane and inulin can minimize the release of a model active substance in the upper part of GIT due to the hydrophobic properties of polyvinyl acetate. Indeed, these extrudates uptake low amount of water and lose low dry mass upon exposure to media simulating the stomach and the small intestine. However, once in contact with the colonic flora, these systems show a considerable loss of mass due to the degradation of inulin by enzymes secreted by colonic bacteria. In another study, hot melt extrudates based on ethylcellulose blended with different types of polysaccharides (guar gum, inulin, corn starch, maltodextrin, pectin and chitosan) were studied for the development of controlled drug delivery systems. Anhydrous theophylline and diprophylline have been used as model drugs. This study was useful to set the extrusion parameters: temperature 100 °C; screw speed 30 rpm; feed rate 3 cc/min; 30 % dibutyl sebacate as a plasticizer. Importantly, hot melt extrudates based on ethylcellulose:guar gum blends offer an interesting potential as controlled drug delivery systems: They can be prepared at temperatures of about 100 °C, provide broad spectra of drug release patterns (in particular about constant drug release rates). Finally, hot melt extrudates remained stable after 1 year storage at ambient conditions.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colonic drug delivery has gained increased importance not just for the delivery of the drugs for the treatment of local diseases associated with the colon like Crohn s diseases, ulcerative colitis, irritable bowl syndrome but also for the potential it holds for the systemic delivery of proteins and therapeutic peptides. Targeted drug delivery to the colon would therefore, ensure direct treatment at the disease site and, consequently, lower dosing and reducing systemic side effects. The most critical challenge in such drug delivery approach is to preserve the formulation during its passage through the stomach and about first six meters of small intestine. In the present investigations, two drugs mesalamine and budesonide was selected for ulcerative colitis in colon. An attempt was made to prepare formulations which could not release the drug into stomach for up to 2 h. which is residence time for it, also it could not release the drug into small intestine up to 3 h. which is residence time for it and could release the drug up to 24 h to 3 days which is residence time for colon. These attempts formulate the colon targeted controlled release dosage form for ulcerative colitis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The application of drug delivery is a valuable, cost-effective lifecycle management resource. By endowing drugs with new and innovative therapeutic benefits, drug delivery systems extend products’ profitable lifecycle, giving pharmaceutical companies competitive and financial advantages, and providing patients with improved medications. Formulation development is now being used to create new dosage forms for existing products, which not only reduces the time and expense involved in new drug development, but also helps with regard to patent protection and bypassing existing patents. Today’s culture demands convenience, a major factor determining adherence to drug therapy. Over the past few years, patient convenience-oriented research in the field of drug delivery has yielded a range of innovative drug-delivery options. As a result, various drug-delivery systems, including medicated chewing gums, oral dispersible tablets, medicated lozenges and lollipops, have now hit the market and are very popular. These dosage forms offer a highly convenient way to dose medications, not only for special population groups with swallowing difficulties, such as children and the elderly, but for the general populace as well. This book provides valuable insights into a number of formulation design approaches that are currently being used, or could be used, to provide new benefits from existing drug molecules.
