This book was released on 2009 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work presented in this thesis has provided additional information regarding the utilisation of lipid-based self-emulsifying formulations for lipophilic drugs, making use of fenofibrate as a model. Specifically the work focused on lipid-based formulation in the context of the emerging "Lipid Formulation Classification System" (LFCS) which has been previously proposed as a new means of classifying lipid-based formulations. This is the first study to address lipid formulations using a small group of related excipients to cover a wide range of lipid formulations. The roles of the lipid phase, the effect of the ratio of lipid to surfactant and the presence of cosolvent on the performance of formulations were investigated. A series of phase diagrams were constructed to examine the phase behaviour during dispersion of anhydrous formulations. Type II, IIIA, IIIB and IV (SEDDS & SMEDDS) were investigated using medium chain glycerides (MCGs), polysorbates and propylene glycol (PG) as excipients. Equilibrium solubilities of the drug were determined in mixtures equivalent to diluted formulations to examine the likelihood of precipitation on dispersion. These data were compared with drug precipitation data obtained in dynamic dispersion experiments. Precipitation was measured over time after 1 in 100 dilutions of formulations in aqueous media. Aqueous dispersion of Type II lipid formulations resulted in turbid emulsions, followed subsequently by very slow precipitation of fraction of the drug dose. Type IIIA formulations, which carried less drug in solution at equilibrium, nevertheless typically maintained drugs in a metastable state for several hours or even days. These studies suggested that Type II and Type IIIA formulations were the most appropriate for fenofibrate. Diluted formulations were also subjected to in vitro digestion to predict the fate of the drug in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract after exposure of the formulation to pancreataic enzymes and bile. In vitro digestion experiments were carried out using a pH-stat maintained pH 7.5 for 30 minutes using intestinal fluids simulating the fed and fasted states (FeSSIF and FaSSIF). The digestion rate was higher in Type II & IIIA systems. Formulations with higher content of hydrophillic materials (Type IIIB or Type IV) resulted in more rapid precipitation, and extensive precipitation of drug from Type IV formulations took place rapidly. The high concentration of surfactant and or cosolvent lowered the rate of digestion but considerable precipitation occurred due to lack of solvent capacity of diluted formulations. Digestion experiments suggested that drug was in a supersaturated state which could be maintained in the presence of mixed bile salt micelles. The fate of fenofibrate is dependent on the choice of lipid formulation as exemplified by the LFCS. In particular the current study suggests that Type IIIB or Type IV formulation may be unsuitable for highly lipophilic drugs, but in vitro tests suggested that after digestion there was a considerable risk of precipitation from all formulations.

To this end, the monograph was created by inviting recognized experts from a number of fields to author relevant sections. Specifically, 15 chapters have been designed covering the theoretical background of solubility, the effect of ionic equilibria and pH on solubilization, the use of solvents to effect drug substance crystallization and polymorph selection, the use of solvent systems in high throughput screening and early discovery, solvent use in preformulation, the use of solvents in bio-relevant dissolution and permeation experiments, solvents and their use as toxicology vehicles, solubilizing media and excipients in oral and parenteral formulation development, specialized vehicles for protein formulation and solvent systems for topical and pulmonary drug administration. The chapters are organized such that useful decision trees are included together with the scientific underpinning for their application. In addition, trends in the use of solvent systems and a balance of current views make this monograph useful to both the novice and experienced researcher and to scientists at all developmental stages from early discovery to late pharmaceutical operations.

Download or read book Water Insoluble Drug Formulation written by Ron Liu and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-03-12 with total page 781 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Properties and Formulation: From Theory to Real-World Application Scientists have attributed more than 40 percent of the failures in new drug development to poor biopharmaceutical properties, particularly water insolubility. Issues surrounding water insolubility can postpone or completely derail important new drug development. Even the much-needed reformulation of currently marketed products can be significantly affected by these challenges. More recently it was reported that the percentage increased to 90% for the candidates of new chemical entities in the discovery stage and 75% for compounds under development. In the most comprehensive resource on the topic, this third edition of Water-Insoluble Drug Formulation brings together a distinguished team of experts to provide the scientific background and step-by-step guidance needed to deal with solubility issues in drug development. Twenty-three chapters systematically describe the detailed discussion on solubility theories, solubility prediction models, the aspects of preformulation, biopharmaceutics, pharmacokinetics, regulatory, and discovery support of water-insoluble drugs to various techniques used in developing delivery systems for water-insoluble drugs. This book includes more than 15 water-insoluble drug delivery systems or technologies, illustrated with case studies and featuring oral and parenteral applications. Highlighting the most current information and data available, this seminal volume reflects the significant progress that has been made in nearly all aspects of this field. The aim of this book is to provide a handy reference for pharmaceutical scientists in the handling of formulation issues related to water-insoluble drugs. In addition, this book may be useful to pharmacy and chemistry undergraduate students and pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical graduate students to enhance their knowledge in the techniques of drug solubilization and dissolution enhancement.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The absorption and oral bioavailability of poorly water-soluble drugs is often limited by poor aqueous solubility and slow dissolution in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Lipid-based formulations are a popular formulation approach to enhance oral bioavailability for drugs where water solubility is the primary limitation to absorption. The research undertaken in this thesis examines the use of different types and masses of lipids to improve drug solubilisation and absorption, and investigates the contribution of gastric processing to the improvements in oral bioavailability typically seen after co-administration of poorly water-soluble drugs with lipids and lipid-based formulations. A simple in vitro lipid digestion model was used to assess the effect of lipid type and mass on the solubilisation of three model lipophilic drugs (danazol, cinnarizine and halofantrine). Digestion of medium chain triacylglyceride (MCT) formulations yielded improved drug solubilisation (and resulted in drug supersaturation) at high lipid mass (250 mg). In contrast, for long chain triacylglyceride (LCT) formulations, drug concentrations in the aqueous phase of the digests were higher after digestion of the smallest lipid masses, regardless of drug lipophilicity. In all cases, digestion of the LCT formulations was incomplete, resulting in a residual oil phase. At low masses of LCT lipid (50 mg), digestion was more complete, resulting in increased drug transfer into the aqueous phase. For the more lipophilic drugs, partitioning into the residual oil phase increased. Drug lipophilicity, the choice and quantity of lipid, and the need for complete digestion of the formulation were therefore important indicators of the performance of the in vitro lipid digestion assay. Cinnarizine (CZ) was subsequently chosen as a model poorly water-soluble drug to exemplify the effects of lipid load on drug exposure in in vivo studies and to compare in vitro and in vivo performance. In vivo bioavailability studies were undertaken at fixed and varied lipid:CZ ratios and after administration with LCT and MCT. In all cases, the bioavailability of CZ was higher after administration of LCT rather than MCT formulations, regardless of lipid mass. At a fixed lipid:CZ ratio, increasing the quantity of formulation did not affect oral bioavailability, and linear pharmacokinetics were observed. When the lipid:CZ ratio was increased, CZ absorption increased at lipid doses from 50 mg to 250 mg, but did not increase further beyond 250 mg. The data suggest that the type and mass of lipid co-administered are important, but that in most cases, LCT formulations outperform the equivalent MCT formulation.The same lipids were also given by intraduodenal administration as both a lipid solution and as a dispersed lipid formulation, to assess the contribution of gastric processing to oral bioavailability. CZ bioavailability was reduced when either formulation was administered intraduodenally and similar trends were evident for MCT and LCT. The data suggest that gastric and intestinal processing contribute to improved CZ absorption. Finally, aspiration of GI content after formulation administration revealed that the digestion of MCT was more prevalent in the stomach than LCT. Gastric processing may explain the improvements in bioavailability when MCT formulations (both solution and dispersion) were administered orally when compared to intraduodenally. Surprisingly, LCT formulations were seemingly less dependent on gastric processing. In summary, the research described in this thesis highlights the potential utility (and drawbacks) of in vitro lipid digestion models to predict in vivo absorption, and further shows that the mass and type of lipid, and processing in both the stomach and the intestine are important determinants of oral bioavailability from lipid-based formulations.
