Investigation of magnesium aluminometasilicate (Neusilin US2) based surface solid dispersion of sorafenib tosylate using QbD approach: and pharmacokinetic study.

Background And Purpose: Sorafenib tosylate (SFN), a potent multikinase inhibitor, is used for the treatment of various cancers. However, it shows limited therapeutic applications due to its poor biopharmaceutical properties. The aim of the present investigation is to develop surface solid dispersion (SSD) of SFN using adsorbent to improve its solubility, bioavailability and therapeutic efficacy.

Bridging the Gap: A Comparative Investigation of Pharmaceutical Excipient Regulations.

Since the awareness of adverse effects associated with pharmaceutical excipients in drug formulations, these excipients are no longer considered inert substances. Numerous countries have recognized the potential risks that they pose to patients and have implemented diverse regulations to evaluate their safety, compatibility, toxicity, and quality. Regulatory authorities have proactively implemented measures to evaluate excipients and have formulated comprehensive guidelines that manufacturers are obligated to follow.

Investigation of dimyristoyl phosphatidyl glycerol and cholesterol based nanocochleates as a potential oral delivery carrier for methotrexate.

Methotrexate (MTX), a biopharmaceutical classification system-IV anticancer drug, exhibits low therapeutic efficacy. Moreover, its clinical applications were restricted due to its multidrug resistance (MDR) in cancer and its toxic effects. The present investigation was to fabricate 1, 2-dimyristoyl--glycero-3-phospho--(1-glycerol) sodium (DMPG-Na), (3β)-cholest-5-en-3-ol (cholesterol) and calcium-based nanocochleates (NCs) as a potential oral delivery carrier for MTX to enhance its therapeutic efficacy with low toxicity.

In Vitro and In Vivo Performance of Novel Spray Dried Andrographolide Loaded Scleroglucan Based Formulation for Dry Powder Inhaler.

Background: Current therapy for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is unable to prevent progression of disease due to continuous infusions and multiple oral administrations. This resulted in the need of novel treatment which would target directly structural vascular changes that weaken blood flow through pulmonary circulation.

Objective: The objective of present study was to develop spray dried (SD) formulation for dry powder inhaler (DPI) with enhanced aerosol performance and lung deposition by using novel bioactive, andrographolide (AGP) and carrier, scleroglucan (SCLG) with improved antihypertensive activity.

Formulation and evaluation of optimized oxybenzone microsponge gel for topical delivery.

Background. Oxybenzone, a broad spectrum sunscreen agent widely used in the form of lotion and cream, has been reported to cause skin irritation, dermatitis, and systemic absorption. Aim.

Development of Budesonide Loaded Biopolymer Based Dry Powder Inhaler: Optimization, In Vitro Deposition, and Cytotoxicity Study.

The progress in the development of DPI technology has boosted the use of sensitive drug molecules for lung diseases. However, delivery of these molecules from conventional DPI to the active site still poses a challenge with respect to deposition efficiency in the lung. At same time, serious systemic side effects of drugs have become a cause for concern.
