The appropriate design of experiments (DoE) could support post-approval lean-stability approaches. A three-factor three-level face-centered design was constructed to evaluate the long-term stability of gliclazide (GLZ) alginate-gelatin beads. The formulation variables were GLZ%(X), alginate:gelatin ratio(X), and glutaraldehyde%(X).

RSM allowed identification of the main effects and interactions between studied factors on MX dissolution and acceleration of the optimization process. 3 full factorial design with 27 different formulations was proposed.

A challenging approach using hot-melt-extrusion technique (HME) for production of stable novel preparation of MX pellets was successfully proposed.
Methods: Manipulating HME processing parameters (barrel-temperatures and screw-speed) and proper polymer(s) selection (Soluplus, a combination of Soluplus/Poloxamar and Polyethylene Glycol 6000) were the main strategies involved for productive extrusion of MX.
Objective: Bioavailability of Meloxicam (MLX) from solid dispersions (SDs), against innovator product Mobic in humans was conducted. Furthermore, to establish a good - correlation (IVIVC); dissolution studies were carried-out in different media.
Methods: MLX/SDs was prepared using Soluplus/Poloxamer via hot-melt-extrusion (EXT-SD) and fusion melt (FUS-SD) techniques.
