Pharmaceutical Quality by Design Approach to Develop High-Performance Nanoparticles for Magnetic Hyperthermia.

Magnetic hyperthermia holds significant therapeutic potential, yet its clinical adoption faces challenges. One obstacle is the large-scale synthesis of high-quality superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) required for inducing hyperthermia. Robust and scalable manufacturing would ensure control over the key quality attributes of SPIONs, and facilitate clinical translation and regulatory approval.

Iron oxide nanoparticles for treatment and diagnosis of chronic inflammatory diseases: A systematic review.

Chronic inflammatory conditions are among the most prevalent diseases worldwide. Several debilitating diseases such as atherosclerosis, inflammatory bowel disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and Alzheimer's are linked to chronic inflammation. These conditions often develop into complex and fatal conditions, making early detection and treatment of chronic inflammation crucial.

Magnetoresponsive fluorescent core-shell nanoclusters for biomedical applications.

Nowadays, superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) have a dominant role in many subfields of biomedicine. Owing to their peculiar properties, they can be employed for magnetic separation, drug delivery, diagnostics, and hyperthermia treatments. However, these magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) suffer from low unit magnetization due to size constraints (up to 20-30 nm) to exhibit superparamagnetic character.

Hyperthermia-Induced In Situ Drug Amorphization by Superparamagnetic Nanoparticles in Oral Dosage Forms.

Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) generate heat upon exposure to an alternating magnetic field (AMF), which has been studied for hyperthermia treatment and triggered drug release. This study introduces a novel application of magnetic hyperthermia to induce amorphization of a poorly aqueous soluble drug, celecoxib, in situ in tablets for oral administration. Poor aqueous solubility of many drug candidates is a major hurdle in oral drug development.

Design of Gadoteridol-Loaded Cationic Liposomal Adjuvant CAF01 for MRI of Lung Deposition of Intrapulmonary Administered Particles.

Designing effective and safe tuberculosis (TB) subunit vaccines for inhalation requires identification of appropriate antigens and adjuvants and definition of the specific areas to target in the lungs. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) enables high spatial resolution, but real-time anatomical and functional MRI of lungs is challenging. Here, we describe the design of a novel gadoteridol-loaded cationic adjuvant formulation 01 (CAF01) for MRI-guided vaccine delivery of the clinically tested TB subunit vaccine candidate H56/CAF01.
