A series of aripiprazole (AR3) syntheses were performed at laboratory scale (10 mmol of the ARI substrate) in order to optimize the amount of another substrate AR2, as well as Na2CO3, ethanol and varying the reaction time. The reaction parameters were chosen according to the D-optimal plans. A high conversion ratio, about 90-99%, was obtained. Purity of crude product (AR3) was determined by HPLC. Molar content of crude reaction product was predicted theoretically with the use of the mass balance and the corresponding HPLC parameters. The theoretical predictions were verified with the potentiometric and thermogravimetric analysis of selected samples. Based on the predicted molar content of reaction mixtures, a series of reaction response surfaces was calculated and optimal set of reaction parameters for aripiprazole synthesis was determined.

Hepatocellular carcinoma () is one of the leading causes of cancer deaths due to its late diagnosis and restricted therapeutic options. Therefore, the search for appropriate alternatives to commonly applied therapies remains an area of high clinical need. Here we investigated the therapeutic potential of the glucosylceramide synthase (GCS) inhibitor Genz-123346 and the cationic amphiphilic drug aripiprazole on the inhibition of Huh7 and Hepa 1-6 hepatocellular cancer cell and tumor microsphere growth.

Aripiprazole (ARI) is an atypical antipsychotic which is a substrate of P-glycoprotein (P-gp), a transmembrane glycoprotein that plays a crucial role in eliminating potentially harmful compounds from the organism. ARI once-monthly (AOM) is a long-acting injectable form which improves treatment compliance. Genetic polymorphisms in ABCB1 may lead to changes in P-gp function, leading to individual differences in drug disposition.

Articular cartilage has a limited regenerative capacity, resulting in poor spontaneous healing of damaged tissue. Despite various scientific efforts to enhance cartilage repair, no single method has yielded satisfactory results. With rising drug development costs, drug repositioning has emerged as a viable alternative.

Introduction: Breast cancer, a formidable global health challenge for women, necessitates innovative therapeutic strategies with enhanced efficacy and minimal side effects. Aripiprazole (ARI), a widely used schizophrenia medication, exhibits promising potential in the treatment of breast cancer. As cancer therapy evolves towards a combination approach, multimodal nano-based delivery systems, such as ARI-loaded niosomes (NIOs) combined with Chitosan-Au nanoparticles for chemo-photothermal therapy, show promise over traditional chemotherapy alone by enhancing targeted efficacy and minimizing side effects.

Importance: Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and intellectual disability often experience persistent challenges related to aggressive behaviour and agitation, highlighting the critical need for evidence-based pharmacological interventions among other strategies. Despite previous network meta-analyses (NMAs), the rapidly evolving landscape of treatment options necessitates ongoing and updated assessments.
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of various pharmacotherapies in managing agitation in children and adults with ASD or intellectual disabilities (ID).
