Int J Pharm 2023; 638:122919. [PMID: 37011828 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2023.122919] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2022] [Revised: 02/23/2023] [Accepted: 03/31/2023] [Indexed: 04/04/2023]
Abstract
Understanding and controlling the drug solubilization in digestive environment is of great importance in the design of lipid based solid dispersion (LBSD) for oral delivery of poorly aqueous soluble drugs. In the current study we determined the extent of drug solubilization and supersaturation of supersaturating lipid based solid dispersion which is governed by formulation variables like drug payload, lipid composition, solid carrier properties and lipid to solid carrier ratio. Initially, the impact of lipid chain length and drug payload on drug solubilization in lipid preconcentrate and dispersibility were evaluated to design liquid LbF of the model antiretroviral drug, atazanavir. The temperature induced supersaturation method enhanced the drug payload in medium chain triglyceride formulation at 60 °C. Further, the selected liquid supersaturated LbF was transformed into solid state LbF by employing different solid carriers including silica (Neusilin® US2 and Aerosil® 200), clay (Montmorillonite and Bentonite) and polymer (HPMC-AS and Kollidon® CL-M). The fabricated LBSDs were evaluated for solid state characterization to identify the physical nature of drug. In vitro digestion studies were conducted using pH-stat lipolysis method to assess the supersaturation propensity in aqueous digestive phase. Results revealed that LBSDs with silica and polymer carriers showed maximum drug solubilization throughout experiment compared to liquid LbF. The ionic interaction between drug-clay particles significantly reduced the ATZ partitioning from clay based LBSDs. LBSDs with dual purpose solid carrier like HPMC-AS and Neusilin® US2 offers the potential to improve drug solubilization of ATZ for physiologically relevant time. Lastly, we conclude that evaluation of formulation variables is crucial to achieve optimal performance of supersaturating LBSD.

The Influence of Blonanserin Supersaturation in Liquid and Silica Stabilised Self-Nanoemulsifying Drug Delivery Systems on In Vitro Solubilisation. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:pharmaceutics15010284. [PMID: 36678919 PMCID: PMC9864080 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics15010284] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2022] [Revised: 01/09/2023] [Accepted: 01/11/2023] [Indexed: 01/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Reformulating poorly water-soluble drugs as supersaturated lipid-based formulations achieves higher drug loading and potentially improves solubilisation and bioavailability. However, for the weak base blonanserin, silica solidified supersaturated lipid-based formulations have demonstrated reduced in vitro solubilisation compared to their liquid-state counterparts. Therefore, this study aimed to understand the influence of supersaturated drug load on blonanserin solubilisation from liquid and silica solidified supersaturated self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery systems (super-SNEDDS) during in vitro lipolysis. Stable liquid super-SNEDDS with varying drug loads (90-300% of the equilibrium solubility) were solidified by imbibition into porous silica microparticles (1:1 lipid: silica ratio). In vitro lipolysis revealed greater blonanserin solubilisation from liquid super-SNEDDS compared to solid at equivalent drug saturation levels, owing to strong silica-BLON/lipid interactions, evidenced by a significant decrease in blonanserin solubilisation upon addition of silica to a digesting liquid super-SNEDDS. An increase in solid super-SNEDDS drug loading led to increased solubilisation, owing to the increased drug:silica and drug:lipid ratios. Solidifying SNEDDS with silica enables the fabrication of powdered formulations with higher blonanserin loading and greater stability than liquid super-SNEDDS, however at the expense of drug solubilisation. These competing parameters need careful consideration in designing optimal super-SNEDDS for pre-clinical and clinical application.

Abstract
Laponite is a clay-based material composed of synthetic disk-shaped crystalline nanoparticles with highly ionic, large surface area. These characteristics enable the intercalation and dissolution of biomolecules in Laponite-based drug delivery systems. Furthermore, Laponite's innate physicochemical properties and architecture enable the development of tunable pH-responsive drug delivery systems. Laponite's coagulation capacity and cation exchangeability determine its exchange capabilities, drug encapsulation efficiency, and release profile. These parameters are exploited to design highly controlled and efficacious drug delivery platforms for sustained drug release. In this review, they provide an overview of how to design efficient delivery of therapeutics by leveraging the properties and specific interactions of various Laponite-polymer composites and drug moieties.

Abstract
Supersaturated silica-lipid hybrids have previously demonstrated improved in vitro solubilisation and in vivo oral bioavailability of poorly water-soluble drugs, however were only fabricated using a single lipid (LFCS type I formulations) and were not compared to their liquid precursors. This study investigated the influence of lipid formulation classification (type I vs. type II vs. type IIIA/SNEDDS) and physical state (liquid LBF vs. solidified with silica) on the in vitro solubilisation of the poorly soluble, weak base, anti-psychotic drug, blonanserin (BLON), from a supersaturated lipid-based formulation (LBF). Stable liquid supersaturated LBF were fabricated using BLON (loaded at 150% of its equilibrium solubility), and solidified through encapsulation within porous silica microparticles at a 1:1 ratio. Their physicochemical properties and in vitro solubilisation during lipolysis were compared. Supersaturated BLON was encapsulated in the non-crystalline form. All supersaturated LBF improved the solubilisation of pure BLON during lipolysis regardless of their lipid formulation type or their physical state (1.7- to 13.4-fold). SNEDDS achieved greater solubilisation than the type II formulations (1.4- to 1.7-fold). Furthermore, the liquid precursors achieved greater solubilisation than the silica solidified formulations (4.5- to 5.7-fold). Additionally, in an attempt to increase BLON solubilisation, a spray-dried SNEDDS and dual-loaded solidified super-SNEDDS solidified with silica pre-loaded with BLON was developed, however did not significantly improve solubilisation. Liquid SNEDDS were identified as the optimal oral supersaturated LBF strategy for BLON based on in vitro lipolysis studies. Solidification of LBF using silica is a viable strategy for improving stability, however for drugs such as BLON, solidification may impede in vitro release and solubilisation.

Abstract
Physiological reflexes and anatomical barriers render traditional eye drop delivery inefficient. We previously reported that drug-loaded nanoparticles and microspheres prepared from montmorillonite and Eudragit polymers exhibited good sustained-release and lowered intraocular pressure. Here, we compared the performance of optimized formulations to select the most suitable formulation for glaucoma therapy. We found that the microspheres had much higher encapsulation efficiency and drug loading than nanoparticles. Moreover, cytocompatibility experiments demonstrated that nanoparticles showed more severe cytotoxicity than microspheres, probably due to their smaller particles, enhanced cell uptake, and intracellular solubility. Interestingly, the pre-corneal retention time of nanoparticles reflected a clear advantage over microspheres, while the duration of the pharmacological effect of nanoparticles was not as good as that of microspheres: compared with the nanoparticle depressurization duration of only 8 h, the microspheres continuously depressurized for 12 h. The slower release of the microspheres and its micro-interaction mechanism with the discontinuous mucin layer of the tear film led to the inconsistency between duration of pharmacodynamics and fluorescence ocular retention time. In summary, the lower cytotoxicity and longer pharmacological effect of microspheres indicate their potential advantages for glaucoma applications.

Abstract
Lipid-based formulations (LBFs) are well-known to improve the oral bioavailability of poorly water-soluble drugs (PWSDs) by presenting the drug to the gastrointestinal environment in a molecularly dispersed state, thus avoiding the rate-limiting dissolution step. Risperidone and lurasidone are antipsychotics drugs which experience erratic and variable absorption, leading to a low oral bioavailability. The aim of this research was to develop and investigate the performance of risperidone and lurasidone when formulated as an emulsion and silica-lipid hybrid (SLH). Lurasidone and risperidone were dissolved in Capmul® MCM at 100% and 80% their equilibrium solubility, respectively, prior to forming a sub-micron emulsion. SLH microparticles were fabricated by spray-drying a silica stabilised sub-micron emulsion to form a solid powder. The performances of the formulations were evaluated in simulated intestinal media under digesting conditions, where the emulsion and SLH provided a 17-fold and 23-fold increase in LUR solubilisation, respectively. However, the performance of RIS was reduced by 2.2-fold when encapsulated within SLH compared to pure drug. Owing to its pKa, RIS adsorbed to the silica and thus, dissolution was significantly hindered. The results reveal that LBFs may not overcome the challenges of all PWSDs and physiochemical properties must be carefully considered when predicting drug performance.

Abstract
Increasing numbers of beyond Rule-of-Five drugs are emerging from discovery pipelines, generating a need for bio-enabling formulation approaches, such as lipid-based formulations (LBF), to ensure maximal in vivo exposure. However, many drug candidates display insufficient lipid solubility, leading to dose-loading limitations in LBFs. The aim of this study was to explore the potential of supersaturated LBFs (sLBF) for the beyond Rule-of-Five drug venetoclax. Temperature-induced sLBFs of venetoclax were obtained in olive oil, Captex® 1000, Peceol® and Capmul MCM®, respectively. A Peceol®-based sLBF displayed the highest drug loading and was therefore evaluated further. In vitro lipolysis demonstrated that the Peceol®-based sLBF was able to generate higher venetoclax concentrations in the aqueous phase compared to a Peceol®-based suspension and an aqueous suspension. A subsequent bioavailability study in pigs demonstrated for sLBF a 3.8-fold and 2.1-fold higher bioavailability compared to the drug powder and Peceol®-based suspension, respectively. In conclusion, sLBF is a promising bio-enabling formulation approach to enhance in vivo exposure of beyond Rule-of-Five drugs, such as venetoclax. The in vitro lipolysis results correctly predicted a higher exposure of the sLBF in vivo. The findings of this study are of particular relevance to pre-clinical drug development, where maximum exposure is required.

Abstract
Abstract: Clay-polymer nanocomposites have exhibited a great potential as carriers for controlled release drug delivery. This study aims to prepare exfoliated montmorillonite-Eudragit RS nanocomposites using reactive melt extrusion and investigate the influence of claying loading, clay types (sodium montmorillonite (Cloisite Na) vs. organomodified montmorillonite (Cloisite 20)) on clay-polymer interactions and drug release properties. The clays were used as the filler material at various levels in Eudragit RS and theophylline was used as the active pharmaceutical ingredient. The resulting structure of the nanocomposites was characterized using TEM (transmission electron microscopy) and XRPD (X-ray powder diffraction). The hygroscopicity of the nanocomposites was investigated using DVS (dynamic vapor sorption). The effect of the interfacial interaction between the polymer and clay sheet, the clay loading as well as the clay type on the drug release behavior were further studied by dissolution testing. TEM and XRPD data show that when the clay content is increased from 5% to 15% by weight, the nanocomposite's structure switches from a fully exfoliated state to intercalated structures or partial exfoliation with stacked clay layers. FT-IR (fourier transform infrared spectroscopy) and ssNMR (solid-state NMR) results suggest that Cloisite Na and Cloisite 20 layers exhibit different interaction strengths with polymer networks by creating compacted complex structures. The addition of nanoclay in the formulation could robustly adjust drug release profiles, and the clay concentration and type are important factors that affect the crossing-linking density of the nanocomposites by adjusting the drug release properties. This study indicates that the clay-Eudragit RS nanocomposites provide an improved oral controlled drug delivery system that minimizes the drug dosing frequency, potentially leading to improved patient compliance.

Abstract
Self-emulsifying drug delivery systems (SEDDS) offer potential for overcoming the inherent slow dissolution and poor oral absorption of hydrophobic drugs by retaining them in a solubilised state during gastrointestinal transit. However, the promising biopharmaceutical benefits of liquid lipid formulations has not translated into widespread commercial success, due to their susceptibility to long term storage and in vivo precipitation issues. One strategy that has emerged to overcome such limitations, is to combine the solubilisation and dissolution enhancing properties of lipids with the stabilising effects of solid carrier materials. The development of intelligent hybrid drug formulations has presented new opportunities to harness the potential of emulsified lipids in optimising oral bioavailability for lipophilic therapeutics. Specific emphasis of this review is placed on the impact of solidification approaches and excipients on the biopharmaceutical performance of self-emulsifying lipids, with findings highlighting the key design considerations that should be implemented when developing hybrid lipid-based formulations.

Abstract
Nanostructured particle-lipid composites have emerged as state-of-the-art carrier systems for poorly water-soluble bioactive molecules due to their ability to control and enhance the lipase-mediated hydrolysis of encapsulated triglycerides, leading to a subsequent improvement in the solubilisation and absorption of encapsulated species. The first generation of particle-lipid composites (i.e. silica-lipid hybrid (SLH) microparticles) were designed and fabricated by spray drying a silica nanoparticle-stabilised Pickering emulsion, to create a novel three-dimensional architecture, whereby lipid droplets were encapsulated within a porous matrix support. The development of SLH microparticles has acted as a solid foundation for the synthesis of several next generation particle-lipid composites, including polymer-lipid hybrid (PLH) and clay-lipid hybrid systems (CLH), which present lipase with unique lipid microenvironments for optimised lipolysis. This review details the methods utilised to engineer lipid hybrid particles and the strategic investigations that have been performed to determine the influence of key material characteristics on digestion enzyme activity. In doing so, this provides insight into manipulating the mechanism of lipase action through the intelligent design of lipid-based biomaterials for their use in drug delivery formulations and novel functional foods.

Abstract
Solid-state lipid-based formulations offer great potential for the improved oral delivery of poorly water-soluble drugs. This study investigates the use of the high-surface-area clay materials, montmorillonite and laponite, as solid carriers for lipid-based formulations. The unique cation-exchange properties of clay platelets were exploited to preload the ionizable hydrophobic compound, blonanserin, prior to encapsulating a drug-loaded lipid solution. Thus, solid-state lipid-based formulations with dual-loading capabilities were developed and studied. These formulations were compared with simple clay-based lipid formulations, where blonanserin was loaded in the lipid phase only. The drug release behavior of all clay-based formulations was assessed during in vitro dissolution studies under simulated gastric conditions and in vitro fasting intestinal lipolysis studies. Montmorillonite- and laponite-based lipid formulations significantly reduced blonanserin solubilization relative to a control lipid solution and silica-lipid hybrid particles, owing to incomplete drug release from the clay cation-exchange sites. This phenomenon was replicated during in vivo pharmacokinetic studies, whereby the bioavailability of simple clay-based lipid formulations was decreased relative to controls. Importantly, the solid-state dual-loaded montmorillonite-based lipid formulation provided an optimal pharmacokinetic performance, achieving the same degree of bioavailability enhancement as the control lipid solution. These findings indicate the potential of solid-state dual-loaded clay-based lipid formulations for increasing drug loading levels and enhancing the oral absorption of poorly soluble weak base compounds.
