Algahtani MS, Ahmad J, Mohammed AA, Ahmad MZ. Extrusion-based 3D printing for development of complex capsular systems for advanced drug delivery. Int J Pharm 2024; 663:124550. [PMID: 39103062 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2024.124550] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2024] [Revised: 07/16/2024] [Accepted: 08/02/2024] [Indexed: 08/07/2024]
Abstract
This review explores the feasibility of extrusion-based 3D printing techniques for producing complex dosage forms (such as capsular shells/devices) that provide controlled drug release and targeted delivery. The current discussion explores how extrusion-based 3D printing techniques, particularly Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM) and Pressure-Assisted Modelling (PAM), offer significant advantages in fabricating such complex dosage forms. This technology enables the fabrication of single-, dual-, or multi-compartment capsular systems with customized designs/geometry of the capsular shell to achieve delayed, sustained, or pulsatile drug release. The impact of customized design/geometry on the biopharmaceutical performances of loaded therapeutics is comprehensively discussed. The potential of 3D printing techniques for different specialized drug delivery purposes like gastric floating, implants, suppositories, and printfills are also addressed. This technique has the potential to significantly improve the therapeutic outcomes, and patient adherence to medication regimens, and pave the way for personalized medicine.

Abstract
3D printing technologies confer an unparalleled degree of control over the material distribution on the structures they produce, which has led them to become an extremely attractive research topic in pharmaceutical dosage form development, especially for the design of personalized treatments. With fine tuning in material selection and careful design, these technologies allow to tailor not only the amount of drug administered but the biopharmaceutical behaviour of the dosage forms as well. While fused deposition modelling (FDM) is still the most studied 3D printing technology in this area, others are gaining more relevance, which has led to many new and exciting dosage forms developed during 2022 and 2023. Considering that these technologies, in time, will join the current manufacturing methods and with the ever-increasing knowledge on this topic, our review aims to explore the advantages and limitations of 3D printing technologies employed in the design and development of pharmaceutical oral dosage forms, giving special focus to the most important aspects governing the resulting drug release profiles.

Design, Synthesis, Evaluation, and Molecular Docking Study of Ascorbic Acid Dual-Coated Omeprazole Pellets and the Antioxidative Effect of Ascorbic Acid on Omeprazole-Induced Renal Injury in an Animal Model. ACS OMEGA 2024; 9:1143-1155. [PMID: 38222658 PMCID: PMC10785076 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.3c07396] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2023] [Revised: 11/30/2023] [Accepted: 12/04/2023] [Indexed: 01/16/2024]
Abstract
The present study was carried out to investigate the antioxidant effect of ascorbic acid on omeprazole (O.P.)-induced acute kidney infection (AKI). Design of experiment (DoE) was employed to fabricate formulations (P1-P8) by the extrusion spheronization technique, and they were evaluated using various analytical techniques. P1-P8 formulations have % drug loading ranging from 56.34 ± 1.10 to 98.67 ± 1.05%, encapsulation efficiency from 70.98 ± 0.96 to 98.67 ± 1.05%, percentage drug release varying from 36.56 ± 1.34 to 93.45 ± 1.45%, Hausner's ratio ranging from 1.026 ± 0.05 to 1.065 ± 0.02%, and Carr's index varying from 2.3 ± 0.07 to 6.1 ± 0.06 g/mL. The optimized formulation (P6) was dual-coated with Eudragit L-100 (5% w/v) and ascorbic acid (2% w/v). A smooth uniform morphology was found after coating, and particle size nonsignificantly changed from 85.31 ± 77.43 to 101.99 ± 65.56 μm. IR spectra showed omeprazole characteristic peaks confirming drug loading, and peaks at 1747.40 and 1611.51 cm-1 confirmed ascorbic acid and Eudragit L-100 coating. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed the crystalline nature, and thermal degradation studies until 500 °C demonstrated increased stability after coating. Cytotoxicity analysis with 97% cell viability revealed the nontoxic behavior of pellets. In vitro dissolution studies of coated pellets showed <20% drug release at pH 1.2 and 99.54% at pH 6.8. Animal studies showed that pure omeprazole showed a nonsignificant decrease in weight, urine output, and fecal output compared to rodents on ascorbic acid pellets. Increased uric acid and creatinine levels in the group on pure omeprazole indicated AKI. Histopathological studies of renal cells also supported these results. The integration of experimental pellet formulation with molecular docking simulations has unveiled the potential of ascorbic acid and omeprazole as highly promising therapeutic agents for addressing oxidative stress and inflammation.

Nutrients 2023; 16:61. [PMID: 38201891 PMCID: PMC10780524 DOI: 10.3390/nu16010061] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2023] [Revised: 12/21/2023] [Accepted: 12/22/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2024] Open
Abstract
The incidence of Inborn Error of Intermediary Metabolism (IEiM) diseases may be low, yet collectively, they impact approximately 6-10% of the global population, primarily affecting children. Precise treatment doses and strict adherence to prescribed diet and pharmacological treatment regimens are imperative to avert metabolic disturbances in patients. However, the existing dietary and pharmacological products suffer from poor palatability, posing challenges to patient adherence. Furthermore, frequent dose adjustments contingent on age and drug blood levels further complicate treatment. Semi-solid extrusion (SSE) 3D printing technology is currently under assessment as a pioneering method for crafting customized chewable dosage forms, surmounting the primary limitations prevalent in present therapies. This method offers a spectrum of advantages, including the flexibility to tailor patient-specific doses, excipients, and organoleptic properties. These elements are pivotal in ensuring the treatment's efficacy, safety, and adherence. This comprehensive review presents the current landscape of available dietary products, diagnostic methods, therapeutic monitoring, and the latest advancements in SSE technology. It highlights the rationale underpinning their adoption while addressing regulatory aspects imperative for their seamless integration into clinical practice.
