The aim of this research was to develop mucoadhesive buccal patches of nicergoline by using Factorial Design of Experiment, in order to provide a sustained release of drug into the systemic circulation. A 33 factorial experimental design was employed for optimization and to study the effect of formulation variables on responses R1 (% swelling index), R2 (% drug content), R3 (mucoadhesion time) and R4 (mucoadhesion strength). In vitro drug release study was performed on the optimized formulations. All the prepared formulations had good mechanical strength, mucoadhesion strength, neutral surface pH and drug content up to 98.17%. In vitro drug release study revealed that F-5 formulation showed promising sustained drug release profile (98.21%) for over 8 h and could be a potential substitute for marketed conventional formulations. The developed formulation (F5) was found to be optimized with considerably good stability and extended drug release profile.

The study on the effect of polymer concentration on in vitro drug release profile revealed that there is a change in vitro drug release parameters (t50, t80, and MDT) with a change in polymer concentration. Fraction of HPMC K4M, HPMC K 100 M, and Ethyl Cellulose were required to be 15, 10, and 7 mg respectively for designing optimized batch F7. The release rate of Colchicine decreased proportionally with an increase in the concentration of ethyl Cellulose and HPMC K100 M. Also the high amount of HPMC K4M leads to the less initial release and sustain effect. A theoretical drug release profile was generated using pharmacokinetic parameters of Colchicine. The value of t50 and t80 of theoretical drug release profile was found to be 242 min and 529 min respectively. The similarity factor f2 was applied between the in vitro drug release profile of optimizing batches and theoretical profile, which indicate a decent similarity between all in vitro drug release profiles (f2 = 68.28 for F7). All the batches except F1shows the value of f2 value within a range. Batch F7 showed the highest f2 (f2 = 68.28) among all the batches and this similarity was also reflected in t50 (≈ 256 min) and t80 (≈ 554 min) values. A 23 full factorial design was applied to systemically optimize in vitro drug release profile. The HPMC K4M (X1), Concentration of HPMC K100 M (X2), and concentration of EC (X3) were selected as independent variables. The time required for 50% drug released (t50), the time required for 80% drug release (t80), similarity factor f2, and mean dissolution time (MDT) were selected as dependent variables. The results of full factorial design indicate that the HPMC K4M (X1), Concentration of HPMC K100 M (X2), and concentration of EC (X3) have a significant effect on in vitro drug release profile. To find out the release mechanism the in vitro release data were fitted in the Korsmeyer-Peppas equation. All Batches except F1 and F3 show Anomalous diffusion-controlled release (combined mechanism of diffusion and case II transport).

AbstractThe objective of this article is to optimize the similarity factor within immediate release (IR) and modified release (MR) of in vitro drug release profiles. The least square method is used to minimize the difference between empirical and regression curve fitting data of in vitro IR/MR drug release profiles. An estimation of percentage drug release at intermediate timepoints has been done to improve the similarity factor $f_{2}$ f 2 using linear curve fit method. In this study linear regression model is used to analyze the similarity factor $f_{2}$ f 2 for Nitrofurantoin MR Capsules, Venlafaxine HCl MR Tablets and Lurasidone IR Tablets in order to exhibit the significance as well as similarity owing to the consideration of extra intervening timepoints. This linear regression model may help pharmaceutical industries to examine the inside comparison of IR/MR in vitro drug release profile with few modifications in timepoint selection to improve similarity factor $f_{2}$ f 2 .

Polymeric Nanocarrier

Theranostic micelles and polymeric nanocarrier-based drug delivery system are well known techniques that involve a diagnostic agent in polymeric micelles for a combination of therapy by using a co-delivery approach which can help in detection of a cancer cell in an early stage, increase killing effect and suppress multi-drug resistance (MDS) for better therapeutic effectiveness. The aim of this study is to develop a dual modality micellar system using D-α-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS) as a nanocarrier for co-delivery of docetaxel as a model chemotherapeutic drug and coumarin-6 as a model fluorescence imaging agent for simultaneous cancer imaging and therapy in an early stage. The theranostic micelles were prepared by a solvent casting method and characterized by their particle size, drug loading, drug encapsulation efficiency (EE) and in-vitro drug release profile. These dual modality micellar system TPDC6 micelles were successfully developed with average particle size of 79.59±0.57 nm in diameter and drug loading up to 15.46±1.02 % (EE of 78.99±1.26%) and 9.83±0.76 % (EE of 36.20±0.89%) for docetaxel and coumarin-6 respectively. Besides, the in-vitro drug release profile of the micelles revealed a desired sustained and controlled drug release manner for both docetaxel (21.62±0.36%) and coumarin-6 (10.70±0.46%). In conclusion, the micelles size obtained is in the favourable range for passive targeting through enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect and the drug loading and encapsulation efficiency attained are adequate for therapy and diagnosis purposes on cancer cells. This dual modality system is taking great advantages for tumour imaging and inhibition of tumour growth which is very important for early cancer detection.

Drug Mechanism

Extended release formulation of levetiracetam is approved by the food and drug administration as an add-on to other antiepileptic drugs for adults with partial onset seizures. The main objective of present study was to developed and evaluate matrix tablet of levetiracetam by using various grade of hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) polymer. Various trials were taken by using HPMC K4M, K15M, and K100M.  Different parameters like Physical properties, FTIR, DSC, in vitro drug release profile and swelling index were determined. In vitro drug release was performed in phosphate buffer pH 6.8. The in vitro release profile was compared with model independent method. Stability studies were performed as per ICH guidelines for 1 month at (40 °C ± 2 °C/75 % ± 5 % RH).Data analysis was performed for determination of drug mechanism and order of drug release. The in vitro drug release profile of optimized formulation was compared with marketed formulation LEVERAXR. The regression value for zero order, first order, Higuchi and Korsmeyer Peppas was found to be 0.9604, 0.9245, 0.9889 and 0.9729, respectively. Similarity factor (f2) and dissimilarity factor (f1) was found to be 88.61 and 1.82, respectively. The FTIR and DSC study shows that there is no chemical interaction between levetiracetam and excipients. From the data analysis, it was concluded that optimized formulation follow Higuchi model having diffusion mechanism. The order of drug release was considered zero  order release. Stability study shows that there was no remarkable change in drug release after 1 month. It is concluded that the formulation is stable at accelerated conditions.

Macromolecular Prodrug

A macromolecular prodrug of didanosine (ddI) for oral administration was synthesized and evaluated for in-vitro drug release profile. Didanosine was first coupled to 2-hydroxy ethyl methacrylate (HEMA) through a succinic spacer to form HEMA-Suc-ddI monomeric conjugate which was subsequently polymerized to yield Poly(HEMA-Suc-ddI) conjugate. The structures of the synthesized compounds were characterized by FT-IR, Mass and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. The prodrug was subjected for in-vitro drug release studies in buffers of pH 1.2 and 7.4 mimicking the upper and lower GIT. The results showed that the drug release from the polymeric backbone takes place in a sustained manner over a period of 24 h and the amount of drug released was comparatively higher at pH 7.4 indicating that the drug release takes place predominantly at the alkaline environment of the lower GIT rather than at the acidic environment of the upper GIT. This pH dependent sustained drug release behavior of the prodrug may be capable of reducing the dose limiting toxicities by maintaining the plasma drug level within the therapeutic range and increasing t1/2 of ddI. Moreover, the bioavailability of the drug should be improved as the prodrug releases ddI predominantly in the alkaline environment which will reduce the degradation of ddI in the stomach acid.

Study Results

This study aimed to improve the dissolution rate of aceclofenac and release the drug in a controlled manner over a period of 24 hours. Matrix tablets were prepared by direct compression method, using hydrophilic polymers (HPMC/guar gum). Matrix tablets were prepared by wet granulation method using different hydrophilic polymers (HPMC/guar gum). Tablets were evaluated for in vitro drug release profile in phosphate buffer with pH 6.8 (without enzymes). The thickness and hardness of prepared tablets were 3.23 ± 0.035 to 3.28 ± 0.008 mm and 3.26 ± 0.115 to 3.60 ± 0.200 kg/cm2, respectively. The friability was within the acceptable limits of pharmacopoeial specifications (0.31 to 0.71%), which indicates the good mechanical strength of the tablets. Drug release was retarded with an increase in polymer concentration due to the gelling property of polymers. The in vitro drug release from the proposed system was best explained by Higuchi’s model, indicating that drug release from tablets displayed a diffusion-controlled mechanism. The results clearly indicate that guar gum could be a potential hydrophilic carrier in developing oral controlled drug delivery systems. Based on the study results, formulations F8 was selected as the best formulation.
