The aim of this study was to enhance the solubility of Aceclofenac with a new polyvinyl caprolactam-polyvinyl acetate-polyethylene glycol graft co-polymer (Soloplus ®) and formulate it in controlled release (CR) tablet dosage form by direct compression method with HPMC K-15. Solid dispersions were prepared in different ratio of Aceclofenac and Soloplus ® as F1, F2 and F3 with different polymer ratios i.e. 30%, 50%, and 70% respectively. All the quality control tests were performed for the prepared controlled release tablets. Drug polymer interaction studies of Aceclofenac and Soloplus ® were carried using FTIR and XRD. Dissolution study was carried out against Alkaris ® as a standard reference. The formulation F3 showed optimum results and followed zero order kinetics. The Soloplus ® improved the solubility of the drug and the CR formulation enhanced the delivery in a sustained manner. Hence, the CR formulation enhanced the delivery of aceclofenac in a sustained manner, thereby an efficient drug delivery may lead to an effective anti-inflammatory activity.

The molecular interactions between compound and polymeric carriers are expected to highly contribute to high drug load and good physical stability of solid dispersions. In this study, a series of amorphous solid dispersions (ASD) of Curcumin (Cur) were prepared with different polymers by the solvent evaporation method. With the carrier polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), the amorphous solid dispersion system exhibits a better solubility and stability than that with poloxamers and HP-β-CD due to the strong drug-polymer interaction. The drug/polymer interaction and their binding sites were investigated by combined experimental (XRD, DSC, FTIR, SEM, Raman, and 1H-NMR) and molecular dynamics simulation techniques. The Curcumin ASD demonstrated enhanced bioavailability by 11-fold and improved anti-inflammatory activities by the decrease in cytokine production (MMP-9, IL-1β, IL-6, VEGF, MIP-2, and TNF-α) compared to the raw Curcumin. The integration of experimental and modeling techniques is a powerful tool for the rational design of formulation development.
