Objective: The main objective of the present research work was to develop systematically the Self Micro Emulsifying Drug Delivery system of BCS Class IV drug in a Quality by Design framework. Methods: The quality by design-based formulation development proceeds with defining the Quality Target Product Profile and Critical Quality Attributes of dosage form with appropriate justification for the same. The statistical Mixture design was used for the development of the formulation. The independent variables selected for the design were Oleic acid, Labrasol and PEG 6000, whereas droplet size (nm), emulsification time (sec), % drug loading and % drug release at 15 min were considered as the potential quality attributes of the Self Micro Emulsifying System. The eight different batches of Etravirine-Self Micro Emulsifying systems (ETV-SMEDDS) were prepared and checked for the Critical Quality Attributes. The simultaneous optimization of the formulation was done by the global desirability approach. Results: The characterization report obtained for all the different batches of formulation was analyzed statistically by fitting into regression models. The statistically significant models determined for droplet size (nm) (R2= 0.96 and p-0.1022), emulsification time (sec) (R2= 0.99 and p-0.0267), % drug loading (R2= 0.93 and p-0.1667) and % drug release at 15 min (R2= 0.96 and p-0.0911) and were statistically significant. The maximal global desirability value obtained was 0.9415 and the value indicates, the selected factors and responses have a good correlation and are significant enough for optimization and prediction of best formulation. Conclusion: The QbD approach utilized during the development of ETV-SMEEDS facilitated the identification of Critical Material Attributes and their significant impact on the Critical Quality Attributes of SMEDDS. The concept of building quality into product through the QbD application was utilized successfully in the formulation development.

A key challenge for nanoparticles-based drug delivery system is to achieve manageable drug release in tumour cell. In this study, a versatile system combining photothermal therapy and controllable drug release for tumour cells using temperature-sensitive block copolymer coupled Au NRs@SiO2 is reported. While the Au NRs serve as hyperthermal agent and the mesoporous silica was used to improve the drug loading and decrease biotoxicity. The block copolymer acted as “gatekeeper” to regulate the release of model drug (Doxorubicin hydrochloride, DOX). Through in vivo and in vitro experiments, we achieved the truly controllable drug release and photothermal therapy with the collaborative effect of the three constituents of the nanocomposites. The reported nanocomposites pave the way to high-performance controllable drug release and photothermal therapy system.

In this study, a transferrin/folic acid double-targeting graphene oxide drug delivery system loaded with doxorubicin was designed. Graphene oxide was prepared by ultrasound improved Hummers method and was modified with Pluronic F68, folic acid, and transferrin to decrease its toxicity and to allow dual-targeting. The results show that the double target drug delivery system (TFGP*DOX) has good and controllable drug delivery performance with no toxicity. Moreover, TFGP*DOX has a better inhibitory effect on SMMC-7721 cells than does a single target drug delivery system (FGP*DOX). The results of drug release analysis and cell inhibition studies showed that TFGP*DOX has a good sustained release function that can reduce the drug release rate in blood circulation over time and improve the local drug concentration in or near a targeted tumor. Therefore, the drug loading system (TFGP*DOX) has potential application value in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma.

In order to achieve a controlled release drug delivery system (DDS) for cancer therapy, a pH and redox dual-responsive mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN)-sulfur (S)-S- chitosan (CS) DDS was prepared via an amide reaction of dithiodipropionic acid with amino groups on the surface of MSN and amino groups on the surface of CS. Using salicylic acid (SA) as a model drug, SA@MSN-S-S-CS was prepared by an impregnation method. Subsequently, the stability, swelling properties and drug release properties of the DDS were studied by x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared microspectroscopy, size and zeta potential as well as Brunauer–Emmett–Teller surface area. Pore size and volume of the composites decreased after drug loading but maintained a stable structure. The calculated drug loading rate and encapsulation efficiency were 8.17% and 55.64%, respectively. The in vitro drug release rate was 21.54% in response to glutathione, and the release rate showed a marked increase as the pH decreased. Overall, double response functions of MSN-S-S-CS had unique advantages in controlled drug delivery, and may be a new clinical application of DDS in cancer therapy.

Present research work was aimed to enhance aqueous solubility and dissolution rate of olanzapine by solid self nano emulsifying drug delivery system(S-SNEDDS). Olanzapine is a BCS class II drug having 65% oral bioavailability; it is used in the treatment of psychosis, depression and mania conditions. Oils, Surfactants, Co surfactants were selected depending upon the saturated solubility of olanzapine in those components; excipients were screened depending on olanzapine solubility in various oils, surfactants and co surfactants. Surfactant: co surfactant {Smix} ratios i.e., 3:1 and 4:1 were prepared to determine nano emulsion regions and also to formulate liquid self nano emulsifying drug delivery system (L-SNEDDS). Pseudo ternary phase diagram were plotted by using Triplot version 4.1.2 software, nano emulsion region was determined and evaluated. Formulations were designed based on saturated solubility of olanzapine and Pseudo ternary phase diagram using various ratios of oils [Capryol 90], surfactants [Kolliphor EL], co surfactants [Lauroglycol 90] depending on its solubility and nano emulsion formation four formulations were developed which are further selected for characterisation of L-SNEDDS like robustness to dilution, self emulsification, determination of droplet size, PDI, Drug loading efficacy, zeta potential and also Invitro drug release. Among those four formulations, F1 (SB184J 4:6) was optimum because compared to other three formulations F3 gave best results in terms of droplet size (66nm) with PDI (0.24), Invitro drug release, dissolution rate of F1 SNEDDS having (88.201± 0.25%). Invitro drug release of F1 formulation was compared with that of Olanzapine [API] (45.281± 0.52%) the results indicating that there is a increase in solubility and dissolution rate of olanzapine by 2.2 times more compared to pure olanzapine (API). F1 (SB184J 4:6) were converted into S-SNEDDS by adsorption process by addition porous carriers (Aerosil 200). Formulated S-SNEDDS were undergone various evaluation parameters and also reconstitution parameters to determine Droplet size and Invitro drug release of solid F1 (SB184J4:6) formulation. The results of present study demonstrates that olanzapine SNEDDS has an ability and potential to enhance solubility and dissolution rate.

Objective: In the present research, the main objective was to investigate the possibility of designing, fabricating, and optimizing a disposable ocular film-based drug delivery system. Methods: Moxifloxacin hydrochloride was loaded onto the prepared disposable ocular films by the soaking method. Results: The drug loading conditions were studied, and it was found that the maximum drug loading was achieved in 3 hours at pH 6.5 of the drug solution. It was also observed that the drug loading efficacy and in vitro drug release profile can be monitored by varying the ocular film composition. The ocular films were then characterized for thickness uniformity, size uniformity, weight uniformity, swelling index, surface pH, breaking on elongation, folding endurance, bio-adhesive strength, transparency, drug loading efficiency, moisture content, morphological characteristics, and in vitro drug release profiles. Conclusion: Based on the results, it was concluded that the developed disposable ocular films demonstrate a significant prolonged drug release within the therapeutic range of up to 12 h, which is promising as a novel disposable contact lens-based ocular drug delivery system.
