Successful oral delivery of poorly water-soluble drugs both depends on the intraluminal behavior of drugs and of appropriate advanced drug delivery systems
European Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Volume 137, 104967, ISSN 0928-0987, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ejps.2019.104967. - sep 2019
In this excellent review article issued from the UNGAP program (European Network on Understanding Gastro-intestinal Absorption-related Process) you will find relevant and up-to-date information on:
Poorly water soluble drugs and the link between physico-chemical properties and solubility, lipophilicity and permeability
Technologies to increase solubility and dissolution rate: salt formation, amorphous solid dispersions, lipid-based formulations
How to avoid precipitation and create a concentration gradient to improve absorption
Methods for modelling the performance such as Molecular Dynamics Simulations
In vitro methods for solubility and dissolution assessments
Methods to explore the absorption in the GI tract: GI concentration-time profile, in vitro digestion, in vitro models coupling dissolution and permeation, mucus diffusion
Impact of molecularly dissolved drug versus apparently dissolved drug (ie in colloidal structure)
Synergising excipients to boost skin delivery
ONdrugDelivery Magazine, Issue 99, pp 54-58. - aou 2019
This article focuses on Transcutol® P, Capryol® and Lauroglycol™ as their synergism brings eye-opening benefits in topical formulations.

In this case study using curcuminoids as model drug, the authors show that in vitro lipolysis test is a useful tool to predict in vivo performance
Investigation of the permeation enhancer strategy on benzoylaconitine transdermal patch: the relationship between transdermal enhancement strength and physicochemical properties of permeation enhancer
Eur J Pharm Sci. 2019 Oct 1;138:105009. doi: 10.1016/j.ejps.2019.105009. Epub 2019 Jul 12. - jui 2019
In this study several permeation enhancers are evaluated for their ability to permeate high molecular weight benzoylaconitine. The results showed that Plurol® Oleique CC 497 enabled the highest permeation. FT-IR studies demonstrated that the enhancer had strong interactions with the Stratum corneum, both in the hydrophilic and lipophilic regions. The optimized patch formulation showed excellent analgesic and antiinflammatory effect.

A Proof of Concept for 3D Printing of Solid Lipid-Based Formulations of Poorly Water-Soluble Drugs to Control Formulation Dispersion Kinetics
Pharmaceutical Research volume 36, Article number: 102 doi: 10.1007/s11095-019-2639-y. - mai 2019
In this study, the authors show that solid SMEDDS can be produced with a 3D printing process and solid and semi-solid lipid excipients. The proof of concept is established with cinnarizine and fenofibrate as model drugs.
