Toward improving the in vitro in vivo correlation of lipid-based formulations using a simplified gastro-intestinal lipolysis protocol
AAPS - Oct 2024
Lipid-based formulations (LBF) enhance the oral bioavailability of poorly water-soluble drugs by maintaining them in a solubilized state during digestion. This study aims to establish a robust protocol to evaluate the impact of gastro-intestinal lipolysis on LBF performance, using cinnarizine as a model drug.
Platform technology for introducing liquid solubilizers in tablet formulations
AAPS - Oct 2024
Lipid-based excipients, which are often liquid at room temperature, can enhance solubility and permeation. This study aims to incorporate a liquid lipid excipient into a solid dosage form for the poorly water-soluble drug ondansetron hydrochloride dihydrate (OHD).
Comparing the effect of adding Gelucire® 48/16 and Gelucire® 50/13 in amorphous solid dispersion: a case study with ticagrelor
CRS - Jul 2024
When amorphous solid dispersion (ASD) are produced by hot melt extrusion (HME), the use of a neat polymer requires high process temperatures, and the drug release is not always complete. Adding Gelucire® in the formula is a promising strategy to address these issues.
Rheology as a tool for characterizing topical product formulations: impact of solubilizer variation on stability and structure
CRS - Jul 2024
The use of solubilizers in a topical formulation helps solubilization of poorly soluble APIs. Therefore, it is essential to have a formulation chassis that can be modulated to incorporate this quantity of solubilizer. In this poster, the influence of different excipients as solubilizers and their variation on the stability and rheological properties of topical creams is investigated.
Implementation of an at-line nanoparticle size analyzer in a continuous nano-manufacturing line considering critical measurement and process conditions
PBP - Mar 2024
Nanopharmaceuticals' size is a critical quality attribute. This work provides insights about the implementation of an at-line particle size analyzer in a continuous manufacturing line of solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) and nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC).
Formulation Components' Role in Shaping Continuous Nanocarrier Production through Impingement Jet Mixing
PBP - Mar 2024
Flash nanoemulsification with impingement jet mixing is a technique used to produce nanocarriers. This study optimized the nanocarrier formulation to facilitate the manufacturing process and monitoring.
Precision Engineering of Lipid-Based Nanosystems via Impingement Jet Mixing

Advantages of combining polymers and lipids in extrusion processes
PBP - Mar 2024
Lipid excipients lower the glass transition temperature of polymers, enabling hot-melt extrusion at lower engine torque for better processability. Different polymers and lipid combinations have been tested to explore their potential in extrusion processes.
Formulating pharmaceutical topical dosage forms with high level of solvents and minimal quantity of water
PBP - Mar 2024
This poster dives into the formulation of topical dosage forms containing the maximum amount of solvent and the minimum amount of water, while ensuring their stability upon storage.
