Multifunctional Cyclodextrins Carriers for Pulmonary Drug Delivery: Prospects and Potential

Cyclodextrin (CD) is one of the most explored complexing agents in the pharmaceutical sector to improve different therapeutic agents’ solubility, stability, and bioavailability. Additionally, CDs and CDs-derivatives are easily tailored to fabricate diverse multifunctional carrier systems such as micelles, liposomes, niosomes, polymeric nanoparticles, lipid nanoparticles, and porous microparticles to circumvent the problems associated with both drug substances as well as carrier engineering. Moreover, the recent development in materials sciences, nanotechnology, molecular biology, and supramolecular chemistry greatly influenced the pharmaceutical application of CDs. The basis of this chapter is to provide insights into the potential of these multifaceted complexing agents for pulmonary delivery. This chapter summarizes and interprets scientific data on inhaled CDs-based carriers, which have been published in recent years. Initially, this chapter provides basic details on CDs and CD derivatives, followed by miscellaneous practical applications in pharmaceutical industries. In the subsequent section, the pulmonary applications of CDs are cautiously discussed with particular emphasis on aerosolization fate, powder dispersion behavior, pharmacokinetic outcomes, and long-term stability performance. The last section discusses the prospects and potential for translating inhaled CDs-based carrier systems. The bottom-line marks CD-based carriers for the growth of pulmonary medicines in the upcoming years.
