Enhancing oral bioavailability of dasatinib via supersaturable SNEDDS: Investigation of…
Abstract
Dasatinib (DASA), a potent second-generation multitarget kinase inhibitor marketed as Sprycel® (Tablet), is limited by poor oral bioavailability (14–24 %) and dose-related gastrointestinal side effects. A supersaturable self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery system (su-SNEDDS) designed to…

Unveiling tablet structural changes: A micro computed tomography analysis of aqueous coating effects
Abstract
Tablet coating with aqueous solvents represents a well-established environmentally sustainable alternative to coatings based on organic solvents. However, this practice requires a careful evaluation of potential quality issues, such as increased porosity and crack formation stemming from…

Formulation of minitablets with personalised dissolution profile by fluid-bed granulation of drug…
Abstract
Transforming poorly soluble active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) into a nanoparticulate form is a proven way of improving their dissolution characteristics. The preparation of API nanosuspensions is commonly achieved by wet-stirred media milling. The challenge lies in converting the…

Complemental Hard Modeling in Raman spectroscopy – A case study on titanium dioxide-free coating…
Abstract
Tablets are coated for taste or odor modification, for modified release profiles or as a protective layer to increase the stability. Here, titanium dioxide is frequently added as a coating component due to its opaque properties. Furthermore, its Raman activity makes it an integral part…

Development and Evaluation of Lactose-Free Single-Unit and Multiple-Unit Preparations of a BCS Class…
Abstract
Background/Objectives: The aim of the present study was to develop lactose-free formulations of rivaroxaban, a novel oral anticoagulant used for the treatment and prevention of blood clotting. As a BCS Class II drug, rivaroxaban is characterized by poor solubility in aqueous media, posing…

Continuous twin-screw melt granulation of drug-loaded electrospun fibers
Abstract
Electrospinning (ES) is a promising continuous formulation strategy to produce amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs) and thereby improve the dissolution of poorly water-soluble drugs. However, processing the electrospun material into solid dosage forms (e.g. tablets) is challenging due to…

Posaconazole nanocrystals dry powder inhalers for the local treatment of invasive pulmonary…
Abstract
Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis poses a significant threat to immunocompromised patients, characterized by high mortality rates. Posaconazole (PSZ), a second-generation triazole antifungal, exhibits broad-spectrum activity but suffers from limited pulmonary concentrations and notable…

Influence of multiple compression phases during tableting of spray dried Saccharomyces cerevisiae on…
Abstract
The viability of probiotic microorganisms is essential for their health-promoting effects and must be preserved in the best possible way during the production of the final dosage form, such as tablets. This applies to both drying and tableting. Saccharomyces cerevisiae is spray-dried…

Mucoadhesion across scales: Towards the design of protein-based adhesives
Abstract
Mucoadhesion is a special case of bioadhesion in which a material adheres to soft mucosal tissues. This review elucidates our current understanding of mucoadhesion across length, time, and energy scales by focusing on relevant structural features of mucus. We highlight the importance of…

Material-Sparing Approach to Predict Tablet Capping Under Processing Compression Conditions Based on…
Abstract
Present study evaluates the usability of compaction simulation-based mechanical models as a material-sparing approach to predict tablet capping under processing compression conditions using Acetaminophen (APAP) and Ibuprofen (IBU). Measured mechanical properties were evaluated using…
