摘要
Through liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS), it is possible to generate drug-rich nanoparticles during the dissolution of conventional amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs). These self-generated nanoparticles may improve the oral absorption of poorly water-soluble drugs by enhancing the drug's apparent solubility and effective membrane permeability. However, due to the high concentration threshold required for LLPS, conventional ASDs that can consistently generate drug-rich nanoparticles during dissolution are rare. More importantly, the quality of these meta-stable drug-rich nanoparticles is hard to control during dissolution, leading to inconsistency in formulation performances. This work has described a continuous twin-screw extrusion process capable of producing nanosized ASD (NASD) formulations that can offer better solubility and permeability enhancements over conventional ASD formulations. Two polymeric carriers, polyvinylpyrrolidone-co-vinyl acetate (PVPVA) and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate (HPMCAS), with a model hydrophobic drug celecoxib (BCS II), were formulated into both ASD and NASD formulations. Compared to the conventional ASD formulation, the prefabricated NASD (sizes ranging between 40 and 200 nm) embedded within a polyol matrix can be rapidly dispersed into a nanoparticle suspension in the presence of aqueous media. The resulting NASDs achieved drug loadings up to 80 % w/w and a maximum of 98 % encapsulation efficiency. Because of the TSE platform's high drug-loading capacity and high scalability, the developed method may be useful for continuously producing personalized nanomedicines.
