Priming with oncolytic adenovirus followed by anti-PD-1 and paclitaxel treatment leads to improved anti-cancer efficacy in the 3D TNBC model
Eur J Pharm Biopharm. 2024 Apr 30:114300. doi: 10.1016/j.ejpb.2024.114300. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTriple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is considered one of the most incurable malignancies due to its clinical characteristics, including high invasiveness, high metastatic potential, proneness to relapse, and poor prognosis. Therefore, it remains a critical unmet medical need. On the other hand, poor delivery efficiency continues to reduce the efficacy of anti-cancer therapeutics developed against solid tumours using various strategies, such as genetically engineered oncolytic vectors used as nanocarriers. The study was...

Influence of type of vehicle on dermal penetration efficacy of hydrophilic, amphiphilic, lipophilic model drugs
Eur J Pharm Biopharm. 2024 Apr 27:114305. doi: 10.1016/j.ejpb.2024.114305. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe influence of the vehicle on the dermal penetration efficacy of three different active ingredient (AI) surrogates (hydrophilic, amphiphilic, lipophilic model drugs), that were incorporated into these vehicles, was investigated with the ex vivo porcine ear model, which allowed to assess time and space resolved dermal penetration profiles of the AI. Fifteen different vehicles, including classical vehicles (hydrogel, oleogel, o/w cream, w/o ointment, amphiphilic cream) and innovative vehicles were included into the stud...

Hydrogel formats to model potential drug interactions occurring at the subcutaneous injection site

Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTWe have previously developed an in vitro instrument, termed subcutaneous injection site simulator (SCISSOR), that can be used to monitor release properties of an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) and formulation components of a medicine designed for SC injection. Initial studies to validate the SCISSOR instrument applications used a simple hyaluronic acid (HA) hydrogel to monitor early release events. We now report a type of cross-linked HA that can, when combined with HA, provide a hydrogel (HA-XR) with optical cl...

Development of a topical treatment for tegumentary leishmaniasis using 8-hydroxyquinoline
Eur J Pharm Biopharm. 2024 Apr 26:114306. doi: 10.1016/j.ejpb.2024.114306. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIn the context of neglected diseases, tegumentary leishmaniasis (TL) presents an emerging and re-emerging character in the national territory and in the world. The treatment of TL has limitations, such as intravenous administration route, high toxicity, and high treatment costs. Thus, several researchers work on new therapeutic strategies to improve the effectiveness of the treatment of leishmaniasis. In this light, the present study used a topical formulation, containing 8-hydroquinoline (8-HQN), for the treatment of B...

Development of a high throughput oxidation profiling strategy for monoclonal antibody products
Eur J Pharm Biopharm. 2024 Apr 25:114301. doi: 10.1016/j.ejpb.2024.114301. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTOxidation is one of the most common degradation pathways of biopharmaceutics, potentially leading to altered product stability, pharmacokinetics, reduced biological activity and/or an increased immunogenicity. However, it is often insufficiently assessed in early development stages, leaving potential molecule liabilities undiscovered. Aim of the present work was the development of a high throughput oxidation profiling strategy, applicable throughout various stages of biopharmaceutical development. The study demonstrates...
