Fluconazole-Loaded Ibuprofen In Situ Gel-Based Oral Spray for Oropharyngeal Candidiasis Treatment
AAPS PharmSciTech. 2024 Apr 19;25(5):89. doi: 10.1208/s12249-024-02804-y.ABSTRACTOral candidiasis is a fungal infection affecting the oral mucous membrane, and this research specifically addresses on a localized treatment through fluconazole-loaded ibuprofen in situ gel-based oral spray. The low solubility of ibuprofen is advantageous for forming a gel when exposed to an aqueous phase. The 1% w/w fluconazole-loaded in situ gel oral sprays were developed utilizing various concentrations of ibuprofen in N-methyl pyrrolidone. The prepared solutions underwent evaluation for viscosity, surface tension, contact angle, water tole...

Novel Drug Delivery Approaches for the Localized Treatment of Cervical Cancer
AAPS PharmSciTech. 2024 Apr 11;25(4):85. doi: 10.1208/s12249-024-02801-1.ABSTRACTCervical cancer (CC) is the fourth leading cancer type in females globally. Being an ailment of the birth canal, primitive treatment strategies, including surgery, radiation, or laser therapy, bring along the risk of infertility, neonate mortality, premature parturition, etc. Systemic chemotherapy led to systemic toxicity. Therefore, delivering a smaller cargo of therapeutics to the local site is more beneficial in terms of efficacy as well as safety. Due to the regeneration of cervicovaginal mucus, conventional dosage forms come with the limi...

The Effect of Inflammatory Bowel Disease and Irritable Bowel Syndrome on Pravastatin Oral Bioavailability: In vivo and in silico evaluation using bottom-up wbPBPK modeling
AAPS PharmSciTech. 2024 Apr 11;25(4):86. doi: 10.1208/s12249-024-02803-z.ABSTRACTThe common disorders irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) can modify the drugs' pharmacokinetics via their induced pathophysiological changes. This work aimed to investigate the impact of these two diseases on pravastatin oral bioavailability. Rat models for IBS and IBD were used to experimentally test the effects of IBS and IBD on pravastatin pharmacokinetics. Then, the observations made in rats were extrapolated to humans using a mechanistic whole-body physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (wbPBPK) model. The r...
