Towards more tolerable subcutaneous administration: Review of contributing factors for improving combination product design
Adv Drug Deliv Rev. 2024 Apr 1:115301. doi: 10.1016/j.addr.2024.115301. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSubcutaneous (SC) injections can be associated with local pain and discomfort that is subjective and may affect treatment adherence and overall patient experience. With innovations increasingly focused on finding ways to deliver higher doses and volumes (≥2 mL), there is a need to better understand the multiple intertwined factors that influence pain upon SC injection. As a priority for the SC Drug Development & Delivery Consortium, this manuscript provides a comprehensive review of known attributes from published li...

Therapeutic delivery systems for rheumatoid arthritis based on hydrogel carriers
Adv Drug Deliv Rev. 2024 Mar 26;208:115300. doi: 10.1016/j.addr.2024.115300. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTRheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease suffered by millions of people worldwide. It can significantly affect the patient's quality of life by damaging not only the joints but also organs such as the lungs and the heart. RA is normally treated using nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), glucocorticoids, disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs), and biologics. These active agents often cause side effects and offer low efficacy due to their lack of specificity and limited retention time. In an ...

Challenges and progress related to gene editing in rare skin diseases
Adv Drug Deliv Rev. 2024 Mar 23:115294. doi: 10.1016/j.addr.2024.115294. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTGenodermatoses represent a large group of inherited skin disorders encompassing clinically-heterogeneous conditions that manifest in the skin and other organs. Depending on disease variant, associated clinical manifestations and secondary complications can severely impact patients' quality of life and currently available treatments are transient and not curative. Multiple emerging approaches using CRISPR-based technologies offer promising prospects for therapy. Here, we explore current advances and challenges related to g...
