Principles of Drug Delivery
Drug Delivery Definition – The appropriate administration of drugs through various routes in the body for the purpose of improving health – It is highly interdisciplinary – It is not a young field – It has recently evolved to take into consideration Drug physico-chemical properties Body effects and interactions Improvement of drug effect Patient comfort and well being Controlled Drug Delivery
Drug Delivery Conventional Enteral Parenteral Controlled Sustained Extended Site-specific Other Pulsatile
Oral Administration Advantages – Patient: Convenience, not invasive, higher compliance – Manufacture: well established processes, available infrastructure Disadvantages – Unconscious patients cannot take dose – Low solubility – Low permeability – Degradation by GI enzymes or flora – First pass metabolism – Food interactions – Irregular absorption
Oral Administration Traditional oral delivery systems – – – Tablets Capsules Soft gelatin capsules Suspensions Elixirs
Buccal/Sublingual Advantages – By-pass First pass metabolism – Rapid absorption – Low enzymatic activity Disadvantages – Discomfort during dissolution – Probability of swallowinglost of effect – Small doses Traditional delivery system/devices – Tablets – Chewing gum
Example from Industry: Generex Biotechnology Oral-Lyn: liquid formulation of human insulin administered to buccal mucosa by aerosolization – Drug carried in lipid micelles
Rectal Advantages – By-pass first pass metabolism – Useful for children Disadvantages – Absorption depends on disease state – Degradation by bacterial flora – Uncomfortable Traditional delivery system/devices – Suppository – Enema
Example from Industry: Valeant Pharmaceuticals Diastat Acu. Dial: diazepam rectal gel
Intravenous (IV) Advantages – Drug 100% bioavailable – Rapid response – Total control of blood concentration – Maximize incorporation of degradable drugs – By-pass FPM Disadvantages – Invasive – Trained personnel – Possible toxicity due to incorrect dosing – sterility Traditional delivery system/devices – Injection-bolus – IV bag - infusion
Subcutaneous Advantages – Patient selfadministration – Slow, complete absorption – By-pass FPM Disadvantages – Invasive – Irritation, inflammation – Maximum dose volume - 2 m. L
Intramuscular Advantages – Patient can administer the drug himself – Larger volume than subcutaneous – By-pass first pass metabolism Disadvantages – Invasive – patient disconfort – Irritation, inflamation – May require some training
Inhalers Advantages – By-pass FPM – Gases are rapidly absorbed Disadvantages – Solids and liquids can be absorbed if size is below 0. 5 um
Example from Industry: Nektar Therapeutics aerosol particle Pulmonary delivery oflung cell Insulin – Amorphous aerosol particles with ~1μm diameters Glass stabilizer insulin molecules solubilized drug molecules capillary cell
Transdermal Advantages – Local effect – Ease of administration Disadvantages – Low absorption for some drugs – May cause allergic reactions Requirements – Low dosage <10 mg/m. L – MW< 1, 000
Factors Influencing the Selection of the Delivery Route Drug physico-chemical properties – Drug molecular size (molecular weight) – Half-life – Chemical stability – Loss of biological activity in aqueous solution Proteins – Denaturation, degradation
Example from Industry: 3 M Company Microstructured Transdermal System: MTS – Microneedle system – Drug-in-adhesive technology platform (a) 3 M microneedle system and (b) histological section of microneedles in guinea pig skin
Factors Influencing the Selection of the Delivery Route – Solubility in aqueous solution (hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity) p. H p. Ka - ionization Temperature Concentration Crystalinity Particle size State of hydration
Factors Influencing the Selection of the Delivery Route Drug biological interactions – Sensitive to FPM – Low membrane permeabiltiy Efflux pumps (MRP, MDR) – cancer drugs Hydrophilicity High-density charge – – Enzymatic degradation Bacterial degradation Half-life Side effects Irritation
Factors Influencing the Selection of the Delivery Route Desired pharmacological effect – Local topical, vaginal – Systemic oral, buccal, IV, SC, IM, rectal, nasal – Immediate response IV, SC, IM, nasal – Dose size – Drug molecular size
Manufacture of Classical Oral Delivery Systems Formulation – combination of active ingredients with the appropriate excipients Excipients – inactive ingredients employed for the purpose of dilution, protection, stability, controlled release, taste, fillers, coloring, disintegration, etc
Manufacture Process for Tablets and Capsules Wet Blending Granulation Milling Compression Coating Labeling Packing Dry
Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics Pharmacokinetics Design of dosage regimen • Where? • How much? • How often? • How long? Pharmacodynamics Plasma Concentration Effects Plasma refers to the clear supernatant fluid that results from blood after the cellular components have been removed
Plasma concentration (mg/m. L) Plasma Concentration Toxicity Therapeutic window No therapeutic effect Time (min)
Plasma concentration (mg/m. L) Unsuccessful therapy Successful therapy Time (min)
Magnitude of Drug Response Depends upon concentration achieved at the site of action – Dosage – Extent of absorption – Distribution to the site – Rate/extent of elimination
From the Site of Delivery to Elimination… steps in drug delivery, absorption, distribution and elimination Drug Delivery – Selection of drug delivery route Knowledge of physicochemical properties – Design of dosing regimen Absorption – Knowledge of PK and PD First pass effect MDR or MRP
From the Site of Delivery to Elimination… steps in drug delivery, absorption, distribution and elimination Distribution – Drugs must reach the site of action Tissue Plasma Depends upon drug binding capabilities Elimination Metabolism – Liver, kidneys, cells Excretion – Kidneys – Feces
Intravenous Injection Gastrointestinal Tract Circulatory System Intramuscular Injection Subcutaneous Injection Tissues Metabolic Sites Excretion Oral Administration
Absorption of drugs could vary within different administration routes 500 mg dose given – – intramuscularly orally **to the same subject on separate occasions Biological barriers greatly affect the extent of drug absorption
Absorption of drugs could vary within the same administration route
Important Concepts Volume of distribution – apparent volume into which a drug distributes in the body at equilibrium – direct measure of the extent of distribution – V = amount of drug in the body/Plasma drug concentration
Mathematical Modeling of Drug Disposition Single compartment with absorption Two compartments with absorption Physiological Models
Single Compartment Model Assumptions: – Body one compartment characterized by a volume of distribution (Vd) – Drug is confined to the plasma (small V) C/C 0 absorption C, Vd elimination k, C t
One-Compartment Model with Absorption Low absorption occurs Absorption is the ratelimiting step Slow absorption may represent drug entry through GI tract or leakage into circulation after SC injection Drugs require multiple doses to maintain drug concentration within therapeutic window M/D 0 t
Two-Compartment Model Drug rapidly injected Drug distributed instantaneously throughout one compartment and slowly throughout second C/C compartment Describes drug concentration in plasma injected IV k 1, C 1, V 1 k 12 k 21 k 2, C 2, V 2 C/C 0 0 Compartment 1 Compartment 2 t Concentration after ingestion t Concentration with slow absorption
Physiological Models
Determination of the Efficacy of the Delivery Route Bioavailability (F) – Fraction of the drug that reached the systemic circulation – According to the FDA, Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act “The rate and extent to which an active ingredient or active moiety is absorbed from a drug product and becomes available at the site of action. For drugs that are not intended to be absorbed in the bloodstream, bioavailability may be assessed by measurements intended to reflect the rate and extent to which the active ingredient or active moiety becomes available at the site of action. ”
Factors Influencing Bioavailabilty Delivery route The site of measurement Type of animal employed Physiological state of the animal/human – Disease – Anesthesia
Implications of PK and PD in Drug Delivery The PK and PD of a drug may be affected when administered via different routes – Examples Proteins – oral vs. intramuscular Morphine – oral vs. intramuscular The PK and PD of a drug delineates its therapeutic window – Degree of absorption – Degree of elimination and/or metabolism Example – – Tetracycline (infection) – given 6 to 8 hours Digoxin (cardiac failure)– given daily
Where to Find PD and PK Information United States Pharmacopeia – www. usp. org – It is also paper published – Provides standards, chemical properties, and protocols to perform pharmacological experiments Federal Drug Administration – if it has already being approved – www. fda. org
