Oral delivery of therapeutic peptides and proteins: Technology landscape of lipid-based nanocarriers
The oral administration of therapeutic peptides and proteins is favoured from a patient and commercial point of view. In order to reach the systemic circulation after oral administration, these drugs have to overcome numerous barriers including the enzymatic, sulfhydryl, mucus and epithelial…

Excipient Innovation Through Precompetitive Research
The mRNA COVID-19 vaccines developed by Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna represent a triumph of vaccine development. The core mRNA component of these vaccines is now almost a household name. Unbeknownst to most people, however, is that each of the two mRNA COVID vaccines contains two novel excipients; a…

Lipid-based nanocarriers for oral delivery of peptides
Therapeutic peptides can treat a wide variety of diseases with selective and potent action. Their oral bioavailability is strongly limited by an important proteolytic activity in the intestinal lumen and poor permeation across the intestinal border. We have evaluated the capacity of solid lipid…

Formulation, optimization and evaluation of vitamin E TPGS emulsified dorzolamide solid lipid…
Herein, we designed this research to develop dorzolamide (DRZ) encapsulated solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) for ocular administration. The DRZ-SLNs were fabricated by ultrasonic emulsification method and optimized statistically by Box-Behnken design (3 factors at three levels BBD). Glyceryl…

Orodispersible Films: A Delivery Platform for Solid Lipid Nanoparticles?
To overcome the poor bioavailability observed for many newly developed active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), an appropriate formulation strategy is necessary. One approach is the formulation of these substances in solid lipid nanoparticles and their further processing into solid dosage forms. A…
