Maurya, Priyanka published the artcileAppraisal of Felodipine Nanocrystals for Solubility Enhancement and Pharmacodynamic Parameters on Cadmium Chloride Induced Hypertension in Rats., Name: 3-Ethyl 5-methyl 4-(2,3-dichlorophenyl)-2,6-dimethyl-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate, the main research area is Antisolvent precipitation; cadmium chloride; crystallinity; felodipine; heart rate variability; heat of fusion.

AIM: Felodipine (FDP), an antihypertensive drug possesses low water solubility and extensive first-pass metabolism leading to poor bioavailability. This impelled us to improve its solubility, bioavailability, and pharmacodynamic properties through the Nanocrystal (NC) approach. METHODS: FDP-NC were prepared with Poloxamer F125 (PXM) by the antisolvent precipitation method. The experimental setup aimed at fine-tuning polymer concentration, the proportion of antisolvent to solvent, and the duration of ultrasonication for NC formulation. RESULTS: Optimized formulation was characterized for particle size, solubility, and PDI. Particle reduction of 74.96 times was achieved with a 9X solubility enhancement as equated to pure FDP. The morphology of NC was found to be crystalline through scanning electron microscopy observation. The formation of the crystal lattice in FDP-NC was further substantiated by the XRD and DSC results. Lowering of the heat of fusion of FDP-NC is a clear indication of size reduction. The stability studies showed no substantial change in physical parameters of the FDP-NC as assessed by particle size, zeta potential, and drug content. CONCLUSION: The crystalline nature and improved solubility of FDP-NC improve the dissolution profile and pharmacodynamic data. The stability study data ensure that FDP-NC can be safely stored at 25°C. It is revealed that FDP-NC had a better release profile and improved pharmacodynamic effects as evident from better control over heart rate than FDP.

Chretien, Marc L published the artcileSeverity of coeliac disease and clinical management study when using a CYP3A4 metabolised medication: a phase I pharmacokinetic study., Related Products of pyridine-derivatives, the main research area is adverse events; clinical pharmacology; coeliac disease; gastroenterology.

OBJECTIVE: Severity of coeliac disease depends in part on the extent of small intestinal mucosa injury. Patients with the most abnormal pathology have loss of duodenal villi CYP3A4, a drug-metabolising enzyme that inactivates many drugs. These patients are hypothesised to have greater systemic concentrations of felodipine, a drug which normally has low oral bioavailability secondary to intestinal CYP3A4-mediated metabolism. It serves as a representative for a class containing many medications. DESIGN: A phase I, open-label, single-dose, pharmacokinetic study. SETTING: London, Ontario, Canada. PARTICIPANTS: Patients with coeliac disease (n=47) with positive serology and healthy individuals (n=68). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Patients with coeliac disease-upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and oral felodipine pharmacokinetics study within a 3-week period. Healthy individuals-oral felodipine pharmacokinetics study with water and grapefruit juice. RESULTS: Coeliac stratification categories: Group A (n=15, normal), B+C (n=16, intraepithelial lymphocytosis with/without mild villous blunting) and D (n=16, moderate/severe villous blunting). Groups A, B+C and D had linear trends of increasing felodipine AUC0-8; mean±SEM, 14.4±2.1, 17.6±2.8, 25.7±5.0; p<0.05) and Cmax (3.5±0.5, 4.0±0.6, 6.4±1.1; p<0.02), respectively. Healthy subjects receiving water had lower felodipine AUC0-8 (11.9±0.9 vs 26.9±0.9, p=0.0001) and Cmax (2.9±0.2 vs 7.7±0.2, p=0.0001) relative to those receiving grapefruit juice. CONCLUSIONS: Increased felodipine concentrations in patients with coeliac disease were most probably secondary to decreased small intestinal CYP3A4 expression. Patients with severe coeliac disease and healthy individuals with grapefruit juice had equivalently enhanced effect. Thus, patients with severe coeliac disease would probably experience similarly altered drug response, including overdose toxicity, from many important medications known to be metabolised by CYP3A4. Patients with coeliac disease with severe disease should be considered for other clinical drug management, particularly when there is the potential for serious drug toxicity.

Liu, Lei published the artcileWater-Resistant Drug-Polymer Interaction Contributes to the Formation of Nano-Species during the Dissolution of Felodipine Amorphous Solid Dispersions, Synthetic Route of 72509-76-3, the main research area is amorphous solid dispersion; drug−polymer interaction; intrinsic dissolution; nano-species; water resistant.

Drug-polymer interactions are of great importance in amorphous solid dispersion (ASD) formulation for both dissolution performance and phys. stability considerations. In this work, three felodipine ASD systems with drug loading ranging from 5 to 20% were prepared using PVP, PVP-VA, or HPMC-AS as the polymer matrix. The amorphization and homogeneity were confirmed by differential scanning calorimetry and powder X-ray diffraction. The intrinsic dissolution behavior of these ASDs was studied in 0.05 M HCl and phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) (pH 6.5). In 0.05 M HCl, PVP-VA ASDs with low drug loading (<15%) showed rapid dissolution accompanied with nano-species generation, while in the PVP system, rapid dissolution and nano-species generation were observed only when drug loading was less than 10%, and HPMC-AS ASDs always released slowly with no nano-species formation. In PBS, PVP-VA ASDs with drug loading less than 10% showed rapid dissolution accompanied with nano-species generation, while for PVP ASDs, rapid dissolution and nano-species generation were observed only when drug loading was 5%. However, 20% drug loading HPMC-AS ASDs exhibited rapid dissolution of felodipine and nano-species generation. When the drug loading was above the transition point of PVP-VA ASDs and PVP ASDs, the release rate was significantly lowered, and no nano-species was generated. To understand this phenomenon, drug-polymer interactions were studied using the m.p. depression method and the Flory-Huggins model fitting. The Flory-Huggins interaction parameters (χ) for felodipine/HPMC-AS, felodipine/PVP, and felodipine/PVP-VA were determined to be 0.62 ± 0.07, -0.55 ± 0.20, and -1.02 ± 0.21, resp., indicating the existence of the strongest attractive mol. interaction between felodipine and PVP-VA, followed by felodipine/PVP, but not in felodipine/HPMC-AS. Furthermore, dynamic vapor sorption further revealed that the mol. interactions between felodipine and PVP or PVP-VA were resistant to water. We concluded that water-resistant drug-polymer interactions in felodipine/polymer systems were responsible for the formation of nano-species, which further facilitated the rapid initial drug dissolution Molecular Pharmaceutics published new progress about amorphous solid dispersion; drug−polymer interaction; intrinsic dissolution; nano-species; water resistant. 72509-76-3 belongs to class pyridine-derivatives, name is 3-Ethyl 5-methyl 4-(2,3-dichlorophenyl)-2,6-dimethyl-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate, and the molecular formula is C18H19Cl2NO4, Synthetic Route of 72509-76-3.

Poozesh, Sadegh published the artcileMulticomponent Droplet Drying Modeling Based on Conservation and Population Balance Equations, COA of Formula: C18H19Cl2NO4, the main research area is amorphous solid dispersion; drying kinetics; mathematical modeling; multicomponent droplet; particle engineering.

Abstract: The aim of this work is to present a modeling tool to describe drying kinetics and delineate evolving phys. and chem. behavior of multicomponent droplets during drying. Conservation equations coupled with population balance equations (PBE) are used to achieve this goal. Modeling results are gauged with single salt-water droplet drying from literature and show congruent trends. This model is then extended to a more complex system: various droplet sizes containing methanol (solvent), Felodipine (active ingredient), and PVP (polyvinylpyrrolidone as excipient). The FIB-SEM (Focused-Ion Beam SEM) imaging results from spray-dried particles produced with similar formulation and processing conditions are consistent with phase behavior predicted by the model. The results show competing impacts of transport phenomena on the intermittent shell formation process and final particle structure and chem. heterogeneity. Solute diffusion, solvent efflux, and intra-drop flow impact the model system. It is found that shell formation follows a fluctuating profile where the initial precipitation of the dissolved species on the droplet surface is dampened, and nucleated particles become dispersed periodically until the shell becomes strong enough to withstand internal circulations. These internal effects are dependent on droplet size and are pronounced for larger droplets. That is, the particle phase behavior and phys. nature are functions of the atomized droplet size. Stemming understating from this study would inform an optimized unit, operating in target design space. This would provide better product quality control and minimize discrepancies observed in process development during the early phase vs. com. scale.

Tingle, Samuel J. published the artcileCalcium channel blockers in pancreatic cancer: increased overall survival in a retrospective cohort study, Application of 3-Ethyl 5-methyl 4-(2,3-dichlorophenyl)-2,6-dimethyl-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate, the main research area is pancreatic cancer hypertension Iercanidipine amlodipine calcium channel blocker.

This retrospective cohort study aimed to translate this into the clinic by investigating the effect of CCBs on survival in pancreatic cancer. One hundred sixty-four patients with unresectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma were included. Data were collected on CCB prescription, and for a range of other potentially important prognostic factors: ECOG performance status, AJCC cancer stage, chemotherapy regimen, radiotherapy, age, hypertension and sex. Participants prescribed CCB (n = 30) were more likely to be older (P = 0.004) and have hypertension (P < 0.0005); baseline demographics were otherwise similar between groups. On adjusted cox regression patients prescribed CCBs demonstrated significantly improved overall survival; hazard ratio -0.496 (0.297-0.827; P = 0.007). Performance status (P < 0.0005), tumor stage (P < 0.0005), chemotherapy regimen (P < 0.0005), radiotherapy (0.002) and age (P = 0.012) were also independent predictors of survival. The Kaplan-Meier estimated median survival was 15.3 mo for patients prescribed CCBs vs. 10.1 mo for patients not prescribed CCBs (P = 0.131). This study supports previous work suggesting CCBs may be beneficial in pancreatic cancer. Further work on larger datasets will allow for subgroup anal. delineating the effects of specific CCBs in combination with different forms of chemotherapy, paving the way for future prospective studies.

Tepech-Carrillo, Carlos published the artcileStudy of the reactivity of (100) felodipine surface model based on DFT concepts, Formula: C18H19Cl2NO4, the main research area is felodipine reactivity density functional theory surface model.

In this study, D. Functional Theory including a dispersion correction is employed to model and analyze the structural, electronic and local reactivity of the (100) surface of felodipine. The surface energy calculated at the Generalized Gradient Approximation (GGA) level, along with plane waves as basis set and ultrasoft pseudopotentials, shows that the (100) surface is the most stable as compared to the (010) and (110) ones. In particular, we have focused on performing a quant. study of the reactivity of the surface by means of the Fukui function and through the HOMO and LUMO populations. Our results can be related to some applications in the pharmaceutical chem. of this compound

Han, Xiuyuan published the artcileEffect Of epigallocatechin-3-gallate on the pharmacokinetics of amlodipine in rats, Product Details of C18H19Cl2NO4, the main research area is liver microsome amlodipine EGCG pharmacokinetics; Drug–drug interaction; EGCG; LC-MS/MS; amlodipine; pharmacokinetics.

This study investigates the effect of epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), a major ingredient of green tea, on the pharmacokinetics of amlodipine in rats. The pharmacokinetics of orally administered amlodipine (1 mg/kg) with or without EGCG pretreatment (30 mg/kg/day for 10 days) were investigated. Plasma concentrations of amlodipine were determined by using a sensitive and reliable liquid chromatog. with tandem mass spectroscopy (LC-MS/MS) method. The effects of EGCG on the metabolic stability of amlodipine were investigated by using rat liver microsome incubation systems. The results indicated that when the rats were pretreated with EGCG, the Cmax of amlodipine increased from 16.32 ± 2.57 to 21.44 ± 3.56 ng/mL (p < 0.05), the Tmax decreased from 5.98 ± 1.25 to 4.01 ± 1.02 h (p < 0.05), and the AUC0-t increased from 258.12 ± 76.25 to 383.34 ± 86.95 mug h L-1 (p < 0.05), which suggested that the pharmacokinetic behavior of amlodipine was affected after oral co-administration of EGCG. Addnl., the metabolic half-life was prolonged from 31.3 ± 5.6 to 52.6 ± 7.9 min (p < 0.05) with the pretreatment of EGCG. It can be speculated that the drug-drug interaction between EGCG and amlodipine might occur, which might have resulted from the metabolism inhibition of amlodipine by EGCG when they were co-administered.

Jamei, Masoud published the artcileCurrent status and future opportunities for incorporation of dissolution data in PBPK modeling for pharmaceutical development and regulatory applications: OrBiTo consortium commentary, Application of 3-Ethyl 5-methyl 4-(2,3-dichlorophenyl)-2,6-dimethyl-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate, the main research area is pharmaceutical pharmacokinetics felodipine ibuprofen; Biorelevant dissolution; Dissolution; Oral drug absorption; PBBM (Physiologically Based Biopharmaceutical Model); PBPK.

In vitro dissolution experiments are used to qual. assess the impact of formulation composition and process changes on the drug dosage form performance. However, the use of dissolution data to quant. predict changes in the absorption profile remains limited. Physiol.-based Pharmacokinetic(s) (PBPK) models facilitate incorporation of in vitro dissolution experiments into mechanistic oral absorption models to predict in vivo oral formulation performance, and verify if the drug product dissolution method is biopredictive or clin. relevant. Nevertheless, a standardized approach for using dissolution data within PBPK models does not yet exist and the introduction of dissolution data in PBPK relies on a case by case approach which accommodates from differences in release mechanism and limitations to drug absorption. As part of the Innovative Medicines Initiative (IMI) Oral Biopharmaceutics Tools (OrBiTo) project a cross-work package was set up to gather a realistic understanding of various approaches used and their areas of applications. This paper presents the approaches shared by academic and industrial scientists through the OrBiTo project to integrate dissolution data within PBPK software to improve the prediction accuracy of oral formulations in vivo. Some general recommendations regarding current use and future improvements are also provided.

Locatelli, Marcello published the artcileFabric-Phase Sorptive Membrane Array As a Noninvasive In Vivo Sampling Device For Human Exposure To Different Compounds, Category: pyridine-derivatives, the main research area is fabric sorption membrane array human exposure sampling device.

This study introduces an innovative device for the noninvasive sampling and chromatog. anal. of different compounds present in exhaled breath aerosol (EBA). The new sampling device, especially in light of the recent COVID-19 pandemic that forced many countries to impose mandatory facemasks, allows an easy monitoring of the subject′s exposure to different compounds they may come in contact with, actively or passively. The project combines the advantages of a fabric-phase sorptive membrane (FPSM) as an in vivo sampling device with a validated LC-MS/MS screening procedure able to monitor more than 739 chems. with an overall anal. time of 18 min. The project involves the noninvasive in vivo sampling of the EBA using an FPSM array inserted inside an FFP2 mask. The study involved 15 healthy volunteers, and no restrictions were imposed during or prior to the sampling process regarding the consumption of drinks, food, or drugs. The FPSM array-LC-MS/MS approach allowed us to effectively exploit the advantages of the two complementary procedures (the convenient sampling by an FPSM array and the rapid anal. by LC-MS/MS), obtaining a powerful and green tool to carry out rapid screening analyses for human exposure to different compounds The flexible fabric substrate, the sponge-like porous architecture of the high-efficiency sol-gel sorbent coating, the availability of a large cache of sorbent coatings, including polar, nonpolar, mixed mode, and zwitterionic phases, the easy installation into the facemask, and the possibility of sampling without interrupting regular activities provide FPSMs unparalleled advantages over other sampling techniques, and their applications are expected to expand to many other clin. or toxicol. studies.

Moreau, Magali published the artcileA baseline assessment of emerging organic contaminants in New Zealand groundwater, Product Details of C18H19Cl2NO4, the main research area is emerging organic contaminant baseline assessment groundwater pollution New Zealand; Emerging organic contaminant; Groundwater; Groundwater quality; Monitoring; New Zealand; Waikato region.

Emerging organic contaminants (EOC) are manufactured compounds, used for a variety of purposes, are a rising concern for freshwater quality and human and aquatic health. Their occurrence in groundwater was demonstrated in several international surveys. This work conducted the first baseline survey on EOC occurrence in New Zealand groundwater, using a wide-screening approach (723 compounds) and a novel stratified to mean residence time (MRT) randomized design to inform future monitoring. A total of 61 sites were sampled: 51 baseline sites from State of the Environment network in the Waikato region, and 10 targeted sites near known EOC sources for comparison. EOC were detected at 91% of baseline sites at concentrations of 0.1-11,000 ng/L. Multiple EOC groups were encountered: pesticides (48 compounds), pharmaceuticals (11), industrial (10), preservatives/food additives (3), and personal care products (1). Similar EOC diversity and concentration range were observed at targeted sites, with the addition of drugs of abuse and life-style compounds EOC detections occurred across young (1-11 yr. MRT), intermediate (11-50 yr. MRT), and old (50-250 yr. MRT) groundwater with higher concentrations and more types of EOC detected at sites with the youngest groundwater. Concentrations of 73 compounds detected at baseline sites were comparable to those observed in overseas groundwater, with 28 compounds measured at concentrations greater than the European Union maximum admissible concentration for pesticides. Survey results were used to: review current pesticide monitoring; propose complementary monitoring; identify potential EOC groundwater tracers; and identify compounds for which cost-effective, national laboratory capability is needed. Waikato survey results demonstrated ubiquitous occurrence of un-monitored, unregulated EOC in groundwater and limitations for using targeted approaches to establish monitoring.
