Enhancing oral bioavailability of an antifungal thiazolylhydrazone derivative: Development and characterization of a self-emulsifying drug delivery system.
International Journal of Pharmaceutics 2024 March 16
RN104 (2-[2-(cyclohexylmethylene)hydrazinyl)]-4-phenylthiazole) is a thiazolylhydrazone derivative with prominent antifungal activity. This work aimed to develop a self-emulsifying drug delivery system (SEDDS) loaded with RN104 to improve its biopharmaceutical properties and enhance its oral bioavailability. Medium chain triglycerides, sorbitan monooleate, and polysorbate 80 were selected as components for the SEDDS formulation based on solubility determination and a pseudo-ternary phase diagram. The formulation was optimized using the central composite design in response surface methodology. The optimized condition consisted of medium chain triglycerides, sorbitan monooleate, and polysorbate 80 in a mass ratio of 65.5:23.0:11.5, achieving maximum drug loading (10 mg/mL) and minimum particle size (118.4 ± 0.7 nm). The developed RN104-SEDDS was fully characterized using dynamic light scattering, in vitro release studies, stability assessments, polarized light microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. In vivo pharmacokinetic studies in mice demonstrated that RN104-SEDDS significantly improved oral bioavailability compared to free RN104 (the relative bioavailability was 2133 %). These results clearly indicated the successful application of SEDDS to improve the pharmacokinetic profile and to enhance the oral bioavailability of RN104, substantiating its potential as a promising antifungal drug candidate.
