Historical Perspective4

Historical Perspective5

OBJECTIVE

Diseases with circadian rhythms.

Patients with chronic disorders.

To lowers Drug toxicity.

Drugs with short half life.

Delivery of proteins & peptides.

Improve patient therapeutic efficacy & compliance.

pH Sensitive Polymers7

Smart / Intelligent/ Stimuli sensitive polymers Unique potential:-

modulation of drug release and targeting functionality.

Ex. N-isopropylacrylamide , CAP. Materials which will respond to the changes in the pH of the

surrounding medium by varying their dimensions

Such materials swell or collapse , goes soluble-insoluble phase

transition, accept or release depending on the pH of their

environment.

One which have acidic group (-COOH, -SO3H) and swell in

basic pH, Ex : Polyacrylic acid.

others which have basic groups (-NH2) and swell in acidic pH,

Ex: Chitosan .

controlled by the stimuli (pH).

3. pH sensitive hydrogel

Intermediate behavior between solid and liquid materials.

Hydrogels are three-dimensional networks of hydrophilic

polymer chains that do not dissolve but can swell in water.

Bio-compatible

versatile materials

Contain ionizable group Ex. pH sensitive ionization of

polyelectrolyte's.

Applications of Hydrogel.24

Controlled drug delivery:- Caffeine was loaded into Hydrogels made of copolymers of

methyl methacrylate & DMAEM released at zero-order at pH 3-5 .

Hydrogels made of polyanions (e.g., PAA) crosslinked with azoaromatic crosslinkers

Ofloxacin In situ gel with Carbopol ® 940 and Methocel E50LV (HPMC)

PVD hydrogel to release chlorpheniramine maleate.

RECENT APPROACHES

(1) TUMOR TARGETING :

Tumor Extracellular pH (pHe) Targeting

The acidic tumor pHe prompted researchers to design pH sensitive

targeting systems that targeted these tumors.

Two nanocarrier systems

1. Aggregation/shrinking (using weak acid) at tumor pHe

pH-sensitive polymers based on sulphonamide (SD) derivatives

capable of responding to pH changes as small as 0.2 pH units.

2.Triggered Release by Polymeric Micelle Destabilization

block copolymers of poly(l-histidine) (polyHis) and PEG, and

the construction of polymeric micelles responded to the

local pH changes

micelles were stable at a pH of 7.4, their critical pH for

destabilization was approximately 7.0; below the pH, DOX

release was greatly accelerated

reduction of dosing frequency may be achieved. Due to its specific coating structure.

Different ratios at Eudragit L-100 and Eudragit S-100 Release of 5-ASA is depending on the thickness of the layer

and the ratio of Eudragit copolymers . Caffeine is used as marker drug

pH-Sensitive Nanoparticles are matrix-type dispersed systems.

Application:-

natural polysaccharide pullulan for doxorubicin (DOX) release

33

(4) pH-SENSITIVE MICROSPHERES

pH-dependent delivery system of nitrendipine in which they

have mixed three kinds of pH dependent microspheres made

up of acrylic resins Eudragit E-100, HPMCP and HPMCAS as

pH sensitive polymers.

For delivery of theophylline in colon mixture of the polymers,

i.e., Eudragit L and Eudragit S.

Conclusion

Presently, oral delivery of drug is still by far the most preferable route of drug delivery .

sustained and controlled-release products provide a desired therapeutic effect, but fall short of diseases following biological rhythms.

Circadian disorders such as hypertension, osteoarthritis, asthma etc., which require chronopharmacotherapy. PSDDS can effectively tackle this problem as it is modulated according to body's circadian clock giving release of drug.

There are various technologies present in the market based on the various methodolgies. pH sensitive release systems should be promising in the future.
