Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Agents, Part 20[1] Method for Testing Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatories: The Modified Hen's Egg Chorioallantoic Membr…
1996
The delay of onset of irritation phenomena at the chorioallantoic membrane of incubated hen's eggs, a parameter for anti-inflammatory activity, was determined for the pharmaceutical substances diclofenac, flufenamic acid, ibuprofen, indomethacin, ketoprofen, piroxicam, phenylbutazone, salicylic acid, and sodium salicylate. Alongside questions relating to the dose-effect ratio, metabolisation, recovery, and diffusion of the substances to their site of action were investigated. The reproducibility of the procedure and its selectivity with regard to substances with a different mechanism of action is proven. The method allows classification of the substances according to their anti-inflammatory…
Hydrophilic and Hydrophobic Polymeric Derivatives of Anti-Inflammatory Agents Such as Alclofenac, Ketoprofen, and Ibuprofen
1991
Macromolecular prodrugs of a hydrophilic polymer [α,β-poly( N- hydroxyethyl)-DL-aspartamide (PHEA)] was used as a drug carrier. Three poly- (HEA)-NSAID adducts were studied: poly(HEA)-Alclofenac, poly(HEA)-Keto profen, and poly(HEA)-Ibuprofen. Prodrugs with different drug content were synthesized both as water-soluble and water-insoluble agents. Hydrolysis of water-soluble adducts in a simulated gastric juice was studied.
Colonic drug delivery: influence of cross-linking agent on pectin beads properties and role of the shell capsule type.
2006
For colonic delivery, pectin beads obtained by ionotropic gelation method have been already reported as an interesting approach. This study investigated the influence of the cross-linking agent (calcium or zinc) and the type of shell capsule used (classical or enteric capsules) on pectin beads properties and on their performance to target the colon (in vitro dissolution studies with subsequent pH change to mimic overall gastro-intestinal tract). Zinc pectinate beads seemed to be relatively similar to calcium's ones in morphological point, except on the surface aspect. When beads were introduced in classical hard capsules, ketoprofen release was not significantly different between CPG and ZP…
Colon-specific drug delivery: Influence of solution reticulation properties upon pectin beads performance.
2006
In this study, pectinate gel beads were produced by ionotropic gelation method with different solutions of cross-linking agents and ketoprofen was entrapped as model drug. The influence of these formulation parameters was investigated upon bead properties and upon their performance to target the colon. Zinc pectinate beads obtained with 10% of counter-ions solution at pH 1.6 exhibited the strongest gel network due to "egg-box" dimmer formation helped by hydrogen bonding. Furthermore the gel network formed at low pH was arranged in a compact three-fold conformation. Thus, this matrix structure in enteric capsules induced the lowest drug release in the upper gastro-intestinal tract (pH 1.2 fo…
THU0349 A Double-Blind, Randomised, Parallel Group, Active Controlled, Multicentre Study to Assess the Therapeutic Non-Inferiority of Skp-021, A 0.3%…
2014
Background NSAIDs are the first choice for management of acute musculoskeletal pain. Acute musculoskeletal pain is often associated with trauma, surgery, musculoskeletal injuries like strains, sprains and over-use injuries Objectives The primary study endpoint was the estimate of the non-inferiority of the Test drug (Ketoprofen) vs. the Reference drug (Diclofenac). This was performed by assessment of the proportion of responders (response: 50% or more reduction of baseline VAS % (95%CI) at the end of treatment) in the two treatment groups. Methods This phase III, randomised, blinded, active-control and non-inferiority study involved 697 adults with acute muskuloskeletal pain. Participants w…
Near-Infrared, Light-Triggered, On-Demand Antiinflammatories and Antibiotics Release by Graphene Oxide/Elecrospun PCL Patch for Wound Healing
2019
Very recently, significant attention has been focused on the adsorption and cell adhesion properties of graphene oxide (GO), because it is expected to allow high drug loading and controlled drug release, as well as the promotion of cell adhesion and proliferation. This is particularly interesting in the promotion of wound healing, where antibiotics and anti-inflammatories should be locally released for a prolonged time to allow fibroblast proliferation. Here, we designed an implantable patch consisting of poly(caprolactone) electrospun covered with GO, henceforth named GO&ndash
Dexketoprofen/tramadol: randomised double-blind trial and confirmation of empirical theory of combination analgesics in acute pain
2015
Background Combination analgesics are effective in acute pain, and a theoretical framework predicts efficacy for combinations. The combination of dexketoprofen and tramadol is untested, but predicted to be highly effective. Methods This was a randomised, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel-group, placebo-controlled, single-dose trial in patients with moderate or severe pain following third molar extraction. There were ten treatment arms, including dexketoprofen trometamol (12.5 mg and 25 mg) and tramadol hydrochloride (37.5 mg and 75 mg), given as four different fixed combinations and single components, with ibuprofen 400 mg as active control as well as a placebo control. The study objecti…
Comparison of segmental-dependent permeability in human and in situ perfusion model in rat.
2017
Abstract Nowadays, alternative methods have been developed to predict intestinal permeability values in human as in vitro, in situ or ex vivo methods. They were developed by the necessity to avoid the problems of the human permeability experiments. However, determination of human permeability is needed to properly validate the alternative methods. For this reason, recently, Dahlgren et al. published an indirect method based on a deconvolution technique to estimate the human permeability in different gastrointestinal segments (jejunum, ileum and colon). Therefore, the objective of this research was to demonstrate that Doluisio technique is a useful method to predict the human permeability in…
Evaluation of the interaction and drug release from alpha,beta-polyaspartamide derivatives to a biomembrane model
2005
This article reports on a comparative study on the ability of various polymers, containing hydrophilic and/or hydrophobic groups, to interact with a biomembrane model using the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) technique. Multilamellar vesicles of mixed dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC) and dimyristoylphosphatidic acid (DMPA) were chosen as a model of cell membranes. The investigated samples were a water soluble polymer, the alpha,beta-poly(N-2-hydroxyethyl)-DL-aspartamide (PHEA) and its derivatives partially functionalized with polyethylene glycol (PEG2000) to obtain PHEA-PEG2000, with hexadecylamine (C16) to obtain PHEA-C16, and with both compounds to obtain PHEA-PEG2000-C16. Th…
