Permeation enhancer strategies in transdermal drug delivery

Abstract

Today, ～74% of drugs are taken orally and are not found to be as effective as desired. To improve such characteristics, transdermal drug delivery was brought to existence. This delivery system is capable of transporting the drug or macromolecules painlessly through skin into the blood circulation at fixed rate. Topical administration of therapeutic agents offers many advantages over conventional oral and invasive techniques of drug delivery. Several important advantages of transdermal drug delivery are prevention from hepatic first pass metabolism, enhancement of therapeutic efficiency and maintenance of steady plasma level of the drug. Human skin surface, as a site of drug application for both local and systemic effects, is the most eligible candidate available. New controlled transdermal drug delivery systems (TDDS) technologies (electrically-based, structure-based and velocity-based) have been developed and commercialized for the transdermal delivery of troublesome drugs. This review article covers most of the new active transport technologies involved in enhancing the transdermal permeation via effective drug delivery system.     

Challenges and opportunities in dermal/transdermal delivery

Transdermal drug delivery is an exciting and challenging area. There are numerous transdermal delivery systems currently available on the market. However, the transdermal market still remains limited to a narrow range of drugs. Further advances in transdermal delivery depend on the ability to overcome the challenges faced regarding the permeation and skin irritation of the drug molecules. Emergence of novel techniques for skin permeation enhancement and development of methods to lessen skin irritation would widen the transdermal market for hydrophilic compounds, macromolecules and conventional drugs for new therapeutic indications. As evident from the ongoing clinical trials of a wide variety of drugs for various clinical conditions, there is a great future for transdermal delivery of drugs.     

A commentary on transdermal drug delivery systems in clinical trials

The number of drugs available as marketed transdermal products is limited to those that exhibit the correct physicochemical and pharmacokinetic properties that enable their effective delivery across the skin. In this respect, there are less than 20 drugs that are currently marketed in the US and EU as products that deliver systemic levels of their active ingredients. An analysis of clinical trials conducted in the transdermal sector shows a similar picture with only nine drugs accounting for approximately 80% of all transdermal clinical trials listed on ClinicalTrials.gov. Those drugs for which there are very few transdermal trials listed consist mostly of molecules that are inherently unsuitable for transdermal delivery and serve as a clear warning to drug developers that the science that governs transdermal drug delivery is well reflected by the successes and failures of drugs in development as well as those that make it to the market. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. and the American Pharmacists Association J Pharm Sci 102:3082–3088, 2013     

微针与新型经皮给药载体结合的研究进展

经皮给药系统具有给药方便、血药浓度稳定、无首过效应等优点,但皮肤的屏障作用使得药物难以透过皮肤。近年来,出现了很多新型经皮给药的药物载体,如脂质体、醇质体、囊泡等,这些能通过化学方法促进药物的经皮渗透。而微针能穿透皮肤角质层形成微孔通道,通过物理方法促进药物的渗透,将微针与新型经皮给药载体结合能显著提高药物的经皮吸收的速率。本文对微针与新型经皮给药载体结合的最新研究进行了综述,并展望了微针辅助新型药物载体经皮给药的发展前景。     

Passive transdermal drug delivery systems

The skin has evolved as a formidable barrier against invasion by external microorganisms and against the prevention of water loss. Notwithstanding this, transdermal drug delivery systems have been designed with the aim of providing continuous controlled delivery of drugs via this barrier to the systemic circulation. There are numerous systems now available that effectively deliver drugs across the skin. These include reservoir devices, matrix diffusion-controlled devices, multiple polymer devices, and multilayer matrix systems. This review article focuses on the design characteristics and composition of the main categories of passive transdermal delivery device available. Mechanisms controlling release of the active drug from these systems as well as patch size and irritation problems will be considered. Recent developments in the field are highlighted including advances in patch design as well as the increasing number of drug molecules now amenable to delivery via this route. From the early complex patch designs, devices have now evolved towards simpler, matrix formulations. One of the newer technologies to emerge is the delivery-optimized thermodynamic (DOT) patch system, which allows greater drug loading to be achieved in a much smaller patch size. With the DOT technology, drug is loaded in an acrylic-based adhesive. The drug/acrylic blend is dispersed through silicone adhesive, creating a semi-solid suspension. This overcomes the problem with conventional drug-in-adhesive matrix patches, in which a large drug load in the adhesive reservoir can compromise the adhesive properties or necessitate a large patch size. Transdermal drug delivery remains an attractive and evolving field offering many benefits over alternative routes of drug delivery. Future developments in the field should address problems relating to irritancy and sensitization, which currently exclude a number of therapeutic entities from delivery via this route. It is likely that further innovations in matrix composition and formulation will further expand the number of candidate drugs available for transdermal delivery.

表面活性剂-醇质体增强多烯紫杉醇经皮给药的渗透性研究(英文)

皮肤的屏障作用使大部分药物无法实现透皮给药。本文以改善难溶性大分子模型药物多烯紫杉醇(docetaxel,DTX)的经皮渗透性为主体思路,研制了DTX的表面活性剂-醇质体(surfactant-ethanlic liposomes,SEL)。SEL由磷脂、乙醇、胆酸钠、DTX和磷酸盐缓冲液组成,采用薄膜分散法制备。对SEL的囊泡形态(冷冻蚀刻电镜法)、粒径大小及分布进行了表征,并测定包封率和载药量。采用体外扩散池实验研究了DTX表面活性剂-醇质体的经皮渗透性。结果表明,当磷脂与表面活性剂的比例为85:15时,DTX的稳态透皮速率和累计透皮量均为最高,且优于表面活性剂脂质体、醇质体和普通脂质体。最优处方的粒径分布、形态和载药量均较为稳定。本研究表明,通过将DTX包载于SEL中可显著改善DTX的经皮渗透性。
