Formulations and Technologies in Growth Hormone Delivery

Abstract: Growth hormone (GH) treatment has many indications including the treatment of growth hormone deficiency (GHD), Prader-Willi syndrome, chronic renal insufficiency, Turner syndrome, AIDS-related wasting, idiopathic short stature in children, and accumulation of fat which related in adults with lipodystrophy. Conventional therapy was achieved using daily intramuscular (IM) and subcutaneous (SC) injections. However, patient's noncompliance was very high. To solve this; several studies have been attempted to prepar… Show more

“…Because of this, it is a treatment with very low adherence and, therefore, it needs improvement. Among the new strategies developed, the most promising are those that permit reaching long-lasting formulations with noninvasive administration routes [95,96]. With regard to the remaining growth factors, mostly cytokines and steroid hormones, it is typical to have compounds with very little aqueous solubility.…”

“…Already in 1974, the pharmaceutical company Sandoz GmbH, Germany, initiated a project to obtain long-acting synthetic analogues with a higher activity vs native somatostatin. Later, SSAs were created, which proved to be more resistant to enzymatic decomposition and possessed improved pharmacokinetic and therapeutic characteristics [14,15].…”

“…Usually, parenteral way of administration is used for peptide drug administration because of their enzymatic instability [6,7]. But cyphetrylin is insoluble in water, and it is metabolically stable in the gastric fluid because of reactive groups blocking.…”
