Improved Drug Loading and Sustained Release of Entecavir‐loaded PLGA Microsphere Prepared by Spray Drying Technique

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to construct a poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) microparticle (PLGA MP) of entecavir (ETV), an anti-viral agent for hepatitis B, for parenteral sustained delivery. To improve entrapment efficiency of the hydrophilic small compound in MPs, different fabrication methods such as double emulsion solvent evaporation and spray-drying method were investigated. The prepared MPs were highly spherical, and the surface was smooth, irrespective of fabrication methods. On the other hand, the drug… Show more

“…Recently, Kim et al ( 2019a , b ) described a formulation composed by bupivacaine-loaded PLGA MPs (BPC-PLGA-MPs) and fibrin glue (FG), to reduce and control postoperative pain. Currently, the patients affected by post-surgical pain are treated with long-term oral and/or patch treatments, which often cause systemic toxicity.…”

“…Interestingly, only the animals treated with FG_BPC-PLGA-MPs but not with control formulations, showed an intense increase in paw withdrawal threshold (PWT) during the entire testing period (10 days) due to longer drug release. Considering that the actual approved formulation of bupivacaine is active for only 72 h, this approach could eliminate multiple daily injections of bupivacaine improving patient compliance (Kim et al 2019a , b ).…”

“…PLGA is an ideal carrier because of its stability, low toxicity, controllable biodegradation and good biocompatibility. 20 Therefore, the double emulsion solvent evaporation method 21 was used to prepare TB@PLGA NPs ( Figure S1 ) to prevent the aggregation of TB. Different volume ratios of the TB and PLGA solutions were investigated to optimize the preparation conditions.…”

“…Therefore, polylactic acid‐glycolic acid (PLGA) has widespread applications as a drug carrier in tissue engineering 36 . The PLGA microsphere size and release profile can be flexibly regulated by the lactide/glycolide ratio and the polymer molecular weight 37,38 . Our previous study involved much effort to enrich BMP‐2 plasmid with polyethylenimine (PEI) and encapsulate it with PLGA microspheres to achieve the sustained release of pBMP‐2/PEI nanoparticles and it was finally confirmed to have a good osteogenesis potential through in vitro and in vivo experiments 39…”
