Evaluation of Spray BIO-Max DIM-P in Dogs for Oral Bioavailability and in Nu/nu Mice Bearing Orthotopic/Metastatic Lung Tumor Models for Anticancer Activity.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

In an effort to prepare an oral dosage form for poorly bioavailable anti-cancer agents, we have incorporated spray drying using a customized spray gun generating enteric coated Self-emulsifying drug delivery systems. The objective of this study was to design and evaluate pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamic characteristics of Spray BIO-Max DIM-P (SB DIM-P).

Methods

SB DIM-P was prepared and optimized based on physico-chemical characteristics using design of experiment (DOE-Vr 8.0) software. Pharmacokinetic parameters in dogs and rats were evaluated and analyzed using Winonlin. Anti-tumor activity was carried out in orthotopic and metastatic lung tumor models using size M capsules in mice.

Results

Based on the optimization using DOE analysis of SB DIM-P charact
