Development of Biodegradable and Injectable Latices for Controlled Release of Potent Drugs

Gurny, R., Peppas, N. A., Harrington, D. D., Banker, G. S.·1981·Drug Development and Industrial Pharmacy

Abstract

A new dosage form designed to provide parenteral drug delivery over a prolonged period of time following a standard injection has been investigated using testosterone as the model drug. The drug carrier consists of a biodegradable, biocompatible polymer in which the drug is dispersed on a molecular level. The polymer itself is formulated as a pseudolatex with high solid content (40.0%). The formulation has a low viscosity (97 cps) which can be injected easily through a hypodermic needle. The histopathology study showed good tissue compatibility of the pseudolatices and in-vivo tests on rats confirmed a prolonged release of drug over a 14 day period. The stability of the biodegradable poly-d, l-lactic acid latex was found not to be significantly changed over 120 days of storage at room temperature (25°). A six month study showed a slight increase (10%) in the viscosity of the parenteral product when stored at room temperature. The increase was attributed to partial coalescence of the polymer particles which had an initial diameter of 0.45 μm.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
