Oral Delivery of Insoluble Drugs: Motivation for New Approaches
Practically no marketed drugs with less than 10 g/ml solubility in 70s or 80s (0.01-0.1 mg/mL was considered low)*
Industry-wide increase in insoluble drug candidates** Solubilities of 0.1 g/mL not uncommon
500,000 mL water to dissolve 50 mg dose

This option inherently introduces physical stability risk as more stable state is known to exist
Solid Dispersion: Definition Common jargon
Solid solutions Amorphous formulations Physically stabilized High energy state
Todays presentation: focused on solid solutions of API, polymer(s), and/or compatabilizers

Applications and Performance In vitro Preclinical
Solid Solution Preparation Most processes to make solid solutions involve the formation of a
true solution followed by quenching Cooling Solvent removal
Other processes include mechanical activation, precipitation techniques, etc.
Ingredient feed
Extrusion(heat in) Cooling Milling
Solution Spray Drying (solvent out) DensificationCompaction/
Encapsulation
These routes can be used for clinical manufacture, other analagousprocesses can be used for screening (e.g. batch solvent casting)
Solid Solution Preparation Process should result in homogeneous glass
Notion that one process is universally superior suspect Processes can be interchangeable Impact of inhomogeneity likely dramatic
Sample history will lead to different relaxation states Quench rate, mechanical stress, conditioning May impact kinetics of physical stability
