Abstrakt: Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are widely used for treating acid-related disorders. For an "ideal PPI," achieving maximal absorption and sustaining pharmacodynamic effects through the 24-h dosing cycle are critical features. Dexlansoprazole offers a relevant case study on how an improved PPI was developed capitalizing on the rational optimization of a precursor molecule-in this case, using lansoprazole as a starting point, leveraging its chemical properties on pharmacokinetics, and exploring optimized formulations. Dexlansoprazole is the R(+)-enantiomer of lansoprazole and shows stereoselective differences in absorption and metabolism compared with the racemic mixture of lansoprazole. The formulation was further refined to use pulsate-type granules with enteric coating to withstand acidic gastric conditions, while allowing prolonged absorption in the proximal and distal small intestine. As a result, the dual delayed-release formulation of dexlansoprazole has a plasma concentration-time profile characterized by 2 distinct peaks, leading to an extended duration of therapeutic plasma drug concentrations compared with the conventional delayed-release lansoprazole formulation. The dual delayed-release formulation maintains plasma drug concentrations longer than the lansoprazole delayed-release formulation at all doses.
