Popis: | Nepafenac is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), currently only available as 0.1% ophthalmic suspension (Nevanac®). This study utilized hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPBCD) to increase the water solubility and trans-corneal permeation of nepafenac. The nepafenac-HPBCD complexation in the liquid and solid states were confirmed by phase solubility, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) analyses. Nepafenac 0.1% ophthalmic solution was formulated using HPBCD (same pH and osmolality as that of Nevanac®) and pig eye trans-corneal permeation was studied versus Nevanac®. Furthermore, nepafenac content in cornea, sclera, iris, lens, aqueous humor, choroid, ciliary body, retina, and vitreous humor was studied in a continuous isolated pig eye perfusion model in comparison to the suspension and Nevanac®. Permeation studies using porcine corneas revealed that the solution formulation had a permeation rate 18 times higher than Nevanac®. Furthermore, the solution had 11 times higher corneal retention than Nevanac®. Drug distribution studies using porcine eyes revealed that the solution formulation enables detectable levels in various ocular tissues while the drug was undetectable by Nevanac®. The ocular solution formulation had a significantly higher drug concentration in the cornea compared to the suspension or Nevanac®. |
