Abstract :

In the present work an attempt is being made to provide for stable drug delivery system with or having improved therapeutic index for Irinotecan in form of lyophilized liposomes. Liposomes were prepared using the thin-film hydration method and optimized for various formulation parameters. The developed liposomal formulations were evaluated for particle size, zeta potential, drug entrapment efficiency, in vitro drug release and stability. Irinotecan containing liposomes with an encapsulation efficiency of 92.67 % were prepared, and the in vitro release of Irinotecan from the liposomes. In conclusion, the formulation was optimized, the prepared liposomes had a high Irinotecan encapsulation rate and good reproducibility, and there in vitro release had a certain delayed-release effect. The optimized formulation exhibited nanoscale particle size (236 nm), high entrapment efficiency (>80%), and a sustained drug release profile over 8 hours. The liposomal encapsulation of Irinotecan showed potential for improved pharmacokinetics and site-specific targeting, thereby minimizing systemic toxicity. In conclusion, the liposomal delivery system developed in this study demonstrates a promising approach to enhance the therapeutic efficacy and safety of Irinotecan.
Keywords: Irinotecan, Cholesterol, phosphatidyl choline, FTIR studies, thin film hydration technique, In vitro drug release studies.
