Predicting the in vivo release from a liposomal formulation by IVIVC and non-invasive positron emission tomography imaging
چکیده انگلیسی

This study aimed to predict the in vivo performance from the in vitro release of a low-molecular weight model compound, [18F]-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose ([18F]FDG), from liposomes and by means of positron emission tomography (PET). Liposomes composed of hydrogenated phosphatidylcholine (HPC) were prepared by a freeze-thaw method. Particle size distribution was measured by dynamic light scattering (DLS). In vitro release was examined with a dispersion method detecting the radioactivity of [18F]FDG. In vivo release of [18F]FDG, following i.p. injection of the liposomes in rats, was determined by using a Micro-PET scanner. Convolution was performed to predict the in vivo profiles from the in vitro data and to establish an in vitro-in vivo correlation (IVIVC). The in vivo predictions slightly underestimated the experimentally determined values. The magnitude of the prediction errors (13% and 19%) displayed a satisfactory IVIV relationship leaving yet room for further improvement. This study demonstrated for the first time the use of PET in attaining an IVIVC for a parenterally administered modified release dosage form. It is therefore possible to predict target tissue concentrations, e.g., in the brain, from in vitro release experiments. IVIVC using non-invasive PET imaging could thus be a valuable tool in drug formulation development, resulting in reduced animal testing.
