Particle Homogenization with Mesoporous Silica

Dissolving tablet representing increased dissolution rates and enhanced solubility of the active ingredient.

Active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) can exist in multiple crystal forms, known as polymorphs, that are chemically identical but lead to deviations across batches affecting stability, tableting properties, flowability, solubility, and release kinetics, and may ultimately result in a change in processability and drug (product) performance. These changes must be identified and addressed as they can have a significant impact on the success of the program, project timelines, investment of resources and product safety and efficacy.

Mesoporous silica as a porous carrier formulation technology can be used to:

  • Stabilize unstable polymorphs via nanoconfinement of the amorphous form of the API in its unique pore structure
  • Optimize solid-state properties, delivering consistency in particle size, flowability, tablet hardness, and friability independent of the API

The strategy can be used across a broad range of APIs and can thus serve as a one-size-fits-all platform technology for consistent particle properties leading to more efficient formulation development processes and de-risking solid state variation during drug development.
