An In Vitro Model to Investigate the Potential of Solid Dispersions to Form Pharmacobezoars
2022
Overview
The formation of pharmacobezoars from suspensions of spray-dried amorphous solid dispersions (SD-ASDs) of new chemical entities (NCEs) and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate (HPMC-AS) represents a non-compound related adverse effect in preclinical oral toxicity studies in rodents. Whereas the contribution of the insolubility of the carrier polymer to this process taking place in the acidic environment of the rodent stomach is conclusive, unawareness of the extent of in vivo pharmacobezoar formation is adverse. In order to evaluate the risk of pharmacobezoar formation before in vivo administration, we subsequently introduce an in vitro model to assess the agglomeration potential of solid dispersions. To verify that the pharmacobezoar formation potential can be assessed based on the observed agglomeration potential, we conducted a sequence of experiments with two HPMC-AS-based SD-ASD formulations. In vitro, we found their different in vivo pharmacobezoar formation potential reflected by a significantly increased agglomerated mass of formulation 1 per day compared to formulation 2. In order to find an approach to reduce the agglomeration potential of solid dispersion from suspensions, we further applied the model to investigate the impact of the viscosity of the vehicle used to prepare suspensions on agglomerate formation.
