1% SDS. No significant irritation was observed on rat skin with once-a-day topical application of the niosomal formulations for 7 consecutive days. Thus, SDS is a promising stabilizer for nanomedicines, including niosomes, for transdermal administration. In this study, gastro-retentive porous floating tablets of captopril based on zein are reported using l-menthol as a porogen. Tablets were prepared by the direct compression method. Removing of l-menthol through sublimation process generated pores in tablets, which decreased the density to promote floating over gastric fluid. Tamoxifen Angiogenesis chemical Prepared tablets showed no floating lag time and prolong total floating time (>24 h). Drug release was found dependent upon porosity of tablets, an increase in porosity of tablets resulted in increased drug release, so it can be tuned by varying concentration of l-menthol. In addition to floating and sustained release properties, porous tablets showed robust mechanical behavior in wet conditions, which can enable them to withstand real gastric environment stress. In vivo studies using New Zealand rabbits also confirmed the prolonged gastric retention (24 h) and plasma drug concentration-time profile showed sustained release of captopril with higher Tmax and MRT as compared to marketed immediate-release tablets. Overall, it was concluded that effective gastric retention can be achieved using porous zein tablets using l-menthol as a porogen. V.Complexation with cyclodextrins (CDs) has been widely and successfully used in pharmaceutical field, mainly for enhancing solubility, stability and bioavailability of a variety of drugs. However, some important drawbacks, including rapid removal from the bloodstream after in vivo administration, or possible replacement, in biological media, of the entrapped drug moieties by other molecules with higher affinity for the CD cavity, can limit the CDs effectiveness as drug carriers. This review is focused on combined strategies simultaneously exploiting CD complexation, and loading of the complexed drug into various colloidal carriers (liposomes, niosomes, polymeric nanoparticles, lipid nanoparticles, nanoemulsions, micelles) which have been investigated as a possible means for circumventing the problems associated with both such carriers, when used separately, and join their relative benefits in a unique delivery system. Several examples of applications have been reported, to illustrate the possible advantages achievable by such a dual strategy, depending on the CD-nanocarrier combination, and mainly resulting in enhanced performance of the delivery system and improved biopharmaceutical properties and therapeutic efficacy of drugs. The major problems and/or drawbacks found in the development of such systems, as well as the (rare) case of failures in achieving the expected improvements have also been highlighted. Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is one type of hematopoietic stem cell diseases. Although BCR-ABL1 tyrosine kinase inhibitors are remarkably effective in inducing remission in chronic phase patients, they are not curative in a majority of patients due to their failure to eradicate residual CML stem/progenitor cells, which reside in bone marrow niches. Here, we presented novel dual oligopeptides-conjugated nanoparticles and demonstrated their effective delivery of arsenic trioxide in bone marrow niches for the elimination of primitive CML cells. We encapsulated As-Ni transitional metal compounds into polymeric nanoparticles based on the reverse micelle rationale. The loading density and stability of arsenic trioxide in nanoparticles were improved. In vitro experiments demonstrated that dual oligopeptides conjugated nanoparticles could deliver arsenic trioxide into bone marrow niches including endosteal niches and vascular niches. The colony-forming activity of CML cells was remarkably restrained in the presence of metaphyseal bone fragments pre-incubated with bone marrow niche targeted arsenic nanoparticles. The in vitro vascular niche model suggested that CML cell proliferation was also successfully inhibited through a tight contact with HUVECs, which were pre-treated using niche-targeted arsenic nanoparticles. This bone marrow niche targeted delivery strategy has a potential usage for the treatment of CML and other malignant hematologic disorders originated from the bone marrow. BACKGROUND Oxaliplatin causes a wider variety of immediate hypersensitivity reactions than do other platin-based chemotherapeutics. Some resemble type 1 reactions that respond to desensitization. Others are atypical, possibly mast cell-independent cytokine release reactions refractory to desensitization. Given this variability, clinicians need an evidence-based strategy to personalize therapy for oxaliplatin-hypersensitive patients. OBJECTIVE To develop a data-driven algorithm to optimize treatment of oxaliplatin-hypersensitive patients. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the baseline clinical characteristics, biomarkers, and reactions of 48 oxaliplatin-hypersensitive patients who received a total of 266 oxaliplatin desensitizations. RESULTS We characterized 4 endophenotypes type 1, cytokine release, mixed, and either. A mean 40-fold increase in serum concentration of IL-6 helped define the cytokine release endophenotype. Younger patients were more likely to have a cytokine release endophenotype, whereas older patients were more likely to have a type 1 reaction. Skin testing was not informative for determining endophenotype or risk of reaction during desensitization, and did not associate with initial or desensitization grade of reaction. Patients with a history of atopy and an initial type 1 reaction responded to desensitization with antihistamine premedications, whereas nonatopic patients with the same initial reaction phenotype were more likely to convert to a cytokine release or mixed reaction during desensitization. We combined these reaction patterns with biomarker data and desensitization outcomes to construct an algorithm that helps tailor desensitization protocol design to meet individual patient needs. CONCLUSIONS Endophenotyping oxaliplatin hypersensitivity reactions may help forecast desensitization outcomes and personalize treatment plans.
