Title of thesis: Polymeric stabilizers maintaining the saturation solubility of itraconazole nanocrystals after dissolution process Author: Jana Kubačková Department: Pharmaceutical Technology Supervisor: PharmDr. Ondřej Holas, Ph.D. Specialized supervisor: Assoc. Prof. Leena Peltonen, Ph.D. The increase of bioavailability of poorly water soluble drugs is still an issue. One of the techniques improving aqueous drug substance solubility, and consequently enhancing bioavailability, is formation of nanoparticles. However, the bioavailability is determined by the concentration of the dissolved drug achieved at the time of absorption. This fact emphasizes the importance of the maintenance of the high solubility until the absorption area is reached. Sufficiently stabilised nanocrystalline drugs offer a solution to this problem. In this thesis, the solid nanoparticle formations of an antifungal agent itraconazole (ITZ) are presented. Wet milling was employed to create the nanosuspension stabilised by binary mixture of stabilisers or by a single stabiliser. An aggregation inhibitor Poloxamer 407 (F127) in the combination with a polymeric precipitation inhibitor hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) or polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) at different ratios, or a single precipitation inhibitor, were utilised. The...
