Abstract
The purpose of thisresearch was to develop ibrutinib (IBR)-loaded lipid-polymer hybrid nanoparticles (IBR-LPHNPs) to improve oral absorption by intestinal lymphatic uptake. IBR-LPHNPs were fabricated by nanoprecipitation method using poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid), lipoid S 100, and DSPE-MPEG 2000. The IBR-LPHNPs showed particle size of 85.27±3.82 nm, entrapment efficiency of 97.70±3.85%, and zeta potential of -24.9±3.08 mV respectively. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry study revealed compatibility between IBR and excipients. X-ray diffraction study showed the conversion of IBR into amorphous form. High-resolution transmission electron microscopic image displayed spherical-shaped, discrete layered polymeric core and lipid shell structure. The drug release from IBR-LPHNPs exhibited prolong release profile up to 48 h and was best fitted to Korsmeyer-Peppas model. Higher fluorescence intensity at the end of 2 h in the intestinal tissue confirmed the uptake of LPHNPs by Peyer's patches. The oral bioavailability of IBR was improved 22.52-fold with LPHNPs as compared to free IBR. The intestinal lymphatic uptake study in rats pretreated with cycloheximide confirmed the intestinal lymphatic uptake of IBR-LPHNPs. All the results conclusively showed that LPHNPs could be a promising approach to improve oral bioavailability of IBR.
