Abstract
The aim of the present study is to achieve differential material attributes (DMAs) of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) with different viscosity grades (K4M, K15M, and K100M) from different manufacturers (Anhui Shanhe and Dow Chemical). Two kinds of multivariate methods, principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA), were adopted. The physicochemical properties of HPMC were systematically investigated via various techniques (e.g., SEM, particle size detection, and SeDeM characterization). Data from 33 characterization variables were applied to the multivariate methods. The PCA and OPLS-DA results indicated the differences between the HPMC from two manufacturers by the common variables that include the tablet hardness (HD), tensile strength (TS), bulk density, interparticle porosity, Carr index, cohesion index, Hausner ratio, flowability, and the width of the particle size distribution (span). Interestingly, these variables showed a certain correlation with each other, supporting the characterization results. Except for these different variables of the HPMC obtained by multivariate analysis results, distinguishable shapes and surface morphologies also appeared between different sources. To sum up, the powder properties (particle size, surface topography, dimension, flowability, and compressibility) and the tablet properties (HD and TS) were recognized as the DMAs of HPMC samples. This work provided the multivariate methods for the physicochemical characterization of HPMC, with potential in the quality control and formulation development.

Abstract
In the pharmaceutical industry, poorly water-soluble drugs require enabling technologies to increase apparent solubility in the biological environment. Amorphous solid dispersion (ASD) has emerged as an attractive strategy that has been used to market more than 20 oral pharmaceutical products. The amorphous form is inherently unstable and exhibits phase separation and crystallization during shelf life storage. Polymers stabilize the amorphous drug by antiplasticization, reducing molecular mobility, reducing chemical potential of drug, and increasing glass transition temperature in ASD. Here, drug-polymer miscibility is an important contributor to the physical stability of ASDs. The current Review discusses the basics of drug-polymer interactions with the major focus on the methods for the evaluation of solubility and miscibility of the drug in the polymer. Methods for the evaluation of drug-polymer solubility and miscibility have been classified as thermal, spectroscopic, microscopic, solid-liquid equilibrium-based, rheological, and computational methods. Thermal methods have been commonly used to determine the solubility of the drug in the polymer, while other methods provide qualitative information about drug-polymer miscibility. Despite advancements, the majority of these methods are still inadequate to provide the value of drug-polymer miscibility at room temperature. There is still a need for methods that can accurately determine drug-polymer miscibility at pharmaceutically relevant temperatures.

Unravelling the Miscibility of Poly(2-oxazoline)s: A Novel Polymer Class for the Formulation of Amorphous Solid Dispersions. Molecules 2020; 25:molecules25163587.

Abstract
Water-soluble polymers are still the most popular carrier for the preparation of amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs). The advantage of this type of carrier is the fast drug release upon dissolution of the water-soluble polymer and thus the initial high degree of supersaturation of the poorly soluble drug. Nevertheless, the risk for precipitation due to fast drug release is a phenomenon that is frequently observed. In this work, we present an alternative carrier system for ASDs where a water-soluble and water-insoluble carrier are combined to delay the drug release and thus prevent this onset of precipitation. Poly(2-alkyl-2-oxazoline)s were selected as a polymer platform since the solution properties of this polymer class depend on the length of the alkyl sidechain. Poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline) (PEtOx) behaves as a water-soluble polymer at body temperature, while poly(2-n-propyl-2-oxazoline) (PPrOx) and poly(2-sec-butyl-2-oxazoline) (PsecBuOx) are insoluble at body temperature. Since little was known about the polymer’s miscibility behaviour and especially on how the presence of a poorly-water soluble drug impacted their miscibility, a preformulation study was performed. Formulations were investigated with X-ray powder diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. PEtOx/PPrOx appeared to form an immiscible blend based on DSC and this was even more pronounced after heating. The six drugs that were tested in this work did not show any preference for one of the two phases. PEtOx/PsecBuOx on the other hand appeared to be miscible forming a homogeneous blend between the two polymers and the drugs.

Abstract
An increased interest in using amorphous solid forms in pharmaceutical applications to increase solubility, dissolution, and bioavailability has generated a need for better characterization of key properties, such as the glass transition (Tg) temperature. Although many laboratories measure and report this value, the details around these measurements are often vague or misunderstood. In this article, we attempt to highlight and compare various aspects of the two most common methods used to measure pharmaceutical Tg values, conventional and modulated differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Issues that directly impact the Tg, such as instrumental parameters, sample preparation methods, data analysis, and “wet” vs. “dry” measurements, are discussed.

Abstract
The Flory-Huggins (F-H) solubility equation has been widely used to describe the solubility of a small-molecule drug in a polymeric carrier and thus determine the design space available for formulating a stable amorphous solid dispersion. The F-H interaction parameter (χ) describes the thermodynamic properties of drug-polymer solutions and accounts for any enthalpic and entropic changes in solubility. Many studies have found that for a limited compositional range, χ varies proportionally to the inverse of the melting temperature of the drug. We explored this relationship using a highly sensitive DSC technique to detect remaining residual crystalline active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) following annealing of ball milled mixtures of crystalline itraconazole (ITZ) and either Soluplus or hydroxypropyl methylcellulose phthalate (HPMCP) at temperatures near the estimated solubility curve. Depending on the experimental approach taken, the measurement of drug-polymer solubility can be restricted to mixtures with a high proportion of drug, but in this study, solubility was experimentally determined for mixtures with API content as low as 10 wt %. Results suggest that the proposed linear relationship does not extend to compositions with smaller amounts of API, instead indicating that χ was both temperature- and composition-dependent for the systems studied. The feasibility of this technique to measure interactions in a ternary system containing itraconazole and both polymers was also determined; ITZ-HPMCP exhibited the most favorable values of χ, while ITZ-Soluplus and ITZ-Soluplus-HPMCP demonstrated similar interaction parameters.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to describe the raw material variability that influenced the in-vitro dissolution behavior of high drug-load sustained-release matrix tablet and to ensure the consistent quality of the final product. The Panax notoginseng saponins (PNS) - hydroxypropyl methylcellulose - anhydrous lactose - magnesium stearate (57:20:23:0.5%, w/w) was used as the model formulation. PNS extract powders with lot-to-lot and source-to-source differences were collected to cover the common cause variations and their physicochemical properties were characterized by the chromatographic fingerprints and the SeDeM expert system. It was found that the release behavior of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) in PNS from different batches exhibited considerable variations. Latent variable modeling results demonstrated that the physical properties of raw materials played major roles in predicting the drug dissolution. PNS extracts with high specific surface area, the width of particle size distribution and hygroscopicity or low moisture content led to an increase in drug release. In order to perform efficient pass/fail judgments for incoming new materials, multivariate specifications of critical material attributes (CMAs) were established and the multivariate design space in line with the quality by design (QbD) principles was explored to achieve the release target.

Abstract
In this paper degradable shape-memory polymer networks synthesized from oligo[(-lactide)--glycolide]dimethaycrylates are introduced. The macrodimethacrylates are prepared a two-step synthesis: hydroxy telechelic oligo[(-lactide)--glycolide]s with number average molecular weights ranging from 1000 to 5700 g mol were synthesized by ring-opening polymerization from ,-dilactide, diglycolide and ethylene glycol as initiator using dibutyltin oxide as the catalyst. These oligodiols are reacted with methacryloyl chloride resulting in terminal methacrylate groups. Crosslinking of macrodimethacrylates is performed under exposure to UV light without applying a photo initiator. The polymer networks obtained are transparent and hydrolytically degradable. While the mechanical properties at temperatures higher than depend on crosslinking density, is almost constant at about 55 °C. The shape-memory functionality of the amorphous polymer network was investigated by cyclic, thermomechanical tests under the systematic variation of different programming parameters. Good shape-memory properties with strain recovery rates close to 100% were obtained under stress-controlled programming. Under strain-controlled conditions, it needs to be considered that relatively high stresses can be generated during programming. Potential biomedical applications are intelligent implants or smart drug release systems.

Abstract
PURPOSE Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), molecular-composite PVP, and Plasdone S-630 copolyvidonum are potential polymeric film modifiers for achieving improved drug release. The aim of this study was to investigate how these polymeric additives would affect the physicomechanical properties of composite ethylcellulose films. METHODS The miscibility of these polymeric additives with ethylcellulose was determined from the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) thermograms of various polymer blends formed from organic solvents. It was found that ethylcellulose (EC) was miscible with the polymeric additives up to a concentration of 50%. Ten percent to 30% w/w polymeric additives were then added to aqueous ethylcellulose dispersion to form composite films. The morphology, film transparency, dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) thermograms, and mechanical properties of the composite ethylcellulose films were studied. In addition, puncture strength and % elongation of the dry and wet films were also compared from indentation test. RESULTS Significant reduction and change in film transparency and morphology was obtained for EC films blended with PVP of higher molecular weight (MW). The composite EC films also showed higher Tg, greater elastic modulus, tensile and puncture strength depending on the concentration and type of additives present. CONCLUSIONS The interaction between ethylcellulose and the polymeric additives is dependent on the MW and concentration of additives. The composite films offer new opportunities for the use of ethyl-cellulose as modified release coatings for dosage forms.

Abstract
Despite the widespread use of drug-loaded polymeric systems, there is still considerable uncertainty with regard to the nature of the distribution of the drug within the polymer matrix. The aim of this investigation was to develop thermal and microscopic techniques whereby the miscibility and spatial distribution of a model peptide, cyclosporin A (CyA), in hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) films may be studied. The new technique of T(zero)-modulated temperature differential scanning calorimetry (T(zero) MTDSC), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and pulse force mode atomic force microscopy (PFM-AFM) were used in conjunction to study films prepared using a solvent evaporation process, with a solvent extraction study performed to elucidate the nature of the observed phases. T(zero) MTDSC studies showed glass transitions for both the HPMC and CycA, with the T(g) for the HPMC and CycA seen for the mixed systems. SEM showed two spherical phases of differing electron density. PFM-AFM also showed spheres of differing adhesion that increased in size on addition of drug. Pixel intensity analysis indicated that the smaller spheres corresponded to CycA. Exposure of the films to dichloromethane, in which CycA is soluble but HPMC is not, resulted in the presence of voids that corresponded well to the spheres suggested to correspond to the drug. It was concluded that the system had undergone extensive or complete phase separation, and that the thermal and microscopic techniques outlined above are an effective means by which this issue may be studied.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the use of small-scale fusion experiments and the Gordon-Taylor (GT) equation to predict whether melt extrusion of a drug with an amorphous polymer produces a stable amorphous dispersion with increased drug dissolution. Indomethacin, lacidipine, nifedipine, piroxicam, and tolbutamide were used as poorly soluble drugs. Drug/polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) blends were prepared at a 1:1 mass ratio. Small-scale fusion experiments were performed in a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and in stainless steel beakers. Extrusion was performed in a Brabender Plasti-corder. The glass transition temperatures Tg were determined by DSC. Taking an average Tg from the DSC melt, beaker melt, and GT equation accurately predicted the extrudate Tg. Physical stability of beaker melt and extrudate samples was tested by X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) and DSC after storage at 30 degrees C (beaker melt) or 25 degrees C (extrudate) and less than 10%, 60%, and 75% relative humidity, (RH). Beaker melts were amorphous, apart from some residual crystallinity. Extrudates were amorphous after preparation. Except for indomethacin/PVP, which remained amorphous, the crystallinity of beaker melts and extrudates increased only at 75% RH. Recrystallization occurred even when the Tg of the sample was well above the storage temperature. Chemical stability of the beaker melts and extrudates was tested by capillary electrophoresis and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Stability was slightly improved in the extrudate compared to the beaker melt. In general, the order for rate of dissolution was crystalline drug was less than the physical mixture, which was less than the drug/PVP beaker melt, which was approximately equal to the extrudate. The use of beaker melts allows a conservative estimate of the potential to melt extrude a drug. To predict physical stability, analysis of the Tg must be combined with physical stability experiments.
