Abstract
In the present work, an attempt was undertaken to improve the oral bioavailability and anticancer activity of abiraterone acetate. Solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) were developed using the quality by design (QbD) principles and evaluated through in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo studies. Solid lipid suitability was evaluated by equilibrium solubility study, while surfactant and cosurfactant were screened based on the ability to form microemulsion with the selected lipid. SLNs were prepared by emulsion/solvent evaporation method using glyceryl monostearate, Tween 80, and Poloxamer 407 as the solid lipid, surfactant, and cosurfactant, respectively. Box-Behnken design was applied for optimization of material attributes and evaluating their impact on particle size, polydispersity index, zeta potential, and entrapment efficiency of the SLNs. In vitro drug release study was evaluated in simulated gastric and intestinal fluids. Cell culture studies on PC-3 cells were performed to evaluate the cytotoxicity of the drug-loaded SLNs in comparison to the free drug suspension. Qualitative uptake was evaluated for Rhodamine B-loaded SLNs and compared with free dye solution. Ex vivo permeability was evaluated on Wistar rat intestine and in vivo pharmacokinetic evaluation on Wistar rats for SLNs and free drug suspension. Concisely, the SLNs showed potential for significant improvement in the biopharmaceutical performance of the selected drug candidate over the existing formulations of abiraterone acetate.

Abstract
The present research work describes development of dual drug-loaded lipid-polymer hybrid nanoparticles (LPHNPs) of anticancer therapeutics for the management of colon cancer. The epidermal growth factor (EGF)-functionalized LPHNPs coloaded with 5-fluorouracil (FU) and sulforaphane (SFN) were prepared by one-step nanoprecipitation method. Box-Behnken design was applied for optimizing the material attributes and process parameters. The optimized LPHNPs revealed particle size 198 nm, polydispersity index 0.3, zeta potential -25.3 mV, and drug loading efficiency 19-20.3% for 5-FU and SFN, respectively. EGF functionalization on LPHNPs was confirmed from positive magnitude of zeta potential to 21.3 mV as compared with the plain LPHNPs. In vitro drug release performance indicated sustained and non-Fickian mechanism release nature of the drugs from LPHNPs. Anticancer activity evaluation in HCT-15 colon cancer cells showed significant reduction (p < 0.001) in the cell growth and cytotoxicity of the investigated drugs from various treatments in the order: EGF-functionalized LPHNPs > plain LPHNPs > free drug suspensions. Overall, the research work corroborated improved treatment efficacy of EGF-functionalized LPHNPs for delivering chemotherapeutic agents for the management of colon carcinoma.
