Abstract

The objective of this study was to develop and evaluate a floating gastroretentive in situ gel system containing Dexlansoprazole, a proton pump inhibitor used in the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Dexlansoprazole exhibits pH-dependent solubility and is primarily absorbed in the upper gastrointestinal tract, making it a suitable candidate for gastroretentive delivery. The in situ gelling system was formulated using sodium alginate in combination with pH independent polymers such as Eudragit RSPO and calcium carbonate as a cross-linking and gas-generating agent. The gels were designed to remain buoyant and undergo sol-gel transition upon contact with gastric fluid, thereby prolonging gastric residence time and improving drug bioavailability. The formulations were evaluated for viscosity, pH, gelation capacity, floating lag time, total floating duration, drug content, in vitro drug release. The optimized formulation exhibited satisfactory gelation, prolonged buoyancy (>12 hours), and sustained drug release over 8 hours following zero-order kinetics. The study concludes that floating in situ gel systems offer a promising approach for enhancing the gastric retention and therapeutic efficacy of Dexlansoprazole.

Introduction

Oral route for the delivery of the medication is considered as one of the oldest and most convenient method. With the new innovations and novelty in this method has made it possible to deliver the medication in a more sustained and controlled manner. GRDDS is the desirable approach for the optimized therapeutic benefit for a drug with narrow absorption window. Gastroretentive Drug Delivery System is a Novel Drug Delivery which is mainly comprised of Floating, Mucoadhesive, Swellable and High Density system. Floating drug delivery systems was first described by Davis in 1968. These are low-density systems that have sufficient buoyancy to float over the gastric contents and remain in the stomach for a prolonged period and one of the important approaches to achieve gastric retention and to obtain sufficient drug bioavailability. This system is desirable for drugs with low absorption window in the stomach or in the upper small intestine. FDDS having a bulk density lower than gastric fluids and thus, that remain buoyant in the stomach without affecting the gastric emptying rate for a prolonged period of time.

Dexlansoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) used primarily for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and other conditions involving excessive stomach acid. It is the R-enantiomer of lansoprazole which provides extended acid suppression.

The present study aims to formulate and evaluate floating gastroretentive drug delivery system to enhance its gastric residance time and to increase its bioavailibility. The insitu gel system is prepared using appropriate polymers through a pH triggered method and evaluated for its physicochemical properties, drug release behavior, and floating duration.

DRUG PROFILE

1. IUPAC Name: (R)-2-([3-methyl-4-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)pyridin-2-yl]methylsulfinyl)-1H-benzimidazole

  1. Molecular Formula: C16H14F3N3O2S
  2. Molecular Weight: 369.36 g/mol
  3. Drug Class: Proton pump inhibitor (PPI)
  4. Chirality: R-enantiomer of lansoprazole

2. Mechanism of Action

Dexlansoprazole selectively inhibits the H+/K+ ATPase enzyme system (proton pump) in the gastric parietal cells. This inhibition blocks the final step of acid production, thereby reducing gastric acidity. The dual delayed-release system allows for two separate releases of the drug, resulting in prolonged plasma concentration and acid suppression.

3. Pharmacokinetics

  • Absorption: Rapid absorption with peak plasma levels at 1–4.5 hours post-dose (biphasic peaks due to DDR).
  • Bioavailability: Not affected significantly by food
  • Protein Binding: Approximately 96–98%.
  • Metabolism: Extensively metabolized in the liver via CYP2C19 and CYP3A4.
  • Half-life: Approximately 1–2 hours, though acid suppression lasts longer due to irreversible enzyme binding.
  • Excretion: Primarily renal and fecal metabolities.

4. Dosage & Administration

  • Non-erosive GERD: 30 mg once daily for 4 weeks
  • Erosive esophagitis: 60 mg once daily for up to 8 weeks
  • Maintenance of healed EE: 30 mg once daily

5. Advantages of Dexlansoprazole

  • Once-daily dosing improves compliance
  • Effective even when taken without regard to meals
  • Reduced nocturnal acid breakthrough compared to other PPIs

6. Adverse Effects:

  • Common: Diarrhea, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, flatulence
  • Serious: Clostridioides difficile infection, vitamin B12 deficiency, hypomagnesemia, bone fractures, acute interstitial nephritis

MATERIALS AND METHODS:

1. Analytical chacterization of drug sample:

Stock solution (100μg/ml) of dexlansoprazole  was prepared in 0.1 HCL. This solution was appropriately diluted with 0.1 N HCl separately to obtain a concentration of 100 µg/ml dexlansoprazole in 0.1 N HCl and water respectively. The UV spectrum was recorded in the range of 200-400 nm on UV Visible Spectrophotometer.

2. FT-IR SPECTROSCOPY:

The FTIR studies are performed to observe any interaction between drug and polymers in the formulation. FTIR study of optimized floating insitu gel(F6 batch) was carried out. The FTIR spectra indicate that there is no interaction betweensodium alginate  & drug within insitu gel.

The spectrum of optimized floating insitu gel was found to be similar to pure dexlansoprazole drug.FTIR spectra shoes key functional peak of dexlansoprazole are retained in physical mixture spectrum such as C=C,C=O,C-H that confirms integrity of drug structure .There are additional broad peak such as at 3246.79cm-1 due to hydroxyl group from sodium alginate and shift around 1749.44 cm-1 likely due to Eudragit RSPO ester carbonyl. These donot overlap or mask drug peak, suggesting no major chemical interaction has occured.

3. Prepartion of floating insitu gel:

The formulation were prepared as given in table by heating polymer at 600C in deionized water with continious stirring .After cooling below 400C gas forming agent Calcium carbonate ,cross linking agent Calcium chloride ,buoyancy enhancer Sodium carbonate ,Dexlansoprazole were added with continious stirring.
