One of the methods of increasing solubility is freeze drying (lyophilization). The article provides a systematic review of studies published from 2012 to 2022 aimed at optimizing the properties of active pharmaceutical ingredients by freeze drying. This review was carried out in accordance with the recommendations of Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA). In general, 141 modifications of 36 APIs attributed to 12 pharmacological groups were reported in selected publications. To characterize the products of phase modification after lyophilization, a complex of analytical methods was used, including microscopic, thermal, X-ray, and spectral approaches. Solubility and pharmacokinetic parameters were assessed. There is a tendency to increase solubility due to the amorphization of APIs du...

This review is devoted to the problem of APIs phase state control both at the development stage and during the circulation of the drug. The term «polymorphism» has different definitions depending on the branch of science. There is no unambiguous solution to this issue in the regulatory documentation of pharmaceutical industry either. Based on the analysis of literary sources, the article presents a comparison of pharmacopeia methods, recommended in Russian and foreign regulatory documents for the analysis of polymorphism of medicinal substances, including state pharmacopeias of Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, the USA, and Japan, as well as international pharmacopeias of the European Economic Union and the Eurasian Economic Union. The trend on using a complex of high-tech equipment is revealed. A systematic approach to analysis based on X-ray diffraction, thermal, spectral, microscopic, biological, and physical methods for determining constants makes it possible not only to identify the polymorphic modification of API, but also to characterize its structure, morphology, physicochemical properties and pharmacological activity. In the Russian Federation, the phenomenon of polymorphism is being studied especially intensively, and some control methods, such as biological methods, are validated only in Russian pharmacopeia. A promising direction for further research is the improvement and harmonization of regulatory documentation within the framework of this chemical and technological field of pharmacy. A global approach will help to reduce not only the probability of poor-quality products entering the market, but also the costs of establishing the authenticity of the active pharmaceutical ingredient produced.

The poor water solubility of this flavanonol at ambient conditions inhibits its implementation in clinical practice as an injectable dosage form. Thus, increasing water solubility is a critical step toward solving this problem. Herein we attempted to deal with this problem via DHQ phase modification while at the same time adhering to the principles of green chemistry as much as possible. Lyophilization is an appropriate method to achieve phase modification in an environment-friendly way. This method was employed to generate new phase modifications of DHQ that were then characterized. Mixtures of water with ethanol or acetonitrile were used as solvents for the preparation of the lyophilizates, DHQE, and DHQA, respectively. The results of dissolution testing of the obtained DHQE and DHQA demonstrated that the lyophilization increased water solubility at least 30-fold times. These new DHQ modifications were stu...

Previously, taxifolin spheres (TS) were obtained from industrially produced API taxifolin in Russia (RT). In our work, we perform a pharmaceutical analysis of this new taxifolin material versus RT. TS is an amorphous material; however, it is stable without the polymer carrier, as confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Both RT and TS demonstrate high safety profiles and are assigned to Class 1 of the Biopharmaceutical Classification System based on the results of experiments with MDCK cells. The water solubility of the new taxifolin form was 2.225 times higher compared with RT. Hausner ratios for RT and TS were 1.421 and 1.219, respectively, while Carr indices were 29.63% and 19.00%, respectively. Additionally, TS demonstrated sustained release from tablets compared with RT: the half-life va...
