Abstract:
In order to improve the drug's solubility, dissolution and bioavailability, RG-β-CD, RG-γ-CD and RG-Hp-β-CD were prepared by co-crystallization between Regorafenib (RG) and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD), γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CD) and Hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (Hp-β-CD).Three inclusion complexes were prepared by recrystallization and solvent evaporation methods and characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), thermal analysis (TG), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD),H nuclear magnetic resonance (H-NMR), nuclear overhauser effect spectroscopy (NOESY).experiments, tumor suppression assay were made with SW620 colon cancer cell.The ability of solubility and dissolution were improved after inclusion with three kinds of cyclodextrins. The regorafenib-β-cyclodextrin inclusionis proved to have the best stability. The less enhanced was regorafenib-γ-cycl-odextrin inclusion. The best dissolution of regorafenib-β-cyclodextrin inclusion complex was to bring as the tumor suppression assay, the result shows that regorafenib inclusion with β-cyclodextrin is better than regorafenib itself.The bioavailability of regorafenib by inclusion with cyclodextrin can enhance due to the solubility enhancement of RG, which can provide an effective method for improving solubility and dissolution of insoluble drug in clinical medication.
