1 Effect of Formulation and Process Variables On Matrix Erosion and Drug Release from a Multiunit Erosion Matrix of a Poorly Soluble Drug Ketan A. Mehta, M. Serpil Kislalioglu,* Wantanee Phuapradit, A. Waseem Malick, and Navnit H. Shah The authors discuss the effects of polymer ratio, drug loading, granulation water level, pellet size, and spheronization time on matrix erosion and drug release of a poorly soluble drug from polymer-controlled matrix erosion pellets. They conclude that by optimizing the formulation and process variables, pellets can be prepared that can release a poorly soluble drug for h following zero-order kinetics. Ketan A.

Serpil Kislalioglu, PhD, is a professor of pharmaceutics at the Department of Applied Pharmaceutical Sciences, College of Pharmacy, The University of Rhode Island, Kingston, RI 2881, tel , fax Wantanee Phuapradit, PhD, is a research leader; A. Waseem Malick, PhD, is vice-president; and Navnit H. Shah is a distinguished research leader, all at the pharmaceutical and analytical research and development department of Hoffman La Roche Inc. (Nutley, NJ). *To whom all correspondence should be addressed. Previous literature has reported the design and evaluation of a novel, multiunit, erosion matrix that releases a poorly soluble drug by matrix erosion for 12 h (1). Several authors have studied factors such as polymer type, drug concentration, drug solubility, pelletization technique used, and so forth and their influence on drug release rate (2 9). All of these factors were evaluated for osmotically or diffusioncontrolled pellets using microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) as the principal pellet-forming agent and release rate governing polymer in the pellet. The pellets used in this study were manufactured using an extrusion spheronization technique. Therefore, any change in the formulation or process parameters may influence matrix erosion and drug release from the pellets (1). The aim of the study presented in this article was to investigate the influence of the most critical formulation variables (i.e., ratio of polymers used and drug loading) and process variables (i.e., water required for granulation, pellet size, and spheronization time) on matrix erosion and drug release from the pellets. The linear relationship between matrix erosion and drug release at various dissolution stirring speeds was described previously (1). That study concluded that in such systems, matrix erosion and drug release occurred simultaneously; thus, matrix erosion can be monitored to predict drug release from the pellets. 26 Pharmaceutical Technology FEBRUARY 22

Eudragit L 1-55 and Eudragit S 1 (Röhm Pharma, Degussa Corporation, Piscataway, NJ) were used as pellet-forming and release rate controlling polymers. Kollidon 9 F (BASF Inc., Parsipanny, NJ) was used as a binder. Avicel PH 11 (FMC Corporation, Philadelphia, PA) was used in the spheronization stage to prevent interpellet sticking. Triethyl citrate (Morflex, Inc., Greensboro, NC) was used as a plasticizer for the Eudragit polymers. All other chemicals were used as received. Formulation of pellets. Eudragit L 1-55 and Eudragit S 1 powders were mixed in a turbula mixer (turbula mixer, Impandex Inc., Maywood, NJ) for 3 min. Triethyl citrate was added to some formulations as a plasticizer, and the resultant mixture was triturated in a mortar for 5 min (see Table I). Drug and polyvinylpyrrolidone (Kollidon K9F) as a binder were added and mixed for 3 min in a turbula mixer. This mixture then was granulated with 7% w/w deionized water in a mortar and later extruded (LCI Xtruder, model DG-L1, Fuji Paudal Company, Ltd., Japan) at a screw speed of 4 rpm. The extrudates immediately were transferred onto a rotating plate in the spheronizer (G.B. Caleva Ltd, model 12, Dorset, England), which consisted of a stationary vertical cylinder with a friction plate (diameter 32 cm) of 2-mm cross-hatched pattern. Spheronization was carried out for 5 min at 5 rpm, followed by 15 min at 1 rpm. During the first 5-min period, 5% w/w of the total batch-size Avicel PH 11 was sprinkled over the rotating extrudates to prevent the pellets from sticking. Pellets obtained were dried on trays at 5 C for 12 h (Hotpack Oven, model , Hotpack Corporation, Philadelphia, PA). Composition of pellets prepared to evaluate formulation variables. Pellets of 2.-mm size were formulated to determine the effects of polymer ratio and drug loading. Table I shows the pellet compositions. Composition of pellets prepared to evaluate process variables. Pellets of 2.-mm size were formulated to determine the effects of granulation water level, pellet size, and spheronization time. Table I shows the pellet compositions for granulation water level studies. Pellets of.8-, 1.2-, and 2.-mm sizes each were formulated at spheronization times of 2, 1, and 2 min to determine the effects of pellet size and spheronization time on drug release and matrix erosion (see Table II). The formulation parameters maintained constant for this study were drug loading Table II: Pellets of different size prepared at different spheronization times. Pellet Size (mm) Spheronization Time (min) (1% w/w), polymer ratio (Eudragit L 1-55:Eudragit S 1 in a ratio of 1:3), Kollidon K9F (polyvinylpyrrolidone) as a binder (2% w/w), triethyl citrate as a plasticizer for Eudragit polymers (15% w/w of total Eudragit polymer content), and deionized water for granulation (7% w/w). In vitro release studies. Drug release was performed using a standard USP dissolution Apparatus I (dissolution system 21A, Distek Inc., North Brunswick, NJ; USP XXII). Pellets (1 mg) were immersed in 5 ml of ph 6.8 phosphate buffer maintained at C and stirred at 5 rpm. The baskets were removed at intervals of 2, 4, 6, 8, 1, and 12 h and were dried for 12 h at 5 C to achieve constant weight. The difference between the initial and final weight of the pellets was calculated to determine percent matrix erosion. This gravimetric method was used to determine matrix erosion in turn to predict percent drug release (1). Determination of pellet hardness. Pellet hardness was determined using a force measurement system (model TCD 2, Chatillon Inc., Greensboro, NC) attached with a 5-lb load cell. This instrument is similar to a miniature Instron machine suitable for conducting hardness testing of small samples such as minitablets and pellets. Two-millimeter-size samples (n = 1) were analyzed per data point (see Table III). Results and discussion Several studies have reported on the influence of formulation and process variables on drug release from pellets formulated by an extrusion spheronization process (2 9). However, the results of these studies are specific to the formulation and use either MCC or MCC with various hydrophilic or hydrophobic polymers in combination. Drug release from such matrices is 28 Pharmaceutical Technology FEBRUARY 22

Table III: Effect of spheronization time on pellet hardness. Spheronization Time (min) Pellet Hardness (g) (Mean SD) predominantly characterized by first-order kinetics because of the presence of MCC used as the matrix (11). Tapia et al. studied the effect of chitosan on drug release from matrix pellets manufactured by extrusion spheronization and concluded that drug delivery occurred by gel formation of chitosan through a diffusion process. Gel formation was found to be a direction function of polymer ratio. The rate-controlling polymers used in this study were Eudragit L 1-55 and Eudragit S 1. These polymers dissolve above ph 5.5 and 7., respectively. Some of their common commercial uses include tablet and pellet coatings to achieve controlled or sustained release. Figure 1 shows the effect of increased Eudragit S 1 content on drug release from 2.-mm pellets. The rate of drug release decreased as the amount of Eudragit S 1 increased in the formulation without any significant change in the release kinetics. Figure 2 shows the effect of drug loading on drug release. Matrix erosion data were used to compare the effects of drug loading with those of placebo pellets. This figure demonstrates that drug release from pellets with 5, 1, and 2% w/w drug loading was similar to that of placebo pellets, which strongly indicates that the drug-release mechanism was matrix erosion controlled to as much as 2% w/w drug loading. However, at levels greater than 2% w/w drug loading, release rates decreased as the drug load increased to as much as 4% w/w. This may have occurred because of the presence of excessive amounts of hydrophobic drug in the pellet matrix. Many researchers have investigated the influence of the amount of granulation liquid on the drug release rate from pellets made by extrusion spheronization (4,5). Baert et al. demonstrated that a decrease in release rate was caused by an increase in the amount of granulating liquid. They correlated the effects of granulation liquid with the difference in hardness, density, and structure of the pellets. Jerwanska et al. concluded that the rate of drug release increased with increased levels of granulation liquid because of a greater degree of porosity obtained after drying. They also correlated these results with differences in hardness of the pellets. Figure 3 shows the effect of granulation water level on the matrix pellets prepared using Eudragit L 1-55 and Eudragit S 1 polymers as the rate-controlling and pellet-forming agents. Increased granulation water levels had a direct effect on the drug release rates. This finding is similar to the findings of Jerwanska et al. (5). However, no significant difference seemed to exist in the release rates above the 65% w/w granulation water level. This result can be explained by the effect of moisture content on the degree of liquid saturation of the extrudates. Jerwanska et al. proposed that for a continuous extrusion process, adequate water is required to bridge the particles together until liquid saturation in the granulation is achieved. This strategy is necessary to deform the granulation to form extrudates and consequently shape them into spheres by spheronization. If the granulation water level is below the liquid saturation point, then the spheres obtained will be hard and less porous, thereby leading to decreased drug release rates. Above the liquid saturation point, the hardness and porosity of the pellets are not significantly decreased. 3 Pharmaceutical Technology FEBRUARY 22

Drug release rate (%/h) mm 1.2 mm 2. mm Spheronization time (min) Figure 4: Effect of pellet size and spheronization time on drug release rate from pellets (drug load 1% w/w; n 4 SE). To investigate the most-critical spheronization times that would have an effect on drug release, pellets were spheronized for 2, 5, 8, 1, 2, and 4 min, and the resulting hardness of pellets was measured using the Chatillon force measurement system attached with a 5-lb load cell. Table III shows the results of a pellet hardness test on 1 pellets per spheronization time. Table III also shows that pellet hardness changes with spheronization time until 1 min, with maximum hardness recorded for pellets spheronized at 8 min, after which the hardness decreases until the 2-min point. No significant difference in pellet hardness from 2 to 4 min was observed. This finding may be explained by the densification process occurring during the spheronization step. As spheronization time progresses from time zero to time t, the extrudates are cut into uniform particles and shaped into spheres by the centrifugal and frictional forces present in the spheronizer during operation. These forces act on each and every particle, making them more dense and more spherical with time. However, after a critical period, no further densification occurs with an increase in spheronization time. Data shown in Table III indicate that the pellet densification process takes 1 min, after which very minor changes in densification occur. Thus, spheronization times of 2, 1, and 2 min were selected to study the effects of time on drug release. Figure 4 shows the effect of spheronization time on the drug release rate from.8-, 1.2-, and 2.-mm pellets. Spheronization time appears to affect drug release rates at the 2- and 1-min processing times for.8-, 1.2-, and 2.-mm pellets. This effect became less pronounced when the pellet size increased from.8 to 2. mm. However, no significant difference exists in the drug release profile of 1.2- and 2.-mm pellets after 1 min. The duration of drug release increased as the pellet size increased without any change in release kinetics for pellets larger than 1.2 mm. Conclusion This study shows the effects of various formulation parameters (ratio of polymers and drug loading) and process parameters (granulation water level, pellet size, and spheronization time) on drug release from multiunit matrix pellets. Each parameter evaluated demonstrated a change in drug release from the pellets. Increased amounts of Eudragit S 1 polymer retarded the rate of matrix erosion and drug release from the pellets. Drug loading had no influence on drug release mechanism for levels as high as 2% w/w. Above this point, increasing amounts of drug to as much as 4% w/w retarded matrix erosion. Granulation water level at 65% w/w had a significant effect on the rate of matrix erosion and drug release when compared with the formulation with a 6% w/w granulation water level. Above a 65% w/w level, no significant effect was observed on the rate of matrix erosion and drug release. Matrix erosion and drug release rates can be optimized by processing the pellets at various spheronization times. Thus, by altering the formulation and process variables, one can obtain pellets that can release a poorly soluble drug by a polymercontrolled, surface-erosion mechanism for 12 h following zeroorder kinetics.
