Drug Delivery and Mass Balance BIOE201-B

Slide 2

The concentration of the drug at the site of action, over time. Drug delivery is about the complex mechanisms to getting that concentration profile to happen. Delivery methods can be classified by the anatomical site they target (oral, injection, topical, transdermal, pulmonary, ophthalmic, rectal/vaginal, implantable depot device, etc.).

All drugs must diffuse through various barriers when administered to the body. Some drugs must diffuse through the skin, gastric mucosa, or some other barrier to gain access to the interior of the body. Parenteral drugs must diffuse through muscle, connective tissue, and so on, to get to the site of action. Intravenous drugs must diffuse from the blood to the site of action. Drugs must also diffuse through various barriers for metabolism and excretion. Laws governing diffusion are important to drug delivery systems

Slide 19

Ficks law for diffusion, compartmental analysis, and the general use of mass conservation equations. The mass conservation equation: In out + Generation - Consumption = Accumulation This equation, when properly replaced with mathematical terms, is used to describe transport everywhere. We can use simplified experiments and model fitting to calculate the value of drug diffusion constants, which can then be used to predict concentration profiles in relevant drug delivery scenarios.

Slide 20

Bioavailability is defined as a ratio of the areas under the curves (AUCs) of plasma concentration versus time. The AUC for intravenous injection is the standard, and any other delivery method is compared against that. Bioavailability and Area Under the Curve

Slide 21

Important Concepts Volume of distribution apparent volume into which a drug distributes in the body at equilibrium direct measure of the extent of distribution V = amount of drug in the body/Plasma drug concentration

Slide 22

Mathematical Modeling of Drug Disposition Single compartment Single compartment with absorption Two compartments Two compartments with absorption Physiological Models

Slide 23

These compartments don't usually correspond to actual bodily compartments, but they're still useful. The simplest case is the singlecompartment model. All the compartments are considered to be uniform and wellmixed. Compartmental analysis In cases where the drug doesn't readily distribute to the whole body immediately, it's better to model things with more than one model. For example, using two of them:

Slide 24

Single Compartment Model Assumptions: Body one compartment characterized by a volume of distribution (V d ) Drug is confined to the plasma (small V) C, V d absorption elimination k, C t C/C 0

Slide 25

One-Compartment Model with Absorption Low absorption occurs Absorption is the rate- limiting step Slow absorption may represent drug entry through GI tract or leakage into circulation after SC injection Drugs require multiple doses to maintain drug concentration within therapeutic window t M/D 0 t

Slide 27

Diffusion occurs when individual molecules move within a substance, as the result of a concentration gradient or by random molecular motion. Molecular diffusion from a microscopic and macroscopic point of view. Initially, there are solute molecules on the left side of a barrier (purple line) and none on the right. The barrier is removed, and the solute diffuses to fill the whole container. Top: A single molecule moves around randomly. Middle: With more molecules, there is a clear trend where the solute fills the container more and more uniformly. Bottom: With an enormous number of solute molecules, randomness becomes undetectable: The solute appears to move smoothly and systematically from high- concentration areas to low-concentration areas. This smooth flow is described by Fick's laws. Ficks Law

Slide 28

Ficks first law relates to a steady-state flow J = dM/(S dt)= -DdC/dX J = Flux (in g/cm 2 s) M = material (in g) S = surface area (in cm 2 ) t = time (in s) D = diffusion coefficient (in cm 2 /s) C = concentration (in g/cm 3 ) X = distance of movement (in cm) units: g/cm^2*s Steady State Diffusion Ficks second law relates to a change in concentration of drug with time, at any distance, or an unsteady state of flow. J= -D*(C1-C2)/h D = diffusion coefficient (in cm 2 /s) C = concentration (in g/cm 3 ) h = thickness of membrane (in cm) Non-Steady State Diffusion Partition Coefficient K=C1/Cd=C2/Cr K=[Drug]oil/[Drug]water determines concentration of drug in the membrane
