The invention provides a tamper-resistant dosage form including a therapeutic agent-substrate complex embedded in a thermo-formable matrix; such that the complex includes at least one therapeutic agent bound to at least one substrate to form the therapeutic agent-substrate complex. The at least one substrate is being selected from the group consisting of a polyelectrolyte, an organic counter-ion, a pharmacologically inert organic component of a prodrug, an inclusion compound and an inorganic adsorbent; and the thermo-formable matrix includes one or more thermoplastic polymers and optionally at least one pharmaceutical additive.

The present invention relates to compositions of eltrombopag olamine. The present invention also relates to process for preparing compositions comprising eltrombopag olamine.

A delivery device for a active agent comprises nanoparticles based on a biopolymer such as starch. The delivery device may also be in the form of an aptamer-biopolymer-active agent conjugate wherein the aptamer targets the device for the treatment of specific disorders, such as cancer. The delivery device survives for a period of time in the body sufficient to allow for transport and uptake of the delivery device into targeted cells. The degree of crosslinking can provide a desired release profile of the active agent at, near or inside the target cells. The nanoparticles may be made by applying a high shear force in the presence of a cross linker. The particles may be predominantly in the range of 50-150 nm and form a colloidal dispersion of crosslinked hydrogel particles in water.

The disclosure provides a drug delivery device that can release a drug or other molecule of interest in response to application of a mechanical force, such as tension, and methods of use thereof. The present disclosure provides a tension-responsive drug delivery device by exploiting a difference in mechanical properties between a drug-loaded core material and a supertiydrophobic barrier coating consisting of interconnected micro- and nano-sized particles formulated via the electrospraying of a mixture of biocompatible polymers.

The present invention relates to solid compositions comprising a GLP-1 peptide and a delivery agent, such as SNAC, as well as uses thereof.

Orally administrable pharmaceutical compositions and methods of administration are provided. The pharmaceutical compositions provide abuse deterrent properties.

An abuse-deterrent pharmaceutical composition has been developed to reduce the likelihood of improper administration of drugs, especially drugs such as opiods. In the preferred embodiment, the drug is modified to increase its lipophilicity by forming a salt between the drug and one or more fatty acids wherein the concentration of the one or more fatty acids is one to 15 times the molar amount of the active agent, preferably two to ten times the molar amount of the active agent. In one embodiment the modified drug is homogeneously dispersed within microparticles composed of a material that is either slowly soluble or not soluble in water. In some embodiments the drug containing microparticles or drug particles are coated with one or more coating layers, where at least one coating is water insoluble and preferably organic solvent insoluble. The abuse-deterrent composition prevents the immediate release of a substantial portion of drug, even if the physical integrity of the formulation is compromised (for example, by chopping with a blade or crushing) and the resulting material is placed in water, snorted, or swallowed. However, when administered as directed, the drug is slowly released from the composition as the composition is broken down or dissolved gradually within the GI tract by a combination of enzymatic degradation, surfactant action of bile acids, and mechanical erosion.

A pharmaceutical composition comprises at least one integrase inhibitor or its salt, solvate, complex, hydrate, isomer, ester, tautomer, anhydrate, enantiomer, polymorph or prodrug and at least one antiretroviral or anti-HIV agent or its salt, solvate, complex, hydrate, isomer, ester, tautomer, anhydrate, enantiomer, polymorph or prodrug.

Delivery of a drug is controlled to impart a delay before release after administration by formulating the drug with a disruption agent to provide a core, and coating the core with a regulatory membrane comprising a water-soluble gel-forming polymer and a water-insoluble film-forming polymer.

A pharmaceutical composition comprises at least one integrase inhibitor or its salt, solvate, complex, hydrate, isomer, ester, tautomer, anhydrate, enantiomer, polymorph or prodrug and at least one antiretroviral or anti-HIV agent or its salt, solvate, complex, hydrate, isomer, ester, tautomer, anhydrate, enantiomer, polymorph or prodrug.
