English Abstract

Quality by design (QbD) is a key approach in pharmaceutical process development.

This study focused on the application of QbD principles to develop multiparticulate system (MPS) with controlled release profile.

Model drug, ibuprofen, was employed to develop the controlled release MPS using wet granulation method.

The project started with validation of quantitative analytical technique for ibuprofen using UV-spectrometry and based on the ICH guidelines in terms of specificity, accuracy, precision, linearity, limit of detection and limit of quantification.

To enable effective QbD project, initial screening studies were conducted.

The outcome of the screening studies set the boundaries for the QbD, where critical factors and product quality attributes were identified.

Granulation process was optimized and a range of analytical techniques were investigated during screening process to assess the quality of the produced granules.

Characterization included, granules size analysis, hardness test, moisture content analysis, coating process, flowability test, FTIR analysis and drug release studies.

The results were used to establish the boundaries of the design of experiment (DOE) using MODDE software to detect the relationship between factors (HPMC, Ibuprofen, ethylcellulose concentrations) and the critical quality attributes/ responses (dissolution of coarse and fine MPS, content uniformity and flowability of coarse and fine MPS).

The produced model was verified using multiple verification tools then the coefficient plots were used to understand the effect of factors on responses.

The outcome of this study was the determination of design space to specify the desirable range of input parameters for successful MPS.

Ethylcellulose concentration of 0.25%- 0.5% and HPMC concentration of 15%- 30% were the key factors affecting MPS performance.

The produced MPS could be further used to develop several dosage forms ranging from granules in sachets, capsules or compressed into orally disintegrating tablets which could be suitable for age specific population.
