New Perspectives for Antihypertensive Sartans as Components of Co-crystals and Co-amorphous Solids with Improved Properties and Multipurpose Activity.

Sartans (angiotensin II receptor blockers, ARBs), drugs used in the treatment of hypertension, play a principal role in addressing the global health challenge of hypertension. In the past three years, their potential use has expanded to include the possibility of their application in the treatment of COVID-19 and neurodegenerative diseases (80 clinical studies worldwide). However, their therapeutic efficacy is limited by their poor solubility and bioavailability, prompting the need for innovative approaches to improve their pharmaceutical properties. This review discusses methods of co-crystallization and co-amorphization of sartans with nonpolymeric, low molecular, and stabilizing co-formers, as a promising strategy to synthesize new multipurpose drugs with enhanced pharmaceutical properties. The solid-state forms have demonstrated the potential to address the poor solubility limitations of conventional sartan formulations and offer new opportunities to develop dual-active drugs with broader therapeutic applications. The review includes an in-depth analysis of the co-crystal and co-amorphous forms of sartans, including their properties, possible applications, and the impact of synthetic methods on their pharmacokinetic properties. By shedding light on the solid forms of sartans, this article provides valuable insights into their potential as improved drug formulations. Moreover, this review may serve as a valuable resource for designing similar solid forms of sartans and other drugs, fostering further advances in pharmaceutical research and drug development.

Improved Dissolution Properties of Co-amorphous Probucol with Atorvastatin Calcium Trihydrate Prepared by Spray-Drying.

A co-amorphous model drug was prepared by the spray-drying (SD) of probucol (PC) and atorvastatin calcium trihydrate salt (ATO) as low water solubility and co-former components, respectively. The physicochemical properties of the prepared samples were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) analysis, thermal analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and dissolution tests. Stability tests were also conducted under a stress environment of 40 °C and 75% relative humidity. The results of PXRD measurements and thermal analysis suggested that PC and ATO form a co-amorphous system by SD. Thermal analysis also indicated an endothermic peak that followed an exotherm in amorphous PC and a physical mixture (PM) of amorphous PC and ATO; however, no endothermic peak was detected in the co-amorphous system. The dissolution profiles for PC in the co-amorphous sample composed of PC and ATO were improved compared to those for raw PC crystals or the PM. Stability tests indicated that the co-amorphous material formed by PC and ATO can be stored for 35 d without crystallization, whereas amorphous PC became crystallized within a day. Therefore, co-amorphization of PC and ATO prepared by SD is considered to be a useful method to improve the solubility of PC in water.

Influence of Co-amorphization on the Physical Stability and Dissolution Performance of an Anthelmintic Drug Flubendazole.

In this work, the co-amorphization approach was applied to flubendazole (FluBZ), resulting in the formation of two novel solid forms of FluBZ with l-phenylalanine (Phe) and l-tryptophan (Trp). A variety of physicochemical techniques have been used to describe new systems, including powder X-ray diffraction, thermal methods, infrared spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. Co-amorphization has been shown to suppress crystallization tendency and considerably increase the shelf-life storage of amorphous flubendazole solid across a wide range of relative humidities. The dissolution behavior of the amorphous forms in biorelevant media at pH = 1.6, pH = 6.5, and 37 °C has been studied in terms of Cmax (maximum FluBZ concentration), Tmax (time to attain peak drug concentration), and AUC (concentration area under the curve during dissolution). At pH = 6.5, a continuous supersaturation and the highest AUC value of all examined systems were observed for the FluBZ-Phe (1:1) system. The phase solubility diagrams revealed that the reason for the better dissolution performance of FluBZ-Phe (1:1) at pH = 6.5 is a complexation between the components in a solution. This work highlights the applicability of co-amorphous systems in improving the physical stability and dissolution performance of drug compounds with poor biopharmaceutical characteristics.

Improvement in Inhalation Properties of Theophylline and Levofloxacin by Co-Amorphization and Enhancement in Its Stability by Addition of Amino Acid as a Third Component.

Co-amorphous systems are amorphous formulations stabilized by the miscible dispersion of small molecules. This study aimed to design a stable co-amorphous system for the co-delivery of two drugs to the lungs as an inhaled formulation. Theophylline (THE) and levofloxacin (LEV) were used as model drugs for treating lung infection with inflammation. Leucine (LEU) or tryptophan (TRP) was employed as the third component to improve the inhalation properties. The co-amorphous system containing THE and LEV in an equal molar ratio was successfully prepared via spray drying where reduction of the particle size and change to the spherical morphology were observed. The addition of LEU or TRP at a one-tenth molar ratio to THE-LEV did not affect the formation of the co-amorphous system, but only TRP acted as an antiplasticizer. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy spectra revealed intermolecular interactions between THE and LEV in the co-amorphous system that were retained after the addition of LEU or TRP. The co-amorphous THE-LEV system exhibited better in vitro aerodynamic performance than a physical mixture of these compounds and permitted the simultaneous delivery of both drugs in various stages. The co-amorphous THE-LEV system crystallized at 40 °C, and this crystallization was not prevented by LEU. However, THE-LEV-TRP maintained its amorphous state for 1 month. Thus, TRP can act as a third component to improve the physical stability of the co-amorphous THE-LEV system, while maintaining the enhanced aerodynamic properties.

Sinapic Acid Co-Amorphous Systems with Amino Acids for Improved Solubility and Antioxidant Activity.

The objective of this study was to obtain co-amorphous systems of poorly soluble sinapic acid using amino acids as co-formers. In order to assess the probability of the interaction of amino acids, namely, arginine, histidine, lysine, tryptophan, and proline, selected as co-formers in the amorphization of sinapic acid, in silico studies were carried out. Sinapic acid systems with amino acids in a molar ratio of 1:1 and 1:2 were obtained using ball milling, solvent evaporation, and freeze drying techniques. X-ray powder diffraction results confirmed the loss of crystallinity of sinapic acid and lysine, regardless of the amorphization technique used, while remaining co-formers produced mixed results. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy analyses revealed that the co-amorphous sinapic acid systems were stabilized through the creation of intermolecular interactions, particularly hydrogen bonds, and the potential formation of salt. Lysine was selected as the most appropriate co-former to obtain co-amorphous systems of sinapic acid, which inhibited the recrystallization of sinapic acid for a period of six weeks in 30 °C and 50 °C. Obtained co-amorphous systems demonstrated an enhancement in dissolution rate over pure sinapic acid. A solubility study revealed a 12.9-fold improvement in sinapic acid solubility after introducing it into the co-amorphous systems. Moreover, a 2.2-fold and 1.3-fold improvement in antioxidant activity of sinapic acid was observed with respect to the ability to neutralize the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical and to reduce copper ions, respectively.

Solid-Liquid Equilibrium in Co-Amorphous Systems: Experiment and Prediction.

In this work, the solid-liquid equilibrium (SLE) of four binary systems combining two active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) capable of forming co-amorphous systems (CAMs) was investigated. The binary systems studied were naproxen-indomethacin, naproxen-ibuprofen, naproxen-probucol, and indomethacin-paracetamol. The SLE was experimentally determined by differential scanning calorimetry. The thermograms obtained revealed that all binary mixtures investigated form eutectic systems. Melting of the initial binary crystalline mixtures and subsequent quenching lead to the formation of CAM for all binary systems and most of the compositions studied. The experimentally obtained liquidus and eutectic temperatures were compared to theoretical predictions using the perturbed-chain statistical associating fluid theory (PC-SAFT) equation of state and conductor-like screening model for real solvents (COSMO-RS), as implemented in the Amsterdam Modeling Suite (COSMO-RS-AMS). On the basis of the obtained results, the ability of these models to predict the phase diagrams for the investigated API-API binary systems was evaluated. Furthermore, the glass transition temperature (Tg) of naproxen (NAP), a compound with a high tendency to recrystallize, whose literature values are considerably scattered, was newly determined by measuring and modeling the Tg values of binary mixtures in which amorphous NAP was stabilized. Based on this analysis, erroneous literature values were identified.

Design of experiments approach on the compaction properties of co-amorphous tablets.

Co-amorphous systems are an evolving strategy to stabilize the amorphous form of a drug molecule with the aim of overcoming its poor water-solubility. With research focussing on the molecular level of co-amorphous systems, little is known about their downstream processing. In this study, tablets of co-amorphous carvedilol and aspartic acid (CAR-ASP) with calcium hydrogen phosphate and croscarmellose sodium as excipients were produced using a compaction simulator. The amorphous form of spray dried CAR-ASP and the subsequently produced tablets was confirmed with XRPD. Over the storage time of 12 weeks, no recrystallization of the amorphous material was observed. A central composite face-centred design with three factors was set up to investigate the interplay of formulation and processing variables with the tablet characteristics elastic work, tensile strength and disintegration time. As a result, increasing the amount of co-amorphous material led to a decrease in elastic work and an increased tensile strength. These effects were beneficial for tablet properties, namely harder tablets and reduced elasticity. Disintegration time was prolonged by amounts of up to 25-30% co-amorphous material, while larger amounts induced faster tablet disintegration. While showing the feasibility of compacting co-amorphous material with calcium hydrogen phosphate, this study also gives insight into how tablet characteristics are affected by co-amorphous material and relevant process parameters.

Characterization of co-amorphous carvedilol-maleic acid system prepared by solvent evaporation.

The aim of this study was to enhance the solubility and stability of the water-insoluble drug carvedilol (CAR) with maleic acid (MLE) to create a co-amorphous system by a solvent evaporation method. Phase diagrams of co-amorphous CAR-MLE, constructed from peak height in the Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectra and the glass transition temperature (Tg) from differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurements, revealed that the optimal molar ratio of CAR to MLE was 2:1. The FTIR spectra indicated that the secondary amine-derived peak of CAR and the carboxy group-derived peak of MLE disappeared in the CAR:MLE (2:1) co-amorphous system. DSC measurements showed that the endothermic peaks associated with the melting of CAR and MLE disappeared and a Tg at 43 °C was apparent. Furthermore, the solubility of CAR tested using the shaking flask method for 24 h at 37 °C was 1.2 µg/mL, whereas that of the co-amorphous system was approximately three times higher, at 3.5 µg/mL. Finally, the stability was evaluated by powder- X-ray diffraction at 40 °C; no clear diffraction peaks originating from crystals were observed in the amorphous state until after approximately three months of storage. These results indicate that co-amorphization of CAR with MLE improved the solubility of CAR while maintaining its stability in an amorphous form.

Amorphization of Low Soluble Drug with Amino Acids to Improve Its Therapeutic Efficacy: a State-of-Art-Review.

Low aqueous solubility of drug candidates is an ongoing challenge and pharmaceutical manufacturers pay close attention to amorphization (AMORP) technology to improve the solubility of drugs that dissolve poorly. Amorphous drug typically exhibits much higher apparent solubility than their crystalline form due to high energy state that enable them to produce a supersaturated state in the gastrointestinal tract and thereby improve bioavailability. The stability and augmented solubility in co-amorphous (COA) formulations is influenced by molecular interactions. COA are excellent carriers-based drug delivery systems for biopharmaceutical classification system (BCS) class II and class IV drugs. The three important critical quality attributes, such as co-formability, physical stability, and dissolution performance, are necessary to illustrate the COA systems. New amorphous-stabilized carriers-based fabrication techniques that improve drug loading and degree of AMORP have been the focus of emerging AMORP technology. Numerous low-molecular-weight compounds, particularly amino acids such as glutamic acid, arginine, isoleucine, leucine, valine, alanine, glycine, etc., have been employed as potential co-formers. The review focus on the prevailing drug AMORP strategies used in pharmaceutical research, including in situ AMORP, COA systems, and mesoporous particle-based methods. Moreover, brief characterization techniques and the application of the different amino acids in stabilization and solubility improvements have been related.

Influence of Water on Amorphous Lidocaine.

Water is generally regarded as a universal plasticizer of amorphous drugs or amorphous drug-containing systems. A decrease in glass-transition temperature (Tg) is considered the general result of this plasticizing effect. A recent study exhibits that water can increase the Tg of amorphous prilocaine (PRL) and thus shows an anti-plasticizing effect. The structurally similar drug lidocaine (LID) might show similar interactions with water, and thus an anti-plasticizing effect of water is hypothesized to also occur in amorphous LID. However, the influence of water on the Tg of LID cannot be determined directly due to the very low stability of LID in the amorphous form. It is possible to predict the Tg of LID from a co-amorphous system of PRL-LID using the Gordon-Taylor equation. Interactions were observed between PRL and LID based on the deviations between the experimental Tgs and the Tgs calculated by the conventional use of the Gordon-Taylor equation. A modified use of the Gordon-Taylor equation was applied using the optimal co-amorphous system as a separate component and the excess drug as the other component. The predicted Tg of fully hydrated LID could thus be determined and was found to be increased by 0.9 ± 0.7 K compared with the Tg of water-free amorphous LID. It could be shown that water exhibited a small anti-plasticizing effect on LID.

Impact of Molecular Surface Diffusion on the Physical Stability of Co-Amorphous Systems.

In this study, surface diffusion of l-aspartic acid-carvedilol (ASP-CAR) co-amorphous systems at different ASP concentrations is measured and correlated with their physical stability. ASP-CAR films at ASP concentrations of 1-5% (w/w) were prepared by a newly developed method based on a vacuum compression molding process. Surface diffusion measurements were conducted on these systems based on the surface grating decay method using atomic force microscopy (AFM). The results demonstrate that a small amount of ASP (i.e., ≤ 5% w/w) in the co-amorphous systems could significantly slow down the grating decay process compared with that of pure amorphous CAR, indicating a reduced surface diffusion of CAR molecules. The decay time gradually increased in co-amorphous systems with increasing ASP concentration from 1 to 5% (w/w), with the longest observed decay time of around 800 h for the 5%ASP-CAR system, which was more than 200 times longer compared to the decay time of pure amorphous CAR (approximately 3 h). A good correlation between the decay constants of the pure amorphous CAR and co-amorphous films at ASP concentrations of 1-5% (w/w) and the physical stability of corresponding amorphous powder samples was found. Overall, this study provides a new method to prepare co-amorphous films for surface property measurements and reveals the impact of surface diffusion on the physical stability of co-amorphous systems.

Co-amorphous Systems of Sinomenine with Platensimycin or Sulfasalazine: Physical Stability and Excipient-Adjusted Release Behavior.

There is strong interest to develop affordable treatments for the infection-associated rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Here, we present a drug-drug co-amorphous strategy against RA and the associated bacterial infection by the preparation and characterization of two co-amorphous systems of sinomenine (SIN) with platensimycin (PTM) or sulfasalazine (SULF), two potent antibiotics. Both of them were comprehensively characterized using powder X-ray diffraction, temperature-modulated differential scanning calorimetry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The co-amorphous forms of SIN-PTM and SIN-SULF exhibited high Tgs at 139.10 ± 1.0 and 153.3 ± 0.2 °C, respectively. After 6 months of accelerated tests and 1 month of drug-excipient compatibility experiments, two co-amorphous systems displayed satisfactory physical stability. The formation of salt and strong intermolecular interactions between SIN and PTM or SULF, as well as the decreased molecular mobility in co-amorphous systems, may be the intrinsic mechanisms underlying the excellent physical stability of both co-amorphous systems. In dissolution tests, two co-amorphous systems displayed distinct reduced SIN-accumulative releases (below 20% after 6 h of release experiments), which may lead to its poor therapeutic effect. Hence, we demonstrated a controlled release strategy for SIN by the addition of a small percentage of polymers and a small-molecule surfactant to these two co-amorphous samples as convenient drug excipients, which may also be used to improve the unsatisfactory dissolution behaviors of the previously reported SIN co-amorphous systems. Several hydrogen bonding interactions between SIN and PTM or SULF could be identified in NMR experiments in DMSO-d6, which may be underlying reasons of decreased dissolution behaviors of both co-amorphous forms. These drug-drug co-amorphous systems could be a potential strategy for the treatment of infection-associated RA.

Amorphous systems for delivery of nutraceuticals: challenges opportunities.

Amorphous solid products have recently gained a lot of attention as key solutions to improve the solubility and bioavailability of poorly soluble nutraceuticals. A pure amorphous drug is a high-energy form; physically/chemically unstable and so easily gets recrystallized into the less soluble crystalline form limiting solubility and bioavailability issues. Amorphous solid dispersion and co-amorphous are new formulation approach that stabilized unstable amorphous form through different mechanisms such as preventing mobility, high glass transition temperature and molecular interaction. Nutraceuticals have been received the utmost importance due to their health benefits. However, most of these compounds have been associated with poor oral bioavailability due to poor solubility, high lipophilicity, high melting point, poor permeability, degradability and rapid metabolism in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) which limits its health benefits. This review provides us a systematic application of amorphous systems to the delivery of poorly soluble nutraceuticals, with the aim of overcoming their pharmacokinetic limitations and improved pharmacological potential. In particular, it describes the challenges associated with delivery of oral nutraceuticals, various methods involved in the preparation and characterization of amorphous systems and permeability enhancement of nutraceuticals are in detail.

Raloxifene HCl - quercetin co-amorphous system: preparation, characterization, and investigation of its behavior in phosphate buffer.

PURPOSE: Raloxifene HCl (RLX), a practically insoluble drug used in the treatment of osteoporosis in post-menopausal women; was modified at its molecular level to enhance its solubility using co-amorphous technology. METHODS: In this study, RLX was co-amorphized with Quercetin (QCT; a nutraceutical flavonoid) using solvent evaporation (SE), quench cooling (QC), and ball milling (BM) techniques. The prepared co-amorphous systems (CAMs) were characterized using XRD, DSC, and FT-IR. For the simultaneous analysis of RLX and QCT, an RP-HPLC method was developed to quantify the drugs in the prepared systems. Behavior in aqueous media was investigated by studying amorphous and equilibrium solubility, and drug release of RLX using USP phosphate buffer pH 6.8. RESULTS: Solvent evaporation (RQ(SE)) was able to produce a homogeneous system, where quench cooling showed thermal degradation of the drug, and ball milling was not able to amorphize the blend. From the DSC results, it was found that RQ(SE) was able to increase the glass transition temperature by 40 °C. It was observed that the solubility of RLX reduced, as RLX formed phosphate aggregates in the buffer media which further formed complexes with QCT; this was determined by investigating the residual particles from solubility studies. Though the solubility was reduced, drug release of RQ(SE) exhibited improvement in concentration by 2.3 times. CONCLUSIONS: RQ(SE) formed a stable CAM; though the solubility of RLX in presence of QCT reduced, from the drug release study, it was apparent that the co-amorphous technique improved the concentration of RLX.

Amorphous and Co-Amorphous Olanzapine Stability in Formulations Intended for Wet Granulation and Pelletization.

The preparation of amorphous and co-amorphous systems (CAMs) effectively addresses the solubility and bioavailability issues of poorly water-soluble chemical entities. However, stress conditions imposed during common pharmaceutical processing (e.g., tableting) may cause the recrystallization of the systems, warranting close stability monitoring throughout production. This work aimed at assessing the water and heat stability of amorphous olanzapine (OLZ) and OLZ-CAMs when subject to wet granulation and pelletization. Starting materials and products were characterized using calorimetry, diffractometry and spectroscopy, and their performance behavior was evaluated by dissolution testing. The results indicated that amorphous OLZ was reconverted back to a crystalline state after exposure to water and heat; conversely, OLZ-CAMs stabilized with saccharin (SAC), a sulfonic acid, did not show any significant loss of the amorphous content, confirming the higher stability of OLZ in the CAM. Besides resistance under the processing conditions of the dosage forms considered, OLZ-CAMs presented a higher solubility and dissolution rate than the respective crystalline counterpart. Furthermore, in situ co-amorphization of OLZ and SAC during granule production with high fractions of water unveils the possibility of reducing production steps and associated costs.

Co-amorphous Drug Delivery Systems: a Review of Physical Stability, In Vitro and In Vivo Performance.

Over the past few decades, co-amorphous solids have been used as a promising approach for delivering poorly water-soluble drugs. Co-amorphous solids, comprising pharmacologically relevant drug substances or excipients, improve physical stability, solubility, dissolution, and bioavailability compared with single amorphous ingredients. In this review, we have summarized recent advances in physical stability and in vitro and in vivo performances of co-amorphous solids. We have highlighted the role of molar ratio, molecular interaction, and mobility that affects the physical stability of co-amorphous solids. This review delves deep as to how co-amorphous solids affect the physicochemical properties in vitro and in vivo. We also described the challenges to the formulation of co-amorphous solids. A better understanding of the mechanisms of the physical stability, in vitro and in vivo performance of co-amorphous solids, and proper selection of the co-former is likely to expedite the development of robust co-amorphous-based pharmaceutical formulations and can address the challenges associated with the delivery of poorly soluble drugs.

[Co-amorphous technology to improve dissolution and physical stability of silybin].

The present study explored the effect of co-amorphous technology in improving the dissolution rate and stability of silybin based on the puerarin-silybin co-amorphous system prepared by the spray-drying method. Solid-state characterization was carried out by powder X-ray diffraction(PXRD), polarizing microscopy(PLM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR), differential scanning calorimetry(DSC), etc. Saturated powder dissolution, intrinsic dissolution rate, moisture absorption, and stability were further investigated. The results showed that puerarin and silybin formed a co-amorphous system at a single glass transition temperature which was higher than that of any crude drug. The intrinsic dissolution rate and supersaturated powder dissolution of silybin in the co-amorphous system were higher than those of the crude drug and amorphous system. The co-amorphous system kept stable for as long as three months under the condition of 40 ℃, 75% relative humidity, which was longer than that of the single amorphous silybin. Therefore, the co-amorphous technology could significantly improve the dissolution and stability of silybin.

A Multivariate Approach for the Determination of the Optimal Mixing Ratio of the Non-Strong Interacting Co-Amorphous System Carvedilol-Tryptophan.

Converting crystalline compounds into co-amorphous systems is an effective way to improve the solubility of poorly water-soluble drugs. It is, however, of critical importance for the physical stability of co-amorphous systems to find the optimal mixing ratio of the drug with the co-former. In this study, a novel approach for this challenge is presented, exemplified with the co-amorphous system carvedilol-tryptophan (CAR-TRP). Following X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) of the ball-milled samples to confirm their amorphous form, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and principal component analysis (PCA) were applied to investigate intermolecular interactions. A clear deviation from a purely additive spectrum of CAR and TRP was visualized in the PCA score plot, with a maximum at around 30% drug (mol/mol). This deviation was attributed to hydrogen bonds of CAR with TRP ether groups. The sample containing 30% drug (mol/mol) was also the most stable sample during a stability test. Using the combination of FTIR with PCA is an effective approach to investigate the optimal mixing ratio of non-strong interacting co-amorphous systems.

Pharmaceutical Co-Crystals, Salts, and Co-Amorphous Systems: A Novel Opportunity of Hot Melt Extrusion.

Enhancing the solubility of active drug ingredients is a major challenge faced by scientists and researchers. Different approaches have been explored for the enhancement of solubility and physicochemical properties of drugs, without affecting their stability or pharmacological activity. Among the various strategies available, pharmaceutical co-crystals, co-amorphous systems, and pharmaceutical salts as multicomponent systems (MCS) have gained interest to improve physicochemical properties of drugs. Development of MCS by conventional methods involves the utilization of excess amount of solvents, thus, making the product prone to instability, and may also cause harmful side effects in patients. Scale up is critical and involves the investment of huge capital and time. Lately, hot-melt extrusion has been utilized in the development of MCS to enhance solubility, bioavailability, stability, and physicochemical properties of the drugs. In this review, the authors discussed the development of different MCS produced via hot-melt extrusion technology. Specifically, approaches for screening of co-formers and co-crystals, selection of excipients for co-amorphous systems, pharmaceutical salts, and significance of MCS and process parameters affecting product quality are discussed.

Evaluation of Drug Dissolution Rate in Co-amorphous and Co-crystal Binary Drug Delivery Systems by Thermodynamic and Kinetic Methods.

In order to better explain and predict the dissolution characteristics of binary drug delivery systems (BDDSs), the dissolution behaviors of co-crystal (CC) and co-amorphous (CA) systems of sacubitril (SCB) and valsartan (VST) were evaluated in vitro and in vivo by thermodynamic and kinetic methods. The CCs of SCB and VST were prepared into a CA state through rotary evaporation. Solid-state properties were systematically evaluated. Herein, based on the results from previous studies of single-phase systems, we used thermodynamic methods to evaluate the increase in drug dissolution rate after BDDSs change from the crystalline to the amorphous state. After comparing the predicted and measured dissolution rate enhancement of the CC and CA systems, this paper attempts to explain the dissolution rate characteristics of the BDDSs. We then evaluated the bioavailability of two BDDSs in beagle dogs to confirm that there was no discrepancy in vivo with the results obtained in vitro. The results exhibited that there is strong intermolecular interaction between SCB and VST and good physical stability for the CA system. Compared with the CC, the bioavailability of SCB and VST in the CA system increased by 313.9% and 130.5%, respectively. The predicted dissolution rate ratio between CC and CA systems and their actual intrinsic dissolution rates differed by only a factor of 2.5, demonstrating the good correlation between the predicted and measured values. In the future, this method could be expanded to a variety of new samples and exciting drug prospects.
