Oral and intravenous administration of tamoxifen base and tamoxifen citrate formulated with hydroxybutenyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HBenBCD) to Sprague-Dawley rats significantly increased the oral bioavailability of tamoxifen relative to that of parent drug (no HBenBCD). When formulated with HBenBCD, the

✦ Synopsis
The solubility and dissolution of tamoxifen base and tamoxifen citrate with and without hydroxybutenyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HBenBCD) in aqueous and organic media were examined. The solubility of tamoxifen was greatly enhanced by complexation with HBenBCD; pH of the medium, and choice of buffer significantly impacted the amount of drug that could be solubilized. Different tamoxifen:HBenBCD formulations were prepared, including liquid fill capsule formulations, and their dissolution profiles were obtained. These dissolution studies demonstrated that enhanced solubilization of tamoxifen with HBenBCD was effective across a wide variety of formulation options. By complexation of tamoxifen base with HBenBCD, it was possible to obtain solubility and dissolution profiles for tamoxifen base that were essentially identical to that of tamoxifen citrate.

Three different techniques were applied to investigate aggregation of drug/ cyclodextrin complexes, that is, drug permeation through semi-permeable membranes, determination of changes in the value of activity coefficients of drug/cyclodextrin complex solutions and transmission electron microscopy (T
Phase-solubility diagrams are frequently used to calculate stoichiometry of drug/cyclodextrin complexes. Linear diagrams (A(L)-type systems) are thought to indicate that the complexes are first order with respect to cyclodextrin and first or higher order with respect to the drug. Positive deviation
