2. INTRODUCTION
Targeted drug delivery system is a special form of drug delivery system where the event is
selectively targeted or delivered only to its site of actions or absorption and not to be the non-
targeted organ or tissues or cell.
Targeted Drug Delivery seeks to concentrate the medications in the tissues of interest while
reducing the relative concentrations of the medications in the remaining tissues.
This improves efficacy and reduce side effects.
3. BASIC COMPARISON WITH CONVENTIONAL THERAPY
Conventional approach
Infected /Tumor Cell Healthy cells
Targeted Organs /Cell Non Targeted Organ /Cell
Targeted Approach
Less efficacy
High side Effects
Improve efficacy
Reduce side effects
Drug Instability
Biopharmaceutical low absorption
Pharmacokinetics/ Pharmacodynamics
and short Half-Life
Large volume of distribution
Slow specificity
Low therapeutic index
Avoidance of hepatic first pass
metabolism
Dose is less
Selectively targeting to infections
cell
4. ADVANTAGES
Simplified drug administration protocol
Reduced toxicity
Lowering of dose
Avoidance of hepatic first pass metabolism
Enhancement of absorption of targeted molecules such as peptide and particulate
No peaks and valleys plasma concentration
Selective targeting to infections cells that compared to normal cells.
5. DISADVANTAGES
Rapid clearance of targeted systems.
Immune reactions against the intravenous administration carrier systems.
Insufficient localization of targeted systems into tumor cell.
Requires highly sophisticated Technology.
Requires the skill for manufacturing, storage and administration
Drug deposition at the target site may produce toxicity symptoms.
Difficult to maintain the stability of dosage form E.g: Resealed erythrocytes have to be stored at
4° C.
Difficult to predict /fix the dosage regiment
6. TYPE OF TARGATING
TYPES OF
TARGATING
Active
Targeting
Dual and
Double
Targeting
Passive
Targeting
Physical
Targeting
Ligand
Mediated
Targeting
Inverse
Targeting
7. Passive Targeting
The body's natural immune system is used.
Drug is targeted to systemic circulation.
Based on enhanced permeability and retention
(EPR)
As in tumor there are Leaky capillaries and
inflamed tissue so high permeability and retention
is achieved .
The particle surface is not altered.
Discontinuous
Endothelium
8. ACTIVE TARGETING
surface modifications is done.
coating of surface with either a
Bi-oadhesive ,
non-ionic surfactant
specific cell or
Tissue is antibody example monoclonal antibody
Albumin protein.
9. TYPE OF ACTIVE TARGATING
Second Order Targeting
(Cellular Targeting)
Third Order Targeting
(Intracellular Targeting)
First Order Targeting
(Organ Compartmentalization)
Type of
Active
Targeting
11. INVERSE TARGETING
In this type of targeting attempts are made to avoid passive uptake of colloidal
carrier by RES( Reticulo Endothelial Systems) and hence the process is referred
to as inverse targeting
To achieve inverse targeting, RES normal functions is suppressed by Pre injecting
large amount of blank colloidal carrier of macromolecules like dextran Sulphate.
This approach leads to saturations of RES, and separation of defence mechanism.
This type of targeting is a effective approach to target drug(s)to Non-RES organ
12. LIGAND MEDIATED TARGETING
Ligands are a career surface groups which direct carrier to prespecified site.
They help recognition and specificity upon drug carrier.
Achieved using specific mechanisms such as receptor dependent uptake of
natural LDL particle and synthetic lipid microemulsion of partially reconstituted
LDL particles coated with the apoproteins.
DRUG MOLECUEES
CARRIER CARRIER
TARGET TISSUES
13. PHYSICAL TARGETING
In this type of targeting some characteristics of
environment changes like
PH
Temperature,
Light intensity,
Electric field,
Ionic strength,
Stimuli like glucose concentrations
are used to localize the drug carrier
to predetermined site.
This approach was found
exceptional for tumor
targeting as well as
cytosolic delivery of
entrapped drug or genetic
material
14. DUAL TARGETING
In this targeting killing approach carrier molecule itself have their own
therapeutic activity and thus increase the therapeutic effect of drug.
For example, a carrier molecule having its own antiviral activity can be loaded
with antiviral drugs and the net synergistic effect of drug conjugate was
observed.
Drug Targeting Molecule
Increased Therapeutic
Effect
Both have therapeutic activity Synergistic effect
15. DOUBLE TARGETING
Temporal and spatial methodologies are combined to target a carrier system then targeting may
be called double targeting.
spatial placement relates to targeting drug to specific organ, tissue, cell or even subcellular
compartments (site).
Temporal delivery refers to controlling the rate of drug delivery to target site.
Control Release Drug Targeting
Example : PEG coated liposomes (for selective release of drug in low pH medium)
