Effect of iontophoresis on dacarbazine cutaneous delivery for melanoma topical treatment
Dacarbazine (DTIC) is the drug of choice for melanoma treatment, but its systemic administration is related to several adverse effects. Here, DTIC topical delivery stimulated by iontophoresis is proposed to overcome such drawbacks. Hence, this work analyzed the impact of anodal iontophoresis on DTIC cutaneous delivery to provide an innovative topical alternative for melanoma treatment. The electrical stability of the drug was evaluated prior to the iontophoretic experiments, which demonstrated the need to add an antioxidant to the drug formulation. DTIC cutaneous permeation was evaluated in vitro for 6 h using three current densities (0.10, 0.25, and 0.50 mA/cm2). In addition, the effect of DTIC against skin cancer cells (MeWo and WM164) was investigated for 72 h of exposure to the drug. Iontophoresis stimulated skin drug permeation compared to the passive control. However, the antioxidant presence reduced DTIC permeation under the lower currents of 0.10 and 0.25 mA/cm2, which was compensated by increasing the current density to 0.50 mA/cm2. At 0.50 mA/cm2, iontophoresis enhanced topical cutaneous drug permeation 7-fold (p < 0.05) compared to the passive control. DTIC showed a concentration-dependent antiproliferative effect on melanoma cell lines. Thus, iontophoresis intensifies DTIC skin penetration in concentrations that can reduce cell viability and induce cell death. In conclusion, DTIC cutaneous delivery mediated by iontophoresis is a promising approach for treating melanomas and other skin tumors.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Pharmaceutics is the third most cited journal in the "Pharmacy & Pharmacology" category out of 366 journals, being the true home for pharmaceutical scientists concerned with the physical, chemical and biological properties of devices and delivery systems for drugs, vaccines and biologicals, including their design, manufacture and evaluation. This includes evaluation of the properties of drugs, excipients such as surfactants and polymers and novel materials. The journal has special sections on pharmaceutical nanotechnology and personalized medicines, and publishes research papers, reviews, commentaries and letters to the editor as well as special issues.
