Title: Bioadhesive drug delivery system with enhanced gastric retention
Inventor: JACOB JULES
IPC: A61K9/48
Filed: 2002-12-13
Abstract: Bioadhesive macrosphere delivery systems ("BDDS") having prolonged gastric retention time due to bioadhesion rather than physical density or size are described. In general, the macrospheres have diameters that are greater than 200 microns, more preferably greater than 500 microns. The bioadhesive macrospheres are released in the stomach where they reside in close proximit y to the gastric mucosa for a prolonged period of time. Increased residence of BDDS in the upper GI can lead to increased systemic absorption of drug in th e preferred site of systemic absorption, namely the upper GI tract (upper to m id- jejunum). The BDDS may be engineered either as a capsule with drug delivery controlled by a diffusion-limited membrane or degradable shell, or as a soli d matrix system with drug delivery controlled by a combination of diffusion an d polymer degradation kinetics.

Patent CA-2488675-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BECKER THOMAS E
IPC: C09K8/08
Filed: 2003-06-18
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de forage d'un trou à l'aide d'un fluide de forage présentant les avantages d'un fluide de faible viscosité en matière de pompabilité et ceux d'un fluide très visqueux en termes de capacité de suspension des déblais de forage. De plus, la viscosité de ce fluide peut être ajustée facilement et rapidement, de sorte que la rhéologie dudit fluide peut être adaptée en cours de forage à mesure que les conditions souterraines varient. Pour obtenir ces avantages, on ajoute à ce fluide un polymère réticulable de manière réversible et un activateur de réticulation encapsulé. Cet activateur de réticulation provoque la réticulation après l'introduction du fluide dans le trou de forage. Ensuite, on détruit cette réticulation à la surface du puits, de manière à réduire la viscosité du fluide et à permettre un retrait aisé des déblais de forage. Un activateur de réticulation est à nouveau ajouté au fluide et ce dernier est réintroduit dans le trou de forage. On peut ajuster la quantité d'activateur de réticulation et/ou de polymère réticulable dans le fluide pour modifier sa rhéologie afin d'adapter ce fluide aux variations des conditions du puits qui sont surveillées en temps réel.
