Oral administration is the preferred route of delivery for therapeutic molecules due to its convenience. However, most New Chemical Entities (NCE) exhibit physico-chemical properties limiting their absorption in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, with almost 70% of identified molecules facing solubility issues in aqueous GI fluids according to Pharmacircle data from March 2022. Lipid-based formulations (LBF) is an interesting approach to enhance oral bioavailability of poorly water-soluble (PWS) drugs, including small molecules and macromolecules such as peptides and proteins.
