Clinical Trials

Several clinical trials evaluate formulations containing SBE-β-CD across Phase I and Phase II studies, addressing conditions such as multiple myeloma, light chain amyloidosis, type II diabetes mellitus, post-operative nausea and vomiting, contrast-induced nephropathy, and pharmacokinetic profiles in healthy volunteers. Sponsored by academic centers and pharmaceutical entities, these trials encompass active, completed, and withdrawn recruitment statuses. Overall, these clinical evaluations highlight the widespread utility of SBE-β-CD as a solubilizing excipient in targeted drug delivery systems.

Compliance for Clinical Use

Mechanism and Biochemical Profile

SBE-β-CD non-covalently encapsulates hydrophobic drug molecules within its lipophilic central cavity, increasing aqueous solubility and preventing chemical degradation without altering the active agent's primary pharmacodynamics. By enhancing systemic bioavailability and dissolution kinetics, this modified cyclodextrin facilitates optimal therapeutic delivery in clinical applications including multiple myeloma, light chain amyloidosis, and contrast-induced nephropathy.

Appendix RUO and cGMP Quality Standards

Quality Dimension RUO (Research Use Only) cGMP (Current Good Manufacturing Practice)
Clinical Applicability Prohibited in human clinical trials or medical diagnostics. Mandatory for human clinical trials (Phase I–III) and therapies.
Regulatory Status Non-regulated grade; exempt from drug manufacturing laws. Legally enforced by health authorities (e.g., FDA, EMA, NMPA).
Facility Environment Unclassified analytical or research laboratories. Validated Cleanrooms (ISO Class 5–8) with continuous monitoring.
Quality Control Basic purity and activity testing. Rigorous safety release testing (Sterility, Endotoxin, Mycoplasma).
Process Validation Basic equipment calibration; no process validation required. Full qualification (IQ/OQ/PQ) and complete batch records.
Quality Assurance Vendor self-declared without required formal QMS. Mandatory QA/QC unit, Change Control, CAPA, and vendor audits.
Regulatory Impact High risk of IND rejection if used as a critical raw material. Required for IND/NDA filings, supported by Drug Master Files (DMF).
