Biodegradable bioadhesive nanoparticle incorporation of broad-spectrum organic sunscreen agents.

ABSTRACT: Conventional emulsion-based sunscreen formulations are limited by postapplication epicutaneous penetration that increases the risk of allergic dermatitis, cellular damage, and filter photodegradation upon ultraviolet radiation (UVR) exposure. Encapsulation of the UVB filter padimate O within bioadhesive biodegradable nanoparticles (BNPs) composed of poly(d,l-lactic acid)-hyperbranched polyglycerol was previously shown to enhance UVR protection while preventing skin absorption. Herein, we assess the capacity of BNP co-incorporation of avobenzone and octocrylene to provide broad-spectrum UVR protection. The ratio of UV filters within nanoparticles (NPs) was optimized for filter-filter stabilization upon UV irradiation and maximum drug loading. In vitro water-resistance test showed significant particle retention at 85% over 3 hr. In a pilot clinical study, protection against UVR-induced erythema of BNPs was found to be comparable to the FDA standard P2. Thus, sunscreen formulations utilizing BNP incorporation of a combination of organic filters may offer key safety and performance advantages.

Project description:IntroductionPolymorphic light eruption (PLE) is the most common idiopathic, acquired photodermatosis. The pathophysiology of PLE is not yet fully understood but seems to involve immunological mechanisms, UVA-induced oxidative stress, and the subsequent elicitation of a cellular stress response affecting keratinocyte gene expression and skin immune function. In the present study, a high broad-spectrum sunscreen medical device (MD), containing a very high protection complex of UVB and UVA filters and ectoin, was investigated for its ability to protect against UVA-induced PLE.MethodsThe study was carried out as a monocentric, double-blinded, randomized, untreated controlled design. The test MD was applied (2 mg/cm2) on one side of the chest according to a randomization list of 15 patients with a typical history of PLE, and the contralateral area remained untreated. After product application, the test areas were exposed daily to increasing doses of UVA radiation (from 40 to 60 J/cm2) until a PLE reaction was detected or for a maximum of five consecutive days. Evaluations of induced PLE included clinical scoring and chromametry for erythema and pigmentation.ResultsOverall, no positive PLE reaction was observed on the side of the chest treated by the test MD, whereas positive PLE reactions were triggered on the untreated side of 13 subjects. Subjective sensations were very rare on the MD-treated side but were numerous and more severe on the untreated side. Chromametry and clinical visual inspection indicated that the skin color was unchanged on the MD-protected side, whereas high increased values of erythema and pigmentation were observed on the untreated chest side.ConclusionThis MD sunscreen based on a complex of UVA-UVB filters and 1% of ectoin may be effective in preventing UVA-induced PLE. New studies comparing this MD sunscreen versus the same product without ectoin should be conducted.Clinicaltrialsgov identifier: NCT05320315 (retrospectively registered 09/17/2021).
