KEYWORDS: Dasatinib, Polymeric Nanoparticles, Nanoprecipitation, Sustained release, Natural polymers, Anti-cancer activity. I. INTRODUCTION NANOPARTICLES Nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems have emerged as a promising approach in modern pharmaceuticals research for enhancing the therapeutic performance of various bioactive compounds[1]. Solid polymeric nanoparticles are submicronic colloidal carriers, generally ranging in size from 10 to 1000nm, that are composed of biodegradable and biocompatible macromolecular materials[2]. These systems possess the ability to encapsulate, absorb or conjugate active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) through mechanisms such as dissolution, entrapment, surface adsorption, or encapsulation within the polymeric matrix[3]. The physicochemical characteristics of polymeric nanoparticles such as particle size, surface charge and morphology play a critical role in determining their drug release kinetics, stability and bioavailability[4]. Depending on the preparation method and polymer composition nanoparticles can be designed as nanospheres or nanocapsules, each offering distinct drug release and protection profiles[5]. These versatile carriers provide several therapeutic advantages, including controlled and sustained drug release, improved solubility of poorly water-soluble drugs, targeted delivery and reduced systemic toxicity[6] Nanoprecipitation Method Using this technique, the organic solvent will diffuse in the hydrophilic media with or without the assistance of a surfactant, and the polymer will precipitate out of it. Usually, a water-miscible solvent is used to dissolve the polymer, which causes the polymer to precipitate and form a nanoscale particle. This phase is now stirred into the hydrophilic media together with a stabiliser, or surfactant. The rapid diffusion process facilitates the deposition of polymer on the organic-aqueous solvent interface, a feature that results in the development of nanoscale structures. In the initial stage of this procedure, nanoparticulate production can be improved by phase separation is carried out using a solvent system that is fully miscible. Using this method, nanocapsules might Development and Characterization of Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors Loaded Polymeric Nanoparticles for The AntiCancer Activity IJMRA, Volume 08 Issue 10 October 2025 www.ijmra.in Page 5831 also be created by adding a little amount of non-toxic oil to the organic phase. This method can only be applied to water miscible solvents where there is sufficient diffusion rate to cause spontaneous emulsification7. Leukemia Leukaemia is a type of cancer that originates in the blood-forming tissues of the body, including the bone marrow and lymphatic system. It exists in multiple forms, with certain types more prevalent in children, while others are primarily seen in adults. This malignancy typically targets white blood cells, which play a crucial role in the immune response. Under normal conditions, white blood cells grow and divide in a controlled manner, aligning with the body’s physiological needs. However, the bone marrow of leukaemia patients creates aberrant white blood cells that are defective in their usual function8. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) TKIs are useful for the focused therapy of a number of cancers. The first medication to be used in clinical oncology was imatinib; medications like gefitinib, erlotinib, sorafenib, sunitinib, and dasatinib came after it. A powerful small-molecule, secondgeneration BCR-ABL multitarget kinase inhibitor is dasatinib. Except for those with the T315I mutation, dasatinib can impede the growth and kinase activity of BCR-ABL mutant and wild-type cell lines that are resistant to imatinib. In vivo Research has indicated that dasatinib exhibits 325 times greater potency against unmutated BCR-ABL compared to imatinib, and 16 times greater potency versus nilotinib, another BCR-ABL kinase inhibitor. Dasatinib is a selective inhibitor of tyrosine kinase receptors, primarily used in the treatment of chronic myelogenous leukaemia (CML) in patients harboring the Philadelphia chromosome fusion. The first second-generation TKI to be released in 2006 was dasatinib.38In order to approach sustained release action, dasatinib is consequently chosen as the ideal choice for the creation of polymeric nanoparticles by the Nanoprecipitation process using biodegradable polymers such as gum rosin, gum Arabic, and locust bean gum9. MATERIALS & METHODS Dasatinib(Gift sample from Shilpa Medicare limited, Bangalore), Poloxamer 188(Sigma Aldrich), Mannitol(S D Fine-Chem Limited, Mumbai), Gum rosin(S D Fine-Chem Limited, Mumbai), Locus bean gum(S D Fine-Chem Limited, Mumbai), Gum Arabic(Merck Life Science India Pvt. Ltd), Acetone(SDFCL, Mumbai), Methanol(SDFCL, Mumbai), Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) (Sigma Aldrich), Dicholoro methane(Sigma Aldrich), Dimethyl formamide(Sigma Aldrich), PREFORMULATION STUDIES. Description The dasatinib sample's physical characteristics, including its colour, odour, and powder texture, were assessed. Determination of solubility The solubility of the pure dasatinib medication was assessed using a variety of solvents, including water, methanol, and ethanol.1011 Determination of λ max A 7.4 pH phosphate buffer was used to make a solution of dasatinib containing conc. 10µg/ml, and a Shimadzu (UV-1601) Spectrophotometer was used to take the UV spectrum. The 200–400 nm range was used to scan the solution12-13. Conformation of Dasatinib drug by using FT-IR A small amount of dasatinib was taken and subjected to infrared spectra in Shimadzu kept at an ambient temperature of 25.0±0.5oC. The spectra were recorded by placing the sample carefully and scanning the sample in region of 4000-400cm-1 to determine various functional groups. The obtained IR spectrum of dasatinib was recorded14.

To create solution II, Poloxamer 188 was dissolved in distilled water simultaneously. Solution I was incorporated to Solution II little by bit. The mixture was then subjected to homogenization at 15,000 rpm for a duration of 10 minutes. For five minutes, the dispersion was sonicated (15 cycles with a 30second break). To remove the methanol from each formulation, it was magnetically agitated at 100rpm for six hours. The mixture was then centrifuged at -20°C for 20 to 30 minutes, discarding the Surprenant liquid to produce pellets. The pellet was pre-frozen at the pre-glycolic route at -40°C after being redispersed in a cryoprotectant solution containing 0.5% mannitol. It was lyophilized at -40°C for 24 hours and -80°C for 4 hours (primary and secondary drying). To prevent moisture, the produced spongy nanoparticle was kept in an airtight container15,16,17. CHARACTERIZATION Solubility studies Examination of polymeric nanoparticles' solubility. A solubility test was conducted on the produced polymeric nanoparticle using distilled water, methanol, ethanol, and DMF, in accordance with Dasatinib profile. 10ml of solvent were used to dissolve 1 mg of the corresponding sample, which was then sonicated for two minutes10-11. Drug content (DC) 10 mg of Dasatinib containing nanoparticle was equivalently weighed and The sample was dissolved in phosphate buffer at pH 7.4, followed by continuous stirring. Subsequently, the solution underwent sonication for 10 minutes and was then diluted to fall within the appropriate Beer’s law concentration range. Absorbances were observed at 323 nm by using UV spectrophotometer18. Drug entrapment efficiency: After preparing 80 millilitres of 7.4 pH buffer, nanoparticles equivalent to 5 milligrams of dasatinib were introduced. The container was sealed with aluminum foil and left undisturbed overnight. stirred and warmed for up to fifteen minutes at 40°C. I added the remaining 20 millilitres of buffer. Additional aliquots were made in accordance with Beer's range, and spectrophotometric absorbance measurements were made at 323 nm19. Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy (FT – IR) analysis FT-IR analysis was performed on the purified medication and the nanoparticles that were produced by mixing with potassium bromide (KBr) following a baseline correction with dried potassium bromide to verify compatibility. Pellets were compressed to a pressure of roughly 5 x 106 Pa in an evacuated die to create transparent, clear discs that had a diameter of 2 cm and a thickness of 0.2 cm. At room temperature, spectra from 4000 cm-1 to 400 cm-1 were recorded using an integrated Fourier transform spectrometer (Bruker, USA)20. Particle size, PDI and Zeta potential Using DLS for size analysis and a combination of LDV The mean particle size, polydispersity index (PDI), and zeta potential of the nanoparticles obtained from both preparation methods were measured using a particle size analyzer (Nano ZS, Malvern Instruments, UK) equipped with Phase Analysis Light Scattering (PALS) technology. These two values provide PDI21. Transmission electron microscopic studies (TEM) The PNP from GR2 was subjected to high-resolution transmission electron microscopy using a JEOL JEM 2010F UHR running at 200 kV. After that, the suspension of nanoparticles in polyol was put on the transmission electron microscope grid's amorphous carbon membrane and let to evaporate at room temperature. To remove the majority of the organic compounds, the grid underwent another heat treatment at 150 °C while under an extremely high vacuum. This treatment significantly increased high-resolution photos without changing the crystallinity of the particles. Using the SAISAM and TAMI applications, along with a digital camera (Microvision Instruments), we analyzed the TEM images to determine the particle size.22 Scanning Electron microscopic studies (SEM) After sputtering a thin layer of gold over the produced nanoparticles from formulation, the microstructure was examined using an EDAX equipment (Jeol 6390LA/OXFORD XMX N) coupled to a scanning microscope operating at a 20 kV acceleration voltage23. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) Using a heating rate of 10 K/min from 20°C to 300°C in the temperature range of 25ml/min under nitrogen flow, DSC thermograms of pure drugs and nanoparticles were recorded for 5 -15 mg of samples. Prior to sealing, a perforated lid was placed on each aluminum crucible containing the sample. The reference was an aluminium crucible empty.

For two hours, the study was conducted in a 1.2 pH buffer, and from the conclusion, it was conducted in a 7.4 pH buffer solution. After taking 10 mg of dasatinib equivalent PNP, 10 ml of methanol was used to dissolve it. This suspension/solution was dialyzed against a 1.2 pH buffer for two hours in a diffusion setup using gelatin paper as the equilibrium membrane. A 2millilitre sample was taken out at predetermined intervals, and the absorbance at 323 nm was measured. Dialysed against a 7.4 pH buffer after two hours, 2 millilitres of material were taken out, and the absorbance was measured at 323 nm24. Anti-cancer activity principle It is now commonly acknowledged that tetrazolium salt reduction is a trustworthy method for assessing cell proliferation. Metabolically active cells reduce the yellow tetrazolium MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazolyl2)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide) to produce reducing equivalents like NADH and NADPH, partially due to the action of dehydrogenase enzymes. Using spectrophotometric techniques, the resultant intracellular purple formazan may be solubilised and measured. The assay evaluates both the proliferation rate of cells and the reduction in cell viability induced by metabolic activities leading to necrosis or apoptosis Procedure for Determining Cell Cytotoxicity: A 96-well flat-bottom microplate was used to seed the cells, and they were kept there for the entire night at 37˚C, 95% humidity, and 5% CO2. Various concentrations of pure drug and DST PNPS (100, 50, 25, 12.5, 6.25, 3.125µg/ml) were administered. Another 48 hours were spent incubating the cells. Following two PBS washes, each well contained 20µL of the 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]- 2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) staining solution. The plate was then incubated at 37˚C. Following a 4-hour period, 100µL of DMSO was introduced into each well to dissolve the formazan crystals, and the absorbance was measured using a microplate reader at 570 nm. Formula: Surviving cells % = Mean OD of test compound / Mean OD of negative control ×100 Using graph pad prism version 5.1, we calculated the IC50 values of Dasatinib and F1 Apoptosis by Flow cytometer.

Comparative pharmacokinetic drug release study Using the models developed by Koresmeyer and Poppa and Higuchi, a comparative drug release study is conducted. Higuchi's Model: Diffusion-based drug release from matrix devices is explained as follows The classical diffusion of Higuchi equation: Q = [DЄ /ɩ (2A – ЄCs) Cst] ½ where, Q = Amount of drug release at time ‘t’ D = Diffusion coefficient of the drug in the matrix. A = Total amount of drug in unit volume of matrix. Cs = Solubility of drug in the matrix. Є = Porosity of the matrix. ɩ= Tortuosity. T = Time (hrs at which q amount of drug is released). Above equation can be simplified as if we assume that ‘D’, ‘Cs’ and ‘A’ are constant. Then equation becomes Q = kt1/2 The drug was released via diffusion mechanism when the data is analysed using equation, i.e. cumulative drug release versus square root of time, which produces a straight line. The incline equals 'K'. The aforementioned equation is verified using in vitro release data in an Excel sheet model. or the KinetDS3 program was employed. Koresmeyer Equation / Peppas Model The release data was also fitted to the well-known exponential equation, which is frequently used to characterise the drug release behaviour from polymeric systems, in order to investigate the mechanism of drug release from the liposomal solution26. Stability studies. Development and Characterization of Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors Loaded Polymeric Nanoparticles for The AntiCancer Activity IJMRA, Volume 08 Issue 10 October 2025 www.ijmra.in Page 5834 To calculate the amount of medication lost from the polymeric nanoparticles, stability experiments were conducted. For the optimized formulations produced by each approach, a stability analysis was conducted. The formulations were separated into three sets of samples and kept at room temperature (29˚C) in a refrigerator at 2℃. The results of the in vitro drug release research and entrapment efficiency after storage at room temperature and 2°C were used to predict the stability of the formulations. Samples were estimated every month for a duration of three months27.

This was due to the nanoform which effectively taken up by the MDA MB 231 & K562 cells as compare to pure drug. As results exhibited in table no 06 & 07. Stability studies Accelerated stability studies were carried out by storing the nanoparticle suspension or solution at room temperature and under refrigerated conditions (2–8 °C) for a period of three months. The findings are shown in Table 15. In the meantime, the in vitro drug release was found to be in the range of 59.99% to 76.23% at room temperature and 60.23% to 73.42% at 2°C, respectively. The percentage drug entrapment efficiency (DEE) ranged from 39.2% to 83% at room temperature, and from 39.5% to 82.33% under refrigerated conditions (2 °C). CONCLUSION • The dasatinib-loaded polymeric nanoparticle was effectively created with the use of Arabic gum, gum rosin, and locust bean gum as polymers in the Nanoprecipitation process. • The prepared polymeric nanoparticles were characterized by various parameters and obtained significant results. • To observe any potential interactions between the chosen medicine and polymer, FT-IR experiments were conducted. The results of the FT-IR analysis show that there was no drug-polymer interaction. • All formulations showed high drug entrapment efficiency. Among the different formulation, NP4 and NP5 formulations were showed maximum drug entrapment efficiency. • Particle size of prepared polymeric nanoparticles obtained in the range between 220.2 nm to 604.1 nm. Thus, particle sizes obtained were according to drug polymer ratio. NP4 has showed a least particle size. • Surface morphology of prepared polymeric nanoparticle obtained from SEM & TEM has showed a smooth with irregular shape. • It was discovered by DSC characterization that nanoparticles are naturally amorphous. • The results of an in vitro drug release research demonstrated that the produced polymeric nanoparticles continued to release drugs for 48 hours. The release kinetics for different formulations has showed both peppas model and zero order kinetics, and thus it concludes that the mechanism was non-Fickian diffusion. • From the results of in vivo Cell-line studies, Optimized NP4 formulation was effectively taken up by MDA MB 231 cell line and K562 cell line as compared to pure drug Dasatinib hence these was significant death of cells. • Stability studies showed that there were no much changes in the parameters within 3 months.
