Synopsis
Source of validity: Scientific
Rating (out of 5): 4
The use of delivery systems to support or treat autoimmune disorders is primarily justified by scientific validation. Drug delivery systems—such as nanoparticles, liposomes, hydrogels, and targeted delivery vehicles—are increasingly used to enhance the efficacy and reduce the side effects of therapies for autoimmune diseases including rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, and lupus. Scientific studies have demonstrated that these systems can improve the bioavailability of drugs, allow for targeted delivery to affected tissues or immune cells, and reduce systemic toxicity. For example, methotrexate-loaded liposomes have shown improved outcomes in rheumatoid arthritis models, while nanoparticle-based delivery of immunomodulators enables precise targeting of immune pathways involved in autoimmune pathology (source). Clinical trials are ongoing for several delivery system-based therapies, and some have reached clinical use, such as pegylated drugs that extend half-life and reduce immunogenicity. However, while there is robust preclinical and some clinical evidence, many delivery systems are still in the experimental phase, and long-term safety data are limited. Overall, the scientific basis for using delivery systems in autoimmune disorders is strong and rapidly evolving, with the potential to significantly improve the management of these complex diseases.
