Note: Horizontal axis IS NOT linear
Objective: We aimed to compare the absorption of an innovative phospholipids-sucrester matrix biodelivery vehicle-based (sucrosomial®) orodispersible Vit D3 preparation against a reference chewable tablet and soft gel capsule (SGC) Vit D3 formulations in Vit D-deficient healthy adults.

Methods: In study 1, 25 subjects were randomized to receive a weekly single dose of 200,000 IU of sucrosomial® Vit D3 (n = 12) or chewable tablet Vit D3 (n = 13) for 3 weeks.
In study 2, 20 subjects were randomized to receive a single dose of 200,000 IU every other week of sucrosomial® Vit D3 (n = 10) or SGC Vit D3 (n = 10) for 6 weeks. Circulatory 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 [25(OH)D] levels were reassessed after 2, 3, and 6 weeks in study 1 and after 4 and 6 weeks in study 2.

Results: In study 1, after 2 weeks, circulatory 25(OH)D levels increased significantly in both Vit D3 treatment groups (p < 0.0001) but improved markedly in the sucrosomial® Vit D3 group, with no further considerable change after 3 and 6 weeks in both groups. Overall, at all three follow-ups, sucrosomial® Vit D3 treatment achieved significantly higher and sustained 25(OH)D levels (p < 0.001). In study 2, after 4 weeks, both Vit D3 treatment groups showed significant improvement in circulatory 25(OH)D levels (p < 0.0001) but substantially higher in the sucrosomial® group with statistically significant differences between the two treatment groups (p = 0.02). At the 6-week follow-up, only subjects in the sucrosomial® Vit D3 group showed a further increase in circulatory 25(OH)D levels (p = 0.049), but no further significant changes in the levels of the SGC Vit D3 group (p = 0.062), showing a statistically significant difference between the two treatment groups (p = 0.002). The Vit D3 treatment was well tolerated by all participants, and no treatment-emergent effects or serious adverse events were reported.

Conclusion: Our results suggest that the sucrosomial® Vit D3 preparation absorbs efficiently in the GI system, achieving adequately higher and sustained circulatory Vit D levels in VDD, and thus can effectively contribute to the body protection against VDD-associated health conditions.
