Improved Bioavailability of Curcumin: UniSA and 7News

Background

Prof Garg is a pharmacist and completed PhD from National Institute of Immunology, India. He joined the Program for Topical Prevention of Conception and Disease (TOPCAD) Rush University, Chicago (1995-1998) the USA, developing novel microbicides compounds and formulations. A number of his patented formulations have reached clinical stages and market in USA, India, New Zealand, UK, and Australia, e.g. Acidform, an acid-buffering formulation (USA Patent 6706276) has been approved by US FDA as a non-hormonal contraceptive (Phexxi) and is now available in the USA market. During the tenure with the University of Auckland, New Zealand (2003-2011), he established AnQual Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) compliant analytical laboratory. Acting as Deputy Head of the Auckland Pharmacy School, he played a critical role in establishing research and post-graduate program.

Research Focus

Prof Garg's team at PIDG is focusing on novel anticancer drug delivery systems, nanotechnology, antibacterial compounds and formulations for superbugs, wound healing, and veterinary formulations. He continues to work on cross-disciplinary projects that benefit patients directly.

Cancer Drug Targeting: His team is exploring both local as well as systemic delivery approaches. PhD Scholars Paris and Arafat are developing oesophageal and colonic stents as the vehicles for delivering single and the combination of anticancer drugs to control GI tumour growth, manage obstructions and alleviate dysphagia while minimizing systemic side effects. To achieve site-specific targeting, Ruixui and Sauha are using 3D printing for localized targetting of anticancer drugs. Candace is exploiting the properties of functionalized nano-silica materials to actively deliver anticancer agents to breast tumours.
Infections: Prof Garg has a strong track record of working with the development of novel antimicrobial compounds and formulations for human and veterinary applications. In highly successful partnership with Prof Darren Trott from the Australian Centre for Antimicrobial Resistance Ecology (ACARE) the University of Adelaide, Prof Adam McCluskey (University of Newcastle), Dr Stephen Page (Luoda Pharma and Neoculi Ltd), Dr Sam Abraham (Murdoch University) and alongside others, he is leading the preclinical development of new drug candidates and formulations active against resistant pathogens. Recent patents (US9775818 and US 9539223) on methods for treating bacterial infections cover the output from these efforts. In collaboration with Prof Allison Cowin and Prof Krasi Vasilev (Future Industries Institute), PhD students Pivian, Hanif and Fatima are assessing the role of pH in wound healing and developing new therapeutics for wound repair using nano-technological approaches.
Veterinary Delivery Systems: Working on collaborative and sponsored projects with several companies, his team is rapidly developing expertise in veterinary delivery systems for cattle, horses, pigs, cats, dogs, and fish. An innovative injectable IM formulation of highly unstable drug Omeprazole is revolutionizing the treatment of equine gastric ulcer. The preparation is in the process of registration with the European agencies. Formulations for antimicrobial compounds have gone through clinical evaluation in mastitis in cows. The application of lessons learned from human pharmaceuticals to veterinary preparations is helping in finding innovative ways of delivering drugs to animals in swine farms and aquaculture, not only improving the health and well-being of the animals but the safety and quality of products for human consumption.
Other Patient-centric Projects: He continues to work on projects that benefit patients directly and are at the crossroads of pharmacy practice and science, e.g. extemporaneous compounding and analysis of drugs in human milk.

Research Outputs and Awards

With the research team, Prof Garg has published 212 peer-reviewed papers, 44 patents, 24 book chapters, edited four books, and successfully completed technology transfers for twelve products, leading to h index of 52 (Google Scholar). He has supervised 216 research scholars at all levels, including 10 current PhD students

In 2015, Prof Garg was honoured with the Australasian Pharmaceutical Science Association (APSA) Medal. He was a finalist for the Research Impact Awards 2018 at UniSA. Some other awards that he has received include President's Medal from South Australian Indian Medical Association (SAIMA), Butland Award for Excellence in Research Supervision, Young Pharmacy Teacher of the Year, and Fellowship of the Indian Pharmaceutical Association.

Collaborations

Prof Garg collaborates with several human and animal pharmaceutical, biotechnological, nutrition, and complementary medicine companies through private and partnership grants. His research has been supported by Govt. agencies, Foundations and Pharmaceutical companies (e.g. Australian Research Council (ARC), National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC), Tertiary Education Commission (TEC) New Zealand, Contraception Research and Development Program (CONRAD), USA; International Partnership for Microbicides (IPM), USA, and many others. He regularly reviews grants from ARC, NHMRC, and for National agencies from Brazil, UK, Singapore, Ireland, South Africa, and Hongkong.

He is passionate about International engagement and acts as Co-Director of the China-Australia Centre for Health Science Research (CACHSR), in collaboration with Shandong University, China. Prof Garg has ongoing adjunct appointments with the International Medical University (IMU), Malaysia and Manipal Academy of Higher Education (MAHE) India. His research collaborations extend to USA, Canada, Brazil, India, Malaysia, and China, and he is very keen to develop new links, especially research staff and students exchanges for the short or long term.

Research Facilities

Prof Garg's laboratories are located in the new 247 million AUD purpose-built Health Innovation Building in city west Adelaide. The labs are well equipped with small and pilot-scale pharmaceutical development, analysis and characterization equipment for various dosage forms, including tabletting, extruder/spheronizer, encapsulation, spray and fluidized bed coating, ICH compliant stability chambers, dissolution, Franz diffusion cells, texture analyser, HPLCs with PDA, fluorescence, RI and ELSD detectors, LC-MS, NMR, particle sizing etc.
