evel A in vitro/in vivo correlation (IVIVC) of poly (ε-caprolactone) (PCL) microspheres for oral administration is challenging since in vitro PCL dissolution takes longer. The aims of this study were: 1) to develop three compositionally equivalent formulations of PCL microspheres with a different release rate of 6-methylcoumarin (6 MC), a drug candidate class IIc according to biopharmaceutical classification systems. 2) To develop a dissolution test for 6 MC-loaded PCL microspheres for oral administration. 3) To evaluate the influence of the PCL microspheres on the pharmacokinetic parameters of 6 MC and 4) to investigate a possible level A IVIVC of the 6 MC-loaded PCL microspheres. 6 MC-loaded PCL microspheres with different release rate were prepared and its physicochemical properties were evaluated as well as its release profiles. The pharmacokinetic parameters of the microspheres were investigated in Wistar rats. As results, it was possible to develop three compositionally equ
