Definitions
- This invention relates to a process for the preparation of a solid pharmaceutical dosage form and solid pharmaceutical dosage forms produced by this process.
- solid pharmaceutical dosage forms are manufactured by processes which involve the steps of solidifying, for instance by freezing, a mixture of the active ingredient and a carrier in a solvent and subsequently removing the solvent from the solidified mixture by sublimation or some other means.
- active ingredients are susceptible to sublimation during such manufacturing processes resulting in a loss of potency in the final product.
- active ingredients which have been utilised in such manufacturing processes tend to adopt an amorphous structure which is chemically less stable than the crystalline form and this can contribute to a further loss of potency during manufacture and storage of the dosage form. Accordingly it is desirable to find a method of stabilising such susceptible active ingredients during such manufacturing processes.
- a process for the preparation of a solid pharmaceutical dosage form comprising a carrier and, as active ingredient, a compound which is susceptible to sublimation during the preparation process, which process includes the steps of solidifying a mixture of the compound and carrier in a solvent and subsequently removing the solvent from the solidified mixture, characterised in that a pH modifier is added to the mixture prior to solidification.
- the solid pharmaceutical dosage form is a solid, fast-dispersing dosage form.
- Such fast-dispersing dosage forms typically disintegrate within 1 to 10 seconds of being placed in the oral cavity and many different examples of such dosage forms are already known.
- U.S. Patent No. 5120549 discloses a fast- dispersing matrix system which is prepared by first solidifying a matrix-forming system dispersed in a first solvent and subsequently contacting the solidified matrix with a second solvent that is substantially miscible with the first solvent at a temperature lower than the solidification point of the first solvent, the matrix- forming elements and active ingredient being substantially insoluble in the second solvent, whereby the first solvent is substantially removed resulting in a fast-dispersing matrix.
- U.S. Patent No. 5079018 discloses a fast-dispersing dosage form which comprises a porous skeletal structure of a water soluble, hydratable gel or foam forming material that has been hydrated with water, rigidified in the hydrated state with a rigidifying agent and dehydrated with a liquid organic solvent at a temperature of about 0°C or below to leave spaces in place of hydration liquid.
- Published International Application No. W093/12769 (PCT/JP93/01631) describes fast-dispersing dosage forms of very low density formed by gelling, with agar, aqueous systems containing the matrix-forming elements and active ingredient, and then removing water by forced air or vacuum drying.
- U.S. Patent No. 5298261 discloses fast-dispersing dosage forms which comprise a partially collapsed matrix network that has been vacuum-dried above the collapse temperature of the matrix. However, the matrix is preferably at least partially dried below the equilibrium freezing point of the matrix.
- fast-dispersing dosage form therefore encompasses all the types of dosage form described in the preceding paragraphs.
- the fast-dispersing dosage form is of the type described in U.K. Patent No. 1548022, that is, a solid fast-dispersing dosage form comprising a network of the active ingredient and a water-soluble or water- dispersible carrier which is inert towards the active ingredient, the network having been obtained by subliming solvent from a composition in the solid state, that composition comprising the active ingredient and a solution of the carrier in a solvent.
- an active ingredient which is susceptible to sublimation during such manufacturing processes is selegiline ( (-) -N, ⁇ -dimethyl-N-2-propynylphenethylamine) which is useful in the treatment of Parkinson's disease and it is therefore particularly preferred that the active compound is selegiline or an acid-addition salt thereof, especially the hydrochloride.
- Another suitable active ingredient is nicotine.
- Fast-dispersing dosage forms of selegiline may be prepared by first freezing unit doses of an aqueous dispersion of the drug and then removing the water by sublimation or some other suitable means.
- the selegiline When in the solution phase, the selegiline will be in an equilibrium between the salt form and the free base.
- the free base of selegiline is a volatile oil which can evaporate during the manufacturing process or from the finished product. Accordingly, it is desirable in this case to shift the equilibrium towards the salt form by lowering the pH of the solution using a suitable pH modifier.
- Suitable pH modifiers for lowering the pH of a mixture are generally acids, especially organic acids.
- Preferred acids include citric acid, tartaric acid, phosphoric acid, hydrochloric acid and aleic acid. Of these, citric acid is particularly preferred.
- Suitable pH modifiers in this case are generally bases.
- Suitable inorganic bases include sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide and carbonates and bicarbonates of sodium and potassium and other suitable elements.
- Suitable organic bases include propanolamine, ethanolamine, methylamine, dimethyl formamide, dimethylacetamide, diethanolamine, diisopropanolamine and triethanolamine.
- the pH modifier will comprise 0.25 to 0.75% by weight, especially 0.4 to 0.6% by weight, of the initial mixture, that is, before removal of the solvent. If less than 0.25% by weight is present, the equilibrium may not be significantly affected. However, if more than 0.75% by weight is used, this can have a deleterious effect on the physical properties of the dosage form.
- the amorphous state of a compound is a high energy state. Accordingly, holding such a compound in the solidified state at a particular temperature may encourage the compound to transform to the chemically more stable, lower energy, crystalline state. It is therefore also preferred that the process of the invention comprises the further step of maintaining the solidified mixture within a specific temperature range for a specified period of time prior to removal of the solvent . The compound then retains the crystalline structure so produced throughout the remainder of the manufacturing process with the result that the finished product is chemically more stable than product which has not been treated in this way.
- a process for the preparation of a solid pharmaceutical dosage form comprising a carrier and, as active ingredient, a compound which is susceptible to sublimation during the preparation process, which process includes the steps of solidifying a mixture of the compound and carrier in a solvent and subsequently removing the solvent from the solidified mixture, characterised in that the solidified mixture is maintained within a specific temperature range for a specified period of time prior to removal of the solvent.
- the specific temperature range is from -15 to -25°C. It is also preferred that the specific period of time is not less than 1 hour, preferably at least 18 hours, more preferably, at least 24 hours and, especially, 24-30 hours.
- the composition will preferably contain, in addition to the active ingredient, matrix forming agents and secondary components.
- Matrix forming agents suitable for use in the present invention include materials derived from animal or vegetable proteins such as the gelatins, dextrins and soy, wheat and psyllium seed proteins; gums such as acacia, guar, agar, and xanthan; polysaccharides; alginates, carboxymethyl- celluloses; carrageenans; dextrans; pectins; synthetic polymers such as polyvinylpyrrolidone; and polypeptide/protein or polysaccharide complexes such as gelatin-acacia complexes.
- matrix forming agents suitable for use in the present invention include sugars such as mannitol, dextrose, lactose, and galactose; cyclic sugars such as cyclodextrin; inorganic salts such as sodium phosphate, sodium chloride and aluminium silicates; and amino acids having from 2 to 12 carbon atoms such as a glycine, L- alanine, L-aspartic acid, L-glutamic acid, L- hydroxyproline, L-isoleucine, L-leucine and L- phenylalanine.
- sugars such as mannitol, dextrose, lactose, and galactose
- cyclic sugars such as cyclodextrin
- inorganic salts such as sodium phosphate, sodium chloride and aluminium silicates
- amino acids having from 2 to 12 carbon atoms such as a glycine, L- alanine, L-aspartic acid, L-
- One or more matrix forming agents may be incorporated into the solution or suspension prior to solidification.
- the matrix forming agent may be present in addition to a surfactant or to the exclusion of a surfactant.
- the matrix forming agent may aid in maintaining the dispersion of any active ingredient within the solution or suspension. This is especially helpful in the case of active agents that are not sufficiently soluble in water and must, therefore, be suspended rather than dissolved.
- Suitable colouring agents include red, black and yellow iron oxides and FD & C dyes such as FD & C blue No. 2 and FD & C red No. 40 available from Ellis & Everard.
- Suitable flavouring agents include mint, raspberry, liquorice, orange, lemon, grapefruit, caramel, vanilla, cherry and grape flavours and combinations of these.
- Suitable pH modifiers include citric acid, tartaric acid, phosphoric acid, hydrochloric acid and maleic acid.
- Suitable sweeteners include aspartame, acesulfame K and thaumatin.
- Suitable taste-masking agents include sodium bicarbonate, ion-exchange resins, cyclodextrin inclusion compounds, adsorbates or microencapsulated actives.
- Gelatin (720g) and mannitol (540g) were dispersed in a portion of purified water (15.73kg) by mixing thoroughly in the bowl of a vacuum mixer. The remaining water (1.5 litres) was added under vacuum while mixing using an anchor stirrer. The mix was then heated to 40°C ⁇ 2°C and homogenised for ten minutes. The mix was cooled down to room temperature. When cooled, a 4500g portion of the mix was removed into a stainless steel vessel and glycine (360g) , aspartame (90g) , grapefruit flavour (54g) , Opatint yellow (54g) and citric acid (90g) were then added sequentially to this portion while homogenising using a bench top homogeniser.
- the remainder of the mix was transferred into a second stainless steel vessel. Selegiline hydrochloride (360g) was then added to the mix in the second vessel and the mix homogenised for ten minutes using a bench top mixer to dissolve the drug. Once dispersion of the colouring agent was complete, the portion of the mix removed to the first vessel was returned to the mixer bowl together with the homogenised mix from the second vessel. The combined mixes were then mixed for at least 20 minutes. The bulk dispersion was then homogenised to ensure that mixing was complete.
- Each blister was then coded with a batch number and over-wrapped in a preformed sachet by placing the blister in the sachet and sealing the open end of the sachet completely.
- Each sachet was then labelled with the product name, batch number, date of manufacture and suppliers name.
- Each unit dosage form had the following composition:
- a series of dosage forms were manufactured as described in Example 1 but the quantity of citric acid used was varied. The dosage forms were then stored at 40*C/80% relative humidity for up to 7 weeks and the quantity of selegiline hydrochloride in these dosage forms was assayed at regular intervals. The results are given in Table 1 below.
