Definitions
- the present invention relates to the preparation of solutions containing imidazole derivatives and to the use of those solutions in the preparation of microspheres.
- the imidazole derivative containing microspheres are effective in treating fungal infections, particularly in mammals.
- the microspheres facilitate the oral administration of relatively large amounts of the imidazole derivative, with increased bioavailability.
- the imidazole derivative family of compounds is particularly effective against a broad range of fungal infections such as those caused by Trichophyton rubrum, Tricophyton mentagrophytes, Epidermophyton floccsum, and Candida albicans, but these compounds are either partially water soluble or insoluble in water.
- the solubility of itraconazole in water is less than 0.00001 g/ml.
- imidazole derivatives are typically insoluble in water, they are difficult to administer orally. Consequently although imidazole derivatives are frequently prescribed for the treatment of fungal infections, they have been available only in topical preparations or in oral formulations with limited bioavailability.
- U.S. Patent No. 3,717,655 discloses imidazole derivatives which have antifungal and antibacterial activity. These compounds are almost insoluble in aqueous solutions such as water and are very poorly soluble in polar solvents such as ethanol.

- the active agents of the present invention are imidazole derivatives having the formula:
- R, R 1 and R 2 are independently hydrogen or lower alkyl; R 3 is hydrogen, methyl or ethyl; R 4 is hydrogen or methyl
- Ar is phenyl, monohalophenyl, dihalophenyl, trihalophenyl, mono (lower alkyDphenyl, didower alkyDphenyl, lower alkoxyphenyl, or halothienyl;
- Ar 1 is phenyl, monohalophenyl, dihalophenyl, trihalophenyl, monodower alkyDphenyl, didower alkyDphenyl, lower alkoxyphenyl, or cyanophenyl; and n is 1 or 2.
- Itraconazole is a synthetic triazole imidazole derivative 1 :1 :1 : 1 racemic mixture of four diastereomers (two enantiomeric pairs), each possessing three chiral centers (Physicians Desk Reference 48th Ed., pg. 1097, 1994).
- Imidazole Derivative Solutions The solutions prepared in accordance with the present invention allow for the solubilization of imidazole derivatives at concentrations suitable for processing into orally administrable forms having acceptable bioavailability.

- Preferred acid solvents for the imidazole derivatives are acetic acid and formic acid.
- the solvent itself is an aqueous solution of the acid.
- the volume:volume ratio of the acid to the total volume of the solvent is 3:7 or greater. It has been found that by using this solvent system up to a 50% solution of imidazole derivative can be prepared.
- Dissolution is achieved by simple mixing, with heating if necessary.
- the more concentrated the acid in the solvent the greater the amount of active agent that can be incorporated into the solution.
- the active agent can first be dissolved in a more concentrated acid solution, and the resultant solution then slowly diluted further, preferably with water.
- the solution comprises from about 3 to about 40 percent by weight of solute and from about 60 to about 97 parts by weight of solvent based upon 100 parts by weight of solution.
- the solvent itself preferably comprises from about 30 to about
- the solvent comprises from about 40 to about 50 parts by volume of acid and from about 60 to about 50 parts by volume of water based upon 100 parts by volume of solvent.
- Microspheres are useful in the delivery of active agents because they protect an active agent cargo until it is delivered to a target. Microspheres are particularly useful in the oral delivery of biologically active agents such as, for example, pharmaceutically active agents.
- Copending Application entitled “Method of Solubilizing and Encapsulating Itraconazole”, filed ontinct discloses methods and apparatus for forming microspheres.

- the encapsulated material or cargo can be either in solution or a solid, with the carrier forming a shell around the cargo.
- Carriers suitable for use in the present invention are microsphere forming carriers. These carriers include, without limitation, proteinoids; ac ⁇ lated amino acids, poly amino acids or salts thereof; sulfonated amino acids, poly amino acids or salts thereof; proteins or salts thereof, enteric coating materials; or any combination thereof.
- Amino acids are the basic materials used to prepare many of the carriers useful in the present invention. Amino acids include any carboxylic acid having at least one free amino group and include naturally occurring and synthetic amino acids.
- the preferred amino acids for use in the present invention are oc -amino acids and, most preferably, are naturally occurring cc- amino acids. Many amino acids and amino acid esters are readily available from a number of commercial sources such as Aldrich Chemical Co.
- amino acids suitable for use in the present invention are generally of the formula
- R 5 is hydrogen, C r C 4 alkyl, or C 2 -C 4 alkenyl
- R 6 is C r C 24 alkyl, C 2 -C 24 alkenyl, C 3 -C 10 cycloalkyl, C 3 -C 10 cycloalkenyl, phenyl, naphthyl, (C

- Poly amino acids are either peptides or two or more amino acids linked by a bond formed by other groups which can be linked, e.g., an ester or an anhydride linkage. Special mention is made of non-naturally occurring poly amino acids and particularly non-naturally occurring hetero-poly amino acids, i.e. of mixed amino acids.
- Peptides are two or more amino acids joined by a peptide bond. Peptides can vary in length from di-peptides with two amino acids to polypeptides with several hundred amino acids. See, Walker, Chambers Biological Dictionary, Cambridge, England: Chambers Cambridge, 1989, page 215. Special mention is made of non-naturally occurring peptides and particularly non-naturally occurring peptides of mixed amino acids. Special mention is also made of di-peptides tri-peptides, tetra-peptides, and penta- peptides, and particularly, the preferred peptides are di-peptides and tri-peptides. Peptides can be homo- or hetero- peptides and can include natural amino acids, synthetic amino acids, or any combination thereof.
- Proteinoids are artificial polymers of amino acids. Proteinoids preferably are prepared from mixtures of amino acids. Preferred proteinoids are condensation polymers, and most preferably, are thermal condensation polymers. These polymers may be directed or random polymers. Proteinoids can be linear, branched, or cyclical, and certain proteinoids can be units of other linear, branched, or cyclical proteinoids. Special mention is made of diketopiperazines. Diketopiperazines are six member ring compounds. The ring includes two nitrogen atoms and is substituted at two carbons with two oxygen atoms. Preferably, the carbonyl groups are at the 2 and 5 ring positions. These rings can be optionally, and most often are, further substituted.
- Diketopiperazine ring systems may be generated during thermal polymerization or condensation of amino acids or amino acid derivatives. (Gyore, J; Ecet M. Proceedings Fourth ICTA (Thermal Analysis) , 1974, 2, 387-394 (1974)). These six membered ring systems were presumably generated by intra-molecular cyclization of the dimer prior to further chain growth or directly from a linear peptide (Reddy, A.V., Int. J. Peptide Protein Res., 40, 472-476 (1992); Mazurov, A.A. et al., Int. J. Peptide Protein Res., 42, 14-19 (1993)).
- Diketopiperazines can also be formed by cyclodimerization of amino acid ester derivatives as described by Katchalski et al., J. Amer. Chem. Soc, 68, 879-880 (1946), by cyclization of dipeptide ester derivatives, or by thermal dehydration of amino acid derivatives and high boiling solvents as described by Kopple et al., J. Org. Chem., 33 (2), 862-864 (1968).
- Diketopiperazines typically are formed from ⁇ -amino acids.
- the ⁇ -amino acids of which the diketopiperazines are derived are glutamic acid, aspartic acid, tyrosine, phenylalanine, and optical isomers of any of the foregoing.
- Modified amino acids, poly amino acids, or peptides are either acylated or sulfonated and include amino acid amides and sulfonamides.

- aqueous acid solutions wherein the volume to volume ratio of acid to water is greater than about 3:7.
- Suitable aqueous acid solvents are as above, i.e. volatile organic acids, such as for example, aqueous acetic acid, aqueous formic acid, and the like.
- Microsphere formation occurs when the concentration of the acid in the carrier/active agent solution is decreased. As this solution is nebulized, the acid evaporates, decreasing the concentration of the acid in solution to less than 30% by volume. The carrier, then, will self assemble to form microspheres containing any optional active agent. The cargo must be stable in the concentrated acid for the time and conditions necessary to carry out the operation. Alternately, the carrier solution can be diluted, such as with water, whereby the acid concentration is decreased and the carrier precipitates to form microspheres. Preferably, the microspheres are prepared by spray drying.
- the microspheres can be pH adapted by using base or acid soluble coatings including, but not limited to, proteinoid coatings, enteric coatings, acylated amino acid coatings, and the like.
- any of the solutions above may optionally contain additives such as stabilizing additives.
- additives such as stabilizing additives.
- the presence of such additives promotes the stability and dispersability of the active agent in solution.
- the stabilizing additives may be employed at a concentration ranging between about 0.1 and 5% (w/v), preferably about 0.5% (w/v).
- Suitable, but non-limiting examples of stabilizing additives include buffer salts, gum acacia, gelatin, methyl cellulose, polyethylene glycol, and polylysine.
- the amount of active agent that may be incorporated in the microsphere is dependent upon a number of factors which include the concentration of active agent in the solution as well as the affinity of the active agent for the carrier.
- concentration of the active agent in the final formulation also will vary depending on the required amounts for any particular end use. When necessary, the exact concentration can be determined by, for example, reverse phase HPLC analysis.
- microspheres and, therefore, the solutions described above may also include one or more enzyme inhibitors.
- enzyme inhibitors include, but are not limited to, compounds such as actinonin or epiactinonin and derivatives thereof.
- microspheres are particularly useful for administering itraconazole derivatives to any animals, including but not limited to, birds and mammals, such as primates and particularly humans; and insects.
- These microsphere systems are particularly advantageous for delivering these active agents as the active agent would otherwise be destroyed or rendered less effective by conditions encountered before the microsphere reaches the active agent target zone (i.e., the area in which the active agent of the delivery composition are to be released) and within the body of the animal to which they are administered.
- active agent target zone i.e., the area in which the active agent of the delivery composition are to be released
- these microspheres can deliver relatively high amounts of the imidazole derivative and retain a high bioavailability.
- Example 1 Solubilization of Itraconazole Acetic acid solutions were prepared in water to 10%,
- Stable proteinoid microspheres containing itraconazole were formed. Analysis of typical microspheres using RP-HPLC demonstrated that they contained 14-21 % itraconazole by weight.
