Description

Composition pharmaceutique à résidence gastrique Pharmaceutical composition with gastric residence
La présente invention a pour objet des compositions pharmaceutiques à résidence gastrique comprenant un principe actif de la famille des benzamides.The present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions with gastric residence comprising an active principle of the family of benzamides.
Les benzamides sont des composés chimiques dont la structure comprend le motif suivant :Benzamides are chemical compounds whose structure includes the following motif:
Figure imgf000003_0001
Figure imgf000003_0001
Certains benzamides sont utiles comme principe actif de médicaments destinés au traitement, notamment, des troubles du système nerveux central. De tels benzamides peuvent consister en 1 ' amisulpride, le tiapride, le sulpiride, leurs sels, le cas échéant, leurs énantiomères et les sels de ces énantiomères, ainsi que certains de leurs dérivés.Certain benzamides are useful as an active ingredient in medicaments intended for the treatment, in particular, of disorders of the central nervous system. Such benzamides may consist of amisulpride, tiapride, sulpiride, their salts, if any, their enantiomers and the salts of these enantiomers, as well as some of their derivatives.
Ces benzamides peuvent être administrés par voie orale.These benzamides can be administered orally.
Toutefois la demanderesse a pu constater que l'administration par voie orale de ces benzamides pouvait conduire à une biodisponibilité faible et/ou irrégulière. On entend ici par le terme "biodisponibilité", la fraction du principe actif qui est absorbé depuis sa forme pharmaceutique et qui parvient dans le plasma.However, the Applicant has found that the oral administration of these benzamides could lead to low and / or irregular bioavailability. The term "bioavailability" is understood here to mean the fraction of the active principle which is absorbed from its pharmaceutical form and which reaches the plasma.
Une biodisponibilité faible ou irrégulière peut être le résultat de plusieurs facteurs parmi lesquels on peut citer : une faible solubilité ou une dissolution très lente du principe actif ou de la forme galénique qui le contient; l'instabilité du principe actif, soit sur toute la longueur du tractus gastro-intestinal , soit dans une de ses parties seulement; la dégradation enzy atique dans la muqueuse ou au niveau hépatique du principe actif ; l'absorption lente ou incomplète du principe actif en raison d'une diffusion passive lente à travers l'intestin ou, dans le cas d'un mécanisme actif, d'une saturation du système de transport. Il est connu que la biodisponibilité de certains principes actifs peut être modifiée au moyen d'une formulation à libération prolongée qui libère le principe actif sur toute la longueur du tractus gastro-intestinal.Low or irregular bioavailability can be the result of several factors, among which we can cite: low solubility or very slow dissolution of the active principle or of the dosage form which contains it; instability of the active ingredient, either over the entire length of the gastrointestinal tract, or in only one of its parts; the enzymatic degradation in the mucosa or in the liver of the active ingredient; slow or incomplete absorption of the active ingredient due to slow passive diffusion through the intestine or, in the case of an active mechanism, saturation of the transport system. It is known that the bioavailability of certain active ingredients can be modified by means of a sustained-release formulation which releases the active ingredient over the entire length of the gastrointestinal tract.
La demanderesse a toutefois pu établir qu'une telle formulation ne convenait pas aux composés de la famille des benzamides. En effet, la demanderesse a pu déterminer que les benzamides sont généralement mal absorbés au niveau colonique chez l'homme, mais, qu'en revanche, ils sont mieux absorbés dans l'intestin grêle. Pour certains de ces benzamides, l'absorption se fait quasi -exclusivement dans les parties hautes de l'intestin grêle, à savoir le jéjunum, le duodénum ou 1 ' ileum proximal .The Applicant has however been able to establish that such a formulation is not suitable for compounds of the family of benzamides. Indeed, the Applicant has been able to determine that benzamides are generally poorly absorbed at the colonic level in humans, but, on the other hand, they are better absorbed in the small intestine. For some of these benzamides, absorption takes place almost exclusively in the upper parts of the small intestine, namely the jejunum, the duodenum or the proximal ileum.
Poursuivant ses recherches, la demanderesse a alors envisagé d'améliorer la biodisponibilité des benzamides en les formulant sous la forme d'une composition pharmaceutique à résidence gastrique favorisant une absorption au niveau de l'intestin grêle, voire, plus spécifiquement, les parties hautes de l'intestin grêle.Continuing her research, the Applicant then considered improving the bioavailability of benzamides by formulating them in the form of a pharmaceutical composition with gastric residence promoting absorption in the small intestine, or even, more specifically, the upper parts of the small intestine.
L'invention consiste ainsi en une composition pharmaceutique à résidence gastrique, caractérisée en ce qu'elle comprend :The invention thus consists of a pharmaceutical composition with gastric residence, characterized in that it comprises:
(a) un principe actif consistant en un benzamide ou un sel de benzamide ,(a) an active principle consisting of a benzamide or a benzamide salt,
(b) un système générateur de dioxyde de carbone, et(b) a carbon dioxide generating system, and
(c) un moyen permettant la rétention partielle du dioxyde de carbone généré par ledit système générateur de dioxyde de carbone .(c) means allowing partial retention of the carbon dioxide generated by said carbon dioxide generating system.
La figure représente le profil de libération plasmatique, chez l'homme, du chlorhydrate de tiapride, ce profil étant obtenu avec une composition pharmaceutique selon l'invention.The figure represents the plasma release profile, in humans, of tiapride hydrochloride, this profile being obtained with a pharmaceutical composition according to the invention.
Lorsque le principe actif est un composé comprenant un ou plusieurs centres d'asymétrie, le terme "benzamide" au sens de la présente invention, et sauf indication contraire, couvre les différents énantiomères ou diastéréoisomères de ces composés, y compris leurs mélanges, en particulier leurs mélanges racémiques .When the active principle is a compound comprising one or more centers of asymmetry, the term "benzamide" within the meaning of the present invention, and unless otherwise indicated, covers the various enantiomers or diastereoisomers of these compounds, including their mixtures, in particular their racemic mixtures.
Une composition pharmaceutique à résidence gastrique est destinée à résider plus d'une heure dans l'estomac en vue d'une libération prolongée et/ou contrôlée du principe actif.A pharmaceutical composition with gastric residence is intended to reside for more than one hour in the stomach with a view to a prolonged and / or controlled release of the active principle.
Une composition pharmaceutique a résidence gastrique selon l'invention a pour avantage de pouvoir flotter a la surface des liquides contenus dans l'estomac, et ce, très rapidement après avoir été absorbée. Il a ainsi pu être constaté qu'une composition selon l'invention pouvait flotter moins de deux minutes après avoir été mis en contact avec un liquide aqueux.A pharmaceutical composition with gastric residence according to the invention has the advantage of being able to float on the surface of the liquids contained in the stomach, and this very quickly after having been absorbed. It has thus been found that a composition according to the invention can float for less than two minutes after being brought into contact with an aqueous liquid.
Il est très important que la flottaison intervienne le plus rapidement possible après absorption afin d'éviter à la composition pharmaceutique d'être chassée de l'estomac. En effet, on considère généralement que si la composition pharmaceutique à résidence gastrique ne flotte pas dans les trois minutes suivant l'absorption chez un sujet à jeun, la probabilité qu'elle soit évacuée hors de l'estomac devient inacceptable.It is very important that the flotation occurs as quickly as possible after absorption in order to prevent the pharmaceutical composition from being driven from the stomach. Indeed, it is generally considered that if the pharmaceutical composition with gastric residence does not float within three minutes of absorption in a fasted subject, the probability that it is evacuated from the stomach becomes unacceptable.
L'invention convient plus particulièrement aux principes actifs consistant en le sulpiride, 1 ' amisulpride, leurs sels, leurs énantiomères et les sels de ces énantiomères, ainsi qu'au tiapride, son oxyde et ses sels.The invention is more particularly suitable for the active principles consisting of sulpiride, 1 amisulpride, their salts, their enantiomers and the salts of these enantiomers, as well as tiapride, its oxide and its salts.
Le sulpiride ou 5- (aminosulfonyl) -N- [ (l-éthyl-2- pyrrolidinyl) méthyl] -2-méthoxybenzamide et son procédé de préparation, sont décrits dans le brevet spécial de médicament français N° 4879M , dont l'enseignement est intégralement incorporé dans la présente description.Sulpiride or 5- (aminosulfonyl) -N- [(1-ethyl-2-pyrrolidinyl) methyl] -2-methoxybenzamide and its preparation process, are described in the French special patent for medicament No. 4879M, the teaching of which is fully incorporated into this description.
Le sulpiride est un neuroleptique utile dans le traitement des psychoses aiguës et chroniques (i) à posologie déshinibitrice : psychoses où prédominent états de repli, apragmatisme, aboulie ou (ii) à posologie antiproductive : psychoses délirantes ou confusionnelles, schizophrénie .Sulpiride is a neuroleptic useful in the treatment of acute and chronic psychoses (i) with a dehinibitating dosage: psychoses where predominantly withdrawal states, apragmatism, abuli or (ii) with dosage antiproductive: delusional or confusing psychoses, schizophrenia.

Le système générateur de dioxyde de carbone a pour principale fonction de former du dioxyde de carbone sous forme de bulles. Ces bulles contribuent à amener rapidement, puis à maintenir la composition pharmaceutique de l'invention à la surface des liquides contenus dans l'estomac.The main function of the carbon dioxide generating system is to form carbon dioxide in the form of bubbles. These bubbles contribute to quickly bringing, then to maintaining the pharmaceutical composition of the invention on the surface of the liquids contained in the stomach.
Un système générateur de dioxyde de carbone convenant dans une composition pharmaceutique selon l'invention, comprend généralement au moins un agent générateur de dioxyde de carbone. L'agent générateur de dioxyde de carbone est habituellement un carbonate d'un métal alcalin ou alcalino- terreux, tel le carbonate de calcium, ou un bicarbonate d'un métal alcalin, de préférence le bicarbonate de sodium.A carbon dioxide generating system suitable in a pharmaceutical composition according to the invention generally comprises at least one carbon dioxide generating agent. The carbon dioxide generating agent is usually a carbonate of an alkali or alkaline earth metal, such as calcium carbonate, or a bicarbonate of an alkali metal, preferably sodium bicarbonate.
Un tel système générateur de dioxyde de carbone, constitué seulement d'un agent générateur de dioxyde de carbone, ne commence à former des bulles de dioxyde de carbone qu'après avoir été mis en contact avec un milieu à pH acide, généralement celui de l'estomac.Such a carbon dioxide generating system, consisting only of a carbon dioxide generating agent, does not begin to form bubbles of carbon dioxide until after having been brought into contact with a medium at acidic pH, generally that of l 'stomach.
Afin d'accélérer la formation des bulles de dioxyde de carbone, et donc améliorer la flottaison de la composition pharmaceutique à résidence gastrique de l'invention, on préfère mettre en oeuvre un système générateur de dioxyde de carbone indépendant du pH. Un tel système peut comprendre un agent générateur de dioxyde de carbone tel que ceux mentionnés plus haut, ainsi qu'au moins un composé acide choisi dans le groupe constitué par les acides monocarboxyliques comme l'acide lactique, les acides polycarboxyliques et les sels partiels d'acides polycarboxyliques . A titre de composés acides on peut plus particulièrement citer les acides tartrique, maléïque, malonique, malique, fumarique, succinique, adipique, citrique et leurs sels partiels, tels le citrate monosodique.In order to accelerate the formation of carbon dioxide bubbles, and therefore to improve the flotation of the pharmaceutical composition with gastric residence of the invention, it is preferable to use a system that generates carbon dioxide. carbon independent of pH. Such a system can comprise a carbon dioxide generating agent such as those mentioned above, as well as at least one acid compound chosen from the group consisting of monocarboxylic acids such as lactic acid, polycarboxylic acids and the partial salts of polycarboxylic acids. Mention may more particularly be made, as acid compounds, of tartaric, maleic, malonic, malic, fumaric, succinic, adipic, citric acids and their partial salts, such as monosodium citrate.
Dans un tel système générateur de dioxyde de carbone, la teneur en composé acide est généralement choisie de sorte que le nombre de moles en ledit composé acide par rapport au nombre de moles en ledit agent générateur de dioxyde de carbone soit compris entre 0,7 et 1,4 fois la stoechiométrie. Toutefois, si le principe actif ou tout autre composant entrant dans la formulation de la composition selon l'invention présente un caractère basique, Il peut être requis d'augmenter en conséquence la teneur en composé acide.In such a carbon dioxide generating system, the acid compound content is generally chosen so that the number of moles in said acid compound relative to the number of moles in said carbon dioxide generating agent is between 0.7 and 1.4 times the stoichiometry. However, if the active principle or any other component used in the formulation of the composition according to the invention has a basic character, it may be necessary to increase the content of acidic compound accordingly.
Le moyen permettant la rétention partielle du dioxyde de carbone généré par le système générateur de dioxyde de carbone doit autoriser la diffusion du dioxyde de carbone de manière contrôllée. Il doit empêcher la diffusion trop rapide du dioxyde de carbone qui conduirait a une flottaison trop courte dans le temps de la composition pharmaceutique selon la présente invention. A l'inverse, il doit permettre une diffusion suffisante du dioxyde de carbone pour assurer un temps de flottaison déterminé de ladite composition dans l'estomac, ainsi que la diffusion suffisante d'eau ou d'un composé aqueux au sein de la composition selon l'invention.The means allowing the partial retention of the carbon dioxide generated by the carbon dioxide generating system must allow the diffusion of the carbon dioxide in a controlled manner. It must prevent the too rapid diffusion of carbon dioxide which would lead to too short a flotation in time of the pharmaceutical composition according to the present invention. Conversely, it must allow sufficient diffusion of carbon dioxide to ensure a determined flotation time of said composition in the stomach, as well as sufficient diffusion of water or an aqueous compound within the composition according to the invention.
Ce moyen peut consister en une matrice poreuse minérale, notamment des matrices à base de silicates ou de fluorure de calcium, ou, de préférence, en un polymère. Selon un aspect particulièrement avantageux de l'invention, ledit polymère consiste en au moins un polymère hydrophile. Les polymères hydrophiles convenant pour une composition pharmaceutique selon l'invention sont ceux pouvant former un gel hydrocolloïdal au contact d'un liquide aqueux, en particulier les liquides aqueux contenus dans l'estomac. A titre de tels polymères hydrophiles on peut citer (i) les polysaccharides naturels comme les alginates, la gomme xanthane, la gomme guar ou la gomme de caroube, (ii) les polysaccharides hémisynthétiques, en particulier les dérivés de la cellulose comme la méthylcellulose, 1 ' éthylcellulose, la méthylhydroxyéthylcellulose, la carboxyméthylcellulose et ses sels tels la carboxyméthylcellulose sodique ou la carboxyméthylcellulose calcique, et, préférentiellement , l'hydroxypropylcellulose, 1 ' hydroxypropylméthylcellulose et les mélanges d' hydroxypropylcellulose et d' hydroxypropylméthylcellulose ou (iii) les polymères vinyliques, les polymères hydrophiles synthétiques comme les polymères dérivés des acides acrylique et méthacrylique et leurs sels, tels les polyacrylates, notamment ceux commercialisés sous la marque Carbopol®, les polymères d'acides aminés comme les polylysines et (iv) certaines protéines ou leurs dérivés comme les gélatines. Les dérivés de la cellulose sont particulièrement préférés.This means can consist of a porous mineral matrix, in particular matrices based on silicates or calcium fluoride, or, preferably, in a polymer. According to a particularly advantageous aspect of the invention, said polymer consists of at least one hydrophilic polymer. The hydrophilic polymers suitable for a pharmaceutical composition according to the invention are those which can form a hydrocolloid gel in contact with an aqueous liquid, in particular the aqueous liquids contained in the stomach. As such hydrophilic polymers, mention may be made of (i) natural polysaccharides such as alginates, xanthan gum, guar gum or locust bean gum, (ii) hemisynthetic polysaccharides, in particular cellulose derivatives such as methylcellulose, Ethylcellulose, methylhydroxyethylcellulose, carboxymethylcellulose and its salts such as sodium carboxymethylcellulose or carboxymethylcellulose calcium, and preferably hydroxypropylcellulose, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose and mixtures of hydroxypropylcellulose and hydroxypropylmethylcellulose or hydroxypropylmethylcellulose synthetic hydrophilic polymers such as polymers derived from acrylic and methacrylic acids and their salts, such polyacrylates include those sold under the Carbopol ® brand, amino acid polymers such as polylysine and (iv) certain proteins or derivatives thereof such as gelatins. Cellulose derivatives are particularly preferred.
Les teneurs en les différents composés constitutifs d'une composition pharmaceutique selon l'invention sont généralement choisies de sorte que la densité relative dans l'estomac de cette composition soit inférieure à 1,00.The contents of the various constituent components of a pharmaceutical composition according to the invention are generally chosen so that the relative density in the stomach of this composition is less than 1.00.
Habituellement, une composition pharmaceutique selon l'invention comprend de 5 à 70 %, de préférence de 10 à 60 % en poids de principe actif, de 10 à 75 %, de préférence de 15 à 50% en poids en au moins un polymère hydrophile et de 5 à 50 %, de préférence 10 à 40% en poids d'agent générateur de dioxyde de carbone, les pourcentages étant exprimés par rapport au poids total de ladite composition.Usually, a pharmaceutical composition according to the invention comprises from 5 to 70%, preferably from 10 to 60% by weight of active principle, from 10 to 75%, preferably from 15 to 50% by weight in at least one hydrophilic polymer and from 5 to 50%, preferably 10 to 40% by weight of carbon dioxide generating agent, the percentages being expressed relative to the total weight of said composition.
Une composition pharmaceutique à résidence gastrique selon l'invention peut se présenter sous la forme de gélules, de granulés ou, de préférence, de comprimés. Ces derniers sont des comprimés flottants, c'est à dire qu'ils peuvent flotter sur les liquides de l'estomac.A pharmaceutical composition with gastric residence according to the invention can be in the form of capsules, granules or, preferably, tablets. These last are floating tablets, that is, they can float on stomach fluids.
Une telle composition pharmaceutique peut être préparée par simple mélange de ses composants, suivi d'une mise en forme pharmaceutique réalisée de manière conventionnelle. Préalablement à la mise en forme pharmaceutique, en particulier en vue de l'obtention d'un comprimé flottant, le mélange comprenant tout ou partie des composants constitutifs de la composition selon l'invention, peut être granulé ou aggloméré.Such a pharmaceutical composition can be prepared by simple mixing of its components, followed by pharmaceutical shaping carried out in a conventional manner. Prior to pharmaceutical shaping, in particular with a view to obtaining a floating tablet, the mixture comprising all or part of the constituent components of the composition according to the invention, may be granulated or agglomerated.
En vue de la préparation d'un comprimé flottant selon l'invention on peut comprimé le mélange des composants constitutifs de la composition selon l'invention. On peut ajouter au mélange à comprimer des agents lubrifiants comme les polyéthylèneglycols de poids moléculaire compris entre 1.500 et 10.000, le stéarate de magnésium ou le stéaryl fumarate de sodium, ainsi que des excipients classiques tels des agents d'écoulement ou des agents de compression.With a view to the preparation of a floating tablet according to the invention, the mixture of constituent components of the composition according to the invention can be compressed. Lubricants such as polyethylene glycols with a molecular weight between 1,500 and 10,000, magnesium stearate or sodium stearyl fumarate, as well as conventional excipients such as flow agents or compression agents, can be added to the tablet mixture.
Une composition pharmaceutique selon l'invention, comprenant un benzamide donné, peut être utilisée pour le traitement de maladies déjà traitées par le même benzamide sous sa forme classique. Ainsi, si le benzamide consiste en l'amisulpride, le sulpiride, l'un de leurs énantiomères, le tiapride, ou un de leurs sels, la composition pharmaceutique selon l'invention peut être utilisée dans le traitement de l'une des pathologies mentionnées plus haut, respectivement, pour chacun de ces benzamides.A pharmaceutical composition according to the invention, comprising a given benzamide, can be used for the treatment of diseases already treated with the same benzamide in its conventional form. Thus, if the benzamide consists of amisulpride, sulpiride, one of their enantiomers, tiapride, or one of their salts, the pharmaceutical composition according to the invention can be used in the treatment of one of the pathologies mentioned above, respectively, for each of these benzamides.
