†Processo per la preparazione di compresse a rilascio controllato†⠀ Process for the preparation of controlled-release tablets⠀
DESCRIZIONE DESCRIPTION
La presente invenzione riguarda un processo per la preparazione di compresse a rilascio controllato contenenti glucosammina. The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of controlled release tablets containing glucosamine.
La glucosammina à ̈ un prodotto naturale presente nelle conchiglie dei molluschi e nelle ossa e nel midollo osseo degli animali. Glucosamine is a natural product found in the shells of molluscs and in the bones and marrow of animals.
Il nome chimico del composto à ̈ 2-ammino-2-deossi-D-glucosio che corrisponde alla seguente formula The chemical name of the compound is 2-amino-2-deoxy-D-glucose which corresponds to the following formula

La glucosammina à ̈ un amminozucchero precursore di componenti della cartilagine chiamati glucosamminoglicani che stimolano la produzione di collagene. Pertanto la glucosammina protegge dalla perdita di cartilagine nelle articolazioni aiutando a ripristinare le normali funzioni articolari. Glucosamine is an amino sugar precursor of cartilage components called glucosaminoglycans that stimulate collagen production. Therefore glucosamine protects against cartilage loss in the joints by helping to restore normal joint functions.
La somministrazione di glucosammina per via orale à ̈ normalmente utilizzata nel trattamento delle osteoartriti proprio per le sue proprietà di prevenire la degenerazione della cartilagine. The oral administration of glucosamine is normally used in the treatment of osteoarthritis precisely for its properties to prevent cartilage degeneration.
La glucosammina à ̈ rapidamente metabolizzata nel tratto gastrointestinale e pertanto il rilascio controllato di glucosammina presenta diversi vantaggi quali la maggior durata del trattamento terapeutico, la riduzione della variazione dei livelli plasmatici, la diminuzione delle somministrazioni giornaliere e la riduzione dei potenziali effetti collaterali legati ad un picco di concentrazione plasmatica più volte al giorno. Glucosamine is rapidly metabolized in the gastrointestinal tract and therefore the controlled release of glucosamine has several advantages such as a longer duration of therapeutic treatment, a reduction in the variation in plasma levels, a decrease in daily administration and a reduction in the potential side effects associated with a peak plasma concentration several times a day.
La glucosammina à ̈ piuttosto instabile in presenza di umidità perché può facilmente ossidarsi. Glucosamine is quite unstable in the presence of humidity because it can easily oxidize.
Sono note in letteratura diverse formulazioni orali di glucosammina a rilascio controllato. Several controlled release oral formulations of glucosamine are known in the literature.
La domanda di brevetto US 2004/0234599 descrive composizioni a rilascio controllato in cui la glucosammina à ̈ dispersa in una matrice a rilascio controllato costituita da almeno un polimero idrosolubile di cellulosa quale idrossipropilmetilcellulosa, idrossietilcellulosa, idrossipropilcellulosa, carbossimetilcellulosa. US patent application 2004/0234599 describes controlled release compositions in which glucosamine is dispersed in a controlled release matrix consisting of at least one water-soluble cellulose polymer such as hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, hydroxyethylcellulose, hydroxypropylcellulose, carboxymethylcellulose.
La domanda di brevetto WO 2008/136016 descrive formulazioni di glucosammina a rilascio controllato comprendenti un nucleo con una matrice polimerica idrofila ed un rivestimento polimerico permeabile pH-indipendente. Patent application WO 2008/136016 discloses controlled release glucosamine formulations comprising a core with a hydrophilic polymer matrix and a pH-independent permeable polymer coating.
Rimane l’esigenza di una composizione orale a rilascio controllato di glucosammina stabile e in grado di garantire un rilascio per un periodo di circa 12 ore. There remains the need for an oral composition with controlled release of glucosamine that is stable and capable of guaranteeing a release for a period of approximately 12 hours.
Abbiamo ora trovato che compresse di glucosammina a rilascio controllato contenenti una matrice idrofoba sono particolarmente stabili e garantiscono un efficace rilascio della glucosammina per 24 ore quando la preparazione della compressa viene effettuata per dispersione della glucosammina nella matrice idrofoba per trattamento ad una temperatura di almeno 70°C. We have now found that controlled release glucosamine tablets containing a hydrophobic matrix are particularly stable and guarantee effective glucosamine release for 24 hours when the tablet preparation is carried out by dispersing the glucosamine into the hydrophobic matrix by treatment at a temperature of at least 70 °. C.
Costituisce pertanto oggetto della presente invenzione una compressa a rilascio controllato contenente un quantitativo efficace di glucosammina, di un suo sale o di un suo derivato disperso in una matrice idrofoba caratterizzata dal fatto che la dispersione dalla glucosammina, di un suo sale o di un suo derivato nella matrice idrofoba à ̈ effettuata per trattamento ad una temperatura di almeno 70°C. Therefore, the object of the present invention is a controlled-release tablet containing an effective quantity of glucosamine, one of its salt or one of its derivatives dispersed in a hydrophobic matrix characterized by the fact that the dispersion of glucosamine, one of its salt or one of its derivatives in the hydrophobic matrix it is carried out by treatment at a temperature of at least 70 ° C.
La glucosammina viene utilizzata come glucosammina base libera, glucosammina cloridrato, glucosammina solfato, glucosammina solfato 2KCl, N-acetil-glucosammina. Preferibilmente viene utilizzata glucosammina solfato 2KCl. Glucosamine is used as free base glucosamine, glucosamine hydrochloride, glucosamine sulfate, glucosamine sulfate 2KCl, N-acetyl-glucosamine. Preferably, glucosamine sulfate 2KCl is used.
La glucosammina può essere eventualmente utilizzata in associazione con altri principi attivi quali acido ascorbico, vitamina A, vitamina E e condroitina. Glucosamine can possibly be used in association with other active ingredients such as ascorbic acid, vitamin A, vitamin E and chondroitin.
La quantità di glucosammina à ̈ generalmente compresa tra il 30% e l’80% in peso rispetto al peso finale della compressa, più preferibilmente tra il 50% e il 70% in peso. The quantity of glucosamine is generally between 30% and 80% by weight with respect to the final weight of the tablet, more preferably between 50% and 70% by weight.
Qualsiasi matrice idrofoba non termolabile può essere utilizzata per le compresse a rilascio controllato secondo la presente invenzione. Any non-thermolabile hydrophobic matrix can be used for the controlled release tablets according to the present invention.
Esempi di tali matrici sono cere, acidi grassi e loro derivati, come ad esempio cera carnauba, cera d’api, acido stearico, magnesio stearato, acido adipico, acido oleico, gliceril palmitostearato e gliceril behenato. Examples of such matrices are waxes, fatty acids and their derivatives, such as for example carnauba wax, beeswax, stearic acid, magnesium stearate, adipic acid, oleic acid, glyceryl palmitostearate and glyceryl behenate.
Vengono preferibilmente utilizzate matrici a base di acidi grassi e loro derivati, ancor più preferibilmente a base di acido stearico e suoi derivati. Particolarmente preferita à ̈ una matrice a base di acido stearico e magnesio stearato. Matrices based on fatty acids and their derivatives are preferably used, even more preferably based on stearic acid and its derivatives. Particularly preferred is a matrix based on stearic acid and magnesium stearate.
L’acido stearico à ̈ preferibilmente utilizzato in una quantità tra il 20% ed il 40% in peso rispetto al peso della compressa più preferibilmente tra il 25% ed il 30% in peso rispetto al peso della compressa. Stearic acid is preferably used in an amount between 20% and 40% by weight with respect to the weight of the tablet, more preferably between 25% and 30% by weight with respect to the weight of the tablet.
Il magnesio stearato à ̈ preferibilmente utilizzato in quantità tra il 2% e l’8% in peso rispetto al peso della compressa, più preferibilmente tra il 4% ed il 6% in peso rispetto al peso della compressa. Magnesium stearate is preferably used in quantities between 2% and 8% by weight with respect to the weight of the tablet, more preferably between 4% and 6% by weight with respect to the weight of the tablet.
La compressa può eventualmente essere rivestita con un film a base di cellulosa o di un altro polimero o miscela di polimeri convenzionalmente utilizzati per la filmatura di compresse. The tablet can optionally be coated with a cellulose-based film or another polymer or mixture of polymers conventionally used for film-forming tablets.
Quando viene filmata, la compressa preparata secondo la presente invenzione à ̈ preferibilmente rivestita con un film a base di cellulosa quale ad esempio Opadry Colorcon. When filmed, the tablet prepared according to the present invention is preferably coated with a cellulose-based film such as for example Opadry Colorcon.
La compressa può contenere, in aggiunta alla matrice idrofoba, anche altri eccipienti normalmente utilizzati nella preparazione di compresse quali diluenti, leganti, disgreganti, glidanti, antiaderenti, aromatizzanti, coloranti, ecc. The tablet may contain, in addition to the hydrophobic matrix, also other excipients normally used in the preparation of tablets such as diluents, binders, disintegrants, glidants, non-stick, flavoring, coloring, etc.
Preferibilmente le compresse secondo la presente invenzione contengono solo la matrice idrofobica ed un eventuale film di rivestimento. Preferably the tablets according to the present invention contain only the hydrophobic matrix and a possible coating film.
La caratteristica delle compresse della presente invenzione à ̈ rappresentata dal processo di preparazione che prevede la dispersione della glucosammina nella matrice idrofoba per trattamento ad una temperatura superiore a 70°C. The characteristic of the tablets of the present invention is represented by the preparation process which provides for the dispersion of glucosamine in the hydrophobic matrix by treatment at a temperature higher than 70 ° C.
Costituisce pertanto un ulteriore oggetto della presente invenzione un processo per la preparazione di compresse a rilascio controllato contenenti glucosammina, un suo sale o un suo derivato ed una matrice idrofoba comprendente la dispersione della glucosammina, del suo sale o del suo derivato nella matrice idrofoba per trattamento ad una temperatura superiore ad 70°C. Therefore, a further object of the present invention is a process for the preparation of controlled-release tablets containing glucosamine, its salt or its derivative and a hydrophobic matrix comprising the dispersion of glucosamine, its salt or its derivative in the hydrophobic matrix for treatment at a temperature above 70 ° C.
La compressa secondo la presente invenzione può quindi essere preparata utilizzando tecniche di fusione, miscelazione o granulazione a secco o ad umido operando a temperature superiori a 70°C. The tablet according to the present invention can therefore be prepared using dry or wet melting, mixing or granulation techniques operating at temperatures above 70 ° C.
Preferibilmente viene utilizzata la fusione in forno della miscela di glucosammina e della matrice idrofoba. The melting of the glucosamine mixture and the hydrophobic matrix is preferably used.
Dopo il trattamento a temperatura superiore a 70°C, la miscela ottenuta viene compressa ed eventualmente rivestita secondo tecniche convenzionali. After the treatment at a temperature higher than 70 ° C, the mixture obtained is compressed and optionally coated according to conventional techniques.
Il limite superiore dell’intervallo di temperatura operativa del processo di preparazione delle compresse secondo la presente invenzione sarà scelto in funzione del tipo di processo utilizzato e della stabilità termica dei componenti della compressa. The upper limit of the operating temperature range of the tablet preparation process according to the present invention will be chosen according to the type of process used and the thermal stability of the tablet components.
E’ evidente che la temperatura non potrà essere superiore a 100°C in caso di utilizzo di processi acquosi mentre potrà essere più elevata in caso di utilizzo di processi a secco. It is evident that the temperature cannot be higher than 100 ° C in case of use of aqueous processes while it could be higher in case of use of dry processes.
Tuttavia per motivi pratici ed economici si preferisce effettuare la dispersione della glucosammina nella matrice idrofoba ad una temperatura tra 70°C e 100°C. However, for practical and economic reasons it is preferred to carry out the dispersion of the glucosamine in the hydrophobic matrix at a temperature between 70 ° C and 100 ° C.
Le compresse preparate secondo la presente invenzione rilasciano efficacemente e costantemente glucosammina per un periodo di circa 12 ore come mostrato in fig.1. The tablets prepared according to the present invention efficiently and constantly release glucosamine for a period of about 12 hours as shown in fig. 1.
Le compresse presentano inoltre un’elevata stabilità . Il loro aspetto rimane inalterato dopo conservazione per due mesi a 40°C e 75% di umidità relativa. The tablets also have a high stability. Their appearance remains unchanged after storage for two months at 40 ° C and 75% relative humidity.
