Abstract

The invention relates to a composition in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion, preferably free of emulsifying agents, comprising, in a physiologically acceptable medium, at least one particular retinoid. The invention also relates to the method for preparing such a composition and to the cosmetic and dermatological use thereof.

Description

Oil/water-emulsion-type topical compositions containing a retinoid
The invention relates to a composition in the form of emulsion comprising, in a physiologically acceptable environment, at least one new retinoid with the general formula (I)
(I) where:
Ri is a hydrogen atom, an alkyl radical of 1 to 4 carbon atoms or a -CF3 radical; R2 is a hydrogen atom, an alkyl or alkoxy radical of 1 to 4 carbon atoms or a chlorine atom; R3 is a hydrogen atom, or a linear or branched alkyl or alkoxy radical of 1 to 10 carbon atoms possibly substituted by a methoxy group; R4 is a hydrogen atom or an alkyl radical of 1 to 3 carbon atoms; R5 is a hydrogen atom or an alkyl radical of 1 to 3 carbon atoms; or R4 and R5 together form, with the -N-C(=Y)- bond, a ring of the pyrrolidine, pyrrolidinone, piperidine or piperidinone type; Y denotes two hydrogen atoms or a heteroatom such as oxygen or sulfur;
Ar denotes a 1,4-phenyl, 2,5-pyridyl, 5,2-pyridyl or 2,5-thiophenyl ring; X denotes an oxygen atom, possibly substituted by an alkyl or alkylamine chain or a single C-C bond; A denotes a hydrogen atom or the following formula:
where o Q is an oxygen atom or the bond-NH-; o Rg denotes a hydrogen atom, an alkyl radical of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, a cycloalkyl radical of 3 to 6 carbon atoms, a -C(0)CH2 or -C(0)CH2CH3 radical; o R7 and R/ denote, independently of each other, a hydrogen atom or a hydroxyl group, on condition that R7 and R/ are not simultaneously a hydroxyl group; n is equal to 0,1, 2, 3, 4 or 5.
These compounds, described in patent EP1831149, are potent retinoids modulating the nuclear receptor of retinoic acid (RAR), more specifically of the gamma subtype of this receptor (RARy).
The receptors RARs activate the transcription by binding with elements of DNA sequences, called the RAR Element (RARE) response elements, in the form of a heterodimer with the X receptors of the retinoids (called RXRs).
Three subtypes of human RARs have been identified and described: RARa, RARp and RARy.
Since the gamma RAR receptors are located in the epidermis it is important for the compounds described in the general formula (I) to be released in this part of the skin to provide clinical efficacy.
The topical application of retinoids may result in irritation of the skin, dryness and erythema. Numerous articles describe this irritating effect, such as the articles by Stiicker & al. Skin Res Technol. 2002 May;8(2):133-40 or by Thielitz & al. Am J Clin Dermatol. 2008;9(6):369-81.
To obtain topical preparations for pharmaceutical use containing retinoids, numerous techniques are used, in particular emulsions such as those referred to in the patent EP-826366, which describes emulsions which may contain retinoids, or even patent EP-989846, which describes emulsions containing retinoids and at least one emulsifier.
Emulsifiers are molecules that belong to the chemical family of amphiphilic molecules, which are often irritating. Compositions without emulsifiers are in fact less irritating that those containing them.
The fact that emulsifiers are not used in the compositions containing retinoids would therefore enable cutaneous irritation due to the presence of this class of molecule to be limited.
The prior art describes O/W emulsions with or without emulsifier. We may cite, in particular, patent US 5,851,538, which describes formulations with or without emulsifier with porous microspheres containing a practically continuous network of pores open to the outside and comprising retinoids.
Nevertheless, although the compounds described by the general formula (I) exhibit interesting chemical and physical stability properties for preparations for pharmaceutical uses, they degrade chemically in many of their solvents.
There is therefore a need for stable, well tolerated pharmaceutical compositions containing compounds described by general formula (I). A first aspect relates to an oil-in-water emulsion-type composition comprising a fatty phase comprising: a compound with general formula (I)

Ar denotes a 1,4-phenyl, 2,5-pyridyl, 5,2-pyridyl or 2,5-thiophenyl ring; X denotes an oxygen atom, possibly substituted by an alkyl or alkylamine chain or a single C-C bond; A denotes a hydrogen atom or the following formula:
where: o Q is an oxygen atom or the bond-NH-; o R6 denotes a hydrogen atom, an alkyl radical of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, a cycloalkyl radical of 3 to 6 carbon atoms, a -C(0)CH2 or -C(0)CH2CH3 radical; o R7 and R/ denote, independently of each other, a hydrogen atom or a hydroxyl group, on condition that R7 and R7' are not simultaneously a hydroxyl group; n is equal to 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 ; at least one principal solvent of the compound (I) selected from among benzyl alcohol, laureth-4, phenoxyethanol, propylene glycol monocaprylate, pentylene glycol, dimethyl isosorbide and mixtures thereof, and at least one co-solvent oil of the compound (I) selected from among the caprylic/capric triglycerides, sweet almond oil, propylene glycol monocaprylate, propylene glycol laurate, sorbitan sesquioleate, diisopropyl adipate, PPG-15 stearyl ether, apricot kernel oil PEG-6 ester, and mixtures thereof, and an aqueous phase comprising at least one gelifying agent selected from polymers of plant origin, gums, pectins, cellulose and its derivatives, polymers of microbiological origin and gelifying polymers of synthetic origin.

Compound A: as being 3"-tert-butyl-4,-(2-hydroxy-ethoxy)-4"-pyrrolidin-l-yl-[l,l,;3,,l"]-terphenyl-4-carboxylic acid.
Due to the physico-chemical characteristics of the active ingredient, the Applicant has had to face a certain number of constraints in the use of the compounds described by general formula (I).
These compounds: -are soluble in few solvents normally used in the fatty phases of the topical emulsions - degrade chemically in many of their solvents - degrade chemically in the presence of numerous emulsifiers. A first subject according to this invention describes compositions containing at least one compound with general formula (I) in the form of emulsions of the type O/W (Oil in Water) and in which the active ingredient is solubilised in the fatty phase.
According to a particularly preferred embodiment, the composition according to the invention does not contain any emulsifier.
These emulsions exhibit good physical and chemical stability, a rapid rate of penetration and a high level of penetration in the epidermis and/or the dermis.
Emulsion is understood to mean a macroscopically homogeneous but microscopically heterogeneous mixture of two immiscible liquid substances that we shall call phases. An O/W (oil in water) emulsion consists of a fatty (or oily) phase dispersed in an aqueous phase.
In the invention the compositions contain the active ingredient described by general formula (I) at concentrations ranging from 0.00001% to 1% by weight, preferably from 0.0001 to 0.1 % by weight, and more preferably from 0.001 to 0.1 % by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition.
Preferably the active ingredient described by general formula (I) is compound A.
In the invention the compositions contain at least one gelifying agent.
The term "gelifying agent" is intended to mean a polymer compound capable of conferring on the composition the texture of a gel.
The gelifying agent (s) may in particular be selected from polymers of plant origin, gums, pectins, cellulose and its derivatives, polymers of microbiological origin, such as xanthan gum, and gelifying polymers of synthetic origin.

Examples
Example 1 - Pre-formulation
In order to obtain an oil in water emulsion containing a compound with the general formula (I) in the fat phase, pre-formulation studies have been conducted to identify the excipients allowing good solubilisation as well as good stability of the active ingredient. (1) List of fat phase excipients in which the maximum solubility has been determined by HPLC :
The limit below which the compounds with the general formula (I) are considered as being not solubilised is 0.1% by weight. (2) Stability of compound A in its principal solvents:
These stability studies of compound A in its principal solvents show that compound A degrades chemically in a number of its solvents.
These results have enabled us to select our principal solvent (phenoxyethanol) and our co-solvent oils from among the solvent oils which exhibit good stability results, with the aim of developing O/W emulsions in which compound A is solubilised in the oily phase.
(3) Stability of compound A in mixtures of excipients (solvent/surfactants) determined by HPLC :
Studies of stability of compound A solubilised in oils (in which it is stable) in the presence of surfactants have been conducted:
The limits fixed for high stability are 95%-105% as a percentage relative to TO.
These studies showed that compound A degrades chemically in the presence of numerous surfactants. Following these results we therefore decided to develop an O/W emulsion without emulsifier. EXAMPLE 2: Formulations

Example 3: Characterisation of the formulations by cutaneous penetration studies on human skin:
The cutaneous penetration studies enable the formulations to be characterised and the parameters peculiar to each of the formulations to be demonstrated.
Two types of cutaneous penetration studies were carried out ex vivo on human skin. In these studies compound A corresponds to 3"-tert-butyl-4,-(2-hydroxy-ethoxy)-4"-pyrrolidin-l-yl-[l,l,;3,,l"]-terphenyl-4-carboxylic acid.
The reference gel is described as follows:
1- "Single time" cutaneous penetration study:
In this study the formula is applied for 16 hours to the surface of the skin. After the application, compound A (COMPOUND A) is quantified in the different compartments of the skin: stratum corneum, epidermis, dermis and receiving liquid according to a validated bioanalysis method.
The details of the cutaneous application are given in the table below.
The bioanalysis was conducted by mass spectrometry in tandem by positive electrospray ionisation using a Xevo device (Waters). The limit of quantification for compound A is 1 ng/mL.
The conditions of LC/MS/MS developed enabled up to 0.1% of the dose applied in each of the compartments to be detected (unabsorbed dose, stratum, epidermis, dermis and receiving liquid).
The technical conditions are given in the table below.
In this type of "single point" study the parameters considered are: a. The distribution profile in the different compartments (qualitative data) b. The penetration in the epidermis + dermis compartment (numerical data) a-Distribution profile in the different compartments:
This profile is shown in Figure 1.
The distribution profile between the different compartments is of the same time for the 2 formulae evaluated: accumulation in the stratum corneum, lower rate of penetration in the epidermis, and very low penetration in the dermis. Compound A is not detected in the receiving liquid. b-Penetration values in the epidermis + dermis compartment:
The penetration values for the oil in water type emulsion without emulsifier, containing 100pg/g (0.01%) of compound A are between 6.8ng/cm2 and 10.6ng/cm2. The levels of penetration of compound A after application of the oil in water type emulsion without emulsifier tend to be higher than those obtained after application of the reference gel. 2- Penetration kinetics study:
In this type of study the penetration of the active ingredient is quantified in each compartment of the skin after 0.5 h, 1 h, 3 h, 6 h and 24 h of application. The penetration kinetics in each compartment are then determined and characterised.
The details of the cutaneous application are given in the table below:
The quantity of active ingredient in each compartment at each time was determined by LC/UV or by LC/MS. The bioanalysis method was validated so that at least 0.1% of the dose applied in each compartment could be detected.
In this type of study the parameters considered are: a. The penetration kinetics profile in the epidermis (qualitative data) b. The initial rate of penetration in the epidermis c. The maximum quantity that has penetrated the epidermis a. Penetration kinetics profile in the epidermis:
This is shown in Figure 2.
The release kinetics of compound A obtained for the oil in water type emulsion without emulsifier exhibit a high initial gradient followed by a ceiling during which the penetration of compound A no longer increases in the course of time. The reference formula (gel) shows the same kinetics with rapid release for the first few hours, after which a plateau is reached.
As seen in Section 1 ("Single time" cutaneous penetration study), these two formulae have different penetration levels at 16h, and the penetration of compound A in the epidermis after application of the oil in water emulsion without emulsifier tends to be higher than that obtained after application of the reference gel. b. Initial rate of the kinetics:
The initial value of the rate of the kinetics or gradient in the first 3 hours is 4.2ng/cm2/h. c. Maximum quantity in the epidermis:
The maximum quantity in the epidermis is 18.7ng/cm2.
Example 4 Tolerance study In this study: -10 subjects received 2 grams of gel (reference gel) applied to 1000 cm2 for 4 weeks. A reference gel is understood to mean a gel described as follows:
- 10 subjects received 2 grams of Cream B (oil in water emulsion without emulsifier-Formula 1) applied to 1000 cm2 for 4 weeks.
During the study the investigators had the opportunity of changing the area of application where irritation was excessive.
The results of the study are presented in the table below: The numerical values are the number of patients for whom a change of area was made (value N in the table), and the value in brackets is the percentage corresponding to N.
Development of the percentage of subjects for whom there is no change of area of application
Figure 3 shows the percentage of subjects for whom there was no change in the area of application as a function of the day of application.
For example, on day 5, for 90% of the subjects receiving Cream B, there was no need to change the area of application. In other words, 10% of the subjects who received Cream B suffered from an irritation requiring a change of area of application.
It is therefore established that the irritation occurs more quickly in the subjects who received the gel than in the subjects who received Cream B. A marked difference is observed from day 9 onwards.
