Description
-1- STABLE COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING N-PROPARGYL-1-
AMINOINDAN
FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention concerns formulations of racemic, or enantiomers of N-propargyl-l-aminoindan, and especially formulations of the enantiomer of N-propargyl-l-aminoindan (referred to hereinafter as PAI) which is a selective irreversible inhibitor of the Bform of the enzyme monoamine oxidase used, for example, for the treatment S of Parkinson's disease. In the following the enzyme monoamine oxidase will be referred to as MAO and the B-form thereof as MAO-B.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION GB 1 003 686 discloses a group of benzocycloalkane compounds in which the cycloalkane has from five to seven ring members and is substituted by an N-(alkynylalkyl)amino group, and their use as MAO inhibitors. The patent further discloses the use of the subject compounds in admixture with a variety of substances including various alcohols such as a benzyl alcohol, stearyl alcohol, and methanol. The patent, however, does not teach how and by what criteria any of the many possible carriers and other ingredients are selected so as to overcome the stability problem of the product.
-2- The object of the present invention is to provide stable formulations comprising an effective amount of racemic, or R(+)-N-propargyl-1-aminoindan.
For the sake of simplicity, the abbreviation PAI, unless specified otherwise, will be used to denote the enantiomers of N-propargyl-1-aminoindan, as well as their racemic mixtures.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In accordance with the invention it was surprisingly found that the stability of formulations comprising racemic, and R(+)-N-propargyl-1-aminoindan or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof can be significantly improved by the incorporation of relatively large amounts of certain alcohols and/or citric acid.
In accordance with the present invention there is provided a pharmaceutical composition in tablet form comprising as an active ingredient a therapeutically effective amount of a R(+)-N-propargyl-1-aminoindan or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and at least one additional ingredient selected from the group consisting of pentahydric alcohol, a hexahydric alcohol and citric acid.
Preferably, the composition comprises at least 60% by weight of at least one alcohol being a member selected from the group of pentahydric and hexahydric alcohols.
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention the active ingredient is .R(+)-N-propargyl-1-aminoindan.
Preferably the composition comprises at least 70% of said at least one alcohol.
Typically the alcohol used in accordance with of the invention, is a member selected from the group of mannitol, xylitol and sorbitol.
In accordance with the invention the PAl-comprising composition may further include citric acid, preferably in an amount of 0.5 to 2% by weight.
If desired, compositions according to the invention may further comprise 30 magnesium stearate, preferably in an amount of 0.1 to 0.5% by weight. According to this embodiment, where the amount of said at least one alcohol is less than by weight, the composition further comprises citric acid in an amount specified above. Where the amount of said at least one alcohol is at least 70% by weight, the inclusion of citric acid is optional.
-3- The composition of the present invention may optionally also include conventional additives such as fillers, lubricants, disintegrants, glidants, flavoring agents, sweeteners, coloring agents, and the like, all as known per se. Examples of fillers which may be used in accordance with the present invention are lactose, starch, microcrystalline cellulose, maltrin and the like.
The compositions of the present invention may be prepared by methods known per se, familiar to those skilled in the art. For example, PAI and all other ingredients (with the exception of the lubricant, when 10 used) may be screened and mixed thoroughly in a suitable granulating machine. The granulation may occur in the presence of purified water, following which the composition is dried. The dry granulate may then be milled, lubricated and compressed into tablets. PAI itself may be prepared, for example, according to the process described in Example 6B of 15 W095/11016.
The following non-limiting examples are given by way of illustration.

*oo Formulation of W095/11016 (Example 20 R(+)-N-propargyl-l-aminoindan HCI Lactose (hydrous) Pregelatinized starch Microcrystalline cellulose Sodium starch glycolate Talc Magnesium stearate mg/tablet 1.56 50.0 36.0 14.0 2.14 This formulation, as well as those described under Examples 2 and 3 of the present application were subjected to 6 months at 40aC and humidity. The percentage of degradants of the active material was assayed at the end of the six month period.
-6- The following procedure was adopted to determine the degradation of the formulations prepared. The tablets were finely powdered and extracted with a diluent such as a mixture of water, acetonitrile and perchloric acid. An aliquot of the extraction product was injected into an HPLC and eluted using the same mixture as said diluent mixture. The area corresponding to the PAI compound was determined as was that of any other major peak. The calculations of degradation percent was made by comparing the areas of the measured peaks with those obtained from the standard preparation.
It was found that the formulation prepared according to the disclosure of Example 20 of W095/11016 contained after storage 3.08% degradants whereas the formulations of Examples 2 and 3 contained 0.51% and less than 0.1% degradants, respectively.
EXAMPLE 7 Formulations according to the present invention and others according to the description given in Example 20 of W095/11016 were prepared containing the ingredients shown in Table 1. The formulations described in this Table are designated "PCT" when prepared in accordance with the disclosure in W095/11016, or by a number which corresponds to the number of the Example in the present application, in which they are described. The qualifying symbols of A, B, C or D appearing next to some of these designations denote certain variations in said formulations. The percentage of degradation, presented in Table 2, was calculated for all the formulations of Table 1, after storing them for 1 month at 55°C or for 6 months at 40 0 C and 75% humidity. Those formulations stored according to the latter storing conditions are marked in the Table with an astrix As can be seen from Table 2, the stabilities of all the compositions of the present invention was superior to those of the prior art.
