Definitions
- Enteric coated solid dosage form comprising omega-3 fatty acid amino acid salts
- Omega-3 fatty acids particularly eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)
- EPA eicosapentaenoic acid
- DHA docosahexaenoic acid
- the EFSA European Food Safety Authority
- EPA + DHA EFSA Panel on Dietetic Products, Nutrition and Allergies, EFSA Journal 2010, 8 (3), 1461
- the AHA American Heart Association
- omega-3 fatty acids especially from fish oil but also from other plant or microbial sources, are increasingly used as food supplements, food additives and medicaments.
- DHA docosahexaenoic acid
- omega- 3 fatty acid is eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), which is referred to as "20:5 n-3" (all-cis-5,8, 1 1 , 14, 17- eicosapentaenoic acid).
- EPA eicosapentaenoic acid
- omega-3 fatty acid products introduced to the market are offered in the form of oils, starting from fish oil with a content of about 30% omega-3 fatty acids up to concentrates with over 90% content of EPA or DHA or mixtures of these two omega-3 fatty acids.
- the formulations used are predominantly soft gelatine capsules.
- numerous further product forms have been described, such as microencapsulations or powder preparations (C. J. Barrow, B. Wang, B.
- the bioavailability of the different omega-3 derivatives for the human body is very diverse. Since omega-3 fatty acids as free fatty acids together with monoacyl glycerides are absorbed in the small intestine, the bioavailability of free omega-3 fatty acids is better than that of triglycerides or ethyl esters since these have firstly to be cleaved to the free fatty acids in the digestive tract (J. P. Schuchhardt, A. Hahn, Prostaglandins Leukotrienes Essent. Fatty Acids 2013, 89, 1 ). The stability to oxidation is also very different in different omega-3 derivatives.
- Free omega-3 fatty acids are described as very sensitive to oxidation (J. P. Schuchhardt, A. Hahn, Prostaglandins Leukotrienes Essent. Fatty Acids 2013, 89, 1 ).
- oxidation J. P. Schuchhardt, A. Hahn, Prostaglandins Leukotrienes Essent. Fatty Acids 2013, 89, 1 .
- solid omega-3 form an increased stability compared to liquid products is assumed (J. A. Kralovec, H. S. Ewart, J. H. D. Wright, L. V. Watson, D. Dennis, C. J. Barrow, J. Functional Foods 2009, 1 , 217).
- preparations of omega-3 fatty acids with diverse amino acids, such as lysine and arginine are known, either as mixtures (P. Literati Nagy, M. Boros, J.
- omega-3 aminoalcohol salts by spray-drying is also mentioned (P. Rongved, J. Klaveness, US 2007/0213298 A1 ).
- DHA amino acid salts is described by evaporation to dryness under high vacuum and low temperature or freeze-drying (T. Bruzzese, EP0734373 B1 und US 5750572).
- the resulting products are described as very thick, transparent oils which transform at low temperature into solids of waxy appearance and consistency.
- omega-3 fatty acid products are a fishy taste and smell. When the omega-3 fatty acid products are adsorbed in the stomach, further negative effects accrue, such as a fishy reflux and unpleasant fishy regurgitation, which shall be avoided.
- Enteric film coatings are applied to oral dosage forms to delay the release of the active ingredients until the dosage form has passed through the acidic environment of the stomach (pH between 1.0 and 3.0) and has reached the less acidic environment of the proximal small intestine.
- the physical chemical environment of the stomach and gastric physiology are highly variable, due to multiple factors such as disease state, medication, age, and eating.
- the pH is less than 2.0 in healthy individuals, and gastric emptying occurs approximately every 30 minutes.
- gastric emptying is delayed for 2 to 4 hours and gastric pH can be as high as pH 4.0.
- enteric film coatings include methacrylic acid copolymers, polyvinyl acetate phthalate, cellulose acetate phthalate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose phthalate and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetylsuccinate.
- shellac is a natural, food approved, resinous material, which is secreted by the female lac bug Kama lacca and is a complex mixture of materials.
- the two main components with enteric properties being shelloic and aleuritic acid.
- shellac is well known as a material with enteric-like properties, it has a number of drawbacks. Due to insolubility in water, shellac has traditionally been used in the form of organic solvent based solutions. Additionally, in its natural state, shellac is generally not soluble below a pH of 7.5 to 8.0.
- shellac films simply soften and disintegrate after immersion in water for a number of hours. This is problematic as enteric coatings should generally be soluble or rupturable in the proximal intestinal environment. Lastly, shellac coatings have been reported to undergo esterification during aging, rendering the film completely water insoluble even in alkaline pH. Enteric coating using shellac for liquid omega-3 fatty acid compositions in food products has been described in the international patent application WO2012/168882A1. However, this publication refers to liquid components only.
- solid omega-3 fatty acid preparations which can be readily and cost-effectively formulated as solid dosage forms, which have better bioavailability and in addition are also more stable than standard liquid formulations.
- these solid dosage forms shall comprise an enteric coating, which allow a release of the omega-3 fatty acids in the small intestine at pH values below pH 7.0. To allow an optimal absorption of omega-3 fatty acids already in the upper intestine, it is desirable that those are released at a slight lower pH-value around pH 5.0.
- enteric coated solid dosage forms according to the present invention comprising a core with one or more omega-3-fatty acid amino acid salts, and with a coating comprising shellac, which provides a delayed release of the omega-3 -fatty acid amino acid salts in the upper intestine.
- the present invention accordingly relates in a first aspect to an enteric coated nutraceutical or pharmaceutical solid oral dosage form comprising a core with a nutraceutical or pharmaceutical active ingredient and an enteric coating wherein the enteric coating comprises shellac and wherein the nutraceutical or pharmaceutical active ingredient comprises one or more omega-3 fatty acid amino acid salts.
- a food grade or pharma grade shellac it is preferred to use a food grade or pharma grade shellac. While not excluding other grades of shellac, a preferred type is dewaxed shellac, which is usually refined using a solvent extraction process. For production of light-colored grades, activated carbon is used followed by an additional filtration step to remove the activated carbon. The solvent is removed afterwards by evaporation in a thin film evaporator and recovered. The resin is then drawn to a thin film, which typically breaks into flakes after cooling.
- Omega-3 fatty acids which may be present individually or in any preferred combination in a solid oral dosage form according to the invention, comprise for example a-linolenic acid (ALA) 18:3 (n-3) (cis,cis,cis-9, 12, 15-octadecatrienoic acid), stearidonic acid (SDA) 18:4 (n-3) (all-cis-6,9, 12, 15,- octadecatetraenoic acid), eicosatrienoic acid (ETE) 20:3 (n-3) (all-c; ' s-1 1 , 14, 17-eicosatrienoic acid), eicosatetraenoic acid (ETA) 20:4 (n-3) (all-cis-8, 1 1 ,14, 17-eicosatetraenoic acid),
- ALA a-linolenic acid
- SDA stearidonic acid
- ETE eicosatrienoic acid
- ETA eicosatetraeno

- tetracosapentaenoic acid 24:5 (n-3) all-cis-9, 12, 15, 18,21- tetracosapentaenoic acid
- tetracosahexaenoic acid nisinic acid) 24:6 (n-3) (all-cis- 6,9, 12, 15, 18,21-tetracosahexaenoic acid).
- Polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acids may be obtained from any suitable starting material, which may in addition be processed with any suitable method.
- Typical starting materials include all parts of fish carcasses, vegetables and other plants, and material from microbial fermentation or fermentation of algae.
- Typical processing methods for such starting materials are, inter alia, steps for crude oil extraction, such as extraction and separation of the starting materials and steps for refining crude oils, such as deposition and degumming, deacidification, bleaching and deodourizing (cf. e.g. "EFSA Scientific Opinion on Fish Oil for Human Consumption").
- Further processing methods include, inter alia, steps for the at least partial conversion of omega-3 fatty acid esters to the corresponding free omega-3 fatty acids or inorganic salts thereof.
- the source for omega-3 fatty acids is chosen from at least one of the following: fish oil, squid oil, krill oil, linseed oil, borage seed oil, algal oil, hemp seed oil, rapeseed oil, flaxseed oil, canola oil, soybean oil.
- Omega-3 fatty acids may also be obtained by cleaving the omega-3 fatty acid esters and subsequent removal of the alcohols previously attached as part of the ester from compositions, which consist principally of omega-3 fatty acid esters.
- the ester cleavage is preferably carried out under basic conditions. Methods for ester cleavage are well known from the prior art.
- omega-3 fatty acids and amino acids are dissolved in the digestive tract, wherein the free omega-3 fatty acids are released which are suitable for direct absorption by the body, and prior chemical or enzymatic cleavage is no longer required, such as is the case in the omega-3 triglycerides in fish oil or the omega-3 fatty acid ethyl esters prepared therefrom.
- the omega-3 fatty acids are only released in the small intestine, which demonstrably is the actual location in the body for the absorption of fatty acids from the digestive tract, such that the omega-3 fatty acids are available for immediate absorption in the preferred free form.
- the effects such as reflux or unpleasant fishy regurgitation often usually linked with the absorption of omega-3 fatty acid oils by the too early release of the omega-3 fatty acid oils in the stomach is thus avoided.
- the enteric coating further comprises an anionic polymer, preferably pectin or sodium alginate.
- the use of pectin is preferred. It is further preferred that the ratio between shellac and the anionic polymer in the enteric coating is between more than 80:20 (more than 80% of shellac in the mixture of shellac and anionic polymer) and 100:0, preferably between 81 : 19 and 99: 1 , more preferably between 85: 15 and 95:5.. In a more preferred embodiment, the ratio between shellac and the anionic polymer in the enteric coating is between 90:10 and 95:5.
- the enteric coating further comprises one or more plasticizers chosen from glycerol, mineral oil, triacetin, polyethylene glycol, glyceryl monostearate, mono- acetylated triglycerides and polysorbate.
- Glycerol is the most preferred plasticizer due to its universal status as food plasticizer. Glycerol may be used in an amount ranging from 3% to 30% by weight (relating to the shellac-polymer).
- the enteric coating further comprises one or more pigments such as titanium dioxide and talc.
- the solid oral dosage form further comprises a subcoat, which is selected from the following: cellulose-derived polymers, selected from hydroxyl propyl methyl cellulose (HPMC), methyl hydroxyl ethyl cellulose (MHEC), ethyl cellulose (EC), hydroxyl propyl cellulose (HPC) and sodium carboxy methyl cellulose, polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), polyethylene glycols (PEG), acrylate polymers, maize starch and mixtures thereof.
- the subcoat builds an additional coating layer, which has additional taste- and/or odour-masking effects.
- the solid oral dosage form further comprises an additional layer comprising one or more pigments, natural colours, flavours, sweeteners and/or cyclodextrins.
- the amino acid(s) is/are selected from basic amino acids, preferably from lysine, arginine, ornithine and mixtures of the same.
- the omega-3 fatty acid(s) is/are selected from eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), docosapentaenoic acid (DPA) and mixtures of the same.
- EPA eicosapentaenoic acid
- DHA docosahexaenoic acid
- DPA docosapentaenoic acid
- Omega-3 fatty acid amino acid salts are known in principle. As described at the outset, these may be obtained as fine, virtually colourless powders by precipitation from aqueous or aqueous alcoholic media or by spray-drying, which differ advantageously from the waxy consistency of these substances described hitherto. In a preferred configuration, the omega-3 fatty acid amino acid salts are obtained by precipitation from aqueous or alcoholic aqueous solution.
- the enteric coated solid oral dosage form is characterized in that the release of the omega-3 fatty acid amino acid salts is less than 10% by weight of the content of omega-3 fatty acid amino acid salt when an in vitro dissolution testing for the solid dosage form is performed in 0.1 N hydrochloric acid for a period of 2 hours.
- Dissolution testing is an in vitro method that characterizes how an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) or an active food ingredient (AFI) is extracted out of a solid dosage form and indicates the efficiency of in vivo dissolution.
- API active pharmaceutical ingredient
- AFI active food ingredient
- the specific dissolution technique employed was the industry standard dissolution testing methodology United States Pharmacopoeia (USP) Apparatus 1 basket.
- USP United States Pharmacopoeia
- the enteric coated solid oral dosage form is characterized in that the release of the omega-3 fatty acid amino acid salt is more than 60% by weight of the content of omega-3 fatty acid amino acid salt when an in vitro dissolution testing for the solid dosage form is performed in a solution with a pH between pH 4 and pH 6, preferably in a solution with a pH between pH 4 and pH 5 for a period of 3 hours.
- the enteric coated solid dosage form comprises small particulates.
- Small particulates also known as pellets in the pharmaceutical industry can be defined as small, free-flowing, spherical particulates with a relatively narrow size range usually between 0.1 and 2.0 mm and a low porosity (about 10%).
- the multiparticulate dosage forms offers many important pharmacological and technological advantages over conventional single-unit dosage forms. They can be divided into desired dose strength without formulation or process changes and can be blended to deliver incompatible bioactive agents simultaneously and/or provide different release profiles at different sites in the gastrointestinal tract. When taken orally, pharmaceutical pellets disperse freely in the gastrointestinal tract and maximize drug absorption (due to the higher surface area) and minimize local irritation of the mucosa by certain irritating drugs. Thereby, versatile formulation designs are possible, which can easily be adapted to the different patient requirements.
- the coating of the small particulates is at least 2.0 mg/cm 2 .
- the weight gain I (mg/cm 2 ), which is achieved by coating of the pellets is calculated according to the following formula: wherein % Coating weight [w/w] corresponds to the percentage weight gain due to the coating layer (relating to the weight of the pellet core), W [mg] is the weight of the pellet core and A [mm 2 ] is the surface area of the pellet core.
- the enteric coated solid oral dosage form is stable at a temperature of 40 °C and a relative humidity of 75% for at least 3 months. After storage under these conditions for three months, the dissolution profile is similar to the dissolution profile of a freshly prepared solid oral dosage form.
- the present invention relates to a food supplement or pharmaceutical product comprising one or more enteric coated small particulates according to the present invention.
- the dosage form of the food supplement or pharmaceutical product is selected from one of the following: Multiple-Unit Pellet System (MUPS) tablets, capsules, sachets, sprinkles, gummies and straw formulations.
- MUPS Multiple-Unit Pellet System
- the dosage form further comprises one or more additional active ingredients selected from anthocyanins, vitamins, minerals, fiber, fatty acids, amino acids and proteins. Further nutraceutically acceptable active ingredients may also be included in the dosage form.
- the present invention relates to the use of a solid dosage form according to the invention as a food supplement or pharmaceutical product.
- pharmaceutical products may comprise, in addition to the omega-3 fatty acids described here, both pharmaceutically acceptable auxiliaries and
- statins such as statins, anti-hypertensive agents, antidiabetics, antidementia agents, antidepressants, anti-obesity agents, appetite suppressants and agents to improve memory and/or cognitive function.
