Definitions
- the present invention relates to intravenous compositions comprising lacosamide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof which have reduced impurities and enhanced stability.
- Lacosamide is an anticonvulsant compound approved for the adjunctive treatment, as well as, conversion to monotherapy and monotherapy treatment of partial-onset seizures and neuropathic pain. It selectively enhances slow inactivation of voltage-gated sodium channels without affecting fast inactivation, thereby stabilizing hyperexcitable neuronal membranes.
- Inactivation only occurs in neurons firing action potentials; this means that drugs that modulate fast inactivation selectively reduce the firing in active cells. Slow inactivation is similar but does not produce complete blockade of voltage gated sodium channels, with both activation and inactivation occurring over hundreds of milliseconds or more. Lacosamide makes this inactivation happen at less depolarized membrane potentials. This means that lacosamide only affects neurons which are depolarized or active for long periods of time, typical of neurons at the focus of epilepsy.
- Formula 1 There is lacosamide immediate release formulation licensed in the US and Europe in the form of immediate release tablets, oral solutions and intravenous injection solutions under the brand name Vimpat ® by UCB. Immediate release tablets are currently commercially available in strengths of 50, 100, 150 and 200 mg of lacosamide.
- the oral dosage forms are not suitable because of their relatively slow onset of action. Instead, intravenous solutions enabling instant onset following the injection can be applied during the seizure itself.
- the main object of the present invention is to obtain pharmaceutical compositions comprising lacosamide eliminating all aforesaid problems and bringing additional advantages to the relevant prior art.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide pharmaceutical compositions of lacosamide with high purity.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide pharmaceutical compositions of lacosamide with high stability and long shelf-life.
- a further object of the present invention is to provide pharmaceutical compositions of lacosamide for parenteral administration which are in the form of solution.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide pharmaceutical compositions of lacosamide which are suitable for intravenous administration.
- the present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for parenteral administration comprising lacosamide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as active agent, wherein the pH value of the composition is between 3.5 and 5.0.
- the pH value of the composition is between 3.7 and 4.5.
- the pH value of the composition is between 3.9 and 4.2.
- the composition subjected to the invention is in the form of a solution for intravenous injection.
- the amount of lacosamide is between 0.5 - 90.0% by weight of the total solution. In the most preferred embodiment, the amount of lacosamide is 10 mg per 1 ml. of the total composition.
- An intravenous solution should be clear, colorless, sterile. Therefore, it is important to choose suitable excipients and to adjust the optimum pH range to achieve enhanced stability and purity for the intravenous formulations of lacosamide.
- the composition comprises at least one tonicity agent which is selected from the group comprising sodium chloride, propylene glycol, dextrose, glycerin, glycine, glycerol, sucrose, mannitol, sorbitol, potassium chloride, or mixtures thereof.
- the use of a tonicity agent in the composition is essential, especially for the parenteral dosage forms in a way to make the composition isotonic with body fluids.
- the amount of the tonicity agent is between 0.1 -20%, preferably 0.1 -5% by weight of the total composition.
- the composition comprises one tonicity agent which is sodium chloride.
- the composition further comprises at least one buffer solution to reach the pH values providing improved stability of the pharmaceutical composition subjected to the invention.
- this buffer solution is selected from a group which does not give a chemical reaction with lacosamide and which does not cause impurities in intravenous solution, accordingly.
- the buffer solution comprises at least one acidic agent.
- Acidic agent is preferably selected from the group comprising hydrochloric acid, acetic acid, tartaric acid, ascorbic acid, malic acid, citric acid, formic acid, adipic acid, acetylsalicylic acid, nicotinic acid, benzoic acid, phosphoric acid, acid salts (amino acid hydrochlorides, sodium dihydrogen citrate, disodium hydrogen citrate, sodium acid phosphate) or mixtures thereof.
- the buffer solution comprises one acidic agent which is hydrochloric acid.
- the amount of hydrochloric acid is arranged to adjust the pH value of the total composition to the range of 3.5 - 5, preferably 3.7 - 4.5, more preferably 3.9 - 4.2.
- the composition comprises;
- the below given formulations can be used in the lacosamide solution for intravenous injection subjected to the invention. These examples are not limiting the scope of the present invention and should be considered under the light of the foregoing detailed disclosure.
- the pharmaceutical composition mentioned above is prepared by following these steps:
