Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an orally disintegrating tablet formulation comprising sitagliptin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient. Further, the present invention provides a method for the preparation of said orally disintegrating tablet.
  • Diabetes mellitus is a group of disorders of carbohydrate metabolism in which the action of insulin is diminished or absent through altered secretion, decreased insulin activity or a combination of both factors.
  • Type 1 and Type 2 There are two main types of diabetes; Type 1 and Type 2:
  • Type 1 diabetes occurs because the insulin-producing cells of the pancreas (beta cells) are damaged. In Type 1 diabetes, the pancreas makes little or no insulin, so sugar cannot get into the body's cells for use as energy. People with Type 1 diabetes must use insulin injections to control their blood glucose.
  • Type 2 diabetes the pancreas makes insulin, but it either doesn't produce enough, or the insulin does not work properly. This diabetes occurs most often in people who are over 40 years old and overweight. Type 2 diabetes may sometimes be controlled with a combination of diet, weight management, and exercise. However, treatment also may include oral glucose-lowering medications or insulin injections.
  • Sitagliptin is indicated as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. It is an oral antihyperglycemic of the dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor class.
  • DPP-4 inhibitors work by blocking the action of DPP-4, an enzyme which destroys the hormone incretin.
  • DPP-4 dipeptidyl peptidase-4
  • GLP-1 glucagon-like peptide-1
  • GIP glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide
  • Sitagliptin works by binding to DPP-4 and preventing it from breaking down the GLP-1 and GIP. This increases the levels of these hormones in the body and so increases their effect on controlling blood sugar.
  • the chemical name of sitagliptin is (R) -4-oxo-4- [3- (trifluoromethyl) -5,6-dihydro [1 ,2,4] triazolo [4,3-a] pyrazin-7 (8H)-yl]-1- (2,4,5-trifluorophenyl) butan-2-amine), and the chemical structure of sitagliptin is shown in Formula 1.
  • the film-coated tablets of Sitagliptin named as Januvia ® are being marketed by Merck in the USA.
  • the Januvia ® tablet contains 32.13, 64.25, or 128.5 mg of sitagliptin phosphate monohydrate, which is equivalent to 25, 50, or 100 mg, respectively, of free base.
  • Conventional tablet dosage forms constitute a preferred route of administration but certain groups of patients including geriatric, bed-ridden, uncooperative, nauseated, on reduced water intake, and patients having dysphagia, difficulty in swallowing, encounter problems while taking these dosage forms. Moreover, patients while travelling may have little or no access to water, limiting the use of conventional tablet dosage forms. As antidiabetic drugs are prescribed chronically, such a problem could lead to a high level of patient non- compliance.
  • orally disintegrating tablet formulations provide the best alternative over conventional tablet dosage forms.
  • Orally disintegrating tablet compositions which rapidly disintegrate on contact with saliva or in a small amount of water, offer increased convenience and ease of administration with the potential to achieve better patient compliance. Especially, it provides extra advantage for geriatric, and neurodegenerative disease patients who have difficulty in swallowing conventional tablets or capsules. It will be easy and fast to use when the patient needs it.
  • the main objective of the invention is to realize a tablet comprising sitagliptin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof which can be taken by oral route without needing water, so it provides easy use for the patient.
  • an orally disintegrating tablet form is used. In this way, a form with both the easy use for the patient and the desired dissolution profile is provided.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide the desired stability and a good taste for the patient's easy use.
  • an orally disintegrating tablet formulation comprises sitagliptin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.
  • the formulation of the invention was designed without having to compromise on stability to achieve the rapidly absorbed and desired dissolution rate which was linked to the surprisingly coordinated effect of using sitagliptin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as a source of sitagliptin and using the orally disintegrating tablet.
  • the present invention provides orally disintegrating tablet of sitagliptin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof that will rapidly disintegrate within three minutes. These compositions have an acceptable taste, offer a pleasant mouth feel, and leave minimal residue in the mouth after administration.
  • the present invention further provides processes for preparing said orally disintegrating tablet. It also provides a method of treating diabetes by administering said orally disintegrating tablet.
  • the amount of sitagliptin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is 20.0% to 50.0% by weight in the formulation.
  • the amount of sitagliptin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is 25.0% to 45.0% or 27.0% to 40.0% or 28.0% to 37.0% by weight in the formulation.
  • a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of sitagliptin is sitagliptin phosphate or sitagliptin hydrochloride or sitagliptin malate.
  • a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of sitagliptin is sitagliptin malate.
  • the orally disintegrating tablet formulation of sitagliptin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof needs to be adapted in particular by a careful excipient selection give a suitable porous structure with suitable disintegrating time and high stability.
  • the formulation comprises at least one the pharmaceutically acceptable excipients which are selected from diluents, disintegrants, glidants, lubricants, sweeteners or mixtures thereof.
