Description
Title: TETRACYCLINE MODIFIED RELEASE DELIVERY SYSTEM Inventors: Victor
Pevzner, Marina Ruderman, and Avi Avramoff
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a delivery system for tetracyclines, and more particularly to a modified release system providing delayed release and controlled rapid release delivery.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Minocycline, 7-dimethylamino-6-deoxy-6-demethyltetracycline, is a semisynthetic antibiotic, with a spectrum of activity similar to that of other tetracyclines, which primarily involves inhibition of bacterial protein synthesis by binding to the 30S subunit of the ribosome. Minocycline is effective against a wide variety of pathogenic microorganisms, such as -hemolytic streptococci, nonhemolytic streptococci, gram-negative bacilli, rickettsiae, spirochetes, Mycoplasma, and Chlamydia, including Haemophilus, Brucella, Listeria monocytogenes, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, campylobacter, Vibrio cholerae, Yersinia pestis, Bacteroides, Enterobacter, E. colt, Klebsiella, Shigella. Strep viridans group, Strep pneumoniae, Strep. pyogenes, Chlamydia, Clostriduim, and Treponema pallidum.
Minocycline has been found to be more effective than other tetracyclines against tetracycline resistant staphylococci.
Minocycline and methods for its preparation are described in US 3,148,212 and US 3,226,436.
Uses of tetracyclines include treatment and prevention of acne, respiratory tract infections such as bronchitis, pneumonia and sinusitis, and infections of skin, genital, and urinary systems.
Minocycline hydrochloride is available in conventional capsule and tablet dosage forms, as well as in a modified release dosage form comprising quick release and delayed release pellets.
EP0310814B1 to American Cyanamid teaches use of spherical granules comprising tetracycline compounds, including minocycline, for controlled release in the intestine. The granules are in the shape of spheres, having a diameter in the range of from 0.1 to 2.5 mm.
Each granule has a very thin coating of polymer, which resists erosion in the stomach but erodes rapidly in the intestine. By preventing release in the stomach, nausea and dizziness following oral administration are avoided. The granules are filled into the capsules or compressed into tablets.
s EP0418565BI to American Cyanamid describes a delivery system for minocycline, comprising quick release granules which release minocycline in a medium having pH less than 3.9, and pH sensitive polymer coated spherical granules, releasing minocycline in a medium having pH from 4.0 to 7.5. Both the quick release granules and the enteric coated granules are taught as having diameters in the range of from 0.1 to 2.5 mm.
0 EP0558913BI to American Cyanamid describes pulsatile, once-a-day delivery systems for minocycline, providing a therapeutically effective blood concentration for a sustained period of time of up to about twenty four hours. The delivery system comprises quick release granules, adapted to release minocycline in a medium with pH less than 3.9; coated spherical slow release granules comprising excipients with minocycline; and a uniform pH sensitive coating which is a blend of two polymers, where at least one polymer is non-pH sensitive and the other is pH sensitive. The quick release granules provide a first pulse of minocycline in the stomach. The coated granules release a small amount of minocycline in the stomach, with the major part released in the intestine. Again, both types of granules have diameters in the range of from 0.1 to 2.5 mm.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The background art does not teach or suggest a two-tablet encapsulated modified release delivery system for tetracyclines, comprising a quick release tablet and a delayed rapid release tablet, wherein both types of tablet have diameters greater than 3 mm.
2s The present invention overcomes this deficiency of the prior art by providing a two tablet dosage system comprising: a. at least one quick release tablet, comprising an effective antibacterial amount of a tetracycline compound or a non-toxic acid addition salt or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; an effective amount of at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient; and optionally a substantially uniform polymer coating on said tablet; and b. at least one delayed release tablet, comprising an effective antibacterial amount of a tetracycline compound or a non-toxic acid addition salt or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; an effective amount of at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient; and a substantially uniform pH sensitive coating on said tablet, characterized in that said quick release tablet and said delayed release tablet each have a diameter greater than about 3 mm.
It should be noted that the terms "tetracycline compound" or "a tetracycline" refer to any molecule of the tetracycline class, as described in greater detail below.
Optionally and preferably, the tablet diameters are in the range of from about 3 mm to about 5.5 mm. More preferably, the diameters are in the range of from about 4.5 to about 5.5mm. Most preferably, the quick release tablet has a diameter in the range of form about 5.0 to about 5.2 mm, and the delayed release tablet has a diameter in the range of from about 5.1 to about 5.4 mm. Optionally, the tablet diameter may be about as large as the capsule 0 diameter, which is optionally from about 4 to about 10 man; preferably, as noted above, the tablet diameter is somewhat smaller than the capsule diameter. Also optionally, the tablet diameter is at least about 3 mm.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
The invention is herein described, by way of example only, with reference to the accompanying drawing, wherein: FIG. I shows in vitro dissolution of Table I formulation according to the present invention; and FIG. 2 shows mean in vivo plasma concentration-time curves for the formulation of the present invention as compared to a reference preparation. 2s
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
The present invention provides a once-daily modified release formulation of a a tetracycline compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt, e.g. hydrochloric, sulfonic, trichloroacetic acid salts, and the like, preferably the hydrochloric acid addition salts. Optionally and preferably, the tetracycline compound comprises minocycline. A preferred embodiment of the present invention provides a capsule comprising at least two types of tablet, wherein a first tablet type provides quick release, and a second tablet type provides delayed release. The first tablet type is optionally enteric coated, preferably film coated, and the second tablet type is also optionally enteric coated. It should be noted that although the present invention is mainly described with regard to minocycline as the preferred embodiment, this is for the purposes of discussion only and is not meant to be limiting in any way, as optionally any tetracycline may be used, as previously described.
The quick and substantially complete release of the active ingredient from the quick s release component is such that about 50-70 percent of the total amount of the minocycline in the formulation, is released in less than about 90 minutes, and preferably less than about 60 minutes, in a medium having a pH of less than about 3.9, and, preferably in a range of from about 1.0 to about 2.5, such as in the human stomach. Any optional polymer coating of the quick release component is therefore specifically rapidly and substantially erodible or 0 dissolvable to permit these conditions to be met; preferably, the enteric coating is a pH sensitive polymer. This provides a first pulse of release of the active ingredient, such as minocycline, preferably in the stomach. This quick initial release allows therapeutic plasma drug levels to be rapidly attained, such drug levels being at least that amount determined by in vivo clinical evaluation or in vitro microbiological assay to treat successfully infections caused by the invading organism or organisms.
The substantially complete release of delayed release component is such that about 30-50 percent of the total amount of the active ingredient is released in less than about 90 minutes in a medium having a pH in the range of from about 4.0 to about 7.5, as in the human upper intestinal tract and particularly in the duodenum/jejunem. Therefore, the pH sensitive polymer coating must be specifically rapidly and substantially completely credible or dissolvable to permit these conditions to be met.
Optionally and preferably, the pharmaceutical delivery system of the present invention contains from about 25 mg to about 400 mg of minocycline or non-toxic acid addition salt thereof and most preferably from about 80 mg to about 280 ma. Preferably, the 2s quick release component, the delayed release component, or both independently contain from about 20 to about 200 mg of minocycline.
Preferably, the system comprises a major proportion of coated or uncoatedquick release tablets, and a minor proportion of delayed release tablets. More preferably, the proportion of quick release tablets is from about 43 to about 73 parts by weight, and the proportion of delayed release tablets is from about 27 to about 57 parts by weight, based on parts by weight of quick release and delayed release tablets combined.
Most preferably, the ratio is from about 58:42 by weight of quick release tablets delayed release tablets, based on 100 parts by weight of quick release and delayed release tablets combined. The use of a higher ratio of quick release tablets in proportion to delayed release tablets is believed to result in a higher absorption of minocycline because minocycline is preferentially absorbed in the duodenum and jejunurn, although without wishing to be limited by a single hypothesis. Cores
The core of each of the quick release tablet and the delayed release tablet has a diameter which is greater than about 3 mm. Optionally and preferably, the tablet diameters are in the range of from about 3.0 mm to about 5.5 mm. More preferably, the diameters are in the range of from about 4.5 to about 5.5 mm. Most preferably, the quick release tablet has a 0 diameter in the range of from about 5.0 to about 5.2 mm, with thickness preferably in the range of from about 5.0 to about 5.6 mm.

The cores of the quick release and enteric-coated tablets comprise a tetracycline or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, together with excipients. More preferably, the tetracycline is minocycline, most preferably minocycline hydrochloride.
Any conventional excipients used in the pharmaceutical and chemical field that are compatible with the active ingredient may optionally be used, such as binders, diluents, colorants, disintegrating agents, lubricants, glidants etc. Illustrative non-limting excipients suitable for use herein include but are not limited to, microcrystalline cellulose, povidone, croscarmellose sodium, magnesium stearate, red iron (ferric) oxide, yellow iron (fernc) oxide, silica colloidal anhydrous, and optionally mixtures of any of the foregoing. The excipients are preferably the same for both cores, optionally with the exception of colorants such as red or yellow iron oxide for example.
The amounts of minocycline and excipients which comprise the core of quick release and delayed-release tablets can vary broadly but will usually be in the range of from about 10 to about 80 parts by weight of minocycline and from about 20 to about 90 parts by weight of excipient based upon 100 parts by weight of minocycline and excipient combined.

Alternatively or additionally, the glidants may be selected from the group comprising tribasic calcium phosphate, calcium silicate, powdered cellulose, magnesium silicate, 0 magnesium trisilicate, silicon dioxide, starch, talc, or a combination thereof.
According to other preferred embodiments of the present invention, the core may further comprise a binder. More preferably, the binder is povidone, which most preferably is present in an amount of about 5%. Alternatively or additionally, the binder may be selected from the group comprising starch, hydroxypropyl cellulose, h,vpromellose, low molecular weight carboxy methyl cellulose, carboxy methyl cellulose sodium, ethylcellulose, gelatin, polyethylene oxide, acacia, dextrin, magnesium aluminium silicate, polymethacrylates, alginic acid, carrageenan, cellulose acetate phthalate, ceratonia, chitosan, sucrose, cottonseed oil, dextrates, dextrose, glucose, glyceryl behenate, guar gum, hydrogenated vegetable oil, hydroxyethyl cellulose, hydroxyethylmethyl cellulose, maltodextrine, maltose, m ethyl cellulo se, mi crocrysall ine cellulose, poloxamer, polydextrose, sodium alginate, steari c acid, sunflower oil, zein, or a combination thereof.

Coatings The quick release tablet is uncoated, or optionally coated with a film forming polymer. The film-forming polymer, if used, can vary widely in type, and amount, which correlates to film thickness. It is important, however, that any film forming polymer is either somewhat erodible in gastric juice and/or is used in an ultra-thin layer or layers to permit release of an entire amount of tetracycline compound in the stomach, the importance of which has been set forth above. Examples of film forming polymers which are suitable for this purpose include sugar, methyl cellulose, ethylcellulose, hydroxyethylcellulose, 2s hydroxypropyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose phthalate or a combination thereof. Some of these coatings are pH sensitive as described below, but they are thin layer coatings, which are destroyed in the stomach. Such a thin layer of an enteric coating would not be expected to cause any undesirable delay in the release. The thin layer of enteric coating is used to obtain better resistance of the tablet and to improve convenience of handling during the encapsulation process, and so forth.
Although from about 1 weight percent to less than about 10 weight percent of film content based on the total weight of the film coated tablets is suitable for most readily gastric juice erodible polymers, it is preferred to use from about 1 weight percent to about 5 weight percent of any film in order to permit the release of the entire amount of tetracycline compound in the stomach.
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the film coating comprises Opadry, which most preferably is present in an amount of from about 1 to about 5% of the s core.
The pH sensitive coating for the delayed rapid release tablet is optionally and preferably hypromellose, because this polymer degrades at relatively lower pH values in comparison with other pH sensitive polymers such as methacrylic polymers for example. The ratio of coating to core is optionally and preferably in a range of from about 11% to about 0 18%. Alternatively or additionally other coatings may optionally be selected from the group comprising carbomers, cellulose acetate phtalate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate, polymethacrylates, polyvinyl acetate phthalate, zein, carnauba wax, guar gum, shellac or a combination thereof. Upon reaching the duodenum/jejunem, the pH-sensitive polymer dissolves, and quick, complete release of minocycline occurs.
Is The enteric coating may optionally further comprise a plasticizer, which is preferably triethyl citrate, which is most preferably present in an amount 9. 1% of coating. Alternatively and additionally, the plasticizer may optionally be selected from the group comprising dibutyl sebacate, polyethylene glycol,propylene glycol, dibutyl phthalate, tributyl citrate, acetylated monoglyceride, acetyl tributyl citrate, diacetin, triacetin, dimethyl phthalate, diethyl phthalate, benzyl benzoate, butyl and/or glycol esters or fatty acids, refined mineral oils, oleic acid, castor oil, corn oil, camphor, acetyl monoglyceride, cellulose acetate phthalate, chlorbutanol, dextrin, diethyl phthalate, glycerin monostearate, hypromellose phthalate, mannitol, palmitic acid, polymethacrylate, polyvinyl acetate phthalate, stearic acid, triethanolamine, lanolin alcohols, glycerol and sorbitol, or a combination thereof.
2s The enteric coating may optionally further comprise a wetting agent, optionally and more preferably for enhancing degradation of the coating, which is preferably sodium lauryl sulfate, which is most preferably present in an amount of 1-3-% of the coating. Alternatively and additionally the wetting agent may optionally be selected from the group comprising: benzalkoniurn chloride, benzethronium chloride, docusate sodium, hypromellose, poloxamer, polyethylene alkyl ethers, polyoxyethylene castor oil derivatives, polyoxyethylene sorbitan fatty acid esters, polyoxyethylene stearates, sorbitan esters, or a combination thereof.
The enteric coating may optionally further comprise an anti-adhesion/anticaking agent to prevent adhesion of the tablets during the coating process. This agent is preferably talc, which is most preferably present in an amount of from about l to about 3% of the coating. Alternatively and additionally the anti-adhesion/anti-caking agent may optionally be selected from the group comprising: tribasic calcium phosphate, calcium silicate, silica colloidal anhydrous, magnesium silicate/trisilicate, or a combination thereof.
s Process According to a preferred embodiment, the cores of both the slow release and the delayed rapid release tablets are prepared by granulation. The process comprises preparation of a solution of Povidone in water, and granulation of a mixture of minocycline hydrochloride, microcrystalline cellulose, croscarmellose sodium and colorants. The 0 granulate is dried in conventional equipment and milled. Preferably it is dried in a conventional fluidizing system to a low moisture level, e.g. , about 3 to about 7 percent.
Alternatively, other techniques can be used, such as dry mix for example.
Optionally and preferably croscarmellose sodium, anhydrous colloidal silica and magnesium stearate are then added.
Two types of tablets are compressed from the final mixture.
The hard shell capsules used in the present invention are generally comprised of gelatin, water and optionally, FD&C colorants, opacifying agents such as titanium oxide, sulfur dioxide to prevent any decomposition or a combination of any of the foregoing. They generally comprise two sections, one slipping over the other, completely surrounding the no filling.
The soft shell capsules used in the present invention are generally a soft, globular, gelatin shell somewhat thicker than the shell of the hard shell capsule. The gelatin is usually plasticized by the addition of glycerin, sorbitol, or a similar polyol. They may also contain a preservative to prevent the growth of fungi, and/or one or more of such optional ingredients as colorants, water and opacifying agents, for example.

The results are shown in Figure 1. The method for determining dissolution was performed as follows.
lo Each of six minocycline tablets according to the present invention was inserted into individual dissolution cell each of which contained 900 ml HCI (0.1 N). After one hour, the dissolution medium was changed to 900 ml buffer USP pH 6.8 for two hours. The sample was stirred with a VanKel basket stirrer (Van Kel Inc., USA) at 900 RPM. Samples were automatically drawn from each dissolution cell to test tubes every 15 minutes as shown.
is Samples were analyzed by a W (ultraviolet) light detection device. The amount of drug released was calculated according to a standard set of calculations that are known in the art.
PART III - Bioavailabilitv Study This Example describes a bioequivalence study of two Minocycline 100 mg MR formulations after multiple dose administration in healthy male volunteers.
A bioequivalence study was performed in order to assess the relative bioavailability of the test product Minocycline 100 mg MR capsules of Dexcel Ltd. (the formulation shown in Table 1 was used) in comparison tothe reference product Minocin MR 100 mg capsules of Cyanamid of Great Britain after multiple dose administration. The study was designed as monocentric, open, randomized, multiple dose, two-period crossover study in healthy volunteers with a wash-out period of 16 days between the last dose in period 1 and the first dose in period 2, such that each volunteer served as his own control. Twenty six healthy, male volunteers were planned for and concluded the study.
At each period, a total of 6 capsules of either formulation were administered once daily to fasting volunteers on 6 consecutive days. Blood samples were withdrawn before each daily administration and at the following times: O.S, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, ,4.5, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 and 24 hours after the last dose on day 6 in each period.
Plasma concentrations of Minocycline were determined using HPLC analytical method with UV detection.
s For each volunteer-period and for each analyte, the main pharmacokinetic parameter, AUC, was computed from the plasma concentration-time curve using the trapezoidal method from zero to 24 hours after the sixth administration.
The minimum (Css-min) and maximum (Css-max) steady state plasma concentrations, and the time to maximum concentration (Tmax) were observed directly from the curves.
0 The peak to trough fluctuation (PTF) expressed as a percentage was computed as [(Css-max - Css-min)/Css-average], and the swing expressed as a percentage was computed as [(Css-max - Css-min)/Css-min].
