“FORMULAZIONI INALATORIE IN FORMA DI SOLUZIONI O POLVERI SECCHE, PER LA RIMOZIONE DELLE SECREZIONI MUCOSE DALL’APPARATO RESPIRATORIO†⠀ œINHALATORY FORMULATIONS IN THE FORM OF SOLUTIONS OR DRY POWDERS, FOR THE REMOVAL OF MUCOUS SECRETIONS FROM THE RESPIRATORY SYSTEMâ €
La presente invenzione riguarda formulazioni inalatorie in forma di soluzioni ipertoniche o di polveri secche contenenti un agente osmolarizzante e acido ialuronico di origine biotecnologica a basso peso molecolare o suoi sali. The present invention relates to inhalation formulations in the form of hypertonic solutions or dry powders containing an osmolarizing agent and low molecular weight hyaluronic acid of biotechnological origin or its salts.
Stato della tecnica State of the art
La clearance muco ciliare à ̈ sicuramente il principale sistema di protezione delle vie aeree. Il muco deve però avere caratteristiche ideali per potere svolgere a pieno la sua importante funzione di “intrappolamento†delle sostanze estranee che si sono introdotte nelle vie aeree. Ciliary mucus clearance is definitely the main airway protection system. The mucus, however, must have ideal characteristics to be able to fully carry out its important function of â € œtrapâ € of foreign substances that have entered the airways.
In differenti patologie dell’apparato respiratorio il ristagno delle secrezioni nelle vie aeree e la loro conseguente disidratazione determina l’instaurarsi di condizioni predisponenti alla colonizzazione batterica e quindi alla evoluzione ingravescente della patologia in atto. La rimozione delle secrezioni muco purulente rappresenta un obiettivo farmacologico di primaria importanza. In different pathologies of the respiratory system, the stagnation of secretions in the airways and their consequent dehydration determines the establishment of conditions predisposing to bacterial colonization and therefore to the worsening evolution of the disease in progress. The removal of purulent mucus secretions represents a pharmacological goal of primary importance.
In diverse malattie genetiche, quali ad esempio la fibrosi cistica o nella Sindrome di Kartagener, questo ristagno di muco disidratato nelle vie aeree, determina un rapido deterioramento della funzione polmonare, deterioramento che può portare a precoce morte. In altre patologie, come ad esempio la BPCO il ristagno delle secrezioni e la conseguente bronco ostruzione si verifica in una età più avanzata, ma può in ogni modo compromettere gravemente la funzione respiratoria. In various genetic diseases, such as cystic fibrosis or Kartagener's syndrome, this stagnation of dehydrated mucus in the airways leads to a rapid deterioration of lung function, which can lead to premature death. In other pathologies, such as COPD, the stagnation of secretions and the consequent bronchus obstruction occurs in an older age, but can in any way seriously compromise the respiratory function.
Anche nelle patologie acute di originali virale, quale una banale influenza, il ristagno delle secrezioni mucose sono frequentemente responsabili dell’evoluzione negativa del quadro respiratorio. Even in acute pathologies of viral origin, such as a trivial flu, the stagnation of mucous secretions are frequently responsible for the negative evolution of the respiratory picture.
Diversi farmaci mucolitici, con meccanismo muco-litico sono da anni impiegati. Tali farmaci agiscono depolimerizzando la mucina, grazie alla presenza di gruppi SH, riducendo così la viscosità delle secrezioni. Various mucolytic drugs with muco-lytic mechanisms have been used for years. These drugs act by depolymerizing the mucin, thanks to the presence of SH groups, thus reducing the viscosity of the secretions.
Altre molecole agiscono come muco cinetici accrescendo il volume di fluido nelle vie aeree e quindi inducendo la tosse facilitando così il distacco del muco dalle vie aeree. Other molecules act as mucus kinetics by increasing the volume of fluid in the airways and thus inducing cough, thus facilitating the detachment of mucus from the airways.
Infine sono da anni impiegati principi attivi come la bromexina e l’ambroxolo che stimolano la produzione di surfattante e quindi facilitano lo scorrimento del muco nelle vie aeree. Finally, active ingredients such as bromhexine and ambroxol have been used for years, which stimulate the production of surfactant and therefore facilitate the flow of mucus in the airways.
Questi farmaci muco attivi hanno un’efficacia però limitata a quadri di ostruzione di modesta entità e di evoluzione acuta, ma sono poco efficaci nelle malattie ove l’ostruzione bronchiale à ̈ più severa e soprattutto cronica. These mucus-active drugs have an efficacy, however, limited to modest obstruction and acute evolution, but are not very effective in diseases where bronchial obstruction is more severe and above all chronic.
Nella fibrosi cistica il mancato funzionamento della proteina di canale CFTR, deputata allo scambio ionico di Na e Cloro tra la cellula e l’ambiente extracellulare, determina una riduzione dello strato liquido periciliare che riveste la mucosa respiratoria. Questo strato liquido superficiale, mantenuto costante dall’acqua che entra ed esce dalla cellula seguendo il flusso degli ioni Na e Cl, à ̈ normalmente pari a circa 10 µM. In cystic fibrosis, the failure of the CFTR channel protein, responsible for the ionic exchange of Na and Chlorine between the cell and the extracellular environment, causes a reduction in the periciliary liquid layer that covers the respiratory mucosa. This superficial liquid layer, kept constant by the water that enters and exits the cell following the flow of the Na and Cl ions, is normally equal to about 10 µM.
Questo strato acquoso superficiale consente alle cilia dell’epitelio di muoversi completamente immerse nello strato liquido periciliare e di svolgere così pienamente il compito di rimuovere le secrezioni e tutto ciò che in esso à ̈ stato intrappolato per la eliminazione. Nei soggetti affetti da FC lo strato liquido periciliare à ̈ ridotto di oltre il 50% attestandosi sui 4 µM, questa riduzione di volume riduce la capacità delle cilia di muoversi adeguatamente e quindi riduce, sino ad annullare, il trasporto muco ciliare. This superficial aqueous layer allows the cilia of the epithelium to move completely immersed in the periciliary liquid layer and thus fully perform the task of removing secretions and everything that has been trapped in it for elimination. In subjects affected by CF the periciliary liquid layer is reduced by more than 50%, settling on 4 µM, this volume reduction reduces the ability of the cilia to move adequately and therefore reduces, to the point of canceling, the ciliary mucus transport.
A causa della riduzione della clearance muco ciliare vi à ̈ ristagno di muco nelle vie aeree conseguente disidratazione, colonizzazione batterica e sviluppo delle condizioni ideali per una colonizzazione cronica da parte della flora patogena soprattutto Gram -. Due to the reduction of ciliary mucus clearance there is stagnation of mucus in the airways resulting in dehydration, bacterial colonization and development of ideal conditions for chronic colonization by pathogenic flora especially Gram -.
La conseguente attivazione del sistema immunitario, l’impossibilità di eradicare la infezione batterica portano ad un processo flogistico a carico delle vie aeree e alla progressiva perdita di funzione respiratoria. The consequent activation of the immune system, the inability to eradicate the bacterial infection lead to an inflammatory process in the airways and to the progressive loss of respiratory function.
In altre patologie genetiche, ad esempio la DCP, le cause che portano al deficit di clearance possono essere diverse ma il risultato non à ̈ diverso da quello nella FC, infiammazione ed infezione cronica. In other genetic diseases, for example DCP, the causes leading to the clearance deficit may be different but the result is not different from that in CF, inflammation and chronic infection.
Caratterizza infatti l’evoluzione della FC, così come quella della DCP e della patologia cronico ostruttiva (BPCO), un marcato processo flogistico che si accompagna al quadro infettivo. In pratica in queste patologie s’instaura un ciclo vizioso noto come Ostruzione-Infezione-Infiammazione, ciclo vizioso in cui non à ̈ ancora oggi ben chiaro quale sia l’esatta sequenza ed in cui à ̈ chiara la progressiva auto alimentazione. In fact, it characterizes the evolution of CF, as well as that of DCP and chronic obstructive pathology (COPD), a marked inflammatory process that accompanies the infectious picture. In practice, a vicious cycle known as Obstruction-Infection-Inflammation is established in these pathologies, a vicious cycle in which it is still not clear what the exact sequence is and in which the progressive self-feeding is clear.
Da non molti anni alla terapia sistemica si à ̈ affiancata la terapia aerosolica ad esempio con antibiotici quali tobramicina, colimicina, ciprofloxacina, aztreonam e con muco attivi quali ad esempio Dornase alfa, un enzima in grado di frammentare il Dna contenuto nel muco riducendone quindi la viscosità . For not many years systemic therapy has been accompanied by aerosol therapy, for example with antibiotics such as tobramycin, colimycin, ciprofloxacin, aztreonam and with active mucus such as for example Dornase alfa, an enzyme capable of fragmenting the DNA contained in the mucus thus reducing its stickiness.
Il vantaggio di tale via di somministrazione à ̈ quello di raggiungere il sito interessato riducendo l’interessamento sistemico, fatto importante in considerazione della cronicità del trattamento e della tossicità intrinseca di molti dei farmaci utilizzati. The advantage of this route of administration is that of reaching the affected site by reducing systemic involvement, an important fact in consideration of the chronicity of the treatment and the intrinsic toxicity of many of the drugs used.
Tutte le molecole impiegate per via inalatoria sono potenzialmente a rischio per due motivi, possono favorire la comparsa di broncospasmo, possono essere irritanti per le vie aeree e quindi rischiare di vanificare la portata della loro azione farmacologica aggravando il quadro flogistico polmonare. Tale rischio non à ̈ legato solo al singolo principio attivo, ma anche alla formulazione in se stessa, alle sue caratteristiche chimico fisiche nonché alla presenza di eventuali eccipienti. All the molecules used by inhalation are potentially at risk for two reasons: they can favor the onset of bronchospasm, they can be irritating to the airways and therefore risk nullifying the extent of their pharmacological action by aggravating the pulmonary inflammatory picture. This risk is not linked only to the single active ingredient, but also to the formulation itself, to its chemical and physical characteristics as well as to the presence of any excipients.
La formulazione somministrabile per via aerosolica deve essere sterile per evitare il rischio di veicolare potenziali patogeni nelle vie aeree, deve avere un preciso range di pH, di osmolarità e deve dare origine a particelle di diametro aerodinamico medio inferiore ai 6 micron per potere raggiungere le vie aeree periferiche. The formulation that can be administered by aerosol must be sterile to avoid the risk of carrying potential pathogens into the airways, must have a precise range of pH, osmolarity and must give rise to particles with an average aerodynamic diameter of less than 6 microns in order to reach the airways. peripheral areas.
Tra i trattamenti più efficaci per facilitare la secrezione delle vie aeree à ̈ da tempo utilizzato il ricorso a soluzioni o polveri secche ad azione osmotica, quali soluzioni ipertoniche saline o mannitolo. Il principio di funzionamento di questi trattamenti à ̈ legato alla loro capacità di richiamare acqua nelle vie aeree favorendo il ripristinarsi di un film acquoso superficiale con conseguente ripristino della clearance muco ciliare. Among the most effective treatments to facilitate the secretion of the airways, the use of osmotic dry solutions or powders, such as hypertonic saline solutions or mannitol, has long been used. The operating principle of these treatments is linked to their ability to recall water in the airways, favoring the restoration of a superficial aqueous film with consequent restoration of ciliary mucus clearance.
Il trattamento con soluzioni o polveri ad azione osmotiche sono particolarmente efficaci proprio in quelle patologie come la FC e la DCP che si caratterizzano per una marcata ostruzione bronchiale dovuta ad un azzeramento della clearance. In questi soggetti l’alta concentrazione ionica di NaCl o l’alta concentrazione di mannitolo può esercitare la pressione osmotica a lungo perché non viene rimossa dalla clearance muco ciliare, come avverrebbe in un soggetto normale, oppure come avviene in un soggetto affetto da rallentamento muco ciliare di minore entità esempio bronchite cronico ostruttiva. Treatment with osmotic solutions or powders are particularly effective in those pathologies such as CF and DCP which are characterized by a marked bronchial obstruction due to a zero clearance. In these subjects the high ionic concentration of NaCl or the high concentration of mannitol can exert the osmotic pressure for a long time because it is not removed from the ciliary mucus clearance, as would happen in a normal subject, or as it happens in an affected subject. from slowing down of minor ciliary mucus eg chronic obstructive bronchitis.
Soluzioni dal 3 al 9% di NaCl da nebulizzare mediante jet o mesh nebulizer sono da tempo utilizzate per idratare le vie aeree, migliorare la clearance ciliare e quindi facilitare la eliminazione delle secrezioni muco purulente. Più recentemente sono state proposte formulazioni in polvere secca da inalare a base di mannitolo. Il vantaggio di queste formulazioni in polvere secca à ̈ che riducono il tempo necessario all’inalazione e potenzialmente possono migliorare la compliance al trattamento, specialmente nei pazienti dove la terapia deve essere cronica. Solutions from 3 to 9% of NaCl to be nebulized by jet or mesh nebulizer have long been used to hydrate the airways, improve ciliary clearance and therefore facilitate the elimination of purulent mucus secretions. More recently, mannitol-based dry powder formulations for inhalation have been proposed. The advantage of these dry powder formulations is that they reduce the time required for inhalation and can potentially improve treatment compliance, especially in patients where therapy must be chronic.
L’inalazione di soluzioni iperosmolari di NaCl così come l’inalazione di NaCl in polvere secca o la inalazione di mannitolo in polvere secca, determinano con facilità una bronco ostruzione, una irritazione in gola e tosse anche di notevole entità , effetti che riducono la possibilità di raggiungere le vie aeree in profondità , riducono la frazione respirabile di prodotto a causa dell’alterazione dei flussi aerei respiratori e conseguente riduzione dell’efficacia del trattamento. The inhalation of hyperosmolar solutions of NaCl as well as the inhalation of NaCl in dry powder or the inhalation of mannitol in dry powder, easily cause a bronchial obstruction, an irritation in the throat and cough even of considerable entity, effects that they reduce the possibility of reaching the airways in depth, they reduce the breathable fraction of the product due to the alteration of the respiratory air flows and consequent reduction of the effectiveness of the treatment.
Va inoltre segnalato come la palatabilità della soluzione salina iperosmolare e l’accettabilità dell’inalazione delle polveri secche di NaCl e di mannitolo risulti alquanto limitata per gli effetti irritativi e broncocontratturanti indotti dalla inalazione con oltre il 30% dei pazienti che abbandona precocemente il trattamento. It should also be noted that the palatability of the hyperosmolar saline solution and the acceptability of the inhalation of dry NaCl and mannitol powders is somewhat limited due to the irritative and bronchocontracting effects induced by inhalation with over 30% of patients leaving the treatment.
Di fatto un elevato numero di pazienti non riesce ad effettuare con regolarità il trattamento per gli effetti indesiderati che si accompagnano alla nebulizzazione di soluzioni ipertoniche saline o di polveri secche di agenti osmotici. In fact, a large number of patients are unable to regularly carry out the treatment due to the undesirable effects that accompany the nebulization of hypertonic saline solutions or dry powders of osmotic agents.
L’utilizzo di eccipienti e di conservanti à ̈ altamente sconsigliabile, visto la destinazione di utilizzo e quindi i margini di manovra per migliorare la qualità delle formulazioni appare alquanto limitato. Gli eccipienti di corrente utilizzo per migliorare la scorrevolezza delle polveri o per adeguare il pH delle soluzioni o per aumentare la scadenza delle formulazioni sia soluzioni che polveri, possono svolgere azione pro flogistica sull’epitelio respiratorio e sono quindi sconsigliabili nelle formulazioni aerosol. The use of excipients and preservatives is highly inadvisable, given the intended use and therefore the room for maneuver to improve the quality of the formulations appears rather limited. The excipients currently used to improve the flowability of powders or to adjust the pH of the solutions or to increase the expiration of both solution and powder formulations, can carry out a pro-inflammatory action on the respiratory epithelium and are therefore not recommended in aerosol formulations.
L’acido ialuronico à ̈ un polisaccaride lineare composto di acido glucuronico e N-acetilglucosamina appartenente alla famiglia dei Glicosaminoglicani. Hyaluronic acid is a linear polysaccharide composed of glucuronic acid and N-acetylglucosamine belonging to the Glycosaminoglycan family.
L’acido ialuronico à ̈ un componente naturale della matrice extracellulare ed à ̈ presente ubiquitariamente in molti tessuti. L’acido ialuronico à ̈ utilizzato da anni in medicina, in ortopedia, per iniezione intraarticolare per aumentare la viscosità del liquido sinoviale, in oculistica, in otorinolaringoiatria ed in chirurgia estetica. Hyaluronic acid is a natural component of the extracellular matrix and is ubiquitously present in many tissues. Hyaluronic acid has been used for years in medicine, in orthopedics, for intraarticular injection to increase the viscosity of the synovial fluid, in ophthalmology, otolaryngology and cosmetic surgery.
L’acido ialuronico, come tale, à ̈ atossico e privo di effetti allergizzanti. Per ognuna di queste attività sono raccomandati acidi ialuronici differenti sia per origine sia per peso molecolare. Più recentemente, l’acido ialuronico ad alto peso molecolare à ̈ stato suggerito per un utilizzo respiratorio per le sue capacità di ridurre il broncospasmo indotto dallo sforzo (G. Petrigni, L. Allegra, Pulmonary Pharmacology & Therapeutics 19 (2006) 166-171). Hyaluronic acid, as such, is non-toxic and has no allergenic effects. For each of these activities different hyaluronic acids are recommended both in origin and in molecular weight. More recently, high molecular weight hyaluronic acid has been suggested for respiratory use due to its ability to reduce exercise-induced bronchospasm (G. Petrigni, L. Allegra, Pulmonary Pharmacology & Therapeutics 19 (2006) 166- 171).
Infatti un altro autore (L.I.Z. Kunz et al Pulmonary Pharmacology & Therapeutics 19 (2006) 286–291) evidenziava come il ricorso di un Acido ialuronico di PM inferiore non aveva attività in tal senso. In fact, another author (L.I.Z. Kunz et al Pulmonary Pharmacology & Therapeutics 19 (2006) 286â € “291) highlighted how the use of a hyaluronic acid of lower PM had no activity in this sense.
Potenziali proprietà dell’acido ialuronico, che devono però ancora trovare conferma, sono state suggerite da diversi autori su target quali l’enfisema polmonare, la bronchite cronica e l’infezione da streptococco. Potential properties of hyaluronic acid, which have yet to be confirmed, have been suggested by various authors on targets such as pulmonary emphysema, chronic bronchitis and streptococcal infection.
DESCRIZIONE DELL’INVENZIONE DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
La necessità di disporre di formulazioni inalatorie con precise caratteristiche ha sinora limitato la disponibilità di prodotti con caratteristiche ideali. The need for inhalation formulations with precise characteristics has so far limited the availability of products with ideal characteristics.
Si à ̈ ora trovato che l’aggiunta di acido ialuronico o del suo sale sodico alle formulazioni a base di NaCl, in soluzione o in polvere secca, o di mannitolo in polvere secca, migliora le caratteristiche di tollerabilità dell’inalato riducendo il broncospasmo indotto dalla inalazione e, nel caso della soluzione, anche il fastidioso gusto salato, che permane a lungo dopo la inalazione provocando nausea nella stragrande maggioranza dei pazienti. It has now been found that the addition of hyaluronic acid or its sodium salt to NaCl-based formulations, in solution or in dry powder, or of mannitol in dry powder, improves the tolerability characteristics of the inhaled, reducing the bronchospasm induced by inhalation and, in the case of the solution, also the annoying salty taste, which persists long after inhalation causing nausea in the vast majority of patients.
Si à ̈ trovato più particolarmente che à ̈ possibile migliorare la tollerabilità della inalazione di sostanze osmotiche aggiungendo alle stesse un acido ialuronico eventualmente salificato di origine biotecnologica e di basso peso molecolare compreso tra 50.000 e 500.000. L’acido ialuronico di origine estrattiva sia animale sia vegetale à ̈ risultato sorprendentemente meno efficace. probabilmente per la presenza di sostanze contaminanti. Anche il peso molecolare, che à ̈ preferibilmente compreso tra 250.000 e 400.000, à ̈ in contrasto con quanto riportato in letteratura che evidenzia come efficace solo l’acido ialuronico a PM superiore (circa 1.000 KDa). More particularly, it has been found that it is possible to improve the tolerability of inhalation of osmotic substances by adding to them a possibly salified hyaluronic acid of biotechnological origin and of low molecular weight between 50,000 and 500,000. Hyaluronic acid of both animal and vegetable extractive origin was surprisingly less effective. probably due to the presence of contaminants. The molecular weight, which is preferably between 250,000 and 400,000, is also in contrast with what is reported in the literature which highlights only hyaluronic acid with a higher MW (about 1,000 KDa) as effective.
Il contenuto in esotossine delle formulazioni dell’invenzione deve essere inferiore a 0,1 ppm. The exotoxin content of the formulations of the invention must be less than 0.1 ppm.
La soluzione ipertonica contiene NaCl in percentuali tra 6 e 12% p/v, preferibilmente tra 6 e 9% p/v e ancora più preferibilmente 7% p/v. L’acido ialuronico a basso peso molecolare à ̈ compreso tra 0,05 e 0,3%, preferibilmente tra 0,05% e 0,2%, ancora più preferibilmente pari allo 0,1% p/v. The hypertonic solution contains NaCl in percentages between 6 and 12% w / v, preferably between 6 and 9% w / v and even more preferably 7% w / v. Low molecular weight hyaluronic acid is comprised between 0.05 and 0.3%, preferably between 0.05% and 0.2%, even more preferably equal to 0.1% w / v.
La soluzione da inalare à ̈ ripartita in flaconcini monodose da 4-5 ml ed à ̈ priva di eccipienti e di tamponi. The solution to be inhaled is divided into single-dose vials of 4-5 ml and is free of excipients and buffers.
È stato poi trovato che la soluzione contenente acido ialuronico e NaCl alle concentrazioni iperosmolari, se ripartita in flaconcini monodose in PELLD (polietilene a bassa densità ), à ̈ meno suscettibile alla variazione di pH rispetto al polietilene. In questo modo à ̈ stato possibile non inserire tamponi. It was then found that the solution containing hyaluronic acid and NaCl at hyperosmolar concentrations, when divided into single-dose vials in PELLD (low density polyethylene), is less susceptible to pH variation than polyethylene. In this way it was possible not to insert tampons.
Le formulazioni dell’invenzione in forma di soluzioni ipertoniche contengono NaCl e acido ialuronico biotecnologico a basso peso molecolare e sono prive di eccipienti garantendo un pH ottimale compreso tra 5 e 6,5 stabile nel tempo e una maggiore durata della formulazione. The formulations of the invention in the form of hypertonic solutions contain NaCl and biotechnological hyaluronic acid with low molecular weight and are free of excipients ensuring an optimal pH between 5 and 6.5 stable over time and a longer duration of the formulation.
Si à ̈ anche trovato che, quando inalati come formulazioni in polvere secca micronizzata, gli agenti osmolarizzanti (NaCl e mannitolo) risultano meglio tollerabili, meno broncocontratturanti e meno tossigeni quando associati ad acido ialuronico di basso peso molecolare(LMW) in rapporti agente osmolarizzante:acido ialuronico compresi tra 100:0.05 e 100:1. It has also been found that, when inhaled as micronized dry powder formulations, the osmolarizing agents (NaCl and mannitol) are better tolerable, less bronchocontracting and less toxigenic when associated with low molecular weight hyaluronic acid (LMW) in osmolarizing agent ratios: hyaluronic acid between 100: 0.05 and 100: 1.
L’aggiunta di acido ialuronico migliora anche la scorrevolezza delle polveri migliorando la distribuzione polmonare. The addition of hyaluronic acid also improves the flowability of the powders by improving pulmonary distribution.
L’invenzione ha pertanto per oggetto formulazioni inalatorie in forma di soluzioni ipertoniche o di polveri secche contenenti un agente osmolarizzante scelto fra NaCl e mannitolo e acido ialuronico di origine biotecnologica a basso peso molecolare o suoi sali, prive di eccipienti quali preservanti. Le formulazioni in forma di soluzione sono preferibilmente distribuite in flaconi monodose di polietilene a bassa densità mentre le formulazioni in polvere sono preferibilmente distribuite in capsule. The invention therefore relates to inhalation formulations in the form of hypertonic solutions or dry powders containing an osmolarizing agent selected from NaCl and mannitol and biotechnological hyaluronic acid of low molecular weight or its salts, free of excipients such as preservatives. The formulations in solution form are preferably distributed in single-dose bottles of low density polyethylene while the powder formulations are preferably distributed in capsules.
La nebulizzazione della polvere può avvenire con un qualsiasi dispositivo commerciale sia DPI che pMDI: sono preferiti i DPI, cioà ̈ dispositivi attivati dall’atto inspiratorio del paziente. The nebulisation of the powder can take place with any commercial device, both PPE and pMDI: PPE, ie devices activated by the patientâ € ™ s breath, are preferred.
Sono riportati di seguito a titolo di esempio le composizioni di alcune formulazioni dell’invenzione. The compositions of some formulations of the invention are reported below by way of example.
