Description
SOLID PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITION FOR ORAL ADMINISTRATION OF IBANDRONIC ACID OR A PHARMACEUTICALLY ACCEPTABLE SALT OR HYDRATE
OF THE SAME, PROCEDURE FOR PREPARING SUCH COMPOSITION THROUGH DIRECT COMPRESSION, PHARMACEUTICAL FORMULATIONS THAT CONTAIN IT AND PROCEDURE TO PREPARE THOSE FORMULATIONS
FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates generally to solid pharmaceutical compositions in unit dosage form for oral administration of a diphosphonic acid. Said compositions present an improved stability and a more efficient manufacturing methodology. In particular, the present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition containing ibandronic acid, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or hydrate thereof, preferably as a monosodium ibandronate monohydrate, to a process for its preparation by direct compression, to pharmaceutical formulations containing it a process for the preparation of said formulations.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Diphosphonic acids and their salts, usually referred to as diphosphonates or bisphosphonates, are known, in particular due to their application as active ingredients for the treatment of diseases and disorders of the bones. These diseases and disorders include, for example, alterations in calcium metabolism such as osteoporosis and hypercalcemia. Among the most commonly used diphosphonic acids are ibandronic acid, risedronic acid, pamidronic acid, zoledronic acid, alendronic acid and clodronic acid, among others. The compounds or their formulations are described, for example, in the
patents or patent applications US 4687767, US 4666895, US 4859472 (clodronate, wet granulation), EP 186405 (risedronate), EP 613373 (risedronate, enteric formulation), and Argentine applications as AR 001225 A1 and AR001226 A1 (method of treatment of osteoporosis with phosphonates), AR 252531 (procedure for preparing diphosphonic acids), AR015946 A1 (formulation of bisphosphonates with absorption enhancers), AR019242 A1 (preparation of compositions by fluidized bed granulation), AR020017 A1 (use of ibandronate for osseointegration of prosthesis), AR027245 A1 (parenteral bisphosphonate compositions), AR033671 A1 (bisphosphonate gel compositions for subcutaneous administration) and AR034199 A1 (liquid ibandronate compositions with pH regulators). However, the known compositions have various drawbacks such as oral incompatibilities, adverse effects on the gastrointestinal tract, lack of flexibility in the administration regimens, slow disintegration of the formulation during its administration and even disadvantages in the processing of the compositions as in the filling of capsules and the adherence of the components to the compression dump dies. It is also known that high doses of ibandronate monosodium are complex to process from the point of view of pharmaceutical galenic formulations, since the high amounts of active ingredient must be granulated to achieve adequate fluidity and compressibility and a stable dosage unit dosage form. and with good dissolution speed. This can be seen in the publication WO 2004/05673 A1 (equivalent to RA 037560 A1) where a process of wet granulation is used where a superdisintegrant is added externally and internally to the granules containing the monosodium ibandronate. Consequently, there is a need still not satisfied with new diphosphonate formulations that overcome the disadvantages found with
the compositions of the previous art. In particular, formulations of a solid for immediate oral administration where the disintegration in the gastrointestinal tract rapidly exposes the crystals of the active ingredient.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURE Figure 1 shows a graph of the dissolution profile of the compositions of the present invention compared to a known commercially available product.
DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION It has now been found that by means of the direct compression technique and using certain components and proportions, solid pharmaceutical compositions for oral administration of diphosphonic acids are obtained which overcome the problems presented by the compositions of the state of the art. The present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition of ibandronic acid, preferably in its form of monosodium ibandronate monohydrate, high dose and concentration in unit dosage form (coated tablets) obtained by mixing excipients prepared and suitable to be processed by the known technique in art as "Direct Compression". Unexpectedly it has been found that a pharmaceutical composition of ibandronate monosodium monohydrate in high concentrations using suitable excipients solves the problem of the need to employ the granulation technique, that is to say, previous formation of granules of said active principle and excipients. In this way it is possible to improve the dissolution profiles, the stability and the productive steps to obtain a safe and effective medication and very easy administration in humans.

Example 2: Coated tablets containing 100 mg of active ingredient In a similar manner to that of Example 1, 112.53 g of ibandronate monosodium monohydrate and 199.20 g of silicified microcrystalline cellulose are screened and mixed. On the other hand, 3.32 g of cross-linked sodium carboxymethyl cellulose are sieved, loaded in the mixer together with the previously mixed components and processed until a homogeneous mixture is obtained. 6.64 g of sodium stearyl fumarate and , 67 g of talc, previously sieved and mixed until homogeneous. Subsequently, 6.64 g of hydrogenated vegetable oil are sieved and added to the obtained mixture, mixing again until homogeneity.

Dissolution properties of the compositions of the present invention
The excellent dissolution properties of the formulations of the present invention are demonstrated by a comparative dissolution test. For this purpose, the percentage of active principle dissolved as a function of time was evaluated, comparing the composition of Example 1 of the present invention with a commercially available product under the trademark BONIVA® tablets. At the end of this trial a dissolution system was used consisting of:? a type II device according to the US Pharmacopoeia (pallets),
? medium: distilled water? Temperature: 37 ° C ± 0.5 ° C? volume: 900 mi? Speed: 50 rpm? sample time: 15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes.
The values obtained are summarized in Table I below and are illustrated in the graph of Figure 1, indicating in the ordinates the dissolution percentage and in the abscissa the time elapsed since the beginning of the test.
Table I
From the results of the preceding table and more clearly in the graph of Figure 1, it can be seen that the compositions of the present invention provide a better dissolution profile of the active principle, releasing it more quickly, in comparison with a commercially available product obtained by wet granulation. This is explained from the pharmacotechnical point of view by the immediate release and therefore the exposure of the crystals to the dissolution medium. In the technique of
Direct Compression does not exist an entity called granule like the one existing in the Granulation process. Said granules must previously disintegrate to expose the active principle to the dissolution medium; in Direct Compression, once the tablet has disintegrated, the exposed entities are the crystals of the active principle. The product of the invention allows a correct swallowing without rapid disintegration in the oral cavity but obtaining a fast dissolution speed in an aqueous medium of greater volume. It can also be seen that in later phases the formulations of the present invention perform similarly to those of the commercial product.
This demonstrates that, unexpectedly, through the compositions of the present invention based on a much simpler and safer production technology, better results can be obtained regarding the release and disposition of ibandronate monosodium monohydrate than those obtained with commercially known products. available, with the consequent economy of resources.
