Description
TAMPER-RESISTANT CONTROLLED RELEASE PHARMACEUTICAL
DOSAGE FORMS
TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to controlled release pharmaceutical dosage forms, for
example to a tamper resistant controlled release dosage form including an opioid
sic, essentially ing a zero order release rate. The present invention
further relates to processes of manufacture of these dosage forms, uses thereof as
well as methods of treatment.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Controlled release formulations aim at achieving a release of an active agent
contained therein starting at a predetermined time-point and extending over a
ary period of time in order to provide for a red concentration of the
active agent in the plasma of ts and to achieve a therapeutic effect for an
extended period of time. There are medical conditions requiring the release of the
active agent at a constant rate to maintain plasma levels of said active agent in the
therapeutic range, thereby ng plasma level fluctuations characteristic of
conventionally administered dosage forms in a ose regimen. Therefore, a need
exists in the art for pharmaceutical oral dosage forms ing active agents
essentially according to a zero order mode. This is in particular true for certain
dosage forms comprising an opioid analgesic as an active agent.
rmore pharmaceutical products, in particular pharmaceutical products
comprising an opioid analgesic, are sometimes the subject of abuse. For example, a
particular dose of opioid agonist may be more potent when administered parenterally
as compared to the same dose administered orally. Some formulations can be
tampered with to provide the opioid agonist contained therein for illicit use.
Controlled release opioid agonist formulations are sometimes crushed, or subject to
extraction with solvents (e.g., ethanol) by drug abusers to provide the opioid
contained therein for immediate release upon oral or parenteral administration.
Controlled release opioid agonist dosage forms which can liberate a portion of the
opioid upon exposure to ethanol, can also result in a patient receiving the dose more
rapidly than intended if a patient ards instructions for use and concomitantly
uses alcohol with the dosage form.
There continues to exist a need in the art for pharmaceutical oral dosage forms
comprising an active agent, in particular an opioid analgesic, without significantly
changed release properties when in contact with alcohol and/or with resistance to
crushing and which provide essentially zero order release.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
In s embodiments the present invention relates to solid oral extended release
pharmaceutical dosage forms comprising an active agent, wherein the active agent is
released ially ing a zero order mode.
In further embodiments the present invention relates to solid oral extended release
pharmaceutical dosage forms comprising an active agent such as an opioid analgesic
which are tamper ant.

pharmaceutical dosage forms comprising an active agent such as an opioid analgesic
which are resistant to crushing.
In further embodiments the present ion relates to solid oral extended release
pharmaceutical dosage forms comprising an active agent such as an opioid analgesic
which are resistant to alcohol extraction and dose dumping when concomitantly used
with or in contact with alcohol.
The present invention as in particular described by the following ments
relates to dosage forms and the respective manufacturing ses as well as the
uses thereof.
In one embodiment, the invention concerns a solid oral extended release
pharmaceutical dosage form comprising a multi-layered extended release matrix

Preparation of blocking layer blend:
A “V” blender (Gemco “V” Blender ~— 2 CU. FT.) with intensifier bar was
d with the polyethylene oxide WSR 303 and the magnesium stearate.
Step 1 materials were blended for one minute with the intensifier bar OFF.
Step 2 blend was charged into a clean, tared stainless steel or polyethylene
lined container.
ation of active layer blend:
A high-shear granulator (Collette 75 L) was charged with the hydrocodone
bitartrate, the microcrystalline cellulose and the hydroxypropylcellulose.
Water was added to the mixture with the propeller and chopper on.
The wet granulation from step 5 was passed through the coarse screen of a
Quadro Comil g device.
The screened granulation'from step 6 was dried in a Vector VFC-3 fluid bed
dryer.
The dried granulation from step 7 was passed through the fine screen of the
Quadro Comil.
A “V” blender (Gemco 2 CU. FT.) with intensifier bar was charged with the
polyethylene oxide WSR 303 and the milled granulation from step 8.
