Definitions
- the present invention generally relates to new pharmaceutical microspheres for oral administration.
- the invention relates to new phamaceutical microspheres for oral administration containing valproic acid of formula:
- alkali metal such as sodium or potassium
- alkaline-earth metal such as calcium or magnesium
- Sodium valproate is an anti-epileptic medicament widely sold at the current time, in particular in the form of tablets assaying 500 mg per administration unit.
- sodium valproate has a rather unpleasant, bitter taste. It will consequently prove to be necessary to take into account this disadvantage in administration forms suitable for children, for example syrup forms or solutions to be taken orally, by masking this taste using various expedients.
- administration forms such as syrups do not allow children to benefit from the advantages resulting in some cases from the gastroresistance and the prolonged release of the active ingredient.
- microsphere pharmaceutical form lends itself poorly to sustained release of the active ingredient. This is because, for equal masses, the surface area developed by these spheres will increase as their diameter becomes smaller, the consequence of which will be that these microspheres dissolve faster.
- the spherical particle formed by dispersion solidify as microspheres.
- the mean concentration of valproic acid in these microspheres does not exceed 17%, these microspheres having a certain concentration of the surfactant used, namely a mixture of ethoxylated or non-ethoxylated polysorbates.
- Another technique for forming pharmaceutical microspheres resorts to the prilling technique.
- This process has been applied, for example, to pharmaceutical ingredients with an undefined crystallization point which melt in the excipient, as described in Patent EP 438,350.
- This excipient can be, for example, a fatty alcohol, such as stearyl alcohol, a fatty acid, such as stearic acid, a glycerol ester, a hydrogenated oil, a fatty acid salt, a polyol, a wax, a polyoxyethylene glycol or an esterified polyoxyethylene.
- stearic acid is exemplified therein as excipient.
- ketoprofen fatty acids and their salts, glycerol esters, hydrogenated oils, waxes or esterified polyoxyethylenes alone can be used.
- microspheres In the majority of cases, these microspheres have additionally turned out to be suitable for sustained release of the active ingredient, without requiring them to be provided with a specific coating for this purpose.
- a first subject of the invention relates to pharmaceutical microspheres containing, as active principle, a mixture of valproic acid and of one of its pharmaceutically acceptable salts, such as the sodium salt, in combination with a matrix vehicle selected from glycerol esters, hydrogenated oils, esterified polyethylene glycols, waxes and their mixtures.
- a matrix vehicle selected from glycerol esters, hydrogenated oils, esterified polyethylene glycols, waxes and their mixtures.
- Another subject of the invention relates to a process for the preparation of microspheres containing a mixture of valproic acid and of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of this acid, in combination with a matrix vehicle.
- the invention relates to a pharmaceutical form for oral administration containing microspheres according to the invention.
- active principle will denote the mixture of valproic acid and of pharmaceutically acceptable salt of this acid used in the context of the present invention.
- microspheres of the invention can be obtained according to the prilling process mentioned above, which consists:
- a fluidized bed can be added to this prilling tower, which bed makes it possible to keep the not yet completely solidified microspheres constantly fluidized.
- the mixture used in the prilling can be obtained by heating the matrix vehicle to its melting temperature, then, when the mass is completely molten, by adding valproic acid and then a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of this acid, and by maintaining the combined mixture with stirring until a clear fluid is obtained.
- microspheres of the invention contain, as active principle, a mixture in all proportions of valproic acid and of one of its pharmaceutically acceptable salts.
- This salt is generally an alkali metal salt, preferably the sodium salt, or an alkaline-earth metal salt, such as the calcium or magnesium salt.
- the active principle is composed of mixtures of 15% to 60% by weight of valproic acid and of 40% to 85% by weight of pharmaceutically acceptable salt of this acid.
- Mixtures containing from 25% to 35% by weight of valproic acid and from 65% to 75% by weight of the salt in question represent mixtures which are particularly preferred for the purposes of the invention.
- the viscosity of the composition formed by the pharmaceutical ingredient and the matrix excipient is a limiting factor in making use of the prilling process suited to the preparation of pharmaceutical microspheres.
- the microspheres of the invention will contain at most 35% by weight of active principle, as described above, preferably from 30% to 35% by weight.
- This matrix vehicle which is composed of one or of several excipients of the class of glycerol esters, hydrogenated oils, esterified polyethylene glycols, or waxes, is selected such that its melting point is between 50° C. and 120° C., generally between 70° C. and 90° C.
- This matrix vehicle does not contain any additional contribution of surface-active agents, such as those of the ethoxylated or non-ethoxylated polysorbate type.
- Excipients capable of melting at a temperature of the order of 80° C. are preferably selected. Moreover, an excessively high temperature would require an excessively high drop height for the microspheres in order to achieve complete solidification, with the risk of causing the active principle to degrade.
- the excipients in question can be selected from:
- saturated or unsaturated fatty acid glycerides in particular glycerides containing up to 80 carbon atoms, such as, for example, glyceryl tribehenate, glyceryl palmitate/stearate, glyceryl monostearate, glyceryl monooleate or caprylic/capric glycerides, such as glyceryl tricaprylate/caprate
- saturated polyglycolysed glycerides such as mixtures of glycerol monoesters, diesters and triesters and of polyethylene glycol mono- and diesters
- hydrogenated oils such as hydrogenated castor oil
- a wax such as natural beeswax or synthetic beeswax.
- matrix excipients capable of forming microspheres according to the invention can be selected from:
- glyceryl tribehenate such as sold under the trademark Compritol® 888
- glyceryl palmitate/stearate such as sold under the trademark Precirol® ATO5
- glyceryl monostearate such as sold under the trademark Monomuls® 90/25
- glyceryl monooleate such as sold under the trademark Myverol® 18/99
- glyceryl tricaprylate/caprate such as sold under the trademark Labrafac® lipophile
- saturated polyglycolysed glycerides such as sold under the trademarks Gelucire® 50-02 or Labrafil® 2130CS
- excipients used in the context of the invention will furthermore be selected while taking into account the hydrophilic, lipophilic (or hydrophobic) or amphiphilic nature which they may possess and according to the kinetics desired for the release of the active principle.
- mixtures of excipients of the type either glyceryl tribehenate (Compritol® 888)/surfactant (Labrafil® 2130CS) or glyceryl tribehenate (Compritol® 888)/glyceryl monooleate (Myverol® 18/99) or synthetic beeswax (Cutina® BW)/hydrogenated castor oil (Cutina® HR)/glyceryl monostearate (Monomuls® 90/25) have proved to be suitable for fairly immediate release of the active principle.
- Microspheres comprising from 55% to 60% by weight of product Compritol® 888 or of product Precirol® ATO5, from 30% to 35% by weight of active principle (valproic acid/sodium valproate) and from 10% to 15% by weight of surfactant Labrafil® 2130CS were used for this purpose.
- hydrophobic substances such as hydrogenated castor oil (Cutina® HR), beeswax, paraffin, the product Gelucire® 50-02 or the product Labrafac® lipophile, has furthermore made it possible to accentuate the delayed release of the active principle.
- Cutina® HR hydrogenated castor oil
- beeswax paraffin
- paraffin the product Gelucire® 50-02
- microspheres containing from 65 to 70% by weight of the product Compritol® 888 and from 30% to 35% by weight of active principle have revealed, during dissolution tests, a slow dissolution profile.
- Analogous results were recorded from microspheres comprising from 55% to 60% by weight of the product Compritol® 888, 10% to 15% by weight of the product Cutina® HR, beeswax, paraffin, the product Gelucire® 50-02 or the product Labrafac® lipophile and 30% to 35 by weight of active principle.
- the active principle used in the present invention is composed of a hydrophobic component, namely valproic acid, and of a hydrophilic component, that is to say a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of this acid, it seems that the most suitable matrix excipients should be amphiphilic substances, in order, by their hydrophobic part, to provide for the delayed release of the active principle and, by their hydrophilic part, to provide for the regulation of the rate of release of this active principle from the excipient.
- composition A microspheres formed of 68.37 g of natural beeswax as matrix vehicle and of 31.63 g of active principle, namely 9.63 g of valproic acid and 22 g of sodium valproate, hereinafter denoted “Composition A microspheres”.
- the active principle consequently corresponds to a 30.45%/69.55% by weight valproic acid/sodium valproate mixture.
- a divisible retard tablet formulated with 478 mg of a valproic acid/sodium valproate mixture, namely 145 mg of acid and 333 mg of salt, this tablet comprising in particular methacrylic acid polymers as excipient.
- the active ingredients of this commercial tablet-consequently correspond to a 30.33%/69.67% by weight valproic acid/sodium valproate mixture or to 500 mg of active ingredient expressed as sodium valproate.
- microspheres represents the percentages of dissolution of the valproate anion as a function of the time from the above Composition
- a divisible retard tablet such as above so that each subject receives a dose of active ingredient (valproic acid/sodium valproate) equivalent to 500 mg expressed as sodium valproate.
- composition A/water represents the mean blood concentration obtained with the Composition A microspheres in water
- composition A/yoghurt represents the mean blood concentration obtained with the Composition A microspheres in yoghurt
- microspheres containing from 30% to 35% of active principle in combination with a matrix vehicle entirely composed of beeswax represent microspheres of vital importance.
- microspheres of this type in which the active principle is formed of 25% to 35% of valproic acid and of 65% to 75% of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of this acid, such as sodium valproate, are particularly preferred for the purposes of the invention.
- prilling makes it possible to obtain a so-called monodisperse particle size distribution with the advantage of producing spheres which are regular in size. Consequently, during the administration of the medicament containing them, the amount of such microspheres received by the patient will be constant.
- the pharmaceutical microspheres of the invention possess this advantage, in that they exhibit such a regular spherical shape, with a diameter of between 250 ⁇ m and 500 ⁇ m, generally of the order of 400 ⁇ m.
- these microspheres can be covered with a film-forming agent, so as to form, for example, a gastroresistant film.
- Such pharmaceutical forms can be, for example, a tablet, including a divisible tablet, a capsule, including a hard gelatin capsule, or a powder packaged, for example, in a chartula or in a system for dispensing unit doses, in particular a dispensing/measuring bottle or a container furnished with an adjustable-volume measuring spoon, for example for adjusting doses to the weight of the patient.
- the microspheres in question can receive agents which facilitate flow, as well as lubricants, inorganic fillers, such as silicas, talc or aluminium oxide, or alternatively sweeteners, such as aspartame.
- These pharmaceutical forms can advantageously comprise, per administration unit, from 50 to 500 mg of active principle in the form of microspheres according to the invention, in particular from 50 to 250 mg.
- Microspheres with the following composition are prepared: % by weight White beeswax 68.424 Valproic acid 9.576 Sodium valproate 22 100.00
- 68.424 g of white beeswax are introduced into the jacketed vessel of a melting device thermostatically adjusted to 95° C. and then the wax is melted at a temperature of 90° C. to 93° C. while monitoring that the product has completely melted.
- the mixture is then prilled, at a temperature of 90° C., through 200 ⁇ m injectors maintained at a temperature of 87° C. to 91° C. and under a pressure of 0.5 bar.
- the frequency of the vibrator of the device (5.75 ⁇ 10 3 to 6.70 ⁇ 10 3 Hz) is adjusted, so as to individualize the droplets formed, under stroboscopic monitoring at a frequency of 25,000 Hz.
- Microspheres solidified by cooling during their fall in air (drop height: approximately 2.5 m) refrigerated by a countercurrent of cold air or by a liquid nitrogen bath are thus collected at the base of the device. These microspheres have a mean diameter of 400 ⁇ m.
- Microspheres were prepared in the same way, but by using other matrix excipients, from the following formulations, which all proved to be clear after dissolution of the active principle (rig appearance Of crystals):
- Example 1 756.7 mg of microspheres as prepared in Example 1 are introduced into a chartula, so as to form an oral administration unit containing 238.96 mg of active principle composed of 30.4%/ 69 . 6 % by weight valproic acid/sodium valproate, which corresponds to 250 mg of active principle expressed as sodium valproate.
- microspheres prepared in Example 1 i.e. 8 g of active principle per packaged unit, are introduced into a bottle with a working volume of approximately 45 ml which allows unit doses to be dispensed.
- This bottle makes it possible to dispense approximately 50 unit doses containing 150 mg of active principle composed of 30.4%/69.6% by weight valproic acid/sodium valproate.
