Description

    PRIORITY TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
  • This application is a continuation of U.S. application Ser. No. 11/524,981 filed Sep. 21, 2006, now pending; which claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/719,793, filed Sep. 23, 2005. The entire contents of the above-identified applications are hereby incorporated by reference.
  • BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  • Many substances obtained from modern drug discovery are problematic because of insufficient bioavailability. Such molecules often exhibit very low aqueous solubility and limited solubility in oils. Furthermore many substances exhibit significant food effects, i.e., when drugs and certain foods are taken at the same time they can interact in ways that diminish the effectiveness of the ingested drug or reduce the absorption of food nutrients. Additionally, vitamin and herbal supplements taken with prescribed medication can result in adverse reactions.
  • Some examples of how foods and drugs can interact include:
  • Food can speed up or slow down the action of a medication.
  • Impaired absorption of vitamins and minerals in the body.
  • Stimulation or suppression of the appetite.
  • Drugs may alter how nutrients are used in the body.
  • NK-1 receptor antagonists of formula I have been described in commonly owned EP 1,035,115 and U.S. Pat. No. 6,297,375

  • These compounds exist in crystalline form, which is practically insoluble in water (for example <0.0001 mg/ml) and in simulated gastric fluid (for example 0.08 mg/ml) at 25° C. They are active NK1 receptor antagonists, useful for the treatment of CNS disorders, such as depression, anxiety and emesis.
  • SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
  • The bioavailability of a drug depends on several parameters, such as on the physicochemical nature of the active compound, the dosage form, and other physiological factors. Compounds of formula I are virtually insoluble in water and simulated gastric fluid, inhibiting oral bioavailability.
  • The present invention provides new galenic compositions for oral administration of pharmaceutically active compounds and a new process for preparing such galenic compositions. In particular, the compositions and process employ a hot melt extrusion of the active pharmaceutical ingredient and a poloxamer. The invention further provides hot melt extrudates of an active pharmaceutical ingredient and a poloxamer.
  • The oral dosage forms of the invention are suitable for delivery to human patients and are designed to enable sufficient availability of the active compound at its site of action. Such formulations may overcome the disadvantage of practical insolubility in simulated intestinal fluid for these compounds.

  • DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
  • The following definitions of general terms used herein apply irrespective of whether the terms in question appear alone or in combination. It must be noted that, as used in the specification and the appended claims, the singular forms “a”, “an,” and “the” include plural forms unless the context clearly dictates otherwise.
  • The term “lower alkyl” denotes a straight- or branched-chain alkyl group containing from 1 to 7 carbon atoms. Nonlimiting examples of lower alkyl include methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, i-butyl, t-butyl, and the like.
  • The term “alkylene group” means a lower alkyl linker which is bound to a group at either end. Nonlimiting examples of alkylene groups include methylene, ethylene, propylene, and the like.
  • The term “lower alkoxy” denotes a alkyl group as defined above, which is attached through an oxygen atom. Nonlimiting examples of lower alkoxy groups include methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy, and the like.
  • The term “cycloalkyl” denotes a saturated carbocyclic group (e.g. a nonaromatic ring) containing 3 to 6 carbon atoms. Nonlimiting examples of cycloalkyl groups include cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, and the like.
  • The term “halogen” denotes chlorine, iodine, fluorine, and bromine
  • “Processing aids” are excipients that improve the manufacturability of the formulation by improving, for instance, flowability and by avoiding sticking.
  • One type of processing aid is colloidal silicon dioxide. “Colloidal silicon dioxide” is a submicroscopic fumed silica with a particle size of about 15 nm. It is a light, loose, bluish-white-colored, odorless, tasteless nongritty amorphous powder. Nonlimiting examples of colloid silicon dioxides useful in the invention include Aerosil 380 and Cab-O-Sil.
  • A “tablet filler/diluent” is a material that improves the bulk properties, e.g. mixing, flow, and compression, of a pharmaceutical formulation. They fill out the size of a tablet or capsule, making it practical to produce and convenient for consumer use. By increasing the bulk volume, the final product has the proper volume for patient handling. Nonlimiting examples of tablet filler/diluent include starch, modified starch derivatives, cellulose, calcium salts, sugar and sugar alcohols.

Typically, disintegrants expand, swell, and dissolve when wet, causing the tablet to break apart in the digestive tract, releasing the active ingredients for absorption. Different types of disintegrants such as NVP water-swellable polymers, croscarmellose and cellulose derivatives can be used in the invention.
  • A “glidant” is a material used to improve the flowability of the powder or granules or both.
  • An “NVP water-swellable polymer” is an insoluble, swellable homo- or heteropolymer containing N-vinylpyrrolidone, e.g. N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone.
