No. 11/290,933, filed 30 Nov. 2005 and entitled “Highly Concentrated Stable Meloxicam Solutions,” which claims priority to abandoned U.S. Nonprovisional application Ser. No. 09/860,737, filed 18 May 2001 and entitled “Highly Concentrated Stable Meloxicam Solutions,” which claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/216,004, filed 3 Jul. 2000 and entitled “Highly Concentrated Stable Meloxicam Solutions,” and which claims priority to German Application No. 100 30 345.5, filed 20 Jun. 2000. The disclosure of each aforementioned application is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
- The present invention relates to highly concentrated stable meloxicam solutions for oral and parenteral administration, particularly for treating respiratory diseases in large farm animals.
- Meloxicam (4-hydroxy-2-methyl-N-(5-methyl-2-thiazolyl)-2H-1,2-benzothiazine-3-carboxamide-1,1-dioxide) is an active substance which belongs to the group of NSAIDs (non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs). Meloxicam and the sodium and meglumine (N-methyl-D-glucamine) salt thereof are described in EP-A-0 002 482. EP-A-0 002 482 shows, inter alia, the example of a 0.2% injectable solution of meloxicam consisting of the meglumine salt of the active substance, sodium chloride, and water.
- EP-A-0 945 134 discloses the pH-dependent solubility characteristics of meloxicam and its salts, i.e., the sodium salt, the ammonium salt, and the meglumine salt, in aqueous solution. According to EP-A-0 945 134, meloxicam is an active substance which does not dissolve readily in water and the meloxicam salts, particularly the meglumine salt, exhibit improved solubility as the pH increases between 4 and 10, as shown in Table 1 of EP-0 945 134. However, until now it has only been possible to produce stable, clear, aqueous solutions with a low concentration of meloxicam. In addition to involving the in situ formation of a meloxicam salt, e.g., meglumine salt, and the addition of solubilizers, these prior art solutions were required to have a pH in the range of maximum possible solubility as well as being reasonably well-tolerated and contain a high proportion of organic solvent. Formulation tests with the same or a similar recipe led to cloudiness of the solution if the meloxicam concentrations were higher, e.g., 2%.
- W09959634 A1 describes an eye drop solution containing 0.5% meloxicam but makes no reference to possible meloxicam concentrations over 1%. For example, a commercially available 0.5% meloxicam solution is used in small animals such as dogs, heifers, and calves to treat respiratory diseases.
- Thus, it has not hitherto been possible to treat large farm animals with an injectable meloxicam solution as the low concentration of active substance in the injectable solution did not allow an acceptable, well-tolerated injection volume due to the great weight of the animals. Furthermore, parenteral administration requires that the solution be free from particles; if there are particles in a parenteral drug, there is a risk of vascular damage or embolism. Moreover, organic solvents, solubilizers, and water-soluble substances can only be used in certain concentrations to achieve acceptable drug tolerance. These problems are solved by the present invention which provides particle-free, highly concentrated meloxicam solutions which are stable over long periods and suitable for treating farm animals up to 750 kg in weight. The meloxicam solutions of the present invention should, therefore, be suitable for administration both orally or parenterally.
- Surprisingly, it has been found that highly concentrated meloxicam solutions which contain, in addition to a meloxicam salt and certain excipients, another excipient selected from among citric acid, lecithin, gluconic acid, tartaric acid, phosphoric acid, and EDTA or the salts thereof, may be produced so as to be particle-free and stable over long periods. The stability was achieved with an unexpectedly small amount of organic solubilizers. The formulation was found to be stable even when subjected to the process of final sterilization.
- This results in the solution to the problem according to the invention, as a formulation of a meloxicam solution which contains, in addition to a meloxicam salt, small concentrations of solubilizer, a preservative, a buffer substance for achieving the optimum pH range, and another excipient.
- The invention relates to aqueous cyclodextrin-free solutions of meloxicam for parenteral or oral administration which contain a pharmacologically acceptable meloxicam salt of an organic or inorganic base in a highly concentrated solution with 11-25 mg/mL of meloxicam together with suitable excipients.
- The formulation according to the invention overcomes the problem arising from the prior art of providing an injectable solution of the active substance meloxicam which is also suitable for treating large farm animals, by permitting a high concentration of active substance in a particle free solution which is stable over the long term, having the composition described hereinafter.
- The formulation according to the invention may contain, as the meloxicam salt, the meglumine, sodium, potassium, or ammonium salt, preferably the meloxicam meglumine salt.
- The solubilizers used may be, for example, polyethyleneglycols, polyoxyethylene-polyoxypropylene copolymers (e.g., Poloxamer 188), glycofurol, arginine, lysine, castor oil, propyleneglycol, solketal, polysorbate, glycerol, sorbitol, mannitol, xylitol, polyvinylpyrrolidone, lecithin, cholesterol, 12-hydroxystearic acid-PEG660-ester, propyleneglycol monostearate, polyoxy-40-hydrogenated castor oil, polyoxyl-10-oleyl-ether, polyoxyl-20-cetostearylether, and polyoxyl-40-stearate or a mixture of sorbitol, mannitol and xylitol, preferably polyethyleneglycols, polyoxyethylene-polyoxypropylene copolymers, glycofurol, polyvinylpyrrolidone, lecithin, cholesterol, 12-hydroxystearic acid-PEG66O-esters, propyleneglycol monostearate, polyoxy-40-hydrogenated castor oil, polyoxyl-10-oleyl-ether, polyoxyl-20-cetostearylether, and polyoxyl-40-stearate. Particularly preferred are polyethyleneglycols, glycofurol, and polyoxyethylene-polyoxypropylene-copolymers, but especially polyethyleneglycols (e.g., Macrogol 300) and polyoxyethylene-polyoxypropylene copolymers (e.g., Poloxamer 188). The preservatives used may be, for example, ethanol, benzoic acid and the sodium or potassium salts thereof, sorbic acid and the sodium or potassium salts thereof, chlorobutanol, benzyl alcohol, phenylethanol, the methyl, ethyl, propyl, or butyl p-hydroxybenzoates, phenol, m-cresol, p-chloro-m-cresol, or benzalkonium chloride. Particularly preferred are ethanol, benzoic acid and the sodium or potassium salts thereof, sorbic acid and the sodium or potassium salts thereof, chlorobutanol, benzyl alcohol, phenylethanol, and the methyl, ethyl, propyl, or butyl p-hydroxybenzoates, but preferably ethanol, benzoic acid and the sodium or potassium salts thereof, sorbic acid and the sodium or potassium salts thereof, but especially ethanol.
- The buffer system used to achieve a pH of between 8 and 10 may be, for example, glycine, a mixture of glycine and HCl, a mixture of glycine and sodium hydroxide solution, and the sodium and potassium salts thereof, a mixture of potassium hydrogen phthalate and hydrochloric acid, a mixture of potassium hydrogen phthalate and sodium hydroxide solution, or a mixture of glutamic acid and glutamate. Glycine, a mixture of glycine and HCl, and a mixture of glycine/sodium hydroxide solution, especially glycine, are particularly preferred.
