Definitions

  • the invention relates to a pharmaceutical dosage form exhibiting a breaking strength of at least 500 N, said dosage form containing a pharmacologically active ingredient (A); an inorganic salt (B); and a polyalkylene oxide (C) having a weight average molecular weight of at least 200,000 g/mol, wherein the content of the polyalkylene oxide (C) is at least 20 wt.-%, based on the total weight of the dosage form; wherein the pharmacologically active ingredient (A) is present in a controlled-release matrix comprising the inorganic salt (B) and the polyalkylene oxide (C) and wherein, under in vitro conditions, the release profile of the pharmacologically active ingredient (A) from said matrix comprises at least a time interval during which the release follows zero order kinetics.
  • pharmacologically active ingredients have a potential of being abused and thus, are advantageously provided in form of tamper resistant pharmaceutical dosage forms.
  • Prominent examples of such pharmacologically active ingredients are opioids.
  • One concept relies on the mechanical properties of the pharmaceutical dosage forms, particularly an increased breaking strength (resistance to crushing).
  • the major advantage of such pharmaceutical dosage forms is that comminuting, particularly pulverization, by conventional means, such as grinding in a mortar or fracturing by means of a hammer, is impossible or at least substantially impeded.
  • Such pharmaceutical dosage forms are useful for avoiding pharmacologically active ingredient abuse of the pharmacologically active ingredient contained therein, as they may not be powdered by conventional means and thus, cannot be administered in powdered from, e.g. nasally.
  • the mechanical properties, particularly the high breaking strength of these pharmaceutical dosage forms renders them tamper resistant.
  • tamper resistant pharmaceutical dosage forms it can be referred to, e.g., WO 2005/016313, WO 2005/016314, WO 2005/063214, WO 2005/102286, WO 2006/002883, WO 2006/002884, WO 2006/002886, WO 2006/082097, WO 2006/082099, WO 2008/107149, and WO 2009/092601.
  • formulations providing immediate release upon oral administration have the advantage that they lead to a fast release of the pharmacologically active ingredient in the gastrointestinal tract.
  • a comparatively high dose of the pharmacologically active ingredient is quickly absorbed leading to high plasma levels within a short period of time and resulting in a rapid onset of medicinal action, i.e. medicinal action begins shortly after administration.
  • a rapid reduction in the medicinal action is observed, because metabolization and/or excretion of the pharmacologically active ingredient cause a decrease of plasma levels.
  • formulations providing immediate release of pharmacologically active ingredients typically need to be administered frequently, e.g. six times per day. This may cause comparatively high peak plasma pharmacologically active ingredient concentrations and high fluctuations between peak and trough plasma pharmacologically active ingredient concentrations which in turn may deteriorate tolerability.
  • Controlled release may be based upon various concepts such as coating the pharmaceutical dosage form with a controlled release membrane, embedding the pharmacologically active ingredient in a matrix, binding the pharmacologically active ingredient to an ion-exchange resin, forming a complex of the pharmacologically active ingredient, and the like.
  • coating the pharmaceutical dosage form with a controlled release membrane embedding the pharmacologically active ingredient in a matrix, binding the pharmacologically active ingredient to an ion-exchange resin, forming a complex of the pharmacologically active ingredient, and the like.
  • ion-exchange resin forming a complex of the pharmacologically active ingredient
  • formulations providing prolonged release upon oral administration have the advantage that they need to be administered less frequently, typically once daily or twice daily. This can reduce peak plasma pharmacologically active ingredient concentrations and fluctuations between peak and trough plasma pharmacologically active ingredient concentrations which in turn may improve tolerability.
  • the ideal goal in designing a prolonged-release system is to deliver the pharmacologically active ingredient to the desired site at a rate according to the needs of the body.
  • the pivotal question is at what rate a pharmacologically active ingredient should be delivered to maintain a constant blood pharmacologically active ingredient level.
  • This constant rate should be the same as that achieved by continuous intravenous infusion where a pharmacologically active ingredient is provided to the patient at a constant rate just equal to its rate of elimination. This implies that the rate of delivery must be independent from the amount of pharmacologically active ingredient remaining in the dosage form and constant over time.
  • a perfectly invariant pharmacologically active ingredient blood or tissue level versus time profile is the ideal starting goal of a prolonged-release system.
  • the way to achieve this, in the simplest case, is use of a maintenance dose that releases its pharmacologically active ingredient by zero-order kinetics.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 5,082,668 discloses an osmotically driven dosage form, namely a device comprising a wall that surrounds a compartment.
  • the compartment comprises a beneficial agent composition and a push composition.
  • a passageway in the wall connects the compartment with the exterior of the device for delivering the beneficial agent at a rate governed, in combination, by the wall, the beneficial agent composition and the push composition through the passageway of the device over time.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 7,300,668 relates to a dosage form comprising: a three-dimensionally printed innermost region comprising a first regional concentration of at least one active pharmaceutical ingredient; and plural three-dimensionally printed non-innermost regions in nested arrangement and comprising: a) one or more nested internal regions, wherein an internal region completely surrounds and is in contact with the innermost regions, and any other internal region present completely surrounds another internal region located to the interior thereof; and b) an outermost region completely surrounding an internal region, wherein the internal and outermost regions are in nested arrangement, wherein the at least one active pharmaceutical ingredient is released in approximately a zero-order release.
  • WO 2008/086804 discloses abuse resistant polyglycol-based pharmaceutical compositions.
  • the composition contains one or more polyglycols and one or more active substances and it is resistant to crushing, melting and/or extraction.
  • such compositions have the same or lower solubility in ethanolic-aqueous medium, i.e. they are not subject to ethanol-induced dose dumping effect.
  • WO 2008/148798 discloses a layered pharmaceutical composition suitable for oral use in the treatment of diseases where absorption takes place over a large part of the gastrointestinal tract.
  • WO 03/024426 discloses a controlled release pharmaceutical composition for oral use comprising a solid dispersion of: i) at least one therapeutically, prophylactically and/or diagnostically active substance, which at least partially is in an amorphous form, ii) a pharmaceutically acceptable polymer that has plasticizing properties, and iii) optionally, a stabilizing agent, the at least one active substance having a limited water solubility, and the composition being designed to release the active substance with a substantially zero order release.
  • Zero order release is provided by a coating that remains intact during the release phase and covers the matrix composition in such a manner that only a specific surface area is subject to erosion. Thereby the surface area from which the active substance is released is kept substantially constant during the time period.
  • WO 2010/057036 discloses a solid composition and methods for making and using the solid composition are provided.
  • the solid composition comprises: (a) at least one active agent with a solubility of less than about 0.3 mg/ml in an aqueous solution with a pH of at most about 6.8 at a temperature of about 37° C.; and (b) a hydrophilic polymer matrix composition comprising: i) a hydrophilic polymer selected from the group consisting of METHOCEL®, POLYOX® WSR 1105 and combinations thereof; and optionally ii) a hydrophobic polymer selected from the group consisting of Ethocel 20 premium; and (c) an alkalizer selected from the group consisting of calcium carbonate, magnesium oxide heavy and sodium bicarbonate; wherein the composition provides at least about 70% release of the active between about 7 to about 12 hours following oral administration.
  • D. Henrist et al. relates to in vitro and in vivo evaluation of starch-based hot stage extruded double matrix systems.
  • the behaviour of the systems was evaluated through dissolution testing and through a randomised crossover bioavailability study on nine male volunteers. All double matrix systems showed in vitro a nearly constant drug release profile after an initial slower release phase of 4 h. This initial slower release phase was avoided by loading the starch pipe with a small amount of drug.
  • inorganic salts contained in a polymer matrix provide a further delay of the release of the pharmacologically active ingredients from tamper resistant dosage forms without leading to a substantial increase of the overall weight. Further, it has been surprisingly found that the incorporation of the inorganic salt into the polymer matrix does not substantially alter the mechanical properties of the tamper resistant dosage form which are based upon the polymer matrix, especially the breaking strength. Still further, it has been surprisingly found that the release profile follows zero order kinetics and does not depend upon the pH value of the release medium.
