Description

AMORPHOUS FORM OF ESOMEPRAZOLE SALTS
Field of the Invention
The field of the invention relates to an amorphous form of the salts of the (-) enantiomer or (S)-enantiomer of omeprazole, i.e., esomeprazole. The invention also relates to processes for preparing amorphous esomeprazole salts and pharmaceutical compositions that include the amorphous esomeprazole salts.
Background of the Invention
Chemically, omeprazole is 5-methoxy-2-[[(4-methoxy-3,5-dimethyl-2-pyridinyl)- methyl]sulfιnyl]-lH-benzimidazole. Omeprazole and therapeutically acceptable salts thereof are described in U.S. Patent No. 4,255,431. Certain specific alkaline salts of omeprazole are disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 4,738,974. Omeprazole is transformed into an effective inhibitor of gastric acid secretion in mammals, and is therefore useful as an anti-ulcer agent. Omeprazole may be used to prevent and/or treat gastric acid related disorders and gastrointestinal inflammatory diseases in mammals. In man, for example, omeprazole may be used to prevent and/or treat gastritis, gastric ulcer and duodenal ulcer.
Omeprazole is a racemic mixture of its two single enantiomers, the (R)- and (S)- enantiomer of omeprazole. These enantiomers are commonly referred to as (R)- omeprazole and (S)-omeprazole, respectively. The enantiomer, (S)-omeprazole, is commonly referred to as esomeprazole. WO 94/27988 discloses certain salts of the single enantiomers of omeprazole and their preparation. These compounds are described as having improved pharmacokinetic properties which give an improved therapeutic profile, such as a lower degree of variation between individuals taking the compound.
WO 96/02535 discloses a process for preparing the single enantiomers of omeprazole and salts thereof. WO 98/54171 discloses a process for the preparation of the trihydrate of the magnesium salt of (ES)-omeprazole.
Esomeprazole, like many other similar benzimidazole compounds, is not stable in its free form and is susceptible to degradation in acid and neutral media. It has been found that alkali metal or alkaline earth metal salts of esomeprazole are more stable during storage than the corresponding neutral form. U.S. Patent No. 5,714,505 describes alkaline salts of the (-) enantiomer of 5- methoxy-2- [ [(4-methoxy-3 ,5 -dimethyl-2-pyridiniyl)methyl] sulfinyl] - 1 H-benzimidazoles (i.e., esomeprazole) including the magnesium salt, which are used for inhibiting gastric acid secretion. Esomeprazole magnesium is prepared according to Examples 5, 6, and 7 of the '505 patent in optically pure crystalline form by precipitation/crystallization.
U.S. Patent No. 6,124,464 discloses another process for preparing crystalline esomeprazole magnesium. U.S. Patent No. 6,369,085 discloses three different types of crystalline esomeprazole magnesium viz. dihydrate form A, dihydrate form B and the trihydrate form. However, the inventors are not aware of any disclosure of an amorphous form of esomeprazole salts, including amorphous esomeprazole magnesium, in the prior art. It is known that different morphs of biologically active compounds may have different absorption profile in vivo and consequently different pharmacokinetic profile.

Figure 1 is an x-ray powder diffraction pattern of amoφhous esomeprazole.
Figure 2 is an infra-red spectra in KBr of amoφhous esomeprazole magnesium prepared as described herein. Detailed Description of the Invention
The mentors have found a new form of esomeprazole salts, the amoφhous form and, in particular, the amoφhous esomeprazole magnesium salt. The new form is characterized by its X-ray powder diffraction pattern and IR spectra as shown in Figures 1 and 2, respectively. The inventors also have developed a process for the preparation of the amoφhous form of esomeprazole salts, including the esomeprazole magnesium salt, by recovering the amoφhous esomeprazole salt from a solution thereof in a suitable solvent by spray drying. The resulting amoφhous form of salts of esomeprazole include, for example, Na, Mg, Li, K, Ca, and N(R)4, where R is hydrogen or an alkyl group with 1-4 carbon atoms. The inventors also have developed pharmaceutical compositions that contain the amoφhous form of the esomeprazole salts, including the esomeprazole magnesium salt, in admixture with one or more solid or liquid pharmaceutical diluents, carriers, and/or excipients. These pharmaceutical compositions may be used for the treatment of gastric acid-related diseases by inhibition of gastric acid secretion.
In general, the solution of esomeprazole salt may be obtained by dissolving a crystalline esomeprazole salt in a suitable solvent. Alternatively, such a solution may be obtained directly from a reaction in which esomeprazole salt is formed. The solvent may be removed from the solution by a technique which includes, for example, distillation, distillation under vacuum, evaporation, spray drying, and freeze drying.
In one aspect, a salt of esomeprazole in amoφhous form is recovered from the solution using a spray drying technique. A Mini- Spray Dryer (Model: Buchi 190,
Switzerland) can be used. The Buchi 190 Mini-Spray Dryer operates on the principle of nozzle spraying in a parallel flow, i.e., the sprayed product and the drying gas flow in the same direction. The drying gas can be air or inert gases such as nitrogen, argon and carbon dioxide. In another aspect, a salt of esomeprazole in amoφhous form can be recovered from the solution using a freeze drying technique. A freeze dryer (Model: Virtis Genesis SQ Freeze Dryer) can be used in this technique. The Virtis Genesis SQ Freeze Dryer operates on the principle of lyophilization, i.e., a process of stabilizing initially wet materials (aqueous solution or suspensions) by freezing them, then subliming the ice while simultaneously desorbing some of the bound moisture (primary drying). Following removal of the ice, desoφtion may be continued (secondary drying). This process may be carried out under vacuum.
The term "suitable solvent" includes any solvent or solvent mixture in which esomeprazole salt, including esomeprazole magnesium, is soluble, including, for example, nitriles, cyclic ethers, lower alkanol, ketones, esters, chlorinated solvents, acetonitrile and mixtures thereof. Examples of alcohols include methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, and the like. Examples of halogenated hydrocarbons include dichloromethane, dichloroethane, dibromoethane, and the like. Examples of nitrile include acetonitrile and the like. Examples of cyclic ethers include tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, and the like. Examples of alkanol include those primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols having from one to six carbon atoms. Suitable lower alkanol solvents include methanol, ethanol, denatured spirit, n-propanol, isopropanol, n-butanol, isobutanol and t-butanol. Examples of ketones or esters include solvents such as acetone, 2-butanone, 4-methylpentan-2-one, ethyl acetate and n-butylacetate. A suitable chlorinated solvent includes one or both of dichloromethane and chloroform. Mixtures of all of these solvents are also contemplated.
An organic amine or ammonia may optionally be added to the solution of esomeprazole salt, including esomeprazole magnesium, before spray drying. The organic amine may be one or more of diethylamine, triethylamine, and the like. One puφose of adding the organic amine or ammonia is to provide stability to the esomprazole during processing.
If crystalline esomeprazole magnesium is used as a starting material it may be in the form of any of the various polymoφhic forms known in the prior art including dihydrate form A, dihydrate form B, trihydrate, etc. Esomeprazole magnesium may be prepared by any of the known methods such as those cited in U.S. Patent Nos. 5,714,504; 6,124,464; and 6,369,085. A solution of esomeprazole magnesium obtained in situ during the preparation process may be used as such for spray drying. The spray drying may be accomplished using a spray dryer which operates on the principle of nozzle spraying in a parallel flow, i.e., the sprayed product and the drying gas flow in the same direction. The drying gas can be air or one or more inert gases such as nitrogen, argon, and carbon dioxide. Moreover, the product obtained may be further or additionally dried to achieve the desired moisture values. For example, the product may be further or additionally dried in a tray drier, dried under vacuum and/or in a Fluid Bed Dryer. The resulting amoφhous form of esomeprazole salt and, in particular, esomeprazole magnesium, may be formulated into ordinary dosage forms such as, for example, tablets, capsules, pills, solutions, etc. In these cases, the medicaments can be prepared by conventional methods with conventional pharmaceutical excipients. In addition to the common dosage forms set out above, the amoφhous form of esomeprazole magnesium may also be administered by controlled release means and/or delivery devices.
Further, the amoφhous esomeprazole salt dosage forms described herein can be used in a method for treatment of gastric acid related diseases. The method of treatment includes administering to a mammal in need of treatment a dosage form that includes a therapeutically effective amount of the amoφhous form of esomeprazole salt, including the esomeprazole magnesium salt.
The present inventions are further illustrated by the following examples which are provided merely to be exemplary of the inventions and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Although these examples are directed to amoφhous esomeprazole magnesium, the principles described in these examples can be applied to other salts of amoφhous esomeprazole.

Esomeprazole magnesium trihydrate (200 g) was dissolved in a mixture of dichloromethane (1200 ml) and methanol (1200 ml) at 25-30°C. Any undissolved material was filtered off and triethylamine (2 ml) was added to the filtrate. The clear solution thus obtained was spray dried in a mini spray dryer (Model Buchi - 190) with an inlet temperature of 65-68°C and an outlet temperature of 22-42°C in 2 to 3 hours. The solid was further dried under vacuum at 60-65°C for 14 to 15 hours to yield 120 g of esomeprazole magnesium of amoφhous form. X-ray powder diffraction pattern showed a plain halo, which demonstrates the amoφhous nature of the product (Figure I). The following physical characteristics were obtained: Purity 99.77% by HPLC, Chiral purity 99.90 % by HPLC, SOR 145.9°, Mg content 3.4. Example 2
