- the present invention is directed to a delivery vehicle containing nanoparticles.
- the present invention is further directed to a pharmaceutical composition, comprising said drug delivery vehicle.
- the invention pertains to a method for manufacturing of said delivery vehicles as well as to the use of these vehicles in medicine.
- osmotic agents when given peripherally (such as by intravenous injection), result in the opening of the bbb.
- some drugs acting on the CNS can change the permeability of the bbb for other substances; cholinomimetic arecolines, for instance, have been reported to induce changes of drug penetration through the bbb [Saija, A., Princi, P., De Pasquale, R., Costa, G., "Arecoline but not haloperidol produces changes in the permeability of the blood-brain barrier in the rat.” J. Pharm. Pha. 42:135-138(1990)].
- macromolecules such as proteins
- macromolecules do not pass the bbb at all.
- macromolecule active site i.e., the portion of the molecule which triggers the biologically desirable event
- size is one of the factors in allowing permeability of the bbb
- Other modifications of macromolecules to attempt passage of the bbb include glycating the proteins, thereby enhancing their permeability of the bbb, or forming a prodrug.
- U.S. Patent No. 5,260,308 discusses glycating proteins
- U.S. Patent No. 4,933,324 and WO 89/07938 disclose the formation of a prodrug.
- These prodrugs are formed from a fatty acid carrier and a neuroactive drug which is unable to pass the bbb on its own.
- a similar system is disclosed inWO89/07938.
- Still another approach is the implantation of controlled release polymers which release the active ingredient from a matrix-system directly into the nervous tissue.
- this approach is invasive and requires surgical intervention if implanted directly into the brain or spinal cord [see Sabel et a!., U.S. Patent No.4,883,666; and Sabel et al, U.S. Patent Application Serial No. 07/407,930].

- nanoparticles which carry the drug encapsulated within a polymeric material, however, the only experiments provided are directed to nanoparticles having a polymeric core particle, on which the drug and subsequently a surfactant coating is applied.
- WO 95/022963 does neither contain any information regarding a multilayered polymer coating on a core particle comprising a drug, nor regarding the precise thickness of the coating layer.
- the nanoparticles used therein are designed as ,,targeting system" having the object to allow non-penetrating and penetrating drugs to pass the bbb more easily.

- the average diameter of the nanoparticles is typically less than about 300 nm, preferably in the range of 100 nm to 150 nm, and more preferably 10 nm to 50 nm, with a narrow size distribution.
- the polymeric core may have a bioactive, or bioinactive, agent or combination of agents, incorporated, embedded, entrained, or otherwise made part of the polymer matrix comprising the nanoparticle core. The incorporated bioactive agent is released as the polymer hydrolyzes and dissolves, thereby biodegrading.
- the sustained release is not achieved by one or more polymeric layers coated on a drug core, but by the degradation of the polymer matrix, in which the drug is distributed.
- the bioactive agent is added to the polymeric material in forming the nanoparticles. Therefore, it is an object of the invention to provide a delivery vehicle for a pharmaceutical agent which can be specifically adapted to desired release characteristics. It is in particular an object of the invention to provide a delivery vehicle which is suitable to be used for varying medical conditions and which is able to specifically cross the major physiological or biological barriers of the animal or human body and which subsequently is showing modified release characteristics such as sustained release or prolonged release of the drug in the target tissue.

- the present invention provides a method for the manufacture of a delivery vehicle for a pharmaceutical agent, comprising the steps of: a) preparing particles of one or more pharmaceutical agents; b) preparing a suspension of said particles in a suitable solvent; c) adding said suspension to a mixture containing a liquid and monomers of one or more biodegradable polymeric materials and polymerizing said monomers in order to provide a polymeric coating on said particles, and isolating said nanoparticles;

- step c) the solution of said agents or the one or more pharmaceutical agents in pure form are added to a mixture containing a liquid and monomers of one or more biodegradable polymeric materials and polymerizing said monomers in order to provide nanoparticles.
- step b) a suspension is prepared, a system containing solid and fluid components is established. It is then essential that the pharmaceutical agent remains unsolved in that suspension.
- a hydrophilic pharmaceutical agent is used, it should be suspended in a lipohilic solvent or vice versa.
- the solid component preferably has the form of a crystal, in particular of a nanocrystal.
- the one or more pha ⁇ naceutical agents may be used in pure form in step c), for example in their natural state (fluid or solid, e.g. an oil or a powder).
- the method of the present invention will lead to nanoparticles, in which the one or more pharmaceutical agents are dispersed throughout the nanoparticles thus leading to a polymeric matrix by which the one or more pharmaceutical agents are released in vivo in a controlled way.
- the present invention for the first time presents a method of forming pharmaceutical agent containing nanoparticles, wherein the pharmaceutical agents are contacted and mixed with the monomers before the polymerisation step is performed. Therefore, the one or more pharmaceutical agents may be incorporated in a different way then in the prior art approaches, in which the agent usually is coated on the nanoparticles subsequent to the polymerisation step (thus not incorporating same into the particles).
- a preferred method of polymerisation is the miniemulsion technique as developed by K. Landfester et al.
- Miniemulsions are dispersions of critically stabilized oil droplets with a size between 50 and 500 nm prepared by shearing a system containing oil, water, a surfactant and a hydrophobe. Polymerizations in such miniemulsions result in particles which have about the same size as the initial droplets.
- the principle of miniemulsion polymerization is schematically shown in Figure 1 ( K. Landfester, Polyreactions in miniemulsions, Macromol. Rapid Comm. 2001, 896-936. K. Landfester, N. Bechthold, F. Tiarks, and M. Antonietti, Formulation and stability mechanisms of polymerizable miniemulsions. Macromolecules 1999, 32, 5222. K. Landfester, Recent Developments in Miniemulsions - Formation and Stability Mechanisms. Macromol. Symp. 2000, 150, 171 ).
- nanoparticles in the prior art were prepared for example by what is generically termed as an "in-solvent emulsification-evaporation technique" using single (oil-in-water) or multiple emulsifications (water-in-oil-in-water) depending upon whether the incorporated pharmaceutical agent is hydrophobic or hydrophilic (as explained above).
- the solvent is evaporated from the emulsion.
- the nanoparticles are separated from the remainder by centrifugation, or preferably ultracentrifugation (120,000 to 145,000 g), washed with water, and re-centrifuged and decanted.
- Organic solvents which remain in the nanoparticles formed may cause problems in subsequent in vivo applications (what is not the case in the miniemulsion method explained above).
- the present invention is also and preferably directed to a method of preparing nanoparticles containing the steps of: providing a reaction system comprising O and W type liquid phases, a stabilizer, one or more pharmaceutical agents and polymerizable monomers, forming an O/W type miniemulsion, and polymerizing said monomers in order to form nanoparticles.
- the nanoparticles of the present invention are formed by a "miniemulsion method", which is per se well known and is, for example, disclosed in K. Landfester, ,,Polyreactions in miniemulsions", Macromol. Rapid Comm. 2001 , 896-936. K. Landfester, N. Bechthold, F. Tiarks, and M. Antonietti, ,,Formulation and stability mechanisms of polymerizable miniemulsions”.
- This technology basically differs from the well known conventional methods by involving a different order of manufacturing steps: in this approach, a miniemulsion, containing dispersed hydrophobic, monomer containing droplets in a hydrophilic continous phase, are formed to polymeric particles. In the conventional approach, the polymers are directly formed from the solution containing monomers.
- the term ,miniemulsion as used herein generally means a technology, by which a dispersion is made containing a continuous W (hydrophilic) and an O (hydrophobic) phase, dispersed in the continuous phase. Further, this term is directed to emulsion droplets formed of 1 to 1.000 nm, usually approximately between 50 and 500 nm (the size of the particles following polymerization is identical or almost identical).
- nanoparticle suspensions of high solid content range: 15%-24%) and thus in a high yield (60-96%), which is very important in terms of up-scaling.
- the process is reproducible.
- the mean diameter of the generated nanoparticles is 200-300 nm (range ⁇ 1 ⁇ m).
- the O phase is consisting of 6 g monomer + 250 mg hydrophobe
- the W phase is 24 g 0.01 N HCl + stabilizer
- the maximum content of solids will be 25% w/w (6/24 x 100) corresponding to a yield of 100%.
- a content of 20% w/w then corresponds to a yield of 80%.
- the remaining 20% are represented by monomers, which were lost during polymerization, for example by polymerizing at the vessel surface or at the homogenizer or the like.
- the one or more pharmaceutical agents and the monomers are contained in the O phase.
- the pharmaceutical agents are finely distributed into the nanoparticles formed by the polymerisation step.
- the one or more pharmaceutical agents are present in the W phase and the monomers are contained in the O phase. It turned out that also in this case, a remarkable amount of the pharmaceutical agent is incorporated into the nanoparticles formed.
- the pharmaceutical agents contained in the W phase are intimately contacted with the O phase by preparing the miniemulsion, for example by applying high shear forces, leading to a distribution of the agent also in the O phase.
- solution mediators may be used to bring agents into solution, which under normal circumstances would not dissolve in a sufficient amount in the solvent.
- examples for this group of substances are dimethylsulfoxide, dimethylformamide, polysorbate 80, vitamine E, polyethylenglycole (PEG 400), Cremophor, or glycerol.
- the stabilizer used is contained in the W phase.
- the already known miniemulsion technique as, for example, disclosed in Landfester et al. (supra), may be used to prepare the miniemulsion. This may, for example be done by at first combining monomers in an O phase and a W phase and a stabilizer (defined below). It is noted that the W phase may contain further ingredients, for example HCl for setting a suitable pH value. Second, the reaction system may be mixed by, for example, a homogenizer or the like, in order to mix all ingredients.
- the preparation of the miniemulsion itself is performed by applying high shear forces to the reaction system, for example by ultrasound and high pressure homogenizers. Furthermore, the shear forces may be applied for a time range of from 1-5 min. depending on the size of the reaction system and the homogenizer used. Basically, a time range of between 2 and 4 min. is regarded as being sufficient.
- the ultrasound homogenizer may have an amplitude of about 60-100%, preferably about 70%.
- the temperatures used in this process are preferably from -1 to 5 °C, preferably O 0 C.
- the weight ratio of O to W phase is from 15-40 % w/w, preferably 20-30 % w/w and more preferably about 25 % w/w.
- the polymerisation process is started, for example by simply increasing the pH to a value of pH 7,0 or the like. This may be done, whenever PBCA monomers are used in the reaction system and the pH increase is performed, for example, by adding a sufficient amount of K 2 CO 3 to the reaction system or by pouring the prepared miniemulsion into an aqueous solution of NaOH.
- the O phase is containing a hydrophobe, preferably selected from olive oil, miglyol and/or hexadecane.
- the amount of hydrophobe is usually relatively small and should be sufficient to prevent Ostwald ripening (about 2-10% w/w based on the overall weight of the O-phase (further containing the monomer)).
- the particles in step a) are prepared by spray drying a solution containing the one or more pharmaceutical agents.
- the particles in step a) may be prepared by grinding and optionally sieving or by high-pressure homogenization of the one or more pharmaceutical agents.
- the liquid used in step c) preferably comprises a lipophilic solvent, preferably n-hexane, hexadecane or miglyol.
- the method of the present invention contains an additional step, wherein the stabilizer is at least partially removed from the obtained nanoparticles.
- This can preferably be done by dialysis or centrifugation.
- the stabilizers may be at least partially removed after the final nanoparticles were formed.
- an ,,excess" of stabilizers can be removed which is not required for maintaining the stability of the nanoparticles, but can cause potential risks for in vivo applications. It is assumed that the lowest possible amount of stabilizers in the nanoparticles should be regarded as having the lowest in vivo risk.
- the present invention is directed to a delivery vehicle, which is obtainable by the method as defined above.
- the present invention further provides the use of the delivery vehicle or a pharmaceutical composition as defined herein for the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of diseases and conditions, requiring a pharmaceutical agent to cross one or more physiological barrieres. It is in particular used for the treatment of diseases corresponding to the drugs listed hereinabove.
- the delivery vehicle will find application in the treatment of diseases related to the CNS. Furthermore, this includes the treatment of AIDS, since in many people with advanced AIDS - possibly a third of adults and half of all children - HIV also infiltrates and harms the brain, triggering HIV-associated dementia.
- the disorder is marked by poor concentration, decreased memory and slow thinking and movements. However, it is particularly hard to target the virus in the brain.
- the present invention may open up new therapeutic successes by delivering anti-HIV agents to the brain.

- Solution 2 is added to solution 1 and the miniemulsion is immediately formed by ultrasonication (amplitude 70%, 0°C) of the resulting suspension for 2 min. Then the polymerisation of the monomer droplets is initiated by rapidly changing the pH value from 1 to 7 by adding the miniemulsion into 38,0 ml of 0,1 mol I "1 aqueous NaOH solution (100 ml flask). The obtained suspension is then stirred for 5 min.
- the nanoparticle suspension possesses a solid content of 135,4 mg/ml and a mean particle size (photon correlation spectroscopy) of 125,9 ⁇ 1 ,1 nm.
- 1 ml of the formed nanoparticle suspension 13,54% (w/w) is diluted to 1 % (w/w). Then 1 ml of the resulting suspension is centrifuged for 30 min. at 20.000 rpm to remove possible unbound Vitamin E. The amount of free Vitamin E in the supernatant is determined by uv- spectroscopy. The amount of encapsulated Vitamin E is determined by using uv- spectroscopy. Therefore the pellet is dissolved in 1 ml Ethylacetate.
- the total amount detected by these methods could be determined to be 87% (1 ,60 mg related to 10 mg NP), whereas the amount of encapsulated Vitamin E was found to be 33,5 % (0,616 mg/10 mg NP) and the amount of free Vitamin E was found to be 53,5% (0,98 mg related to 10 mg/ml nanoparticles).
- Compound A is a hydrophobic pha ⁇ neutical compound.

- Nanocrystals “Compound A” is dispersed in a 1% (w/w) aqueous polysorbate 80 solution using ultrasonication (1 min.). The nanocrystals of "Compound A” are obtained via high-pressure homogenisation by applying an appropriate amount of cycles at increasing pressures. The resulting nanocrystals can be purified via dialysis.
- Solution 2 Nanocrystalline "Compound A”, either purified or not purified, Hexadecane and ⁇ -Butyl- ⁇ -cyanacrylate (Indermil) are added into a flask. The flask is pivoted until a homogeneous suspension is formed.
- Solution 1 is added to solution 2 and the miniemulsion is immediately formed by ultrasonication (amplitude 70%, O 0 C) of the resulting suspension for 2 min. Then the polymerisation of the monomer droplets is initiated by rapidly changing the pH value from 1 to 7 by adding the miniemulsion into 0,1 mol I "1 aqueous NaOH solution. The obtained suspension is then stirred for 5 min. The solid content of the formed nanoparticle suspension is determined gravimetrically and the mean particle size is determined using photon correlation spectroscopy.
