Description
Low Dose HMG-CoA Reductase Inhibitor With Reduced Side Effects
FIELD QF THE INVENTION
[0001] The present invention relates to pharmaceutical formulations containing a HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor, (b) at least one of SNAC, SNAD, 5CNAC, 4CNAB, 4MOAC, 4HPO, 5-PPA, 3-TBA, 2-HPOD, 7-OPHA, 3-HPSB, 4-IBOA and 3-FPSB.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0002] HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, such as atorvastatin, have been used as pharmaceutical agents to lower cholesterol levels in people with or at risk for cardiovascular disease. These inhibitors lower cholesterol by inhibiting the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase which is the rate-limiting enzyme of the mevalonate pathway of cholesterol synthesis. Inhibition of this enzyme in the liver stimulates LDL receptors, resulting in an increased clearance of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) from the bloodstream and a decrease in blood cholesterol levels. [0003] One of the most popular HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors is atorvastatin which is currently marketed by Pfizer under the trade name Lipitor®, in tablets (10, 20, 40 or 80 mg) for oral administration. Tablets are white, elliptical, and film coated. In some countries it may also be known as: Sortis, Torvast, Totalip, Tulip, Xarator, Atorpic, or Liprimar. It is also packaged in combination with other drugs, such as is the case with Pfizer's Caduet. With 2005 sales of USS 12.2 billion under the brand name Lipitor®, it is the largest selling drug in the world (see Jerry Avorn, M.D., "Torcetrapib and Atorvastatin — Should Marketing Drive the Research Agenda?" New England Journal of Medicine Volume 352:2573-2576 June 23, 2005). [0004] However, atorvastatin, like other HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, causes many adverse drug reactions, including muscle pain, myalgia, muscle cramps, mild transient gastrointestinal symptoms, elevated hepatic transaminase concentrations, headache, insomnia, and/or dizziness. Myopathy and rhabdomyolysis can also occur in some patients. Such risk increases in patients with renal impairment, serious concurrent illness; and/or concomitant use of drugs which inhibit CYP3A4 (see Nissen S. et al., "Effect of very high- intensity statin therapy on regression of coronary atherosclerosis: the ASTEROID trial," JAMA 295 (13): 1556-65, 2006). So far, various efforts to improve the safety profile of
HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, such as atorvastatin, have failed. With millions of patients taking HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors every day, there is a need to reduce the side effects of these HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors.
SUMMARY QF THE INVENTION [0005] The present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition for lowering cholesterol in a human subject comprising (a) a HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor, (b) at least one of SNAC, SNAD, 5-CNAC, 4-CNAB, 4-MOAC, 4-HPO, 5-PPA, 3-TBA, 2-HPOD, 7- OPHA, 3-HPSB, 4-IBOA and 3-FPSB (c) optionally CoEnzyme Q and (d) optionally, a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient. [0006] The present invention also provides a solid pharmaceutical dosage form for lowering cholesterol level in a human subject comprising (a) from about 0.1 mg to about 200 mg of HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor, and (b) from about 25 mg to about 600 mg of at least one of SNAC, SNAD5 5CNAC, 4CNAB, 4MOAC, 4HPO5 5-PPA, 3-TBA, 2-HPOD, 7- OPHA, 3-HPSB, 4-IBOA and 3-FPSB. [0007] The present invention further provides a method of lowering cholesterol in a human subject, comprising the step of orally administering an effective amount of the pharmaceutical formulation which comprises (a) a HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor, (b) at least one of SNAC, SNAD, 5-CNAC, 4-CNAB, 4-MOAC, 4-HPO, 5-PPA, 3-TBA, 2-HPOD, 7- OPHA, 3-HPSB, 4-IBOA and 3-FPSB (c) optionally CoEnzyme Q and (d) optionally, a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.

Example 1
[0029] The study was conducted in fasted male Sprague-Dawley rats (n=5 for each group as seen in Fig. 1). Atorvastatin was designated ATV. ATV was administered alone to rates orally or intravenously (IV) as controls. For oral dosing, single dose of two mini-tablets were administrated at time 0, in the following manner: (a) each carrier (200 mg/kg) in combination with ATV (10 mg/kg) was administered orally to rats; (b) ATV (10 mg/kg) alone was administered orally to rats; and (c) Lipitor (lOmg/kg) alone was administered orally to rats. For IV dosing, a bolus shut of ATV alone (2mg/kg) was administered to a group of rats. Blood samples were collected by rail clipping pre-dosing (0 minute), and 5, 15, 30, 40, 50, 60, 120 and 240 minutes after dosing. The testing results are shown in Table 1.
Table 1. Increased Absorption of ATV (at 10 mg/kg) In The Presence Of Carriers
Example 2
[0030] The process of example 1 was repeated except that each carrier (200 mg/kg) in combination with ATV (40 mg/kg) was administered orally to rats. The testing results are shown in Table 2.
