Definitions
- the present invention aims at providing novel microparticulate oral forms for the modified release of active principle (s), abbreviated as "PA”, in particular of protein or peptide nature. It also relates to applications, particularly therapeutic or cosmetic, of these microparticulate oral forms.
- PA active principle
- the oral route is particularly appreciated, particularly with regard to its comfort for the patient and its compatibility with a wide variety of formulations.
- Multiparticulate oral dosage forms have already been developed to provide satisfaction in this regard. These multiparticulate forms are generally in the form of microparticles or microcapsules whose core, containing the active ingredient or a mixture of active ingredients, is covered with a coating whose composition and / or thickness are precisely adjusted to control the release. of this asset.
- microparticulate systems consisting of a plurality of microcapsules generally less than 2000 ⁇ m in diameter are thus particularly effective in ensuring a delayed and controlled release.
- WO 03/03878 proposes a microparticulate system for the oral administration of at least one active agent and whose release is controlled over time and as a function of the pH via the chemical nature of the envelope encapsulating the heart of the microparticles which contains the active.
- this envelope is formed of a material comprising at least one hydrophilic polymer bearing ionized groups at neutral pH, such as, for example, a copolymer of (meth) acrylic acid and alkyl (meth) acrylate and at least one hydrophobic compound such as vegetable hydrogenated wax.
- a material comprising at least one hydrophilic polymer bearing ionized groups at neutral pH, such as, for example, a copolymer of (meth) acrylic acid and alkyl (meth) acrylate and at least one hydrophobic compound such as vegetable hydrogenated wax.
- microparticulate systems are particularly useful for reliably controlling, on the one hand, the transport of the active ingredient they convey through the gastrointestinal tract and, on the other hand, the release of the latter at the level of the small intestine or, where appropriate, the stomach level for example, are unfortunately not suitable for the transport of assets that have a stability and / or reduced absorption.
- This lack of stability may be the consequence of too rapid degradation due to exposure to an aggressive environment such as gastrointestinal light which has a very acidic pH and / or contains enzymes active on these assets.
- the reduced absorption it can also be the fact of a very low solubility or insufficient permeability of the epithelial membrane vis-à-vis the asset.
- the object of the present invention is, in particular, to propose a novel oral microparticulate system aimed at solving these problems and therefore particularly useful for the vectorization of assets such as proteins, glycoproteins, peptides, polysaccharides, lipopolysaccharides, oligo or polynucleotides as well as small molecules, in particular hydrophobes.
- one aspect of the present invention is to provide an oral form consisting mainly of reservoir type microparticles releasably releasing an active principle itself non-covalently associated, at least in part, with nanoparticles of at least one polymer, abbreviated as "POM".
- This system differs from traditional tank-type microparticle systems that release the active ingredient they contain in an unassociated form.
- the present invention relates to a microparticulate oral form, useful for conditioning at least one active principle and the in vivo release of this active ingredient according to a regulated release profile as a function of pH and / or time, comprising at least microparticles having a core containing at least said active principle and coated with at least one coating layer conditioning said release profile of said active ingredient characterized in that the coating layer is formed of a material comprising at least one polymer A having a solubilization pH value in the pH range of 5 to 7 associated with at least one hydrophobic compound B, and
- said active principle present in said core of the microparticles, is at least partly non-covalently associated with nanoparticles formed from at least one POM polymer comprising a hydrophilic hydrocarbon chain carrying one or more hydrophobic groups (G) or a chain amphiphilic hydrocarbon.
- conditioning means the ability of the microparticles according to the invention to contain and convey said active ingredient.
- the invention also relates, according to another of its aspects, to a process for the preparation of microparticles which is useful for conditioning at least one active ingredient and the in vivo release of this active ingredient according to a pH-regulated and / or controlled release profile.
- microparticles having a core containing at least said active ingredient and coated with at least one coating layer conditioning said release profile of said active agent, said method comprising at least the steps of: a) disposing of least one active ingredient non-covalently associated with nanoparticles formed of at least one POM polymer comprising a hydrophilic hydrocarbon chain carrying one or more hydrophobic groups (G) or comprising an amphiphilic hydrocarbon chain, b) forming from the nanoparticles of the step a) a core comprising said nanoparticles and one or more excipients, c) forming, from at least one polymer e A having a solubilization pH value in the pH range of 5 to 7 and at least one hydrophobic compound B, a coating layer disposed around the core formed in step b), and d) recovering the expected microparticles.

It can be advantageously carried out by spraying in fluidized air bed on the nanoparticles of step a) at least one polymer A having a pH value solubilizing agent in the pH range of 5 to 7 associated with at least one hydrophobic compound B.
- the present invention results more particularly from the observation by the inventors that an incorporation of an active ingredient in a form associated with nanoparticles of at least one POM polymer according to the invention in a controlled release microparticulate system as defined previously is feasible and that it is possible to release this associated PA / POM form at its absorption site, usually the intestine, with increased bioavailability and / or absorption duration (s) at the of the intestine.

- all these systems do not allow to adjust a release profile as a function of the time and / or pH of the asset they carry, nor to protect this active against gastric juices and therefore does not prove to be suitable for oral administration.
- the microparticles can release the PA / POM nanoparticles for less than 12 hours, preferably less than 6 hours or even less than 2 hours.
- the microparticles release into the intestinal lumen the nanoparticles loaded with active ingredient PA / POM over a short period of time, for example less than 2 hours, or better still less at 1 o'clock.

- the nanoparticles are not affected by a prolonged residence time in the acidic medium, and moreover, their individualization is preserved therein, which makes it possible to overcome any risk of subsequent release of these nanoparticles at the same time. state of aggregates.
- the coating layer is precisely for this purpose formed of a material comprising at least one polymer A having a solubilization pH value in the pH range of 5 to 7 associated with at least one hydrophobic compound B and in particular such that defined below. As is apparent from the following, this efficiency is enhanced by adjusting the thickness of the coating layer formed.

- the controlled release of the nanoparticles from the microparticles is ensured by the coating surrounding the core of each reservoir particle.
