Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to the field of drug delivery systems for ncuroactive steroid anaesthetic agents. More particularly, anaesthetic and sedative compositions are provided in the form of host/guest preparations comprising one or more neuroactive steroid anaesthetics and a cyclodextrin or a modified form thereof.
- Drug delivery systems aim to provide the required amount of drug systemically or to a targeted site for a time and under conditions sufficient to have the desired effect.
- Some drug delivery systems require carrier materials to mitigate particular undesirable properties of the drugs.
- One such type of carrier molecule is a cyclodextrin which acts as a host for a selected guest molecule.
- Cyclodextrins are cyclic oligosaccharides with hydroxy] groups on their outer surface and a void central cavity which has a lipophilic character. Cyclodextrins are capable of forming inclusion complexes with hydrophobic molecules. The stability of the resulting host/guest complex depends on how readily the guest molecule occupies the central cavity of the host.
- cyclodextrins are ⁇ -, ⁇ - and ⁇ - cyclodextrins consisting of 6, 7 and 8 a-l ,4-linked glucose units, respectively. Cyclodextrins have relatively low solubility in water and organic solvents and this limits their use in pharmaceutical formulations.
- Alphaxalone is a potent neuroactive steroid anaesthetic currently used in veterinary medicine (Child el al. , British Journal of Anaesthesia 43.2- 13, 1971 ).
- Alphaxalone was widely used around the world as an intravenous anaesthetic together with alphadolone [Althesin; Alfathesin] in human patients until 1983. Although these anaesthetics have a high therapeutic index, they were nevertheless withdrawn from clinical practice due to occasional, unpredictable yet severe anaphylactoid reactions to a polyelhoxylated castor oil excipient (Cremophor EL [Registered Trademark]).
- propofol di-isopropyl phenol
- Propofol can be contraindicated in certain at risk patients due to its lowering effect on blood pressure, the effect it has on reducing cardiac output and it can adversely affect respiratory control.
- propofol is formulated in a lipid emulsion which can support microbial growth if contaminated. The formulation cannot, in fact, be sterilized.
- microbially contaminated propofol formulations have resulted in patients becoming infected.
- One other, issue with the current propofol formulation is the pain induced following or during intravenous injection.
- a neuroactive steroid anaesthetic has the potential for being more efficacious with fewer side effects than propofol.
- the present invention provides a host/guest complex formulation comprising a neuroactive steroid anaesthetic and a cyclodextrin or modified form thereof for use in inducing anaesthesia or sedation in mammalian subjects.
- the neuroactive steroid anaesthetic is sparingly soluble.
- the host/guest complex formulation is, therefore, a drug delivery system for a neuroactive steroid anaesthetic.

- neuroactive steroid anaesthetic When a neuroactive steroid anaesthetic is formulated with a cyclodextrin, it is referred to as "neuroactive steroid anaestheticcD 1 '-
- An example is Phaxanco, which comprises alphaxalone formulated with a cyclodextrin which in this case is (7) sul obutyl ether ⁇ - cyclodextrin.
- Other examples include pregnanolonecD and alphadolonecD
- Alphaxalone was formulated as 6ml clear colorless liquid containing:
- Such a preparation made by Jurox Pty, Newcastle NSW Australia has a published LD 5 o, the dose of alphaxalone that causes death in 50% of rats when given intravenously, of 19mg/kg body weight, a figure very significantly below that shown here for alphaxalone formulated in sulfobutyl ether ⁇ -cyclodextrin [Alfaxan CD-RTU Material safety Data Sheet; Jurox Pty, Newcastle NSW Australia].
- Blood taken from the carotid artery or tail at a number of time intervals after this injection is analyzed for alphaxalone blood levels. These are fitted to a three compartment pharmacokinetic model and mean ⁇ sem for key parameters are calculated for both preparations of steroid anaesthetic.
- each rat received an intravenous injection from a range of doses of either: propofol ( 1 0 - mg/ml in 10% w/v Intralipid emulsion; Diprivan [Registered Trademark]); Althesin [Registered Trademark) (alphaxalone 9mg/ml plus alphadolone acetate 3 mg/ml in 20% w/v CremophorEL); or PhaxancD (alphaxalone l Omg/ml in a 1 :2 molar complexation ratio with Captisol (Registered Trademark) - (7) sulfobutyl ether ⁇ -cyclodexlrin). The following were assessed at regular time intervals after the intravenous injection:
- tail pinch response scored as: 1 normal; 2 weak; 3 just present; 4 none - this was a measure of onset and duration of surgical anaesthesia;
- Phaxanc is an effective intravenous anaesthetic causing fast onset of general anaesthesia after intravenous injection.
- each rat received an intravenous injection from a range of doses of either: Althesin (Registered Trademark) (alphaxalone 9mg/ml plus alphadolone acetate 3 mg/ml in 20% CremophorEL); or PhaxancD (alphaxalone l Omg/ml in a 1 :2 molar complexation ratio ⁇ with Caplisol (Registered Trademark) - (7)sulfobutyl ether ⁇ -cyclodextrin). The number of rats that died was recorded for each group of 10 rats given the same dose of drug. Results from groups of ten rats treated with the same anaesthetic and dose were combined for statistical purposes. The graph of the raw data is shown in Figure 2 [% rats died in each dosage group v dose].
- alphaxalone was much less toxic as assessed by lethality compared with alphaxalone formulated with CrcmophorEL (Althesin [Registered Trademark]).
- a dose of 52mg/kg alphaxalone as Althesin (Registered Trademark) caused all 10 rats in that group to die but 64mg/kg alphaxalone caused no deaths in the 10 rats which received that dose of alphaxalone formulated with (7) sulfobutyl ether ⁇ - cyclodcxtrin (Phaxanco).
- alphaxalone formulated in (7) sulfobutyl ether ⁇ -cyclodextrin (Phaxanco) showed a ceiling effect for lethality; when the dose of alphaxalone in this preparation was increased to 71 , 78 and then 84 mg/kg only 20% of rats died in each group.
- the dose of alphaxalone in this formulation that caused death in 50% and 95% rats (the LD50 and LD95, respectively).
- both of these values are greater than 84mg/kg which is more than double the equivalent values for Althesin (Registered Trademark) and four times the value of the LD 50 for alphaxalone formulated in hydroxypropyl ⁇ -cyclodextrin manufactured by Jurox [Alfaxan CD-RTU Material Safety Data Sheet. Jurox Pty, Newcastle NSW Australia].
- the question posed by the unique property of the alphaxalone sulfobutyl ether cyclodextrin complex exhibiting a ceiling effect for toxicity is whether this is caused by limiting the amount of alphaxalone released from the complex or whether there occurs a "mopping up" of alphaxalone molecules that might otherwise penetrate the brain to cause toxicity, by excess uncomplexed cyclodextrin molecules freed up by alphaxalone metabolism by the liver.
- the effect of the latter would be predicted to cause a progressive decrease in the level of free alphaxalone as the concentration of uncomplexed sulfobutyl ether cyclodextrin increased as a result of:
- Althesin (Registered Trademark) leads to an instantaneous dispersal of alphaxalone in the plasma but, since anaesthesia is caused by drug injection in one circulation and also alphaxalone is cleared from the blood by the liver on first pass, the level achieved by the mixing in the plasma will only reach 30% of the theoretical maximum assuming instantaneous mixing.
- alphaxalone is soluble in water to 0.03mg/ml
- alphaxalone is 35% protein bound in plasma
- Althesin (Registered Trademark) and Phaxann) are equipotent; a minimum of 4.3mg/kg alphaxalone by either preparation cause sleep in most (95%) rats;
- ECF extracellular fluid
- Alphaxalone is only released from the Captisol into an aqueous environment i f the level of free alphaxalone in the aqueous environment is less than saturation i.e., ⁇ 0.03mg/ml [fact 1 ].
- Example 9 When the second dose of anaesthetic was administered in Example 9 the rat was starting to recover from the anaesthetic because some free alphaxalone had been metabolized by the liver, some free alphaxalone had been redistributed to the KCF and some of the Captisol containing alphaxalone had also redistributed to the HCF. ⁇ Thus, the free alphaxalone level fell and alphaxalone left the brain so causing awakening. Thus, a further dose was given. Unlike the first dose, there was still alphaxalone in the blood so only some of the alphaxalone was released from the complex to bring the free alphaxalone level back to 0.03mg/ml; the brain is reloaded and sleep follows.
- the guest is a compound that causes anaesthesia at a free drug level which is equal to its aqueous solubility
- the guest is a compound that has a high therapeutic index so that the free drug level is well below the toxic level.
- the neuroactive steroid anaesthetic pregnanolone was mixed with 13% w/v sulfobutyl ether ⁇ -cyclodextrin (Captisol [Registered Trademark]) in 0.9% saline to form pregnanolonecD-
- the pregnanolone dissolved incompletely at a concentration of l Omg/ml, and unlike alphaxalone, it only went into solution after 4 hours of continuous stirring. The solution was opalescent. This observation indicates that all neuroactive steroids do not interact with (7) sulfobutyl ether ⁇ -cyclodextrin in the same way.
- PregnanolonecD is an intravenous anaesthetic but of long duration. It causes anaesthesia induction immediately after intravenous injection. This effect is dose related and it is possible to cause sufficient CNS depression to lead to surgical anaesthesia.
- the neuroactive steroid anaesthetic alphadolone was mixed with 1 3% w/v sulfobutyl ether ⁇ -cyclodextrin (Captisol) in 0.9% w/v saline to form alphadolonecD.
- the alphadolone dissolved completely at a concentration of 1 Omg/ml, but unlike alphaxalone, it only went into solution after 4 hours of continuous stirring. This observation indicates that all neuroactive steroids do not interact with (7) sulfobutyl ether ⁇ -cyclodextrin in the same way.
- AlphadolonecD is an intravenous anaesthetic of short duration. It causes anaesthesia induction immediately after intravenous injection. This effect is dose related and it is possible to cause sufficient CNS depression to lead to surgical anaesthesia.
- Systolic and diastolic blood pressures were measured before and after these injections. Each measurement was calculated as a percentage change from the pre-anaesthetic levels for that rat.
- Figures 1 1 and 12 show the percentage changes against time for each of the cardiovascular parameters in each treatment group.
- the dose of drug is determined from a calculation schedule (see below) relying on the response of the previous patient to the last dose of that drug used - anaesthesia achieved or not based on a measurement of 50 for the bispectral index of the electroencephalogram (BIS value).
- the patient has an intravenous cannula in the right hand for drug administration and another for blood withdrawal for samples for measurements of blood levels of drug. That arm and the anaesthetist ' administering the anaesthetic has no communication with the test subject or a second anaesthetist who is in contact with the subject and who is responsible for general care of the subject as well as physiological monitoring.
- the arm and the drug administering anaesthetist are separated by a curtain from the anaesthetist caring for the subject as well as the subject and anaesthetic nurse present.
- the first, drug injecting anaesthetist only communicates that the anaesthetic injection is about to start by ringing a bell and the caring anaesthetist only communicates with the drug administering anaesthetist to say whether a BIS value of 50 or less was achieved after that subject leaves the room at the end of the experiment.
- Blood pressure, systolic and diastolic, and pulse rate using non invasive methods measured every 1 minute for 5 minutes, every 2.5 minutes for a further 10 minutes and every 5 minutes thereafter.
- Oxygen saturation of the blood measured with a pulse oximeter probe placed on the ear lobe of the left ear.
- the subject breathes air unless oxygen saturation levels fall below 93% at which time oxygen is given by face mask and anaesthetic circuit. Breathing is assisted if apnoea occurs and persists for longer than 30 seconds. The occurrence of low oxygen saturations and apnoea are noted.
- Blood taken for analysis of alphaxalone blood levels at 0.5, 1 .0, 1 .5, 2, 5 10, 1 , 30 and 60 minutes after anaesthetic injection.
- the randomi/.ed instruction will be to give propofol or alphaxalone. If this is the first subject to receive the drug they are given: propofol 2 mg/kg; alphaxalone 0.5 mg/kg.
- the dose would be 3 mg kg and for alphaxalone 0.75 mg/kg. If the first subject did achieve a BIS of 50 or less, then for propofol the dose would be 1 mg/kg and for alphaxalone 0.25 mg/kg.
- the dose of drug for the next subject to receive this drug will be mid way between the dose for the last subject given that drug and the dose given to the most recent previous subject given that drug and who did not achieve a BIS of 50 or below.
- the dose of drug for the next subject to receive this drug will be mid way between the dose for the last subject given that drug and the dose given to the most recent previous subject given that drug who did achieve a BIS of 50 or below.
- Alphaxalone causes general anaesthesia with BIS values ⁇ 50 achievable in one arm/brain circulation time.
