Definitions

  • the present invention is related to a pharmaceutical composition
  • a pharmaceutical composition comprising tiotropium, formoterol, ciclesonide, and/or pharmaceutically acceptable derivatives thereof and the use of this composition in the treatment of respiratory diseases particularly in asthma, allergic rhinitis and chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD).
  • COPD chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases
  • bronchia are the channels which function to distribute the inhaled air into the lung tissues.
  • respiratory diseases such as asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
  • stimulants such as allergen, infection, good and bad smell, smoke, genetic factors and exercise cause contractions in the airway muscles (bronchoconstruction) and/or excessive secretion in glands and results in contractions in the airway.
  • respiration gets more difficult as the inhaled air cannot be exhaled.
  • Corticosteroids which are used in the treatment of asthma and COPD are synthetic and strong anti-inflammatory drugs that are similar to natural corticosteroid hormones produced by adrenal glands. They prevent both the transcription of the inflammatory gene and the activation of the anti-inflammatory gene. In addition to this, they increase the transcription of ⁇ 2 receptors. Furthermore, corticosteroids prevent the tolerance that develops after a long- term application of ⁇ 2 agonists. Beclomathasone, budesonide, ciclesonide, flunisolide, fluticasone are among the steroids that are used for the treatment of respiratory diseases. Corticosteroids are not preferred in acute asthma crises as they do not have rapid onset of action.
  • corticosteroids may prevent growth in children, they are advised to be used in the lowest possible amount. Long-term use of corticosteroids may cause cataract and glaucoma. In addition, they may cause some serious side-effects such as osteoporosis, high cholesterol, edema, encepholalgia, weight gain, insomnia and some skin problems.
  • ⁇ 2 adrenergic agonists which are used in the treatment of respiratory diseases such as asthma and COPD affect the muscles around the air vessels by activating ⁇ 2 adrenergic receptors. They reduce or eliminate bronchospasm. Bronchodilator are categorized into two groups as long-acting and short-acting.
  • Short-acting beta-agonists such as salbutamol, levosalbutamol, prosaterol, fenoterol, terbutaline, pirbuterol, metoproterenol, bitolterol mesilate have a rather rapid onset of action such as 3-5 minutes and their duration of action is of 4-6 hours. As they have a rapid onset of action, they are given as relaxant but they should be taken very often since they have a short duration of action. Long-acting ⁇ 2 agonists have a slower onset of action compared to the other group but their duration of action is of 12 hours.
  • Salmeterol, formoterol, bambuterol and clenbuterol can be given as examples to long-acting ⁇ 2 agonists.
  • Long-acting 2 -agonists are often used in the treatment of patients who present asthma symptoms at nights and in the treatment of asthma stimulated by exercise.
  • ⁇ 2 agonists are known as the most effective agent in order to eliminate acute asthma symptoms.
  • One of the most important factors for their being used as symptomatolytic is their onset of action.
  • Some long-acting ⁇ 2 agonists can have the onset of action of short acting ⁇ 2 agonists when used at specific doses.
  • ⁇ 2 agonists affect the muscles above the air vessels. However, they might affect the muscles around the heart and the bones.
  • Anticholinergics are the other active agents which are utilized in the treatment of respiratory diseases. Anticholinergics influence large airways including the muscles above bronchia, while ⁇ 2 agonists influence small airways, in other words bronchioles. Anticholinergics such as ⁇ 2 agonists are categorized into two groups as long-acting and short-acting. Short-acting anticholinergics including ipratropium bromide and oxitropium bromide have an onset of action of 15 minutes and their duration of action is 6-8 hours. The long-acting anticholinergic agent is tiotropium. Tiotropium has an onset of action of 20 minutes and its duration of action is 24 hours. Thus, it is enough to take it once a day. Side effects of anticholinergics are weaker than the side effects of ⁇ 2 agonists.
  • combination drugs in the treatment of respiratory diseases such as asthma and COPD is very effective particularly in decreasing asthma attacks. It is possible that the severity or occurrence possibility of the abovementioned side effects decreases as the active substances that are used in combinations are more effective at lower doses compared to the active substances used alone. However, decreasing the side effects that arise from the active agents is not sufficient to provide effective treatment for respiratory diseases.

Furthermore, it was seen that in the formulation, that is constituted with active agents which have ratios in the range of 1: 0,1 : 2 to 1 : 3 : 40 , the adhesive force between the particles is less and hence, the amount of inhaled particles and efficacy of the formulation increases.

  • the components maintain their stability and furthermore, the medicament is in a stable form and is easily used by the patients.
  • the particle size of the agents should be adjusted. Although large particle size provides ease in manufacturing the dry powder, it may accumulate in throat and lead to insufficient intake of the medicament. Very fine particles, on the other hand, may reach the lungs. However, they might not have a good flow property which in turn causes problems in providing dose accuracy. To prevent these problems, the active agents should have an optimum average particle size. The inventors have found that tiotropium bromide with water content less than or equal to 2.5%, formoterol fumarate, ciclesonide having a mean particle size in the range of 1.5 to 4.5 ⁇ reaches the lungs effectively and also no problems related to flow properties of the dry powder are observed.
