Description

DESCRIPTION
TABLET FORMULATIONS COMPRISING A QUINONE DERIVATIVE ACTIVE AGENT
The present invention is related to pharmaceutical formulations in tablet form comprising a quinone derivative active agent, production method of said formulations and their areas of use.
The Prior Art
Idebenone is a quinone derivative drug which has the chemical formula of 2-(10- hydroxydecyl)-5,6-dimethoxy-3-methyl- cyclohexa-2,5-diene-l ,4-dione and developed by the firm Takeda in order to be used in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease and other mental disorders.
The active agent is marketed in 45 mg oral tablet form (Mnesis®) in the treatment of central nervous system disorders in Europe and in 150 mg oral tablet form ( Catena®) in the treatment of Friedreich's ataxia in Canada.
In addition to the indications given, effective use of the active agent in other indications (such as neuromuscular diseases, MELAS syndrome, primary MS, Leber 's Hereditary Optic Neuropathy and DMD-Duchenne muscular dystrophy) is also being investigated.
Idebenone is a lipophilic molecule which has very low solubility in aqueous media. In line with this, it is seen that the active agent in the drugs in tablet form obtained in the case that the formulations comprising the active agent are compressed in tablet form cannot dissolve in bodily fluid entirely.
Water solubility of an active agent is one of the most critical factors influencing the bioavailability of the pharmaceutical formulation comprising the active agent. Lipophilic active agents such as idebenone have poor bioavailability as they cannot dissolve in water. Low absorption and bioavailability of a drug prevents enabling efficient treatment.
In the prior art, a method which is frequently used for active agents having low bioavailability could be formulating the active agent in parenteral form. The patent applications US2010130619 and US2010129431 disclose parenteral idebenone formulations. However, it requires pretty hard and laborious production steps to formulate an active agent having low water-solubility for parenteral use. On the other hand, parental formulations are not generally preferred by patients due to their manner of application. Therefore, it is not preferable to produce this type of active agents in parenteral form.
In the prior art, there are other solutions in order to improve bioavailability of lipophilic drugs. The most known ones of these methods can be listed as changing the crystalline structure of the active agent by one of micronization, spraying or freezing methods or solubilize the active agent by using solubility enhancing agents, surfactants, complexing agents etc. in the formulations.
However, these methods are considerably laborious and costly as well as not certain to provide bioavailability in the obtained product.
For this reason, there is need to develop new formulations comprising idebenone which can provide high bioavailability, can be produced easily and are patient-friendly.
