Definitions

  • the present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions, in particular, it relates to orodispersible films.
  • the present invention further relates to film forming suspensions and to processes for preparing the orodispersible films and the film forming suspensions.
  • Oral films are characterized for example by the fact that they have a low thickness and a large surface and are able to disintegrate in short time in the oral cavity. Depending on the patient's needs, they can be taken anytime and anywhere and also discretely. Furthermore, a simultaneous intake of liquid is not necessary, because the salivary fluid in the oral cavity is sufficient to dissolve the film and release the drug.
  • Oral films containing pharmaceutical and non-pharmaceutical active ingredients, and processes for their preparation are described, for example, in WO 2007/009800, WO 2007/009801 and WO 03/01 1259.
  • a homogeneous distribution of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in the oral film is essential to achieve an excellent product complying with regulatory requirements.
  • API active pharmaceutical ingredient
  • a solution can be prepared by dissolving and re-stabilizing it by means of a solid solution with a polymer.
  • the API is poorly soluble a suspension has to be prepared. In such case, suspensions are frequently affected by the problems of sedimentation and aggregation (self- aggregation). The latter may also occur during the film-forming process.
  • Films suffering from the aggregation or conglomeration of particles, i.e., self- aggregation, are inherently non-uniform.
  • agglomerates randomly distributes the film components and any active pharmaceutical ingredient present as well.
  • a small change in the dimensions of the film would lead to a large difference in the amount of API in the film.
  • portions of the film may be substantially devoid of any API.
  • Sheets of film are usually cut into unit doses; certain doses may, therefore, be devoid of or contain an insufficient amount of API for the recommended treatment. Failure to achieve a high degree of accuracy with respect to the amount of API in the cut film can be harmful to the patient.
  • the above mentioned problems are solved by the orodispersible films of the invention.
  • the orodispersible films of the invention comprise a low soluble API and a surfactant having specific solubility characteristics.
  • the orodispersible films of the invention are uniform films free from aggregates, in particular API aggregates.
  • the present invention relates to an orodispersible film comprising:
  • an active pharmaceutical ingredient having a solubility of less than 10 mg/ml in water at RTP;
  • the present invention provides a film forming suspension comprising:
  • an active pharmaceutical ingredient having a solubility of less than 10 mg/ml in water at RTP;
  • solubility of the surfactant in water at RTP is at least 15 times greater than the solubility of the active pharmaceutical ingredient in water at RTP.
  • the present invention is directed to a method for preparing an orodispersible film comprising:
  • step 1 preparing a film forming suspension according to the invention; and 2) drying the suspension of step 1 ) to form the orodispersible film.
  • the present invention is directed to a method for preparing the film forming suspension of the invention.
  • the method comprises mixing the API having a solubility of less than 10 mg/ml in water at RTP with a surfactant and water or a mixture of water and at least a solvent selected from a (Ci-C 5 )-alcohol, acetone and mixtures thereof, wherein the surfactant has a solubility greater than 30 mg/ml in water at RTP, greater than 5 mg/ml in ethanol at RTP; and a solubility in water at RTP at least 15 times greater than the solubility of the active pharmaceutical ingredient in water at RTP.
  • the present invention relates to an orodispersible film obtainable according to a method of the invention.
  • the present invention is directed to an orodispersible film according to the present invention, for use as a medicament.
  • the present invention is directed to a packaging comprising the orodispersible film according to the present invention.
  • the present invention relates to an orodispersible film comprising a low soluble API, which is, nevertheless, uniform and free from aggregates.
  • Uniform/uniformity in the present context means that the API is homogenously distributed in the film. Uniformity is determined in accordance with Ph. Eur. 7.4 chapter 2.9.40 (content uniformity).
  • the orodispersible film of the invention has the desired dissolution time and excellent mechanical properties. Indeed, during its production the film is required to adhere to the support liner, but at the same time needs to be easily removable from the support liner (pull-off ability) without being damaged. Generally, it is difficult to achieve this balance as it mainly depends on the composition of the film and its viscosity. Advantageously, it has been found that the orodispersible film of the invention meets this balance.
  • the orodispersible film of the invention is prepared by film forming suspensions.
  • the present inventors have surprisingly found that by selecting a specific class of surfactants to be added to the suspension, the problem of the sedimentation of the suspension is solved, the suspension is stable and the API is homogeneously distributed in the suspension. Additionally, the problem of the aggregation of the API particles during the film-forming process is avoided.
  • the selected surfactant preferably has a good solubility not only in the solvent system of the suspension, but also in the solvent system formed during the drying step. For example, if a solvent system such as a water/ethanol system is used, the composition of the solvent system may change during the drying step, because the more volatile solvent (ethanol) evaporates first.
  • the evaporation causes the solvent system to become enriched in the solvent having the highest boiling point (i.e., water). Additionally, since the solvent(s) evaporate, the viscosity of the suspension during the drying step changes: the suspension tends to become more viscous.
  • a non-aggregated orodispersible film and a stable suspension are provided by the present invention. Additionally, the orodispersible film has the desired dissolution properties and excellent pull-off properties.

  • the solubility of the surfactant in water at RTP is at least 15 times greater than the solubility of the API in water at RTP.
  • the surfactants of the invention decrease the interfacial tension between API particles and water or the solvent system.

  • Tween 80 has a solubility in ethanol greater than 5 mg/ml and hence meets the requirements of a surfactant according to the present invention.
  • the solubility values are in water at RTP.
  • (homogenous) film forming suspension can be prepared. Uniformity is maintained during the film-forming process despite the increased viscosity of the suspension and the change in solvent composition.
  • Surfactants having the required solubility are preferably selected from anionic or non-ionic surfactants.
  • Anionic and non-ionic surfactants have a high water solubility and good wettability property that allow the API to be uniformly suspended in the film forming suspension and through all the variations of solvent compositions occurring during the film-forming process.
  • Non-ionic surfactants offer the additional advantages of no change in pH and reduced or no foam formation. Foam formation is generally caused by the incorporation of air bubbles during the initial stirring of the film forming suspension.
  • the surfactant is selected from:
  • alkoxylated fatty alcohols of formula RO(Ci-C 4 alkyl-0) n H wherein R is a (C 6 -Ci 8 )alkyl and n is 10 to 50, preferably R is (Ci 2 -Ci 8 )alkyl, C C 4 alkyl-0 is ethoxy (EO) and n is 20,
  • polyoxyethylene glycols and polyoxyethylene glycolethers (macrogols); block polymer surfactants; and
  • alkyl sulfates alkyl sulfates

Polyoxyalkylene block copolymers of the invention are polaxamers (synthetic polyoxyethylene-polyoxypropylene block copolymers) which are commercially known as Pluronics®. Pluronic F68 is the preferred Pluronics of the invention.

  • Surfactants of the invention have a hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) greater than 10. It is known that the hydrophilic-lipophilic balance of a surfactant is a measure of the degree to which it is hydrophilic or lipophilic and hence it is a measure of the solubility of the surfactant in oil/water.

  • the amount of surfactant present in the film of the invention is preferably from 0.01 % wt. to 0.5% wt., more preferably from 0.1 % wt. to 0.2% wt.
  • the weight value refers to the dry weight of the orodispersible film.
  • concentration of the surfactant varies and depends on the solid content intended for the suspension. However, it is not suggested using a surfactant at a concentration less than 0.01 % wt. as it can result in an incomplete wetting, loss in stability of the suspension and formation of aggregates in the film. On the other hand, concentrations above 0.5% wt. may increasingly solubilize or dissolve the API particles or lead to a change in the API particle size distribution, once again, causing instability and aggregation.
