DESCRIPTION
PHARMACEUTICAL FORMULATIONS OF VILDAGLIPTIN Field of Invention
The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical formulation comprising therapeutically effective amount of vildagliptin or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and a diluent. Particularly, the ratio of vildagliptin to diluent is in the range of 0.04 to 0.24 (w/w).
Background of Invention
Vildagliptin is used for type 2 or non-insulin dependent diabetes. It increases the amount of insulin produced by the body. It also decreases the amount of glucagon which is produced by the body. Because of these effects, vildagliptin can help to control blood sugar levels in people with diabetes. Vildagliptin is used in combination with other medicines which help to control blood sugar levels.
DPP-IV inhibitors work by blocking the action of DPP-IV, an enzyme which destroys the hormone incretin. There are two types of incretin hormones found in the body, called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1 ) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP). These hormones are naturally produced by the body in response to food intake. Their function is to help the body produce more insulin only when it is needed and reduce the amount of glucose being produced by the liver when it is not needed. Vildagliptin works by binding to DPP-IV and preventing it from breaking down the GLP-1 and GIP. This increases the levels of these hormones in the body and so increases their effect on controlling blood sugar.

Formula I Its chemical name is (S)-{[(3-hydroxyadamantan-1 -yl)amino]acetyl}pyrrolidine-2-carbonitril and its chemical structure is shown in the Formula I.
Vildagliptin is marketed under the trademark Galvus® in 50 mg dosage forms by NOVARTIS. It is used against diabetes mellitus, but particularly in treating type 2 diabetes. Galvus® includes lactose anhydrose, microcrystalline cellulose, sodium starch glycolate and magnesium stearate.
In currently commercially available dose of vildagliptin formulation, microcrystalline cellulose is used as a diluent. In contrast, in this present invention, dibasic calcium phosphate was used as a diluent to achieve improved compression and flowability in the formulation.
There are various patents and applications available in the patent literature in relation to vildagliptin formulations. In the patent application EP1841413A2 and EP2165703A3, direct compression is used to develop tablet formulation of DPP-IV inhibitor compounds, especially vildagliptin or an acid addition salt thereof.
It is known that DPP-IV inhibitors with primary or secondary amino group show incompatibilities, degradation problems or extraction problems with some excipients especially excipients that have acidic properties. Vildagliptin has also a secondary amino group on its chemical structure. In solid dosage forms, it may react with many excipients or impurities of excipients, although vildagliptin itself is very stable.
In this invention, diluent is used in a specific ratio in order to achieve desired release profile with desired tablet weight and desired flow during the process. Dibasic calcium phosphate has been chosen as a diluent to achieve high stability in the solid dosage form of vildagliptin.
Description of the invention The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical formulation comprising;
a) vildagliptin or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and
b) a diluent,
wherein the ratio of vildagliptin to diluent is in the range of in the range of 0.04 to 0.24 (w/w). In one embodiment, in the formulation of this present invention, the ratio of vildagliptin to diluent is in the range of in the range of 0.04 to 0.24 (w/w), preferably 0.04 to 0.23 (w/w) and more preferably it is 0.1 to 0.21 (w/w). In prior art, the patent application EP1841413A2 and EP2165703A3 disclose a direct compression of vildagliptin tablet formulation in a limited ratio of vildagliptin to diluent. It is often difficult to achieve desired dissolution profile in all the strengths. To overcome such problem it is always necessary to optimize size and surface area of a tablet. In comparison to prior art, in this present invention, it has been found that with a lower ratio of vildagliptin to diluent has given desired dissolution profile. With this ratio, more uniform dissolution profile has also been achieved due to an increase in weight and surface area of the tablet. In this embodiment, diluent is selected from the group comprising dibasic calcium phosphate, inorganic salts, sorbitol, tribasic calcium phosphate, dextrose, trehalose, microcrystalline cellulose, lactose, starch, sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, calcium carbonate, dextrose, sucrose, maltodextrine, isomalt, xylitol, heavy magnesium carbonate or mixtures thereof, preferably it is dibasic calcium phosphate.
The pharmaceutical formulation of this present invention was tested for its dissolution profile measured in 900ml_ of 0.1 N HCI at 50 rpm named as USP II (Paddle).
In direct compression for the tablet development process, diluent choice is important to provide adequate flow of powder mixture. It should be both compatible with active agent and other excipients and should not cause any stability problem. In general, DPP-IV inhibitors are not very stable compounds. Especially, in solid dosage forms, amine group containing DPP- IV inhibitors such as vildagliptin may react with many excipients or impurities of excipients. In prior art, microcrystalline cellulose has been used as a diluent for vildagliptin tablet formulation. However, microcrystalline cellulose contains high humidity and it is known that vildagliptin is very sensitive to humidity. In this invention, to ensure flowability of formulation dibasic calcium phosphate has been used and it has been surprisingly found that it provides high stability. The stability assay has been performed by HPLC with isocratic mobile phase at a wavelength of UV 210 nm at 35 ± 10 QC of column temperature.
In one embodiment, the ratio of vildagliptin to dibasic calcium phosphate is in the range of 0.04 to 0.24 (w/w), preferably 0.04 to 0.23 (w/w) and more preferably it is 0.1 to 0.21 (w/w). Dibasic calcium phosphate has given good flow and compaction properties to the formulation due to its bulk density. It has been surprisingly found that the specific ratio of vildagliptin to dibasic calcium phosphate surprisingly provides low friability. In this embodiment, friability test has been performed with a drum with an internal diameter between 283-291 mm and a depth between 36-40 mm by rotating the drum 100 times, with 25 ± 1 r/min rotation speed.
Furthermore, by using this specific ratio of vildagliptin to dibasic calcium phosphate, tablet compaction speed has been increased without any problem such as content uniformity. It has been observed that the compaction speed is between 100.000 tb/h. to 40.000 tb/h.
In addition, in a tablet formulation the ratio of diluent to disintegrant is also crucial to achieve desired dissolution profile and optimum disintegration. In this invention, it has been found that the optimum ratio of dibasic calcium phosphate to croscarmellose sodium is in the range of 2 to 27 (w/w), preferably 5 to 20 (w/w) and more preferably it is 8 to 17 (w/w). It has been surprisingly found that when this ratio increases, excess amount of dibasic calcium phosphate causes an increase on disintegration, a decrease on dissolution properties of tablets and undesired stains on tablets. On the other side, a decrease in ratio of dibasic calcium phosphate to croscarmellose sodium causes destruction in the matrix and hence problems in dissolution. Therefore, in this invention an optimum ratio of dibasic calcium phosphate to croscarmellose sodium has been provided in order to achieve desired matrix and dissolution without any physical problems on tablets. Suitable disintegrants may include, but not limited to croscarmellose sodium, carboxy methyl cellulose calcium, alginic acid and alginates, ion-exchange resins, magnesium aluminum silica, sodium dodecyl sulphate, sodium carboxy methyl cellulose, polyvinylpyrrolidone, povidone, crospovidone, docusate sodium, guar gam, low-substitue HPC, HPMC, polyacrylin potasium, poloxomer, sodium alginate, sodium glysin carbonate, sodium lauryl sulphate., sodium starch glycolate, soy polysaccharide, gellan gum, xanthan gum, calcium silicate and mixtures thereof.
Suitable binders may include but not limited to polyvinylpyrrolidone, sugars, glycose syrups, natural gums, guar gum, gelatins, pullulan, agar, alginate, sodium algynates, K-Karagen, glycyrrhizin, polymetacrylates, kollagen, agar, algynate, sodium alginate, hyaluronic acid, pectin, tragakanti gum, carboxymethyl cellulose, polyethylene glycol, polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl acetate and their copolymers, cellulose derivatives such as hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose, carboxy methyl cellulose, methyl cellulose, microcrystalline cellulose, polyvinylalcohol, carrageenan, carbomer, poloxamer, polyacrylamide, aluminum hydroxide, benthonite, laponite, setostearyl alcohol, polyoxyethylene-alkyl ethers, acacia mucilage, polydextrose, polyethylene oxide, xylitol, sucrose stearate, and mixtures thereof.
