COMPOSICIÓN DE NAPROXENO NANO-PARTICULADO EN ACEITE VEGETAL ÚTIL PARA EL TRATAMIENTO DE LA INFLAMACIÓN Y EL COMPOSITION OF NANO-PARTICULATED NAPROXEN IN VEGETABLE OIL USEFUL FOR THE TREATMENT OF INFLAMMATION AND
DOLOR PAIN
CAMPO DE LA INVENCIÓN FIELD OF THE INVENTION
El desarrollo pertenece al campo químico, farmacéutico y de medicina en general, particularmente a una composición tópica de naproxeno nano-particulado en un vehículo oleoso, útil como agente analgésico y antinflamatorio. The development belongs to the chemical, pharmaceutical and medicine fields in general, particularly to a topical composition of nano-particulate naproxen in an oily vehicle, useful as an analgesic and anti-inflammatory agent.
DESCRIPCIÓN DEL ESTADO DE LA TÉCNICA DESCRIPTION OF THE STATE OF THE ART
Los medicamentos antinflamatorios no esteroideos (AINE) constituyen una familia de compuestos principalmente antinflamatorios, analgésicos y antipiréticos, que permiten tratar síntomas como la inflamación, el dolor y la fiebre. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) constitute a family of mainly anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic compounds, which treat symptoms such as inflammation, pain and fever.
Debido a su gran potencial terapéutico, los AINE se consumen en gran medida entre la población mundial como medicamentos de venta libre y recetados, en donde el problema con esta creciente tendencia radica en la presencia de efectos secundarios, tales como los efectos gastrointestinales asociados a su modo de acción como inhibidores de la actividad de la enzima ciclooxigenasa (COX) que media la biosíntesis de prostaglandinas, tromboxano y prostaciclinas, en tanto ciertas clases de prostaglandinas tienen la propiedad de proteger al epitelio gastrointestinal de una serie de afecciones ulcerogénicas, por lo que al ser bloqueadas, la naturaleza citoprotectora de estos mediadores lipidíeos se ve igualmente afectada. Due to their great therapeutic potential, NSAIDs are widely consumed among the world's population as over-the-counter and prescription drugs, where the problem with this growing trend lies in the presence of side effects, such as gastrointestinal effects associated with their use. mode of action as inhibitors of the activity of the enzyme cyclooxygenase (COX) that mediates the biosynthesis of prostaglandins, thromboxane and prostacyclins, while certain classes of prostaglandins have the property of protecting the gastrointestinal epithelium from a series of ulcerogenic conditions, therefore when blocked, the cytoprotective nature of these lipid mediators is also affected.
Por lo tanto, en aras de evitar los efectos gastrointestinales asociados a la administración oral de los AINE, se han desarrollado preparaciones farmacéuticas tópicas que puedan ejercer su acción localizada y así mismo evitar otros efectos secundarios no deseados que pueden surgir tras la administración sistémica del fármaco. Particularmente, la patente US9351984 divulga una composición farmacéutica que comprende AINEs que se adicionan directamente a un aceite que contiene fosfolípidos, tal como lecitina o un aceite bio-compatible al que se le ha agregado un fosfolípido, para preparar una composición de baja toxicidad gastrointestinal y actividad terapéutica mejorada para tratar o prevenir la inflamación, el dolor, la fiebre, la agregación plaquetaria, la ulceración de tejidos y/u otros desórdenes tisulares. La composición está en forma de una solución no acuosa, pasta, suspensión, dispersión, suspensión coloidal o en forma de una emulsión acuosa o microemulsión para administración intema, oral, directa o tópica. Para administración tópica, las composiciones pueden estar en forma de ungüento, pasta, aceite, emulsión, microemulsión o mezclas o combinaciones de las mismas. Más aun, las composiciones pueden estar mezcladas con otros ingredientes comúnmente usados en ungüentos y en la industria cosmética. Therefore, in order to avoid the gastrointestinal effects associated with the oral administration of NSAIDs, topical pharmaceutical preparations have been developed that can exert their localized action and also avoid other unwanted side effects that may arise after systemic administration of the drug. . In particular, patent US9351984 discloses a pharmaceutical composition comprising NSAIDs that are added directly to an oil containing phospholipids, such as lecithin or a bio-compatible oil to which a phospholipid has been added, to prepare a composition with low gastrointestinal toxicity and enhanced therapeutic activity to treat or prevent inflammation, pain, fever, platelet aggregation, tissue ulceration, and/or other tissue disorders. The composition is in the form of a non-aqueous solution, paste, suspension, dispersion, colloidal suspension or in the form of an aqueous emulsion or microemulsion for internal, oral, direct or topical administration. For topical administration, the compositions may be in the form of an ointment, paste, oil, emulsion, microemulsion, or mixtures or combinations thereof. Furthermore, the compositions can be mixed with other ingredients commonly used in ointments and in the cosmetic industry.
Por otro lado, la patente US20110033545 divulga preparaciones farmacéuticas tópicas que comprenden tanto una solución como una suspensión de nanopartículas y métodos para el tratamiento del dolor agudo y crónico que emplean dichas preparaciones. On the other hand, patent US20110033545 discloses topical pharmaceutical preparations that comprise both a solution and a suspension of nanoparticles and methods for the treatment of acute and chronic pain that use said preparations.
Las preparaciones divulgadas, comprenden una cantidad terapéuticamente efectiva de un fármaco AINE de tamaño nanométrico y un portador farmacéuticamente aceptable, apropiado para su administración tópica. En la segunda presentación, el fármaco antinflamatorio no esteroide se presenta en forma de nanopartículas de menos de 1000 nm, preferiblemente de 40 a 60 nm. Las preparaciones farmacéuticas tienen el propósito de ser administradas tópicamente por cualquier medio conocido; por ejemplo, cremas, geles, lociones, ungüentos y parches transdérmicos. La administración de las preparaciones farmacéuticas debe ser local, de manera que se minimicen, en lo posible, los efectos colaterales indeseados que pueden surgir con la administración sistémica. finalmente, autores como Gaber D. [Gaber D. (2019). Nano-lipid partióles of naproxen for topical application: In vitro / in vivo study. Journal of Innovations in Pharmaceutical and Biological Sciences (JIPBS), 6(1), 31-36] enseñan formulaciones en gel de naproxeno basadas en nanopartículas lipídicas (NpxNps) para el tratamiento de la osteoartritis. En este estudio se evalúa la caracterización de las NpxNps para aplicación tópica mediante sus características físicas, así como la liberación transdérmica in vivo y el efecto analgésico. El tamaño medio de las partículas está en el rango entre 203 ± 10 nm y 228 ± 30 nm, por lo que el autor menciona que las nanopartículas basadas en lípidos con un patrón de liberación controlada de fármacos pueden ser una tecnología útil para mejorar la liberación de naproxeno a través de un sistema de liberación transdérmico ya que tienen la ventaja de tener un tamaño nanométrico y una naturaleza lipofílica. Adicionalmente se consideran un vehículo seguro para fármacos dado que están compuestas de componentes biocompatibles y biodegradables. The disclosed preparations comprise a therapeutically effective amount of a nano-sized NSAID drug and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier suitable for topical administration. In the second presentation, the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug is presented in the form of nanoparticles of less than 1000 nm, preferably 40 to 60 nm. Pharmaceutical preparations are intended to be administered topically by any known means; for example, creams, gels, lotions, ointments and transdermal patches. The administration of the pharmaceutical preparations must be local, so as to minimize, as much as possible, the undesired collateral effects that may arise with systemic administration. finally, authors such as Gaber D. [Gaber D. (2019). Nano-lipid particles of naproxen for topical application: In vitro / in vivo study. Journal of Innovations in Pharmaceutical and Biological Sciences (JIPBS), 6(1), 31-36] teach lipid nanoparticle-based (NpxNps)-based naproxen gel formulations for the treatment of osteoarthritis. This study evaluates the characterization of the NpxNps for application topical by its physical characteristics, as well as in vivo transdermal release and analgesic effect. The average size of the particles is in the range between 203 ± 10 nm and 228 ± 30 nm, so the author mentions that lipid-based nanoparticles with a pattern of controlled drug release can be a useful technology to improve drug release. of naproxen through a transdermal delivery system since they have the advantage of being nanometric in size and lipophilic in nature. Additionally, they are considered a safe vehicle for drugs since they are composed of biocompatible and biodegradable components.
Sin embargo, estas formulaciones presentan limitaciones como por ejemplo que las nanopartículas de lípidos carecen de la estabilidad suficiente para permanecer en la piel durante el tiempo necesario para que el ingrediente activo se absorba a través de la piel y alcance el sitio de acción; las combinaciones de ingredientes activos nano particulados no necesariamente conservan su conformación al ser mezclados por lo que requieren la adición de adyuvantes farmacéuticos para proveer estabilidad y eficiencia, además que se debe demostrar que estas mezclas no resultan en nuevos compuestos con propiedades fisicoquímicas diferentes a los componentes individuales. However, these formulations have limitations such as, for example, that the lipid nanoparticles lack sufficient stability to remain on the skin for the time necessary for the active ingredient to be absorbed through the skin and reach the site of action; combinations of nanoparticulate active ingredients do not necessarily retain their shape when mixed, so they require the addition of pharmaceutical adjuvants to provide stability and efficiency, and it must also be demonstrated that these mixtures do not result in new compounds with physicochemical properties different from those of the components. individual.
Por lo tanto, aún persiste la necesidad de desarrollar formulaciones tópicas estables de AINE que permitan la acción localizada en el sitio del dolor y/o la inflamación, reduciendo los efectos secundarios y los tiempos de acción asociados al consumo oral y la distribución sistémica. Therefore, there is still a need to develop stable topical formulations of NSAIDs that allow localized action at the site of pain and/or inflammation, reducing side effects and action times associated with oral consumption and systemic distribution.

Adicionalmente, los términos utilizados en forma singular también incluirán la forma plural.

Composición Composition
El presente desarrollo corresponde a una composición tópica de naproxeno nano- particulado como ingrediente activo, un vehículo oleoso que se selecciona de uno o más aceites ricos en terpenoides y excipientes farmacéuticamente aceptables. The present development corresponds to a topical composition of nanoparticulate naproxen as active ingredient, an oily vehicle that is selected from one or more oils rich in terpenoids and pharmaceutically acceptable excipients.
Se entiende por naproxeno nano-particulado a las nano partículas de naproxeno que tienen tamaños de partícula que no superan los 800 nm. En una modalidad particular las nano partículas de naproxeno son de tamaños entre los 200 y 500 nm y en otra modalidad particular entre los 200 y 300 nm. Nanoparticulate naproxen is understood as naproxen nanoparticles that have particle sizes that do not exceed 800 nm. In a particular embodiment, the naproxen nanoparticles have sizes between 200 and 500 nm and in another particular embodiment between 200 and 300 nm.
El tamaño de partícula del naproxeno incide directamente sobre la efectividad del naproxeno ya que una formulación homogénea nano particulada presenta una mejor penetración en la piel, un período extendido para la liberación del componente activo debido al tamaño reducido y al aumento en el área superficial de la nano partícula. Adicionalmente, al tener una mayor área superficial es posible usar menores cantidades lo que lo hace más seguro mientras se mantiene la efectividad. La composición de la presente invención comprende concentraciones de naproxeno menores a las que se usan en formulaciones orales, que se encuentran alrededor de 250 mg, mientras que se obtienen resultados equivalentes con una cantidad por lo menos 25 veces menor y sin los riesgos asociados con la distribución sistémica y el uso prolongado del compuesto, que se han descrito, tales como riesgos aumentados de ataque cardiaco o derrame cerebral. The particle size of naproxen directly affects the effectiveness of naproxen since a homogeneous nanoparticulate formulation presents better penetration into the skin, an extended period for the release of the active component due to the reduced size and the increase in the surface area of the nanoparticle. Additionally, by having a higher surface area it is possible to use smaller amounts which makes it safer while maintaining effectiveness. The composition of the present invention comprises lower concentrations of naproxen than those used in oral formulations, which are around 250 mg, while equivalent results are obtained with an amount at least 25 times lower and without the risks associated with systemic distribution and prolonged use of the compound, which have been described, such as increased risks of heart attack or stroke.
En una modalidad particular, la concentración de naproxeno nano-particulado es de hasta 20% en peso, de entre 0,5 y 15% en peso o de entre 7,5 y 10% en peso. In a particular embodiment, the concentration of nano-particulate naproxen is up to 20% by weight, between 0.5 and 15% by weight or between 7.5 and 10% by weight.
El vehículo oleoso para efectos de la presente invención se entiende como uno o más aceites de origen vegetal rico en terpenoides o isoprenoides, es decir con un contenido de al menos el 75% de mono terpenoides tales como eucaliptol. Particularmente un aceite extraído de plantas cuyas flores, hojas o frutos permiten la obtención de aceites esenciales ricos en estos compuestos. En una modalidad particular, sin constituir una limitante el aceite rico en terpenoides se selecciona entre aceite de moringa, de eucalipto, de té, de salvia, de árboles cítricos como limón, pino, lavanda, mentol, alcanfor, o mezclas de los mismos, más preferiblemente el aceite de origen vegetal rico en terpenoides es aceite de eucalipto, moringa, alcanfor o mezclas de los mismos. The oily vehicle for purposes of the present invention is understood as one or more oils of plant origin rich in terpenoids or isoprenoids, that is, with a content of at least 75% of mono terpenoids such as eucalyptol. Particularly an oil extracted from plants whose flowers, leaves or fruits allow the obtaining of essential oils rich in these compounds. In a particular embodiment, without being a limitation, the oil rich in terpenoids is selected from oils of moringa, eucalyptus, tea, sage, citrus trees such as lemon, pine, lavender, menthol, camphor, or mixtures thereof, more preferably the oil of plant origin rich in terpenoids is oil of eucalyptus, moringa, camphor or mixtures thereof.
Al incorporar el naproxeno nano-particulado en el vehículo oleoso se forman estructuras únicas tales como micelas o vesículas que permiten transportar el ingrediente activo a través de la piel.
