Description

AN IMMEDIATE-RELEASE ORAL PHARMACEUTICAL FORM OF AMLODIPINE WITH INCREASED API CONTENT
Description
[001] The invention provides the composition of an immediate-release oral pharmaceutical form which comprises by weight of 25.1% to 99.5% Amlodipine Besilate, at least 0.5% of disintegrant and from 0% to 74.4% additional pharmaceutical excipient. With the composition invented, the prepared Amlodipine Besilate immediate-release oral pharmaceutical form has the benefit of a higher percentage Amlodipine Besilate content and a lowered percentage excipient content, while keeping with the requirements to the pharmaceutical quality.
Technical Field
[002] The invention belongs to the field of pharmaceutical preparations, a composition of matter, for the composition of an Amlodipine Besilate immediate-release oral pharmaceutical form.
Background
[003] Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is a serious health issue in many countries. According to the National Heart Blood and Lung Institute, it is thought that about 1 in 3 adults in the United States alone have hypertension. Left unchecked, hypertension is considered a substantial risk factor for cardiovascular and other diseases including coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, stroke, and kidney failure. Hypertension is classified as primary (essential) hypertension or secondary hypertension. Primary hypertension has no known cause and may be related to several environmental, lifestyle and genetic factors such as stress, obesity, smoking, inactivity, and sodium intake. Secondary hypertension can be caused by drug or surgical interventions or by abnormalities in the renal, cardiovascular, or endocrine system.
[004] Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker. It affects the movement of calcium into the cells of the heart and blood vessels. As a result, Amlodipine relaxes blood vessels and increases the supply of blood and oxygen to the heart while reducing its workload.
[005] Amlodipine is currently administered in the form of oral tablets, (e.g., Norvasc) or in the form of a refrigerated liquid formulation. A typical tablet formulation of Amlodipine immediate-release oral pharmaceutical form contains around 2 to 25% Amlodipine Besilate. The standard dosages being from 2.5mg to lOmg Amlodipine, and the typical dosage form being tablet. Amlodipine is one of the most often prescribed medicines in the world. Amlodipine tablets are usually and out of necessity packaged in PVC/ALU or ALU/ALU blisters, to ensure the stability of the product.
[006] The environmental burden of pharmaceutical packaging is immense. This is because the aluminium and plastics used to form the blister packaging are difficult and even impossible to recycle effectively as the materials are sealed together. Separating the materials again requires high amounts of energy and even then, the aluminium received from this is not of the same high quality as new aluminium. The larger the immediate-release oral pharmaceutical dosage form is, the larger the primary packaging must be and therefore also the more waste material is created. [007] Additionally, there is the environmental burden caused through the extensive transportation steps required of the finished product, such as the transportation from the manufacturer to the wholesaler and then to the pharmacy. Each box of finished product in the pharmaceutical industry needs to be transported several steps until it reaches the customer, often even global transportation routes are involved. This is especially the case for generic medicines, and further relevant for products which are sold in the millions, like with Amlodipine. The volume of the finished product determines how efficiently transportation and storage can be conducted, as a product with a high volume will require more space and more shipments as the same product at a smaller volume.
[008] Furthermore, when it is avoidable to expose the patient to excipients, it should be done. An immediate-release oral pharmaceutical form is administered with the goal of subjecting the human body to the drug and not the excipients. It is a waste of resources of the pharma industry to use excipients in products where they can be avoided, especially when used in high quantities. Also, the global demand of excipients is ever increasing, and the supply capabilities of the chemical industry is falling behind the demand which makes this waste of recourses even more problematic.
[009] Patented combinations of Amlodipine tablets, such as EP2359815A1 reach an Amlodipine content of 20.0% by weight, W02004075825A2 reaches 2.5% by weight and EP1932528 manages to reach 2.0% to 10.0% by weight. The highest Amlodipine content of 25.0% has been found possible in the patent CN104739799B. In a 2004 Paper from Abdoh et al. (A. Abdoh et al., Amlodipine Besylate- Excipients Interaction in Solid Dosage Form; Pharmaceutical Development and Technology, 2004, Vol. 9, No. 1. pp. 15-24), the compatibility of amlodipine besylate in its solid formulations with various drug excipients was tested. Binary (1: 1. w/w) mixtures or multicomponent mixtures (1: 1: 1, w/w) of amlodipine besilate and excipients were incubated under "stress stability” conditions (e.g. elevated temperature and/or relative humidity). However, the studies were focused on studying the stability of powders of amlodipine besylate and excipients under such conditions. Immediate-release oral pharmaceutical compositions were not prepared and the suitability of such mixtures for oral pharmaceutical compositions was therefore not apparent from this study. It is not evident from previous patents or studies that the Amlodipine content could be brought to any higher levels.
[010] We have found a way to create an immediate-release oral pharmaceutical form of Amlodipine with an increased percentage amlodipine content that can help immensely with the listed problems. Currently, on the market Amlodipine 5mg Tablets weigh roughly 120mg, and Amlodipine lOmg Tablets weigh roughly 190mg. The excipient content is 113mg per tablet and 176mg per tablet respectively. Through this invention the excipient content can be brough down to 0,035mg per 5mg tablet and down to 0,070mg per lOmg tablet, making up to 99.96% of the excipient in the current tablets obsolete.
[OH] As the amount of excipient needed is reduced to a minimum, the immediate-release oral pharmaceutical form shrinks, which in turn shrinks the size of the blister and shrinks the size of the entire finished product. Now a previously impossibly small sized blister can be used, and this enables the finished product to have a fraction of the current volume. This in turn allows for much more efficient transportation, lowering the carbon footprint of the product, and only a fraction of the packaging waste is created.
[012] It also reduces the amount of excipient administered to the patient down to the indispensable and drastically alleviates the pressure on the pharmaceutical industry to seek out and process an unnecessarily high quantity of excipient. [013] As Amlodipine is one of the most prescribed medicines in the world, it is synthesized in many production plants and the finished product is manufactured globally. The facilities and equipment needed to implement production of the given combination is readily available. The following examples of composition and preparation can realistically be realized at any production site intended for tabletting.
Brief Description of the Figures
[014] Figure 1 shows a graph representing exemplary results of the dissolution study in the below examples.
Examples
Example 1 - Example preparation of Amlodipine Tablets
[015] Step 1. All excipients of either Table 1 to 6 (the amounts being scaled according to the desired batch size), are passed through an appropriate screen. For the avoidance of doubt, a screen in this context refers to a sieve. Preferably sieves with a pore size of 250pm - 710pm.
Step 2. All excipients other than any optional lubricant, are first blended for 5 minutes at lOrpm in an appropriate blender.
For the avoidance of doubt, in view of the below tables it is apparent that Amlodipine Besilate is added; it can be added in Step 1 or 2.
Step 3. Any optional lubricant is then added to the blend, and again blended for 3 minutes at lOrpm.
Step 4. The final blend is compressed into tablets.
Step 5. A film coating can be added to the tablets.
