Definitions
- the present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions containing a poorly water soluble therapeutic agent.
- the present invention relates to the administration, particularly oral administration to a human, of self-emulsifying microemulsion and emulsion preconcentrate formulations or microemulsions and emulsions which contain a poorly water soluble therapeutic agent, an oil component and a surfactant system.
- These preconcentrates, microemulsions and emulsions have the advantage of being substantially free of or containing only minor amounts of a hydrophilic solvent system.
- Certain oil mixtures of lipophilic drugs such as a cyclosporin, when combined with vegetable oils or other lipidic substances, surface active agents, solvents and other excipients are known to spontaneously produce dispersions of very low mean particle size, such as ⁇ 200 nm, when mixed with an agueous medium.
- These dispersions are known as microemulsions and the oily mixtures that produce the microemulsions are popularly referred to as microemulsion preconcentrates.
- the microemulsion preconcentrates are thought to produce similar dispersions of very low particle size with gastric and other physiological fluids.
- microemulsion preconcentrate formulations are known, including soft gel formulations, for enhancing the solubilization and oral bioavailability of a poorly water soluble drug compound such as cyclosporin A.
- these formulations include an active agent, an oil component, a surfactant to emulsify the formulation and a hydrophilic solvent system containing solvents/co-surfactants to solubilize the active agent.
- Typical solvents/co-surfactants include ethanol, polyethylene glycols, propylene carbonate, dimethylisosorbide, Transcutol and/or Glycofurol.
- Disadvantages of these formulations include stability or precipitation problems caused by migration of volatile hydrophilic solvents or cosolvents (e.g., ethanol can permeate a gelatin shell at normal storage temperatures), stability or precipitation problems caused by hygroscopic solvents or co-surfactants (e.g., propylene glycols, Transcutol, Glycofurol), and toxicity problems caused by addition of certain solvents or co-surfactants (e.g., dimethylisosorbide).
- volatile hydrophilic solvents or cosolvents e.g., ethanol can permeate a gelatin shell at normal storage temperatures
- hygroscopic solvents or co-surfactants e.g., propylene glycols, Transcutol, Glycofurol
- toxicity problems caused by addition of certain solvents or co-surfactants (e.g., dimethylisosorbide).
- US 5,603,951 describes a microemulsion concentrate containing cyclosporin as an active ingredient, dimethylisosorbide as a required co-surfactant, a surfactant, and an oil which can be refined fish oil, these components being present in the ratio of 1 :1-5:2-10:1-5.
- the inventors of the '951 patent added dimethylisosorbide, which is a solvent available under the Tradename ARLASOVE®, to the formulation to address the disadvantages listed above for prior solvents/co-surfactants such as ethanol, Transcutol, or Glycofurol.
- the '951 preconcentrates are formed by dissolving the cyclosporin in the dimethylisosorbide while heating at approximately 60°C followed by addition of the oil component and the surfactant.
- WO 97/33610 discloses a microemulsion preconcentrate system containing as co- surfactants propylene carbonate or a mixture of propylene carbonate with polyoxyethylene-polyoxypropylene block copolymers.
- US 5,589,455 discloses a microemulsion preconcentrate system containing the solvent polyethylene glycol.
- WO 93/20833 discloses a microemulsion preconcentrate system containing a hydrophilic phase, e.g., Transcutol, Glycofurol, 1 ,2- propylene glycol or ethanol.
- EP 760237 discloses a microemulsion preconcentrate that includes a phospholipid, preferably lecithin. Phospholipids are disadvantageous in that they are known to have stability issues.
- the oil component of a conventional microemulsion consists of fatty acid mono-, di- or thglycerides from a vegetable oil; medium chain thglycerides and/or mono- or di-glycerides; mixtures of glycerides and polyglycolized glycerides; tocol, tocopherols, and/or tocotrienols; or hydrophobic alcohols.
- WO 97/22358 discloses a microemulsions system containing tocol, tocopherols, tocotrienols and derivatives along with propylene carbonate or polyethylene glycols.
- EP 570715 discloses a microemulsion preconcentrate system containing as a lipophilic phase a mixture of polyglycolized glycerides having a HLB of less than 16.
- WO 94/25068 discloses a microemulsion preconcentrate system in which hydrophobic alcohols are used in place of the combination of hydrophilic and hydrophobic solvents; while these systems eliminate the need for a hydrophilic solvent system, the hydrophobic alcohols have the disadvantage of tasting bad.
- Cyclosporins are an example of a class of drugs that is poorly water soluble.
- Cyclosporin A is a lipophilic cyclic undecapeptide that can be isolated from the fungus Tolypoclodium inflatum Gams and which produces calcium dependent, specific and reversible inhibition of transcription of interleukin-2 and several other cytokines, most notably in T helper lymphocytes. Because of its immunosuppressive properties, it is widely used as first line therapy in the prophylaxis and treatment of transplant rejection (e.g., allo- or xeno-transplant rejection such as in patients receiving heart, lung, combined heart-lung, liver, kidney, pancreatic, skin or comeal transplants) and various autoimmune and inflammatory diseases.
- transplant rejection e.g., allo- or xeno-transplant rejection such as in patients receiving heart, lung, combined heart-lung, liver, kidney, pancreatic, skin or comeal transplants

- CyA is used in the treatment of multi-drug resistance syndrome, for example in patients undergoing chemotherapy or following organ transplantations. In patients with severe disease refractory to standard treatment; CyA is an effective therapy in acute ocular Behcet's syndrome; endogenous uveitis; psoriasis; atopic dermatitis; arthritis, particularly rheumatoid arthritis; active Crohn's disease and nephrotic syndrome.

- CyA has also been used to treat patients with moderate or severe aplastic anemia who are ineligible for bone marrow transplantation and those with primary biliary cirrhosis. CyA may be effective in patients with intractable pyoderma gangrenosum, polymyositis/dermatomyositis or severe, corticosteroid-dependent asthma. CyA is known to have a very specific effect on T-cell proliferation although the precise mechanism remains unclear. A number of non-immunosuppressive analogues of cyclosporin A have been shown to have resistance modifier activity and some are more potent than the parent compound.
- Nephrotoxicity, hepatotoxicity, hypertension, headache, hypert chosis, gingival hyperplasia, neurological and gastrointestinal effects, thrombocytopenia and microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, hyperkalemia and hyperuricemia and development of skin and lymphoproliferative malignancies are the most common adverse events in cyclosporin recipients.
- Cyclosporins are highly lipophilic, poorly water soluble and, therefore, have been supplied as an olive oil or peanut oil solution for clinical use.
- the bioavailability of cyclosporin from such oily solutions is very low and gives rise to great intersubject variation with reported systemic availability ranging from 4 to 25% (Takada, K. et al, J. Pharmacobio-Dyn., 11:80-7 (1988)).
- the bioavailability of cyclosporin has been reported to be dependent on food, bile and other interacting factors (din. Pharmacokinetics, 24:472-95 (1993)).
- CyA SAND IMMUNE® for oral administration
- SAND IMMUNE® is a solution of cyclosporin A in vegetable oil derivatives containing some other inactive excipients.
- Very high inter- and intra-patient and food dependent variability in the bioavailability of CyA has been observed from this formulation.
- the commercial microemulsion preconcentrate formulation, NEORAL® has been claimed to provide high bioavailability for CyA with low inter-and intra-patient variability.
- risks of adverse drug reactions have been indicated on switching to Neoral® (see, e.g., Drug Saf, 16:366-73 (1996); Lancet, 348:205 (1996)).
- CyA and fish oils have been administered concurrently to organ transplant patients in various clinical trials. For instance, Andreassen et al. (JAAC, 29(6): 1324-31 (1997) reported effective hypertension prophylaxis in heart transplant patients who were given cyclosporin A and 4g of fish oil. Cyclosporin A-treated and fish oil fed renal transplant recipients had improved renal function following a rejection episode (Transplantation,, 54:257 (1992)). US 5,118,493 describes the administration of CyA together with an omega-3 fatty acid oil to mediate the nephrotoxic effects of the cyclosporin.
- Omega-3 fatty acid oils possess properties that can be used for numerous therapeutic advantages, including treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, inflammatory bowel diseases such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis; immunosuppressive treatment; hypertension prophylaxis in normal humans and in heart transplant patients; coronary heart disease; hyperlipidemia; hypertriglyceridemia; improvement of renal function and nephrotoxicity reduction.

- immunosuppressive treatment hypertension prophylaxis in normal humans and in heart transplant patients
- coronary heart disease hyperlipidemia
- hypertriglyceridemia improvement of renal function and nephrotoxicity reduction.
- omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids compete with omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids as a substrate in the arachidonic acid cascade and can therefore alter the synthesis of prostaglandin and leukotrienes, both of which are powerful mediators of inflammation and immune response.

- a highly lipophilic oil component and a surfactant system containing surfactants having an HLB from about 10 to 20, preferably 13-19, more preferably 15-18 (in the absence of oils or surfactants having an HLB from about 5 to 10) provides stable preconcentrate systems.
- These particular components allow formulation of preconcentrates that are substantially free of a hydrophilic solvent system or contain only minor amounts of a hydrophilic solvent system. It is believed that the solubilizing properties of the low HLB oil component in combination with surfactants having and HLB from about 10 to 20 allow for formulation of preconcentrates that are substantially free of hydrophilic solvent system components such as surfactant or co-surfactants having an HLB > 20 or solvents.
- Enhanced bioavailability for the therapeutic agent from the preconcentrates of the present invention may be due to the absence of these hydrophilic solvent system components that could partition into the aqueous phase upon formation of the microemulsion or emulsion, causing precipitation of the therapeutic agent.
- a solution containing the poorly water soluble therapeutic agent and the oil component were prepared in appropriate proportions by adding the therapeutic agent in small increments and stirring.
- the surfactant system was prepared by mixing separately the chosen surfactants in their determined ratios.
- the oil component/therapeutic agent solution was then combined with the surfactant system solution to form the preconcentrate, such as stirring for approximately 5 minutes with or without heating to 30-40°C until homogeneous.
- formulations according to the present invention were prepared by simply combining the given amounts of the therapeutic agent, the given amounts of the oil component and the given amounts of the surfactant system with stirring until a homogeneous solution was formed.
- the therapeutic agent can be added to a mixture of the oil component and the surfactant system and stirred until a homogeneous solution was formed or the surfactant mixture can be prepared, the oil components added to it followed by addition of the drug.
- the preconcentrate was diluted, such as a 1 :1 , 1 :10, 1 :20, 1 :50 and 1 :100 v/v dilution, with an aqueous solution such as water or simulated gastric fluid to simulate conditions in the stomach.
- C1 denotes a transparent solution - particle sizing has shown that C1 systems have an average microemulsion droplet sized under 30nm;
- C2 denotes a translucent solution - droplet size is approximately 50-70nm;
- C3 denotes a slightly opaque solution - droplet size is in the region of 100nm; and
