摘要:
A controlled release solid pharmaceutical formulation comprising: a core comprising a first composition comprising a physical mixture of a therapeutic agent and at least one sulfoalkyl ether cyclodextrin, wherein a major portion of the therapeutic agent is not complexed with the sulfoalkyl ether cyclodextrin; and a coating surrounding said core and consisting of a film forming agent; wherein, said therapeutic agent of the first composition is released from the core at a controlled rate in the absence of a pore forming agent in the coating.
摘要:
An injectable formulation of a sedative hypnotic drug, such as the anesthetic drug propofol, that is pharmaceutically stable and demonstrates a reduced incidence of pain upon injection. The formulation of the present invention employs a sulfoalkyl ether cyclodextrin solubilizing and complexing excipient, such as CAPTISOL(R) cyclodextrin (sulfobutyl ether beta-cyclodextrin) to form a true aqueous solution and not a suspension. This formulation minimizes the allergic response and microbial contamination issues typically associated with propofol parenteral formulations. The present formulation may also reduce pain on injection as compared to the known emulsion type propofol formulations. The liquid formulation can be sterile filtered unlike emulsion-type formulations of sedative hypnotics. The liquid formulation can be lyophilized or otherwise dried to yield a solid formulation.
摘要:
An inhalable dry powder formulation containing SAE-CD and an active agent is provided. The formulation is adapted for administration by DPI. The SAE-CD serves as a carrier rather than as an absorption enhancer. The average particle size of the SAE-CD is large enough to preclude (for the most part) pulmonary deposition thereof. Following release from the DPI device, the SAE-CD-containing particles dissociate from the active agent-containing particles in the buccal cavity or throat, after which the active agent-containing particles continue deeper into the respiratory tract. The physicochemical and morphological properties of the SAE-CD are easily modified to permit optimization of active agent and carrier interactions. Drugs having a positive, neutral or negative electrostatic charge can be delivered by DPI when SAE-CD is used as a carrier.
摘要:
An inhalable unit dose liquid formulation containing SAE-CD and corticosteroid is provided. The formulation is adapted for administration to a subject by nebulization with any known nebulizer. The formulation can be included in a kit. The formulation is administered as an aqueóus solution or concentrated composition. The formulation is employed in an improved nebulization system for administering corticosteroid by inhalation. SAE-CD present in the formulation significantly enhances the chemical stability of corticosteroid, such as budesonide. A method of administering the formulation by inhalation is provided. The formulation can also be administered by conventional nasal delivery apparatus. The formulation is prepared by mixing SAE-CD, in solid or liquid (dissolved) form, with an inhalable suspension-based unit dose formulation.

An inhalable formulation containing SEA-Ϝ-CD and corticosteroid is provided. The formulation is adapted for administration to a subject by nebulization with any known nebulizer. The formulation can be included in a kit. The formulation is administered as an aqueous solution, however, it can be stored as a dry powder, ready-to-use solution, or concentrated composition. The formulation is employed in an improved nebulization system for administering corticosteroid by inhalation. SAE-Ϝ-CD present in the formulation significantly enhances the chemical stability of budesonide. A method of administering the formulation by inhalation is provided. The formulation can also be administered by conventional nasal delivery apparatus. The formulation can include one or more additional therapeutic agents for use in combination with the corticosteroid. SAE-Ϝ-CD is especially useful for solubilizing esterified corticosteroids.

摘要:
A capsule containing an aqueous fill composition that comprises water, a derivatized cyclodextrin, such as sulfoalkyl ether cyclodextrin (SAE-CD) or hydroxypropyl cyclodextrin (HPCD), optionally one or more active agents and optionally one or more excipients is stabilized from degradation, erosion, swelling or dissolution of its shell during storage. The derivatized cyclodextrin is present in an amount sufficient to reduce, eliminate or inhibit degradation, erosion, swelling and/or dissolution of the shell by water present in the fill composition. Alternatively, the derivatized cyclodextrin and another shell-stabilizing material together stabilize the shell from degradation, erosion, swelling and/or dissolution by water present in the fill composition. The derivatized cyclodextrin can reduce the water activity of the fill composition.
