摘要:
Rapidly dispersing solid dry therapeutic dosage form comprised of a water insoluble compound existing as a nanometer or micrometer particulate solid which is surface stabilized by the presence of at least one phospholipid, the particulate solid being dispersed throughout a bulking matrix. When the dosage form is introduced into an aqueous environment the bulking matrix is substantially completely dissolves within less than 2 minutes thereby releasing the water insoluble particulate solid in an unaggregated and/or unagglomerated state. The matrix is composed of a water insoluble substance or therapeutically useful water insoluble or poorly water soluble compound, a phospholipid and optionally also at least one non-ionic, anionic, cationic, or amphipathic surfactant, together with a matrix or bulking agent and if needed a release agent. The volume weighted mean particle size of the water insoluble particle is 5 micrometers or less.
摘要:
This invention discloses an orally administered pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of elevated levels of cholesterol and related conditions comprising a statin and fenofibrate in the form of microparticles of solid fenofibrate that are stabilized by phospholipid as a surface active substance, wherein a therapeutically effective amount of the composition provides the statin and a quantity of fenofibrate to a fasted human patient that is greater than 80% of the quantity of fenofibrate provided by the same amount of the composition when administered to the same patient who has been fed a high fat meal.
摘要:
The invention provides a composition comprising microparticles of a water-insoluble or poorly soluble compound, at least one phospholipid, and at least one surfactant, produced by applying an energy to a mixture comprising particles of the compound, the at least one phospholipid, and the at least one surfactant so as to obtain the microparticles. The invention also provides a process for preparing microparticles of a water-insoluble or poorly soluble compound. The process includes mixing particles of a water-insoluble or poorly soluble compound with at least one phospholipid and at least surfactant to form a mixture and applying energy to the mixture sufficient to produce microparticles of the compound. The methods of the invention allow for the production of microparticles smaller than particles produced through previously known methods and the microparticles exhibit advantageous properties including remarkable resistance to particle size growth during storage.
摘要:
This invention discloses an orally administered pharmaceutical composition comprising microparticles of solid fenofibrate that are stabilized by a phospholipid surface active substance that is present during the preparation of the microparticles, wherein a therapeutically effective amount of the composition provides a quantity of fenofibrate active species to a fasted human patient in need of treatment by fenofibrate that is greater than 80% of the quantity of fenofibrate active species provided by the same amount of the composition when administered to the same patient who has been fed a high fat meal consisting of at least 1000 calories, 50% of which are from fat. The present invention also provides a method of treatment of dislipidemia and dislipoproteinemia in a mammal consisting of administering a therapeutically effective oral dosage form comprising microparticles of a solid fibrate that are stabilized by a phospholipid surface active substance wherein the dosage form provides into the blood of the patient in a fasted state a therapeutically effective amount of a fibrate active species that is at least 90% of the AUC amount of the fibrate active species provided by the same dosage form into the blood of the same patient when the patient is in a fed state.
摘要:
This invention disclosure relates to compositions for the delivery of stable surface modified sub-micron and micron sized particles of water-insoluble biologically active substances from a non-aqueous medium that self-disperses on exposure to an aqueous environment.
摘要:
Disclosed is a pharmaceutically acceptable oral dosage form comprising fenofibrate, phospholipid, a buffer salt, a water-soluble bulking agent selected from maltodextrin, mannitol, and combinations thereof, a cellulosic additive, beads or crystals of a pharmaceutically acceptable water-soluble excipient support material, a polyvinylpyrrolidone or crospovidone, croscarmellose sodium, granular mannitol, sodium dodecyl sulfate, silicon dioxide, and a stearate, wherein the fenofibrate is in the form of microparticles, and wherein at least a portion of the phospholipid is coated on the surfaces of the fenofibrate microparticles, the phospholipid coated microparticles are embedded in a matrix comprising the water-soluble bulking agent, phospholipid that is not coated on the microparticles, the buffer salt and the cellulosic additive, and the matrix is coated on up to 100% of the surfaces of the beads or crystals of the excipient support material.
