In accordance with the present invention, there are provided compositions and methods useful for the in vivo delivery of substantially water insoluble pharmacologically active agents (such as the anticancer drug paclitaxel) in which the pharmacologically active agent is delivered in the form of suspended particles coated with protein (which acts as a stabilizing agent). In particular, protein and pharmacologically active agent in a biocompatible dispersing medium are subjected to high shear, in the absence of any conventional surfactants, and also in the absence of any polymeric core material for the particles. The procedure yields particles with a diameter of less than about 1 micron. The use of specific composition and preparation conditions (e.g., addition of a polar solvent to the organic phase), and careful election of the proper organic phase and phase fraction, enables the reproducible production of unusually small nanoparticles of less than 200 nm diameter, which can be sterile-filtered. The particulate system produced according to the invention can be converted into a redispersible dry powder comprising nanoparticles of water-insoluble drug coated with a protein, and free protein to which molecules of the pharmacological agent are bound. This results in a unique delivery system, in which part of the pharmacologically active agent is readily bioavailable (in the form of molecules bound to the protein), and part of the agent is present within particles without any polymeric matrix therein.
摘要:
A multiparticulate bisoprolol formulation for once-daily oral administration, each particle of which comprises a core of bisoprolol or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof surrounded by a polymeric coating, the polymeric coating being effective to achieve an initial lag of bisoprolol release in vivo of at least 4-6 hours following administration and thereafter maintaining therapeutic concentrations of bisoprolol for the remainder of the twenty-four hour period. The formulation can be used for night-time dosing so as to minimize the likelihood of acute cardiovascular occurrences in the well-documented high risk period in the morning.

摘要:
The pharmaceutical formulation according to the invention is in the form of instant granules, in which the surface of the particles of at least two different soluble carrier materials is covered or coated with at least one layer which contains -of from 50 to 120, preferably from about 60 to about 100, parts by weight of active substance per 100 parts by weight of carrier material -of at least one, preferably insoluble or slightly soluble, active substance, such as amino acids or antioxidants. A first carrier material constitutes from about 50 to about 80% by weight of the total carrier material and is selected from carrier materials having a bulk density of between 58 and 100, preferably between 63 and 90 g/100 ml, while the second carrier material is selected from carrier materials having a bulk density of between 30 to 55, preferably between 33 and 50 g/100 ml.
摘要:
An antibiotic product for delivering at least Amoxicillin or Clarithromycin that is comprised of three dosage forms with different release profiles with each of Amoxicillin and Clarithromycin being present in at least one of the dosage forms.
摘要:
A high drug load spheronized beadlet is provided wherein said beadlet comprises about 80% to 100% by weight of an acid labile medicament, preferably didanosine, about 0% to about 10% by weight of a disintegrant, and about 0% to about 10% by weight of a binder selected from the group consisting of sodium carboxymethylcellulose, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, potassium alginate, and partially pregelatinized corn starch. A high drug load pharmaceutical composition, comprising the beadlet, with an enteric coating disposed thereon, is also provided.
摘要:
The present invention provides solid pharmaceutical compositions for improved delivery of a wide variety of pharmaceutical active ingredients contained therein or separately administered. In one embodiment, the solid pharmaceutical composition includes a solid carrier, the solid carrier including a substrate and an encapsulation coat on the substrate. The encapsulation coat can include different combinations of pharmaceutical active ingredients, hydrophilic surfactant, lipophilic surfactants and triglycerides. In another embodiment, the solid pharmaceutical composition includes a solid carrier, the solid carrier being formed of different combinations of pharmaceutical active ingredients, hydrophilic surfactants, lipophilic surfactants and triglycerides. The compositions of the present invention can be used for improved delivery of hydrophilic or hydrophobic pharmaceutical active ingredients, such as drugs, nutrionals, cosmeceuticals and diagnostic agents.
摘要:
Small diameter particles of biologically active molecules are produced by atomizing solutions of the molecules through a nozzle into very cold liquified gases, which immediately freeze the atomized droplets. The resulting frozen particles having diameters of approximately 10 to 90 micrometers are lyophilized to produce porous particles, suspended in a non-solvent for the molecules, and exposed to ultrasonic energy or homogenization to produce particles having diameters of 0.1 to 10 micrometers with greater than 70 to 95% of the initial biological activity of the molecules in solution.
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.
