Description

Medicament for colon release with multiple enteric polymer coatings
Invention field
The present invention relates near the colon porch certain a bit or discharge the spherical dosage form of unit of the novelty of therapeutic agent in the colon.
Background of invention
Need in colon, discharge from the therapeutic activity agent of oral administered dosage form in some cases, described situation comprises: (1) topical therapeutic colonic diseases, as constipation, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), Crohn disease, ulcerative colitis, cancer with do not need whole body to absorb the infection of therapeutic agent; (2) whole body absorb such as peptide and proteinic therapeutic agent, their can intracavity degraded in the harmonization of the stomach small intestinal; (3) whole body absorbs therapeutic agent, in oral back (promptly after the peak concentration that just needs to occur described therapeutic agent for a long time and pharmacologically active, oral before sleeping, the blood drug level peak value appearred to the preceding morning of getting up). colon discharges the therapeutic activity agent needs from oral administered dosage form: for Topically active or whole body absorption, can prevent to discharge described medicine, but allow in colon, to discharge at the harmonization of the stomach small intestinal.This preparation that requires successively to design has, with respect to other gastrointestinal tract part, the indication medicament arrives advantage (M.Ashford and the J.T.Fell of the gastrointestinal feature of colon, target administration magazine (J.Drug Targeting), 1994,2:241-258). variable feature comprises pH, ionic strength, superficial velocity and bacterial content and unit dose retention time (M.Ashford and the J.T.Fell therein of some region of anatomy chamber inclusions of gastrointestinal tract, the target administration magazine, 1994,2:241-258; S.S.Davis, controlled release magazine (J.Contr.Rel.) 1985,2:27-38).
Pharmaceutical unit dosage forms the retention time of stomach especially changeable (M.Ashford and J.T.Fell, target administration magazine (J.Drug Targeting), 1994,2:241-258).But unit dosage forms is constant relatively through the time of small intestinal, average about 3 hours (M.Ashford and J.T.Fell, target administration magazine (J.DrugTargeting), 1994,2:241-258).Residence time in the colon is usually than the length of gastrointestinal tract other parts, but the time in each section can change largely (M.Ashford and J.T.Fell, target administration magazine (J.Drug Targeting), 1994,2:241-258).
The pH characteristic of gastrointestinal tract chamber inclusions has also been characterized and has been found to be constant relatively (D.F.Evans, G.Pye, R.Bramley, A.G.Clark and T.J.Dyson, Gut, 1988,29:1035-1041). the pH of stomach can be changed by the meals state temporarily, but is usually less than about pH2.The pH of small intestinal is increased to about 7.2 of small intestinal tip part (ileum) gradually from about 5-5.5 in duodenal bulb.Obviously drop to approximately 6.3 at ileocecum junction pH value, be increased to about 7 gradually in the left side or the descending colon part of colon.
Colon is to have external antibacterial to exist with respect to the distinguishing characteristics of gastrointestinal tract other parts.Their energy enzyme catalysiss, and host animal can not carry out this reaction.
Usually have recognized that the medicament that design discharges for colon can show that preparation has arrived colon for the gastrointestinal tract other parts with one of following feature: the pH of (1) chamber inclusions up to the ileocecum junction total profile that raises; (2) unit dosage forms constant relatively retention time (the stomach retention time that compensation alters a great deal) in small intestinal; (3) exist in the colon external antibacterial (M.Ashford and J.T.Fell, target administration magazine (J.DrugTargeting), 1994,2:241-258).
The characteristic of the rising that the pH of employing gastrointestinal tract chamber inclusions is total typically adopts the film coating of enteric polymer as the dosage form of the design feature of indication arrival colon.These enteric polymers are in water and insoluble but began dissolved multi-anion copolymer at about 5 o'clock at pH at low pH.Commercially available enteric polymer begins dissolving when the about 5-7 of pH.
The example that utilizes this type ultimate principle to design at the colon delivery formulations comprises: USP5; 171; 580; December was authorized gondola Boehringer Ingelheim on the 15th in 1992; proposition is at large intestine; the preparation that particularly discharges in colon comprises the three layers of nuclear core that the protective layer coating of different solubilities is arranged of usefulness that contain active substance.Internal layer is Eudragit S, thickness is about the 40-120 micron, middle coatings is the polymer of swellable, coating thickness is about 40-120 micron, and skin is cellulose ethanoate phthalic acid ester, hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose phthalate, polyvinyl acetate phthalic acid ester, hydroxyethyl-cellulose phthalic acid ester, cellulose ethanoate tetrahydrophthalic acid ester or Eudragit L.In dosage form of the present invention, Eudragit S is only as outer.
USP 4,910, and 021,1990,3,20 authorize Scherer Corp., proposed a kind of targeting drug release system, and wherein compositions comprises hard capsule or the soft capsule that contains active component such as insulin and absorption enhancer.Capsule is used in pH and is higher than 7 o'clock abundant dissolved film-forming composition coatings of energy, and the result can make described capsule by corrosion or stripping.Film-forming composition is Eudragit preferably L, Eudragit RS and Eudragit The mixture of S, its consumption ratio are that deliquescent specific ratios can be provided more than pH7.
USP 4; 432; 966; 1984; 2; 21 authorize Roussel-UCLAF; proposed to have the compressed tablet of activating agent; applied by first coatings and second coatings; the film that first coatings comprises microcrystalline Cellulose and cellulosic low alkyl group ether mixture is formed with organic polymer; as ethyl cellulose, second coatings is selected from cellulose acetyl group phthalic acid ester; hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose phthalate; the benzo phenyl salicylic acid esters; cellulose acetyl group succinate; the copolymer of styrene and maleic acid; the gelatin of preparation; phenyl salicytate; keratin; stearic acid; myristic acid; glutelin; the copolymer of acrylic acid and methacrylic resin and maleic acid and phthalic acid derivatives.
Exist some difficulties with pH as the indicator that preparation arrives colon.Though the pH of chamber inclusions is increasing through small intestinal gradually from stomach, the pH of the chamber inclusions of proximal colonic is lower than small intestinal tip (ileum) and locates.This is because the existence that the effect of the about endophytic bacteria of colon has produced short-chain fatty acid.Therefore, given pH value can not distinguish the different piece of colon and small intestinal.Design makes therapeutic agent also can discharge therapeutic agent at small intestinal near ileum place (its pH is similar to proximal colonic) at the preparation that the pH of proximal colonic discharges.Therefore, people have proposed query M.Ashford, J.T.Fell, target administration magazine, 1994,2:241-258 to the effectiveness that uses enteric coating to reach colon release; M.Ashford, J.T.Fell, D.Attwood, and P.J.woodhead, Inpharm magazine, 1993,91:241-245; M.Ashford, J.T.Fell, D.Attwood, H.L.Sharma and P.J.woodhead, the Inpharm magazine, 1993,95:193-199).
Though only the pH of chamber inclusions can not make other different piece of colon and small intestinal make a distinction, but pH value can distinguish stomach and small intestinal and colon really. use enteric polymer coatings that stomach and small intestinal are distinguished in the prior art widely, and prevent that preparation from discharging therapeutic agent before the stomach emptying.This application causes being studying for a long period of time that the safety that confirms these polymer is carried out, and lot of documents has disclosed these polymer are applied to the appropriate method on the preparation and the commercial source of many enteric polymers as the coating thing.
Now have recognized that, the dosage form (its time delay is corresponding to the time of staying of harmonization of the stomach small intestinal) that therapeutic agent postpone to be discharged will provide colon discharge (S.S.Davis, J.Contr.Rel., 1985,2:27-38).This supposes that mainly based on the constant rational residence time in small intestinal other use enteric polymer coatings can prevent based on postponing the stomach residence time that the machine-processed time activates compensate for variable before making preparation arrive small intestinal.The time delay mechanism that proposes comprise based on slow stripping (A.Gazzaniga, P.Lamartino, the G.Maffione and the M.E.Sangalli of the irrelevant coating of pH, Proceed.6th Int.Conf.on Pharm.Techn. (Paris) 305-313,1992), controlled and pH are irrelevant, the infiltration that water is coated is so that activate disintegrate (F.Theeuwes, the P.L.Wong of dosage form by osmotic pressure, T.L.Burkoth and D.A.Fox, absorb and metabolism at colonic drug, P.R.Bieck edits, Marcel Dekker, Inc., New York, Basel, Hong Kong, 137-158 (1993)) or by physics swelling (R.Ishino, H.Yoshino, Y.Kirakawa and K.Noda, Chem.Pharm, Bull., 1992,40:3036-3041) reach the hydration that has nothing to do with pH and come swelling and ejection stopper (I.R.Wilding, S.S.Davis, M.Bakhshaee, H.N.E.Stevens, R.A.Sparrow and J.Brennan, Pharm.Res., 1992,9:654-657).Such means are in the preparation size, the repeatability of release time, and complexity and expense aspect can not be entirely satisfactory.
Though enteric polymer has very long commerce to use history and they stomach residence times of compensate for variable inherently, produce therapeutic agent based on the time with their and postpone to discharge (based on the dissolving of enteric polymer coatings) and do not obtain promotion.The chances are for this because the changeableness of enteric polymer stripping is the function with small intestinal and colonic lumen inclusions pH and rapid change.But the dosage form that discharges with the colon that reaches the preparation polymer coating dissolution time that discharges based on the intestinal colon with enteric polymer has various advantages with regard to certified safety of these polymer and industrial applicibility method.
An object of the present invention is to provide by using unique, a plurality of enteric polymer coatings layers, the colon that makes therapeutic agent just postpone the unit dosage forms that discharges up to proximal colonic discharges therapeutic agent.
Summary of the invention
The present invention relates to for gastrointestinal people or lower animal being arranged with the oral pharmaceutical composition of unit dosage forms, described gastrointestinal tract comprises small intestinal and colon, and there is tube chamber the centre, from small intestinal one colon that enters the mouth is arranged, and described compositions comprises:
A. mix or wrap in the therapeutic activity agent of the safe and effective amount on dosage form surface, described dosage form is selected from sphere matrix, ellipticalness substrate, hard capsule or compressed tablets, and its maximum gauge is about 3 millimeters to 10 millimeters; With
B. the enteric polymer coatings material that comprises coatings and one deck outer coatings layer in one deck at least;
Dosage form smooth surface wherein, non-flanged or sharp keen curve; The ratio in the long and short footpath of ellipticalness substrate and hard capsule is not more than about 1.5; The therapeutic activity agent near the porch of colon certain a bit or in colon, discharge; Coatings is to begin dissolved enteric polymer in pH for the aqueous medium between about 5-6.3 in each; The outer coatings layer is to begin dissolved enteric polymer in pH for the aqueous medium between about 6.8-7.2.
Detailed Description Of The Invention
Use enteric polymer to come the later treatment agent to discharge from pharmaceutical unit dosage forms, arrive colon until described dosage form, this is not success fully as yet so far.Unsuccessful reason comprises:
A. with respect to distal small intestine (ileum), the pH of proximal colonic chamber inclusions reduces, the recognition factor that this has hindered foregoing use pH to discharge as colon;
B. be difficult to design the enteric polymer coatings on a kind of unit dosage forms, when this dosage form remains in the small intestinal, because the small intestinal and the pH of colonic lumen inclusions and the variation coating of speed can dissolve fully; With
C. in conventional unit formulation, the weak part of the enteric polymer coatings of formation edge and sharp keen curve breaks enteric polymer coatings too early and discharges therapeutic agent.
What the dosage form of enteric polymer coatings of the present invention was designed to therapeutic agent delays release time roughly corresponding to the time of staying in small intestinal, rather than with given pH value as the recognition factor that arrives colon.This has eliminated proximal colonic with respect to the ileum pH caused problem that descends.
The present inventor has found that, solubility behavior that can be by 1. selected enteric polymers is as dosage form size and the pH of aqueous medium and the knowledge of function of speed, 2. by estimating that the pH of the segmental chamber of dissection inclusions and superficial velocity decide the consumption and the type of the needed enteric polymer of the time of staying that makes therapeutic agent delay to discharge roughly to be equivalent in small intestinal continuously for small intestinal and colon.Because need be in colon final stripping enteric coating, must select the enteric polymer of component unit dosage form coatings and be applied on the dosage form, the result was proximal colonic or at maximum pH about 6.3 o'clock, and coating can dissolve.If use single enteric polymer, reaching therapeutic agent, to delay to discharge required enteric polymer consumption quite big, substantially exceeds consumption that prior art discloses (referring to P﹠amp; The patent application of awaiting the reply jointly of G, file number: 5673, Kelm and Manring, 1995,5,17 submit to).But,, can reduce and reach the total amount that slow release is put the enteric polymer coatings agent that needs if use unique, a plurality of enteric polymer coatings layers.Outermost layer is made of enteric polymer, and described enteric polymer begins dissolving when the about 6.8-7.2 of pH, and its consumption is such, makes this coatings in the consoluet amount in distal small intestine part (ileum) lining.Interior coatings is made of the dissolved enteric polymer of beginning under the about 5.0-6.3 of pH, and its consumption is can dissolve fully substantially in proximal colonic.Like this, the function of outer coatings layer is to discharge when dosage form prevents therapeutic agent during through the gastrointestinal tract tip.The function of interior coatings is the release of further later treatment agent, arrives the colon proximal end until dosage form.
Dosage form of the present invention enteric polymer coatings dissolving fully basically before discharging therapeutic agent ideally is so that the predetermined dissolution time of enteric polymer coatings of guaranteeing specified rate is corresponding to release time that delays of therapeutic agent.This requires the enteric polymer film coating thickness on the dosage form even.Weak part in the enteric polymer coatings can betide the edge and the sharp keen curve place of conventional formulation, causes enteric polymer coatings to break too early and the release of therapeutic agent.Therefore, dosage form of the present invention is spheric or oval-shaped, and size is almost even, has slick surface, does not have edge or sharp keen curve basically, so that each unit dosage forms has the enteric polymer coatings of uniform thickness.
The present invention relates to for gastrointestinal people or lower animal being arranged with the oral pharmaceutical composition of unit dosage forms, described gastrointestinal tract comprises small intestinal and colon, and there is tube chamber the centre, from small intestinal one colon that enters the mouth is arranged, and described compositions comprises:
A. mix or wrap in the therapeutic activity agent of the safe and effective amount on dosage form surface, described dosage form is selected from sphere matrix, ellipticalness substrate, hard capsule or compressed tablets, and its maximum gauge is about 3 millimeters to about 10 millimeters; With
B. the enteric polymer coatings material that contains at least one an interior coatings and an outer coatings layer;
Dosage form smooth surface wherein, non-flanged or sharp keen curve; The ratio in the long and short footpath of ellipticalness substrate and hard capsule is not more than about 1.5; The therapeutic activity agent near the porch of colon certain a bit or in colon, discharge; Coatings is the dissolved enteric polymer of beginning in the aqueous medium between the about 5-6.3 of pH in each; The outer coatings layer is the dissolved enteric polymer of beginning in the aqueous medium between the about 6.8-7.2 of pH.
The routine that dosage form of the present invention is different from the period that prolongs slow release therapeutic agent and has a prolongation discharges the compositions that the control (delaying) of the continued treatment effect that can reach is released.Dosage form of the present invention prevents the release of active therapeutic agent before dosage form arrives colon.Therapeutic agent rate of release subsequently requires to decide according to the pharmacokinetics of particular therapeutic agent, can be from rapidly to slowly.
Preferably, the enteric polymer coatings material has an interior coatings and an outer coatings layer.
The therapeutic activity agent
