Definitions
- the present invention is directed to nanoparticulate formulations of angiogenesis inhibitors and methods of making and using such compositions.
- Nanoparticulate compositions are particles consisting of a poorly soluble therapeutic or diagnostic agent having adsorbed onto the surface thereof a non-crosslinked surface stabilizer.
- This invention is an improvement over that disclosed in the '684 patent, as the '684 patent does not describe nanoparticulate compositions comprising an angiogenesis inhibitor.
- the '684 patent describes a method of screening active agents to identify useful surface stabilizers that enable the production of a nanoparticulate composition. Not all surface stabilizers will function to produce a stable, non-agglomerated nanoparticulate composition for all active agents. Methods of making nanoparticulate compositions are described in, for example,
- Gastrointestinal Diagnostic X-Ray Contrast Agents and Oral Gastrointestinal Therapeutic Agents are Gastrointestinal Diagnostic X-Ray Contrast Agents and Oral Gastrointestinal Therapeutic Agents;" 5,643,552 for "Nanoparticulate Diagnostic Mixed Carbonic Anhydrides as X- Ray Contrast Agents for Blood Pool and Lymphatic System Imaging;” 5,718,388 for “Continuous Method of Grinding Pharmaceutical Substances;” 5,718,919 for "Nanoparticles Containing the R(-)Enantiomer of Ibuprofen;” 5,747,001 for “Aerosols Containing Beclomethasone Nanoparticle Dispersions;” 5,834,025 for "Reduction of Intravenously Administered Nanoparticulate Formulation Induced Adverse Physiological Reactions;" 6,045,829 “Nanocrystalline Formulations of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HTV) Protease Inhibitors Using Cellulosic Surface Stabilizer
- Amorphous small particle compositions are described in, for example, U.S. Patent Nos. 4,783,484 for "Particulate Composition and Use Thereof as Antimicrobial Agent;” 4,826,689 for “Method for Making Uniformly Sized Particles from Water-Insoluble Organic Compounds;” 4,997,454 for “Method for Making Uniformly-Sized Particles From Insoluble Compounds;" 5,741,522 for "Ultrasmall, Non-aggregated Porous Particles of Uniform Size for Entrapping Gas Bubbles Within and Methods;" and 5,776,496, for "Ultrasmall Porous Particles for Enhancing Ultrasound Back Scatter.”
- Angiogenesis means the formation of new blood vessels.
- Tumor angiogenesis is the growth of blood vessels from sunOunding tissue to a solid tumor, caused by the release of chemicals by the tumor.
- Other chemicals called angiogenesis inhibitors, signal the process to stop.
- Angiogenesis plays an important role in the growth and spread of cancer, as new blood vessels "feed" the cancer cells with oxygen and nutrients, allowing these cells to grow, invade nearby tissue, spread to other parts of the body, and form new colonies of cancer cells.
- angiogenesis inhibitors can be useful in preventing the growth of cancer by blocking the formation of new blood vessels from surrounding tissue to a solid tumor. This in turn might stop the tumor from growing and spreading to other parts of the body.
- angiogenesis inhibitors have successfully stopped the formation of new blood vessels, causing the cancer to shrink and die. See http://cis.nci.nih.gOv/fact/7 42.htm. Exemplary angiogenesis inhibitors given at cancer.gov (affiliated with the National Institutes of Health) are provided in the following table. Agent Description

- compositions comprising a nanoparticulate angiogenesis inhibitor composition of the invention.
- the pharmaceutical compositions preferably comprise at least one poorly soluble angiogenesis inhibitor, at least one surface stabilizer associated with the surface of the inhibitor, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, as well as any desired excipients.
- This invention further discloses a method of making a nanoparticulate composition having at least one poorly soluble angiogenesis inhibitor and at least one surface stabilizer associated with the surface of the inhibitor.
- Such a method comprises contacting a poorly soluble nanoparticulate angiogenesis inhibitor with at least one surface stabilizer for a time and under conditions sufficient to provide an angiogenesis inhibitor/surface stabilizer composition.
- the surface stabilizer can be contacted with the angiogenesis inhibitor either before, during, or after particle size reduction of the angiogenesis inhibitor.
- the present invention is further directed to a method of treatment comprising administering to a mammal a therapeutically effective amount of a nanoparticulate angiogenesis inhibitor composition according to the invention.
- the present invention is directed to the surprising and unexpected discovery that stable nanoparticulate compositions of angiogenesis inhibitors can be made.
- angiogenesis inhibitor compositions of the invention include, but are not limited to: (1) faster onset of action; (2) smaller tablet or other solid dosage form size, or smaller volume if in a liquid dosage form; (3) smaller doses of drug required to obtain the same pharmacological effect as compared to conventional microcrystalline forms of the same angiogenesis inhibitor; (4) increased bioavailability as compared to conventional microcrystalline forms of the same angiogenesis inhibitor; (5) substantially similar pharmacokinetic profiles of the angiogenesis inhibitor compositions of the invention when administered in the fed versus the fasted state; (6) bioequivalency of the angiogenesis inhibitor compositions of the invention when administered in the fed versus the fasted state; (7) improved pharmacokinetic profiles; (8) an increased rate of dissolution for the angiogenesis inhibitor compositions of the invention as compared to conventional microcrystalline forms of the same angiogenesis inhibitor; (9) bioadhesive angiogenesis inhibitor compositions; (10) the angiogenesis inhibitor compositions of the invention can be sterile filtered; and (11) the angiogenesis
- the invention encompasses the angiogenesis inhibitor compositions of the invention formulated or coadministered with one or more non-angiogenesis inhibitor active agents, either conventional (solubilized or crOparticulate) or nanoparticulate. Methods of using such combination compositions are also encompassed by the invention.
- 'stable' means that angiogenesis inhibitor particles do not appreciably flocculate or agglomerate due to interparticle attractive forces or otherwise increase in particle size.
- “Therapeutically effective amount” as used herein with respect to a drug dosage shall mean that dosage that provides the specific pharmacological response for which the drug is administered in a significant number of subjects in need of such treatment. It is emphasized that 'therapeutically effective amount,' administered to a particular subject in a particular instance will not always be effective in treating the diseases described herein, even though such dosage is deemed a 'therapeutically effective amount' by those skilled in the art. It is to be further understood that drug dosages are, in particular instances, measured as oral dosages, or with reference to drug levels as measured in blood. "Conventional active agents or drugs” refers to non-nanoparticulate or solubilized active agents or drugs. Non-nanoparticulate active agents have an effective average particle size of greater than about 2 microns.
- nanoparticulate angiogenesis inhibitors enable selection of an angiogenesis inhibitor with a long half-life in the blood stream while still providing the subject with a fast-acting compound.
- the angiogenesis inhibitor compositions of the invention have a T max of less than about 2.5 hours, less than about 2.25 hours, less than about 2 hours, less than about 1.75 hours, less than about 1.5 hours, less than about 1.25 hours, less than about 1.0 hours, less than about 50 minutes, less than about 40 minutes, less than about 30 minutes, less than about 25 minutes, less than about 20 minutes, less than about 15 minutes, or less than about 10 minutes.
- the angiogenesis inhibitor compositions of the invention preferably exhibit increased bioavailability, at the same dose of the same angiogenesis inhibitor, and require smaller doses, as compared to prior conventional angiogenesis inhibitor compositions.
- any drug including angiogenesis inhibitors, can have adverse side effects.
- lower doses of angiogenesis inhibitors which can achieve the same or better therapeutic effects as those observed with larger doses of conventional angiogenesis inhibitors are desired.
- Such lower doses can be realized with the angiogenesis inhibitor compositions of the invention, because the greater bioavailability observed with the nanoparticulate angiogenesis inhibitor compositions as compared to conventional drug formulations means that smaller does of drug are required to obtain the desired therapeutic effect.
- the invention encompasses an angiogenesis inhibitor composition wherein the pharmacokinetic profile of the angiogenesis inhibitor is not substantially affected by the fed or fasted state of a subject ingesting the composition. This means that there is no substantial difference in the quantity of drug absorbed or the rate of drug absorption when the nanoparticulate angiogenesis inhibitor compositions are administered in the fed versus the fasted state.
- the nanoparticulate angiogenesis inhibitor compositions of the invention substantially eliminate the effect of food on the pharmacokinetics of the angiogenesis inhibitor.
- the difference in absorption of the nanoparticulate angiogenesis inhibitor compositions of the invention, when administered in the fed versus the fasted state is less than about 100%, less than about 90%, less than about 80%, less than about 70%, less than about 60%, less than about 50%, less than about 40%, less than about 35%, less than about 30%, less than about 25%, less than about 20%, less than about 15%, less than about 10%, less than about 5%, less than about 3%, or essentially no difference.
- the difference in the rate of absorption (i.e., T max ) of the nanoparticulate angiogenesis inhibitor compositions of the invention, when administered in the fed versus the fasted state is less than about 100%, less than about 90%, less than about 80%, less than about 70%, less than about 60%, less than about 50%, less than about 40%, less than about 30%, less than about 20%, less than about 15%, less than about 10%, less than about 5%, less than about 3%, or essentially no difference.
- Benefits of a dosage form which substantially eliminates the effect of food include an increase in subject convenience, thereby increasing subject compliance, as the subject does not need to ensure that they are talcing a dose either with or without food. 4. Redispersibility Profiles of the Angiogenesis Inhibitor Compositions of the Invention
- an additional feature of the angiogenesis inhibitor compositions of the invention is that the compositions redisperse such that the effective average particle size of the redispersed angiogenesis inhibitor particles is less than about 2 microns. This is significant, as if upon administration the nanoparticulate angiogenesis inhibitor compositions of the invention did not redisperse to a substantially nanoparticulate particle size, then the dosage form may lose the benefits afforded by formulating the angiogenesis inhibitor into a nanoparticulate particle size.
- nanoparticulate angiogenesis inhibitor compositions benefit from the small particle size of the angiogenesis inhibitor; if the nanoparticulate angiogenesis inhibitor particles do not redisperse into the small particle sizes upon administration, then "clumps" or agglomerated angiogenesis inhibitor particles are formed, owing to the extremely high surface free energy of the nanoparticulate system and the thermodynamic driving force to achieve an overall reduction in free energy. With the formation of such agglomerated particles, the bioavailability of the dosage form may fall well below that observed with the liquid dispersion form of the nanoparticulate angiogenesis inhibitor composition.
- the redispersed angiogenesis inhibitor particles of the invention have an effective average particle size of less than about 2 microns, less than about 1900 nm, less than about 1800 nm, less than about 1700 nm, less than about 1600 nm, less than about 1500 nm, less than about 1400 nm, less than about 1300 nm, less than about 1200 nm, less than about 1100 nm, less than about 1000 nm, less than about 900 nm, less than about 800 nm, less than about 700 nm, less than about 600 nm, less than about 500 nm, less than about 400 nm, less than about 300 nm, less than about 250 nm, less than about 200 nm, less than about 150 nm, less than about 100 nm, less than about 75 nm, or less than about 50 nm, as measured by light-scattering methods, microscopy, or other appropriate methods. 5.
- Bioadhesive angiogenesis inhibitor compositions of the invention comprise at least one cationic surface stabilizer, which are described in more detail below.
- Bioadhesive formulations of angiogenesis inhibitors exhibit exceptional bioadhesion to biological surfaces, such as mucous.
- the term bioadhesion refers to any attractive interaction between two biological surfaces or between a biological and a synthetic surface.
- bioadhesion is used to describe the adhesion between the nanoparticulate angiogenesis inhibitor compositions and a biological substrate (i.e. gastrointestinal mucin, lung tissue, nasal mucosa, etc.). See e.g., U.S. Patent No. 6,428,814 for "Bioadhesive
- Nanoparticulate Compositions Having Cationic Surface Stabilizers which is specifically incorporated by reference.
- bioadhesive angiogenesis inhibitor compositions of the invention are useful in any situation in which it is desirable to apply the compositions to a biological surface.
- the bioadhesive angiogenesis inhibitor compositions coat the targeted surface in a continuous and uniform film which is invisible to the naked human eye.
- a bioadhesive angiogenesis inhibitor composition slows the transit of the composition, and some angiogenesis inhibitor particles would also most likely adhere to tissue other than the mucous cells and therefore give a prolonged exposure to the angiogenesis inhibitor, thereby increasing absorption and the bioavailability of the administered dosage.
- the present invention provides compositions of one or more angiogenesis inhibitors having a desirable pharmacokinetic profile when administered to mammalian subjects.
- the T max of an administered dose of a nanoparticulate angiogenesis inhibitor is less than that of a conventional non-nanoparticulate composition of the same angiogenesis inhibitor, administered at the same dosage.

- a nanoparticulate composition of the same angiogenesis inhibitor preferably exhibits a T max which is less than about 100%, less than about 90%, less than about 80%, less than about 70%, less than about 60%, less than about 50%, less than about 40%, less than about 30%, less than about 25%, less than about 20%, less than about 15%, or less than about 10% of the T ma ⁇ exhibited by the non-nanoparticulate composition of the angiogenesis inhibitor.
- a nanoparticulate composition of the same angiogenesis inhibitor preferably exhibits a C max which is greater than about 5%, greater than about 10%, greater than about 15%, greater than about 20%, greater than about 30%, greater than about 40%, greater than about 50%, greater than about 60%, greater than about 70%, greater than about 80%, greater than about 90%, greater than about 100%, greater than about 110%, greater than about 120%, greater than about 130%, greater than about 140%, or greater than about 150% than the C max exhibited by the non-nanoparticulate composition of the angiogenesis inhibitor.
- the desirable pharmacokinetic profile is the pharmacokinetic profile measured after an initial dose of an angiogenesis inhibitor.
- the compositions can be formulated in any way as described below.
- a first angiogenesis inhibitor composition providing a desired pharmacokinetic profile is co-administered, sequentially administered, or combined with at least one other angiogenesis inhibitor composition that generates a desired different pharmacokinetic profile. More than two angiogenesis inhibitor compositions can be co-administered, sequentially administered, or combined.

- the second, third, fourth, etc., angiogenesis inhibitor composition can differ from the first, and from each other, for example: (1) in the identity of the angiogenesis inhibitor; (2) in the effective average particle sizes of each composition; or (3) in the dosage of the angiogenesis inhibitor.
- Angiogenesis inhibitor compositions can produce a different T max . Such a combination composition can reduce the dose frequency required.
- the angiogenesis inhibitor has at least one surface stabilizer associated with the surface of the drug particles.
