Description

MODIFIED RELEASE PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS OF
TOPIRAMATE OR SALTS THEREOF
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to modified release pharmaceutical compositions of topiramate or salts thereof. By using at least two types of components, in which at least one type of the component comprising a matrix of topiramate or salts thereof and one or more release modifying substances, a modified release pharmaceutical composition of topiramate can be formed. The composition may provide extended and specific release of topiramate or salts thereof to achieve therapeutically effective plasma concentration over a period of 24 hours to treat epileptic conditions when administered to a patient in need thereof. The invention also includes process of preparing such composition.
Background of the Invention
Topiramate is a sulfamate-substituted monosaccharide approved in the US for use as an antiepileptic agent, as an adjuvant therapy for patients with partial onset seizures or primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures and marketed under the trade name of Topamax®. Topiramate has been also approved for the prophylaxis treatment of migraine headache. Chemically, topiramate is 2,3:4,5 Di-O-isopropylidene-p-D-fructopyranose sulfamate and has the following structural formula:
Figure imgf000002_0001
Many active pharmaceutical agents have been formulated as orally administrable extended release dosage form to permit once daily administration. Though topiramate has a relatively long half-life of 21 hours in vivo, it has not been formulated as a single, daily-dose because of its side-effects that often result with peak plasma levels of the drug when taken in high doses.
Each administration of currently available Topamax®, an IR dosage form, is associated with a peak in plasma concentrations of the drug, and the fluctuations associated with the peaks and valleys of blood plasma levels of the drug causing undesirable effects. Moreover, it is associated with severe side-effects including somnolence, dizziness, ataxia, speech disorders and related speech problems, psychomotor slowing, abnormal vision, difficulty with memory, paresthesia, diplopia, renal calculi (kidney stones), hepatic failure, pancreatitis, renal tubular acidosis, acute myopia and secondary angle closure glaucoma. Moreover, administration of the medicament in this manner (immediate release form) is cumbersome and patients can forget to take their medication in a timely manner.
The extended release of drug can be achieved either by coating the composition with release modifying substance or by dispersing drug in a matrix comprising one or more release modifying substance. In case of matrix-type dosage form, the drug is released over a period of time in the gastrointestinal tract upon dissolution or erosion of the matrix.
Extended-release dosage forms comprising a matrix system are conveniently prepared as compressed tablets. But drugs having relatively high solubility in water, for example a solubility of about 5 mg/ml or greater, present challenges to the formulator wishing to provide an extended-release dosage form and the higher the solubility the greater are the challenges.
US Patent No. 7,125,560 discloses a pharmaceutical composition in the form of core particles containing topiramate with sugar spheres as diluent wherein the core particles are coated with a taste mask coating. US Patent Nos. 7,61 1 ,728 and 7,351 ,695 discloses osmotic release pharmaceutical composition of topiramate and acceptable salts thereof.
US Patent No. 6,923,988 teaches the pharmaceutical compositions which can be used for improved delivery of hydrophilic or hydrophobic pharmaceutical active ingredients by encapsulating the composition with different combinations of pharmaceutical active ingredients, hydrophilic surfactant, lipophilic surfactants and triglycerides.
U.S. Patent No. 4,590,062 discloses a compressed product containing an active produced by dry blending with a matrix combination of a hydrophobic polymer (e.g. ethylcellulose) and a wax, fatty acid, neutral lipid or combination thereof.
U.S. Patent Application No. US 20090004281 discloses a modified release multiparticulate osmotic delivery system for oral administration. The composition includes an osmotic subcoat applied to core that includes at least one drug in combination with at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.
U.S. Patent Application No. US 20080131501 discloses a pharmaceutical composition which provides enhanced immediate release formulations of topiramate, in which 80% of the active ingredient is released in the period of time of not more than 30 min.
There exists an enduring need to develop an improved and simple modified release pharmaceutical composition of topiramate which will provide an alternative to existing formulations for treatment of epileptic conditions over a 24 hour period and simultaneously may reduce or eliminate the side effects associated with peaking and fluctuating plasma levels of the drug.
The inventors of the present invention have surprisingly found that by using two different types of components of topiramate in the composition, at least one of it being in the form of a matrix of topiramate and release modifying substances, the resulting composition may exhibit release of topiramate over a 24 hour period and/or reduce or eliminate the side effects associated with peaking and fluctuating plasma levels of topiramate.
The composition of the present invention relates to modified release pharmaceutical compositions comprising at least two types of components, wherein at least one type of the component comprises a matrix of topiramate or salts thereof and one or more release modifying substances. The component of the composition comprising said matrix exhibits sustained release of topiramate or salts thereof. The composition may provide extended and specific release of topiramate or salts thereof to achieve therapeutically effective plasma concentration over a period of 24 hours to treat epileptic conditions when administered to a patient in need thereof.
