Definitions
- the present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition in the form of encapsulated mini tablets comprising dabigatran etexilate free base or pharmaceutically acceptable salts of dabigatran etexilate and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.
- Dabigatran etexilate (Formula 1 ), which is already known from WO 98/37075, is a direct thrombin inhibitor indicated to reduce the risk of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with non-valcular atrial fibrilation.
- Thrombin is a multifunctional enzyme which converts fibrinogen to fibrin, cross-linking fibrin monomers via activation of factor XIII and augmenting further thrombin production via the activation of factors V and VIII. It also activates platelets, generates anticoagulant activity via activation of protein C and initiates numerous cellular processes.
- the methane sulphonic acid addition salt of dabigatran etexilate which is commercially available under the trade name PRADAXA® ® immediate release capsule (in the strength of 75, 1 10, 150mg), is disclosed in EP1870100, wherein also disclosed, pellet formulation of dabigatran etexilate methanesulphonate.
- This composition is formulated with a core material consisting of organic acid and an active layer which encloses the core.
- Each PRADAXA® capsule contains the following inactive ingredients: acacia, dimethicone, hypromellose, hydroxypropylcellulose, tartaric acid, carragenan, potassium chloride, talc, titanium dioxide, and gelatin.
- WO2012/077136 is directed to the oxalate salt of dabigatran etexilate and besides, its hydrochloride salt is identified in EP1877395. Also, it is known in the prior art that dabigatran etexilate is a weakly basic compound and therefore it has high solubility in acidic media.
- Dabigatran etexilate have been associated with gastrointestinal disorders such as ulcers and gastrointestinal bleeding.
- the administration of dabigatran etexilate may make some patients more susceptible to the ulcerogenic effects of ulcerogenic stimuli. It appears that a major factor contributing to the development of these gastrointestinal disorders is the presence of acid in the stomach and upper small intestine.
- the main object of the present invention is to provide a pharmaceutical composition in the form of encapsulated mini tablets comprising dabigatran etexilate free base or pharmaceutically acceptable salts of dabigatran etexilate and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient with safe and effective dissolution profile, an easy process and reduced adverse effects.
- mini tablet refers to small tablets with a diameter equal to or less than 4 mm that are typically filled into a capsule or further compressed into larger tablets. Thickness of this mini tablets equal to or less than 3 mm.
- the mini tablets have round shape and smooth surface to ease coating process.
- Mini tablets have many advantages. Due to increased surface in relation to volume, the drug can be released more efficiently incase of mini-tablets. Some benefits of mini- tablets include excellent size uniformity, regular shape and a smooth surface. In mini tablets, smooth surface offers an excellent substrate for coating with polymeric systems. It can be concluded that pharmaceutical mini-tablets offer several advantages when compared to single unit dosage forms and are also good substitutes for granules and pellets. They have well defined size, shape, surface, low degree of porosity and high mechanical strength. Due to significant smaller dimensions of the mini tablets, when compared to normal tablets, they pass through the stomach at a more even rate. As a result, the concentration of the drug in the blood can be easily reproduced. It has been found that, dissolution and stability problems are overcome by using mini tablet form.
- dabigatran etexilate free base refers to dabigatran etexilate which is free from other forms of the active moiety, especially acid addition salts.
- dabigatran etexilate free base or pharmaceutically acceptable salts of dabigatran etexilate is present in an amount of between 10.00 and 60.00 %, preferably between 20.00 and 50.00 % and more preferably it is 30.00 to 40.00 % by weight of total formulation.
