Definitions
- the present invention is concerned with a solid slow release pharmaceutical dosage unit, incorporating cross-linked amylose (CLA) and associated ⁇ -amylase as slow release matrix.
- CLA cross-linked amylose
- ⁇ -amylase associated ⁇ -amylase
- the diffusion controlled systems which require hydrophillic polymers such as hydroxyethylcellulose, sodium-carboxymethylcellulose and the like, allow a sustained release of drugs, but do not permit a rigorous control since the release rate is not constant.
- the swelling-controlled systems are based on glassy homogeneous polymeric matrices free of internal channels, into which the water front penetrates at a constant rate. Behind this front, the polymer is in a rubbery state. If the diffusion coefficient of the drug is significantly higher in the rubbery state than in the glassy state of the polymer, a zero order release can be obtained, but only for a limited degree of release, usually around 60% from the total amount of loaded drug, and this only for the case of relatively low initial drug concentration (see N.
- Cross-linked amylose a semisynthetic material obtained by the cross-linking of amylose with a cross-linking agent such as epichlorohydrin, 2,3- dibromopropanol, has recently been introduced as a matrix for drug controlled slow release, wherein the drug dissolution rate is controlled by a mechanism based on hydrogen associations established following the compression, between amylose chains (see U.S.S.N. 787,721 filed October 31, 1991).
- Such CLA matrix provides substantially linear release kinetics.
- the release times of certain drugs can sometimes be higher than the usual release time observed for the majority of pharmaceutical products, which is about 15-24 hours. Release times exceeding 24 hours are generally undesirable, except for rare occasions.
- drugs cardiac, anaesthetics, sedatives, antihistaminics, etc.
- the optimal release time is of 6 - 12 h.
- a solid slow release pharmaceutical dosage unit made up of an admixture of 1) a therapeutic dosage of a pharmaceutical product; 2) a cross-linked polymer of amylose with a cross-linking agent, wherein the cross-linking has been carried out with from about 1 to about 20 grams of cross-linking agent per 100 grams of amylose; and 3) an enzyme for modulating the release of the pharmaceutical product.
- the pharmaceutical dosage unit comprises at least 40% by weight of cross-linked amylose (CLA), and no more than 60 % by weight of a pharmaceutical product.
- the amount of ⁇ -amylase present in the tablet is determined by its Enzyme Unit (EU) activity. Typically, an activity of 100 EU or less per tablet is sufficient. However, depending on the release time desired for a given pharmaceutical product, the enzyme activity can be modified at will in the tablet.
- EU Enzyme Unit
- the cross-linked amylose used in the course of the present invention is obtained by cross-linking amylose with a suitable cross-linking agent, such as epichlorohydrin, 2,3-dibromopropanol and the like.
- a suitable cross-linking agent such as epichlorohydrin, 2,3-dibromopropanol and the like.
- from 1 to 20 g of cross-linking agent are used per 100 g of amylose, corresponding to a cross-linking degree of 1 to 20, or CLA-1 to CLA-20 respectively, CLA-6 being the most preferred cross-linking degree.
- the particles of the cross-linked polymer of amylose have a size that varies generally between about 0.5 and about 5 microns. These particles form agglomerates of approximately 25-700 microns, as observed by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM).
- Figure 1 illustrates the release profiles of theophyl ⁇ ne in a tablet prepared in accordance with the present invention
- Figure 2 illustrates the release profiles of 4-acetaminophenol (acetaminophen) in a tablet prepared in accordance with the present invention
- Figure 3 illustrates the release profiles of acetanilide in a tablet prepared in accordance with the present invention
- Figure 4 illustrates the total release time of several drug depending on the contents of ⁇ -amylase in the tablet
- Figure 5 illustrates the influence of the activity of ⁇ -amylase in the dissolution media on the release profiles of acetanilide.
- the mechanism involved in the dosage unit of the present invention consists in that ⁇ -amylase is able to specifically recognize the CLA polymer as a semisynthetic substrate, and to catalyse the hydrolysis of its ⁇ -1,4 glucosidic bonds.
- the rate of the enzymatic hydrolysis is limited by the rate of water front penetration, which is itself controlled by the interchain hydrogen associations. Therefore, the amylose chains are slowly and partially nicked, but with the preservation of the three-dimensional structure over a long period, since the polymer is articulated by multiple amylose interchain bridges introduced by the cross-linking agent, and by interchain hydrogen associations created during the compression of the tablet.
- the release of the drug is therefore easily modulated by the ⁇ -amylase enzyme kinetics, which are controlled by the above mechanism.
- the solid slow release pharmaceutical dosage unit of the present invention can be obtained by the direct compression of an admixture of the drug in the required dosage, with an amount of ⁇ -amylase corresponding to a definite number of enzyme units, and with the CLA polymer.
- the amount of ⁇ -amylase in the CLA matrix depends on the required release time for a given drug under optimal release conditions.
- the present invention allows controUed release dosage units forms of various types of drugs. It is of importance however to note that the pharmaceutical product present in the solid slow release dosage unit of the present invention must not inhibit the activity of the ⁇ -amylase, since it would then destroy the beneficial effect of same. For example, if an acidic drug is associated with the dosage unit of the present invention, it is preferred to incorporate a buffer in the tablet in order to avoid such undesirable interactions between the drug and the enzyme.
- Amylose is a natural substance obtained from starch, a binary compound constituted by the amylose, based on non-ramified polyglucose chains, wherein the repetitive glucose units are linked by ⁇ -l,4-glucosidic bonds, and by the amylopectin branched polyglucose polymer with an important frequency of branching points based on ⁇ -l,6-glucosidic bonds.
- the ⁇ -amylase (EC 3.2.1.1) is the enzyme catalysing the specific hydrolysis of internal ⁇ -l,4-glucosidic bonds in polyglucose polymers such as starch, amylose and some of their derivatives.
- Cross-linked Amylose is a semisynthetic material exhibiting a three-dimensional structure, wherein the polyglucose chains are linked by transversal bridges introduced by the cross-linking reaction.
- the amylose is swollen in alkaline medium in a planetary mixer, with homogenization, and then the required amount of cross-linking agent is added, with moderate heating (40 - 70°C), continuing the reaction for a period of up to 1 hour.
- the type and the amount of cross-linking agent, as well as the reaction time can be varied.
- the resulting CLA is then dehydrated, dried and sieved, with retention of the particles having a size ranging approximately from 75 - 297 ⁇ m.
- ⁇ -amylase is able to recognize cross-linked amylose gel as a modified substrate, by affinity interactions (Mateescu et al, Anal.
- ⁇ -amylase is able to hydrolyse the ⁇ -l,4-glucosidic bonds of CLA in tablet forms, which allow an enzymatic controlled drug release (ECDR) system.
- ECDR enzymatic controlled drug release
- One EU is typically defined as the amount of enzyme necessary to catalyse the liberation of one ⁇ mole of maltose per minute.
- Different drugs for instance Theophylline, Aspirin, Acetaminophen, Acetanilide and Carnitine were selected for tests purposes. It will become obvious for any man skilled in the art that the present invention is not to be limited to these particular pharmaceutical products, but can also be applied to any drug with the restriction that the drug does not inhibit the activity of the ⁇ -amylase.
- Tablets of 13 mm diameter and 2.7 - 4.5 mm thickness were prepared by direct compression in a hydraulic press at more than 0.5 T/cm 2 ; unexpectedly and differently from the literature data, the release kinetics are not influenced by the compression strength of the tablet for the cross-linking range allowing the matrix stabilization by hydrogen associations.
- the cross-linking degree expressed as the amount (in grams) of cross-linking agent used per 100 g of amylose, is a critical parameter for the tablet's stabilization of hydrogen associations. Only low cross-linking degrees, that is from 1 to 20, allow hydrogen bonding, because the length of the interchain glyceric bridges produced by the cross-linking is about 8.7 A, and if they are not sufficiently distant from one another, hydrogen bonding (5.7 A) does not occur.
- the preferred amylose cross-linking degree is 6, but it must be kept in mind that other cross-linking degrees can be used, provided that they allow stabilization of the tablet by hydrogen associations, which control the hydration and consequently the hydrolytic enzyme activity.
- the slow water penetration reduces the rate of enzymatic hydrolysis to only a limited number of ⁇ -l,4-glucosidic bonds.
- the advancement of the partial nicking of the structure is limited to a few points only and therefore the drug release is well controlled by the two mechanisms implied: the hydrogen association and the ECDR.
- Example 1 Cross-linked amylose synthesis 1 kg of amylose and 6 I of sodium hydroxide 1 N were homogenized for 20 minutes in a Hobart tm planetary mixer tank A-200T at 55°C. Subsequently, 60 g (50.8 ml) of epichlorohydrin were added. After 20 minutes of homogenization, the mixture was neutralized with acetic acid, and the cross-linked amylose was filtered and washed with a solution of water/acetone (15:85) in a first step and then with water/acetone (60:40). The CLA was dried with acetone and then allowed to stand for 3 hours.
- the dry polymer was sieved (mesh openings of 75 - 297 ⁇ m) and stored - oom temperature.
- the cross-linking degree of this polymer being 6, it will be furth i referred to as CLA-6.
- Other CLA polymers with cross-linking degrees of 1, 4, 12 and 20 were synthesized in similar conditions, that is, 1, 4, 12 and 20 g epichlorohydrin/ 100 g of amylose.
- Tablets containing theophylline as the active agent Powders of theophylline, ⁇ -amylase and CLA-6 as obtained in Example 1 were mixed during three minutes, in a Turbula tm mixer in such proportion as to obtain CLA-6 tablets containing 100 mg of theophylline each, and amounts of ⁇ -amylase in the range 0 - 5 mg, the remainder being CLA-6.
- the enzyme used is pancreatic ⁇ -amylase, manufactured and sold by Sigma Chem. Co., St-Louis, Mo., and possesses a specific activity of 5 EU/mg protein. The activity of the enzyme was verified prior to the preparation of the tablet containing same. The release profile of these tablets is illustrated in Figure 1.
- Each tablet is placed in 1 I of NaHPO 4 /Na 2 HPO 4 buffer (100 mM, pH 7.0 at 37°C).
- the drug release is monitored in a USP dissolution apparatus equipped with a mechanical stirrer (100 rpm).
- the new Enzyme Controlled Drug Release (ECDR) herein presented based on the associated ⁇ -amylase with the CLA matrix within the tablet, is different from the External Bioerosion approach as release controlling system.
- the bioerosion mechanisms are based on the action of the external constituents (enzymes, ions, etc.) of the dissolution medium (e.g. gastric fluids) to generate gradual erosion of the tablets starting with the marginal layers. It is well known that these systems imply serious individual variations.
- the ECDR mechanism is based on internal enzymatic attack, initiated and conditioned by the water front penetration. The hydration and the CLA matrix swelling are controlled by the interchain hydrogen associations created by the compression of the cross-linked amylose during the preparation of the tablets.
- the drug release mechanism proposed in the present application is the result of two separate actions closely related to one another:
- the chains are therefore partially nicked, since the points of lysis are statistically distanced, in function of the ⁇ -amylase activity and the water penetration.
- the lysis doesn't lead necessarily to a massive breakdown of the matrix structure and to the excision of the oligosaccharidic fragments since the cross-linked amylose chains are articulated in a three-dimensional structure by multipoints cross- linking (several glucose units of vicinal amylose chains are simultaneously implied in the cross-linking by the cross-linking agent reaction).
- cross-linked amylose can be viewed as a global three-dimensional structure where at the level of nicking points, oligoglucidic fragments are still retained as "hinge joints" by the matrix, becoming mobile and hydrated, allowing the release of the drug.
- Enzymatic dosages, infrared and X-ray data as well as calorimetric studies support these considerations.
- the association of the ⁇ -amylase with a CLA matrix creates conditions of ⁇ -amylase substrate saturation (for example 395-400 mg CLA-6 compacted with 5 mg or less of ⁇ -amylase into a tablet having a dry volume of
