Definitions
- the present invention relates to a transdermal patch for the administration of nitroglycerin.
- Nitroglycerin is a vasodilator drug used in the prophylaxis and treatment of angina pectoris.
- this active principle is particularly suitable for transdermal administration.
- transdermal systems have been developed for the administration of active principles.
- drug-in-adhesive patches which consist of a support layer and a drug/adhesive blend, have proved to be particularly advantageous largely from the production viewpoint.
- the drug is dispersed directly in the adhesive which then simultaneously carries out a number of functions. Indeed, in addition to maintaining the patch in close contact with the skin, the adhesive also acts as a reservoir for the drug and as a modulator for its release.
- drug-in-adhesive patches are characterised by a high ratio of adhesive quantity to active principle quantity, and, in order to achieve the release of adequate amounts of drug, they possess a large surface area which makes them not easy for the patient to use.
- absorption enhancers are often used in the formulation of drug-in-adhesive patches, they being substances able to increase the permeability of skin to the active principle and so enable the active principle dose contained in the patch and the dimensions thereof to be reduced.
- the Minitran patch (3M Italia S. p. a.), which contains ethyl oleate as absorption enhancer, is that which, of commercially available nitroglycerin based transdermal patches, presents the most favourable ratio of active principle quantity contained to quantity released in vivo.
- Minitran enables a dosage of 15 mg/day of active principle to be administered via a formulation consisting of 54 g of nitroglycerin, 147 mg of acrylic acid copolymer derivative, 13 mg of ethyl oleate and 2.16 g of glyceryl monolaurate.
- Patent EP0561983 describes a transdermal patch for administering nitroglycerin which contains a sorbitan ester as absorption enhancer.
- the author states that said patch is characterised by a very high permeation rate across the skin, being higher than that observed with Minitran.
- absorption enhancers however has the drawback of reducing patients' tolerance to the patch in that, as these substances interfere with the structure of the skin, they often give rise to skin irritation phenomena.
- the present inventors have now found a new formulation for the preparation of a drug-in-adhesive patch suitable for the administration of nitroglycerin that enables the permeation of an adequate quantity of nitroglycerin to be achieved without the need to use absorption enhancers.
- the present invention provides a transdermal patch consisting of: a) a backing layer impermeable to nitroglycerin; and b) a matrix layer comprising:
- said matrix has a polymennitroglycerin ratio of at least 1 :1.
- the particular formulation of the invention surprisingly enables high doses of nitroglycerin to be incorporated into the patch without however interfering with its functional characteristics, particularly its adhesion capacity and capacity for release control.
- the patch of the invention enables satisfactory nitroglycerin permeation kinetics to be attained, without however the use of substances which can cause irritation, such as absorption enhancers. Detailed description of the invention
- the present invention provides a transdermal patch of the drug-in-adhesive type suitable for administering nitroglycerin, comprising: a) a backing layer impermeable to nitroglycerin, preferably consisting of low density polyethylene; and b) a matrix layer comprising:
- IV between 1 % and 3% by weight, based on the dry mass, of propylene glycol.
- V between 0% and 7.5% of other pharmacologically acceptable excipients.
- the matrix of the patch of the present invention has a polymernitroglycerin ratio of at least 1 :1.
- the matrix of the patch of the present invention presents the following percentage composition:
- the patches of the present invention do not contain the excipients of group (V).
- the transdermal patches of the present invention have a dimension and composition such that a release of 5, 10 or 15 mg of nitroglycerin is achieved in 24 hours:
- Patch 1 in which the surface of the matrix to be applied to the skin has an area between 6 and 7.3 cm 2 , preferably 6.7 cm 2 , and the matrix has the following composition:
- the aforesaid patch is suitable for achieving a nitroglycerin release of 5 mg/24 hours
- Patch 2 in which the surface of the matrix to be applied to the skin has an area between 12 and 14.6 cm 2 , preferably 13.3 cm 2 , and a matrix with the following composition:
- Patch 3 in which the surface of the matrix to be applied to the skin has an area between 18 and 22 cm 2 , preferably 20.0 cm 2 , and the matrix has the following composition:
- the aforesaid patch is suitable for achieving a nitroglycerin release of 15 mg/24 hours.
- the patches 1 , 2 and 3 are bioequivalent to Minitrans patches but compared therewith they have the advantage of not containing any absorption enhancers and are therefore more tolerated by patients.
- the present invention also provides a process for preparing said patches comprising the following steps: a) preparing a semi-solid adhesive mass containing the active principle and all the other components of the matrix; b) spreading the mass onto a siliconized support, for example siliconized polyester, to obtain a uniform and homogeneous film; c) drying the film; d) bonding the adhesive film to the backing; e) cutting the patches into the desired shape and dimensions.
- EXAMPLE 1 Preparation of patches able to release respectively 5 mg, 10 mg and 15 mg of nitroglycerin per day.
- the adhesive mass containing the nitroglycerin is spread onto an industrial spreader in order to obtain a uniform and homogeneous film; a siliconized polyester liner is used as the spreading support, which will form the final protective layer for the patch.
- the gap between the rollers, which determine the mass dispensed, is regulated as a function of the weight of the dried mass which must be equal to 91.32 g/m 2 ; this quantity of dried mass corresponds to a nitroglycerin concentration of 39.9 g/m 2 .
- the solvent is evaporated by means of drying in forced air ovens.
- the film with the liner is bonded to the low density polyethylene backing and wound into master rolls; the different affinity the adhesive film has with the liner compared to the backing enables transfer and anchorage of the adhesive onto this latter.
- the master rolls obtained are cut into bobbins whose dimensions vary according to the final patch dosage.
- the bobbins thus cut are loaded onto the forming machine which punches out the patches according to the specifications of the desired shape as shown in the following table:
- the permeation studies were conducted using Franz diffusion cells modified with an aperture 15 mm in diameter (membrane surface area 1.766 cm 2 ) and 7 ml cell volume.
- a phosphate buffer at pH 7 maintained under constant agitation was used as receptor fluid within the cell.
- the skin samples were placed over the aperture of the cells to form a membrane and the transdermal patches to be analysed were each placed over a membrane and fastened with clips.
- the steady-state flux was then determined for each patch by means of linear regression of the cumulative quantity of drug permeated across the skin ( ⁇ g/cm 2 ) as a function of time (h), to obtain the following results.
- Membranes consisting of the stratum corneum and epidermis (SCE membranes) were prepared by immersing the skin into distilled water at 6O 0 C +1 0 C for one minute followed by their removal from the dermis. The membranes were dried in a dryer at about 25% ambient humidity, wrapped in aluminium sheets and maintained at a temperature of about -20°C ⁇ 1 °C until required. Dried membrane samples were rehydrated at ambient temperature by immersing in a saline solution for 16 hours.
- SCE membranes stratum corneum and epidermis
- Each membrane was then mounted onto modified Franz diffusion cells, having a receptor volume of 5 ml and diffusion area of 0.636 cm 2 , and fastened by means of clips.
- the receptor liquid consisted of a phosphate buffer at pH 7.4, continuously stirred with a magnetic stirrer and temperature controlled at 37°C ⁇ 1 °C, so that the surface of the skin was at a temperature of 32° ⁇ 1 0 C. At pre-established intervals (1 h, 3h,
