Description
STABLE CARFILZOMIB INJECTION.
RELATED APPLICATIONS
This application is related to Indian Provisional Application 2079/MUM/2014 filed 26th June, 2014 and is incorporated herein in its entirety.
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a stable Carfilzomib injection comprising Carfilzomib or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof with pharmaceutically acceptable excipients that substantially increase the solubility, wherein the said injection is free from cyclodextrin derivatives. Further the present invention also relates to a process for the preparation of the stable Carfilzomib injection and methods of treatment thereof.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Proteasome inhibitor compounds such as Bortezomib and Carfilzomib have been available as FDA approved drugs for the treatment of multiple myeloma. Carfilzomib Injection (KYPROLIS® available as 60 mg/vial) marketed by Onyx Pharms, is approved for use in patients with multiple myeloma who have received at least two prior therapies, including treatment with bortezomib and an immunomodulatory therapy and have demonstrated disease progression on or within 60 days of completion of the last therapy.
Chemically, Carfilzomib is a peptide epoxyketone compound, which is having very low solubility in water. Due to its chemical complexity and low aqueous solubility, it
results into several challenges to formulate pharmaceutical compositions with desired bioavailability. The chemical structure of Carfilzomib is shown as below:
Carfilzomib is disclosed in U.S. Patent Nos. 7,232,818; 7,417,042; 7491704 and 8129346, which describe the peptide epoxyketone compounds and its use for the treatment of cancer. U.S. Patent No. 7,737,112 discloses the pharmaceutical composition comprising Carfilzomib and a substituted cyclodextrin selected from hydroxypropyl beta-cyclodextrin and sulfobutyl ether beta-cyclodextrin (SBECD).
Since Carfilzomib has low aqueous solubility, the development of a stable Carfilzomib Injection is very challenging. Further, the cost-effective accessibility and feasibility of substituted cyclodextrins limits their extensive use. Hence there exists a need to make available simple methods of formulating stable lyophilized Carfilzomib Injections with pharmaceutically acceptable excipients.
The U.S. Patent Application No. US2014/073583 describes a liquid formulation comprising (i) Carfilzomib, (ii) a water-miscible organic solvent and (iii) a nonvolatile sugar acid.
Therefore, there exists the need for the development of a stable Carfilzomib Injection that substantially increases the solubility and provides the desired bioavailability. In particular, the present invention provides a stable Carfilzomib Injection as a pre- lyophilization solution that produces a stable lyophized powder. Alternatively, the present invention also provides a ready-to-use or ready-to-dilute composition.
OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION
The primary object of the present invention is to provide a stable Carfilzomib Injection comprising Carfilzomib or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof with pharmaceutically acceptable excipients that substantially increase the solubility and wherein the said injection is free from cyclodextrin derivatives.
