Description

A TABLET OF TOLVAPTAN AND AT LEAST ONE BINDER PROCESSED WITH WET GRANULATION
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a tablet comprising an intragranular composition comprising amorphous tolvaptan and at least one binder, wherein the intragranular composition is obtained by wet-granulation using water.
Background of the Invention
Tolvaptan is an orally bioavailable, selective, arginine vasopressin receptor 2 (V2, AVPR2) antagonist that can be used to treat hyponatremia. Upon oral administration, tolvaptan selectively and competitively binds to and blocks the V2 receptor located in the walls of the vasculature and luminal membranes of renal collecting ducts, thereby preventing the binding of vasopressin to the V2 receptor. This prevents water absorption in the kidneys and increases the excretion of electrolyte- free water via the kidneys. This reduces intravascular volume and increases serum sodium concentrations and osmolality.
Tolvaptan is chemically described as N-(4-(7-Chloro-5-hydroxy-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-lH- benzo[b]azepine-l-carbonyl)-3-methylphenyl)-2-methylbenzamide. Its empirical formula is
C26H25CIN2O3, with structural formula as follows:
Figure imgf000002_0001
Tolvaptan is available as oral tablets containing 15 mg and 30 mg of tolvaptan, with trade name SAMSCA® by Otsuka America Pharmaceutical for the treatment of clinically significant hypervolemic and euvolemic hyponatremia.
Tolvaptan is a class IV drug in the BCS classification, that is, a low-soluble and hypotonic drug. For poorly soluble drugs, its dissolution is the rate-limiting process of absorption, and is often the most important factor affecting its bioavailability. U.S. Pat. No. 5,258,510 disclose tolvaptan.
CN102366412 (A) discloses a preparation method of a tolvaptan tablet. The method is wet granulation without water.
WO2008156217 (A2) discloses a pharmaceutical solid preparation comprising tolvaptan and hydroxypropylcellulose containing a hydroxypropoxyl group in an amount of 50 wt.% or greater. Also, a method for preparing the pharmaceutical solid preparation discloses. The method is wet or dry granulation.
In prior art, there are also several patents which disclose tolvaptan in oral pharmaceutical dosage forms. However, despite the dissolution problem of tolvaptan, an effective formulation and method has not been disclosed.
There still remains a need in the art to provide an improved a tablet comprising tolvaptan having high solubility, excellent pharmacomechanic properties and accordingly a high bioavailability and a long-term stability which is also obtained by using wet granulation.
Detailed Description of the Invention
The main object of the present invention is to provide a tablet comprising amorphous tolvaptan with having desired level of dissolution rate and high stability and excellent pharmacomechanic properties, such as flowability, compressibility and content uniformity which overcomes the abovedescribed problems in the prior art and have additive advantages over them.
Another object of the present invention is to provides a process for a tablet composition comprising tolvaptan or crystalline polymorph thereof. The process is a simple, rapid, cost effective, time-saving and industrially convenient method.
Tolvaptan is poorly soluble in water. This causes problems of dissolution profile and bioavailability. In the present invention, some studies have been done so that these problems do not appear.
It was seen that Tolvaptan Amorphous is better solubility than Tolvaptan Crystalline. In addition to solubility in the pharmaceutical composition, stability is also very important. It is very important for its stability that amorphous tolvaptan can be produced without turning into crystals and that it remains amorphous throughout its shelf life. To achieve this, it is found that for a tablet comprising amorphous tolvaptan, using wet granulation method with water is used and both the desired dissolution profile and stability is achieved. As used herein, the term "intragranular composition" refers to a population of granules that are wetted with solvent and then dried and granulated. Intragranular composition can be called also "granulate" or "granulate component". The "extragranular composition" refers is the part that does not participate in wet granulation.
According to this embodiment of the present invention, a tablet comprises an intragranular composition comprising amorphous tolvaptan and at least one binder, wherein the intragranular composition obtained by wet-granulation using water. These properties provide the desired dissolution profile and stability. Also, these provide the desired hardness and compressibility.
When amorphous tolvaptan treated with water, transition from amorphous to crystalline has not been observed. We found that when using else a solvent (for example ethyl alcohol and water mixture) during process, transition from amorphous form to crystalline form is seen.
Also, tolvaptan is used small proportion that can lead to considerable problems during the manufacture of the composition with regard to the uniformity of the content of active agent in the individual composition units. Because of problems uniformity of the content, the active substance may interact with several excipients. It reflects that content uniformity play important role in the dissolution of the drug. In this invention, to eliminate this problem, wet granulation is preferred in terms of pharmacotechnical properties, such as flowability, compressibility and content uniformity of tolvaptan.
Suitable binders are selected from the group comprising polyvinylpyrrolidone, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, polyethylene glycol, starch, pregelatinized starch, sodium alginate, hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, carboxy methyl cellulose, methyl cellulose, polymethacrylates, methacrylate polymers, hyaluronic acid, pectin, polysaccharides, polyacrylamide, polyoxyethylene-alkyl ether, polydextrose, polyethylene oxide or mixtures thereof.
The viscosity of a binder is a measure of its flow characteristics, and the performance of a bituminous mix is greatly affected by its viscosity. In the present invention, binders having low viscosity are used.
According to one embodiment of the present invention, the binder is polyvinylpyrrolidone. Polymer having low viscosity is povidone with a dynamic viscosity of 10% aqueous solution at 25°C up to about 10 mPa.s. Povidone is selected from the consisting of K12, K17, K25,K30, VA 64 and mixture thereof, more preferably VA 64. We saw that the use of the binder surprisingly achieved content uniformity, the desired flowabilirty and homogeneity of active agent. According to one embodiment of this invention, the amount of binder is between 1.0% and 20.0%, between 1.0% and 15.0% by weight of the total composition.
According to one embodiment of this invention, the amount of binder is between 3.0% and 10.0% by weight of the total composition.
According to one embodiment of this invention, the amount of amorphous tolvaptan is between 5.0% and 25.0%, between 8.0% and 25.0%, between 10.0% and 20.0% by weight of the total composition.
We have found that amorphous tolvaptan having the following particle sizes is important for formulation. Too small particle sizes influence the manufacturability, for example by sticking or filming. On the other hand too large particles negatively affect the dissolution properties of the pharmaceutical composition and dosage form and thus the bioavailability. In the following preferred ranges of the particle size distribution are described.
As used here in, "particle size distribution" is defined by the cumulative volume size distribution as tested by a conventionally accepted method which is the laser diffraction method determined by the equipment of Malvern Mastersizer 2000 laser diffraction particle size analyzer analyzer. "D (0.9)" or "d90" means that the size at which %90 by volume of the particles are finer, d (0.1) means that the size at which 10% by volume of the particles are finer and d (0.5) means that the size at which 50% by volume of the particles are finer.
