Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to drug delivery, and more specifically relates to novel pharmaceutical dosage forms that provide pulsatile delivery of methylphenidate.
- the invention additionally relates to methods for administering methylphenidate using the novel dosage forms.
- compositions which provide a variety of drug release profiles, including immediate release, sustained release, and delayed release. That is, it may be desirable, for a particular drug, to prevent drug release after drug administration until a certain amount of time has passed (so-called “timed release”), to provide substantially continuous release over a predetermined time period (so-called “sustained release”) or to provide release immediately following drug administration (i.e., "immediate release”).
- Pulses For some types of drugs, it is preferred to release the drug in "pulses,” wherein a single dosage form provides for an initial dose of drug followed by a release-free interval, after which a second dose of drug is released, followed by one or more additional release-free intervals and drug release "pulses.”
- Pulsatile drug delivery is useful, for example, with active agents that have short half-lives and must be administered two or three times daily, with active agents that are extensively metabolized presystemically, and with active agents which lose the desired therapeutic effect when constant blood levels are maintained.
- a drug dosage form that provides a pulsatile drug release profile is also useful for minimizing the abuse potential of certain types of drugs, i.e., drugs for which tolerance, addiction and deliberate overdose can be problematic.
- the present invention is directed in part to a novel pulsatile drug delivery system which is straightforward to manufacture and provides precisely timed drug release "pulses" at desired intervals.
- Methylphenidate hydrochloride (HC1), the hydrochloride salt of ⁇ -phenyl-2- piperidine-acetic acid methyl ester (available commercially as Ritalin ® ), is a central nervous system stimulant that is used in the treatment of Attention Deficit Disorder ("ADD"), a commonly diagnosed nervous system illness in children that is characterized by both distractability and impulsivity.
- ADD Attention Deficit Disorder
- Methylphenidate HC1 is also used to treat a related disorder, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder ("ADHD”), in which symptoms of hyperactivity are present along with the symptoms of ADD.
- ADHD Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
- the drug is additionally used in the symptomatic treatment of narcolepsy, depression, and the cognitive decline associated with Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome ("AIDS") or AIDS-related conditions, as well as for mood elevation, particularly in terminally ill patients with diseases such as cancer.
- AIDS Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome
- Methylphenidate exists as four distinct isomers, as follows:
- the drug as used in therapy is a racemic mixture of the d- and l-threo enantiomers, which have been acknowledged as more active than the erythro pair.
- methylphenidate is a primary candidate for use in conjunction with the drug delivery systems of the invention.
- the present invention provides novel pharmaceutical dosage forms for the administration of methylphenidate in its conventional form, i.e., as a racemic mixture of the d-threo and l-threo enantiomers.
- the novel dosage forms provide for pulsatile drug release, thereby maximizing efficacy (i.e., the loss of clinical efficacy over time), reducing the potential for abuse or noncompliance.
- the invention thus represents a significant advance in the art, particularly in the administration of drugs such as methylphenidate that have short half-lives, tend to be extensively metabolized presystemically, have pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic relationships which are best described by positive (clockwise) hysteresis loops (hence resulting in tolerance when constant blood levels are maintained), or are likely candidates for drug abuse.
- No art of which applicants are aware describes pulsatile drug delivery systems as now provided herein.
- a primary object of the invention to address the above-mentioned need in the art by providing a pharmaceutical dosage form for pulsatile delivery of methylphenidate. It is another object of the invention to provide such a dosage form comprising at least two individual drug-containing dosage units, each of which has a different drug release profile.
- CNS stimulants including analeptic agents and psychostimulants
- antidepressant drugs including antianxiety agents and the like.
- active agent drug
- drug pharmacologically active agent
- methylphenidate refers to a racemic mixture of d-threo methylphenidate and l-threo methylphenidate, also referred to herein as "d,I- methylphenidate.”
- an effective amount or “pharmaceutically effective amount” of an agent as provided herein are meant a nontoxic but sufficient amount of the agent to provide the desired therapeutic effect.
- the exact amount required will vary from subject to subject, depending on age, general condition of the subject, the severity of the condition being treated, and the particular active agent administered, and the like. Thus, it is not possible to specify an exact “effective amount.” However, an appropriate “effective” amount in any individual case may be determined by one of ordinary skill in the art using routine experimentation.
- carrier a carrier comprised of a material that is not biologically or otherwise undesirable, i.e., the material may be administered to an individual along with the selected active agent without causing any undesirable biological effects or interacting in a deleterious manner with any of the other components of the pharmaceutical composition in which it is contained.
- carrier is used generically herein to refer to any components present in the pharmaceutical formulations other than the active agent or agents, and thus includes diluents, binders, lubricants, disintegrants, fillers, coloring agents, wetting or emulsifying agents, pH buffering agents, preservatives, and the like.
- a "pharmaceutically acceptable” salt or a “pharmaceutically acceptable” ester of a compound as provided herein is a salt or ester which is not biologically or otherwise undesirable.
- the invention features pharmaceutical dosage forms that provide for pulsatile delivery of methylphenidate.
- pulsatile is meant that a plurality of drug doses are released at spaced apart time intervals.
- release of the initial dose is substantially immediate, i.e., the first drug release "pulse” occurs within 1-2 hours of ingestion.
- This initial pulse is followed by a first time interval during which substantially no drug is released from the dosage form, after which a second dose is then released.
- the second dose is released on the order of 3-5 hours following ingestion of the dosage form.
- release of the second dose is followed by a second non-release interval, which is again followed by a "pulse" of drug release.
- release of a third dose occurs on the order of 7-9 hours following ingestion.
- either two or three release pulses are provided.
- the invention is also intended to encompass dosage forms that provide more than three pulses, with non-release intervals therebetween of approximately 2-6 hours, preferably 3-5 hours.
- each dosage unit comprises a compressed or molded tablet, wherein each of the tablets within the capsule provides a different drug release profile. That is, for an exemplary dosage form, a first tablet releases drug substantially immediately following ingestion of the dosage form, while a second tablet in the capsule releases drug approximately 3-5 hours following ingestion, and an optional third tablet provides drug release after approximately 7-9 hours. While the dosage form will not generally include more than three tablets, dosage forms housing four or more tablets are within the scope of the present invention.
- each dosage unit comprises a drug-containing particle or bead
- drug-containing "beads” refer to drug-coated inert supports, e.g., lactose beads coated with drug.
- a first group of these particles or beads releases drug substantially immediately following ingestion of the dosage form, a second group releases drug approximately 3-5 hours following ingestion, and an optional third group provides drug release after approximately 7-9 hours.
- the individual dosage units are compacted in a single tablet, and represent integral but discrete segments thereof (e.g., layers).
- drug-containing particles or drug-containing beads can be compressed together into a single tablet using conventional tabletting means.
- a number of methods are available for preparing drug-containing tablets or other dosage units which provide a variety of drug release profiles. Such methods include coating a drug or drug-containing composition, increasing the drug's particle size, placing the drug within a matrix, and forming complexes of the drug with a suitable complexing agent.
- the delayed release dosage units in the present capsules can be prepared, for example, by coating a drug or a drug-containing composition with a selected membrane coating material, typically although not necessarily a polymeric material.
- particularly preferred coating materials comprise bioerodible, gradually hydrolyzable and/or gradually water-soluble polymers.
- the "coating weight,” or relative amount of coating material per dosage unit generally dictates the time interval between ingestion and drug release.
- Suitable membrane coating materials for effecting delayed release include, but are not limited to: cellulosic polymers such as hydroxypropyl cellulose, hydroxy ethyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose, methyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose, cellulose acetate, cellulose acetate phthalate, cellulose acetate trimellitate, hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose phthalate, cellulose ester-ether phthalate, hydroxypropylcellulose phthalate, alkali salts of cellulose acetate phthalate, alkaline earth salts of cellulose acetate phthalate, hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose hexahydrophthalate, cellulose acetate hexahydrophthalate, and carboxymethylcellulose sodium; acrylic acid polymers and copolymers preferably formed from acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, acrylic acid alkyl esters, methacrylic acid alkyl esters, and the like, e.g.
- the third tablet or bead or particle fraction may be desirable for the third tablet or bead or particle fraction to provide for release of the active agent in the colon, in which case polymeric or other materials are used that enable drug release within the colon.
- polymeric or other materials may be used as will be known to those skilled in the art of pharmaceutical formulation and drug delivery.
- hydrocolloid gums may be effective to provide for colonic delivery, e.g., guar gum, locust gum, bena gum, gum tragacanth, and karaya gum (see, e.g., U.S. Patent No. 5,656,294 to Friend).
- Other materials suitable for effecting colonic drug delivery include polysaccharides, mucopolysaccharides, and related compounds, e.g., pectin, arabinogalactose, chitosan, chondroitin sulfate, dextran, galactomannan, and xylan.
- polysaccharides e.g., pectin, arabinogalactose, chitosan, chondroitin sulfate, dextran, galactomannan, and xylan.
- Combinations of different coating materials may also be used to coat a single dosage unit.
- the first tablet is provided with little or no coating material
- the second tablet is provided with some degree of coating material
- the coating weight of a third tablet is still higher, and so on.
- the drug- containing dosage units are beads or particles
- a first fraction of beads or particles is provided with little or no coating material
- a second fraction is provided with some degree of coating material
- the coating weight of a third fraction is still higher, etc.
- the first tablet when the dosage form contains three tablets (or, analogously, three groups of drug-containing particles or beads), the first tablet, which releases drug substantially immediately, may have a total coating weight of less than about 10%, preferably less than about 8%, the second tablet may have a total coating weight in the range of approximately 10% to 30%, preferably 15% to 25%, and the third tablet, if present, may have a total coating weight in the range of approximately 15% to 65%, preferably 20% to 65%.
- the preferred coating weights for particular coating materials may be readily determined by those skilled in the art by evaluating individual release profiles for dosage units prepared with different quantities of various coating materials.
- the delayed release dosage units i.e., tablets or particles
- a suitable material such as an insoluble plastic, a hydrophilic polymer, or a fatty compound.
- the insoluble plastic matrices may be comprised of, for example, polyvinyl chloride or polyethylene.
- Hydrophilic polymers useful for providing a matrix for a delayed release dosage unit include, but are not limited to, those described above as suitable coating materials.
- Fatty compounds for use as a matrix material include, but are not limited to, waxes generally (e.g., carnauba wax) and glyceryl tristearate.
- the individual dosage units may be provided with colored coatings, with a single color used to identify a tablet or bead or particle fraction having a corresponding delayed release profile. That is, for example, a blue coating may be used for the immediate release tablet or bead or particle fraction, a red coating may be used for the "medium" release tablet or bead or particle fraction, and the like. In this way, errors during manufacture can be easily avoided.
- the color is introduced by incorporating a pharmaceutically acceptable colorant into the coating during coating preparation.
- the colorant may be either natural or synthetic.
- Natural colorants include pigments such as chlorophyll, anattenes, beta-carotene, alizarin, indigo, rutin, hesperidin, quercitin, carminic acid, and 6,6'-dibromoindigo.
- Synthetic colorants are dyes, including both acidic dyes and basic dyes, such as nitroso dyes, nitro dyes, azo dyes, oxazines, thiazines, pyrazolones, xanthenes, indigoids, anthraquinones, acridines, rosanilines, phthaleins, quinolines. e.g., a dye or pigment, during preparation of the coating solution.
- the weight of each individual tablet in the capsule is typically in the range of about 10 mg to 150 mg, preferably in the range of about 25 mg to about 100 mg, and most preferably is in the range of about 40 mg to 80 mg.
- the individual tablets are prepared using conventional means.
- a preferred method for forming tablets herein is by direct compression of a powdered, crystalline or granular drug-containing composition, alone or in combination with diluents, binders, lubricants, disintegrants, colorants or the like.
- compressed tablets can be prepared using wet-granulation or dry-granulation processes. Tablets may also be molded rather than compressed, starting with a moist material containing a suitable water-soluble lubricant.
- Preferred tablets herein are manufactured using compression rather than molding, however.
- Drug-containing particles or beads are also prepared using conventional means, typically from a fluid dispersion.
- a delayed release coating composition may be applied using a coating pan, an airless spray technique, fluidized bed coating equipment, or the like.
- Optional components present in the individual drug-containing dosage units include, but are not limited to, diluents, binders, lubricants, disintegrants, stabilizers, surfactants, coloring agents, and the like.
- Diluents also termed “fillers,” are typically necessary to increase the bulk of a tablet so that a practical size is provided for compression.
- Suitable diluents include, for example, dicalcium phosphate dihydrate, calcium sulfate, lactose, cellulose, kaolin, mannitol, sodium chloride, dry starch, hydrolyzed starches, silicon dioxide, titanium oxide, alumina, talc, microcrystalline cellulose, and powdered sugar.
- Binders are used to impart cohesive qualities to a tablet formulation, and thus ensure that a tablet remains intact after compression.
- Suitable binder materials include, but are not limited to, starch (including corn starch and pregelatinized starch), gelatin, sugars (including sucrose, glucose, dextrose, lactose and sorbitol), polyethylene glycol, waxes, natural and synthetic gums, e.g., acacia, tragacanth, sodium alginate, polyvinylpyrrolidone, celluloses, and Neegum, and synthetic polymers such as polymethacrylates and polyvinylpyrrolidone.
- Lubricants are used to facilitate tablet manufacture; examples of suitable lubricants include, for example, magnesium stearate, calcium stearate, stearic acid, glyceryl behenate, and polyethylene glycol, and are preferably present at no more than approximately 1 wt.% relative to tablet weight.
- Disintegrants are used to facilitate tablet disintegration or "breakup" after administration, and are generally starches, clays, celluloses, algins, gums or crosslinked polymers.
- Stabilizers are used to inhibit or retard drug decomposition reactions which include, by way of example, oxidative reactions.
- Surfactants may be anionic, cationic, amphoteric or nonionic surface active agents, with anionic surfactants preferred.
- Suitable anionic surfactants include, but are not limited to, those containing carboxylate, sulfonate and sulfate ions, associated with cations such as sodium, potassium and ammonium ions.
- Particularly preferred surfactants include, but are not limited to: long alkyl chain sulfonates and alkyl aryl sulfonates such as sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate; dialkyl sodium sulfosuccinates, such as sodium bis-(2-ethylhexyl)-sulfosuccinate; and alkyl sulfates such as sodium lauryl sulfate.
- the tablets may also contain minor amounts of nontoxic auxiliary substances such as wetting or emulsifying agents, pH buffering agents, preservatives, and the like.
- auxiliary substances such as wetting or emulsifying agents, pH buffering agents, preservatives, and the like.
- the individual drug tablets, beads or particles are, in one embodiment, contained within a closed capsule.
- the capsule material may be either hard or soft, and as will be appreciated by those skilled in the art of pharmaceutical science, typically comprises a tasteless, easily administered and water soluble compound such as gelatin, starch or cellulose.
- a preferred capsule material is gelatin.
- the capsules are preferably sealed, such as with gelatin bands or the like. See, for example, Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, Nineteenth Edition (Easton, PA: Mack Publishing Co., 1995), which describes materials and methods for preparing encapsulated pharmaceuticals designed to dissolve shortly after ingestion.
- a dosage form of the invention comprises a total of approximately 2 mg to 100 mg methylphenidate, preferably 2 mg to 50 mg methylphenidate, divided among the individual dosage units.
- the first and second dosage units each contain approximately 2 mg to 20 mg methylphenidate, and preferably, the first and second methylphenidate doses are approximately the same.
- the third tablet should contain a lower dose of methylphenidate, preferably about half the dose in the first tablet, to avoid sleep disruption.

- Each of the active agents in the individual tablets may be in the form of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, ester, amide, prodrug or other derivative or analog, including active agents modified by appending one or more appropriate functionalities to enhance selected biological properties. Such modifications are known in the art and/or are described in the pertinent texts and literature.
- Salts of the active agents used in conjunction with the present dosage forms may be obtained commercially or can be prepared using standard procedures known to those skilled in the art of synthetic organic chemistry and described, for example, by J. March, Advanced Organic Chemistry: Reactions, Mechanisms and Structure, 4th Ed. (New York: Wiley- Interscience, 1992).
- Suitable acids for preparing acid addition salts may be weak acids, medium acids, or strong acids, and include both organic acids, e.g., acetic acid, propionic acid, glycolic acid, pyruvic acid, oxalic acid, malic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, aspartic acid, saccharic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, benzoic acid, cinnamic acid, mandelic acid, methanesulfonic acid, ethanesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, salicylic acid, and the like, as well as inorganic acids, e.g., hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid, and the like.
- organic acids e.g., acetic acid, propionic acid, glycolic acid, pyruvic acid, oxalic acid, malic acid, malonic acid, succinic
- esters are prepared using a pharmaceutically acceptable base such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, ammonium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, trimethylamine, or the like.
- a pharmaceutically acceptable base such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, ammonium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, trimethylamine, or the like.
- esters involves functionalization of hydroxyl and/or carboxyl groups which may be present. These esters are typically acyl-substituted derivatives of free alcohol groups, i.e., moieties which are derived from carboxylic acids of the formula RCOOH where R is alkyl, and preferably is lower alkyl.
- Pharmaceutically acceptable esters may be prepared using methods known to those skilled in the art and/or described in the pertinent literature. Amides, prodrugs, and other analogs and derivatives can be readily prepared as well, using conventional means.
- novel drug dosage forms are to be administered orally to a mammalian individual and can be used to administer methylphenidate to treat or prevent a variety of disorders, conditions and diseases.
- administration of methylphenidate may be carried out in order to treat any disorder, condition or disease for which methylphenidate is generally indicated.
- disorders, conditions and diseases include, for example, ADD, ADHD, narcolepsy, and acute depression; methylphenidate may also be used in the treatment of individuals suffering from cognitive decline associated with AIDS or AIDS-related conditions, and for mood elevation in terminally ill patients suffering from a disease such as cancer.
- the typical daily dose is in the range of approximately 5 mg to 100 mg, preferably 5 mg to 60 mg, although the exact dosage regimen will depend on a number of factors, including age, the general condition of the patient, the particular condition or disorder being treated, the severity of the patient's condition or disorder, and the like.
- a pulsatile release dosage form for administration of d, l-threo methylphenidate is prepared by (1) formulating three individual compressed tablets, each having a different release profile, followed by (2) encapsulating the three tablets into a gelatin capsule and then closing and sealing the capsule.
- the components of the three tablets are as follows.
- the tablets are prepared by wet granulation of the individual drug particles and other core components as may be done using a fluid-bed granulator, or are prepared by direct compression of the admixture of components.
- Tablet 1 is an immediate release dosage form, releasing the active agent within 1-2 hours following administration.
- Tablets 2 and 3 after this initial preparation, are coated with the delayed release coating material as may be carried out using conventional coating techniques such as spray-coating or the like.
- the specific components listed in the above tables may be replaced with other functionally equivalent components, e.g., diluents, binders, lubricants, fillers, coatings, and the like.
- Oral administration of the capsule to a patient will result in a release profile having three pulses, with initial release of the methylphenidate from the first tablet being substantially immediate, release of the methylphenidate from the second tablet occurring 3-5 hours following administration, and release of the methylphenidate from the third tablet occurring 7-9 hours following administration. Because Tablet 3 contains a lower dosage of methylphenidate than Tablets 1 or 2, the likelihood of sleep disruption is substantially reduced.
- a first fraction of beads may be prepared by coating an inert support material such as lactose with the drug which provides the first (immediate release) pulse.
- a second fraction of beads is prepared by coating immediate release beads with an amount of enteric coating material sufficient to provide a drug release-free period of 3-5 hours.
- a third fraction of beads is prepared by coating immediate release beads having half the methylphenidate dose of the first fraction of beads with a greater amount of enteric coating material, sufficient to provide a drug release-free period of 7-9 hours.
- the three groups of beads may be encapsulated as in Example 1, or compressed, in the presence of a cushioning agent, into a single pulsatile release tablet.
- three groups of drug particles may be provided and coated as above, in lieu of the drug-coated lactose beads.
