Benefits of technology

"The present invention provides stable pharmaceutical compositions suitable for oral administration that comprise bendamustine or a pharmaceutically acceptable ester, salt or solvate thereof as an active ingredient, and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient. These compositions have good stability and an improved dissolution profile."

Problems solved by technology

Furthermore, reconstitution has been reported to be difficult.
Further, it is burdensome and time-consuming for the healthcare professionals responsible for reconstituting the product in the 2 step process.
Therefore it is not surprising that the oral bendamustine compositions, as investigated by Preiss et al. and Weber gave rise to relatively poor bioavailability results and a large inter-individual variability.

Bendamustine Capsule Formulation (Prior Art)

[0059]20.0±1 mg of bendamustine hydrochloride were weighed into the body of an empty hard gelatine capsule, and put into a clear glass HPLC vial (6 ml) of Agilent. Capsules were closed by placing the cap on top of the body and slight pushing.

[0060]Capsules were stored at 40° C. / 75% RH (glass vial open) or 50° C. (glass vial closed). The amount of bendamustine hydrochloride and of related substances was measured with HPLC (column: Zorbax Bonus-RP, 5 μm; temperature of column oven: 30° C.; temperature of autosampler: 5° C.; detector: 254 nm). The results are shown in Table 1:

Abstract

In the present invention there is provided an oral pharmaceutical composition, comprising bendamustine or a pharmaceutically acceptable, ester, salt or solvate thereof as an active ingredient, and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient, which is a pharmaceutically acceptable non-ionic surfactant, selected from the group consisting of polyethoxylated castor oil or derivative thereof and a block copolymer of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide.

Description

[0001]The present invention relates to oral dosage forms comprising bendamustine or a pharmaceutically acceptable ester, salt or solvate thereof.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Bendamustine (4-[5-[bis(2-chloroethyl)amino]-1-methylbenzimidazo-2-yl]butanoic acid, a nitrogen mustard) is an alkylating agent with bifunctional alkylating activity. It corresponds to the following formula (I):Bendamustine appears to be free of any cross-resistance with other alkylating agents, which offers advantages in terms of chemotherapy for patients who have already received treatment with an alkylating agent.[0003]Bendamustine was initially synthesized in the German Democratic Republic (GDR). The hydrochloric acid of bendamustine was the active ingredient in a commercial product available from 1971 to 1992 under the trade name Cytostasan®. Since that time, it has been marketed in Germany under the trade name Ribomustin® and has been widely used to treat chronic lymphocytic leukemia, non-Hodgkin's lym...
