PRIOR ART

[0093] The compounds of the abovementioned group (A) to (CJ) are highly effective CGRP antagonists for treating migraine which cannot be administered orally in conventional formulations as these substances have very limited bioavailability by the oral route both as an active substance bases and in the form of the salts.

[0094] Oral administration of an active substance is generally the most practical form for the patient. As acute migraine attacks are often accompanied by nausea and vomiting, however, oral administration of an anti-migraine drug may be difficult or even impossible.

[0095] In an acute migraine attack it is essential that the effect of the drug taken should set in immediately or at least soon after it is taken, which means that effective plasma levels should advantageously be achieved shortly after administration. The possibilities in connection with this would be intravenous, intramuscular or subcutaneous administration by injection. This complex procedure, particularly as it involves an increased risk of infection, is not suitable for general use, however.

[0096] As an alternative to absorption through the gastrointestinal tract the nasal mucosa constitute a surface which is theoretically equally suitable for the absorption of medicaments. In the nasal epithelium the biotransformation of drugs is substantially less marked than in the gastrointestinal tract or in the liver, so that rapid absorption of suitable active substances into the bloodstream and the absence of a first-pass metabolism can be expected. Under these conditions it ought to be possible rapidly to obtain high plasma levels similar to those obtained by injection.

[0097] Conventional nasal applications use propellants to ensure satisfactory administration. As a rule, standard commercial propellants are chlorofluorohydrocarbons as well as fluorohydrocarbons, which makes formulations of this kind problematic in terms of environmental protection.

[0098] Aqueous formulations in pump or valve sprays which can be used without propellants have to be made durable by the addition of preservatives. However, preservatives are linked with a high allergy potential, which is why allergy sufferers cannot use these pharmaceutical compositions. In addition all the permitted preservatives are cytotoxic and affect ciliary function and hence also clearance.

[0099] Another disadvantage of the nasal absorption of active substances from aqueous solutions is their pH dependency. The optimum medium for the cilia of the nasal mucosa is a pH of 7 to 9. However, maximum absorption is achieved at a pH below 6.

STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

[0100] The objective of the present invention was to provide a rapidly bioavailable formulation for the abovementioned highly active CGRP antagonists (A) to (CJ), by means of which the problem of low oral availability is circumvented. The formulation according to the invention should have a rapid onset of activity for treating acute pain which sets in very suddenly in migraine. This means that a rapid uptake of the active substance and a fast rise in the plasma level have to be guaranteed. The formulation according to the invention should be available in a form which also allows it to be used to treat migraine attacks that happen only sporadically. In addition, the susceptibility of the active agent to oxidative decomposition throughout the storage time of the product should be borne in mind when designing effective protection against oxygen.

[0101] A high plasma level of active substances (A) to (CJ) and hence a rapid onset of activity for the treatment of acute pain in the shortest time possible can be achieved not only by intravenous administration but also via the nose as the organ of administration according to the invention.

[0102] Within the scope of the present invention it has now surprisingly been found that the CGRP antagonists (A) to (CJ) according to the invention may be made sufficiently bioavailable by administration via the nose in the form of their salts with physiologically acceptable solubilising acids, preferably their salts with hydrochloric acid in the form of the hydrochlorides.

[0103] A first object of the invention is therefore a pharmaceutical composition for nasal application in the form of an aqueous solution, comprising

[0104] (a) 2% to 25% w/v, preferably 10% to 20% w/v of an active substance, selected from the group (A) to (CJ) consisting of

[0193] (b) at least one equivalent of a physiologically acceptable solubilising acid, the active substance being converted by means of the acid into the corresponding salt and being dissolved in anionic form.

[0194] A preferred embodiment according to the invention contains the compounds

[0195] (A) 1-[N2-[3,5-dibromo-N-[[4-(3,4-dihydro-2(1H)-oxoquinazolin-3-yl)-1-piperidinyl]-carbonyl]-D-tyrosyl]-L-lysyl]-4-(4-pyridinyl)-piperazine or

[0196] (B) 1-[4-amino-3,5-dibromo-N-[[4-(2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2(1H)-oxo-1,3-benzodiazepin-3-yl)-1-piperidinyl]carbonyl]-D-phenylalanyl]-4-(1-piperidinyl)-piperidine.

[0197] To solubilise the active substance bases, which have only limited solubility, they are reacted with an at least equimolar amount, preferably with 1.2 to 2 equivalents, more preferably with 1.6 to 1.9 equivalents, of an acid in situ to obtain the corresponding acid addition salt. In one particularly preferred embodiment of the invention the active substance is reacted with 1.75 equivalents of acid.

[0198] In this way, even highly concentrated solutions can be produced, but their use by the nasal route is restricted by the fact that their viscosity which increases with the concentration makes it difficult if not impossible to produce a fine spray mist with a suitable spray geometry (“plume”) or with a suitable particle size. Suitable inorganic and organic physiologically acceptable acids are for example hydrochloric acid, phosphoric acid, methanesulphonic acid, acetic acid, formic acid or succinic acid.

[0199] Surprisingly it has been found that the molar ratio of active substance base to solubilising acid affects the miscibility of the weakly acidic active substance solution with physiological body fluids such as plasma or nasal mucus, so that the active substance remains in solution in the physiological, neutral pH range longer or in a higher concentration the higher the molar excess of solubilising acid. A longer delay time of the active substance in dissolved form on the nasal mucosa should therefore lead to a higher absorption rate and higher systemic availability.

[0200] Another pharmaceutical composition according to the invention may therefore also contain a physiologically acceptable salt of the abovementioned active substances of group (A) to (CJ) in an aqueous solution of the concentrations specified above, to which 0.2 to 1 equivalents, preferably 0.6 to 0.9 equivalents, of the corresponding acid are added. A particularly preferred embodiment contains hydrochloric acid as the solubilising acid in an excess of 0.75 molar equivalents based on the active substance base used.

[0201] Another embodiment according to the invention of a pharmaceutical composition for nasal administration additionally contains one or more “absorption enhancers” such as e.g. caprylocaproyl-macrogolglyceride (Labrasol™) or lysolecithin in a concentration of 0.1% to 5% w/v, preferably in the range from 0.5% to 3% w/v. This absorption enhancer increases the permeability of the mucosa, eventually resulting in a higher systemic availability of the active substance.

[0202] Another embodiment according to the invention of a pharmaceutical composition for nasal administration additionally contains a gel-forming agent such as e.g. hydroxypropylmethyl-cellulose, polymers of acrylic acid (e.g. Carbopol 934) or xanthan in a concentration of 0.05% to 1% w/v, preferably in the range from 0.1% to 0.5% w/v. This increases the viscosity and hence the retention time of the nasally administered preparation by modifying the “clearing mechanism” of the nasal mucosa.

[0203] Another embodiment of the nasal preparation additionally contains a liposome-forming phospholipid, e.g. soya lecithin S 100, in a concentration of 2% to 10% w/v, preferably in the range from 3% to 8% w/v, optionally additionally containing a small amount of a phospholipid-hydrolysis product, e.g. lysolecithin, in a concentration of 0.5% to 1% w/v. The liposome-based formulation has a higher permeation rate through the mucosa and therefore the active substance has a high systemic availability.

[0204] Moreover, one or more isotonic agents may optionally be added to the abovementioned embodiments according to the invention, for example sodium chloride in concentrations of 0.3% to 3% w/v, mannitol in concentrations of 1.5% to 15% w/v, lactose in concentrations of 3% to 20% w/v or xylitol in concentrations of 1.5% to 15% w/v.

[0205] The preparations according to the invention are preferably packaged and administered as single doses which means that preservation, recognised as disadvantageous, can be dispensed with. Moreover, this does not provoke any decomposition of the oxygen-sensitive preparation and avoids the need to specify a relatively short shelf life. In addition, the condition of migraine does not require regular or long-term use which would justify packaging the substance in a multi-dose container; rather, the pharmaceutical composition is used only in (acute) cases of need. The patient can take the drug at any time, depending on the individual nature of the migraine, e.g. the frequency, trigger factors, etc, and his/her individual custom, using a single dose preparation a number of which may be kept handy “for emergencies” in pockets, handbags, in the car, etc. Suitable primary packaging agents include, for example, a commercially available, tried and tested single dose system produced by Messrs Pfeiffer, Radolfzell (UDS=unit dose system).

[0206] The marked susceptibility of the active substance solution to oxygen imposes special requirements on the manufacture and packaging. The addition of antioxidants such as sodium metabisulphite or propyl gallate etc. should be avoided for reasons of tolerance, e.g. to avoid allergic reactions. Instead, during manufacture, the solution may be subjected to submersion or surface-gassing with a protective gas, e.g. nitrogen or argon or a combination thereof. Similarly, during packaging, the primary container may subjected to pre- and post-gassing. With regard to the possibility of producing large numbers of items, it is possible to use equipment similar to that used for conventional ampoule filling, while particular importance is attached to efficient protective gassing with one of the abovementioned inert gases and to the quality and positioning of the closure of the primary container, e.g. a rubber stopper, to bring the residual oxygen content in the primary container down to levels below 1%, preferably below 0.5%.

[0207] As has been shown in real-time storage experiments, even the measures described above are still not sufficient to protect the product long-term against oxidation over its entire shelf-life.

[0208] Thus, in another aspect, the present invention relates to the identification of a secondary packaging which provides this long-term protection. Suitable packages are bag or tubular bag packages made of aluminium or metallised films, if filled with the primary packaging means (e.g. UDS) under a protective gas atmosphere and heat-sealed. Another alternative is packaging in transparent films provided that sufficient long-term protection can be achieved with transparent films by the inclusion of oxygen absorbers (e.g. those which contain powdered elementary iron or iron oxide which absorbs oxygen, forming iron oxide at various stages of oxidation of the iron).

[0209] A second object of the invention is a process for preparing one of the pharmaceutical compositions mentioned above, comprising the steps of

[0210] (a) dissolving 2 to 25% w/v, based on the pharmaceutical composition, of an active substance selected from the group (A) to (CJ) in an aqueous solution, comprising at least one equivalent of a physiologically acceptable solubilising acid or

[0211] (b) dissolving a salt of an active substance selected from the group (A) to (CJ), formed with a physiologically acceptable solubilising acid, in water in an amount such that the active substance content of the composition based on the active substance is 2% to 25% w/v, and optionally

[0212] (c) adding excess physiologically acceptable solubilising acid and

[0213] (d) optionally adding one or more excipients, selected from absorption enhancers, gel-forming agents and liposome-forming phospholipids as well as

[0214] (e) optionally packaging the resulting solution under protective gas as single doses in primary packaging means, the primary packaging means being placed in a secondary package in the form of a bag or tubular bag packaging made of aluminium, metallised film or transparent film, under a protective gas atmosphere, optionally together with an oxygen absorber.
