Definitions
- the present invention relates to improved pharmaceutical compositions and in particular to a formulation for oral administration comprising a therapeutically effective quantity of a non- ergoline dopamine agonist, such as Ropinirole or pharmaceutical acceptable salt thereof, in combination with amino acids, such as Methionine, as an antioxidant and a process for the preparation thereof for the treatment of Parkinson's disease and Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS).
- a non- ergoline dopamine agonist such as Ropinirole or pharmaceutical acceptable salt thereof
- amino acids such as Methionine
- Ropinirole is a known non-ergoline dopamine agonist, a selective D2-agonist, employed for the treatment of Parkinson's disease with much less undesirable side effects than other dopaminergic agents.
- Ropinirole is a potent CNS active non-ergoline dopamine agonist with high relative in vitro specificity and full intrinsic activity at the D 2 and D 3 dopamine receptor subtypes, binding with a higher affinity to D 3 than to D 2 receptor subtypes. Additionally, Ropinirole presents a moderate affinity for opioid receptors and a negligible in vitro affinity for 5-HT 1 , 5-HT 2 , Dopamine D 1 , benzodiazepine, GABA, muscarinic, alpha ! , alpha 2 and beta adrenoceptors.
- Ropinirole used in the dosage form is in the form of the crystalline hydrochloride salt (4- (2-di-n- propylaminoethyl)-2 (3H)-indolone hydrochloride), which has been pharmaceutically approved for human use.
- Ropinirole hydrochloride is a white to pale greenish-yellow powder with a melting range of 243° to 250° and a solubility of 133mg/ml in water. It is also soluble in methanol, slightly soluble in ethanol and very slightly soluble in acetonitrile.
- Ropinirole is known to be susceptible to degradation upon exposure to moisture and elevated temperatures. Additionally, it tends to interact with other tablet ingredients when exposed to stress conditions and decomposes. The degradation of the active ingredient results in reduced drug effectiveness and treatment failure.
- the susceptibility to decomposition can be controlled by handling the compound and storing the final dosage form in a controlled environment, so as to preserve the therapeutic potency of the active pharmaceutical ingredient.
- the stability of pharmaceutical compositions containing a non-ergoline dopamine agonist and in particular, Ropinirole or pharmaceutical acceptable salt thereof can also be influenced by the selection of the excipients.
- the bioavailability and the release rate of the pharmaceutical dosage can also be enhanced by the selection of the excipients.
- certain stabilizing agents have been incorporated into pharmaceutical compositions containing Ropinirole.
- the amount of the stabilizing agent to be used in a particular formulation depends upon the dosage form itself, the size of the dosage form and the amount of active ingredient (strength) present in the dosage form.
- the pharmaceutical formulations of Ropinirole or salt thereof stabilized to oxidation are preferably formulations for oral administration. Such formulations include solid or liquid dosage forms such as for example tablets, capsules, powders and suspensions, including any sustained release preparations thereof.
- EP 0 314 387 discloses a pharmaceutical composition which comprises a dopamine agonist, such as pergolide, which is susceptible to decomposition by light, and an amount of a stabilizing agent, such as PVP, a-tocopherol succinate and propyl gallate.
- the active ingredient and the stabilizing agent are comprised in an amount sufficient to achieve stabilization against degradation by light.

- Another aspect of the present invention is to provide a solid dosage formulation for oral administration containing a non-ergoline dopamine agonist and in particular, Ropinirole or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as an active ingredient, with low concentration of the active ingredient, which is bioavailable and effective with sufficient self-life and good pharmacotechnical properties.
- another aspect of the present invention is to provide a solid dosage formulation for oral administration containing a non-ergoline dopamine agonist, and in particular, Ropinirole or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as an active ingredient, which can be prepared in dosage forms of different strength by proportionally adjusting the quantities of the excipients and the active ingredient, thereby providing a pharmacotechnical linearity, without affecting the dissolution profile and bioavailability of the active ingredient.
- a further aspect of the present invention is to provide a method for the preparation of a stable solid dosage formulation for oral administration containing a non-ergoline dopamine agonist, and in particular, Ropinirole or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as an active ingredient, thereby avoiding the decomposition of said active ingredient and improving the pharmacotechnical characteristics of said composition.
- a pharmaceutical composition for oral administration comprising a non-ergoline dopamine agonist, such a Ropinirole or pharmaceutical acceptable salt thereof as an active ingredient, and an effective amount of an amino acid such as Methionine as an antioxidant to inhibit oxidation and/or degradation.
- a non-ergoline dopamine agonist such as Ropinirole or pharmaceutical acceptable salt thereof as an active ingredient
- an amino acid such as Methionine
- the sieved mixture Adding to the sieved mixture the total quantities of at least one optional excipient of the internal phase such as a binder, a diluent, a disintegrant and mixing until uniform,
- At least one optional excipient of the external phase such as glidant, a lubricant and mixing
- a pharmaceutical composition comprising a non- ergoline dopamine agonist (e.g. Ropinirole or pharmaceutical acceptable salt thereof) is considered to be “stable” if said ingredient degradates less or more slowly than it does on its own and/or in known pharmaceutical compositions.
- a non- ergoline dopamine agonist e.g. Ropinirole or pharmaceutical acceptable salt thereof
- excipient is considered to be "incompatible" with an active ingredient (non-ergoline dopamine agonist e.g. Ropinirole or salt thereof) if it promotes the degradation of said active ingredient, that is to say, if said active ingredient degrades more or faster in the presence of said excipient when compared with the degradation of said active ingredient on its own.
- active ingredient non-ergoline dopamine agonist e.g. Ropinirole or salt thereof
- pharmaceutically acceptable refers to a form that is acceptable to the patient from a pharmacological or toxicological point of view, including acceptable composition, formulation, stability, bioavailability and acceptance by the patient.
- the pharmaceutical composition may be in various forms, the preferred solid forms are tablets, capsules and caplets.
- the improved solid pharmaceutical composition of the present invention is characterized by physicochemical properties suitable for the tablet formulation by direct compression, the adequate release rate of the active ingredient (non-ergoline dopamine agonist e.g. Ropinirole or salt thereof) and the storage stability, by employing excipients practically devoiding the tendency to interact with the active ingredient, and possessing good compressibility properties.
- the active ingredient non-ergoline dopamine agonist e.g. Ropinirole or salt thereof
- the storage stability by employing excipients practically devoiding the tendency to interact with the active ingredient, and possessing good compressibility properties.
- non-ergoline dopamine agonist such as Ropinirole is susceptible to degradation / oxidation upon exposure to moisture and heat and its tendency gets stronger when formulated and mixed with excipients or other active substances

- Example 1 Tablet of 0.25 mg Ropinirole (Comp. 1)
- Tablets of the above formulation were prepared according to the following manufacturing process: Ropinirole HCL, Microcrystalline cellulose, Microcellac and Croscarmellose sodium were admixed to complete homogeneity. The above mixture was passed through a sieve. The sieved mixture was then mixed with colloidal silicon dioxide. Finally magnesium stearate was added and mixed until complete homogeneity. The resulting granule was compressed into tablets.
- the produced tablets were tested for hardness, friability, disintegration, and water content. All tests were performed according to European Pharmacopoeia 5.1 and were well within the specifications. However, the stability results were not satisfactory.
- Tablets of the above composition 2 were prepared according to the following manufacturing process: Ropinirole HCL and DL-Methionine were mixed together for sufficient time and then Microcrystalline cellulose, Microcellac and Croscarmellose sodium were added and mixed. Subsequently, Colloid silicon dioxide was added and mixed. Finally magnesium stearate was added and mixed until complete homogeneity. The resulting granule was compressed into tablets.
- composition 2 The stability results of composition 2 were acceptable and much more improved than of composition 1.
- Example 3 Tablet of 0.25 mg Ropinirole (Comp. 3)
- compositions of the above composition 3 were prepared according to the manufacturing process of composition 2.
- compositions 3 comprising a ratio of Ropinirole hydrochloride to DL-methionine 2:5 and
- Example 4 Tablet of 0.25 mg Ropinirole (Comp. 4 * )
- Microcellac 100 is sieved.
- step 6 The mixture of step 6 is added to the mixture of step 5 for adequate time till suitable content uniformity is achieved.
- dissolution test One of the most critical pharmacotechnical tests is the dissolution test as it is strongly correlated with the bioavailability of the product.
- a Paddle Apparatus 50rpm, 37 0 C, time 30min, while as a dissolution medium 900ml of H 2 O was used.
- the dissolution profile of the composition 4 showed a faster release profile and disintegration time. Also, the release at 30 minutes is over 95% compared to 92% of composition 2, showing that better homogeneity of these tablets.
- Composition 4 showed improved pharmacotechnical characteristics such as lower disintegration time, increased release of the active ingredient release in the dissolution test and improved uniformity of the low content of the active ingredient.
- composition 4 was investigated for its scalability, while a process validation was performed in order to prove the repeatability and accuracy of the manufacturing process and the proposed formulations. All the above mentioned characteristics were also investigated for formulations of 0,25mg, 0,5mg, lmg, 2mg and 5mg strength equivalent weight of Ropinirole per tablet and 3 batches per strength were used.
- composition 4 and the manufacturing process are suitable in order to provide a repeatable and high quality product.
- Another object of the present invention was to prepare a pharmaceutical composition that is stable and the active ingredient does not degradates for a long period of storage time. Therefore, tablets of composition 4, three batches of each strength, were packed in blisters and exposed to normal (25°C ⁇ 2°C/60% ⁇ 5% RH), intermediate (30°C ⁇ 2°C/65% ⁇ 5% RH) and accelerated (40°C ⁇ 2°C/75% ⁇ 5% RH) stability studies according to the current ICH guidelines. The stability results under normal conditions for the five different strengths are shown in Table 2 below (one batch each strength).
- the results show a good stability of the product and compatibility between the drug substance and the excipients proposed by the present invention.
- the excellent results regarding the physicochemical characteristics, the excellent stability of the product as well as the simple and economic manufacturing process indicate the advantages of the present invention relative to the commonly used methods and excipients for the formulation of Ropinirole.
