Description

A PHARMACEUTICAL FORMULATION COMPRISING LINAGLIPTIN, METFORMIN AND A SGLT-2
INHIBITOR
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical formulation comprising linagliptin or salts thereof, metformin or salts thereof and a SGLT-2 inhibitor.
Background of the Invention
Diabetes mellitus is a group of disorders of carbohydrate metabolism in which the action of insulin is diminished or absent through altered secretion, decreased insulin activity or a combination of both factors.
Linagliptin is used for type 2 or non-insulin dependent diabetes. It is a selective, orally administered, xanthine based dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor used as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control. DPP-4 inhibitors work by blocking the action of DPP-4, an enzyme which destroys the hormone incretin. There are two types of incretin hormones found in the body, called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP). These hormones are naturally produced by the body in response to food intake. Their function is to help the body produce more insulin only when it is needed and reduce the amount of glucose being produced by the liver when it is not needed. Linagliptin works by binding to DPP-4 and preventing it from breaking down the GLP-1 and GIP. This increases the levels of these hormones in the body and so increases their effect on controlling blood sugar.
The chemical name of linagliptin is 8-[(3R)-3-aminopiperidin-l-yl]-7-but-2-yn-l-yl)-3-methyl-l-[(4- methylquinazolin-2-yl)methyl]-3,7-dihydro-lH-purine-2, 6-dione and its chemical structure is shown in the Formula I.
Figure imgf000002_0001
Formula I Metformin is antidiabetics having an orally-administrated biguanide structure. Metformin hydrochloride is a white to off-white crystalline compound and it is freely soluble in water and practically insoluble in acetone, ether and chloroform. Oral doses of metformin are generally recommended in the range of 500 to 2500 mg a day and a single dose may vary from 500 to 850 mg. It is used singly or in combination with sulfonylureas, alpha-glucosidase inhibitors, or insulin.
The chemical name of metformin hydrochloride is 1,1-dimethylbiguanide hydrochloride, has the following chemical structure of Formula II.
Figure imgf000003_0001
Formula II
A combination therapy of linagliptin with metformin HCI provides an even more effective treatment of type II diabetes. Linagliptin in combination with Metformin is marketed in the United States under the brand name Jentadueto’ by Boehringer Ingelheim.
It is known for treating a type 2 diabetes in a mammalian patient who has previously been treated with one or more oral anti-diabetic agents and/or one or more injectable anti-diabetic agents (e.g., insulin). Sometimes these are considered insufficient.
Limited improvement in glycemic control is observed with long-term treatment. In addition, even in patients within the intensive treatment glycemic control can deteriorated significantly over time by deterioration of -cell function.
The SGLT2 inhibitor is a class of medications that modulate sodium-glucose transport proteins in the nephron and is used in the treatment of type II diabetes mellitus. Apart from blood sugar control, gliflozins have been shown to provide significant cardiovascular benefits in patients with type II diabetes. SGLT2 inhibitor is administered at a dose from about 0.5 to about 200 mg/day, and insulin or other oral anti-diabetic agents are also administered at a dose as prescribed by a doctor.
Therefore, there is thus still a need for methods, medicaments and pharmaceutical combinations with a good efficacy with regard to glycemic control, with regard to disease-modifying properties and with regard to reduction of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality while at the same time showing an improved safety profile. In this invention, combining more than two molecules in one dosage form increases the patient's compliance. The combination brings additional advantages to the relevant prior art. The term "combination" means that when drugs are administered together, a combined action is obtained which is higher than the individual actions of the respective drugs when they are used separately. On the other hand, using a lower dose of each drug to be combined according to the present invention will reduce the total dosage. These are advantageous in terms of patients to be treated.
