Description

COMPOSITION COMPRISING TETRAHYDROCANNABINOL AND ACETAZOLAMIDE IN A FIXED DOSE COMBINATION CAPSULE Related application [0001] This application claims priority from Australian Provisional Patent Application No.2023903778 filed on 23 November 2023, the entire content of which is incorporated by reference. Field [0002] The present disclosure relates generally to compositions comprising a synergistic combination of Δ-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or derivative thereof and acetazolamide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, which beneficially enables simultaneous administration of the two active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) in a single dosage form. In an embodiment, the present disclosure also relates to methods and uses of the composition for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). Background [0003] Fixed-dose combination (FDC) pharmaceutical products comprising multiple active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) are often difficult to formulate where active ingredients are incompatible, that is, the APIs deleteriously react with one another when combined in desired levels of concentrations. FDCs also require significant product formulation and manufacturing optimisation to address stability, dose differential and physical and chemical compatibility. [0004] In the context of FDCs comprising Δ-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), these limitations can become more onerous due to issues with bioavailability, variable pharmacokinetic profiles, possible polymorphisms and a higher risk of drug-drug interactions (DDIs) associated with THC. However, recent studies have shown that THC can synergize with other APIs for the treatment of a range of different conditions, including obstructive sleep apnoea (e.g., WO 2022/006636) and pain (e.g., Cichewicz et al., 2003, The Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics, 304(3): 1010-1015). [0005] In most cases, synergism between THC and one or more additional APIs occurs where the two or more APIs are delivered to a subject simultaneously. Using standard methods in the art, it would be expected that the formulation and development of any such single dosage forms or FDCs would require extensive consideration of the physical characteristics of the APIs, the mode of delivery, the flow properties of the composition, the excipient compatibility, the uniformity in production and the release profile to ensure that the pharmacokinetic properties of the APIs are maintained (or enhanced) and/or impart stability to the composition such that it can have an acceptable shelf life. [0006] Therefore, there remains an urgent need for the development of pharmaceutical compositions that enable the simultaneous delivery of THC and one or more additional APIs in a single dosage form (e.g., FDC) regardless of physical-chemical compatibility and/or stability liabilities. Summary [0007] In an aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a composition comprising: a. Δ-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or derivative thereof; and b. a solid dosage form of acetazolamide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein the THC or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or derivative thereof is encapsulated by a first capsule and the solid dosage form of acetazolamide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is encapsulated by a second capsule, wherein the second capsule is at least partially encapsulated by the first capsule. Brief Description of the Drawings [0008] Various examples and embodiments of the invention are described herein, by way of non-limiting example only, with reference to the following figures. [0009] Figure 1 is a schematic representation of the composition comprising a first capsule and a second capsule, in which the second capsule comprises a tablet solid dosage form of acetazolamide and is encapsulated by the first capsule. [0010] Figure 2 is a schematic representation of the composition comprising a first capsule and a second capsule, in which the second capsule comprises a particulate solid dosage form of acetazolamide (e.g., a powder, a microgranule, a nanoparticle). [0011] Figure 3 shows that THC and acetazolamide are bioavailable following oral administration of soft gel capsule fixed dose combination product comprising 250 mg acetazolamide and 5 mg THC. (A) A graphical representation of acetazolamide concentration (ng/mL; y-axis) and time (hours; x-axis). (B) A graphical representation of THC concentration (ng/mL; y-axis) and time (hours; x-axis). Detailed Description [0012] Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the art to which the disclosure belongs. Any materials and method similar or equivalent to those described herein can be used to practice the present invention. [0013] Throughout this specification, unless the context requires otherwise, the word “comprise”, or variations such as “comprises” or “comprising”, will be understood to imply the inclusion of the stated element or integer or group of elements or integers but not the exclusion of any other element or integer or group of elements or integers. [0014] The phrase "consisting of" means including, and limited to, whatever follows the phrase "consisting of". Thus, the phrase "consisting of" indicates that the listed elements are required or mandatory, and that no other elements may be present. The phrase "consisting essentially of" means including any elements listed after the phrase, and limited to other elements that do not interfere with or contribute to the activity or action specified in the disclosure for the listed elements. Thus, the phrase "consisting essentially of" indicates that the listed elements are required or mandatory, but that other elements are optional and may or may not be present depending upon whether or not they affect the activity or action of the listed elements. [0015] As used herein the singular forms "a", "an" and "the" include plural aspects unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. Thus, for example, reference to "a composition" includes a single composition, as well as two or more compositions; reference to "an agent" includes one agent, as well as two or more agents; and so forth. [0016] The term “about” will be understood by persons skilled in the art and will vary to some extent depending on the context in which it is used. If there are uses of the term that are not clear to persons skilled in the art, given the context which it is used, “about” will mean up to plus or minus 10% of the particular term. [0017] The present disclosure is predicated, at least in part, on the inventor’s surprising finding that a single dose form of Δ-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or derivative thereof and acetazolamide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof can be formulated by encapsulating the THC or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or derivative thereof in a first capsule and encapsulating the acetazolamide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in a second capsule, wherein the second capsule is at least partially encapsulated by the first capsule, thereby enabling the simultaneous administration of the synergistic combination of THC and acetazolamide. [0018] Thus, in an aspect disclosed herein, there is provided a composition comprising: a. THC or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or derivative thereof; and b. a solid dosage form of acetazolamide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein the THC or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or derivative thereof is encapsulated by a first capsule and the solid dosage form of acetazolamide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is encapsulated by a second capsule, wherein the second capsule is at least partially encapsulated by the first capsule. Compositions [0019] In accordance with the present disclosure, the composition allows for the delivery of two synergistic active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) that have not previously been combined in a single dosage form. The composition described herein advantageously avoids any problems associated with the incompatibility of APIs, which may limit the ability to formulate the combination into a single dosage form or fixed dose combination (FDC). [0020] The phrase "fixed dose combination" or "FDC" as used herein refers to a combination of two or more APIs contained in a single dosage form, such as a capsule or tablet. Accordingly, the composition described herein may also be referred to as an FDC. [0021] The configuration of the composition described herein, that is, THC or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or derivative thereof encapsulated in by a first capsule, and a solid dosage form of acetazolamide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof encapsulated in a second capsule, wherein the second capsule is at least partially encapsulated by the first capsule provides a physical barrier between the two APIs. As described elsewhere herein, the physical separation of the two APIs avoids any problems with incompatibility between the THC and acetazolamide, which may limit the ability to provide a synergistic FDC. [0022] Encapsulation may be achieved using any film-forming material known in the art, illustrative examples of which include gelatin, starch, carrageenans, gums or synthetic materials such as hydroxypropyl-methylcellulose (HPMC), other hydroxyalkylated celluloses and the like. The film-forming material typically has an aqueous base and is ingestible. As used herein the term "ingestible" refers to a film-forming material that dissolves under conditions simulating the human digestive tract or water. [0023] In an embodiment, the first capsule may comprise, consist of or substantially consist of animal or non-animal based material. Suitable non-animal material for capsules would be known to persons skilled in the art, illustrative examples of which include starch, carrageenans, gums or synthetic materials such as hydroxalkylated celluloses (e.g., hydroxypropyl methylcellulose) and polymers (e.g., synthetic polymers). Suitable animal materials for capsules would be known to persons skilled in the art, illustrative examples of which include hard gelatin capsules and soft gelatin capsules. [0024] In an embodiment, the first capsule is a soft gelatin capsule. [0025] Soft gelatin capsules or "softgels" generally comprise an outer shell primarily made of gelatin, a plasticizer, and water. Soft gelatin capsules are widely used in the pharmaceutical industry for oral administration or as suppositories for rectal or vaginal use. Other uses are topical and ophthalmic preparations and the like, e.g., the cosmetic industry use soft gelatin capsules as a specialized package for various types of perfumes, oils, shampoo, skin creams and the like. Soft gelatin capsules are available in a variety of sizes and shapes, e.g., tubes, ovals, oblongs, tubes and other special types of shapes such as stars. The finished soft gelatin capsules can be made in a variety of colors and opacifiers may be added to the soft gelatin capsules. [0026] Processes for the manufacture of soft gelatin capsules and encapsulation of APIs within soft gelatin capsules would be known to persons skilled in the art, illustrative examples of which include the methods described in US Patent Nos.9,433,584, 10,383,826 and WO 2012/017325. [0027] In an embodiment, the soft gelatin capsule comprises a gelatin selected from the group consisting of bovine gelatin, porcine gelatin, fish gelatin and blends thereof. [0028] It is also contemplated herein that the soft gelatin capsule may comprise one or more of starch, carrageenans, gums or synthetic materials such as hydroxalkylated celluloses. [0029] In an embodiment, the THC or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or derivative thereof is solubilized in a liquid solvent. Suitable liquid solvents would be known to persons skilled in the art, illustrative examples of which include oils, alcohol (e.g., ethanol), propylene glycol and glycerol. [0030] In an embodiment, the liquid solvent is an oil selected from the group consisting of hemp seed oil, olive oil, caprylic/capric triglyceride (MCT) oil, sunflower oil and sesame seed oil. [0031] In a preferred embodiment, the oil is sesame seed oil. [0032] In an embodiment, the liquid solvent further comprises one or more agents selected from the group of sweetening agents, flavoring agents, coloring agents and preserving agents. Suitable sweeteners include sucrose, lactose, glucose, aspartame or saccharin. Suitable flavoring agents include peppermint oil, oil of wintergreen, cherry, orange or raspberry flavoring. Suitable preservatives include sodium benzoate, vitamin E, alphatocopherol, ascorbic acid, methyl paraben, propyl paraben, sodium bisulphite or butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT). [0033] As described elsewhere herein, the composition beneficially separates one API (i.e., THC) from the second API (i.e., acetazolamide) by virtue of the second capsule that encapsulates the second API. In an embodiment, and without being bound by a particular theory, the separation of the first API and the second API is achieved based on the encapsulation of the second API using a material that is not solubilized by the liquid solvent in which the THC or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or derivative thereof has been solubilized in. For example, the THC or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or derivative thereof may be formulated at a pH range that prevents the second capsule from being solubilized. [0034] Accordingly, in an embodiment, the second capsule is a capsule that is not solubilized by the liquid solvent. [0035] The second capsule may comprise, consist of or substantially consist of animal or non-animal based material as described elsewhere herein. [0036] In an embodiment, the second capsule is selected from the group consisting of a polymer capsule, a soft gelatin capsule, and a cellulose capsule. [0037] In an embodiment, the second capsule is a soft gelatin capsule. [0038] In another embodiment, the second capsule is a polymer capsule. [0039] Suitable polymer capsules would be known to persons skilled in the art, illustrative examples of which include capsules comprising polyvinyl alcohol, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose phthalate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate, cellulose polymer, polyvinyl acetate, cellulose acetate phthalate, cellulose acetate trimellitate and polyvinyl acetate phthalate. In an embodiment, the polymer capsule comprises polyvinyl alcohol (e.g., Opadry® 200). [0040] In some embodiments, the first capsule and the second capsule are the same material, e.g., soft gelatin capsules. In another embodiment, the first capsule and the second capsule are different materials, e.g., a soft gelatin first capsule and a polymer second capsule. [0041] In another embodiment, the second capsule is an enteric capsule. [0042] The term "enteric" as used herein means a coating material to provide slow, modified or controlled release of the solid dosage form of hydroxychloroquine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The enteric capsule may also be used to prevent dissolution of the solid dosage form of hydroxychloroquine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in the gastric environment. [0043] In an embodiment, the second capsule further comprises a coating. Suitable coatings would be known to persons skilled in the art, illustrative examples of which include sealants, glazes, polishes and shellac. The coatings contemplated herein provide an additional functional barrier to moisture and far. In an embodiment, the coating is a clear coating comprising sodium carboxymethylcellulose, maltodexrin, dextrose monohydrate and purified stearic acid (i.e., Opaglos® 2). [0044] The phrase "solid dosage form" as used herein refers to any solid form of acetazolamide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, such as tablets, caplets, granules, nanoparticles, pellets and the like. Accordingly, in an embodiment, the solid dosage form is selected from the group consisting of a tablet, a powder, a microgranule, a nanoparticle and a pellet. [0045] In a preferred embodiment, the solid dosage form is a tablet. [0046] The phrase "at least partially encapsulated" refers to the complete or partial encapsulation of the solid dosage form of the acetazolamide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof by the first capsule. Suitable configurations of the first capsule and the second capsule would be determined by persons skilled in the art by reference to, e.g., the manufacturing process, encapsulation materials and the formulation of the THC and solid dosage form of the acetazolamide. [0047] In an embodiment, the second capsule is completely incorporated within the first capsule. For example, the second capsule may be completely incorporated in accordance with the schematic representation of the composition shown in Figures 1 and 2. [0048] In a preferred embodiment, the composition is formulated for oral administration. [0049] Compositions for oral administration may contain one or more agents selected from the group of sweetening agents, flavoring agents, coloring agents and preserving agents in order to produce pharmaceutically elegant and palatable preparations. Suitable sweeteners include sucrose, lactose, glucose, aspartame or saccharin. Suitable disintegrating agents include corn starch, methylcellulose, polyvinylpyrrolidone, xanthan gum, bentonite, alginic acid or agar. Suitable flavoring agents include peppermint oil, oil of wintergreen, cherry, orange or raspberry flavoring. Suitable preservatives include sodium benzoate, vitamin E, alphatocopherol, ascorbic acid, methyl paraben, propyl paraben or sodium bisulphite. Suitable lubricants include magnesium stearate, stearic acid, sodium oleate, sodium chloride or talc. Suitable time delay agents include glyceryl monostearate or glyceryl distearate. [0050] In an embodiment, the composition further comprises one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, diluents or excipients. [0051] Suitable pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, diluents or excipients would be known to persons skilled in the art, illustrative examples of which include inert diluents (e.g., calcium carbonate, lactose, calcium phosphate or sodium phosphate), granulating and disintegrating agents (e.g., corn starch or alginic acid), binding agents (e.g., starch, gelatin or acacia), lubricating agents (e.g., magnesium stearate, stearic acid or talc) and material to delay disintegration and absorption in the gastrointestinal tract and thereby provide a sustained action over a longer period (e.g., glyceryl monostearate or glyceryl distearate). [0052] Compositions disclosed herein may be prepared according to conventional methods well known in the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries, such as those described in Remington’s Pharmaceutical Handbook (Mack Publishing Co., NY, USA). [0053] Oral administration of THC has been demonstrated to be an efficacious administration route (Goodwin et al., 2006, Therapeutic Drug Monitoring, 28(4): 545-551). Similarly, oral administration of carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, such as acetazolamide, have also been demonstrated to be effective for absorption and bioavailability (Wallace et al., 1977, Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 66(4): 527-530). Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) [0054] "Δ-9-tetrahydrocannabinolic acid" or "THCA" is synthesized in cannabis plants from the cannabigerolic acid (CBGA) precursor by THCA synthase (Table 2). THCA decarboxylates to the neutral form "Δ-9-tetrahydrocannabinol" or “THC”, which is associated with psychoactive effects of cannabis as primarily mediated by its activation of CB1G-protein coupled receptors, which result in a decrease in the concentration of cyclic AMP (cAMP) through the inhibition of adenylate cyclase. THC also exhibits partial agonist activity at the cannabinoid receptors CB1 and CB2. CB1 is mainly associated with the central nervous system, while CB2 is expressed predominantly in the cells of the immune system. As a result, THC is also associated with pain relief, relaxation, fatigue, appetite stimulation, and alteration of the visual, auditory and olfactory senses. Furthermore, more recent studies have indicated that THC mediates an anti-cholinesterase action, which may suggest its use for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease and myasthenia (Eubanks et al., 2006, Molecular Pharmaceuticals, 3(6): 773-7). [0055] THC may be extracted from any suitable plant parts including leaves, flowers or stems and may be produced by any suitable means known to those skilled in the art. For example, THC extracts may be produced by extraction with supercritical or subcritical CO2, or by volatilization of plant material with a heated gas. Illustrative examples of methods used the extract THC and other cannabinoids from plant material include the methods described in US Patent No.10189762 and WO 2004/016277. [0056] In an embodiment, the THC described herein is synthetic THC (i.e., man-made THC). In a preferred embodiment, the THC is dronabinol. [0057] Dronabinol is commercially available in capsule form under the trade name Marinol from Alkem and one or more manufacturers, distributors, and/or repackaged under a generic (i.e., non-proprietary) name. Dronabinol is also commercially available in liquid form under the trade name Syndros from Benuvia. [0058] Synthetic THC is particularly useful for pharmaceutical development as it can be prepared largely free from contaminants. A number of methods for the synthesis of THC are known in the art, illustrative examples of which include methods for the synthesis of dronabinol as described in US Patent Nos.7323576 and 5227537, and US Patent Application No.11/840,585. [0059] The present disclosure further contemplates the use of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of THC. Suitable pharmaceutically acceptable salts of THC would be known to persons skilled in the art, illustrative examples of which include salts or esters prepared from pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic bases or acids, including inorganic bases or acids and organic bases or acids, which would be known to persons skilled in the art. [0060] In an embodiment, the composition comprises at least about 0.25 mg THC or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or derivative thereof (e.g., 0.25 mg, 0.50 mg, 0.75 mg, 1 mg, 1.25 mg, 1.50 mg, 1.75 mg, 2 mg, 2.25 mg, 2.50 mg, 2.75 mg, 3 mg, 3.25 mg, 3.50 mg, 3.75 mg, 4 mg, 4.25 mg, 4.50 mg, 4.75 mg, 5 mg, 5.25 mg, 5.50 mg, 5.75 mg, 6 mg, 6.25 mg, 6.50 mg, 6.75 mg, 7 mg, 7.25 mg, 7.50 mg, 7.75 mg, 8 mg, 8.25 mg, 8.50 mg, 8.75 mg, 9 mg, 9.25 mg, 9.50 mg, 9.75 mg, 10 mg, 10.25 mg, 10.50 mg, 10.75 mg, 11 mg, 11.25 mg, 11.50 mg, 11.75 mg, 12 mg, 12.25 mg, 12.50 mg, 12.75 mg, 13 mg, 13.25 mg, 13.50 mg, 13.75 mg, 14 mg, 14.25 mg, 14.50 mg, 14.75 mg, 15 mg, 15.25 mg, 15.50 mg, 15.75 mg, 16 mg, 16.25 mg, 16.50 mg, 16.75 mg, 17 mg, 17.25 mg, 17.50 mg, 17.75 mg, 18 mg, 18.25 mg, 18.50 mg, 18.75 mg, 19 mg, 19.25 mg, 19.50 mg, 19.75 mg, or 20 mg). [0061] In an embodiment, the composition comprises from about 0.25 mg to about 20 mg THC or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or derivative thereof, preferably about 0.25 mg, preferably about 0.50 mg, preferably about 0.75 mg, preferably about 1 mg, preferably about 1.25 mg, preferably about 1.50 mg, preferably about 1.75 mg, preferably about 2 mg, preferably about 2.25 mg, preferably about 2.50 mg, preferably about 2.75 mg, preferably about 3 mg, preferably about 3.25 mg, preferably about 3.50 mg, preferably about 3.75 mg, preferably about 4 mg, preferably about 4.25 mg, preferably about 4.50 mg, preferably about 4.75 mg, preferably about 5 mg, preferably about 5.25 mg, preferably about 5.50 mg, preferably about 5.75 mg, preferably about 6 mg, preferably about 6.25 mg, preferably about 6.50 mg, preferably about 6.75 mg, preferably about 7 mg, preferably about 7.25 mg, preferably about 7.50 mg, preferably about 7.75 mg, preferably about 8 mg, preferably about 8.25 mg, preferably about 8.50 mg, preferably about 8.75 mg, preferably about 9 mg, preferably about 9.25 mg, preferably about 9.50 mg, preferably about 9.75 mg, preferably about 10 mg, preferably about 10.25 mg, preferably about 10.50 mg, preferably about 10.75 mg, preferably about 11 mg, preferably about 11.25 mg, preferably about 11.50 mg, preferably about 11.75 mg, preferably about 12 mg, preferably about 12.25 mg, preferably about 12.50 mg, preferably about 12.75 mg, preferably about 13 mg, preferably about 13.25 mg, preferably about 13.50 mg, preferably about 13.75 mg, preferably about 14 mg, preferably about 14.25 mg, preferably about 14.50 mg, preferably about 14.75 mg, preferably about 15 mg, preferably about 15.25 mg, preferably about 15.50 mg, preferably about 15.75 mg, preferably about 16 mg, preferably about 16.25 mg, preferably about 16.50 mg, preferably about 16.75 mg, preferably about 17 mg, preferably about 17.25 mg, preferably about 17.50 mg, preferably about 17.75 mg, preferably about 18 mg, preferably about 18.25 mg, preferably about 18.50 mg, preferably about 18.75 mg, preferably about 19 mg, preferably about 19.25 mg, preferably about 19.50 mg, preferably about 19.75 mg, or more preferably about 20 mg.

[0063] In an embodiment, the composition comprises about 5 mg THC or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or derivative thereof. [0064] In an embodiment, the composition comprises about 2.5 mg THC or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or derivative thereof. Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors [0065] In an aspect, the present disclosure provides a composition comprising: a. Δ-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or derivative thereof; and b. a solid dosage form of a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein the THC or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or derivative thereof is encapsulated by a first capsule and the solid dosage form of the carbonic anhydrase inhibitor or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is encapsulated by a second capsule, wherein the second capsule is at least partially encapsulated by the first capsule. [0066] As used herein, the term “carbonic anhydrase inhibitor” refers to a class of agents that inhibit the activity of carbonic anhydrase, an enzyme responsible for catalyzing the reaction between carbon dioxide and water into carbonic acid and subsequently to bicarbonate. The suppression of carbonic anhydrase activity leads to metabolic acidosis, and as a result, increases ventilation and oxygenation. Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors are used in the treatment or prevention of acute mountain sickness (i.e., altitude sickness), as described by Swenson (2014, Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitors and High Altitude Illness, in: Frost and McKenna (eds), Carbonic Anhydrase: Mechanism, Regulation, Links to Disease, and Industrial Applications. Subcellular Biochemistry, vol. 75, Springer, Dordrecht). Suitable carbonic anhydrase inhibitors will be known to persons skilled in the art, illustrative examples of which include acetazolamide, methazolamide, dorolamide and brinzolamide. [0067] The present disclosure further contemplates the use of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the carbonic anhydrase inhibitor. Suitable pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the carbonic anhydrase inhibitor would be known to person skilled in the art, illustrative examples of which include salts or esters prepared from pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic bases or acids, including inorganic bases or acids and organic bases or acids, which would be well known to person skilled in the art. [0068] In an embodiment, the carbonic anhydrase inhibitor is selected from the group consisting of acetazolamide, methazolamide, dorolamide and brinzolamide. In another embodiment, the carbonic anhydrase inhibitor is a sulfonamide, a member of thiadiazoles and a monocarboxylic acid amide, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. [0069] In an embodiment, the carbonic anhydrase inhibitor is acetazolamide. [0070] In an embodiment, the composition comprises at least about 1 mg acetazolamide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof (e.g., 1 mg, 2 mg, 3 mg, 4 mg, 5 mg, 6 mg, 7 mg, 8 mg, 9 mg, 10 mg, 11 mg, 12 mg, 13 mg, 14 mg, 15 mg, 16 mg, 17 mg, 18 mg, 19 mg, 20 mg, 21 mg, 22 mg, 23 mg, 24 mg, 25 mg, 26 mg, 27 mg, 28 mg, 29 mg, 30 mg, 31 mg, 32 mg, 33 mg, 34 mg, 35 mg, 36 mg, 37 mg, 38 mg, 39 mg, 40 mg, 41 mg, 42 mg, 43 mg, 44 mg, 45 mg, 46 mg, 47 mg, 48 mg, 49 mg, 50 mg, 51 mg, 52 mg, 53 mg, 54 mg, 55 mg, 56 mg, 57 mg, 58 mg, 59 mg, 60 mg, 61 mg, 62 mg, 63 mg, 64 mg, 65 mg, 66 mg, 67 mg, 68 mg, 69 mg, 70 mg, 71 mg, 72 mg, 73 mg, 74 mg, 75 mg, 76 mg, 77 mg, 78 mg, 79 mg, 80 mg, 81 mg, 82 mg, 83 mg, 84 mg, 85 mg, 86 mg, 87 mg, 88 mg, 89 mg, 90 mg, 91 mg, 92 mg, 93 mg, 94 mg, 95 mg, 96 mg, 97 mg, 98 mg, 99 mg, 100 mg, 101 mg, 102 mg, 103 mg, 104 mg, 105 mg, 106 mg, 107 mg, 108 mg, 109 mg, 110 mg, 111 mg, 112 mg, 113 mg, 114 mg, 115 mg, 116 mg, 117 mg, 118 mg, 119 mg, 120 mg, 121 mg,

[0072] In an embodiment, the composition comprises about 500 mg acetazolamide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. [0073] In an embodiment, the composition comprises about 250 mg acetazolamide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. [0074] In an embodiment, the composition comprises about 125 mg acetazolamide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. [0075] In an embodiment, the composition comprises about 10 mg THC or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or derivative thereof, and 500 mg acetazolamide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. [0076] In an embodiment, the composition comprises about 5 mg THC or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or derivative thereof, and 250 mg acetazolamide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. [0077] In an embodiment, the composition comprises about 2.5 mg THC or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or derivative thereof, and 125 mg acetazolamide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. [0078] In an embodiment, the composition defined herein is for use in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). Sleep apnoea [0079] The term “sleep apnoea” as used herein refers to sleep disorders characterized by episodes of interrupted breathing during sleep, which results in decreased oxygen saturation or arousal from sleep. This disturbance results in fragmented, non-restorative sleep, typically accompanied by other symptoms including loud, disruptive snoring, witnessed apnoeas during sleep and excessive daytime sleepiness. [0080] The term “apnoea” as used herein refers to a complete or near complete cessation of airflow for at least 10 seconds. [0081] The term “hypopnoea” as used herein refers to 30% or greater decrease in airflow for at least 10 seconds followed by an arousal and/or > 3% oxygen desaturation. [0082] “Obstructive sleep apnoea” or “OSA” is characterised by episodes of complete collapse of the airway or partial collapse with an associated decrease in oxygen saturation or arousal from sleep. [0083] OSA may be classified using the apnoea-hypopnoea index (AHI) or respiratory disturbance index (RDI) as described by, e.g., Iber et al. (2007, The AASM Manual for the Scoring of Sleep and Associated Events, 1^st edition), which is based on the average number of obstructive events per hour. Methods for the measurement of obstructive events would be known to persons skilled in the art, illustrative embodiments of which include overnight polysomnography (PSG). [0084] The terms “overnight polysomnography”, “overnight PSG”, “nocturnal polysomnography”, or “nocturnal PSG” may be used interchangeably herein to refer to a test used in the diagnosis of OSA. Overnight PSG consists of a simultaneous recording of multiple physiologic parameters related to sleep and wakefulness. The physiological parameters recorded during PSG would be known to persons skilled in the art, illustrative examples of which include brain activity (e.g., electroencephalogram (EEG)), eye movements (e.g., electroculogram (EOG)), muscle activity of the jaw and legs (e.g., electromyogram (EMG)), heart rhythm (electrocardiogram (ECG)), respiratory airflow (e.g., via a nasal cannula and thermistor), respiratory effort (e.g., via abdominal and thoracic respiratory bands) and peripheral pulse oximetry (e.g., via an infrared finger probe). From these parameters, OSA-related indices can be measured, including sleep onset latency, REM-sleep onset latency, the number of awakenings during the sleep period, the total sleep duration, percentages and durations of every sleep stage, number of arousals, the AHI and arterial oxygen saturation. [0085] According to the AHI, the severity of OSA may be classified as none / minimal, mild, moderate or severe (Table 1). [0086] Classification of children with OSA may be performed using modified classification thresholds, with mild OSA defined as an AHI of > 1 and < 5 if one or more of the clinical symptoms of OSA have been reported; moderate OSA defined as an AHI of ≥ 5 and < 10; and severe OSA defined as an AHI of ≥ 10. [0087] In an embodiment, the OSA is mild to severe OSA according to the AHI. In another embodiment, the OSA is moderate to severe OSA according to the AHI. [0088] The present inventors have surprisingly found that THC and acetazolamide act synergistically to reduce AHI and oxygen desaturation index (ODI) in subjects with sleep apnoea. Methods for the treatment of sleep apnoea [0089] The terms “treat”, "treating", “treatment” and the like are used interchangeably herein to mean relieving, reducing, alleviating, ameliorating or otherwise inhibiting the severity of one or more symptoms of OSA in a subject. It is to be understood that the terms “treat”, "treating", “treatment” and the like, as used herein, do not imply that a subject is treated until the OSA has been eliminated or are no longer evident. Said treatment may also reduce the severity of the one or more symptoms of OSA. [0090] The term “subject” as used herein refers to any mammal, including livestock and other farm animals (such as cattle, goats, sheep, horses, pigs and chickens), performance animals (such as racehorses), companion animals (such as cats and dogs), laboratory test animals and humans. In an embodiment, the subject is a human. [0091] It is to be understood that the composition comprises THC or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and the acetazolamide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in a dose sufficient to provide the subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount. As used herein, the term “therapeutically effective amount” typically refers to an amount of THC and an amount of acetazolamide that is sufficient to affect one or more beneficial or desired therapeutic outcomes (e.g., reduction in apnoeic episodes, reduction in hypopnoeic episodes, reduction in AHI, reduction in excessive daytime sleepiness, reduction in oxygen desaturation index (ODI), improvement in mood and well-being). Said beneficial or desired therapeutic outcomes may be quantified by measuring clinical parameters, illustrative examples of which include the measurement of arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) as described by Zamarron et al. (2003, Chest, 123(5): 1567-1576), movement of the chest and abdomen measured by inductance plethysmograph as described by Kogan et al. (2016, Respiratory Care, 61(8): 1033-1037), nasal airflow as described by de Souse Michels et al. (2014, International Journal of Otolaryngology, 2014: 717419) and heart rate spectral analysis as described by Roche et al. (2003, European Respiratory Journal, 22: 937-942). Subjective measures of sleep quality improvement can also be made using clinical instruments known in the art, illustrative examples of this include the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) (Johns, 1991, Sleep, 14: 540-545), the Leeds Sleep Evaluation Questionnaire (LSEQ) (Shahid et al., 2011, Leeds Sleep Evaluation Questionnaire (LSEQ), in Shahid et al. (eds), STOP, THAT and One Hundred Other Sleep Scales, Springer, New York), the Profile of Mood States (POMS) (McNair et al., 1971, POMS Manual for the Profile of Mood States, San Diego, CA: Educational and Industrial Testing Service), Short Form-36 (SF-36) (Saris- Baglama et al., 2010, QualityMetric Health Outcomes Scoring Software 4.0, Lincoln, RI) and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) (Buysse et al., 1989, Psychiatry Research, 28(2): 193-213). [0092] Changes in the symptoms or severity of OSA as measured by any of the quantitative methods or clinical instruments described elsewhere herein may be expressed using any appropriate statistical measure to demonstrate the magnitude of the reduction in the symptoms or severity of OSA. In an embodiment, the methods disclosed herein reduce in the symptoms or severity of OSA by at least 10%, preferably at least 20%, preferably at least 30%, preferably at least 40%, preferably at least 50%, preferably at least 60%, preferably at least 70%, preferably at least 80%, preferably at least 90%, or more preferably at least 100% as compared to a subject with OSA who has not been administered the composition disclosed herein. [0093] In an embodiment, the methods disclosed herein reduce the AHI in subjects with OSA. [0094] In an embodiment, administration of the composition disclosed herein reduces the AHI of the subject by at least 30% (e.g., by 30%, 31%, 32%, 33%, 34%, 35%, 36%, 37%, 38%, 39%, 40%, 41%, 42%, 43%, 44%, 45%, 46%, 47%, 48%, 49%, 50%, 51%, 52%, 53%, 54%, 55%, 56%, 57%, 58%, 59%, 60%, 61%, 62%, 63%, 64%, 65%, 66%, 67%, 68%, 69%, 70%, 71%, 72%, 73%, 74%, 75%, 76%, 77%, 78% 79%, 80%, 81%, 82%, 83%, 84%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99%, or by 100%) relative to the baseline AHI of the subject prior to the administration of the composition disclosed herein. [0095] Accordingly, in an embodiment, administration of the composition disclosed herein reduces the AHI of the subject by at least 30%, at least 31%, at least 32%, at least 33%, at least 34%, at least 35%, at least 36%, at least 37%, at least 38%, at least 39%, at least 40%, at least 41%, at least 42%, at least 43%, at least 44%, at least 45%, at least 46%, at least 47%, at least 48%, at least 49%, at least 50%, at least 51%, at least 52%, at least 53%, at least 54%, at least 55%, at least 56%, at least 57%, at least 58%, at least 59%, at least 60%, at least 61%, at least 62%, at least 63%, at least 64%, at least 65%, at least 66%, at least 67%, at least 68%, at least 69%, at least 70%, at least 71%, at least 72%, at least 73%, at least 74%, at least 75%, at least 76%, at least 77%, at least 78% at least 79%, at least 80%, at least 81%, at least 82%, at least 83%, at least 84%, at least 85%, at least 86%, at least 87%, at least 88%, at least 89%, at least 90%, at least 91%, at least 92%, at least 93%, at least 94%, at least 95%, at least 96%, at least 97%, at least 98%, at least 99%, or by at least 100% relative to the baseline AHI of the subject prior to the administration of the composition disclosed herein. [0096] In an embodiment, the methods disclosed herein are useful in reducing ODI in subjects with OSA. [0097] In an embodiment, administration of the composition disclosed herein reduces the ODI of the subject by at least 20% (e.g., by 20%, 21%, 22%, 23%, 24%, 25%, 26%, 27%, 28%, 29%, 30%, 31%, 32%, 33%, 34%, 35%, 36%, 37%, 38%, 39%, 40%, 41%, 42%, 43%, 44%, 45%, 46%, 47%, 48%, 49%, 50%, 51%, 52%, 53%, 54%, 55%, 56%, 57%, 58%, 59%, 60%, 61%, 62%, 63%, 64%, 65%, 66%, 67%, 68%, 69%, 70%, 71%, 72%, 73%, 74%, 75%, 76%, 77%, 78% 79%, 80%, 81%, 82%, 83%, 84%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99%, or by 100%) relative to the baseline ODI of the subject prior to the administration of the composition disclosed herein. [0098] Accordingly, in an embodiment, administration of the composition disclosed herein reduces the ODI of the subject by at least 20%, at least 21%, at least 22%, at least 23%, at least 24%, at least 25%, at least 26%, at least 27%, at least 28%, at least 29%, at least 30%, at least 31%, at least 32%, at least 33%, at least 34%, at least 35%, at least 36%, at least 37%, at least 38%, at least 39%, at least 40%, at least 41%, at least 42%, at least 43%, at least 44%, at least 45%, at least 46%, at least 47%, at least 48%, at least 49%, at least 50%, at least 51%, at least 52%, at least 53%, at least 54%, at least 55%, at least 56%, at least 57%, at least 58%, at least 59%, at least 60%, at least 61%, at least 62%, at least 63%, at least 64%, at least 65%, at least 66%, at least 67%, at least 68%, at least 69%, at least 70%, at least 71%, at least 72%, at least 73%, at least 74%, at least 75%, at least 76%, at least 77%, at least 78% at least 79%, at least 80%, at least 81%, at least 82%, at least 83%, at least 84%, at least 85%, at least 86%, at least 87%, at least 88%, at least 89%, at least 90%, at least 91%, at least 92%, at least 93%, at least 94%, at least 95%, at least 96%, at least 97%, at least 98%, at least 99%, or by at least 100% relative to the baseline ODI of the subject prior to the administration the composition disclosed herein. [0099] In some embodiments, periodic re-administration of the composition may be required to achieve a desirable therapeutic effect. The exact amounts and rates of administration of the composition will depend on a number of factors, examples of which are described elsewhere herein, such as the subject’s age, body weight, general health, sex and dietary requirements, as well as any drugs or agents used in combination or coincidental with the administration of the composition. Where multiple doses are required, these may be administered hourly, daily, weekly, monthly or at other suitable time intervals or the dose may be proportionally reduced as indicated by the exigencies of the situation. [0100] In an embodiment, the composition is administered at least one, at least two, at least three, or at least four times per day. [0101] In an embodiment, the composition is administered twice per day. [0102] In an embodiment, the composition is administered to the subject between about 10 minutes and about 120 minutes before sleep (e.g., 10 minutes, 11 minutes, 12 minutes, 13 minutes, 14 minutes, 15 minutes, 16 minutes, 17 minutes, 18 minutes, 19 minutes, 20 minutes, 21 minutes, 22 minutes, 23 minutes, 24 minutes, 25 minutes, 26 minutes, 27 minutes, 28 minutes, 29 minutes, 30 minutes, 31 minutes, 32 minutes, 33 minutes, 34 minutes, 35 minutes, 36 minutes, 37 minutes, 38 minutes, 39 minutes, 40 minutes, 41 minutes, 42 minutes, 43 minutes, 44 minutes, 45 minutes, 46 minutes, 47 minutes, 48 minutes, 49 minutes, 50 minutes, 51 minutes, 52 minutes, 53 minutes, 54 minutes, 55 minutes, 56 minutes, 57 minutes, 58 minutes, 59 minutes, 60 minutes, 61 minutes, 62 minutes, 63 minutes, 64 minutes, 65 minutes, 66 minutes, 67 minutes, 68 minutes, 69 minutes, 70 minutes, 71 minutes, 72 minutes, 73 minutes, 74 minutes, 75 minutes, 76 minutes, 77 minutes, 78 minutes, 79 minutes, 80 minutes, 81 minutes, 82 minutes, 83 minutes, 84 minutes, 85 minutes, 86 minutes, 87 minutes, 88 minutes, 89 minutes, 90 minutes, 91 minutes, 92 minutes, 93 minutes, 94 minutes, 95 minutes, 96 minutes, 97 minutes, 98 minutes, 99 minutes, 100 minutes, 101 minutes, 102 minutes, 103 minutes, 104 minutes, 105 minutes, 106 minutes, 107 minutes, 108 minutes, 109 minutes, 110 minutes, 111 minutes, 112 minutes, 113 minutes, 114 minutes, 115 minutes, 116 minutes, 117 minutes, 118 minutes, 119 minutes, or 120 minutes before sleep).

[0105] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the invention described herein is susceptible to variations and modifications other than those specifically described. It is to be understood that the invention includes all such variations and modifications which fall within the spirit and scope. The invention also includes all of the steps, features, compositions and compounds referred to or indicated in this specification, individually or collectively, and any and all combinations of any two or more of said steps or features. [0106] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meanings as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs. [0107] All patents, patent applications and publications mentioned herein are hereby incorporated by reference in their entireties. [0108] The various embodiments enabled herein are further described by the following non-limiting examples. Examples Example 1 – Clinical trial [0109] Nine subjects with known or suspected OSA (i.e., Apnoea-Hypopnoea Index (AHI) ≥ 15) were randomized to investigate the effects of Δ-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof (i.e., dronabinol) and acetazolamide at three different dose levels on AHI, oxygen desaturation index (ODI), daytime somnolence, and subject well-being. Each subject was screened at baseline to ensure that they met inclusion/exclusion criteria including an overnight PSG to ensure that AHI ≥ 15 and medical history review and physical examination to confirm that they were physically well, with no severe psychiatric, cardiac, renal, endocrine, gastrointestinal, or bleeding disorders. [0110] The study consisted of four, seven-day treatment periods. During each treatment period the subject received a different dose of THC and acetazolamide, either low dose (2.5 mg dronabinol, 125 mg acetazolamide), medium dose (5 mg dronabinol, 250 mg acetazolamide), high dose (10 mg dronabinol, 500 mg acetazolamide), or placebo (appearance matched capsules containing no drug). All subjects received placebo for the first treatment period and the order of the low, medium and high dose treatment periods were randomised between subjects. On night seven of each treatment period, AHI was determined using overnight polysomnography (PSG). Daytime somnolence was also assessed using the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) and alertness was assessed using the Stanford Sleepiness Scale (SSS). AHI was compared to baseline (screening) to determine the effect of the drug treatment on OSA. A blood sample was collected to assess blood cell count, electrolytes, urea, liver enzymes and levels of THC and the two main metabolites of THC, being OH- THC and COOH-THC. [0111] The primary endpoint of the study is reduction in AHI after each treatment period compared to baseline. Secondary endpoints including reduction in ESS and SSS score are also calculated relative to baseline. Apnoea-Hypopnoea Index (AHI) [0112] The Applicant has previously shown that THC and a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor synergize in the treatment of OSA (WO 2022/006636). Consistent with these findings, THC and acetazolamide was shown to reduce AHI in patients with OSA compared to baseline at three different doses (Table 3). This reduction was greater than observed for placebo. At the group level, the difference relative to baseline was statistically significant for the low dose and medium dose (p < 0.05; Table 4). When comparing baseline directly to each individual subject, the reduction in AHI from baseline was statistically significant (p < 0.001) across all three doses and placebo (Table 5). Oxygen desaturation index (ODI) [0113] ODI data was collected during overnight PSG on night seven of the treatment periods. As shown in Table 6, all doses of THC and acetazolamide reduced ODI in patients with OSA compared to baseline. This reduction was greater than observed for placebo. The difference relative to baseline was statistically significant for the low dose and medium dose when compared to placebo (p < 0.05). Sleep metrics and reported sleep quality [0114] Each morning of the clinical trial, subjects recorded their sleep quality for the previous night as very poor, poor, fair, good, or very good. To compare patient reported sleep quality, the proportion of subjects who reported good or very good sleep each night was averaged across each treatment period (Table 7). During the treatment periods, subjects more frequently reported that their sleep quality was good or very good than placebo. [0115] Sleep metrics were measured using an Actiwatch, a non-invasive, watch-like device to monitor rest/activity cycles, sleep parameters and motor activity. As shown in Table 8, all doses of THC and acetazolamide improved sleep efficiency (i.e., percentage of time in bed that a subject is asleep), the number of awakenings per night and the total minutes the subject was awake during the night (WASO) compared to placebo. Example 2 – Exemplary compositions comprising THC and acetazolamide [0116] Exemplary compositions according to the present disclosure comprise the ingredients in Table 9. [0117] The solid dosage form of acetazolamide according to this example is a solid tablet comprising a number of inactive ingredients (i.e., excipients) including those listed in Table 10. [0118] As described elsewhere herein, the compositions may be produced according to the methods disclosed in US Patent Nos.9,433,584, 10,383,826 and WO 2012/017325. As an exemplary composition described herein comprises a tablet solid dosage form (see, e.g., Figure 1) of acetazolamide, such exemplary compositions may be produced according to the methods described in US Patent Nos.9,433,584 and 10,383,826 as they relate to a "double" soft gel capsule (see, e.g., US Patent No.9,433,584, column 6, lines 25-50). Example 3 – Manufacture of fixed dose combination product [0119] Exemplary fixed dose combination products (i.e., composition) comprising a film coated acetazolamide tablet contained within a soft gel capsule comprising THC were manufactured by ProCaps (Barranquilla, Colombia). The manufacturing process consists of three steps: (i) manufacture of the solid dosage form of acetazolamide (e.g., tablet); (ii) manufacture of the THC oil solution; and (iii) combination of the solid dosage form of acetazolamide and THC oil solution within a soft gel capsule. Acetazolamide tablet [0120] Each acetazolamide tablet contains 125 or 250 mg of active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) and the inactive ingredients as listed in Table 10. The acetazolamide, talc, glycerin, sodium starch glycolate, pregelatinized starch, lactose monohydrate, gelatin type LB115 Bloom-RXL R2, were first blended as dry powders. Water was then added to 21.5% to act as a binding agent and mixing continued. The mixture was then heated at 40°C to dry, followed by addition of magnesium stearate and a final mixing step. The blended powder was then pressed into tablets. Δ-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) sesame oil solution [0121] The THC sesame oil solution contains 1% w/w dronabinol or 0.5% w/w dronabinol in the 5 mg and 2.5 mg THC dose forms, respectively. Dronabinol was supplied from the drug substance manufacturer as a 20% w/w solution in sesame oil. The drug substance was diluted in sesame oil, NF, to the required final concentration and mixed. [0122] The inactive ingredients of the fixed dose combination product are provided in Table 10. Samples of the fixed dose combination product were stored at 2°C to 8°C, 25 ± 2°C at 60 ± 5% relative humidity (RH), and 40 ± 2°C at 75 ± 5% RH and assessed for stability using methods from the US Pharmacopeia (USP) monograph for acetazolamide tablets and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis for THC, acetazolamide and related substances at 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, and 36 months. Dissolution of THC and acetazolamide from the fixed dose combination product was also assessed (Tables 11, 12 and 15-18). Fixed dose combination product [0123] The fixed dose combination product is manufactured according to the method described by Salazar Altamaer et al. (US Patent No. 9,433,584). Briefly, soft gel capsules containing a solid dose form drug encapsulated by a polymer capsule are manufactured in the liquid filled soft gel capsule. For the fixed dose combination product described herein, the acetazolamide tablet is contained within a soft gel capsule of THC in sesame oil. The resulting soft gel capsules are size 20 oblong soft gel capsules (i.e., 0.986-1.232 cc). Each soft gel capsule contains 125 mg acetazolamide and 2.5 mg THC or 250 mg acetazolamide and 5 mg THC. The soft gel capsules were manufactured and stored at ambient temperature prior to release analysis. Release of the acetazolamide tablet component was conducted using methods in the USP monograph for acetazolamide tablets with impurities assessed using HPLC. THC impurities were assessed using an HPLC method based on the method listed in the USP monograph for dronabinol, the synthetic form of THC. Example 4 – Stability of soft gel capsule fixed dose combination product [0124] The soft gel capsule fixed dose combination product described in Example 3 were packaged into blister packs and a formal stability study with conditions of 5 ± 3^C up to 12 months and 25 ± 2 ^C / 60 ± 5 % RH with time points up to 6 months. At least six individual dose units were tested in each assay. Data from the stability study is presented below in Tables 13, 14, 19 and 20. Results from all tests met the acceptance criteria across all conditions. Example 5 – Pharmacokinetics analysis following oral administration of soft gel capsule fixed dose combination product [0125] 125 human subjects were recruited to participate in clinical studies to assess inter alia the bioavailability and pharmacokinetics of acetazolamide and THC following oral administration of the soft gel capsule fixed dose combination product comprising 250 mg acetazolamide and 5 mg THC. [0126] Each subject received one dose of the soft gel capsule fixed dose combination product and were monitored for 48 hours. Blood samples were collected pre-administration, and 0.08, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36, and 48 hours post- administration. Blood samples were assessed for acetazolamide, THC and THC metabolite concentration. [0127] Both THC and acetazolamide were found to be bioavailable within 30 minutes of administrations, with peak blood concentrations of THC and acetazolamide observed at 1 hour and 3.5 hours post-administration, respectively (Figure 3). [0128] Surprisingly, the soft gel capsule fixed dose combination resulted in the gradual release of acetazolamide compared to acetazolamide as a single agent, as evidenced by a higher Tmax and lower Cmax values (Table 22). Modified and slow-release dose forms of acetazolamide have previously been developed to offer sustained therapeutic effects, reduce dosing frequency and improve patient compliance in the context of treating glaucoma, epilepsy, altitude sickness, idiopathic intracranial hypertension and Meniere's disease. Accordingly, the modified release and uptake of acetazolamide following administration of the soft gel capsule fixed dose combination may assist in prolonging the beneficial effects of the combination of THC and acetazolamide throughout the treatment period. [0129] In many jurisdictions, it is possible to drive a vehicle with a blood level of 1-2 ng/mL THC. Pleasingly, the soft gel capsule fixed dose combination also resulted in a peak THC blood concentration of 1.081 ng/mL at 1 hour post-administration (Table 23). The blood concentration of THC gradually reduced over time, with as little as 0.096 ng/mL THC measured at 6 hours post-administration, and 0.031 ng/mL THC measured at 8 hours post- administration. It follows, therefore, that administration of the soft gel capsule fixed dose combination just prior to sleep can achieve the therapeutic outcome of reduction in AHI, but beneficially achieve sufficient clearance of THC to allow patients to drive or operate other vehicles the morning after administration. [0130] The pharmacokinetic parameters for THC and other major metabolites COOH- THC and OH-THC were otherwise comparable to single agent THC (i.e., dronabinol) (Tables 24-28). Summary [0131] The combination of THC and acetazolamide synergize to treat OSA. The simultaneous administration of these two APIs has been enabled by the encapsulation of THC in a first capsule and a solid dosage form of acetazolamide in a second capsule, which is incorporated into the first capsule. The present disclosure thus provides a composition that allows for the simultaneous delivery of the synergistic combination of THC and acetazolamide, regardless of physical-chemical compatibility and/or stabilities liabilities of the two APIs. [0132] Moreover, it has been demonstrated that THC and acetazolamide are bioavailable and therapeutically beneficial concentrations following oral administration as soft gel capsule fixed dose combination. The sustained release of acetazolamide beneficially provides maintained levels of acetazolamide, while avoiding adverse effects. In addition, the blood concentrations of THC observed following oral administration peak 1 hour post- administration, which clears to a level that is well below legal limits for operating vehicles, including motor vehicles, shortly after administration.
