preparation example Construction

[0078] Examples of the preparation and use of Crofelemer are described in U.S. Patent 7,556,831, U.S. Patent Publication 20070254050, and U.S. Patent Publication 20080031984, all of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.

[0079] One embodiment includes a pharmaceutical composition comprising crofelemer and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

[0080] The pharmaceutical composition described herein may also include excipients, such as one or more of diluents, binders, lubricants, disintegrants, coloring agents, flavoring agents, or sweetening agents. The composition can be formulated into selected coated and uncoated tablets, hard and soft gelatin capsules, sugar-coated pills, lozenges, dry paste tablets, small pills and powders in sealed packages. For example, the composition can be formulated into preparations for topical use, such as ointments, hair creams, creams, gels, and lotions.

Embodiment 1

[0148] Example 1: Pulmonary effects of oral administration of Crofelemer in rats

[0149] Crofelemer was administered to three treatment groups of 8 male rats at dose levels of 60, 200 and 600 mg / kg, respectively. Another group of 8 male rats were used as control animals, and vehicle (purified water) was administered. Crofelemer and vehicle were administered at a dose volume of 10 mL / kg. Another group of 8 male rats received the positive control baclofen at a dose level of 100 mg / kg and a dose volume of 15 mL / kg. Crofelemer, positive control substance and vehicle were administered to all groups by oral gavage.

[0150] For all animals, mortality, morbidity, injury, and access to food and water were observed at least twice a day. Clinical observations were performed before administration, approximately 1 hour after administration, and after completion of the lung monitoring period (approximately 4 hours after administration). Measure and record body weight before administration ...

Embodiment 2

[0152] Example 2: 13-week oral toxicity study of Crofelemer administered to mice

[0153] Crofelemer was administered to three groups of 15 male and 15 female mice at dose levels of 40, 400 and 1200 mg / kg / day, respectively. Another group of 15 animals / sex served as a control and received vehicle (purified water). Vehicle or Crofelemer was administered to all groups at a dose volume of 10 mL / kg. In addition, 8 or 39 animals / sex / group of the four groups were used as TK animals, and the doses of 0, 40, 400, or 1200 mg / kg / day were used in the same way as the main research group. The dose level receives the reference substance or Crofelemer. Due to death, Crofelemer was administered to 1200 mg / kg / day main study animals and TK animals for up to 55 or 56 days.

[0154] For all animals, two / day observations were performed on morbidity, mortality, injury, and availability of food and water. Perform detailed clinical observation of clinical signs on all major research animals every week....
