Embodiment 1

[0184] Example 1: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel-Group, Dose-Ranging Finding Trial to Determine Oral Administration of Bile Acid Sequester Formulations in Patients with Symptomatic GERD Incompletely Responsive to Proton Pump Inhibitors for 8 Weeks safety and efficacy.

[0185] This example presents the protocol and results of a multicenter (approximately 60-80 centers in the United States), randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group, 8-week study consisting of 3 distinct periods (screening period up to 28 days; pretreatment period 14-21 days; treatment period 57 days). Such as figure 1 , the study included patients who had GERD and continued to experience GERD symptoms while receiving once-daily treatment with a proton pump inhibitor at the standard dose that the investigators considered optimized. Eligible patients continued to take PPIs and were randomized to either placebo or IW-3718 500 mg twice daily, IW-3718 1000 mg twice dai...

Embodiment 2

[0793] Example 2: A single-center, open-label, randomized, single-dose, 3-channel scintigraphy study in healthy subjects with 3 periods, each with a different phase designed to evaluate the in vivo performance of IW-3718 The in vivo performance of the breakfast composition, IW-3718, will be compared to that of an immediate release bile acid sequestrant in the fed state.

[0794] The purpose of this study was to compare the gastroprotective properties of a 500 mg IW-3718 tablet in the fed state compared to an immediate release formulation (Comparative Product Immediate Release Cholestagel [bile acid sequestrant; 625 mg]) . The gastrointestinal maintenance properties of the two drugs were studied after breakfast with different fat and calorie contents.

[0795] The recommended cholesterol dose is 6 x 625 mg tablets per day; the dose chosen in this study was 1 x 625 mg tablet in each of the 3 periods. This dose was well within the recommended daily dose, limiting exposure to he...

Embodiment 3

[1104] Example 3, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel-Group, Dose-Range Exploratory Trial to Determine the Safety and Efficacy of Oral Bile Acid Sequestration Formulations in Patients with Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease for Up to 8 Weeks

[1105] eligibility criteria

[1106] Inclusion criteria

[1107] Each patient must meet all of the following criteria to be eligible to participate in this study:

[1108] Patients had signed the ICF prior to performing any study-specific procedures.

[1109] Patients were nonhospitalized male or female (if female, not pregnant) and at least 18 years old at the screening visit.

[1110] Patients had a diagnosis of GERD and reported experiencing GERD symptoms (heartburn or regurgitation) on average > 4 days per week in the last 8 weeks prior to the Screening Visit.

[1111] Patients had received standard labeled dose, QD, PPI therapy (which, in the investigator's judgment, could not be further improved by changing the b...

Abstract

Methods and formulations of reducing one or more symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in a human patient with symptomatic GERD not completely responsive to proton pump inhibitors (PPIs).The patient is administered a therapeutically effective amount of an enteric coated gastro-retentive oral dosage form in the form of a tablet of a bile acid sequestrant dispersed in a polymeric matrix consisting essentially of poly(alkylene)oxide and one or more filler or compressing agent such that the patient experiences a clinically meaningful reduction in one or more symptoms of GERD.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates, inter alia, to methods of treating eg GERD using gastroretentive oral dosage forms comprising bile acid sequestrants. Background technique [0002] Bile reflux occurs when bile travels up (refluxes) from the small intestine into the stomach and then into the esophagus. When the lower esophageal sphincter (LES), which separates the esophagus from the stomach, malfunctions, bile acids can back up into the esophagus. [0003] A number of diseases and / or symptoms associated with bile reflux alone or with a combination of bile reflux and acid reflux; among others, these diseases and / or symptoms include gastroesophageal reflux disease or GERD, heartburn, indigestion, dyspepsia , erosive esophagitis, peptic ulcer, gastric ulcer, esophageal ulcer, esophagitis, laryngitis, pharyngitis, rough or hoarse voice, pulmonary dysfunction (such as cough and / or asthma) associated with GERD, Barrett's esophagus, Esophageal cancer (such as ...
