Problems solved by technology

Dichlorodifluoromethane and trichlorofluoromethane were phased out in refrigeration use in the 1990s, but are still used in small quantities in MDI due to essential-use exemptions from the Montreal Protocol
[0014] The instability of pharmaceutical formulations of formoterol may result in a limited shelf life at ambient temperature and may require refrigerated storage prior to use

example 1

[0129] A number of experiments were performed to investigate the delivery of mometasone furoate and formoterol fumarate from metered dose inhalers (MDIs) using HFA-227ea or HFA-152a as propellants after initial preparation and after storage under pressure storage conditions. In vitro aerosolization properties of hydrated pharmaceutical formulations.

[0130] Micronized mometasone furoate (0.17% w / w), micronized formoterol fumarate dihydrate (0.01% / w), ethanol (2.70% w / w) and optionally oleic acid (1.70% w / w). Oleic acid (if included) is first mixed with ethanol. Drugs were weighed directly into glass containers with ethanol or ethanol / oleic acid mixture. The mixture was then homogenized using a Silverson LS5 mixer at 4000 rpm for 20 minutes. The slurry was then dispensed into 14ml coated aluminum and stainless steel containers. A 50 μL valve (Aptar, France) was then crimped onto the container and the propellant was subsequently filled into the container through the valve ...

[0154] Storage at time zero (T=0) and at 40°C and 75% relative humidity (RH) and 25°C and 60% relative humidity (RH) with the valve closed in aluminum and steel containers for 1 month (T = 1 M) and 3 months (T = 1 M) the chemical stability of mometasone furoate and formoterol fumarate dihydrate in HFA-227ea and HFA-152a with and without oleic acid was studied.

[0155] Pharmaceutical formulations were prepared as described in Example 1 above and analyzed using the HPLC technique described in Example 1 above.

[0156] The results of the chemical stability study of the combination pharmaceutical formulations of mometasone furoate (MMF) and formoterol fumarate dihydrate (FFD) in HFA-152a and HFA-227ea are shown in Tables 6 to 9 below.

example 3

[0169] Formulations containing mometasone furoate and formoterol fumarate dihydrate and HFA-227ea or HFA-152a were prepared in PET vials, and the suspension stability of the formulations was determined using Turbiscan MA 2000. The Turbiscan instrument has a read head moving along a flat bottom, a 5 mL cylindrical glass cell, and reads transmitted and backscattered light every 40 μm over a maximum sample height of 80 mm. The read head uses a pulsed near-infrared light source and two simultaneous detectors. The transmission detector acquires light transmitted through the suspension tube at 0°, while the backscatter detector receives light backscattered by the product at 135°.

[0170] The settling and size of the flocs of the different formulations are shown in Table 10 below.

Abstract

The invention describes a pharmaceutical composition. The pharmaceutical composition comprises a drug component consisting of at least one mometasone compound selected from mometasone and mometasone furoate; and a propellant component, wherein at least 90 weight % of the propellant component is 1,1-difluoroethane (R-152a), and wherein the mometasone compound is the only drug component in the composition.

Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of an application with an application date of December 2, 2016, an application number of 201680071093.4, and an invention title of "Pharmaceutical Composition" (PCT / GB2016 / 053804, date of entering the national phase on June 4, 2018) . technical field [0002] The present invention relates to the delivery of pharmaceutical formulations from medical devices such as metered dose inhalers (MDIs) using propellants comprising 1,1-difluoroethane (HFA-152a). More particularly, the present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising an R-152a propellant and a binary drug formulation dissolved or suspended in said propellant, and to medical devices containing these compositions. The pharmaceutical compositions of the invention are particularly suitable for delivery from a pressurized aerosol container using a metered dose inhaler (MDI). Background technique [0003] MDIs are the most important type of inhaled drug de...
