AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The composition achieves substantial long-term stability, remaining free of precipitation for at least 24 months and exhibiting less than 6% degradation of vancomycin B after 18 months of storage at temperatures between 5°C and 25°C, as determined by HPLC analysis.

Problems solved by technology

Vancomycin exhibits premature degradation after reconstitution of the lyophilized product.
Vancomycin is stable in water for approximately 24 hours after reconstitution, and is therefore, not suitable for long-term storage in liquid form.

examples

[0084]The following examples serve to provide further appreciation of the invention but are not meant in any way to restrict the effective scope of the invention.

examples 1-4 (

100mg / mL Vancomycin)

Example 1 (75% (v / v) 1M Lactic Acid Solution and 25% (v / v) PG):

[0085]A lactic acid solution was prepared by dissolving 7.68 g of an 88% lactic acid solution in 40 mL water for injection. The pH was then adjusted to 5.5 with a 2N sodium hydroxide solution. A 75:25 lactic acid:PG solution was prepared by adding 25 mL of PG to the above lactic acid solution, and the volume was made up to 100 mL with water for injection. 10 g of vancomycin HCl was then added to 75 ml of the 75:25 lactic acid:PG solution and the volume was made up to 100 mL with the 75:25 lactic acid:PG solution to yield a vancomycin concentration of 100 mg / mL. The sample was mixed well. 2N sodium hydroxide solution was added to the sample to bring the pH to 5.5.

example 2 (

50% (v / v) 1M Lactic Acid Solution and 50% (v / v) PG):

[0086]A lactic acid solution was prepared by dissolving 5.12 g of an 88% lactic acid solution in 40 mL water for injection. The pH was then adjusted to 5.5 with a 2N sodium hydroxide solution. A 50:50 lactic acid:PG solution was prepared by adding 50 mL of PG to the above lactic acid solution, and the volume was made up to 100 mL with water for injection. 10 g of vancomycin

[0087]HCl was then added to 75 mL of the 50:50 lactic acid:PG solution and the volume was made up to 100 mL with the 50:50 lactic acid:PG solution to yield a vancomycin concentration of 100 mg / mL. The sample was mixed well. 2N sodium hydroxide solution was added to the sample to bring the pH to 5.5.

Abstract

Vancomycin-containing compositions substantially free of precipitation after at least about 12 months of storage at refrigerated or ambient conditions are disclosed. The compositions include vancomycin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; a polar solvent including propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol and mixtures thereof; lactic acid, a lactate salt, or mixtures thereof; and optionally, a pH adjuster in an amount sufficient to maintain a pH of the compositions at from about 3 to about 8.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application is a continuation of U.S. application Ser. No. 14 / 894,215 filed Nov. 25, 2015, which in turn is a 371 U.S. national stage of PCT International Application No. PCT / US2014 / 040396, filed May 30, 2014, which claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 61 / 828,739 filed May 30, 2013, the disclosure of each of which is incorporated by reference herein.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Vancomycin is a glycopeptide antibiotic represented by the following structural formula (I):[0003]Vancomycin is used in the prophylaxis and treatment of infections caused by Gram-positive bacteria. Vancomycin is used in the treatment of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA), and to treat patients who are penicillin-resistant. Vancomycin HCl is commercially available inter alia, as a frozen premixed formulation, which can be used for intravenous administration after ...
