Description

1 / 66 Cannabinoid Formulations

[001] The present invention relates to a novel formulation comprising a high amount of at least one cannabinoid, wherein the cannabinoid is in a non-crystalline form.

[002] Cannabinoids are various structural classes of compounds found primarily in the cannabis plant and in most animal organisms or as synthetic compounds. At least 113 different cannabinoids have been isolated from the cannabis plant to date.

[003] There are many different cannabinoids and terpenoids present in a cannabis sample, however, only the main cannabinoids have been associated with pharmacological activity so far.

[004] The main types of cannabinoids are: cannabidiol (CBD), tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), cannabinol (CBN), cannabigerol (CBG), cannabichromene (CBC), cannabicitran (CBT), cannabinodivarin (CBV), cannabiripsol (CBR), hexahydrocannabinol (HHC), delta-9-tetrahydrocannabiphoral (THCP), tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV), endocannabinoid (anandamide) and endocannabinoid (2-AG).

[005] Cannabinoids are known to have health benefits, which are demonstrated in medical studies, such as reducing blood pressure, reducing inflammation, preventing relapses in drug and alcohol addiction, treating anxiety disorders, treating gastrointestinal (GI) disorders, and preventing seizures.

[006] Cannabinoids can be administered in several ways, including by inhaling cannabis smoke or vapor, via Petition 870250080872, dated 09 / 09 / 2025, page 19 / 90 2 / 66 oral, for example, in tablet or capsule form, and as an aerosol spray in the cheek.

[007] Crystalline cannabinoids have been found to have low oral bioavailability. For example, it is estimated that only 6% of an orally administered dose of crystalline cannabinoid was bioavailable under fasting conditions. On the other hand, cannabinoid dissolved in lipids has been reported to exhibit approximately 4-fold increased bioavailability.

[008] One problem regarding the formulation of cannabinoids, particularly in high-dose forms, is the low solubility in water, as well as the limited solubility of cannabinoids in various oils. This makes it challenging to provide liquid or solid dosage forms containing high amounts of one or more cannabinoids, particularly in non-crystalline form, for improved bioavailability.

[009] Thus, the objective of the present invention is to provide a formulation in which at least one cannabinoid is formulated in a high quantity, and in which at least one cannabinoid is (and remains during storage) in a substantially non-crystalline form.

[010] In addition, this formulation must be usable to produce additional application forms (such as powders, tablets, capsules, etc.), which are also stable in storage.

[011] In addition, the particle size of the oil droplets containing at least one cannabinoid must be small to ensure homogeneous distribution, such as in particular in the final dosage form.

[012] Surprisingly, it was found that when using Petition 870250080872, dated 09 / 09 / 2025, page 20 / 90 3 / 66 a specific ratio of Vitamin E and at least one cannabinoid, stable emulsions with high amounts of at least one cannabinoid (in particular in a dissolved non-crystalline form) can be obtained.

[013] This liquid formulation (emulsion / dispersion) can then be used as such or transformed into a solid formulation (such as powder), in which at least one cannabinoid is contained in amounts up to approximately 45% by weight, while being in a substantially non-crystalline form, i.e., better bioavailability.

[014] Thus, the present invention relates to a liquid formulation (LF) comprising (i) 5 - 85% by weight (% by weight), based on the total weight of the liquid formulation, of at least one cannabinoid, and (ii) 2 to 25% by weight, based on the total weight of the liquid formulation, of Vitamin E, and (iii) 1 to 50% by weight, based on the total weight of the liquid formulation, of at least one emulsifier, and (iv) 12 to 55% by weight, based on the total weight of the liquid formulation, of water, wherein at least 50% by weight, based on the total weight of the cannabinoid, of the at least one cannabinoid is in a non-crystalline form and the ratio of the at least one cannabinoid to vitamin E is 2:1 to 4:1.

[015] In the context of the present invention, all percentages in a formulation always reach 100% by weight.

[016] In the context of the present invention, the preferred cannabinoids are selected from the group consisting of Petition 870250080872, dated 09 / 09 / 2025, page 21 / 90 4 / 66 cannabidiol, tetrahydrocannabinol, cannabinol, cannabigerol, cannabichromene, cannabicitran, cannabinodivarin, cannabiripsol, hexahydrocannabinol, delta-9-tetrahydrocannabiphoral, tetrahydrocannabivarin, endocannabinoid and endocannabinoid.

[042] Even more preferably, in all embodiments of the present invention, 100% by weight, based on the total weight of the cannabinoid, of a cannabinoid is in a non-crystalline form.

[043] In all embodiments of the present invention, at least one cannabinoid is most advantageously in a substantially non-crystalline form, even more preferably dissolved in Vitamin E.

[044] In the context of the present invention, the term 'crystalline' is understood to mean a coherent or non-coherent part of one or more components having homogeneous physical properties, in particular a homogeneous melting range and a long-range order. It is well understood that crystals are solids, i.e., in a solid state of aggregation.

[045] In the context of the present invention, the term 'non-crystalline' is understood to mean a cohesive or non-cohesive part of one or more components with homogeneous physical properties, in particular without any homogeneous melting range and long-range order.

[046] In all embodiments of the present invention, most advantageously, the non-crystalline cannabinoid is liquid, that is, it is present in a liquid state of aggregation (e.g., dissolved), such as, in particular, dissolved in Vitamin E. Even more preferably, the non-crystalline cannabinoid is not, or is not substantially, amorphous, but dissolved.

[047] In the context of the present invention, the term 'long-range order' is understood to mean a regular and periodic spacing of molecules or atoms (here of at least one cannabinoid) in a crystalline solid. Consequently, the exact position of some molecules or atoms can be Petition 870250080872, dated 09 / 09 / 2025, page 26 / 90 9 / 66 is advantageously used to determine the position of all molecules or atoms in a crystalline solid.

[048] The content of the crystalline form of at least one cannabinoid in the liquid and solid formulation according to the present invention can be measured using commonly known methods, such as Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC).

[049] In the context of the present invention, DSC Calorimetry was used to determine the amount of crystalline form of at least one cannabinoid in the liquid, respectively solid, formulation according to the present invention, according to standard methods in the art, i.e., using the respective crystalline cannabinoid as an external standard.

[050] Thus, in all embodiments according to the present invention, preferably the degree of crystallinity (in %) is determined by DSC using the respective crystalline cannabinoid as an external standard.

[051] The DSC method as used in the present invention is carried out as follows:

[052] Liquid or powder (solid) formulations (approximately 8-10 mg) were placed in aluminum pans and hermetically sealed. Empty pans were used as reference samples. For the investigation of the crude cannabinoid material (i.e., the respective crystalline cannabinoid), approximately 1-2 mg of sample were used (external standard). Each sample was heated at 10 °C / min to 90 °C and then cooled at 10 °C / min. After heating, for the crystalline cannabinoid compound, the thermal transition peak is determined (observed), which for CBD was determined to be approximately 68 °C, which was attributed to the melting of cannabidiol crystals. Petition 870250080872, dated 09 / 09 / 2025, page 27 / 90 10 / 66 By analyzing DSC thermograms and measuring peak areas, the degree of crystallinity of a sample can then be determined, since the peak area of ​​the DSC peak corresponds to the amount of heat released during crystallization / heat consumed during melting and is proportional to the degree of crystallinity of a sample. To determine the % crystallinity, the peak areas of the samples are compared with the peak areas of the crystalline cannabinoid. The amount of crystalline cannabinoid present in the respective sample can then be calculated, which is then used to determine the degree of crystallinity (%), based on the total known amount of cannabinoid present in the sample.

[235] The following examples are presented to better illustrate the compositions and effects of the present invention. These examples are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way.

[236] All parts and percentages in the Examples are related to weight (unless otherwise indicated) and temperature is given in °C (unless otherwise indicated). Examples General Methods

[237] The degree of crystallinity of the solid formulations was measured using Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) as described below:

[238] External standard: Crystalline CBD (1-2 mg) was placed in an aluminum pan which was then hermetically sealed (external standard). An empty pan was used as a reference. The respective samples were heated from 10°C at 10°C / min to 90°C and then cooled at 10°C at 10°C / min. The crystalline CBD exhibited a thermal transition peak (melting point) at approximately 68°C. Petition 870250080872, dated 09 / 09 / 2025, pp. 73 / 90 56 / 66

[239] The respective powder (solid) formulations were also measured using approximately 8-10 mg of the respective sample.

[240] Then, the peak area of ​​the respective sample is referenced against the peak area of ​​the external standard to calculate the amount of crystals and, respectively, the percentage of crystallinity in the respective samples.

[241] All particle sizes were determined using a Beckmann Coulter, Delsa Nano S (dynamic light scattering).

[242] Bioavailability was tested using a Caco2 model as further detailed below. Figure 1: DSC thermogram of the solid formulation of example 2 (y-axis: heat flux (normalized) (W / g); x-axis Temperature (°C)) solid line: t=0 (directly after production) dashed line: after storage for 12 months at 5°C dotted line: after storage for 12 months at 25°C dashed-dotted line: after storage for 12 months at 40°C.

[243] DSC analysis showed no crystallization peaks after storage, even at low temperatures, illustrating the excellent stability of a solid formulation according to the present invention. Example 1

[244] (i) For the preparation of the lipid phase, a total of 95 g of CBD were dispersed in 40.5 g of (all-rac)-α-tocopherol a Petition 870250080872, dated 09 / 09 / 2025, pp. 74 / 90 57 / 66 75°C while stirring until completely dissolved.

[245] The lipid phase was kept warm until complete dispersion in the aqueous phase.

[246] (ii) For preparation of the aqueous phase, a total of 123 g of porcine gelatin, bloom 140, was hydrated and dissolved in 167.5 g of hot water (40°C). Subsequently, 23.5 g of dehydrated glucose syrup, DE2023, were added and the solution was heated to the process temperature of 75°C.

[247] (iii) The hot liquid phase was stirred, and the hot lipid phase was added slowly and homogenized at elevated temperature (about 75°C) to form a liquid formulation. No crystals were observed in the liquid formulation (visual assessment).

[248] After adjusting the viscosity with water (approximately 440 g), the emulsion was spray-dried at approximately 180°C inlet temperature, 80°C outlet temperature using maltodextrin as carrier (approximately 6%).

[249] A fine-flowing powder was obtained, containing approximately 2.5% residual water and 32.8% CBD with >99% of the CBD in non-crystalline form as determined by DSC (i.e., no detectable crystals). Example 2

[250] (i) For the preparation of the lipid phase, a total of 95 g of CBD were dispersed in 40.5 g of (todo-rac)-α-tocopherol at 75°C under stirring until complete dissolution. Subsequently, 1.51 g of Vitamin E-TPGS was added to the hot (75°C) CBD / (todo-rac)-α-tocopherol mixture and homogenized.

[251] The lipid phase was kept warm until complete dispersion in the aqueous phase. Petition 870250080872, dated 09 / 09 / 2025, pp. 75 / 90 58 / 66

[252] (ii) For the preparation of the aqueous phase, a total of 123 g of porcine gelatin, bloom 140, was hydrated and dissolved in hot water (40°C). Subsequently, 31.5% dehydrated glucose syrup, DE2023, was added and the solution was heated to the process temperature of 75°C.

[253] (iii) The hot aqueous phase was stirred, and the hot lipid phase was slowly added and homogenized for 40 min at an elevated temperature of about 75°C to form a liquid formulation. No crystals were observed in the liquid formulation (visual assessment).

[254] After adjusting the viscosity with water, the emulsion was spray-dried at approximately 180°C inlet temperature, 80°C outlet temperature, using maltodextrin as a carrier (approximately 6%).

[255] A fine-flowing powder was obtained, containing approximately 2.5% residual water and 3.6% CBD with >99% of the CBD in non-crystalline form, as determined by DSC (i.e., below the limit of detection (abbreviation bld)). The sample remained stable, i.e., it did not show crystal formation even when stored at various temperatures, as determined by DSC measurements after 12 months of storage at 5°C, 25°C and 40°C, as shown in Figure 1. Table 1 Ingredients Example 1 Example 2 % by weight % by weight CBD 26.5 26.4 (all-rac)-α-tocopherol (Vit.

[256] As can be seen in Table 1, the addition of Vitamin E-TPGS surprisingly reduced the particle size. Furthermore, no crystal formation was observed, either in liquid or solid form. Example 3

[257] A 40% CBD powder (solid) formulation was prepared analogously to Example 2 with the ingredients as shown in Table 2. Again, no crystal formation was observed in the liquid formulation (visual assessment). The fine-flowing powder obtained contained approximately 2.5% residual water and 40.7% CBD with >99% of the CBD in non-crystalline form, as determined by DSC. The solid powder remained stable in open storage. Table 2a Ingredients Example 3b g % by weight CBD 150 27.6 (all-rac)-α-tocopherol (Vit.

[258] As can be seen from table 2b, increasing the amounts of Vitamin E-TPGS to > 7% by weight results in an increase in the stickiness of the formulation, which is less desirable as it impacts handling properties. Petition 870250080872, dated 09 / 09 / 2025, pp. 78 / 90 61 / 66

[259] As can be recovered from table 2c, the increase in the ratio to 7:1 leads to the formation of crystals compared with the solid formulations having a ratio of 4:1, which do not exhibit any crystal formation. Example 4

[260] Liquid and powder (solid) CBD formulations using OSA starch instead of gelatin were prepared in analogy to Example 1 with the ingredients as shown in Table 3. Again, no crystal formation was observed in the liquid formulations (visual assessment). Table 3 Ingredients Example 4 Example 5 [g] [%] [g] [%] CBD 51 14.5 101 25.7 (all-rac)-α-tocopherol (Vit.

[261] As can be seen from Table 3, the use of OSA starch, in contrast to the use of gelatin, resulted in some crystal formation. Example 4: Bioavailability

[262] CBD powder formulations (solids) (microspheres) comprising approximately 12-16% by weight of CBD and a particle size distribution of approximately 200 nm using different oils, as described below, were prepared to compare the influence of the oil on CBD bioavailability. Liquid formulations were prepared analogously to Petition 870250080872, dated 09 / 09 / 2025, pp. 79 / 90 62 / 66 example 1 above. Then, the respective microparticles were prepared by spraying the liquid formulation onto a fluidized bed using native corn starch. The amount of the respective oil was chosen to ensure complete dissolution of the CBD in the oil.

[263] Bioavailability was tested using the Caco-2 Bioavailability test as shown below: • Cell culture preparation

[264] Caco-2 ECACC 86010202 (European Collection of Cell Cultures, Salisbury, United Kingdom) were cultured at 37°C in a 5% CO2 atmosphere in DMEM medium supplemented with 4.5 g / L D-Glucose, 4 mM L-Glutamine, 1 mM Sodium Pyruvate, 1% MEM Non-essential Amino Acids, 50 μg / mL Gentamicin (Life Technologies Europe BV, Zug, Switzerland) and 10% heat-inactivated FBS (Sigma-Aldrich, Buchs, Switzerland). Sub-confluent cells were tryptinized using 0.25% Trypsin / EDTA (Life Petition 870250080872, dated 09 / 09 / 2025, pages 80 / 90 63 / 66 Technologies Europe BV, Zug, Switzerland. • Caco-2 Bioavailability Test

[265] Cells were seeded at a density of 70,000 cells / well in a 12-well cellQART® cell culture insert, PET membrane, 0.4 μM pore size, cell growth area of ​​1.1 cm2 / well (SABEU, Northeim, Germany). The medium was changed every two or three days. After 21 days of culture, the barrier integrity of the differentiated cell monolayers cultured in insert plates was confirmed by measuring the transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) using an EVOM2 voltameter (World Precision Instruments, Berlin) equipped with STX2-PLUS electrodes. TEER values ​​correlate with the tightness of the confluent monolayer.

[266] After 21 days, the insert plates were washed twice with HBSS solution (HBSS pH 7.4 with Ca2+ and Mg2+, containing 5.5 mM D-(+)-glucose, sodium bicarbonate, and supplemented with 4 mM L-glutamine and 20 mM HEPES, Life Technologies Europe BV, Zug, Switzerland) and incubated for 1 ha at 37 °C in a CO2 incubator. CBD treatment solutions were prepared in HBSS solution at a concentration of 15 μM. The treatment solution was applied to the apical chamber (200 μL) and 1.5 mL of BSA solution was added. 4% HBSS was added to the basolateral chamber. The plate was then incubated for 3 hours at 37 °C in a CO2 incubator on an orbital shaker (80 rpm).

[267] After incubation, buffer solutions from the basolateral (BL) and apical (API) compartments were collected and diluted in acetonitrile for analysis. Cell layers (CL) were washed once with HBSS solution, then 500 μL of acetonitrile were added to the apical portion. The cells were Petition 870250080872, dated 09 / 09 / 2025, pages 81 / 90 64 / 66 scrapings were taken from the membrane with the tip of a pipette and then collected for analysis.

[268] Cannabidiol was quantified by a stable isotope dilution LC-MS method using an Agilent 1290 Infinity II UHPLC connected to a Bruker Impact II Q-TOF mass spectrometer. Eight cannabidiol calibration solutions covering a concentration range from 2.5 ng / ml to 2000 ng / ml were prepared in acetonitrile. A 500 ng / ml solution of deuterium-labeled d3-Cannabidiol (CAS No. 1435783-16—6) in acetonitrile served as an internal standard. Before injection, 250 ml of the calibration solution were mixed with 25 ml of the internal standard. Similarly, 250 ml of the centrifuged CaCO2 compartment samples were combined with 25 ml of the internal standard. The analytical column was a Raptor ARC C18 column (2.1 x 150 mm). The mobile phase was water / acetonitrile 24:76 (v / v) containing 5 mM ammonium formate and 0.1% v / v formic acid. The chromatogram was developed isocratically at a flow rate of 0.4 ml / min and a column temperature of 30 °C. The injection volume was 1.5 ml. The column effluent was introduced into a VIP-HESI source (Bruker Daltonik GmbH) operating in positive ionization mode. The mass spectrometer was operating in full scan mode, scanning the m / z range 100-1000 with a spectrum rate of 4 Hz. High-resolution chromatograms extracted at m / z 315.2319 and m / z 318.2507 with a width of 5 mDa were used for quantification. A calibration curve was established by least squares regression, plotting the ratios of peak area (analyte area versus internal standard area) against added concentrations. Regression and computation of quantitative data were performed using TASQ 1.4 software. Petition 870250080872, dated 09 / 09 / 2025, pages 82 / 90 65 / 66 (Bruker Daltonik). The amounts of CBD measured as a percentage of the original CBD content of the apical compartment (API), basolateral compartment (BL), and cell layer (CL) are shown in Table 5. Cell permeability (reflecting bioavailability) of CBD is determined by the sum of the amounts measured in the basolateral compartment and the cell layer (BL + CL). A higher recovery indicates greater cell permeability of CBD. Table 5: Bioavailability test results CBD oil in BL and CL* [%] (all-rac)-α-tocopherol (Vit. E) 45.8% MCT 41.4% Monoolein 23.8% Monolinolein 16.2% Corn oil 23.2%

[269] Total amount of CBD in API, BL and CL was set to 100%.

[270] As can be seen from Table 5, the product form with Vit. E exhibited the best bioavailability as the highest amount of CBD was detectable in the cell lysate (CL) and basolateral portion (BL).
