Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] Cross-reference of related applications This application claims priority from U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 452,985, filed on 17 March 2023, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. [Background technology]
[0002] Pulmonary hypertension is characterized by abnormally high blood pressure in the pulmonary vascular system. It is a progressive, fatal disease that can lead to heart failure and can occur in the pulmonary arteries, pulmonary veins, or pulmonary capillaries. Symptomatic patients experience shortness of breath, dizziness, fainting, and other symptoms, all of which worsen with exercise. There are multiple causes, the origin is unknown, it can be idiopathic, and other systems can contribute to the hypertension, such as portal pulmonary hypertension in patients who have both portal and pulmonary hypertension.
[0003] Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is classified into five groups by the World Health Organization (WHO). Group 1 PH, also called pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), includes PAH of unknown cause (idiopathic), hereditary PAH (i.e., familial PAH or FPAH), PAH caused by drugs or toxins, and PAH caused by conditions such as connective tissue disease, HIV infection, liver disease, and congenital heart disease. Group 2 PH is characterized as pulmonary hypertension associated with left heart disease. Group 3 PH is characterized as PH associated with lung diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and interstitial lung disease, as well as PH associated with sleep-related breathing disorders (e.g., sleep apnea). Group 4 PH is PH resulting from chronic thrombotic and / or embolic diseases, such as PH caused by thrombi or blood coagulation disorders in the lungs. Group 5 PH includes PH caused by other disorders or conditions, such as hematological disorders (e.g., polycythemia vera, essential thrombocythemia), systemic disorders (e.g., sarcoidosis, vasculitis), and metabolic disorders (e.g., thyroid disorders, glycogen storage disorders).
[0004] Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) affects approximately 200,000 people worldwide, with around 30,000 to 40,000 patients in the United States. PAH patients experience constriction of the pulmonary arteries, leading to increased pulmonary pressure and difficulty for the heart to pump blood to the lungs. Patients often suffer from shortness of breath and fatigue, which significantly limits their ability to perform physical activities.
[0005] The New York Heart Association (NYHA) classifies patients with PAH into four functional classes to assess the severity of the disease. Class I PAH patients, as classified by the NYHA, have no limitations on physical activity, as normal physical activity does not cause excessive dyspnea or fatigue, chest pain, or near-fainting. Class II PAH patients, as classified by the NYHA, have slight limitations on physical activity. These patients are comfortable at rest, but normal physical activity causes excessive dyspnea or fatigue, chest pain, or near-fainting. Class III PAH patients, as classified by the NYHA, have significant limitations on physical activity. Class III PAH patients are comfortable at rest, but experience excessive dyspnea or fatigue, chest pain, or near-fainting as a result of less-than-normal physical activity. Class IV PAH patients, as classified by the NYHA, are unable to perform physical activity without symptoms. Class IV PAH patients may experience dyspnea and / or fatigue at rest, and physical activity increases their discomfort. Signs of right heart failure often appear in Class IV PAH patients.
[0006] Patients with PAH are treated with endothelin receptor antagonists (ERAs), phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE-5) inhibitors, guanylate cyclase stimulants, prostanoids (e.g., prostacyclin), or combinations thereof. Examples of ERAs include ambrisentan (Letairis®), cytaxentan, bosentan (Tracleer®), and macitentan (Opsumit®). Examples of PDE-5 inhibitors indicated for the treatment of PAH include sildenafil (Revatio®) and tadalafil (Adcirca®). Examples of prostanoids indicated for the treatment of PAH include iloprost (Ventavis®), epoprocentrol (Flolan®, Veletri®), and treprostinil (Remodulin®, Tyvaso®). One approved guanylate cyclase stimulant is riociguat (Adempas®). Furthermore, patients are often treated with combinations of the aforementioned compounds.
[0007] Drugs can be administered to patients via inhalation using a dry powder inhaler (DPI). Typically, powder formulations are prepared using a blending process to reduce aggregation, provide sufficient fluidity, and thus achieve therapeutic benefits. Unfortunately, the particulate fraction (FPF), i.e., the amount of drug-containing particles small enough (<5 μm) to enter the lungs and produce a clinical effect, is typically low, often less than 50%.
[0008] There is a need to develop powder compositions with improved formulation properties (e.g., treprostinyl palmityl inhalation powder) that are administered via a dry powder inhaler for the treatment of patients with PH and PAH. [Overview of the project] [Means for solving the problem]

In some embodiments, the NGI has an inhalation (also interchangeably called gas) flow rate of 30–60 liters per minute (L / min) (e.g., 30, 40, 50, or 60), an inhalation volume of 1–4 L (e.g., 1, 2, 3, or 4 L), and an intake rate of 0.5–20 L / sec 2 It has an intake acceleration of 60 L / min, an intake volume of 4 L, and 0.5-20 L / sec. In certain embodiments, the NGI has an intake airflow of 60 L / min, an intake volume of 4 L, and an intake acceleration of 0.5-20 L / sec. 2 It has an inhalation acceleration. In the embodiment, the inhalation flow rate corresponds to a 4 kPa air pressure drop in the dry powder inhaler.
[0066] Any reference to the compound of formula I in this specification includes its pharmaceutically acceptable salts.
[0067] The term "geometric standard deviation" or "GSD" is a measure of the extent of the aerodynamic particle size distribution.
[0068] A dry powder inhaler (DPI) is a device that can be used to deliver medication to the airways. When inhaled, the medication is transported to the lungs. For medication to be inhaled via a DPI, the compressed drug powder must be broken down in a process called deagglutination.
[0069] The compositions described herein are referred to as “powder.” Such powders administered using DPI are generally referred to as dry powders. Therefore, all references to powders, powder compositions, or powder formulations used herein encompass dry powders, dry powder compositions, or dry powder formulations.
[0070] The powders used in DPIs are typically formulated by blending activators and excipients to prevent aggregation. That is, DPIs typically use micronized drugs blended with carrier particles, such as lactose, to avoid aggregation and provide sufficient fluidity. To enhance the aerosolization of the drug particles, fine lactose particles are often added to the carrier lactose to saturate the high-energy binding sites on the carrier lactose, forming aggregates that are easily separable from the drug particles.
[0071] When the powder is released from the inhaler, drug particles separate from the carrier particles and are delivered to the lungs, while larger carrier particles reach the upper respiratory tract. In this disclosure, it is surprisingly discovered that spray-dried treprostinyl palmityl (e.g., compounds of formulas (I) and (II)) with specific excipients generates free-flowing drug particles of appropriate size and particle size distribution, resulting in improved therapeutic efficacy (e.g., higher FPF) compared to blended formulations, allowing more drug particles to be delivered to the lungs. More specifically, while the FPF of blended formulations was typically less than 45% (e.g., about 11% to about 43%), the spray-dried powder compositions of this disclosure were found at an inspiratory flow rate of 60 liters per minute (L / min), an inspiratory volume of 4 L, and 0.5–20 L / sec 2 Measured with intake acceleration, it has an FPF of approximately 68% or more.
[0072] The treprostinyl palmityl inhalation powder (TPIP) provided herein is produced by a spray-drying process using mannitol and leucine as excipients and is administered via a high-resistance (HR) DPI, such as a dry powder inhaler (DPI) like the RS01 Berry Global (formerly Plastiape) device. In one embodiment, TPIP is administered to patients requiring treatment for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) or pulmonary hypertension due to interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD).

In embodiments, the pressure drop is 4 kPa. For example, the performance of ultra-high resistance (UHR), high resistance (HR), and medium resistance (MR) devices may also be evaluated by drawing 4 L of air through the DPI at flow rates of 40, 60, and 85 LPM, respectively, corresponding to an air pressure drop of 4 kPa. The aerosol characterization data for the above parameters can be compared across different DPI devices (with different resistances).
