Solution Overview

Problem

There are no approved injectable formulations of PARP inhibitors for oncological and non-oncological indications, and existing oral formulations have low water-solubility, leading to low bioavailability and slow absorption rates, which are unsuitable for emergency medical settings.

Innovation Solution

Development of amorphous powdered pharmaceutical compositions comprising PARP inhibitors in inclusion complexes with cyclodextrins or derivatives, such as sulfobutylether-β-cyclodextrin, to enhance solubility and bioavailability, allowing for rapid administration via injection or infusion.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If oral formulations of PARP inhibitors are used, then the drugs can be administered conveniently, but the water-solubility is low leading to low bioavailability and slow absorption rates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconvenience of administrationVSAvoidbioavailability
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent changes the physical state of the PARP inhibitor from crystalline to amorphous form, which fundamentally alters the dissolution properties and increases water solubility. This parameter change enables the drug to achieve rapid dissolution and high bioavailability while maintaining ease of administration through various dosage forms

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent creates composite material systems by combining amorphous PARP inhibitors with specific excipients and solvents to formulate injectable compositions. These composite formulations enhance solubility and enable parenteral administration, thereby improving bioavailability while maintaining administrative convenience

Inventive Principle:
Principle #40Composite materials

2Ease of operation

If oral formulations of PARP inhibitors are used, then the drugs can be administered conveniently, but the absorption rate is slow making them unsuitable for emergency medical settings

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconvenience of administrationVSAvoidabsorption rate
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSSpeed

Solution Approach 1:

The transformation to amorphous form fundamentally changes the dissolution kinetics, enabling rapid dissolution and fast absorption. This parameter change allows the drug to achieve therapeutic levels quickly, making it suitable for emergency settings while preserving ease of administration

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent develops injectable formulations that deliver the drug directly into the bloodstream or tissue, bypassing the gastrointestinal absorption pathway. This hydraulic delivery method achieves immediate bioavailability and rapid onset of action, ideal for emergency medical situations

Inventive Principle:
Principle #29Pneumatics and hydraulics

3Reliability

If injectable formulations are developed, then rapid effectiveness and high bioavailability can be achieved, but the water-solubility of PARP inhibitors must be improved first

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovebioavailabilityVSAvoidwater-solubility
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies parameter changes by converting the crystalline PARP inhibitor to amorphous form, which dramatically improves water solubility. This enables the formulation of injectable compositions with high bioavailability while maintaining manufacturing feasibility through established amorphization techniques

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces solubilizing excipients and surfactants as intermediaries that enhance the water solubility of amorphous PARP inhibitors. These mediators facilitate the formation of stable, soluble injectable formulations without compromising the active ingredient's efficacy

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
