Abstract

A pharmaceutical composition comprising Compound 1, (R)-1-(2,2-difluorobenzo[d][1,3]dioxo-5-yl)-N-(1-(2,3-dihydroxypropyl)-6-fluoro-2-(1-hydroxy-2-methylpropan-2-yl)-1H-indol-5-yl)cyclopropanecarboxamide, and at least one excipient selected from: a filler, a disintegrant, a surfactant, a glidant and a lubricant, the composition being suitable for oral administration to a patient in need thereof to treat a CFTR mediated disease such as Cystic Fibrosis. Methods for treating a patient in need thereof include administering the pharmaceutical composition of Compound 1 are also disclosed.

Claims (313)

1. A method for treating cystic fibrosis in a patient, comprising coadministering:

a) a pharmaceutical composition comprising 5 to 250 mg of (R)-1-(2,2-difluorobenzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-yl)-N-(1-(2,3-dihydroxypropyl)-6-fluoro-2-(1-hydroxy-2-methylpropan-2-yl)-1H-indol-5-yl)cyclopropanecarboxamide (Compound 1) and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, wherein Compound 1 is in a spray dried dispersion; and

b) another pharmaceutical composition comprising 100 to 300 mg N-(5-hydroxy-2,4-ditert-butyl-phenyl)-4-oxo-1H-quinoline-3-carboxamide (Compound 2) and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier;

wherein the patient has a defective gene that causes a deletion of phenylalanine at position 508 of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator amino acid sequence.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the pharmaceutically acceptable carrier in part

a) comprises:

a. a filler;

b. a disintegrant;

c. a lubricant; and

d. a glidant.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the 5 to 250 mg of Compound 1 is administered prior to the 100 to 300 mg of Compound 2.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the 5 to 250 mg of Compound 1 is administered concurrently with the 100 to 300 mg of Compound 2.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the 5 to 250 mg of Compound 1 is administered subsequent to the 100 to 300 mg of Compound 2.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein Compound 1 is in the form of Compound 1 Amorphous Form.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein Compound 1 or Compound 1 Amorphous Form is present in the tablet in an amount of about 10 mg.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein Compound 1 or Compound 1 Amorphous Form is present in the tablet in an amount of about 30 mg.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein Compound 1 or Compound 1 Amorphous Form is present in the tablet in an amount of about 100 mg.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the tablet has the formulation set forth in one of the following tables:
