Pharmaceutical compositions
The present invention relates to the field of methods for providing pharmaceutical compositions comprising poorly water-soluble drugs. In particular the present invention relates to compositions comprising stable, amorphous hybrid nanoparticles, comprising at least one protein kinase inhibitor and at least one polymeric stabilizing and matrix-forming component, useful in pharmaceutical compositions and in therapy.
1. A pharmaceutical composition, comprising:

(ii) at least one polymeric stabilizing and matrix-forming component in an amount of about 60% by weight to about 90% by weight of the particles;
wherein the protein kinase inhibitor is dasatinib, dasatinib hydrate, dasatinib solvate, dasatinib salt, or combinations thereof.
2. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the amount of the protein kinase inhibitor is from about 10% by weight to about 30% by weight of the particles.
3. The composition of claim 2 , wherein the amount of the at least one polymeric stabilizing and matrix-forming component is from about 70% by weight to about 90% by weight of the particles.
4. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the amount of the protein kinase inhibitor is from about 30% by weight to about 40% by weight of the particles.
5. The composition of claim 2 , wherein the amount of the at least one polymeric stabilizing and matrix-forming component is from about 60% by weight to about 70% by weight of the particles.
6. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the protein kinase inhibitor is dasatinib.
7. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the protein kinase inhibitor is dasatinib hydrate.
8. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the protein kinase inhibitor is dasatinib solvate.
9. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the protein kinase inhibitor is dasatinib salt.
10. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the at least one polymeric stabilizing and matrix-forming component is selected from methyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose phthalate, polyvinylpyrrolidone, polyvinyl acetate phthalate, copolyvidone, crospovidone, methacrylic acid and ethylacrylate copolymer, methacrylate acid and methyl methacrylate copolymer, polyethylene glycol, DL lactide/glycolide copolymer, poly DL-lactide, cellulose acetate phthalate, carbomer homopolymer Type A, carbomer homopolymer Type B, aminoalkyl methacrylate copolymers, and poloxamers.
11. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the at least one polymeric stabilizing and matrix-forming component is selected from the group consisting of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose phthalate, hydroxypropyl cellulose, copolyvidone, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate, polyvinyl acetate phthalate, cellulose acetate phthalate and polyvinylpyrrolidone.
12. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition further comprises an excipient.
13. The composition of claim 12 , wherein the excipient comprises a binding agent, a disintegrant, a filler, a lubricant, a solubilizer, a wetting agent, or a combination thereof.
14. The composition of claim 13 , wherein the solubilizer is selected from the group consisting of a d-α-tocopherol acid polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate, a PEG-40 hydrogenated castor oil, a PEG-35 castor oil, a PEG-40 stearate, a hard fat, a polyoxylglyceride, a PEG-8 caprylic/capric glyceride, and a poloxamer.
15. The composition of claim 13 , wherein the solubilizer is selected from the group consisting of d-α-tocopherol acid polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate and a hydrogenated castor oil.
16. The composition of claim 13 , wherein the solubilizer is present in an amount of about 0.5% by weight based on the weight of the particles and solubilizer.
17. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the amorphous solid dispersion comprises a powder.
18. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the particles have an average particle diameter size of less than: (i) about 1000 nm, (ii) about 500 nm, or (iii) about 250 nm.
