Abstract

The disclosure provides new, stable, pharmaceutically acceptable amorphous solid dispersions of 1-(4-fluoro-phenyl)-4-((6bR,10aS)-3-methyl-2,3,6b,9,10,10a-hexahydro-1H,7H-pyrido[3′,4′:4,5]pyrrolo[1,2,3-de]quinoxalin-8-yl)-butan-1-one, together with methods of making and using them, and pharmaceutical compositions comprising them.

Claims (28)

1 . A method for the treatment of a human suffering from a disease or disorder selected from the group consisting of obesity, anorexia, bulimia, depression, anxiety, psychosis, schizophrenia, migraine, obsessive-compulsive disorder, sexual disorders, attention deficit disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, sleep disorders, conditions associated with cephalic pain, social phobias, and dementia, comprising administering to a patient in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of an amorphous solid dispersion comprising 1-(4-fluoro-phenyl)-4-((6bR,10aS)-3-methyl-2,3,6b,9,10,10a-hexahydro-1H,7H-pyrido[3′,4′:4,5]pyrrolo[1,2,3-de]quinoxalin-8-yl)-butan-1-one (ITI-007) tosylate salt and a stabilizing excipient and optionally further comprising an anti-oxidant and/or a surfactant,

wherein the stabilizing excipient is selected from the group consisting of cellulose acetate phthalate, hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose acetate succinate, hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose phthalate, cellulose acetate, hydroxypropyl cellulose, polyvinyl acetate, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, polyvinyl pyrrolidone/vinyl acetate copolymer, and polyethylene glycol/polyvinyl acetate/polyvinylcaprolactam copolymer.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the dispersion comprises ITI-007 tosylate salt and a stabilizing excipient selected from the group consisting of cellulose acetate phthalate, hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose acetate succinate, and hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose phthalate.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the dispersion further comprises an anti-oxidant.

4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the dispersion further comprises a surfactant.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the dispersion is x-ray amorphous.

6 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the amorphous solid dispersion is administered as a pharmaceutical composition comprising the dispersion, in combination or association with a pharmaceutically acceptable diluent or carrier.

7 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the composition is in the form of a tablet or capsule for oral administration.

8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the disease or disorder is selected from the group consisting of depression, anxiety, psychosis, schizophrenia, obsessive-compulsive disorder, sexual disorders, attention deficit disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, sleep disorders, and dementia.

9 . A process for the production of the dispersion described in claim 1 comprising the steps of:

(a) combining 1-(4-fluoro-phenyl)-4-((6bR,10aS)-3-methyl-2,3,6b,9,10,10a-hexahydro-1H,7H-pyrido[3′,4′:4,5]pyrrolo[1,2,3-de]quinoxalin-8-yl)-butan-1-one (ITI-007) tosylate salt optionally in crystal form, with the selected excipient or excipients in a suitable solvent or mixture of solvents; and

(b) removing the solvent and recovering the amorphous solid dispersion thus formed.

10 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the dispersion has an X-ray diffraction pattern which is free of peaks characteristic of the excipient.

11 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the dispersion is manufactured by a method comprising dissolving ITI-007 tosylate salt and the selected excipient in a solvent or mixture of solvents and removing the solvent to obtain the amorphous solid dispersion.

12 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the composition is in the form of a depot formulation for use as a long-acting injectable (LAI).

13 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the stabilizing excipient is selected from the group consisting of:

(a) cellulose acetate phthalate, at a weight ratio of 10:90 to 40:60 or 35:65 to 65:35 of ITI-007 tosylate salt to cellulose acetate phthalate; or

(b) hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose acetate succinate (HPMC-AS), at a weight ratio of 10:90 to 40:60 of ITI-007 tosylate salt to HPMC-AS; or

(c) hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose phthalate (HPMC-P), at a weight ratio of 10:90 to 40:60 or 35:65 to 65:35 of ITI-007 tosylate salt to HPMC-P.

14 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the stabilizing excipient is selected from the group consisting of:

(a) cellulose acetate phthalate, at a weight ratio of 20:80 to 30:70 or 40:60 to 60:40 of ITI-007 tosylate salt to cellulose acetate phthalate; or

(b) hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose acetate succinate (HPMC-AS), at a weight ratio of 20:80 to 30:70 of ITI-007 tosylate salt to HPMC-AS; or

(c) hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose phthalate (HPMC-P), at a weight ratio of 20:80 to 30:70 or 40:60 to 60:40 of ITI-007 tosylate salt to HPMC-P.

15 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the stabilizing excipient is cellulose acetate phthalate, and wherein the dispersion comprises ITI-007 tosylate salt in admixture with the stabilizing excipient in a weight ratio of 25:75 or 50:50.

16 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the stabilizing excipient is hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose acetate succinate (HPMC-AS), and wherein the dispersion comprises ITI-007 tosylate salt in admixture with the stabilizing excipient in a weight ratio of 25:75.

17 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the stabilizing excipient is hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose phthalate (HPMC-P), and wherein the dispersion comprises ITI-007 tosylate salt in admixture with the stabilizing excipients in a weight ratio of 25:75 or 50:50.

18 . The method of claim 3 , wherein the anti-oxidant is selected from one or more of tocopherol, butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), propyl gallate (OPG), and ascorbic acid.

19 . The method of claim 4 , wherein surfactant is an anionic or cationic or neutral surfactant.
