Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080275001SOLID ORAL DOSAGE FORM CONTAINING AN ENHANCER - The invention relates to a solid oral dosage form comprising a pharmaceutically active ingredient in combination with an enhancer which enhances the bioavailability and/or the absorption of the active ingredient. Accordingly, a solid oral dosage form comprises a drug and an enhancer wherein the enhancer is a medium chain fatty acid ester, ether or salt or a derivative of a medium chain fatty acid, which is, preferably, solid at room temperature and which has a carbon chain length of from 6 to 20 carbon atoms. Preferably, the solid oral dosage form is controlled release dosage form such as a delayed release dosage form.11-06-2008
20100028421Solid Oral Dosage Form Containing an Enhancer - The invention relates to a solid oral dosage form comprising a pharmaceutically active ingredient in combination with an enhancer which enhances the bioavailability and/or the absorption of the active ingredient. Accordingly, a solid oral dosage form comprises a drug and an enhancer wherein the enhancer is a medium chain fatty acid ester, ether or salt or a derivative of a medium chain fatty acid, which is, preferably, solid at room temperature and which has a carbon chain length of from 6 to 20 carbon atoms. Preferably, the solid oral dosage form is controlled release dosage form such as a delayed release dosage form.02-04-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080248123Nanoparticulate anticonvulsant and immunosuppressive compositions - Described are controlled release nanoparticulate formulations comprising a nanoparticulate agent to be administered and a rate-controlling polymer which functions to prolong the release of the agent following administration. The novel compositions release the agent following administration for a time period ranging from about 2 to about 24 hours or longer.10-09-2008
20090297619NANOPARTICULATE ANTICONVULSANT AND IMMUNOSUPPRESSIVE COMPOSITIONS - Described are controlled release nanoparticulate formulations comprising a nanoparticulate agent to be administered and a rate-controlling polymer which functions to prolong the release of the agent following administration. The novel compositions release the agent following administration for a time period ranging from about 2 to about 24 hours or longer.12-03-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080213371Rapidly disintegrating solid oral dosage form - Disclosed is a rapidly disintegrating solid oral dosage form of a poorly soluble active ingredient and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable water-soluble or water dispersible excipient, wherein the poorly soluble active ingredient particles have an average diameter, prior to inclusion in the dosage form, of less than about 2000 nm. The dosage form of the invention has the advantage of combining rapid presentation and rapid dissolution of the active ingredient in the oral cavity.09-04-2008

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100119611Delivery of a Bioactive Material - A solid pharmaceutical composition comprising a water-soluble bioactive material and an encapsulating material which is present in the composition in the form of continuous solid phase, and in which solid particles of the bioactive material are dispersed and encapsulated in the continuous solid phase of the encapsulating material, wherein each of the bioactive material and the encapsulating material is normally a solid at room temperature and the melting point of the encapsulating material is lower than the melting point of the bioactive material, the bioactive material being preferably a bisphosphonate, most preferably alendronate, and the encapsulating material includes an enhancer, preferably a mono- or di-glyceride, or an encapsulating surfactant, preferably a polyoxyethylene/polyoxypropylene block copolymer having surface active properties, and a process for preparing the composition in which solid particles of the bioactive material are mixed with and dispersed in the encapsulating material which is in molten (liquid) form; and cooling the molten form of the encapsulating material to form a solid pharmaceutical composition having the solid particles of the bioactive material dispersed and encapsulated in a continuous solid phase of the encapsulating material.05-13-2010
