Specification

Title: Formulation of Cholesterol Lowering Agents with Fibrates and Additional Substances for Prevent/Treat Atherogenesis for better Vascular Endothelial Function
FIELD OF THE INVENTION:
This invention relates to the field of Pharmaceutical Technology. More particularly the invention principally relates to pharmaceutical composition of Cholesterol lowering Agents such as, Atorvastatin, Rosuvastatin, Simvastatin, Lovastatin, Pravastatin, Pitavastatin, etc., with a nitric oxide releasing moiety OR chelated with Arginine. The subject matter of the Patent Application relates to the process of fixed dose formulation comprising a Cholesterol Reducers or their pharmaceutically acceptable hydrates, salts or esters in which the active materials are basically selected from among Atorvastatin, Rosuvastatin, Simvastatin, Lovastatin, Pravastatin, Pitavastatin, etc., and reacted with a nitric oxide releasing moiety OR chelated with Arginine, in fixed dose combination with Fibrates (Fenofibrate), Vitamin-D or its analogues, such as Calcitriol and substances to control Hyperhomocysteinemia, such as Folic Acid, Methylcobalamin and Pyridoxine. The inclusion in the composition of nitric oxide releasing moiety OR chelated with Arginine enables to enhance the endothelial

protection and thereby, a better endothelial function. The composition containing Fibrates are indicated as adjunctive therapy to reduce LDL-C, Triglycerides and Apo-B, besides increasing HDL-C, thereby providing synergistic action of lipid control. The composition containing Vitamin-D or its analogues, Cholecalciferol provides vascular endothelial protection in a dose dependent manner by inhibition of processes that are important for intimal and medial artery calcification such as pro-inflammatory cytokine release, adhesion molecule release, and proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells (Curr Opin Lipidol. 2007 Feb;18(1):41-46)
The formulation under development is a Fixed Dose Combination with additional active pharmaceutical ingredients that can help in preventing/treating Hyperhomocystenemia. More particularly, the Fixed dose formulation contains Methylcobalamin (Vitamin B12), Folic Acid and Pyridoxine (Vitamin B6). It's a very well established scientific basis that all the three ingredients act synergistically to trigger the optimal metabolism of plasma homocysteine through 5-Methyltetrahydrofolate -homocysteine methyltamsferase pathway. Additionally, Pyridoxine contributes to homocysteine excretion by acting

through the trans-sulfuration pathway to cysteine. Besides, Pyridoxine also facilitates the cellular balance of Sodium and Potassium, which can be considered as another important benefit of this formulation in cardiac diseases.
The said formulation is being developed using novel technology of either tablet-in-tablet or bi-layered tablet or if necessary in a unique Sequential Drug Delivery System SDDS)
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION:
Majority of the Patients suffering from lifestyle diseases, particularly, Hyperlipidemia, Diabetes Mellitus, Hypertension, Syndrome-X and high risk groups like Individuals with Family History or Obesity or Smoking are all vulnerable to long-term effects of changes in vascular endothelium, and thereby pre¬disposing them to several angiopathic diseases, including IHD, Stroke and Peripheral Vascular Diseases
Cholesterol Reducers such as Statins have become the mainstay in preventing or treating Atherogenic conditions. However, treating with Statins alone may not provide comprehensive endothelial protection. Several recent studies have proved beyond doubt that Nitric Oxide plays a

predominant role in endothelial function, by being a natural vasodilator
Fibrates (Fenofibrate) are indicated as adjunctive therapy to
diet to reduce elevated LDL-C, Total-C, Triglycerides, and
Apo B, and to increase HDL-C in adult patients with primary
hypercholesterolemia or
mixed dyslipidemia (Fredrickson Types Ha and lib). Lipid-altering agents should be used in addition to a diet restricted in saturated fat and cholesterol when response to diet and non-pharmacological interventions alone has been inadequate
Treatment of Hypertriglyceridemia
Fibrates (Fenofibrate) are also indicated as adjunctive therapy to diet for treatment of adult patients with hypertriglyceridemia (Fredrickson Types IV and V hyperlipidemia). Improving glycemic control in diabetic patients showing fasting chylomicronemia will usually reduce fasting triglycerides and eliminate chylomicronemia thereby obviating the need for pharmacologic intervention
Markedly elevated levels of serum triglycerides (e. g. > 2, 000 mg/dL) may increase the risk of developing pancreatitis. The effect of Fibrates (Fenofibrate) therapy on reducing this risk has not been adequately studied.
Patients with Atherogenic propensity are at increased risk due to Hyperhomocysteneimia. Preventing or treating Hyperhomocysteneimia cannot be achieved by Statins. Thus it is imperative to protect the patient against atherogenicity due to Hyperhomocysteneimia and proinflammatory cytokines.

While treating patients with history of Ischemic Diseases or potential to develop the same, focusing only on Hyperlipidemia or Dyslipidemia may not provide the complete protection against atherogenicity and the related diseases. The main objective of our approach is to provide a holistic approach to vascular protection than addressing only the cholesterol related vascular risk
Thus the novelty in the present formulation is the unique approach of protecting the vascular endothelium through several pathways, more importantly in a manner that can either work synergistically or complement each other
The relevant prior art methods, which teach adaptation of diverse delivery systems for sustained release of the active, are as follows.
United States Patent 7166638
Abstract:
Statin nitroderivatives having improved pharmacological activity and enhanced tolerability are described. They can be employed for treating and/or preventing several diseases, in particular coronary syndromes, neurodegenerative disorders as well as for reducing cholesterol levels.

DISCLOSURE OF INVENTION:
The lipid modifying activity of Cholesterol Reducers, particularly Statins is unparalleled. However, Total Vascular protection should not limit to just correcting the lipid profile. The therapeutic approach must encompass a larger canvas or rather holistic approach of preventing all the possible and potential causes of Atherogenesis in patients who already have altered lipid profile, wherein, Cholesterol Reducers are warranted. Our Novel approach is to tackle the Atherogenicity and Hypercholesterolemia through a multi-

pronged strategy, besides providing greater protection to the vascular endothelium
In order to achieve the above-mentioned objective(s), we have invented novel formulations that can prevent and treat problems like Dyslipidemia, Atherogenicity, and Endothelial Dysfunction and thereby achieve the objective of better quality of life in patients with Vascular Diseases
The compositions of the invented formulations are as follows
• Formulation containing Fenofibrate 130 mg combined with Atorvastatin 10 to 80 mg having nitric oxide releasing moiety or chelated with Arginine, in fixed dose combination with Vitamin D (200 - 400 I.U), Methylcobalamin 1500 meg, Pyridoxine 25 to 100 mg and Folic Acid 1 to 5 mg

• Formulation containing Fenofibrate 130 mg combined with Rosuvastatin 5 to 40 mg having nitric oxide releasing moiety or chelated with Arginine, in fixed dose combination with Vitamin D (200 - 400 I.U), Methylcobalamin 1500 meg, Pyridoxine 25 to 100 mg and Folic Acid 1 to 5 mg
• Formulation containing Fenofibrate 130 mg combined with Pitavastatin 5 to 40 mg having nitric oxide releasing moiety or chelated with Arginine, in fixed dose combination with Vitamin D (200 - 400 I.U), Methylcobalamin 1500 meg, Pyridoxine 25 to 100 mg and Folic Acid 1 to 5 mg
• Formulation containing Fenofibrate 130 mg combined with Pravavastatin 5 to 40 mg having nitric oxide releasing moiety or chelated with Arginine, in fixed dose combination with Vitamin D (200 - 400 I.U), Methylcobalamin 1500 meg, Pyridoxine 25 to 100 mg and Folic Acid 1 to 5 mg
