Description:FIELD OF THE INVENTION:
The present invention relates to an ophthalmic composition of Brimonidine, Timolol and Brinzolamide or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients. More particularly, the present invention relates to an ophthalmic composition of Brimonidine Tartrate, Timolol Maleate and Brinzolamide and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION:
Alpha-2 agonist or beta blocker or carbonic anhydrase inhibitor are either in monotherapy or in double combinations are approved for the treatment of elevated of intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with ocular hypertension or open-angle glaucoma.
Brimonidine is a highly selective alpha-2 agonist. It lowers intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering by reducing aqueous humor production and increasing uveoscleral outflow.
Timolol is a nonselective β-adrenergic blocker that reduces intraocular pressure by decreasing aqueous secretion with little effect on episcleral venous pressures, facility of outflow or uveoscleral outflow.
Brinzolamide is a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor. It is indicated for the treatment of elevated intraocular pressure in patients with ocular hypertension or open-angle glaucoma.
Brinzolamide and Brimonidine Tartrate is approved in the USA under brand name Simbrinza® (brinzolamide/brimonidine tartrate ophthalmic suspension 1%/0.2%) for the reduction of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. The recommended dose is one drop of Simbrinza® in the affected eye(s) three times daily.
In the fixed-dose combination (FDC) of Brinzolamide and Brimonidine, the addition of a third agent, which is a beta-blocker (often timolol), can further contribute to the reduction of intraocular pressure (IOP) in glaucoma.
Brimonidine and Timolol is approved in the USA under brand name Combigan® (brimonidine tartrate/timolol maleate ophthalmic solution 0.2%/0.5%,) for the reduction of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. The recommended dose is one drop of Combigan® in the affected eye(s) two times daily.
US patent application US2009/0069345 (US’345) discloses ophthalmic composition of Timolol maleate, Dorzolamide hydrochloride and Brimonidine tartrate, which further contains a combination of a tonicity agent, a buffer agent and a solubilizing agent and a preservative agent. The US’345 discloses the said ophthalmic composition is for the treatment of ocular hypertension.
PCT Application WO2013/175285 (WO’285) discloses the ophthalmic composition of Brinzolamide in the suspension form. Further WO’285 discloses sterile ophthalmic suspension comprising brinzolamide, polymer, surfactant and one or more excipients and optionally a beta blocker such as atenolol, Timolol, Betaxolol, Arteolol and/or alpha adrenergic agonist such as Brimonidine, Epinephrine.
US Patent application US 2017/0304316 (US’316) discloses ophthalmic formulation comprising carbonic anhydrase inhibitor Brinzolamide alone, in an aqueous solution or a combination of two intraocular pressure (IOP) reducing and/or glaucoma treatment agents.
US Patent No. US 9,421, 265 (US’265) discloses ophthalmic composition of Brinzolamide and Brimonidine with, boric acid and two polyols.
US Patent no. US 7,030,149 (US’149) disclose ophthalmic composition of Brimonidine and Timolol maleate with buffer and preservative.
None of the cited prior arts mentioned above discloses the stable, ophthalmic composition of Brimonidine tartrate, Timolol maleate and Brinzolamide in the suspension form.
It is well known fact that, patients with advanced glaucoma or elevated intraocular pressure might not reach a treatment target with monotherapy or with dual combinations of alpha-2 agonist or beta blocker or carbonic anhydrase inhibitor. Either they require a frequent administration of single of double combination products or require an add on therapy with other antiglaucoma agent like prostaglandins.
There are tremendous efforts are required to develop an stable ophthalmic suspension composition of three active ingredients due to their solubility and compatibility with other active agents.
After extensive experimentation, the inventors of present invention have come up with an improved and stable ophthalmic composition with alpha-2 agonist, beta blocker and carbonic anhydrase inhibitor (Brimonidine, Timolol and brinzolamide) in a single dosage form with minimum use of excipients with mixing and homogenization process. The ophthalmic composition of the present invention has an advantage over the prior approved products with respect to
Enhanced Efficacy: The triple combination product with drugs of different mechanisms of action can be more effective than using a single drug. This is especially true for patients who may not respond well to monotherapy or who require additional pressure reduction.
Convenience: A triple combination drug simplifies treatment for patients by providing multiple mechanisms of action in a single eye drop. This can lead to better adherence to the treatment regimen, as patients only need to use one medication instead of multiple separate eye drops.
Reduced Side Effects: In some cases, using lower doses of each individual medication in a combination can reduce the potential for side effects compared to using higher doses of a single drug.
