Described is a composition comprising (a) a population of particles of an aripiprazole prodrug having a volume based particle size (Dv50) of less than 1000 nm and (b) at least one surface stabilizer comprising an adsorbed component which is adsorbed on the surface of the aripiprazole prodrug particles and a free component available for solubilisation of the aripiprazole prodrug. The surface stabilizer to prodrug ratio provides the optimal quantity of free surface stabilizer for the purposes of producing a lead-in formulation. Also described are methods of treatment using the aforementioned composition.

Aripiprazole prodrug composition

Described herein is a composition comprising: (a) a first population of particles of a first aripiprazole prodrug; and (b) a second population of particles of a second aripiprazole prodrug, different to the first aripiprazole prodrug. At least one of the first and second prodrug populations has a volume based particle size (Dv50) of less than about 1000 nm. Also described herein are methods of treatment using the aforementioned composition, and methods of making the aforementioned composition.

Compositions of multiple aripiprazole prodrugs

Described is a composition comprising (a) a population of particles of an aripiprazole prodrug having a volume based particle size (Dv50) of less than 1000 nm and (b) at least one surface stabilizer comprising an adsorbed component which is adsorbed on the surface of the aripiprazole prodrug particles and a free component available for solubilization of the aripiprazole prodrug. The surface stabilizer to prodrug ratio provides the optimal quantity of free surface stabilizer for the purposes of producing a lead-in formulation.
