Embodiments of the disclosure relate generally to formulations, methods of treatment, kits, and dosage forms for treating inflammatory disorders, including topic dermatitis, cancer, the formulations comprising an active pharmaceutical ingredient. The formulation provided comprises granules, wherein the granules comprise: micronized active ingredient; one or more granulation binders; one or more fillers; one or more disintegrants; and one or more antioxidants. In one embodiment, the methods of treatment include orally administering the active ingredient to a subject suffering from atopic dermatitis, where the active ingredient, is in an amount of about 20 mg to about 80 mg.

Formulations, methods, kits, and dosage forms for treating atopic dermatitis and for improved stability of an active pharmaceutical ingredient

The present disclosure provides floating gastroretentive compositions comprising a multilayer core comprising 1) a pull layer containing liothyronine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, an acid, and a gas-generating agent; and 2) a push layer. Each of the pull layer and the push layer comprises a swellable water-soluble hydrophilic polymer. The composition further comprises a permeable elastic membrane covering at least a portion of the multilayer core and containing at least one orifice in fluid communication with the pull layer. The permeable elastic membrane comprises a copolymer of ethyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate, and trimethylammonioethyl methacrylate chloride. The composition provides sustained release of liothyronine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

Sustained release compositions comprising liothyronine

Self-regulating, osmotic, floating gastroretentive compositions that provide extended release, delayed release, and/or delayed extended release of active pharmaceutical agents, as well as, optionally, immediate release of the same or a different active pharmaceutical agent, are provided here. The gastroretentive compositions of the disclosure comprise a swellable, extended release, multilayer core comprising a push layer and a pull layer; a water-insoluble permeable elastic membrane surrounding the multilayer core; and an orifice (e.g., a laser-drilled orifice, a manually drilled orifice) on the pull-layer side of the dosage form. The gastric retention of the composition is controlled by rapid floating of the composition and expansion of the membrane. The rapid swelling of the composition to a size greater than the size of the pyloric sphincter is due to the presence of an osmogen, adequate membrane permeability that provides for fast generation of COfrom a gas-generating agent(s), and adequate membrane elasticity that provides for rapid expansion of the membrane. The hydrated core, especially the polyethylene oxide in the push layer, and the permeable elastic membrane with an orifice (1) provide extended release of the active pharmaceutical agent, and (2) maintain the dosage form at a size suitable for gastric retention. The self-regulating composition collapses, or breaks into pieces, after releasing at least about 80% of the drug from the composition.

Self-regulating osmotic gastroretentive drug delivery systems

The present disclosure provides extended release trihexyphenidyl compositions suitable for once- or twice-daily administration. The compositions comprise a core comprising organic acid that is coated with at least one drug layer comprising trihexyphenidyl hydrochloride, and a functional coat over the drug-layered core. The extended release compositions of the disclosure provide extended release of trihexyphenidyl hydrochloride, with reduced C, and a C:Cratio of &#x2265;0.4, while maintaining a therapeutically effective concentration for a period of at least about 16 hours. The compositions of the disclosure improve solubility of trihexyphenidyl hydrochloride, at a pH of greater than or equal to 5, to maintain its minimum effective concentration at such pH. In certain embodiments, the compositions of the disclosure comprise an IR drug layer to provide extended release with a minimal lag time, while maintaining a therapeutically effective concentration of trihexyphenidyl hydrochloride for a period of at least about 16 hours.

Extended release compositions comprising trihexyphenidyl

The present disclosure provides programmable osmotic-controlled oral compositions providing delayed extended release of a therapeutically acceptable amount of methylphenidate hydrochloride. The programmable osmotic-controlled compositions of the disclosure provide a lag time that is independent of the presence or absence of food, type of food, pH, gastric emptying, and volume of gastric fluid. The compositions of the disclosure can be programmed to provide a desired and precise lag time, and release drug, after the lag time, at a rhythm that matches the circadian rhythm of an individual being treated to optimize therapeutic outcome and minimize side effects.

Delayed release methylphenidate compositions

The present disclosure provides extended release trihexyphenidyl compositions suitable for once- or twice-daily administration. The compositions comprise a core comprising at least one organic acid; at least one drug layer comprising trihexyphenidyl or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof over the core; and a functional coat over the drug-layered core. The compositions of the disclosure provide extended release with reduced C, a C:Cratio of &#x2265;0.4, Fluctuation Index of &#x2264;1, while providing and maintaining at least a minimum therapeutically effective plasma concentration, of the trihexyphenidyl or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof for at least about 10 hours. The compositions of the disclosure improve solubility of the trihexyphenidyl or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof at a pH of greater than or equal to 5, to provide and maintain at least a minimum effective concentration of the drug at such pH.

The present disclosure provides programmable osmotic-controlled oral compositions providing delayed release of a therapeutically acceptable amount of a drug. The programmable osmotic-controlled compositions of the disclosure provide a lag time that is independent of the presence or absence of food, type of food, pH, gastric emptying, gastric motility, and volume and viscosity of gastric fluid. The compositions of the disclosure can be programmed to provide a desired and precise lag time, and release drug, after the lag time, at a rhythm, e.g., that matches the human circadian rhythm of a condition's symptoms and/or of the individual being treated in the application of the therapy to optimize therapeutic outcome and minimize side effects.
