Alkylated cyclodextrin compositions and processes for preparing and using the same

摘要

The present invention related to low-chloride alkylated cyclodextrin compositions, along with processes for preparing and using the same. The processes of the present invention provide alkylated cyclodextrins with low levels of drug-degrading agents and chloride.

主权项

1. A process for preparing an alkylated cyclodextrin composition comprising an alkylated cyclodextrin, the process comprising:
(a) mixing a cyclodextrin with an alkylating agent to form a reaction milieu comprising an alkylated cyclodextrin, one or more unwanted components, and one or more drug-degrading impurities; (b) conducting one or more separations to remove the one or more unwanted components from the reaction milieu to form a partially purified solution comprising the alkylated cyclodextrin and the one or more drug-degrading impurities, wherein the one or more separations are ultrafiltration, diafiltration, centrifugation, extraction, solvent precipitation, or dialysis; and (c) treating the partially purified solution with a phosphate-free activated carbon having a residual conductivity of 10 μS or less and producing the alkylated cyclodextrin.
