| 摘要 |
The present invention provides compositions containing clopidogrel, present as a free base or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and sulfoalkyl ether cyclodextrin (SAE-CD). The compositions can be liquid, suspension or solid compositions. They can be adapted for oral, peroral or parenteral administration. The SAE-CD serves to aid in dissolution and stabilization of the clopidogrel in aqueous media. The stability of clopidogrel against hydrolytic degradation, thermal degradation, and photolytic degradation are improved. SAE-CD provides improved results over other cyclodextrin derivatives. The SAE-CD-containing composition of clopidogrel can be provided in liquid form, solid form or as a reconstitutable powder. Both ready-to-use and concentrated liquid compositions can be prepared. The liquid composition is optionally available as a clear solution. The compositions herein can be administered perorally or parenterally and provide substantial pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic and/or therapeutic advantages over a tablet composition administered perorally and excluding SAE-CD. |

1. A method of improving the stability of clopidogrel in a composition comprising clopidogrel, the method comprising adding a sulfoalkyl ether cyclodextrin (SAE-CD) of Formula 1: wherein: n is 4, 5, or 6; R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, R7, R8, and R9 are each, independently, —O— or a —O—(C2-C6 alkylene)-SO3− group, wherein at least one of R1 to R9 is independently a —O—(C2-C6 alkylene)-SO3− group; and S1, S2, S3, S4, S5, S6, S7, S8, and S9 are each, independently, a pharmaceutically acceptable cation, to the composition, wherein the molar ratio of SAE-CD to clopidogrel is between 6:1 to 500:1. |
