PHARMAZEUTISCHE ZUSAMMENSETZUNGEN MIT IMATINIB UND EINEM FREISETZUNGSVERZÖGERER

摘要

Sustained release pharmaceutical compositions that contain imatinib or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The pharmaceutical compositions further contain a release retardant, for example a water soluble, a water swellable and/or a water insoluble polymer. The present invention also features a particularly useful process of making such sustained release pharmaceutical compositions by using an extruder.
