ABSTRACT
Objectives:
To develop novel dual release prototype capsule formulations of rabeprazole and evaluation of pharmacokinetic properties relative to the reference product (Aciphex®) in Beagle dogs.Methods:
The dual release prototype formulations of rabeprazole were developed by preparing optimized mini-tablets core which was subsequently coated with barrier/enteric coating using standard excipients. Both novel prototype formulations were subjected for in vitro release and assay by HPLC-UV to assess long term stability. Single dose pharmacokinetic study used a single sequence three treatments crossover design. In Periods 1 and 2, four dogs received oral 20 mg dose of two prototype formulations. In Period 3, all dogs received a 20 mg oral dose of Aciphex® reference product. There was a 1-week washout time between two successive periods. A quantitative analysis of rabeprazole/sulfide metabolite in plasma samples was performed using a validated LC-MS/MS assay and PK parameters were estimated by non-compartmental analysis.Results:
The stability of the prototype formulations was confirmed over a period of 24 months with an acceptable assay and dissolution data. One of the novel prototype formulations showed 70% oral bioavailability relative to the reference product. Despite a 30% reduced bioavailability, this showed 1 h delay in peak concentration, longer plasma residence time of rabeprazole (up to 12 h) and longer apparent elimination half-life.Conclusions:
The use of a canine model has enabled the selection of a novel dual-release prototype formulation of rabeprazole for further clinical development.Palavras-chave
