A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11896668B2) discloses a lyophilized pharmaceutical preparation that is directly soluble in a physiologically acceptable aqueous solution. The formulation includes melphalan flufenamide or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt, along with hydroxypropyl-ß-cyclodextrin and/or sulfobutylether-ß-cyclodextrin. The amount of cyclodextrins present is in the range of 10-100% by weight of melphalan flufenamide, with the formulation containing less than 0.5% by weight of organic solvents. Additionally, the preparation may consist solely of hydroxypropyl-ß-cyclodextrin or sulfobutylether-ß-cyclodextrin as excipients, with trace amounts of an organic solvent.
Furthermore, the patent claims cover various compositions involving the lyophilized pharmaceutical preparation and a physiologically acceptable solution, such as a glucose solution. The formulations may include different percentages of cyclodextrins and melphalan flufenamide, with the presence of trace amounts of organic solvents. The patent also specifies variations where hydroxypropyl-ß-cyclodextrin or sulfobutylether-ß-cyclodextrin are the sole excipients in the lyophilized pharmaceutical preparation, emphasizing their role in the solubility and stability of the formulation. Overall, the patent highlights the unique characteristics of the lyophilized pharmaceutical preparation and its potential applications in the field of pharmaceuticals.
