Description:
OPHTHALMIC COMPOSITIONS C ROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION T his application claims priority to and the benefit of International Application No. PCT/US2021/017519, filed on February 11, 2021, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. D escription BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Ophthalmic compositions comprising the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) ketorolac tromethamine are marketed to treat eye irritation caused by allergies and inflammation occurring after cataract surgery. Similarly, ophthalmic compositions comprising corticosteroid drugs are marketed to treat certain eye conditions due to inflammation, injury, or surgery. Some patients use both drugs to treat irritation or inflammation symptoms. Combining both types of active ingredients into one stable composition to be administered would be more convenient for patients resulting in increased patient compliance. However, combining both types of active ingredients in a single composition is known to be challenging. Chemical incompatibility, stability, safety, and/or efficacy are often negatively affected, and the outcome is unpredictable. U S2013/0217657A1 discloses compositions for topical ophthalmic application, which include an aqueous mixture of steroidal and non-steroidal anti- inflammatory agents in a flowable mucoadhesive polymer, for treating inflammation and inflammatory conditions of the eye. The compositions have a viscosity in the range of about 1,000 to about 30,000 centipoise (cps) or millipascal-second (mPa·s) and gel in the eye after contacting the eye’s tear fluid and thus remain in place for prolonged periods of time to provide sustained release of the ophthalmic medicament. The disclosure emphasizes viscosities substantially lower than about 1,000 cps or mPa·s impede the ability to gel upon contact with tears and reduce ocular retention. However, highly viscous compositions may cause unwanted visual disturbances, including optical aberrations such as blurring the vision of the patient and may prevent homogeneous suspension and/or resuspension of solids present in the composition, leading to inaccurate dosing. Furthermore, preparations of specific compositions of US2013/0217657A1 revealed formation of insoluble precipitates of ketorolac tromethamine and chitosan that may reduce bioavailability of ketorolac tromethamine and accuracy of ketorolac tromethamine dosing in such highly viscous compositions. It is thus an object of the present invention to provide compositions comprising a ketorolac compound and a corticosteroid that are chemically and physically storage stable at room temperature. Such compositions have low viscosities and a ketorolac compound present in an essentially dissolved form. Further objects of the invention will be clear on the basis of the following description of the invention, examples, and claims. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION I n a first aspect, the invention relates to an aqueous liquid composition for ophthalmic administration, comprising therapeutically effective amounts of a ketorolac compound and of a corticosteroid, wherein the ketorolac compound is present in an essentially dissolved form; wherein the corticosteroid is present in the form of suspended particles; and wherein the composition exhibits an acidic pH of about 6.5 or less. In a further aspect, the present invention provides compositions as disclosed herein for use in the prevention or treatment of ocular inflammation. In yet a further aspect, the invention provides for methods for preventing or treating ocular inflammation in a subject, the methods comprising topically administering any of the compositions disclosed herein to an eye of said subject. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The objects are solved by the subject-matter of the independent claims. Advantageous embodiments are described in the dependent claims and subsequent description. Definitions^ Introductorily, some definitions of terms are given which are used throughout the description and claims. The definitions should be used to determine the meaning of the respective expressions unless the context requires a different meaning. The terms ‘a’ or ‘an’ do not exclude a plurality, i.e., the singular forms ‘a’, ‘an’ and ‘the’ should be understood as to include plural referents unless the context clearly indicates or requires otherwise. In other words, all references to singular characteristics or limitations of the present disclosure shall include the corresponding plural characteristic or limitation, and vice versa, unless explicitly specified otherwise or clearly implied to the contrary by the context in which the reference is made. The terms ‘a’, ‘an’ and ‘the’ hence have the same meaning as ‘at least one’ or as ‘one or more’ unless defined otherwise. For example, reference to ‘an ingredient’ includes mixtures of ingredients, and the like. The terms ‘about’ or ‘ca.’ will compensate for variability allowed for in the pharmaceutical industry and inherent in pharmaceutical products, such as differences in content due to manufacturing variation and/or time-induced product degradation.

The terms ‘essentially’, ‘about’, ‘approximately’, ‘substantially’ and the like in connection with an attribute or value include the exact attribute or the precise value, as well as any attribute or value typically considered to fall within a normal range or variability accepted in the technical field concerned. For example, ‘essentially free of water’ means that no water is deliberately included in a composition but does not exclude the presence of residual moisture. The term ‘essentially consisting of’ refers to compositions or dosage forms where no further components are added other than those listed. Nevertheless, very small amounts of other materials may potentially be present, such as material inherent impurities. Furthermore, when referring to e.g., ‘essentially consisting of A, B, C and optionally D.’ this means that no further components are added to a composition or dosage form other than A, B, C and D, with D being an optional component (i.e., not mandatory) in said composition or dosage form. The term ‘essentially free’ refers to a composition that contains less than a functional amount of the respective ingredient, typically less than 1 % by weight, preferably less than 0.1 % or even 0.01 %, and including zero percent by weight of the respective ingredient.

Compositions The invention provides aqueous liquid compositions for ophthalmic administration which are homogenous suspensions upon shaking and before administration. The compositions have viscosities suitable for ocular comfort and exhibit physical and chemical stability while stored. Polymers may increase the viscosity of eye drops and enhance adhesion to the mucus layer of tears. In practice, the optimal viscosity of an eye drop is often a compromise between comfort and vision requirements. Increased viscosity increases retention time but causes unwanted visual disturbances, including optical aberrations. In a first aspect, the invention provides aqueous liquid compositions for ophthalmic administration, comprising therapeutically effective amounts of a ketorolac compound and of a corticosteroid, wherein the ketorolac compound is present in an essentially dissolved form; wherein the corticosteroid is present in the form of suspended particles; and wherein the composition exhibits an acidic pH of about 6.5 or less. In some embodiments, the aqueous liquid compositions for ophthalmic administration comprise therapeutically effective amounts of a ketorolac compound and of a corticosteroid, wherein the ketorolac compound is present in an essentially dissolved form; wherein the corticosteroid is present in the form of suspended particles; wherein the composition exhibits an acidic pH of about 6.5 or less; and wherein the viscosity of the aqueous liquid composition is in the range from about 1 to about 60 centipoise (cps) or millipascal-second (mPa·s). Compositions with such low viscosities allow for homogeneous suspension of the suspended particles of the corticosteroid and less unwanted visual disturbances, including optical aberrations such as blurring of vision. In some embodiments, the ketorolac compound is ketorolac tromethamine. In some embodiments, the corticosteroid is a compound selected from dexamethasone, prednisolone, fluorometholone, betamethasone, difluprednate, triamcinolone, remexolone, loteprednol, and clobetasol. In some particular embodiments, the corticosteroid is a loteprednol compound. In other particular embodiments, the loteprednol compound is loteprednol etabonate. In other particular embodiments, the ketorolac compound is ketorolac tromethamine and the corticosteroid is loteprednol etabonate. In other particular embodiments, the compositions comprise any salt, solvate, ester, acetonide, or other hydrolysable prodrug, where applicable, of any compound present in the composition. The pharmaceutically acceptable analogues of such salts, solvates, esters, acetonides, or other prodrugs are also contemplated. In some embodiments, the concentration of ketorolac tromethamine in the composition is from about 0.2 wt.% to about 1.0 wt.%, and preferably from about 0.3 wt.% to about 0.6 wt.%. In other embodiments, the concentration of ketorolac tromethamine is about 0.45 wt.%, 0.5 wt.% or about 1.0 wt.%. In some embodiments, the concentration of loteprednol etabonate in the composition is from about 0.1 wt.% to about 1.2 wt.%, about 0.3 wt.% to about 1.2 wt.%, and about 0.5 wt.% or about 1.0 wt.%. In other embodiments, the concentration of loteprednol etabonate in the composition is preferably about 0.5 wt.% or about 1.0 wt.%. As used herein, compositions may be prepared in either wt.% or w/v %, and the units may be used interchangeably unless otherwise specifically specified, e.g., in the Tables disclosed herein. For example, when a range is expressed as “from about 0.2 wt.% to about 1.0 wt.%”, the range may also be expressed as “from about 0.2 w/v % to about 1.0 w/v%”. However, for the Tables where point references are used, the units are specifically specified in the first line of the table, e.g., Tables 1-3 include values in wt.% and Tables 4 and 7-8 include values in w/v%. In some embodiments, the composition exhibits an acidic pH of about 6.5 or less. In other embodiments, the composition exhibits a pH of about 6.0 or less. In other embodiments, the composition exhibits a pH of about 5.5 or less. In yet other embodiments, the composition exhibits a pH of about 5-6. In other particular embodiments, the composition exhibits a pH of about 5.5. Prior known, stable compositions comprising ketorolac compounds are typically formulated at higher pH such as about 7.0 to about 7.4. However, loteprednol compounds are typically unstable at higher pH levels greater than 6.5. Despite this apparent pH incompatibility, the inventors have unexpectedly found that it is possible to formulate compositions comprising a ketorolac compound and a loteprednol compound at lower pH values of about 6.5 or less. In some embodiments, the composition is essentially free of a buffer system. Buffer systems are well known in the art and are solutions that resist a change in pH when acid or base is added to it. Generally, buffer solutions contain a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid. Common buffer systems used in ophthalmic compositions include citrate, phosphate, Tris-HCl (Tris), and borate buffers. In other embodiments, the composition is essentially free of sodium chloride. In yet other embodiments, the composition is essentially free of poloxamer. In yet other embodiments, the composition is essentially free of a cross-linked, carboxy containing polymer. Such polymers include polycarbophil. Inclusion of cross- linked, carboxy containing polymers produces highly viscous gel compositions which would impede homogeneous suspension of solid particles and potentially result in inaccurate dosing. Furthermore, viscous gels may cause unwanted visual disturbances, including optical aberrations such as blurring of vision. In yet other embodiments, the composition is essentially free of chitosan. Compositions containing both chitosan and ketorolac form insoluble precipitates due to the positively charged chitosan forming an insoluble salt complex with the negatively charged ketorolac compound as shown in Examples 5 and 6 disclosed herein. Inclusion of chitosan in the compositions disclosed herein may reduce bioavailability of the ketorolac compound and accuracy of the ketorolac compound dosing due to formation of the insoluble precipitates. In some embodiments, the composition is further characterized in that it exhibits a surface tension in the range from about 20 to 70 dyne per centimeter (dyn/cm) or about 0.020 to 0.070 newton per meter (N/m), zeta potential in the range from about +/-10 to +/-40 millivolt (mV), and/or a viscosity in the range from about 1 to 60 centipoise (cps) or millipascal-second (mPa·s). In other embodiments, the composition is further characterized in that it exhibits a surface tension in the range from about 20 to 70 dyne per centimeter (dyn/cm) or about 0.020 to 0.070 newton per meter (N/m), and/or zeta potential in the range from about +/-10 to +/- 40 millivolt (mV). In yet other embodiments, the composition is further characterized in that it exhibits a viscosity in the range from about 1 to about 60 centipoise (cps) or millipascal-second (mPa·s). As used herein, viscosity refers to viscosity as measured by a Brookfield viscometer. Generally, the test solution is stored at room temperature for about 2 h prior to testing. The test solution is placed on the measurement chamber using a pipette, and a proper speed is selected for the spindle according to the expected viscosity of the sample. The Brookfield Viscometer determines viscosity by measuring the force to turn the spindle in the solution at a given rate. In some embodiments, the composition further comprises: (a) a polymeric viscosity-enhancing agent; (b) a non-ionic surfactant; and/or (c) a low-molecular weight polyol. In some embodiments, the polymeric viscosity-enhancing agent is a non-ionic, water-soluble polymer, and preferably selected from hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC), hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP). In some particular embodiments, the polymeric viscosity-enhancing agent is polyvinylpyrrolidone.

EXAMPLES Materials and Methods The following materials were used to prepare exemplary ophthalmic compositions described herein: ketorolac tromethamine, loteprednol etabonate, tyloxapol, poloxamer, carbomer, polyvinylpyrrolidone (povidone), ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), sodium ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (NaEDTA), glycerol, benzalkonium chloride (BAK), sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (NaCMC), 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin, sulfobutylether-β-cyclodextrin, hydrochloric acid, sodium hydroxide, and purified water. Viscosity is measured using a Brookfield viscometer. The test solution is stored at room temperature for about 2 h prior to testing. The test solution is placed on the measurement chamber using a pipette, and a proper speed is selected for the spindle according to the expected viscosity of the sample. The Brookfield Viscometer determines viscosity by measuring the force to turn the spindle in the solution at a given rate. Example 1: Screening Experiments Compositions shown in Table 1 and Table 2 were prepared with various surfactants and viscosity agents to evaluate the physicochemical stability of loteprednol etabonate and ketorolac combination suspensions over time. Tyloxapol, poloxamer, and mixtures of thereof were evaluated as surfactants. Polyvinylpyrrolidone, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, carbomer, and mixtures thereof were evaluated as viscosity agents.

Therefore, carbomer-containing compositions were not further pursued. Compositions F2 and F3 comprising a mixture of tyloxapol at 0.1 wt.% and poloxamer at 0.6 wt.% were physically unstable as evidenced from an increase in the particle size over time. Therefore, these compositions were not selected for further evaluation. Composition F5 comprising a mixture of tyloxapol at 0.3 wt.% and poloxamer at 0.6 wt.% as surfactant and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (NaCMC or sodium CMC) as the viscosity agent showed significant decrease of loteprednol and ketorolac assay values over time. Therefore, these compositions were not selected for further evaluation. Compositions F8 and F10 comprising tyloxapol without the presence of poloxamer, and mixture of povidone and NaCMC as viscosity agent achieved desired physical and chemical stability, re-suspendability, and low viscosity. These compositions were further evaluated for optimization. Example^2:^Preparation^of^Exemplary^Compositions^^ Based on the screening experiments of Example 1, compositions comprising a loteprednol compound, a ketorolac compound, tyloxapol, povidone, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, and additional components were further optimized and evaluated. A milling aid solution was prepared by dissolving povidone, tyloxapol, glycerol, and EDTA in purified water and filtering the solution using a 0.2 µm filter. Loteprednol etabonate powder was then dispersed into the milling aid solution using high shear mixing with an ULTRA-TURRAX. The loteprednol etabonate dispersion was transferred into a milling chamber (Dyno-Mill) which was then filled with beads (zirconium oxide beads). The suspension slurry was milled for a specific duration and discharged from the chamber. To ensure complete transfer from the milling chamber, the suspension slurry was diluted with a washing medium during transfer. The mixture of the milled suspension slurry, beads, and washing medium was collected and filtered using a dialysis membrane and vacuum pump. Additional washing medium was used for washing milling beads during the filtration process. The suspension slurry is typically irradiation sterilized before further mixing with the rest of the formulation ingredients. For micron size formulations, a milling step may not be necessary. Ketorolac tromethamine was dissolved in the milling aid solution to prepare a ketorolac tromethamine stock solution. Sodium carboxymethyl cellulose was dissolved in the milling aid solution to prepare a sodium carboxymethyl cellulose stock solution. Benzalkonium chloride may be added in the ketorolac tromethamine stock solution. The sodium carboxymethyl cellulose stock solution and ketorolac tromethamine stock solution were filtered through 0.2 µm filter and then mixed with the loteprednol etabonate suspension slurry until homogeneous. The pH was adjusted with 0.1 M HCl / 0.1 M NaOH. Specific exemplary compositions prepared as described above in Example 2 are summarized below in Table 3. Example 3: Preparation of Exemplary Compositions with Cyclodextrin Exemplary compositions further comprising cyclodextrin were prepared as in Example 2 above, with the addition of cyclodextrin as an additional component in the milling aid composition. Alternatively, cyclodextrin was added as a powder to the loteprednol etabonate suspension slurry after milling. Specific exemplary compositions prepared as described above in Example 3 are summarized below in Table 4.

Table3.FormulationCompositionsforPanelIStabilityStudy Formulation T able4.FormulationCompositionsforPanel IIStabilityStudy Formulation Example 4: Stability Studies of Exemplary Compositions The stability of the exemplary compositions was investigated using gradient high performance liquid chromatography analysis at different storage time points of 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, and 11 months. The amount of each active ingredient and related degradation substances, pH, osmolality, particle size distribution, and viscosity were measured for each composition at each time point. Ketorolac tromethamine (KT) exhibited stability in all compositions. The d egradation of loteprednol etabonate (LE) showed a pH dependency, thus pH was optimized for loteprednol etabonate stability. The results of the Panel I stability studies for the compositions shown in Table 3 are summarized in Table 5. The suspension slurry was not irradiation sterilized in the preparation of Panel 1 formulations. In Tables 5 and 6, below, the term “RS” refers to “related substance”; “LOQ” refers to “Limit of Quantification; “RRT” refers to “relative retention time”; and LR refers to “loteprednol etabonate related”.

Example 5: Investigation of Chitosan as Additive Chitosan was investigated as an additive in an exemplary embodiment of the compositions disclosed herein. The composition of this example included the following components. Table7.Componentsof ChitosanContainingComposition I ngredients, w/v % EY-05 BTV300 C19 G iven that chitosan is positively charged, and ketorolac compounds, NaCMC, and NaEDTA are negatively charged in aqueous solutions, it was hypothesized that chitosan may form insoluble precipitates with one or more of these components due to formation of insoluble salt complexes. In this exemplary embodiment, loteprednol etabonate was excluded to assure the visibility of potential precipitates formed during the preparations. T wo distinct approaches were investigated. In a first experiment, a solution of fully dissolved chitosan was added to a clear, colorless solution of NaCMC and NaEDTA, resulting in formation of white flocculant precipitate; and a solution having a pH of 4.1. Chitosan is fully soluble at pH 4, suggesting an incompatibility of chitosan with NaCMC and/or NaEDTA. In a second experiment, a solution of fully dissolved chitosan was added to a clear, colorless solution of glycerine, tyloxapol, PVP, HP-b- cyclodextrin, and ketorolac tromethamine having a pH 5.1. Upon addition of the two solutions, white flocculates formed immediately with a resulting solution of pH 3.8. When the pH 3.8 solution containing the white flocculates is pH adjusted to the final formulation of pH 5.5, the white flocculates persist. If the preparation is repeated excluding ketorolac tromethamine, no precipitates form. Moreover, chitosan is fully soluble at pH 3.8. Therefore, the observed white precipitates are a chitosan / ketorolac tromethamine insoluble complex. Precipitate formation would reduce the bioavailability of ketorolac and accuracy of ketorolac dosing, highlighting the incompatibility of chitosan in such compositions. Example 6: Comparative Studies with Chitosan Containing GelCompositions Chitosan containing compositions of ketorolac tromethamine and loteprednol etabonate were prepared using the methods disclosed in US2013/0217657A1, specifically compositions 7 and 8 of Table 6. The compositions included the following components: Table8.Componentsof ComparativeCompositions 7and8 I ngredients, w/v %  Composition 7 Composition 8 Compositions 7 and 8 were prepared by combining polycarbophil, sodium chloride, and sodium edetate in water and stirring for 0.5 hours. The composition was autoclaved at 121 °C for 45 minutes and cooled to room temperature to produce a white opaque suspension. An aqueous solution of chitosan was prepared using hydrochloric acid and added into the polycarbophil suspension to produce a free flowing, white opaque suspension. Mannitol, Poloxamer 407, and ketorolac tromethamine were dissolved in water to form a clear colorless solution, and loteprednol etabonate was added to the solution by dry particle addition to form a white suspension. The mannitol, poloxamer 407, ketorolac tromethamine, and loteprednol etabonate suspension was added to the polycarbophil, sodium chloride, sodium edetate, chitosan suspension and the pH adjusted to 6.8 to form the final formulation. The final formulation was a white, smooth gel with a viscosity of 7921 mPa·s or cps as measured by Brookfield viscometer. Since loteprednol etabonate was present as a solid dispersion in compositions 7 and 8, it was not possible to visually observe if chitosan and ketorolac tromethamine formed insoluble precipitates as was observed in Example 5, above. In order to investigate the hypothesis, compositions 7 and 8 were prepared as described above, but excluding loteprednol etabonate. In a first experiment, chitosan was added to a clear, colorless solution of mannitol and poloxamer 407. In a second experiment, chitosan was added to a clear, colorless solution of mannitol, poloxamer 407, and ketorolac tromethamine. Upon addition of chitosan to the clear, colorless solution of mannitol and poloxamer 407, a clear colorless solution of pH 3.9 formed. In contrast, when chitosan was added to clear, colorless solutions of mannitol, poloxamer 407, and ketorolac tromethamine, white suspensions of pH 4.7 (composition 7, high ketorolac concentration) and pH 4.6 (composition 8, low ketorolac concentration) formed. The compositions 7 and 8 were then pH adjusted to 6.8 to form the final formulation. Both compositions contain white flocculates deriving from the chitosan / ketorolac salt complex. Therefore, both compositions 7 and 8 do not comprise a ketorolac compound in an essentially dissolved form.
