Abstract: A modified release composition comprising cyclosporin A for oral administration. The composition may comprise a core and a modified release coating, wherein the core comprises a hydrogel-forming polymer matrix and cyclosporin A. The composition may be in the form of a minibead. The compositions provide a pharmacokinetic profile and dissolution profile which provides release of cyclosporin A in the lower GI tract whilst minimising systemic exposure. Also disclosed are uses of the composition in the treatment of conditions affecting the lower GI tract, particularly the colon.

Abstract: The present invention relates to new stable pharmaceutical compositions containing 2-[(4S)-8-fluoro-2-[4-(3-methoxyphenyl)piperazin-1-yl]-3-[2-methoxy-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-4H-quinazolin-4-yl]acetic acid and sodium ions that are essentially free from complexing solubilizing agents, such as PEG, cyclodextrin, lysine, arginine, in particular HPBCD. The invention further relates to methods of preparation of said pharmaceutical compositions. The invention further relates to use of said pharmaceutical compositions in methods of treatment of and/or as a prophylactic for illnesses, particularly its use as an antiviral, preferably against cytomegaloviruses.
