  • Patent number: 11123331
    Abstract: An extended release oral dosage form comprising as active substance tacrolimus or a pharmaceutically active analogue thereof for a once daily immunosuppressive treatment of a patient in need thereof, preferable a kidney or liver transplant patient. The dosage form releases the active substance over an extended period of time. It also provides improved pharmacokinetic parameters due to an extended and constant in vivo release including substantial decreased peak concentrations, despite increased bioavailability, substantial extended times for maximal concentration, and higher minimal concentrations when compared with conventional immediate release dosage forms and a recent modified release tacrolimus dosage form.

  • Patent number: 11111400
    Abstract: Some embodiments are directed to a multimaterial powder used in the field of metallurgy and plasturgy. The multimaterial powder includes support particles having a median particle size distribution between 1 ?m and 100 ?m and functionalising particles having a median particle size distribution that is a factor of 10 to 1000 lower relative to the support particles. The powder is characterised in that the support particles and the functionalising particles form composite grains having a core-shell structure that each have a core formed by a support particle, and a shell, that covers between 10 and 100% of the surface of the support particle and which is formed by at least one surface layer of the functionalising particles.

  • Patent number: 11052074
    Abstract: The instant invention relates to a process for the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition in sustained-release tablet form comprising from 600 milligrams to 2400 milligrams of Pirfenidone (PFD), in such a way that the drug is bioavailable during an extended period of time of 12 hours from its administration. In this way, the anti-fibrotic and anti-inflammatory action of the drug Pirfenidone is optimized. Moreover, the instant invention offers advantages and a higher therapeutic efficacy compared to other pharmaceutical forms of Pirfenidone for oral administration and its therapeutic application in the regression of chronic renal failure secondary to primary glomerulosclerosis; it shows a better activity with regard to the reduction and/or regression of deleterious effects in breast capsular contracture observed after the surgical implantation of breast implants in humans and has an important anti-TNF-? and anti-TGF-?1 action for the treatment of hepatic fibrosis.

  • Patent number: 11000481
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a composite preparation with various dosage forms comprising mosapride and rabeprazole. The composite preparation prepared according to the present invention allows rapid release of a drug without deteriorating its release by an interaction between mosapride and rabeprazole, thus exhibiting an improved drug release rate and bioavailability, while having excellent product stability and being capable of significantly lowering the amount of the excipient. Accordingly, the composite preparation of the present invention can improve patients' drug compliance due to the size of its dosage form.
