Patent number: 11896566Abstract: This invention relates to a naproxen formulation suitable for encapsulation into a soft gel dosage unit by increasing the stability, concentration, and bioavailability of naproxen. Fill formulations of the invention may include other active pharmaceutical ingredients and combinations of two or more active pharmaceutical ingredients. This invention also provides for adjusting pH values of fill formulations without additional process steps. A process for increasing the achievable concentration of an active NSAID pharmaceutical ingredient, such as naproxen, relative to fill composition for dosage units is also provided. The highly concentrated formulation of this invention permits a reduction in the fill volume or dosage unit size, or an increase in concentration of the active pharmaceutical ingredient per dosage form. The invention also relates to a formulation of optimal stability suitable for supporting a fill composition compatible with the soft gel dosage unit.Type: GrantFiled: September 26, 2019Date of Patent: February 13, 2024Assignee: Catalent Ontario LimitedInventors: John Lopez, Peter Draper, Sankalp Vashishtha, Nancy Klassen, Christina Armstrong

Publication number: 20150339314Abstract: Increasing data storage efficiency includes receiving an amendment to a set of data objects. The amendment includes new or changed content relative to an earlier version of the set of data objects. The amendment includes one or more data lookup tables. The set of data objects includes data blocks associated with the data lookup tables. The set of data objects is examined to identify data ranges (e.g., byte ranges) that are not referenced in the set of data lookup tables of the amendment. In data ranges that are identified as not referenced in the data lookup tables, the data is replaced with data that is more compressible (for example, the range may be filled with zero values). The set of data objects may be compacted by compressing data including the identified unreferenced data ranges.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 25, 2014Publication date: November 26, 2015Inventors: Brian James Collins, Stephen Peter Draper

Publication number: 20070224261Abstract: A drug formulation dosage is provided that includes an oral medication capsule inclusive of the eutectic liquid at room temperature. The eutectic liquid includes a pharmaceutically active substance that exists as a solid in pure form at room temperature along with a biologically tolerated compound that forms a eutectic liquid with the active substance so as to render the substance and the compound as the eutectic liquid. The resulting drug formulation dosage has a high degree of storage stability. Natural volatile oils represent a class of biologically tolerated compounds well suited for the formation of a eutectic liquid sealed within an oral medication capsule. Three or more component eutectics are also appreciated to be operative herein to form stable eutectic liquids with pharmaceutically active substances.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 12, 2007Publication date: September 27, 2007Inventor: Peter Draper
