Description:
FIELD OF THE INVENTION 
     The present invention relates to extended release composition of 2-(2-Aminothiazol-4-yl)-N-[4-(2-{[(2R)-2-Hydroxy-2-Phenylethyl] Amino} Ethyl) Phenyl] Acetamide or salt thereof (Mirabegron or salt thereof) and process of manufacture thereof. Specifically, the present invention relates to extended release composition comprising Mirabegron and non-polymeric hydrophobic excipient as extended release agent. 
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     Overactive bladder (OAB) is a condition where there is a frequent feeling of needing to urinate to a degree that it negatively affects a person&#39;s life. The frequent need to urinate may occur during the day, at night, or both. If there is loss of bladder control then it is known as urge incontinence. More than 40% of people with overactive bladder have incontinence. Conversely, about 40% to 70% of urinary incontinence is due to overactive bladder. The cause of overactive bladder is unknown. Risk factors include obesity, caffeine, and constipation. Poorly controlled diabetes, poor functional mobility, and chronic pelvic pain may worsen the symptoms. Overactive bladder is characterized by symptoms like urgency, urinary frequency, nocturia, and urge incontinence. 
     Treatment for Overactive bladder includes nonpharmacologic methods such as lifestyle modification, bladder retraining, and pelvic floor muscle (PFM) exercise. A number of antimuscarinic drugs like darifenacin, hyoscyamine, oxybutynin, tolterodine, solifenacin, trospium, fesoterodine used to treat overactive bladder. β3 adrenergic receptor agonists mirabegron, vibegron are also used in the treatment of Overactive bladder. 
     Mirabegron is a beta-3 adrenergic agonist. The chemical name of mirabegron is 2 (2-aminothiazol-4-yl)-N-[4-(2-{[(2R)-2-hydroxy2 phenyl ethyl] amino} ethyl) phenyl] acetamide. Its empirical formula is C 21 H 24 N 4 O 2 S and a molecular weight is of 396.51. Mirabegron represented by structural formula (I) 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     Mirabegron is a white powder. It is practically insoluble in water. It is soluble in methanol and dimethyl sulfoxide. 
     Mirabegron Extended release tablet [25 mg &amp; 50 mg] is approved under the tradename Myrbetriq® in USA &amp; Betmiga® in Europe. The product is indicated for the treatment of Overactive bladder in adult patients with symptoms of urge urinary incontinence, urgency, and urinary frequency. 
     The Mirabegron Extended release tablet under the trade name Myrbetriq®/Betmiga® contain 25 mg or 50 mg of Mirabegron and the following inactive ingredients: polyethylene oxide, polyethylene glycol, hydroxypropyl cellulose, butylated hydroxytoluene, magnesium stearate, hypromellose, yellow ferric oxide, and red ferric oxide. 
     The marketed Myrbetriq®/Betmiga® tablet based on Oral Controlled Absorption System (OCAS) modified release platform. The OCAS is a hydrophilic gel-forming matrix tablet formulation, composed of active substance and Macrogols. This matrix tablet formulation designed for continuous drug release in the human GI tract. 
     The European patent EP2554168B1 discloses composition of extended release with different technologies. The said patent publication discloses, a sustained release hydrogel-forming formulation, a multi-layered formulation consisting of a drug core and a release-controlling layer, a gel formulation in which a plurality of gums is combined, an osmotic pump type formulation, a formulation utilizing a swelling polymer, a matrix formulation utilizing a water-soluble polymer, a modified release formulation with a coating membrane, and a matrix formulation utilizing an insoluble polymer. Further, EP2554168B1 discloses a matrix formulation utilizing an insoluble polymer, wherein the drug is uniformly dispersed in a water-insoluble polymer. Because the matrix consisting of the water-insoluble polymer can control the penetration of water into the formulation, the matrix formulation can modify the release of the drug from the formulation by controlling the dissolution rate of the drug in the matrix and the dispersion rate of the dissolved drug in the matrix. The said patent generically discloses water insoluble polymer like carnauba wax, cetyl alcohol, and glyceryl behenate. However, said patent does not teaches or discloses specific use of said polymers with mirabegron. Also does not provide any illustration with specific example to observe behavior of said excipients with mirabegron. 
     The U.S. Pat. No. 8,877,214 disclose the Mirabegron formulation of different technologies. It also covers drug core and a release-controlling layer, a gel formulation in which a plurality of gums combined, an osmotic pump type formulation, a formulation utilizing a swelling polymer, a matrix formulation utilizing a water-soluble polymer, a modified release formulation with a coating membrane, and a matrix formulation utilizing an insoluble polymer. 
     The European patent EP3292864 disclose a modified release tablet composition comprising Mirabegron and manufacture process thereof. In the description of said patent, generically discloses composition of the invention may also contain a lubricant. Lubricants are generally used in order to reduce sliding friction. Suitable lubricants to be used include magnesium stearate, calcium stearate, stearic acid, glyceryl behenate, hydrogenated vegetable oil, and glycerin fumarate. 
     Commercially available product and product known in the prior art for Mirabegron modified release tablet contains use of OCAS system. The OCAS is a hydrophilic gel-forming matrix tablet formulation, composed of active substance and Macrogols. Oral Controlled-Absorption System is a drug delivery technology enabling the gradual release of drug active through the tablet; however, applicant of the present invention prepared the extended release composition of Mirabegron without using the OCAS system and achieving the similar in vitro release profile as that of formulation prepared according to the OCAS system under the trade name Myrbetriq®/Betmiga®. 
     Accordingly, applicant of the present invention invented novel extended release composition of Mirabegron comprising non-polymeric hydrophobic excipients as release controlling agent, which is stable and provide optimum release of drug from the dosage form in the treatment of overactive bladder in adult patients with symptoms of urge urinary incontinence, urgency, and urinary frequency.

     Manufacturing Procedure 
     
         
         
           
             1) Dry mix Mirabegron, glyceryl dibehanate, lactose and crospovidone optionally with carnauba wax &amp; cetyl alcohol as per the formula using a high shear mixer. 
             2) Heat the blend at 80° C. to get a molten mass. 
             3) Cool the molten mass and mill it to get the granules of desired size. 
             4) Add lactose, butylated hydroxy toluene, crospovidone, colloidal anhydrous silica &amp; magnesium stearate to the granules obtained in step  3  and mix using a low shear mixer. 
             5) Compress the granules into a tablet. 
             6) Dissolve wax &amp; polyvinyl alcohol/povidone in solvent under continuous stirring. 
             7) Disperse talcum &amp; titanium dioxide under continuous stirring. 
             8) Spray the coating solution on tablets

     Manufacturing Procedure 
     
         
         
           
             1) Dry mix Mirabegron, lactose Monohydrate, Glyceryl dibehante, Sodium lauryl sulphate in High shear Mixer 
             2) Granulate the dry mix with granulation agent Povidone, BHT &amp; Suitable solvent 
             3) Heat the blend at 80° C. Temperature till to get molted mass 
             4) cool the molted mass and miled to get desired size of pellets 
             5) Add Mannitol, Colloidal anhydrous silica &amp; Magnesium stearate in low sheare mixer and mix 
             6) Compress the tablets 
             7) Coat the tablets
