PHARMACEUTICAL FORMULATIONS AND SYSTEMS FOR DELIVERY OF AN ANDROGENIC AGENT AND AN AROMATASE INHIBITOR WITH SUSTAINED MULTI-PHASIC RELEASE PROFILES AND METHODS OF USE
The present disclosure is directed formulations, delivery systems and/or methods of use that have a novel a sustained release multi-phasic concentration pattern that may be used, among other things, for reducing mammographic breast density and/or breast stiffness in warm-blooded animals. For example, the formulation may comprise: the administration of an effective amount of androgenic agent and an effective amount of an aromatase inhibitor to a subject that provides a sustained release multi-phasic concentration pattern in the blood of the subject over time as measured by serum concentration for the androgen and plasma concentration for the aromatase inhibitor and improves, amoung other things, breast tissue stabilization and/or increases of the levels of androgen receptor expression. The present disclosure is also directed to the use of an effective amount of an androgenic agent in combination with an effective amount of an aromatase inhibitor for the prophylaxis or treatment of autoimmune inflammatory mastitis (AIM) in a patient in need thereof. Autoimmune inflammatory mastitis includes the conditions of idiopathic inflammatory macromastia, plasma cell mastitis, granulomatous mastitis.
A61K 31/568 - Compounds containing cyclopenta[a]hydrophenanthrene ring systemsDerivatives thereof, e.g. steroids not substituted in position 17 beta by a carbon atom, e.g. oestrane, oestradiol substituted in positions 10 and 13 by a chain having at least one carbon atom, e.g. androstane, testosterone
A61K 9/00 - Medicinal preparations characterised by special physical form
There is described a method for prophylaxis or treatment of an aberrant breast cell pathology characterized by cell proliferation in a subject. The method comprises administering an effective amount of an androgenic agent in combination with an effective amount of an aromatase inhibitor to the subject providing an increase in concentration of the androgenic agent in blood serum to a level for increasing intramammary concentration of an androgen in the breast arising from action of 5α-reductase enzyme on the androgenic agent, the increased intramammary concentration of the androgen inducing suppression of c-Myc and/or mTOR expression or activity in the breast associated with a lower intramammary concentration of the androgen. The increase in the serum concentration of the androgenic agent and increase in intramammary concentration of the androgen is maintained for a predetermined period substantially without increasing concentration of the androgen in the serum of the subject. There is also described the use of the androgenic agent and aromatase inhibitor as above for reducing risk of breast cancer progressing to hormone resistant breast cancer, reducing risk of HER2-positive breast cancer becoming insensitive to targeted HER-2 anti-cancer drug therapy, and for inducing suppression of c-Myc and/or mTOR expression and/or activity. In embodiments, the androgenic agent can be testosterone and the androgen 5α-dihydrotestosterone (DHT).
