TMC240 is a very poorly soluble and poorly permeating HIV protease inhibitor. In order to enhance its oral bioavailability, a fast dissolving inulin-based solid dispersion tablet was developed. During the dissolution test in water (0.5% or 1.0% SLS), this tablet released at least 80% of TMC240 within 30 min, while a tablet with the same composition, but manufactured as physical mixture, released only 6% after 2 h. In a subsequent single-dose study in dogs (200 mg of TMC240), plasma concentrations of TMC240 remained below the lower limit of quantification (<1.00 ng/mL) in all animals (n = 3 per tested formulation), except in one dog receiving the inulin solid dispersion tablet (Cmax = 1.8 ng/mL, AUC0-7 h = 3.0 ng h/mL). In the latter treatment group, ritonavir co-administration (10 mg/kg b.i.d.) increased TMC240 exposure more than 30-fold (mean AUC0-7 h = 108 ng h/mL; Frel = 3588%). Exposure was also 16-fold higher than after TMC240 administration as PEG400 suspension in the presence of ritonavir (AUC0-7 h = 6.7 ng h/mL). The current data demonstrate that a solid dispersion of TMC240 in an inulin matrix allows considerable improvement in the release of poorly water-soluble TMC240, both in vitro in the presence of a surfactant and in vivo upon oral administration.
