Herboth R, Lyubartsev AP. Exploring Carbamazepine Polymorph Crystal Growth in Water by Enhanced Sampling Simulations. ACS OMEGA 2024; 9:36718-36731.

Abstract
In this work, the polymorphism of the active pharmaceutical ingredient carbamazepine (CBZ) was investigated by using molecular dynamics simulations with an enhanced sampling scheme. A single molecule of CBZ attaching to flat surfaces of different polymorphs was used as a model for secondary nucleation in water. A novel approach was developed to compute the free energy profile characterizing the adsorption of molecules with orientation aligned with the crystal structure of the surface. The distribution of states that showed alignment was used to rescale the adsorption free energy to include only the contribution that is consistent with crystal growth. The resulting free energy surfaces showed favorable thermodynamics for the most stable form, Form III and the second most stable form, Form I. The primary crystallization product, a dihydrate, was found to be less favorable, implying a nonclassical crystallization pathway. We suggest that a major contribution determining the energetics is the hydrophobicity of the surface. This thermodynamic ranking provides valuable information about the molecular pathways of polymorph growth and will further contribute to the understanding of the crystallization process of CBZ, which is imperative since polymorph formation can alter the physical properties of a drug significantly.

Abstract
Emerging contaminants are produced globally at high rates and often ultimately find their way into the aquatic environment. These include substances contained in anti-seizure medication (ASM), which are currently appearing in surface waters at increasing concentrations in Germany. Unintentional and sublethal, chronic exposure to pharmaceuticals such as ASMs has unknown consequences for aquatic wildlife. Adverse effects of ASMs on the brain development are documented in mammals. Top predators such as Eurasian otters (Lutra lutra) are susceptible to the bioaccumulation of environmental pollutants. Still little is known about the health status of the otter population in Germany, while the detection of various pollutants in otter tissue samples has highlighted their role as an indicator species. To investigate potential contamination with pharmaceuticals, Eurasian otter brain samples were screened for selected ASMs via high-performance liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. Via histology, brain sections were analyzed for the presence of potential associated neuropathological changes. In addition to 20 wild otters that were found dead, a control group of 5 deceased otters in human care was studied. Even though none of the targeted ASMs were detected in the otters, unidentified substances in many otter brains were measured. No obvious pathology was observed histologically, although the sample quality limited the investigations.

Exposing Hidden Conformations of Carbamazepine Appearing Due to Interaction With the Solid Phase by 2D 1H- 15N HMBC NMR Spectroscopy. J Pharm Sci 2021; 110:1533-1539. [PMID: 33421434 DOI: 10.1016/j.xphs.2021.01.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2020] [Revised: 12/22/2020] [Accepted: 01/03/2021] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
Two-dimensional 1H-15N HMBC NMR spectra of the well-known anticonvulsant carbamazepine dissolved in different organic solvents, recorded on an NMR spectrometer prove the existence of hidden conformers in saturated solutions. Obtained conformer distribution arises due to the presence of the solid phase in saturated solution. A weak influence of ring currents was revealed for different molecular conformations of carbamazepine dissolved in a saturated solution, which provides a simple approach to discovering hidden conformations. Hidden conformers were found in three different solvents: dimethyl sulfoxide, chloroform, and dichloromethane.

Abstract
The present study aims to evaluate the efficacy of selenium (Se) alone or combined with carbamazepine (CBZ) against the adverse effects induced by the chemoconvulsant pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) in the cortex of adult male rats. Electrocorticogram (ECoG) and oxidative stress markers were implemented to evaluate the differences between treated and untreated animals. Animals were divided into five groups: control group that received i.p. saline injection, PTZ-treated group that received a single i.p. injection of PTZ (60 mg/kg) for induction of seizures followed by a daily i.p. injection of saline, Se-treated group that received an i.p. injection of sodium selenite (0.3 mg/kg/day) after PTZ administration, CBZ-treated group that received orally CBZ (80 mg/kg/day) after PTZ administration, and combination (Se plus CBZ)-treated group that received an oral administration of CBZ (80 mg/kg/day) followed by an i.p. injection of sodium selenite (0.3 mg/kg/day) after PTZ administration. Quantitative analyses of the ECoG indices and the neurochemical parameters revealed that Se and CBZ have mitigated the adverse effects induced by PTZ. The main results were decrease in the number of epileptic spikes, restoring the normal distribution of slow and fast ECoG frequencies and attenuation of most of the oxidative stress markers. However, there was an increase in lipid perioxidation marker in combined treatment of CBZ and Se. The electrophysiological and neurochemical data proved the potential of these techniques in evaluating the treatment's efficiency and suggest that supplementation of Se with antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) may be beneficial in ameliorating most of the alterations induced in the brain as a result of seizure insults and could be recommended as an adjunct therapy with AEDs.

Abstract
Carbamazepine (CBZ) is mainly metabolized by CYP3A4 into carbamazepine-10,11-epoxide (CBZE). Cannabidiol (CBD) is a potent inhibitor of the CYP3A family. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of acute and chronic administration of CBD on the pharmacokinetics of CBZ and CBZE. Male SD rats were assigned into four acute and four chronic groups: control (CBZ only), positive control (ketoconazole), low-dose cannabidiol (l-CBD), and high-dose cannabidiol (h-CBD). Acute CBD groups were administered a single dose of CBD, while chronic CBD groups were given multiple doses of CBD for 14 days (q.d.) before CBZ administration. Plasma samples had been collected and analyzed for CBZ and CBZE, then their noncompartmental pharmacokinetic parameters before and after CBD administration were determined. The co-administration of a single l-CBD has significantly increased CBZ's [Formula: see text] by 53.1%. Furthermore, CBZE kinetics showed a significant decrease in Cmax by 31.8%. Acute h-CBD caused similar effects on CBZ's [Formula: see text] with 40.4% significant decrease in CBZE's Cmax, when compared to the control. Chronic h-CBD caused a significant decrease in CBZ's Cmax and [Formula: see text] by 75.3% and 65.7%, respectively. Besides, [Formula: see text] and Cmax of CBZE significantly decreased by 75.3% and 78.3%, respectively. These results demonstrated that the pharmacokinetics of CBZ and CBZE had been significantly affected by CBD. When CBD has been administered as a single dose, the effect is believed to be mainly caused by the inhibition of CBZ metabolism through CYP3A. The effect of chronic administration of CBD probably includes kinetic pathways other than the inhibition of CYP3A-dependent pathways. Graphical abstract.

Abstract
Two new crystal forms of tasimelteon TSM-I and TSM-II were reported here. Crystallization of crude in methanol or mixture solvent results in anhydrate crystal form (TSM-I) and hemihydrate crystal form (TSM-II) respectively. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first report about crystalline form of tasimelteon. The two crystal forms were exhaustively characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, Raman Spectra, Differential Scanning Calorimetry, Thermogravimetric Analysis, Solid State NMR Spectroscopy and Powder X-ray diffraction and Single Crystal X-ray Diffraction. Furthermore, the pharmacokinetic behavior of TSM-I and TSM-II in rats were measured. We found that though TSM-II is considerably more soluble than TSM-I under water (pH = 7.0) and pH 1.2 buffer conditions, the bioavailability of TSM-Ivia oral administration was better compared to that of TSM-II.

Abstract
The previous investigation has proved that their existed pharmacokinetic difference between the different crystal forms of the polymorphic drugs after oral administration. However, no systemic investigations have been made on the change of this pharmacokinetic difference, resulted either from the physiological or from the pathological factors. In this paper, we used polymorphic nimodipine (Nim) as a model drug and investigated the effect of age difference (2- and 9-month old) on the pharmacokinetics after oral delivery in rats. As the results shown, for L-form of Nim (L-Nim), the AUC0-24 h in 2-month-old rats was 343.68±47.15 ng·h/mL, which is 23.36% higher than that in 9-month-old rats. For H-form of Nim (H-Nim), the AUC0-24 h in 2-month-old rats was 140.91±19.47 ng·h/mL, which is 54.64% higher than that in 9-month-old rats. The AUC0-24 h ratio between H-Nim and L-Nim was 2.44 in 2-month-old rats and 3.06 in 9-month-old rats. Since age difference could result in unparallelled change of the absorption and bioavailability of the polymorphic drugs, the results in this experiment are of value for further investigation of crystal form selection in clinical trials and rational clinical application of the polymorphic drugs.

Abstract
Excipients or formulation variables have often been exploited to improve stability, modify release, or improve physicochemical properties of dosage forms. In pharmaceutical field, it is generally expected that excipients work at macromolecular level where they might influence the crystal structure of a solid. These polymers/colloidal particles may modify the rate and direction of crystal growth. It has also been observed, that different polymorphic crystals exhibit different colors on exposure to same colorant, predominantly due to difference in surface pH of different crystal lattices. Apart from physicochemical affect, crystal habit also influences pharmacokinetic parameters of the dosage form. Crystals with smaller size or lower lattice energy have shown to exhibit higher bioavailability with faster rate of release.

Abstract
Carbamazepine (CBZ), a widely used anticonvulsant drug, can crystallize and exhibits four polymorphic forms and one dihydrate. Anhydrous CBZ can spontaneously absorb water and convert to the hydrate form whose different crystallinity leads to lower biological activity. The present study was concerned to the possibility of recovering the hydrated form by heating. The thermal behavior of spontaneously hydrated carbamazepine was investigated by TG/DTG-DTA and DSC in dynamic atmospheres of air and nitrogen, which revealed that the spontaneous hydration of this pharmaceutical resulted in a Form III hydrate with 1.5 water molecules. After dehydration, this anhydrous Form III converted to Form I, which melted and decomposed in a single event, releasing isocyanic acid, as shown by evolved gas analysis using TG-FTIR. Differential scanning calorimetry analyses revealed that Form III melted and crystallized as Form I, and that subsequent cooling cycles only generated Form I by crystallization. Solid state decomposition kinetic studies showed that there was no change in the substance after the elimination of water by heating to 120 °C. Activation energies of 98 ± 2 and 93 ± 2 kJ mol-1 were found for the hydrated and dried samples, respectively, and similar profiles of activation energy as a function of conversion factor were observed for these samples.

Abstract
Creatine phosphate sodium (CPS) salt is a first-line cardiovascular drug for severe diastolic heart failure. The drug exists in different hydrate forms. The marketed drug form was determined as CPS·4.5H2 O (H1); however, the reference standard was supplied as CPS·6H2 O (H2). In this work, we present two newly identified hydrate forms: a thermodynamically stable low hydrate form, CPS·1.5H2 O (H3), and a pressure-sensitive transit form, CPS·7H2 O (H4). The hydrate forms were discovered through a comprehensive solid-state screening experiment and fully characterized using a range of analytical techniques including X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), FTIR, Raman spectroscopy, hot-stage microscopy (HSM), thermogravimetric analysis, and differential scanning calorimetry. Stability tests revealed that H3 was the most stable hydrate under thermal stimulation. H4 is a pressure-sensitive hydrate and easily transforms to H2 and then H1 upon grinding. The form transformation process was closely monitored using the HSM, variable-temperature XRPD (VT-XRPD), and VT-Raman spectroscopy techniques. Specifically, the transformation of H4 to H1 is characterized in a single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformation process. The newly discovered hydrate form H3 has superior physicochemical properties than the marketed forms and is worthy of further development.
