Assignee: Merck Sharp & Dohme Corp. (Rahway, NJ)
Application Number:15/780,142
Patent Claims: 1. A pharmaceutical composition, which is a bilayer tablet, comprising an amorphous dispersion formulation of doravirine in the first layer, and lamivudine and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate in the second layer.

2. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 wherein the amorphous dispersion formulation of doravirine comprises doravirine and a polymer.

3. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 2 wherein the polymer is selected from the group consisting of hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose acetate succinate, hydroxpropyl methyl cellulose phthalate, cellulose acetate phthalate, cellulose acetate trimellitate, methyl cellulose acetate phthalate, hydroxypropyl cellulose acetate phthalate, cellulose acetate terephthalate, cellulose acetate isophthalate, polyvinylpyrrolidinone and polyvinylpyrrolidinone-polyvinylacetate copolymers.

4. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 3 wherein the polymer is hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose acetate succinate.

5. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 wherein the first layer comprises an amorphous dispersion formulation of doravirine, a glidant, a diluent, a disintegrant, and a lubricant.

6. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 5 wherein the first layer comprises a glidant that is selected from the group consisting of colloidal silica, silicone dioxide, talc and starch; a diluent that is selected from the group consisting of lactose, lactose anhydrous, lactose monohydrate, mannitol, microcrystalline cellulose, calcium phosphate dibasic, calcium carbonate and magnesium carbonate; a disintegrant that is selected from the group consisting of croscarmellose sodium, starch, crospovidone, and sodium starch glycolate; and a lubricant that is selected from the group consisting of magnesium stearate, stearic acid or sodium stearyl fumarate.

7. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 6 wherein the first layer comprises a glidant that is colloidal silica; a diluent that is microcrystalline cellulose; a disintegrant that is croscarmellose sodium; and a lubricant that is magnesium stearate.

8. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 wherein the second layer comprises lamivudine, tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, a glidant, a diluent, a disintegrant, and lubricants.

9. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 8 wherein the second layer comprises a glidant that is selected from the group consisting of colloidal silica, silicone dioxide, talc and starch; a diluent that is selected from the group consisting of lactose, lactose anhydrous, lactose monohydrate, mannitol, microcrystalline cellulose, calcium phosphate dibasic, calcium carbonate and magnesium carbonate; a disintegrant that is selected from the group consisting of croscarmellose sodium, starch, crospovidone, and sodium starch glycolate; lubricants that are selected from the group consisting of magnesium stearate, stearic acid and sodium stearyl fumarate.

10. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 9 wherein the second layer comprises a glidant that is colloidal silica; a diluent that is microcrystalline cellulose; a disintegrant that is croscarmellose sodium; and lubricants that are magnesium stearate and sodium stearyl fumarate.

11. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 wherein lamivudine and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate are co-granulated.

12. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 wherein lamivudine and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate are separately granulated.

13. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 comprising a film coat.
