Abstract

See full text

Pharmaceutical compositions for oral administration to mammalian subjects comprise a taxane or taxane derivative (e.g., paclitaxel or docetaxel) as active ingredient and a vehicle comprising at least 30% by weight of a carrier for the taxane, said carrier having an HLB value of at least about 10. The compositions may also comprise 0-70% of a viscosity-reducing co-solubilizer. The compositions may be incorporated into conventional oral pharmaceutical dosage forms, or can be in the form of a two-part medicament wherein the first part includes the taxane in a solubilizing vehicle and the second part comprises a carrier for the taxane to promote oral absorption. Methods of treatment of taxane-responsive disease conditions employing the novel compositions are also disclosed, whereby the compositions can be administered alone or in association with an oral bioavailability enhancing agent.
