[0001] The invention belongs to the field of pharmaceutical preparations, in particular to an abiraterone acetate soft capsule and a preparation method thereof. Background technique
[0002] Abiraterone Acetate is a white to off-white, non-hygroscopic crystalline powder. Abiraterone acetate is a prodrug of abiraterone, a selective irreversible inhibitor of 17α-hydroxylase / C17,20-lyase (CYP17). The enzyme is expressed in testis and adrenal gland tissues and catalyzes the conversion of pregnene and nandrolone and progesterone to testosterone precursors, DHEA and androstenedione, respectively, through 17α hydroxylation and cleavage of C17,20 bonds. Abiraterone can inhibit the activity of CYP17 to prevent testosterone synthesis in testes, adrenal glands and tumors. Prostate cancer is an androgen-dependent disease, and testosterone suppression is a key pharmacological tool in controlling prostate cancer development. The chemical structure of abiraterone acetate...
