Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of pharmaceutical preparations, and particularly relates to an imipenem cilastatin sodium injection preparation and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Imipenem cilastatin sodium for injection is a very broad-spectrum antibiotic, applicable to mixed infections caused by a variety of pathogens and aerobic / anaerobic bacteria, comprehensively treating various moderate and severe infections; and early treatment before the pathogen is determined. Imipenem cilastatin sodium for injection is a compound preparation, and its components are imipenem and cilastatin sodium. Imipenem is a novel β-lactam antibiotic thienamycin; cilastatin sodium is a specific enzyme inhibitor, which can block the metabolism of imipenem in the kidney, thereby increasing the concentration of the original drug of imipenem in the urinary tract. Imipenem belongs to the thienamycin class of antibiotics, and its bactericidal spectrum is wider than that of any other studied antibiotics.

[0003] Imipenem: (+)-(5R,6S)-3[[2-(iminomethylamino)ethyl]thio]-6-[(R)-1-cyanoethyl]-7-oxo-1-azabicyclo[3.2.0]hept-2-ene-2-carboxylic acid monohydrate. Imipenem is the first stable thienamycin derivative and is a new β-lactam antibiotic. It shows broad-spectrum and high-efficiency antibacterial activity by specifically inhibiting the synthesis of bacterial cell wall peptidoglycan, and has an effect on both Gram-positive and negative bacteria, including anaerobic bacteria. In particular, its antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus faecalis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Bacteroides fragilis is better than that of third-generation cephalosporene drugs such as cefoperazone.

[0004] Cilastatin sodium: (+)-(Z)-7-[[(R)-2-amino-2-carboxyethyl]thio]-2-[(S)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxamido]-2-heptenoic acid sodium salt. Imipenem is stable to β-lactamase, but when used alone, it can be metabolized and inactivated by renal dehydropeptidase I. When used in combination with the inhibitor of this enzyme, cilastatin, cilastatin blocks the action of dehydropeptidase I on the antibiotic, thereby blocking the metabolism of imipenem in the kidney, increasing the concentration of imipenem in the urinary tract, and at the same time reducing the nephrotoxicity of imipenem.

[0005] During the research and development process, the inventors found that the current imipenem cilastatin sodium injection preparation still has the problems of low drug stability during storage, resulting in easy degradation of the drug and a short shelf life. Summary of the Invention

[0006] Based on the problems that the currently prepared imipenem and cilastatin sodium injection preparations usually have low drug stability during storage, resulting in easy degradation of the drug and a short shelf life, the purpose of the present invention is to provide an imipenem and cilastatin sodium injection preparation and its preparation method. The imipenem and cilastatin sodium injection preparation prepared by the preparation method of the present invention has high stability, extends the shelf life of the drug, and improves the quality of the drug.

[0007] The present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0008] In the first aspect, the present application provides a preparation method for an imipenem and cilastatin sodium injection preparation, comprising the following steps:

[0009] Dissolve imipenem and cilastatin sodium in a buffer solution, and add serine and tea polyphenols to completely dissolve them to obtain an imipenem and cilastatin sodium mixed solution;

[0010] Mix hydroxyethyl methylcellulose, glutaric anhydride, 4-dimethylaminopyridine, and an ethanol solution and react them to obtain solution A;

[0011] Mix phenylalanine, glycine, sorbitan fatty acid ester, and nano calcium carbonate and react them to obtain solution B;

[0012] After mixing solution A and solution B, add them to the imipenem and cilastatin sodium mixed solution, stir and mix evenly, then cool down to crystallize, and then filter to obtain imipenem and cilastatin sodium, and then perform freezing and drying to obtain an imipenem and cilastatin sodium injection preparation.

[0013] When the present invention prepares the imipenem and cilastatin sodium mixed solution, on the one hand, both the added serine and tea polyphenols contain hydroxyl groups, which can replace the hydrogen bonds in the solution to provide a stabilizing effect. On the other hand, the hydroxyl groups in tea polyphenols and the carboxyl groups in serine will also undergo an acylation reaction to form cross-linking points, causing serine to form a network structure. The formation of this cross-linked network structure can generate a certain mechanical strength to protect the imipenem and cilastatin sodium during the freezing process, avoid the influence of low temperature on the drug properties of imipenem and cilastatin sodium, and improve the quality of the prepared imipenem and cilastatin sodium preparation.

[0014] In solution A of the present invention, the molecular weight of hydroxyethyl methylcellulose contains hydroxyl groups. When glutaric anhydride reacts with the hydroxyl groups on hydroxyethyl methylcellulose, the carbon-oxygen double bond will break, the acid anhydride ring will open, and the hydrogen atom on the hydroxyl group will combine with an oxygen atom formed after the acid anhydride breaks to generate water. At the same time, the group where the hydroxyl group is located is connected to the carbonyl carbon atom of the acid anhydride, thereby realizing the acylation reaction. Under the catalysis of 4-dimethylaminopyridine, the hydroxyl groups on hydroxyethyl methylcellulose further undergo a nucleophilic substitution reaction with the formed acyl group to form new ester bonds, so that the hydroxyethyl methylcellulose after the reaction has ester bonds. The hydroxyethyl methylcellulose with ester bonds can not only improve the biological activity of imipenem cilastatin sodium, but also improve the solubility of the imipenem cilastatin sodium preparation, avoid precipitation during use, and is also conducive to the absorption and distribution of imipenem cilastatin sodium in the body.

[0015] In addition, the amino group in phenylalanine in solution B can undergo a condensation reaction with the carboxyl group in glycine to form an amide bond. Under the emulsifying action of sorbitan fatty acid ester, the viscosity of the system is enhanced to obtain a colloid rich in pores, and nano-calcium carbonate is adsorbed through this colloid. After the hydroxyethyl methylcellulose with ester bonds formed in solution A is mixed with the colloid solution containing nano-calcium carbonate formed in solution B, a protective film with encapsulation ability can be formed. This protective film can tightly wrap imipenem cilastatin sodium to form a stable outer shell structure, effectively isolating the damage to drug molecules during ice crystal formation, improving the stability and bioavailability of the drug, and prolonging the shelf life of the imipenem cilastatin sodium injection preparation.

[0016] In a specific embodiment, the mass ratio of the hydroxyethyl methylcellulose, glutaric anhydride, and 4-dimethylaminopyridine is (3-5):(4-5):(1-1.2).

[0017] In a specific embodiment, the mass ratio of the phenylalanine, glycine, sorbitan fatty acid ester, and nano-calcium carbonate is (1.2-1.4):(1.4-1.6):(0.5-0.7):(0.2-0.3).

[0018] In a specific embodiment, the buffer solution includes a phosphoric acid-potassium hydrogen phosphate buffer solution.

[0019] In a specific embodiment, the mass ratio of the imipenem to the cilastatin sodium is 1:1.

[0020] In a specific embodiment, the dosage ratio of the serine to the tea polyphenols is (8-10):(3-5).

[0021] In a specific embodiment, filtration is sequentially carried out using 0.45 μm and 0.22 μm microporous membranes.

[0022] In a specific embodiment, the freezing process includes the following steps:

[0023] 1) First, cool down to -30°C to -25°C and freeze for 50 min to 60 min;

[0024] 2) Cool down to -45°C to -50°C and freeze for 25 min to 30 min;

[0025] 3) Heat up to -35°C to -30°C for annealing treatment for 40 min to 45 min;

[0026] 4) Then cool down to -55°C to -50°C and freeze for 25 min to 30 min.

[0027] In a specific embodiment, the drying process includes the following steps:

[0028] 1) The freeze-drying equipment is evacuated until the vacuum degree reaches more than 50%. First, heat up to 0 to 10°C and hold for 45 to 60 min, and then heat up to 45 to 50°C and hold for 4 to 5 h to complete the first drying;

[0029] 2) Adjust the vacuum degree of the freeze-drying equipment to 35 to 40%, heat up the temperature to 60 to 65°C and hold for 45 to 60 min to complete the second drying;

[0030] 3) Adjust the vacuum degree of the freeze-drying equipment to 25 to 30%, adjust the temperature to 40 to 45°C and hold for 1 to 1.5 h to complete the drying.

[0031] In the second aspect, the present application provides an imipenem and cilastatin sodium injection preparation, which is prepared by the above preparation method.

[0032] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and beneficial effects:

[0033] (1) When preparing the imipenem and cilastatin sodium mixed solution, on the one hand, both serine and tea polyphenols added contain hydroxyl groups, which can replace the hydrogen bonds in the solution to provide a stabilizing effect. On the other hand, the hydroxyl group in tea polyphenols and the carboxyl group in serine will also undergo an acylation reaction to generate cross-linking points, causing serine to form a network structure. The formation of this cross-linked network structure can generate a certain mechanical strength to protect the imipenem and cilastatin sodium during the freezing process, avoid the influence of low temperature on the drug properties of imipenem and cilastatin sodium, and improve the quality of the prepared imipenem and cilastatin sodium preparation.

[0034] (2) In the solution A of the present invention, the molecular weight of hydroxyethyl methylcellulose contains hydroxyl groups. When glutaric anhydride reacts with the hydroxyl groups on hydroxyethyl methylcellulose, the carbon-oxygen double bond will break, the acid anhydride ring opens, and the hydrogen atom on the hydroxyl group combines with an oxygen atom formed after the acid anhydride breaks to generate water. At the same time, the group where the hydroxyl group is located is connected to the carbonyl carbon atom of the acid anhydride, thereby realizing the acylation reaction. Under the catalytic action of 4-dimethylaminopyridine, the hydroxyl groups on hydroxyethyl methylcellulose further undergo a nucleophilic substitution reaction with the formed acyl group to form new ester bonds, so that the hydroxyethyl methylcellulose after the reaction has ester bonds. The hydroxyethyl methylcellulose with ester bonds can not only improve the biological activity of imipenem cilastatin sodium, but also improve the solubility of the imipenem cilastatin sodium preparation, avoid precipitation during use, and is also conducive to the absorption and distribution of imipenem cilastatin sodium in the body.

[0035] (3) After the hydroxyethyl methylcellulose with ester bonds formed in the solution A of the present invention is mixed with the colloidal solution containing nano-calcium carbonate formed in the solution B, a protective film with encapsulation ability can be formed. This protective film can tightly wrap imipenem cilastatin sodium to form a stable outer shell structure, effectively isolating the damage to drug molecules during ice crystal formation, improving the stability and bioavailability of the drug, and extending the shelf life of the imipenem cilastatin sodium injection preparation.
