[0003] This disclosure claims the priority of a Chinese patent application with the application number 202411335782.4, titled "An Oral Polypeptide Composition", filed on September 24, 2024. This disclosure incorporates the entire text of the above-mentioned Chinese patent application by reference. Technical Field

[0004] This disclosure belongs to the field of biomedicine and specifically relates to an oral polypeptide composition. Background Art

[0005] Polypeptide drugs are a class of biopolymers formed by short-chain amino acids linked by peptide bonds, usually consisting of 10 to 50 amino acids, and are an important branch in the current field of drug research and development. Polypeptide drugs can specifically bind to targets such as receptors or enzymes, and this binding usually has high affinity. This enables polypeptide drugs to precisely regulate specific biological processes without affecting other physiological functions compared to small molecule drugs. Compared with many macromolecular biopharmaceuticals, polypeptides usually have lower immunogenicity because their smaller molecular structure and characteristics closer to natural peptides make them less likely to stimulate strong immune responses. Compared with complex biopharmaceuticals, the synthesis process of polypeptide drugs is simpler and more controllable, which makes the production process more efficient and cost-effective. At the same time, natural polypeptides can also be modified by various means to enhance their efficacy, improve pharmacokinetic properties or reduce side effects.

[0006] At the present stage, the main administration method of polypeptide drugs is by injection. Injection is an invasive administration method that needs to be carried out through the skin, which may cause pain and discomfort to patients. In addition, injection usually requires the operation of medical professionals or the patients themselves, which increases the complexity and inconvenience of administration. Injection may also lead to complications such as injection site infection and local tissue damage. Especially when the operation is improper or the same site is repeatedly injected, due to the pain and inconvenience caused by injection, patients may be reluctant to receive injections regularly according to the doctor's advice, affecting the treatment effect. Therefore, it is very necessary to develop an oral dosage form of polypeptide drugs.

[0007] Although oral peptide drugs have obvious advantages in convenience and acceptance, the scientific and technological difficulties encountered in their development process are still quite severe. These challenges are mainly reflected in the generally low bioavailability of peptide drugs, mainly due to stability and absorption barriers. Under the action of gastric acid and intestinal enzymes, peptides are easily decomposed, which greatly reduces their bioavailability through the oral route. In order to achieve an effective therapeutic effect, it is necessary to ensure that sufficient amounts of drugs can stably pass through the digestive system and enter the blood circulation. In addition, due to the large size and polar characteristics of peptide drug molecules, they are difficult to pass through the intestinal mucosa. Even if the peptides can remain stable in the intestine, their absorption efficiency may still be low.

[0008] (Oral semaglutide) is the first approved oral glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist, marking a major breakthrough in the field of peptide therapy. The success of this study not only opens up a new path for the application of semaglutide itself, but also paves the way for the development and commercialization of other potential oral peptide drugs. It proves that through appropriate formulation and technology, some biologically active molecules that can traditionally only be administered by injection can be converted into oral form.

[0009] Developed by Emisphere Technologies technology, which achieves its effects through the use of specialized chemical carriers, which are called "Eligen carriers." Using sodium N-(8-(2-hydroxybenzoyl)amino) caprylate (SNAC) in the Eligen carrier increases the stability and absorption rate of semaglutide in the stomach by adjusting the pH value in the stomach and affecting the permeability of the gastric mucosa. However, clinical data show that The bioavailability of a drug is only about 0.8%. Bioavailability refers to the proportion of a drug that enters the systemic circulatory system from the site of administration. For a drug, low bioavailability means that only a small portion of the administered dose eventually reaches the blood circulation and takes effect. In order to overcome the problem of low blood drug concentration caused by low bioavailability, the drug dose needs to be increased. This not only increases costs, but may also increase the risk of drug side effects. Low bioavailability is often accompanied by large individual differences, which may lead to unstable or unpredictable treatment effects. If frequent dosing is required to compensate for low bioavailability, patient compliance with treatment may be reduced, leading to poor treatment effects and improper disease management.

[0010] In summary, as a revolutionary peptide therapeutic drug, It brings the convenience of oral treatment to patients, but there is still the problem of low bioavailability that needs to be solved. Summary of the invention

[0696] Method for preparing pharmaceutical composition and tablet

[0697] The pharmaceutical composition of the present disclosure refers to a composition for preparing an oral polypeptide tablet, which comprises a first particle and a second particle, wherein the first particle encapsulates polypeptide molecules but does not include functional additives such as absorption promoters; the second particle includes functional additives such as absorption promoters but does not include polypeptide molecules, wherein the absorption promoter includes amino acids, N-(8-(2-hydroxybenzoyl)amino)octanoic acid (NAC) or its salt, and medium-chain fatty acids or their salts. In some embodiments, the first particle comprises polypeptide molecules and excipients but does not include functional additives such as absorption promoters; and / or, the second particle includes functional additives such as absorption promoters and excipients but does not include polypeptide molecules.

[0698] In the pharmaceutical composition of the present disclosure, the first particle and the second particle can be produced in a manner known to those skilled in the art, for example, using wet granulation methods known for producing "combined" particles or "disintegrated" particles. The method of forming combined particles can be operated continuously and includes, for example, simultaneously spraying granulating substances with a granulating solution and drying, such as in a drum granulator, in a disk granulator, on a disk granulator, in a fluidized bed, by spray drying-drying or spray solidification, or discontinuously, such as in a fluidized bed, in a rotary fluidized bed, in an intermittent mixer, such as a high-shear mixer or a low-shear mixer, or in a spray drying drum. The method of preparing broken particles, which can be carried out discontinuously, wherein the granulating substances first form wet aggregates with the granulating solution, and then they are crushed or otherwise formed into particles of the desired size, and the particles can then be dried. Suitable equipment for the granulation step is a planetary mixer, a low-shear mixer, a high-shear mixer, an extruder, and a spheronizer. The granules can also be formed by dry granulation techniques, wherein the pharmaceutical active ingredient is compressed together with the excipient to form a larger molded article, such as by grinding crushed lumps or strips, and the ground material is used as the tablet pressing material for later compaction.

[0699] The method of using the pharmaceutical composition to prepare an oral polypeptide tablet is well known to those skilled in the art. To compress the tablet pressing material into a solid oral dosage form, such as a tablet, a tablet press can be used. In the tablet press, the tablet pressing material is filled (e.g., forced feeding or gravity feeding) into the die cavity. Then the tablet pressing material is compacted by a punch with pressure. Subsequently, the obtained tablet or tablet is ejected from the tablet press. The above compression process is hereinafter referred to as the "compression process". Suitable tablet presses include, but are not limited to, rotary tablet presses and eccentric tablet presses.

[0700] The process for preparing the oral polypeptide tablet of the present disclosure is not limited thereto. For example, tablets can be obtained by direct compression. Using the pharmaceutical composition of the present disclosure to prepare an oral polypeptide tablet can significantly improve the oral bioavailability of the tablet compared to the polypeptide tablet obtained by direct compression when the compositions are exactly the same.
