Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of medical technology, and in particular relates to polymorphic and amorphous forms of Sanguisorba officinalis saponin II sodium salt, as well as preparation methods and applications thereof. Background Art

[0002] Chinese herbal medicine Sanguisorba officinalis ( Sanguisorba officinalis L. ) is derived from a plant in the Rosaceae family and is a traditional Chinese medicinal material. Its dried roots are widely used clinically to treat gastrointestinal bleeding and burn wound repair, and have demonstrated unique advantages in adjuvant cancer treatment. The main active ingredients of Sanguisorba officinalis are triterpenoid saponins, of which Ziyuglycoside II (ZYG II) is one of its core pharmacologically active ingredients. Studies have shown that ZYG II has multiple pharmacological activities, such as inducing cancer cell apoptosis and autophagy, inhibiting cell proliferation, inhibiting angiogenesis, and regulating the expression of inflammatory factors. These properties make it promising for the treatment of solid tumors such as gastric cancer, colorectal cancer, and lung adenocarcinoma. In addition, ZYG II also has potential therapeutic value in diseases such as type 2 diabetes and inflammation.

[0003] As a saponin drug, ZYG II suffers from poor water solubility and low bioavailability, which seriously impact its clinical efficacy. After oral administration of a 5 mg / kg dose of ZYG II to Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats, its absolute bioavailability was only 4.6%. Currently, approaches to improving the bioavailability of Sanguisorba officinalis active ingredients primarily focus on drug delivery systems, such as using self-microemulsifying systems or long-circulating liposome encapsulation to enhance their solubility and stability. However, it is worth noting that research specifically targeting ZYG II's own solubility and bioavailability remains elusive. Due to the extremely poor water solubility of ZYG II, the present invention selected its more water-soluble sodium salt (Sanguisorba officinalis saponin II sodium salt, ZYG-II-Na) and conducted screening of solid forms, including polymorphic and amorphous forms, to improve its solubility and optimize its pharmacokinetic behavior.

[0051] 2. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) Accurately weigh 5-10 mg of powdered sample and place it in a platinum crucible in a thermogravimetric analyzer. Under a nitrogen atmosphere (flow rate approximately 50 ml / min), heat the sample from 30°C to 550°C at a rate of 10 K / min. Record the change in sample mass percentage versus temperature.

[0052] 3. Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) Accurately weigh 5-10 mg of powder sample and place it in a sealed aluminum crucible. Under a nitrogen atmosphere, heat the sample from 40°C to 300°C at a rate of 10 K / min, and record the heat flow change.

[0053] 2. Preparation of various solid forms of ZYG-Ⅱ-Na The structural formula of compound I (ZYG-Ⅱ-Na) is as follows: .

[0054] Example 1: Preparation of Form I Take 20 mg of compound I, add it to 7 mL of ethanol, heat it to 40 ° C and stir to dissolve it. Open it under the condition of keeping warm to allow the ethanol to evaporate completely, precipitate the solid, take a sample for testing, and mark it as crystal form I. The test results are shown in Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 . Figure 2 The DSC results show that the sample has an endothermic peak near 130.6℃ and an endothermic peak near 244.5℃, which are related to the change of intermolecular force or stress release at high temperature. Figure 3 The TGA results show that the sample begins to decompose at around 345.4°C. The PXRD diffraction peak data of Form I are shown in Table 1.

[0066] Example 8: Particle Size Control for Inhalation Drug Delivery Each crystalline form and amorphous form were sieved through 40 mesh and subjected to air flow milling at an air inlet pressure of 6.5 bar, a milling pressure of 6.0 bar, and a feed rate of 2 rpm. Particle size distribution was determined by laser diffraction.

[0067] The aerodynamic size and in vitro deposition efficiency of ZYG-Ⅱ-Na particles in various solid forms were determined using the Next Generation Impactor (NGI). The NGI, comprised of an artificial throat, a pre-separator, a seven-stage cascade impactor, and a micro-orifice collector (MOC), allows for fractional collection of particles based on their aerodynamic properties under simulated inhalation flow conditions, enabling a comprehensive evaluation of their deposition behavior. No. 3 hydropropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) capsules were used as carriers. Each capsule was loaded with 10 mg of ZYG-Ⅱ-Na powder and subsequently placed individually into the inhalation device. After puncture, the capsules were tightly connected to the NGI system and inhalation testing was performed under standard conditions of an airflow rate of 60 L / min and a run time of 4.0 s. To minimize secondary rebound or migration of particles on the impactor plates and ensure accurate particle deposition at the corresponding impactor levels, the surfaces of the NGI impactor plates (stages 1 to 7) and the MOC were pre-coated with a 1% silicone oil-n-hexane solution and allowed to evaporate naturally. Three capsules were tested in duplicate for each solid ZYG-Ⅱ-Na sample. After the experiment, the NGI impactor plates and capsules were thoroughly rinsed with ethanol. All deposited powder was recovered and, after appropriate treatment, analyzed by HPLC. The particle deposition distribution at each impactor stage was calculated, along with the capsule emptying and recovery rates. Each experiment was repeated three times to ensure data reliability and reproducibility.

[0068] The experimental data were processed using Copley Inhalation Dosage Test Data Analysis Software (CITDAS, Version 3.10) to calculate the particle deposition ratios at each level and to derive key aerodynamic parameters, including the fine particle fraction (FPF), mass median aerodynamic diameter (MMAD), and geometric standard deviation (GSD), for a comprehensive evaluation of the pulmonary delivery performance of different solid forms of ZYG-Ⅱ-Na.

[0069] Particle size results: shown in Table 6.

[0070] Table 6 Crystalline and amorphous particle sizes of ZYG-II-Na for inhalation

[0071] Aerodynamic evaluation results: Figure 22 , Table 7. All solid forms exhibited excellent aerodynamic performance. The MMAD of the powder inhaler ranged from 1.87 to 3.21 μm, meeting the particle size requirements for pulmonary delivery. GSD is used to describe the uniformity of the particle size distribution. A smaller GSD indicates a narrower particle size distribution, which helps improve pulmonary deposition efficiency. In this study, the GSD values ​​of different solid form DPI preparations were all less than 2, indicating that their particle size distribution was narrow. FPF, as one of the important evaluation indicators of powder inhalers, represents the mass percentage of particles with a size less than 5 μm in the total released amount. The study found that all solid forms exhibited high FPF values, among which the FPF of crystalline forms I, II, and III amorphous form I exceeded 70%, and the FPF of amorphous form II was 32.75 ± 1.62%, both meeting the requirements for pulmonary delivery. In addition, the capsule emptying rate and recovery rate of all solid forms were greater than 90%.

[0073] Example 9: Dynamic Water Vapor Adsorption Test Dynamic Vapor Sorption (DVS) testing was performed on ZYG-Ⅱ-Na Form I, Form II, Form III, Amorphous Form I, and Amorphous Form II. Approximately 20 mg of powder sample was placed in the sample tray of the dynamic vapor sorption instrument for testing. The experiment was conducted at 25°C, with the RH increasing from 0% to 95% in 5% increments, and then decreasing from 95% to 0% in the same gradient. The results are shown in the figure below. Figure 23-27As shown, the hygroscopicity of ZYG-Ⅱ-Na from weak to strong is crystal form III, crystal form II, crystal form I, amorphous form II, and amorphous form I, and the hygroscopicity of the crystal form is weaker than that of the amorphous form.

[0074] Example 10: Stability Test The stability of ZYG-Ⅱ-Na crystal form I, crystal form II, crystal form III, amorphous form I and amorphous form II was tested, and each solid form of ZYG-Ⅱ-Na was placed in an environment with a relative humidity (RH) of 75% and 40% and a constant temperature of 40°C for accelerated stability testing. The 75% humidity condition was obtained by controlling the humidity in a sealed container with saturated sodium chloride (NaCl), and the humidity was monitored in real time by a hygrometer to ensure environmental stability. The 40% humidity condition was controlled by a drug stability test chamber. The samples were stored under the above conditions on the 10th, 20th, 30th, 60th and 90th days of storage, and samples were taken and their stability over time was evaluated by PXRD analysis. The results are shown in the figure. Figure 28-37 As shown, at 40°C, 40% RH, the PXRD patterns of Form I, Form III, Amorphous Form I, and Amorphous Form II remained unchanged for more than 90 days, and Form II underwent a crystal form transformation after 10 days. At 40°C, 75% RH, the PXRD patterns of Form III remained unchanged for more than 90 days, and Form I, Form II, Amorphous Form I, and Amorphous Form II underwent a crystal form transformation after 10 days.

[0075] Example 11: Solubility Test The solubility of ZYG-Ⅱ-Na crystal form I, crystal form II, crystal form III, amorphous form I and amorphous form II was tested in pure water and pH 7.4 Gamble's solution (artificial lung fluid) at a speed of 100 rpm and a temperature of 37±0.5°C. Figure 38 、 39 As shown, the maximum solubilities of ZYG-Ⅱ-Na in water are 4.5 mg / mL, 4.6 mg / mL, 17.1 mg / mL, 24.2 mg / mL and 15.9 mg / mL, respectively; and the maximum solubilities in artificial lung fluid are 0.20 mg / mL, 0.20 mg / mL, 0.62 mg / mL, 0.56 mg / mL and 0.53 mg / mL, respectively. The maximum solubilities of form III, amorphous form I and amorphous form II exceed those of form I and form II. Amorphous form I is better than other forms in maintaining supersaturation in water, and amorphous form II is better than other forms in maintaining supersaturation in artificial lung fluid.

[0076] Example 12: Pharmacokinetic Study The pharmacokinetics of ZYG-Ⅱ-Na crystal forms I, II, III, amorphous form I, and II were investigated in 42 male Sprague-Dawley rats, randomly divided into seven groups of six rats each. All animals had free access to water during the experiment and were fasted for 12 hours before dosing. One group of rats received a 10 mg / kg dose of ZYG-Ⅱ-Na (form I) solution via intravenous injection (iv); another group received the same dose of ZYG-Ⅱ-Na (form I) via intragastric gavage (ig). The remaining five groups received 10 mg / kg doses of various solid forms of ZYG-Ⅱ-Na, including crystal forms I, II, III, amorphous form I, and II, via dry powder inhaler. After administration, 0.2 ml of whole blood was collected from the retroorbital venous plexus at 0.083, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 2, 4, 8, 10, and 24 hours for pharmacokinetic analysis. The whole blood was centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 10 minutes (4°C) to separate the plasma and test the concentration. Figure 40 、 41 As shown in Tables 8 and 9, the biological exposure level of DPI administration is higher than that of oral gavage. The bioavailability of DPI administration in different solid forms is amorphous form II, amorphous form I, crystalline form III, crystalline form II, and crystalline form I. These characteristics provide potential prospects for their application in drug development.
