Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure belongs to the field of pharmaceutical technology and relates to a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, crystalline form, and uses of a cucurbituril derivative. Background Technology

[0002] Muscle relaxation is one of the three essential elements of general anesthesia. While muscle relaxants meet the needs of endotracheal intubation and surgery, they also bring safety risks—residual muscle relaxation. This can lead to subjective discomfort in patients and a series of pulmonary complications such as hypoxemia, regurgitation, and aspiration. To reduce the incidence of residual muscle relaxation, measures are often taken, including the use of intermediate- or short-acting muscle relaxants, optimized intraoperative muscle relaxation management, postoperative antagonism of muscle relaxant effects, and objective perioperative muscle relaxation monitoring.

[0003] Postoperative muscle relaxant antagonism refers to the use of muscle relaxant antagonists to reverse the residual effects of non-depolarizing muscle relaxants. Currently, commonly used muscle relaxant antagonists can be broadly classified into two categories: competitive muscle relaxant antagonists, including neostigmine as an acetylcholine inhibitor; and selective muscle relaxant antagonists, including sugambogia sodium as a steroid muscle relaxant antagonist and cysteine ​​as a benzylisoquinoline muscle relaxant antagonist.

[0004] PCT / CN2023 / 131007 discloses a non-closed-ring CB[n] type molecular container with a cucurbituril structure, having the following structure. It can bind efficiently to benzyl isoquinoline and steroid muscle relaxants, and by covering the quaternary ammonium sites of benzyl isoquinoline and steroid muscle relaxants, it prevents the muscle relaxants from binding to neuromuscular cholinergic receptors, thereby rapidly reversing the muscle relaxant effect.

[0005] Salt formation can improve certain undesirable physicochemical or biological properties of drugs. Developing salts with superior physicochemical or pharmaceutical properties compared to compounds of Formula 1 is of great significance. Given the importance of the crystal form and stability of solid drugs in clinical treatment, in-depth research into the polymorphisms of pharmaceutically viable salts of Formula 1 compounds is also crucial for developing drugs suitable for industrial production and possessing good biological activity.

[0132] The test sample was reconstituted using 0.9% sodium chloride.

[0137] After anesthetizing rats, the sciatic nerve and gastrocnemius muscle were isolated. The sciatic nerve was stimulated, and muscle tone signals were recorded using a tension transducer. The rats were then intubated and mechanically ventilated using a small animal ventilator. After a period of stable muscle tone recording, the drug was administered: the initial dose was twice the ED. 90 Administer a dose (0.8 mg / kg) of muscle relaxant (cistracurium). The muscle tone curve should decrease at this point. Inject the antagonist (test sample and neostigmine) 30-60 seconds after administration. Once the muscle tone curve recovers to above 95%, administer the ED. 90 When administering a muscle relaxant (succinylcholine) at a dose of 0.9 mg / kg, a decrease in muscle tone should be observed. The experiment can be stopped once muscle tone naturally recovers to above 95%. Muscle tone signals should be continuously recorded during the experiment, and indicators such as onset time and clinical efficacy should be statistically analyzed. By comparing muscle tone signals after administration, the reversal effect of the antagonist can be determined and compared.

[0138] IV. Experimental Procedure

[0139] 4.1 Weighing and anesthetizing rats

[0140] The rats were weighed and, once they were in a stable mood, 25% urethane was prepared from ethyl carbamate and anesthetized by intraperitoneal injection at a rate of 1 mL / 100 g. After the pain reflex disappeared, the rats were fixed in a prone position on a foam board, and hair was removed from the buttocks and the outer side of the right thigh.

[0141] 4.2 Separation of the sciatic nerve

[0142] Behind the hip joint, make an incision along the outer edge of the femur in the middle of the thigh, lift the skin and superficial fascia, bluntly dissect the muscles to expose the sciatic nerve. Be careful to use a glass dissecting needle during dissection to prevent damage to the nerve with metal instruments.

[0143] 4.3 Separation of the gastrocnemius muscle

[0144] Cut open the skin of the lower leg at the ankle joint, cut the ligaments at the front of the ankle joint, separate the gastrocnemius muscle, tie a suture at the gastrocnemius tendon at the ankle, and cut the tendon at the distal end of the suture.

[0145] 4.4 Signal Collection

[0146] The gastrocnemius muscle ligation suture was connected to the tension transducer, and the stimulator was connected to the sciatic nerve. The input signal was set to tension, and the parameters were set as square wave, fine voltage, series stimulation, delay 0.05ms, pulse width 0.2ms, frequency 2Hz, intensity 0.225±0.025V, intensity increment 0, series length 4, main period 12s, and number of stops 30000. The muscle contraction curve was recorded. During the measurement, the muscle nerve was kept moist with physiological saline every 3-5 minutes.

[0147] 4.5 Connect to ventilator and administer muscle relaxants and antagonists.

[0148] Wipe the ventilator tubing with alcohol, make an incision in the neck skin to locate the jugular vein and trachea, cut the trachea, connect the ventilator, and set the parameters as follows: tidal volume 6 mL, respiratory rate to exhalation ratio 5:4, and respiratory rate 80 breaths / min. After stabilizing for approximately 5 minutes, administer the drug via the jugular vein. Based on the reference settings, administer 2 times the initial dose. 90 After administering the appropriate dose of muscle relaxant (cistracurium), the muscle tone curve should decrease. Inject the antagonist (test sample or neostigmine) 30-60 seconds later. Once the muscle tone curve recovers to over 95%, administer the ED. 90 After administering the appropriate dose of muscle relaxant (succinylcholine), wait until the muscle tone curve recovers to above 95% before stopping the experiment. Continue recording the muscle tone curve throughout the experiment.

[0150]

[0151] 4.6 Statistics on Timeliness Indicators

[0152] The onset time and secondary muscle relaxation onset time were statistically analyzed using a biological function experimental system, and the statistical standards are as follows.

[0153] 1) Time to 90% recovery of TOF (TOF 0.9): The time for the T4 / T1 value of TOF string stimulation to recover to approximately 90% - the time of antagonist administration.

[0154] 2) Duration of muscle relaxation by succinylcholine: Time to reduce muscle tone to its lowest value - Time to administer succinylcholine
