Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of pharmaceutical technology, specifically relating to a preparation containing lysdexample dimethylsulfonate and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Lisdexampleminate capsules are a drug manufactured by Shire (now Takeda) under the brand name Vyvanse. This drug is a central nervous system sympathomimetic agent used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and bulimia ulcerative colitis (BED). Lisdexampleminate itself is inactive; it is a prodrug of dextroamphetamine (amphetamine, a central nervous system (CNS) stimulant). After oral administration, it is rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and hydrolyzed in the blood to produce the active d-amphetamine (d-AMP), thus exerting its therapeutic effect.
[0003] The structure of lysd-phenylpropanol dimethanesulfonic acid is shown below:
[0004]
[0005] The original research company disclosed a formulation of lisdexample dimethylsulfonate in its patent applications (US20070042955A1 and CN101193650A), which consisted of lisdexample dimethylsulfonate, microcrystalline cellulose, croscarmellose sodium, and magnesium stearate. However, in actual production applications, the stability of this formulation was found to be insufficient.
[0006] As is well known, lisdexampleminamine dimethanesulfonate contains amide bonds, making it prone to moisture deliquescence, which leads to poor flowability and agglomeration of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), thus affecting the content uniformity of the formulation. It may also cause drug degradation and microbial growth, impacting its stability, which is crucial for the quality of the formulation. Therefore, how to obtain lisdexampleminamine dimethanesulfonate formulations with stable content uniformity and quality, unaffected by the API, through a combination of raw material ratio improvements and process modifications, to ensure drug quality and safety, is one of the issues that needs to be explored.

[0129] The technical solution of the present invention will be further illustrated by the following experiments.
[0130] Experimental Example 1: Study on the Agglomeration Properties of Lysdexamylamine Dimethanesulfonate Raw Material
[0131] The formulation containing lysdexampleminamine dimethanesulfonate of this invention has an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) content of approximately 16%, which carries a relatively low risk of homogeneity issues. However, previous studies have shown that APIs tend to agglomerate. Therefore, Study 1 was designed to investigate whether increasing the mixing speed could disrupt agglomerate formation. If agglomerate formation could not be controlled, a sieving step was added during the mixing process to further investigate whether agglomerate formation could be controlled. Finally, the effect of mixing time on mixing homogeneity was evaluated. The specific process is as follows:
[0132]
[0133] According to the established formula, the mixture was stirred at different speeds to investigate the formation of agglomerates. Experimental results showed that agglomerates formed at all speeds in the three-dimensional mixer, and prolonged mixing did not cause the agglomerates to disperse spontaneously. This indicates that the active pharmaceutical ingredient, lisdexamyl dimethanesulfonate, exhibits uneven distribution due to its high hygroscopicity, thus affecting the uniformity of drug content and consequently impacting the overall stability and quality of the formulation.
[0134] Experimental Example 2: Dissolution performance and stability of lysdexample dimethanesulfonate formulation
[0135] The samples used in this test example are as follows:

[0141] Batch number 23090108 / 20mg was prepared according to the method of Example 1, except that the water content of the microcrystalline cellulose was 1.562%.

[0143] Reference formulation information: The reference formulation used in this invention is manufactured by Shire Development Inc. (the raw material composition of the reference formulation is lysdexamyl dimethylsulfonate, microcrystalline cellulose, croscarmellose sodium, and magnesium stearate).
[0144] 1. Content uniformity experiment:
[0145] according to Figure 1 Samples were taken from the mixer (total powder) to test the mixing uniformity. The sample size at each sampling point was 1 to 3 times the dosage unit. The content at each sampling point should be 90% to 110% of the labeled amount, and the RSD should not exceed 5.0%. The test results are shown in Table 1 below.
[0146] Table 1. Results of content uniformity test (specification: 20mg / 125mg)
[0147]
[0148] As shown in Table 1, the uniformity of the total powder content obtained in Example 1 is comparable to that of Example 1 (without controlling the moisture content of microcrystalline cellulose), indicating that the uniformity of the total powder content obtained by using the raw material ratio and preparation method of the present invention is not affected by the moisture content of the raw materials.
[0149] 2. Dissolution test

[0152] Take 10 ml of the dissolution solution from the test sample solution, filter it, and collect the filtrate.
[0153] For the reference solution, accurately weigh an appropriate amount of lisdexamyl dimethanesulfonate reference standard, dissolve it in 0.1 mol / L hydrochloric acid solution, and quantitatively dilute it to prepare a solution containing approximately 40 μg (20 mg specification) or 60 μg (30 mg specification) per 1 ml.
[0154] Chromatographic conditions: Octadecylsilane-bonded silica gel (Inertsil ODS-3, 4.6 mm × 150 mm, 5 μm) was used as the packing material; sodium octane sulfonate solution (6.49 g of sodium octane sulfonate dissolved in 1000 ml of water, pH adjusted to 3.3 with phosphoric acid) - acetonitrile (65:35) was used as the mobile phase; the flow rate was 1.0 ml / min; the column temperature was 30 °C; the detection wavelength was 215 nm; and the injection volume was 10 μl.
[0155] For system suitability, the RSD of the peak area of lysadecanine should not exceed 2.0% after five consecutive injections of the reference solution. The theoretical plate number, calculated based on the lysadecanine peak, should not be less than 3000.
[0156] For the assay, accurately measure the test solution and the reference solution, inject them separately into the liquid chromatograph, and record the chromatograms. Calculate the dissolution amount per particle based on peak area using the external standard method.
[0157] The limit labeled amount should be 85% in accordance with regulations.

[0183]
[0184] Note: Reference preparation (packaging: high-density polyethylene bottle, specification: 20mg).
[0185] As can be seen from Tables 5 and 6, the content of related substances in the samples obtained by the present invention is very low. The stability of the samples prepared by controlling the moisture content of excipients, adjusting the raw material ratio, and combining the preparation method is far superior to that of the reference preparation, the finished product treated with added desiccant, and the finished product obtained without the technical method of the present invention.

[0190] Note: (Packaging: High-density polyethylene bottle)
[0191] As can be seen from Tables 7 and 7-1, by determining the ratio of raw materials and the preparation method, and controlling the moisture content of the excipient microcrystalline cellulose within a reasonable range, the stability of the formulation of the present invention can be improved.
[0192] Compared with the reference formulation (30 mg, 3180794), the accelerated 0-6 month test results of the sample in this test example show that the sample of the present invention has better stability and better guarantees the quality of the product.

[0198] Comparison of different preparation methods in Experiment Example 3
[0199] This experimental example provides a comparative experimental group using a dry granulation preparation process to verify the impact of the preparation method on the stability of the formulation.
[0200] The specific preparation method is as follows:
[0201] The specific dosage of lysdexampleminamine dimethanesulfonate capsules is as follows: 30 mg of lysdexampleminamine dimethanesulfonate, 150.07 mg of microcrystalline cellulose, 5.63 mg of croscarmellose sodium, and 1.88 mg of magnesium stearate; the water content of the microcrystalline cellulose is <3.0%.
[0202] The preparation method of lisdexamyl dimethanesulfonate capsules is as follows:
[0203] Environmental control: The production environment needs to be controlled at a temperature ≤25℃ and humidity ≤40%.
[0204] Pretreatment: Pass lysd-phenylpropanol dimethylsulfonic acid through a 40-mesh sieve and set aside for use.
[0205] Premix I: Weigh each material according to the prescription amount, and add them to the mixer in the following order: 2 / 3 of the prescription amount of microcrystalline cellulose, lysd-dphenylacetyl dimethylsulfonate, sodium croscarmellose carboxymethyl cellulose, and the remaining 1 / 3 of the prescription amount of microcrystalline cellulose. Mix for 10 minutes at a speed of 16 rpm for the main shaft and 16 rpm for the auxiliary shaft.
[0206] Passing through a 40-mesh sieve: After premixing I is completed, remove the powder from the mixer and manually pass it through a 40-mesh sieve for dispersion.
[0207] Premix II: Continue mixing the powder after passing through a 40-mesh sieve at a speed of 16 rpm for the main shaft and 16 rpm for the auxiliary shaft for 10 minutes.
[0208] Internal lubrication: Take the magnesium stearate from the internal lubrication portion, pass it through a 40-mesh sieve, and add it to the mixer. Mix for 5 minutes at a speed of 16 rpm for the main shaft and 16 rpm for the auxiliary shaft.
[0209] Dry granulation: Set the dry granulator to automatic mode, with pressure roller pressure of 60-80 bar, roller speed of 11 rpm, roller gap of 0.4-0.5 mm, granulation speed of 120 rpm, and granulation sieve aperture of 1.0 mm.
[0210] Total mixing: According to the prescription ratio, take the added magnesium stearate, pass it through a 40-mesh sieve and add it to the dry granulation granules. Mix for 5 minutes at a speed of 16 rpm for the main shaft and 16 rpm for the auxiliary shaft.
[0211] Capsule filling: The theoretical filling amount is calculated based on the total mixed particle content test results, and the actual filling amount is controlled within ±3.5% of the theoretical filling amount.
[0212] The stability test was conducted using the following method:
[0213] Test conditions: 40℃±2℃ / RH75%±5%.
[0214] Test method: Take this product, with its packaging, and place it in a drug stability test chamber for 6 months.
[0215] Sampling points: January, February, March, and June. Tables 9-11 show the three batches of samples prepared according to the above preparation method.

[0218] Table 10 Stability data of dry granulation samples
[0219]
[0220]
[0221] Table 11 Stability data of dry granulation samples
[0222]
[0223] The experimental data above shows that, based on the original patented formulation, modifying the preparation method by adding a dry granulation step resulted in a formulation with poor stability. This indicates that the process improvement of adding dry granulation cannot effectively enhance the stability of the formulation.
[0224] As can be seen from the above embodiments and experimental examples, this invention, by combining the optimization of raw material ratios, the control of moisture content in specific raw materials, and the optimization of the preparation process, has produced a lisdexamyl dimethanesulfonate formulation that exhibits better stability than existing formulations, while maintaining the same dissolution performance. This invention can effectively improve the quality and safety of lisdexamyl dimethanesulfonate and has excellent application prospects.
