Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of gel formulation technology, and in particular to a phospholipid gel, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Vesicular phospholipid gels (VPGs) are semi-solid phospholipid dispersions. Morphologically similar to vesicles, they differ from traditional liposome gels and ordinary liposome compartment structures. Due to their unique three-dimensional network structure, drug diffusion within VPGs follows a tortuous path, maximizing slow drug release and avoiding the potential toxicity caused by burst release effects. Based on the phospholipid-water interaction mechanism, under certain mechanical strength, typically when the phospholipid content is 1-100 mg / g (150 mmol / L), a common liposome structure spontaneously forms. Within this content range, water is completely absorbed by the phospholipid crystals, forming a single-phase system. Above this range, higher phospholipid contents (100-500 mg / g) are dispersed in a relatively small amount of water, resulting in a supersaturated aqueous phase with a high concentration of phospholipids. The amphoteric phospholipid molecules interact, forming gel-like vesicle morphologies through high-intensity shear forces. This technical approach can regulate the sustained-release behavior of formulations by optimizing phospholipid and drug concentrations, and the range of controllable sustained-release is relatively large.

[0003] The article "Research Progress on Vesicular Phospholipid Gels" (Chinese Journal of Pharmaceutics, Vol. 6, No. 4) describes the preparation method of vesicular phospholipid gels: When the VPG component is a single phospholipid, a "one-step preparation" technique is usually used. The phospholipid is dissolved in an appropriate amount of buffer solution or drug solution, magnetically stirred for 1-2 minutes, and then the viscous mixture is placed in a high-pressure homogenizer or microfluidic jet, and the operation is repeated several times under a certain pressure to obtain the gel. When the VPG component consists of two or more lipid components, the "organic solution freeze-drying" method is usually used. Due to the high concentration of phospholipids, the film dispersion method commonly used in liposome preparation is no longer applicable, and freeze-drying is more ideal. First, the phospholipid mixture is dissolved in an appropriate amount of organic solvent (or a mixture of organic solvents) under slow magnetic stirring, and then the solution is freeze-dried until a loose, spongy solid is formed. Then, it is dissolved and dispersed in a certain amount of aqueous medium to obtain the gel. Here, choosing a suitable organic solvent for freeze-drying is very important. Excellent freeze-drying organic solvents must meet the characteristics of high freezing point, high vapor pressure, high viscosity and low toxicity. Therefore, butanol-based organic solvents are more suitable.

[0004] Currently available marketed formulations for postoperative sustained-release analgesia include:

[0005] (1) Bupivacaine multi-capsule liposome Expallel is a formulation developed by Pacira using its DepoFoam technology. However, the liposomes release insufficient drug in the initial stages after administration, requiring the use of other formulations in clinical practice to achieve initial analgesic effects. Furthermore, its manufacturing process is complex, making it difficult to control batch-to-batch uniformity.

[0006] (2) Bupivacaine gel solution (trade name: Posimir) was developed by Durect Inc. in the United States, and consists of 660 mg bupivacaine and The platform technology is combined. Before injection, Posimir is a flowing liquid. At the end of the procedure, Posimir is placed under arthroscopy to directly observe the subacromial space. Sucrose acetate and benzyl alcohol combine with bupivacaine to form a continuously releasing drug reservoir gel, which continuously releases bupivacaine for more than 72 hours. The main excipients of the formulation are biodegradable sucrose acetate (SAIB) and the organic solvent benzyl alcohol, which poses certain safety risks.

[0007] (3) Bupivacaine / meloxicam sustained-release solution (trade name: Zynrelef) was developed by Heron Therapeutics and uses... The technology uses fourth-generation polyorthoesters (POEs) prepared by the condensation of diols and diketoacetals as sustained-release materials, which can control the diffusion of active ingredients at the surgical site, thereby regulating the release continuously and stably for 72 hours. Zynrelef uses novel excipients and DMSO as a solvent, which poses certain safety risks.

[0008] Chinese patent CN113116823A discloses a liposome and its preparation method, specifically relating to a lipid composition and liposomes obtained therefrom, wherein the liposomes have improved release characteristics. The preparation method includes: (1) providing a lipid composition, comprising: mixing ropivacaine, lipids, and a buffer solution to obtain a mixture, and shearing the mixture, wherein the ratio m / v of the total weight m of the ropivacaine and the lipids to the volume v of the buffer solution is 1:0.5-1:4; (2) diluting the lipid composition with a buffer solution; wherein the buffer solution provided in the lipid composition is a histidine buffer solution; and the buffer solution used for dilution is a histidine buffer solution.

[0010] Currently, for phospholipid gels, the selection of phospholipid raw materials and the degree of binding with the active pharmaceutical ingredient have a crucial impact on the performance of the resulting gel formulation. Therefore, it is still necessary to combine the effects of sustained release and release rate, and improve the phospholipid raw materials and preparation process to meet more complex clinical needs.

Examples of non-human mammals include, but are not limited to, birds and fish. In one embodiment of the methods and compositions provided herein, the mammal is a human.

[0103] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:

[0104] (1) After hydration, the encapsulation rate of formulations prepared with different types and proportions of phospholipids in the formulation varies from approximately 10% to 90%. By introducing specific negatively charged phospholipid combinations into the phospholipid gel preparation technology, the drug encapsulation rate can be significantly improved and the in vitro release rate of the drug can be reduced.

[0105] (2) Experimental data show that, compared with the original formulation of ropivacaine hydrochloride injection, which releases 0.5h-100% in vitro, the phospholipid gel form of ropivacaine hydrochloride can achieve in vitro release of 72h and above.

[0106] (3) In animal experiments, ropivacaine hydrochloride phospholipid gel showed a significant sustained-release effect in vivo compared with ropivacaine hydrochloride injection, which is consistent with the in vivo comparison trend of marketed postoperative analgesic sustained-release preparations.

[0107] (4) In terms of analgesic efficacy, in the Pin-Prick model (the efficacy model in the FDA application for Expare), the analgesic sustained-release effect of ropivacaine hydrochloride phospholipid gel is superior to that of the pre-modified formulation ropivacaine hydrochloride injection and the marketed formulation Expare.

[0108] (5) The phospholipid gel prepared by the present invention can be mixed with different free / encapsulated ratios by different hydration solvents, which is suitable for different clinical needs; different hydration volumes form phospholipid gels with different phospholipid concentrations (different viscosities), and the sustained release can be adjusted in a large range; at the same time, the hydration process is optimized and the manual hydration process is replaced by automated equipment, which is more efficient and convenient.

[0109] (6) The phospholipid gel of the present invention is suitable for use as a carrier for various active pharmaceutical ingredients, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, analgesics or glucocorticoids. By selecting an appropriate drug-lipid ratio, an excellent sustained-release effect can be achieved. At the same time, the present invention has demonstrated that the composition of lipids has a key influence on the sustained-release effect. Under the specific lipid composition and ratio of the present invention, the encapsulation rate and sustained-release effect of different active pharmaceutical ingredients can be improved simultaneously.

[0119] Example 1: Preparation of Ropivacaine Compositions with Different Lipid Types and Formulation Ratios

[0120] Ropivacaine lipid compositions were prepared using different types and proportions of lipids and ropivacaine hydrochloride, and different types and proportions of drug lipid compositions were prepared according to drug-lipid ratios of 1:5 / 1:10.

[0121] Ropivacaine hydrochloride and phospholipids were dissolved in tert-butanol-water solvent systems of varying proportions to form a homogeneous structure. The volume-to-mass ratio of the solvent system to ropivacaine hydrochloride was 40-100:1 (ml:g), specifically 10-20 ml:0.2 g. The solutions were filled into vials and lyophilized to obtain the drug-lipid lyophilized formulation.

[0122]

[0123] A 5% glucose solution was used as the hydration solvent, and hydration was carried out at 20-70℃. The volume-to-mass ratio of the hydration solvent to ropivacaine hydrochloride was 20:1-50:1 (ml:g), specifically 10ml:0.2g. The hydration time was 2-10min. This prepared ropivacaine phospholipid gel formulation. After hydration, the phospholipid concentration was 50mg / mL-300mg / mL, and the ropivacaine concentration was 10mg / mL-30mg / mL, forming phospholipid gels of different viscosities.

[0124] Weigh 1g of the hydrated drug phospholipid gel into a 25mL volumetric flask, add 5% glucose solution, shake to disperse evenly, and continue to dilute with 5% glucose solution to the mark, mixing well. Take 5mL of the above solution and place it in an ultrafiltration centrifuge tube (brand: Millipore, 100KD), centrifuge at 2500rpm at 20℃ for 30 minutes, and the filtered clear liquid is the unencapsulated sample solution; separately take the above diluted solution, dissolve it in diluent (chloroform:methanol = 2:1), and use this as the total free and encapsulated sample to determine the encapsulation rate. The encapsulation rate results for different formulations are shown in the table below.

[0125]

[0126]

[0127] The results showed that different phospholipid combinations, phospholipid mass ratios, and drug-lipid ratios had a significant impact on the encapsulation efficiency, with formulations 1-36 exhibiting significant differences.

[0128] Example 2: Preparation of Ropivacaine Compositions with Different Aqueous Solvents

[0129] Ropivacaine lipid lyophilized formulations were prepared according to the preparation method of Formula 13 above. Different hydration solvents were used: water for injection, 0.9% NaCl solution, 5% glucose solution, and 10% sucrose solution. Hydration was carried out at 60℃ and 1500 rpm for 2-10 min. The detection results of the ropivacaine lipid composition after hydration are shown in the table below. Hydration with different solvents yields mixtures with different free / encapsulated ratios, suitable for different clinical needs.

[0130] The encapsulation efficiency test method is as described in Example 1 above. Particle size test method: Take 100 μL of the hydrated sample solution, add 900 μL of 5% glucose solution, vortex mix, and use 5% glucose solution as the dispersant. Use a wet method to determine the particle size by stirring at 2500 rpm and adding the sample dropwise to make the opacity about 10% (between 2% and 20%).

[0131]

[0132] The results showed that different hydration solvents resulted in significant differences in encapsulation efficiency. For ropivacaine, 5% glucose solution and 10% sucrose solution were used as hydration solvents to achieve better encapsulation efficiency.

[0133] Example 3: Preparation of ropivacaine phospholipid gels with different lipid concentrations

[0134] Ropivacaine lipid lyophilized formulations were prepared according to the preparation method of the above-mentioned formulation 30. Different volumes of 5% glucose solution were used for hydration at 60°C and 1500 rpm for 2-5 min. After hydration, ropivacaine hydrochloride phospholipid gels with different lipid concentrations were formed, and their viscosities varied greatly. The results are shown in the table below.

[0135] The encapsulation efficiency / particle size detection method is as described in Examples 1 and 2 above.

[0136] In vitro release assay: Accurately transfer 1 mL of the hydrated sample solution using a syringe and weigh it. Add the sample to a glass slide, place the slide in a dissolution vessel (containing 500 mL of hydrated PBS, equilibrated to 37 ± 0.5 °C), weigh the syringe again, and record the sample volume. Set the rotation speed to 25 rpm and take samples at 0.25 h, 0.5 h, 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, 6 h, 8 h, 24 h, and 48 h for measurement. After each sampling, add release medium (under this release method, ropivacaine hydrochloride solution is 100% released after 0.25 h sampling).

[0137]

[0138] Example 4. Pharmacokinetic Study in Rats

[0139] Ropivacaine hydrochloride phospholipid gel was prepared according to prescription 13; ropivacaine hydrochloride injection was prepared using 5% glucose solution (control group before dosage form modification, API concentration the same as prescription 13); commercially available bupivacaine liposome injection Expareel was used as a positive control group for animal experiments. The experimental animals were SD rats, 5 rats per group. The injection was administered subcutaneously at a dose of 40 mg / kg. Blood samples were collected at 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours after administration for content detection. The pharmacokinetic (PK) results are shown in the table below. Figure 1 As shown.

[0140]

[0141] Example 5. Analgesic Efficacy Experiment - Guinea Pig Acupuncture Model

[0142] Ropivacaine hydrochloride phospholipid gel was prepared according to prescriptions 42 and 44; ropivacaine hydrochloride injection was prepared using 5% glucose solution (control group before dosage form improvement, API concentration same as prescription 42); commercially available bupivacaine liposome injection Expareel was used as a positive control group, and a blank liposome gel group (lipid concentrations same as prescriptions 42 and 44) ​​was set up to conduct pharmacodynamic experiments on a guinea pig acupuncture model.

[0143] The experimental animals were guinea pigs (approximately 500g). The fur on the backs of the guinea pigs was shaved before the experiment. Six areas were drawn on the back of each guinea pig, as shown below. Figure 2 As shown, the sensitivity of each area to acupuncture was confirmed through acupuncture.

[0144] Three animals in each experimental group received intradermal injection of medication at a dose of 7 mg / kg. The location of wheals was marked after administration. The response of each area to acupuncture was measured at 0.25 h, 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, 6 h, 8 h, 10 h, 12 h, 24 h, 30 h, 48 h, 52 h, and 72 h post-administration. The number of positive reactions (the number of times no reaction occurred out of 6 acupuncture needles) was recorded. The experimental results are as follows: Figure 3 As shown.

[0145] Eight hours after administration of ropivacaine hydrochloride injection, the pain threshold decreased by approximately 50%. Ten hours after administration of the positive control bupivacaine liposome injection, the pain threshold decreased by more than 50%. Twenty-four hours after administration of ropivacaine hydrochloride phospholipid gel, the pain threshold decreased by more than 50%. The analgesic and sustained-release effects of ropivacaine hydrochloride phospholipid gel under this pharmacodynamic model were superior to those of the positive control bupivacaine liposome injection.

[0146] The 200 mg / mL lipid concentration (viscous) after hydration was superior to the 150 mg / mL lipid concentration (good fluidity) after hydration in terms of the duration of analgesic effect.

[0147] Example 7. Cryo-scanning electron microscopy observation

[0148] Ropivacaine hydrochloride phospholipid gel was prepared according to prescription 39, hydrated and diluted with 5% glucose injection, and then observed by cryo-scanning electron microscopy. The results are as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the product exhibits a multilayered liposome structure.

[0149] Example 8: Preparation of phospholipid gel compositions with different active ingredients from different phospholipid types

[0150] Following the preparation method of Example 1, phospholipid gel compositions with different active ingredients were prepared using different negatively charged phospholipids SPA and DSPG-Na. After hydration with 5% glucose solution, a phospholipid gel formulation with a lipid concentration of 170 mg / ml was formed. The ratio of hydration solvent to active pharmaceutical ingredient was 0.1-1:1, specifically 0.5:1. The encapsulation efficiency was tested according to the method described in Example 1 and the in vitro release conditions (0.5% Tween 80 added to the release medium) described in Example 3. The results are shown in the table below.

[0151]

[0152]

[0153] No significant differences were observed in the properties and encapsulation efficiency of the hydrated formulations of different negatively charged phospholipids SPA and DSPG-Na. The results of the in vitro release test using the negatively charged phospholipid DSPG-Na formulation are as follows (under this release method, the ropivacaine hydrochloride / meloxicam / dexamethasone sodium phosphate / dexamethasone palmitate solution was 100% released after sampling at 0.5 h). The single and compound formulations of phospholipid gels prepared with different active ingredients all showed significant sustained-release effects in in vitro release.

[0154]

[0155]

[0156] Comparative Examples 1-3

[0157] Encapsulation efficiency test results:

[0158]

[0159] The encapsulation efficiency of Comparative Examples 2 and 3 decreased significantly, indicating that the composition of lipids has a key influence on the encapsulation efficiency. In addition, the lipid formulations of the comparative examples were very difficult to hydrate, which is not conducive to preparation. Therefore, in vitro release tests were further conducted on Comparative Examples 2 and 3 and Formulation 30.

[0160] Results of in vitro release rate test:

[0161]

[0162]

[0163] The results showed that, compared with formulation 30, the sustained-release effect of the products prepared in comparative examples 2-3 was significantly reduced, indicating that the lipid composition has a key influence on the sustained-release effect. Under the specific lipid composition and ratio of the present invention, both the encapsulation efficiency and the sustained-release effect can be improved simultaneously.

[0164] The above description is merely an exemplary illustration of the scope of protection claimed by this invention. Those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications to this invention based on the disclosed content, and such changes should also fall within the scope of protection claimed by this application.
