Description

A low water-soluble drug crystal and preparation method and use thereof TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of medicine, and particularly relates to a low water-soluble drug crystal and preparation method and use thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002]

[0003] Compound Z, the structure of which is shown in the formula above, is a second-generation monoamine oxidase inhibitor, and can block the decomposition of neurotransmitter dopamine, and plays an anti-Parkinson role in a dopaminergic motor function disorder model by increasing dopamine levels and indirectly increasing dopaminergic activity.

[0004] Compound Z is in the form of an oral tablet of a mesylate salt in the currently marketed drug preparation. Compound Z mesylate is classified as type III in the BCS classification of biological drugs, has high solubility and low permeability, and an oral tablet is prone to peak-valley phenomenon, which causes adverse reactions, and on-off side effects in patients in the later stage after administration; if the compound Z mesylate is made into a long-acting sustained-release preparation, its high solubility poses a great challenge to the prescription and process. Therefore, developing a low water-soluble salt or ester of compound Z, or further making it into a long-acting sustained-release preparation, has significant clinical value and advantages, and can effectively reduce the blood drug concentration fluctuation caused by missed medication or drug withdrawal, thereby further reducing the probability of “end-of-dose phenomenon” and “on-off phenomenon”.

[0095] Stability Investigation:

[0096] 1) Influencing Factor Experiment

[0097] Take compound Z pamoate Form I (crystallization stirring for 24 h in Example 1) and amorphous compound Z pamoate (crystallization stirring for 3 h in Example 1), and evenly spread on the bottom of the weighing bottle. Each time condition has two parallel samples. The samples are placed at 50℃, 60℃, 75% RH, 92.5% RH and strong light (5100 Lux) for 5 days and 10 days, and the samples are taken for inspection of properties, content, moisture, related substances, XRD (only for 10-day samples), and the experimental results are shown in Tables 7, 8, Figs. 12-15.

[0099] Moreover, the related substances of compound Z pamoate Form I do not change significantly under the conditions of high temperature and high humidity, and only increase significantly under the condition of strong light; and the related substances of amorphous compound Z pamoate increase significantly higher than those of compound Z pamoate Form I under the conditions of high temperature, high humidity and strong light.

[0100] 2) Accelerated Experiment

[0101] Take the samples (with inner packaging + outer packaging), and place them under the conditions of 40±2℃ and 75±5% RH for testing, and take samples at 1, 2, 3 and 6 months during the test period, and send them for inspection of properties, content, moisture, related substances and XRD, and the experimental results are shown in Tables 9 and 10.

[0102] The XRD detection results show that compound Z pamoate Form I does not change into another crystal form under the test conditions of acceleration for 6 months, and the amorphous compound Z pamoate remains amorphous, and Fig. 16 is the XRD spectrum of the sample at 6 months. Moreover, the related substances of compound Z pamoate Form I do not increase significantly, and the related substances of amorphous compound Z pamoate increase significantly.

[0103] 3) Long-term Experiment

[0104] Take the samples (with inner packaging + outer packaging), and place them under the conditions of 25±2℃ and 60±5% RH for testing, and take samples at 3, 6, 9, 12, 18 and 24 months during the test period, and send them for inspection of properties, content, moisture, related substances and XRD, and the experimental results are shown in Tables 11 and 12.

Moreover, the related substances of the compound Z pamoate Form I do not increase significantly, while the related substances of the amorphous compound Z pamoate increase significantly.

[0106] According to the results of the comprehensive influence factor test, the accelerated test and the long-term test, the compound Z pamoate Form I is more stable than the amorphous compound Z pamoate.

[0107] Example 5

[0108] The compound Z mesylate and the compound Z pamoate prepared by stirring for 3 h, 6 h and 24 h in Example 1 were used as drugs, and poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (9505, 25 KDa) was used as a carrier to prepare long-acting sustained-release microspheres, and the drug encapsulation rates were investigated. The specific method was as follows: 8 parts of the carrier were dissolved in 8.5 times of ethyl acetate, then 2 parts of the drug were added and stirred uniformly, then 1% PVA aqueous solution was quickly injected, homogenized at 2000 rpm for 5 min, and then the organic solvent was volatilized by stirring for 6 h. The solid was collected by filtration, washed with water, and freeze-dried to obtain long-acting sustained-release microspheres.

[0109] The content of the salt of compound Z in the microspheres was detected, and the drug encapsulation rate (actual content / theoretical content*100%) was calculated.

[0110] The burst release rate determination method was as follows: 30 mg of the microspheres were dispersed in 350 mL of 0.01 M PBS buffer solution with pH 7.4, and incubated at 37°C with shaking for 24 h. The content of the salt of compound Z in the supernatant was detected, and the drug burst release rate (total drug amount in the supernatant / total drug amount in 30 mg of the microspheres*100%) was calculated.

[0111] The results shown in Table 13 show that the drug encapsulation rates and burst release rates of the microspheres prepared from different salts of compound Z are different. In particular, when the solubilities of the salts of compound Z are quite different, the differences in the encapsulation rates and burst release rates are also quite large. The smaller the solubility of the salt of compound Z, the higher the drug encapsulation rate, and the lower the burst release rate on the first day. Unexpectedly, the burst release rate of the microspheres prepared from the compound Z pamoate Form I is only 26.3% of that of the microspheres prepared from the amorphous compound Z pamoate, and does not exceed 5.6%.

[0113] Example 6

[0114] The microspheres of Example 5-4 were suspended in 0.01% aqueous sodium carboxymethylcellulose and administered to New Zealand rabbits by single intramuscular injection at a dose of 0.5 mg / kg. The blood concentration-time curve over 28 days is shown in Figure 18. The results show that the use of Compound Z pamoate Form I in combination with a sustained release material can produce an anti-Parkinson's drug composition that is released in vivo over a period of more than 2 weeks, and that the drug concentration fluctuation is very small. This composition is expected to improve patient compliance, effectively reduce the blood concentration fluctuation caused by missed doses or drug withdrawal, and thus reduce the probability of the occurrence of end-of-dose and on-off phenomena.

[0115] The above examples are the preferred embodiments of the present application, but the embodiments of the present application are not limited to the above examples, and any changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, simplifications, etc. made without departing from the spirit and principles of the present application are equivalent replacement methods and are included in the scope of the present application.
