Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of pharmaceutical preparations, specifically relating to a deslanoside injection and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Deslanoside is a cardiotonic drug with the chemical name 3-[[O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→4)-O-2,6-dideoxy-β-D-ribohepyranosyl-(1→4)-O-2,6-dideoxy-β-D-ribohepyranosyl-(1→4)-O-2,6-dideoxy-β-D-ribohepyranosyl]oxo]-12,14-dihydroxy-cardoster-20(22)-enolactone (see: Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2015 edition, Part II). The main marketed formulation is deslanoside injection, which is used for heart failure, acute and chronic systolic heart failure, atrial fibrillation, paroxysmal tachycardia, etc., with good efficacy.

[0003] Literature reports that with the widespread use of deslanoside injection, adverse reactions such as arrhythmia, poor appetite, nausea, and vomiting have gradually increased. This is most likely caused by impurities and / or related substances in the injection, thus affecting the safety of deslanoside injection (Li Geyuan et al. Study on impurities in deslanoside injection [J]. Pharmaceutical and Clinical Research, 2011, 19(6):508-510.).

[0004] A study published in CN 112336687 A found that the deslanoside injection (deslanoside 0.2g, ethanol 80g, glycerin 175g, plus water for injection to 1000ml) of a product marketed in Japan had a pH of 6.91 and total impurities of 0.15% before high-temperature sterilization. After high-temperature sterilization at 121℃, the pH was 6.03 and the total impurities increased significantly to 22.3%.

[0005] The results of CN 112336687 A indicate that deslanoside injection is highly sensitive to temperature. High-temperature conditions during preparation and storage may lead to an increase in impurities and / or related substances in the injection. The proposed improvement is to add acidic substances such as hydrochloric acid, phosphoric acid, or sodium dihydrogen phosphate before high-temperature sterilization, thereby reducing the pH value of the injection before high-temperature sterilization from the original 6.91 to about 6.0 or lower, which can reduce the total impurity content after high-temperature sterilization at 121℃.

[0006] CN 112156069 A discloses a production process for deslanoside injection, which involves filling a mixture containing 0.2 mg / ml deslanoside, 0.076 g / ml ethanol, 0.149 g / ml glycerol and water for injection; wherein nitrogen purging is performed before and after filling.

[0007] The results of CN 112156069 A indicate that the total impurities after 10 days of high-temperature (60±2℃) storage without nitrogen filling were 4.0%, while the total impurities after 10 days of high-temperature (60±2℃) storage before and after filling with nitrogen were 3.2%, which is only slightly lower and does not seem to have a greater impact than the packaging material (boron ampoule) (see: Examples 1 and 2). The control of impurities and / or related substances is not ideal.

[0008] In view of this, the present invention is hereby proposed. Summary of the Invention
