Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of pharmaceutical preparations, and specifically relates to an insulin aspart 50 injection and a method for preparing the insulin aspart 50 injection. Background Art
[0002] Diabetes is mainly divided into type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes. Type 1 diabetes is also called insulin-dependent diabetes. The cause is that the body's immune system attacks the beta cells that produce insulin in the body, which eventually leads to the inability to produce insulin in the body. Patients with type 1 diabetes need to continuously inject exogenous insulin to control blood sugar in the body. Type 2 diabetes is called non-insulin-dependent diabetes. The main cause is insulin resistance (that is, the cells no longer bind to insulin, which reduces the amount of glucose that enters the cells to participate in heat generation and increases the amount of glucose left in the blood). Patients with type 2 diabetes can usually take oral hypoglycemic drugs to help control blood sugar in the body. However, studies have shown that for patients with type 2 diabetes, as long as blood sugar rises to a level sufficient to diagnose diabetes, insufficient insulin secretion becomes the main contradiction. Therefore, almost all patients with type 2 diabetes need to use exogenous insulin to treat and control blood sugar during the course of the disease. In other words, insulin treatment is almost the most basic and important means for all diabetic patients to control blood sugar.
[0003] According to the source, medicinal insulin is mainly divided into: 1) animal insulin, such as bovine insulin (extracted from bovine pancreas, there are three amino acids in the molecular structure that are different from human insulin, the efficacy is slightly worse, and it is more prone to allergies or insulin resistance), porcine insulin (extracted from porcine pancreas, there is only one amino acid in the molecule that is different from human insulin, so the efficacy is better than bovine insulin and the side effects are also less than bovine insulin); 2) human insulin, such as semi-biosynthetic human insulin (porcine insulin is enzymatically converted to convert the 30th position of the B chain of alanine Ala into human threonine Thr) and recombinant human insulin; 3) insulin analogs.
[0004] According to the duration of action, insulin can be divided into: 1) Short-acting insulin: the most commonly used regular insulin, a colorless transparent liquid, takes effect 20 to 30 minutes after subcutaneous injection, has a peak effect of 2 to 4 hours, and lasts for 5 to 8 hours; 2) Intermediate-acting insulin: also called low-protamine zinc insulin, a milky white turbid liquid, takes effect 1.5 to 4 hours, has a peak effect of 6 to 10 hours, and lasts for about 12 to 14 hours; 3) Long-acting insulin: also called protamine zinc insulin, also a milky white turbid liquid, has a super-effective time of 3 to 4 hours, a peak effect of 14 to 20 hours, and lasts for about 24 to 36 hours; 4) Premixed insulin (biphasic insulin): short-acting insulin preparations and intermediate-acting insulin preparations are mixed in different proportions to produce premixed insulins with an onset time and duration of action between the two, such as protamine recombinant human insulin injection (premixed 30R), protamine recombinant human insulin injection (premixed 50R), aspart insulin 30 injection, and aspart insulin 50 injection.
[0005] The invention patent with authorization announcement number: CN101035557B provides a method for preparing aspart insulin 50 / 30 injection. In this method, disodium hydrogen phosphate dihydrate, sodium chloride, phenol, meta-cresol, glycerol and sodium hydroxide are mixed to form solution I, and then sodium chloride, meta-cresol, phenol, glycerol, protamine sulfate, AspB28 human insulin, hydrochloric acid and zinc chloride are mixed to form solution II. Finally, solution I and solution II are mixed to prepare aspart insulin injection. However, the preparation prepared by this method has the problem of uneven crystal form, and the stability of the preparation is insufficient and the efficacy is unstable. Summary of the invention
[0006] Based on the above problems in the prior art, the present invention provides an insulin aspart 50 injection, which includes insulin aspart, protamine sulfate, glycerol, meta-cresol, phenol, sodium chloride and disodium hydrogen phosphate.

[0009] Human insulin, such as semi-biosynthetic human insulin and recombinant human insulin;
[0010] Insulin analogs, such as insulin glargine, insulin aspart, and insulin degludec.
[0011] The "biphasic" in "biphasic insulin" means that this product contains two types of insulin with different onset times and duration of action, some of which are soluble insulin (rapid-acting) and some of which are low-protamine zinc insulin (intermediate-acting). For example, 30 / 70 means that 30% of the insulin injection is rapid-acting insulin and 70% is intermediate-acting insulin.
[0012] "Insulin Aspart 50 Injection" means: it contains 50% soluble insulin aspart and 50% intermediate-acting insulin aspart, with a faster onset of action and a more moderate duration of action.

[0040] Embodiment 2:
[0041] The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that the ingredients of the insulin aspart 50 injection are prepared in different proportions. Specifically, the dosage in step S1 is: 18 g glycerol, 1.75 g m-cresol, 1.5 g phenol, 0.9 g sodium chloride, 100,000 IU insulin aspart and 0.31 g protamine sulfate. The dosage of disodium hydrogen phosphate in step S2 is 1.25 g. The pH of the mixture of liquid A and liquid B is 7.4. The mixture is stirred evenly to obtain a suspension, i.e., the prepared insulin aspart 50 injection, which includes the following ingredients in the following proportions:

[0043] Embodiment three:
[0044] The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that the ingredients of the insulin aspart 50 injection are prepared in different proportions. Specifically, the dosage in step S1 is: 20 g glycerol, 2 g m-cresol, 2 g phenol, 1 g sodium chloride, 100,000 IU insulin aspart and 0.42 g protamine sulfate.

[0045] Insulin aspart: protamine sulfate: glycerol: m-cresol: phenol: sodium chloride: disodium hydrogen phosphate = 100000 IU: 0.42g: 20g: 2g: 2g: 1g: 1.5g.
[0046] The insulin aspart 50 injections prepared in the three examples were tested below.
[0047] Experiment 1: Verification of drug efficacy.
[0048] Experimental subjects: Healthy Beagle dogs
[0049] Experimental method: Using a random cross-administration scheme, 6 healthy Beagle dogs were subcutaneously injected with the same dose of short-acting insulin, intermediate-acting insulin, and insulin aspart 50 injection prepared in Examples 1 to 3, and dynamic blood samples were collected within 24 hours as designed. The blood glucose level of the animals was measured using a Roche blood glucose meter, and the relevant data were recorded as follows:
[0050]
[0051]
[0052] It can be seen from the above efficacy data that the onset time of the aspart insulin 50 injection provided by the present invention is shorter than that of conventional short-acting insulin, the time to reach the peak of action is shorter than that of short-acting insulin, the duration of action is longer than that of short-acting insulin and slightly shorter than that of intermediate-acting insulin, and it has the advantages of short onset time and long duration.
[0053] Test 2: Stability verification.
[0054] Generally, insulin preparations need to be stored in a refrigerator at 2-8°C. According to the current pharmacopoeia requirements, they need to be verified by destructive testing (influencing factor testing) within 28 days. The test data are shown below.
[0055] The insulin aspart 50 injection prepared in Examples 1 to 3 was placed under high temperature and light conditions for 30 days, and samples were taken for testing at 0, 7, 14 and 28 days, respectively. The test results are as follows:
[0056] Table 1: Stability data of insulin aspart 50 injection in Example 1
[0057]
[0058] Table 2: Stability data of insulin aspart 50 injection in Example 2
[0059]
[0060] Table 3: Stability data of insulin aspart 50 injection in Example 3
[0061]
[0062] From the above stability data, it can be seen that the content of the active ingredient (soluble insulin aspart) in the insulin aspart 50 injection prepared in the example is almost unchanged when placed for up to 28 days under high temperature (40±2°C) or light (4500±500lx) conditions, and the changes in the contents of other related impurities are also far better than the requirements of relevant drug quality standards, which proves that the drug prepared by the method of the present invention has very excellent stability and fully meets the requirements of relevant drug quality standards.
[0063] The present invention provides the above embodiments only to illustrate rather than limit the technical solutions of the present invention. Although the above embodiments describe the present invention in detail, relevant technical personnel in the field should understand that the present invention can be modified or equivalently replaced, but any modification and partial replacement that does not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention should be included in the scope of the claims of the present invention.
