Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of microneedle patch preparations for transdermal administration, and in particular to a coated drug-carrying microneedle patch and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] The design concept of microneedles is to use micro-machining methods to make needle-forming materials into micron-level needles. When the needle body penetrates the skin and mucous membranes, it will not touch the nerve tissue, thus achieving painless drug delivery. Microneedle drug delivery has many advantages, such as painless drug delivery, which can greatly increase user compliance; microneedle drug delivery has extremely low professional technical requirements, and patients can administer the drug themselves; the inherent low humidity environment of microneedles can improve the stability of drugs; the drugs in microneedles exist in solid form, which is convenient for transportation and storage, etc.
[0003] Microneedles include soluble microneedles and insoluble microneedles (water-insoluble microneedles). The current development of soluble microneedles is limited by the difficulty in mass production, while water-insoluble microneedles are developing the fastest because they can be quickly mass-produced through many micro-processing technologies, such as injection molding, 3D printing, etc. However, due to the limitations of mass production processes and preparation materials, the active ingredients cannot be directly loaded into the needle body during the preparation of the microneedles. Therefore, there are two ways of administering water-insoluble microneedles when they are used: the first is to treat the skin with blank microneedles, apply the drug to the treated skin, and the drug freely diffuses into the skin through the pores treated with the microneedles; the second is to coat the active ingredients on the surface of the needle body after the blank microneedles are produced, that is, to coat the microneedles, and then administer the drug to the skin. Of these two methods, the first one has the defect of inaccurate drug administration, so it is basically not used in the pharmaceutical field. The second one is widely used because of the accurate drug dosage, but the coating has defects such as low drug loading.
[0004] The microneedle body is small, the surface area is small, and the coated microneedle body cannot be loaded with drugs. The coated microneedle has the limitation of low drug loading. Ordinary coating prescriptions, processes and methods have many defects. For example, in order to increase the drug loading, the number of coatings and the coating amount are increased, which will make the tip of the needle body thicker, the needle is not sharp, and the puncture effect is poor, resulting in inaccurate dosage or even drug delivery failure. For example, ordinary coating processes will cause coating drug loading failure, that is, the solution infiltrates into the base of the needle body, which will make the dosage inaccurate. Spray coating or micro-manipulation of drug loading will greatly increase manufacturing time and mass production costs, which is extremely unfavorable for industrial production. Therefore, it is urgent to develop low-cost coating prescriptions and coating methods suitable for water-insoluble microneedle coating and that meet the needs of high-dose drug loading.

[0295] Specific test indicators and test results are shown in Table 1:
[0296] Table 1
[0297]
[0298]
[0299]
[0300]
[0301]
[0302] Among them, after drying, the microneedles of Comparative Examples 1, 4, 11, and 12 had too thick coating layers, and the needle bodies could not effectively puncture the skin.
[0303] When the microneedles of Comparative Examples 2 and 5 are soaked in the coating liquid, the coating liquid is adsorbed onto the base, and the solution coated on the needle tip further migrates to the base due to surface tension.
[0304] Among them, in the coating liquid formulations of Comparative Examples 3 and 10, the solubility of the drug therein will be greatly reduced.
[0305] Among them, after the microneedle of Comparative Example 6 was soaked in the coating liquid, no air flow was introduced. Due to the influence of gravity and the inability to dry quickly, the coating liquid gathered at the needle tip. After drying, the needle tip part appeared in a droplet shape. The rear section of the needle body of the coating layer was extremely thin, and the coating layer was displaced 60 microns toward the needle tip, resulting in poor puncture effect.
[0306] Among them, after the microneedles of comparative example 7 were coated and dried, the coating layer was still evenly coated on the needle body, but compared with the results in Example 8, the coating layer migrated 60 μm along the needle body toward the base, which made the coating height of the coating layer on the microneedle body reach 430 μm, while the coating layer in Example 8 did not migrate, and the coating height of the coating layer on the microneedle body was 370 μm. This indicator was detected by SEM. After the microneedles obtained in comparative example 7 were administered to the back skin of mice, due to skin elasticity factors, the latter half of the needle body was not completely administered, and 10% of the drug load remained on the needle body, while the microneedles in Example 8 were completely administered. The detection method of this test result is to dissolve the microneedles after administration again and quantitatively determine them by Bradford method.
[0307] Among them, the active pharmaceutical ingredients carried by the microneedles of Comparative Examples 8 and 9 were greatly reduced after drying.
[0308] According to the results of Comparative Example 1, Comparative Example 2, Comparative Example 4, Example 8, Comparative Example 10, Comparative Example 11, Comparative Example 12 and Example 16, when the coating matrix material is hyaluronic acid with a molecular weight of 250-1000KDa and polyvinylpyrrolidone K30, if the coating matrix material concentration is higher than 45%, the needle body coating layer is thick, the puncture effect is poor, and the clinical needs cannot be met. If the coating matrix material concentration is lower than 5%, the coating liquid will be adsorbed onto the needle base, resulting in coating failure; when the coating matrix material is hyaluronic acid with a molecular weight lower than 250KDa and PVP with a molecular weight lower than K30, a high concentration of the matrix material is required to be suitable for coating, otherwise it will be directly adsorbed onto the base. Under this condition, the thickness of the microneedle coating layer is thick, the puncture effect is poor, and the needs are still not met; when the coating matrix material is polyvinylpyrrolidone with a molecular weight higher than 1000KDa and a molecular weight higher than K30, due to its excessively high molecular weight, the solubility of the drug in the system drops sharply, resulting in the microneedle drug loading being too low and unable to meet the needs.
[0309] In summary, compared with ordinary coated microneedles, the microneedle patch prepared by the present invention has an intact needle body morphology and excellent puncture performance. The surface of the needle body can carry more active ingredients. The coating layer is evenly distributed on the coated part of the needle body and will not migrate. It can meet the loading requirements of a variety of different active ingredients and has good universality. The preparation method suitable for the microneedle patch of the present invention is simple and fast, has good repeatability, meets the coating and drug loading requirements of different types of water-insoluble microneedles, and is extremely suitable for industrial production.
