Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of pharmaceutical chemistry, and specifically relates to a refenacin triphenylacetate crystal form and a preparation method thereof. The crystal form has good chemical stability and crystal purity, is easy to prepare on a large scale, can be better applied to the preparation of pharmaceutical preparations and large-scale production, and has broad application prospects. Background Art

[0002] Revenacin is a long-acting muscarinic antagonist with a structural formula as shown in Formula 1. It is mainly administered by inhalation solution spray to improve lung function, reduce clinical symptoms of COPD, and prevent further deterioration of the lesion. It is used for the maintenance treatment of COPD patients. In 2018, the FDA approved Revenacin for the maintenance treatment of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). COPD is a progressive, irreversible, persistent airway obstructive lung disease with no single cause. It is also a general term for chronic bronchitis and emphysema. COPD is believed to affect approximately 328 million people worldwide. It is already the third leading cause of death in the United States. By 2020, it will become the third leading cause of death worldwide. There is a serious unmet need for COPD treatment drugs.

[0004] The original research company has two crystal patents authorized in China, namely CN101163677B and CN102470130B. Among them, CN101163677B discloses three salt forms of diphosphate, monosulfate and hydrogen oxalate, and protects diphosphate. CN102470130B discloses four crystal forms of free base crystal form I, crystal form II, crystal form III and crystal form IV. The DSC peak temperatures of crystal form I and crystal form II are 102.7℃ and 98.64℃ respectively, and the DSC peak temperatures of crystal form III and crystal form IV are 123.1℃ and 118.8℃ respectively. The patent protects crystal form III, which is an anhydrous form with an acceptable degree of hygroscopicity and a high melting point. The patent will expire in China on July 13, 2030.

[0005] Salt formation can improve the physicochemical properties of drug molecules, significantly increase solubility and dissolution rate, and is one of the effective means to improve its drugability. It can also improve drug compliance, improve drug stability, and reduce its adverse reactions. When there are problems with the stability of free bases or free acids, salt forms are the preferred option. For ionizable molecules, salt forms can improve the physicochemical properties of compounds, such as solubility, crystallinity, hygroscopicity, melting point, and stability, which can not only improve bioavailability, but also improve solid-state stability.

[0006] The diphosphate, monosulfate, and hydrogen oxalate disclosed in the original research patent CN101163677B are all obtained by unconventional means such as freeze drying, and mass production cannot be achieved. The subsequent original research patents are all free forms, and there is no literature report on other salt forms, indicating that it is difficult to form a salt of refenacin. The inventor of this application screened 39 acids, and only triphenylacetic acid can form a salt with refenacin, but the yield is low. The diphenylacetic acid, which is very similar in structure, cannot form a salt with refenacin. After the deep optimization of the conditions for the formation of salts of triphenylacetic acid, refenacin triphenylacetic acid can be stably prepared. The solid state of refenacin triphenylacetic acid finally prepared is good, and TG, DSC, PXRD, mass spectrum, hydrogen spectrum, and carbon spectrum all show that it has formed a salt, and there is currently no relevant literature or patent report on this salt form.

[0007] The drug has been disclosed in various salt forms, but there is no report on the triphenylacetic acid crystal form of the drug. The inventors of the present application obtained the triphenylacetic acid salt form of the drug in the process of preparing revenacin. This crystal form has a high melting point, good chemical stability and crystal purity, is easy to prepare on a large scale, can be better applied to the preparation of pharmaceutical preparations and large-scale production, and has broad application prospects.

[0120]

[0121] The fine particle dose and fine particle fraction of the inhalation powder prepared with refenacin triphenylacetate were significantly higher than those of the inhalation powder prepared with refenacin diphosphate and crystalline form III.

[0123] Male SD rats (SPF grade) were used in this embodiment, aged 9 months and weighing 180-220g. During the whole experiment, the rats were free to eat and drink.

The drug was administered by oral and nasal inhalation in rats, and the dosage was set to 375μg / kg (in terms of refenacin).

[0124] 0.5 ml of venous blood was collected from the fundus venous plexus at 0.1 h, 0.2 h, 0.5 h, 2 h, 6 h, 12 h, 24 h, 48 h, 60 h, 72 h, 96 h and 120 h after administration and placed in a pre-labeled EDTA (4 mM) anticoagulated EP tube. After whole blood collection, it was placed on ice and then centrifuged at 4 ° C, 8000 rpm, 5 min to collect plasma, transferred to a 96-well plate, and stored at -20 ° C until LC-MS / MS detection. The drug concentration in EDTA (4 mM) anticoagulated SD rat plasma was determined using the LC / MS / MS (Agilent 6460) method. WinNonlin 5.2 software was used to calculate the relevant pharmacokinetic parameters of the concentration at each time point after administration of each group according to the statistical distance theory. See Table 8 for details.

[0126]

[0127] The pharmacokinetic results in rats showed that revenacin triphenylacetate inhalation powder had the lowest peak blood concentration C max and AUC 0-∞ , indicating that the safety of revifenacin triphenylacetate inhalation powder is significantly better than that of revifenacin diphosphate inhalation powder and revifenacin form III inhalation powder.

[0128] Example 14 Tissue distribution of different crystalline forms of revenacin inhalation powder in rats

[0129] Preparation selection: revifenacin triphenylacetate inhalation powder prepared in Examples 10 and 11, revifenacin diphosphate inhalation powder, revifenacin crystal form III inhalation powder

[0130] Dosing frequency: Single dose

[0131] Route of administration: Inhalation through the mouth and nose

[0132] Experimental animals: SD rats

[0133] Grouping: A total of 108 SD rats were divided into 375 μg / kg (calculated as refenacin) dose group of refenacin triphenylacetate inhalation powder, 375 μg / kg (calculated as refenacin) dose group of refenacin diphosphate inhalation powder and 375 μg / kg (calculated as refenacin) dose group of refenacin crystal form III inhalation powder, 36 rats in each group. The drug concentrations of animal bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, lung tissue, main trachea and bronchus, bladder, heart, liver and kidney were collected at 0.5 h after administration.

[0135]

[0136] Revenacin is a long-acting anticholinergic drug that has similar affinity to the subtypes of sarcosine receptors M1-M5. In the airway, it exhibits pharmacological effects by inhibiting smooth muscle M3 receptors to cause bronchial dilation. Smooth muscle M3 receptors are mainly located in the trachea and bronchi and are the main pharmacodynamic site of Revenacin. The above-mentioned animal tissue distribution test shows that 0.5h after inhalation administration, the concentration of refenacin triphenylacetate inhalation powder in the lung tissue, main trachea and bronchus at the drug effect site is significantly higher than that of refenacin diphosphate inhalation powder and refenacin crystal form III inhalation powder, while in the bladder, heart and other places where clinical side effects (such as urinary retention) may occur, the concentration of refenacin triphenylacetate inhalation powder is significantly lower than that of the other two crystal forms of refenacin inhalation powder, indicating that refenacin triphenylacetate inhalation powder may produce a higher bronchodilator effect than refenacin diphosphate inhalation powder and refenacin crystal form III inhalation powder and produce lower clinical side effects.
