Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of biomedical technology, and in particular to a drug for preventing stenosis after endoscopic submucosal dissection of early esophageal cancer and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Esophageal cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in the world. Its early detection and treatment are crucial to prognosis. Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is the preferred treatment for early esophageal cancer. It uses endoscopic minimally invasive technology to completely remove lesions confined to the mucosal layer or submucosal layer to achieve radical treatment. ESD has the advantages of less trauma, faster recovery, and preservation of esophageal function. The postoperative recovery rate can reach more than 90%, and it can provide accurate pathological evaluation to guide subsequent treatment.

[0003] Indications for ESD include: tumor diameter ≤ 3 cm, invasion depth ≤ submucosal layer (SM1), no risk of lymph node metastasis, and lesion range suitable for endoscopic operation. The surgical process covers preoperative evaluation, submucosal injection dissection, wound treatment and postoperative follow-up, and the resection range must be strictly controlled to avoid complications such as stenosis. Studies have shown that the risk of metachronous multiple primary cancers after ESD is related to the length of the lesion, the spotty iodine-unstained area, and inflammatory indicators, and needs to be monitored through regular endoscopic review.

[0004] Although ESD technology has significantly improved the cure rate of early esophageal cancer, it still needs to be combined with lifestyle intervention (such as quitting smoking and limiting alcohol) to reduce the risk of recurrence, and develop individualized comprehensive treatment plans for high-risk patients.

[0005] Existing methods for preventing stenosis after ESD surgery have significant defects:

[0006] 1. Limitations of single-target therapy: Traditional hormonal anti-inflammatory drugs (such as glucocorticoids) can only control inflammatory responses in the short term and cannot inhibit fibrosis caused by scar formation;

[0007] 2. Physical therapy has serious side effects: dilatation and stent placement are prone to cause secondary injury and infection risks;

[0008] 3. High cost of biological agents: Growth factor repair agents are expensive and have poor stability.

[0009] The present invention innovatively combines anti-fibrosis, plant-derived anti-inflammatory and tissue repair components to construct a multi-pathway synergistic system, thereby fundamentally blocking the pathological process of stenosis formation. Summary of the invention

[0010] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention first provides a drug for preventing stenosis after endoscopic submucosal dissection of early esophageal cancer, comprising an anti-fibrosis component, a plant anti-inflammatory component and a tissue repair component of a biological extract.

[0011] In certain embodiments, the anti-fibrotic component is selected from colchicine or becipiril.

[0012] In certain embodiments, the botanical anti-inflammatory ingredient is selected from tanshinone ⅡA or curcumin.

[0013] In certain embodiments, the tissue repair component is selected from collagen peptides or umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell extracts.

[0014] In certain embodiments, the mass ratio of the anti-fibrosis component, the plant anti-inflammatory component and the tissue repair component of the biological extract is (5-30):(10-40):(20-40).

[0015] In certain embodiments, the drug further comprises xanthan gum and hypromellose as sustained-release carriers.

[0016] The present invention also provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned medicine, which comprises a two-step process of nanoemulsification and pH-responsive coating.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0018] The present invention innovatively combines anti-fibrosis, plant-derived anti-inflammatory and tissue repair components to construct a multi-pathway synergistic system, thereby fundamentally blocking the pathological process of stenosis formation. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
