Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of pharmaceutical preparations, and in particular relates to a novel long-acting preparation and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Y-3 is a small molecule PSD-95 inhibitor that is poorly soluble in water and has the activity of dissociating the coupling of PSD-95 and nNOS. Preclinical efficacy and toxicology studies have shown that the efficacy of Y-32mg / kg is equivalent to the same dose of edaravone and dextroborneol (a neuroprotectant launched in 2020). It is also safe and has no obvious dependence, and has potential application value in the treatment of pathological neuralgia. However, due to its poor solubility in water, strong photosensitivity, and reduced stability at high temperatures, it is mostly used clinically for indications requiring long-term administration. Therefore, it is of great significance to prepare a long-acting sustained-release preparation.

[0003] The present invention has discovered that a certain amount of glyceryl monolinoleate (GMLO) and soybean lecithin (SPC) can be thoroughly mixed in a certain amount of ethanol (ETOH) or N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) to form a clear, fluid liquid that effectively dissolves the hydrophobic drug ZL006-05 (codenamed Y-3, hereinafter referred to as Y-3). When exposed to aqueous components, such as body fluids, the liquid formulation forms a gel, thereby achieving sustained drug release. After administration via subcutaneous, intramuscular, or adipose injection, the gel forms in vivo, continuously releasing the active substance, thereby reducing the number of dosing cycles.
