Pharmaceutical composition containing nitroxoline, nitroxoline tablet, process for its preparation and its use

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The present invention relates to a phamaceutical composition comprising nitroxoline, a nitroxoline tablet, a method for preparing the same, and a composition for use thereofBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] Nitroxoline, the chemical name of which is 5-nitro-8-hydroxyquinoline, was developed as an oral antibiotic drug in the 1960s. It was mainly used for urinary system infections, and had a safe history of use before being replaced due to discovery and use of new antibiotics.

[0003] In recent years, new studies have found that nitroxoline can simultaneously inhibit the methionine aminopeptidase MetAP2 and the silence information regulator 2-related enzyme SIRT1 in vascular endothelial cells, and exert a synergistic inhibitory effect on tumor angiogenesis, as well as an inhibitory effect on the proliferation of tumor cells. Therefore, nitroxoline can be developed to treat tumors including bladder cancer.

[0004] As discussed above, nitroxoline can be used for various clinical indications, such as urinary tract infection and bladder cancer. When oral administration is applied to treat diseases, different clinical indications have different requirements for drug dissolution rate. For example, the treatment of urinary tract infection involves a short-term administration that requires the drug to take effect as soon as possible, so a relatively fast drug dissolution rate is ideal to better achieve an effective anti-infective effect; while the treatment of bladder cancer involves a long-term administration that requires a narrow variation range of blood drug concentration, so a relatively moderate drug dissolution rate is ideal.

[0005] At present, there is no pharmaceutical composition containing nitroxoline with a moderate dissolution rate in the prior art. Therefore, the development of pharmaceutical composition containing nitroxoline with a moderate dissolution rate is an urgent technical problem to be solved at present.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a phamaceutical composition containing nitroxoline, a nitroxoline tablet, a method for preparing the same, and a composition for use thereof, so as to overcome the defect that there is no pharmaceutical composition containing nitroxoline with a moderate dissolution rate in the prior art.

[0007] The inventors found in the research that nitroxoline has low solubility and slow dissolution in 0.1 mol / L hydrochloric acid, water and phosphate buffer (pH 6.8) at 37°C, and the properties of nitroxoline itself will have an adverse effect on obtaining a pharmaceutical composition containing nitroxoline with a moderate dissolution rate. After extensive research, the inventors found that pharmaceutical compositions containing nitroxoline with different dissolution rates can be obtained by controlling the particle size of active pharmaceutical ingredient (API). After further research, the inventors found that nitroxoline tablets with a moderate dissolution rate (the dissolution rate within 60 min is more than 75%) can be prepared when the particle size D 90 of nitroxoline is 10 to 100 µm. In addition, the resulting nitroxoline tablets have uniform content, narrow variation range in hardness, and good fluidity and compressibility.

[0086] The active pharmaceutical ingredient (nitroxoline) content in the nitroxoline tablets was determined according to high performance liquid chromatography (general rule 0512 of volume IV of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2015 Edition).

[0087] Content % refers to the ratio of the average content to the theoretical amount of the active pharmaceutical ingredient in each tablet.

[0088] The tablet weight difference % was calculated as follows: 20 tablets were randomly selected and weighed, and the average value was calculated; each tablet was weighed separately, and the percentage ratio of the difference between the weight of each tablet and the average value to the average value was calculated.

[0089] The content and weight difference of the nitroxoline tablets of the present invention are shown in Table 2 below. Table 2 Content and weight difference of the nitroxoline tablets of the present inventionSample informationContent / %Tablet weight difference / %Example 198.8-2.09~+1.42Example 2101.9-1.03~+1.08Example 3100.3-1.24~+1.67Example 498.4-7.28~+2.26

[0090] Conclusion: All results meet the requirements of Chinese Pharmacopoeia.Experimental Example 2 Dissolution rate test of the nitroxoline tablets of the present invention

[0091] The nitroxoline tablets prepared in Example 1 to 4 were used. The operation was conducted in accordance with the test method of dissolution rate and release rate (general rule 0931 of volume IV of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2015 Edition), 1000 mL of 0.1 mol / L hydrochloric acid solution was used as the dissolution medium, the rotation speed was 60 revolutions per minute. At 60 minutes, the solution was taken and filtered through a membrane filter. 2 mL of the resulting filtrate was added into a 10 mL volumetric flask, and diluted with 0.1mol / L hydrochloric acid solution until the liquid level reached the mark. The resulting solution was shaked well, and used as the test solution. An appropriate amount of nitroxoline reference substance was accurately weighed, dissolved in 0.1 mol / L hydrochloric acid solution, and quantitatively diluted to prepare a solution containing about 10 µg of nitroxoline per milliliter, as the reference substance solution. According to UV-visible spectrophotometry (general rule 0401 of volume IV of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2015 Edition) (UV-2700, Shimadzu), the absorbance was measured at a wavelength of 369 nm, and the dissolution rate of each tablet was calculated.

[0092] The dissolution profile of the nitroxoline tablets prepared in Examples 1 to 4 is shown in Figure 1. The dissolution rates at 60 min were 103%, 97%, 98% and 76%, respectively. The above dissolution rates are moderate, and the specific explanations are as follows: The relatively rapid dissolution of an immediate-release formulation generally means that the dissolution rate at 15 min, 30 min or 45 min is more than 75%. The relatively slow dissolution of an immediate-release preparation generally means that the dissolution rate at 90 min or 120 min is more than 75%. The dissolution rate of the nitroxoline tablets obtained in the present invention at 60 min is more than 75%, that is, the nitroxoline tablets prepared from the phamaceutical composition of the present invention is an immediate-release preparation having a moderate dissolution rate.

[0093] Nitroxoline belongs to BCS class II drugs, which have low solubility and high permeability. Generally, in formulations containing this type of drugs, the smaller the particle size of the drug, the faster the dissolution of the formulation. However, the inventors unexpectedly found that the smaller the particle size of nitroxoline, the slower the dissolution of the formulation. As can be seen from Figure 1, along with the reduction of the particle size of nitroxoline, the overall dissolution of the nitroxoline tablets of the present invention is slowed down. This is inconsistent with the dissolution profiles exhibited by conventional formulations containing such drugs. As for Examples 2 and 3, since the particle sizes of the two are relatively close, the two show relatively similar dissolution.Experimental Example 3 Hardness test of the nitroxoline tablets of the present invention

[0094] The drug was placed into a hardness tester (SY-3, Yellow Sea) according to the operation requirements, and subjected to hardness test. 10 tablets were measured each time, that is, serial numbers 1 to 10. The hardness of the nitroxoline tablets prepared in Examples 1 to 4 is shown in Table 3 below.

[0095] It can be seen from the results of hardness test in the table above that the hardness of the products of Examples 1 to 4 is within the expected range, and the variation range of hardness is narrow.Experimental Example 4 Fluidity test and compressibility test

[0096] In this experiment, the fluidity of the particles was evaluated by measuring the Carr Index of the mixed particles, and the compressibility of the particles was evaluated by the Hsusner Ratio.

[0097] Carr Index refers to the percentage difference between the tap density and the bulk density of the particles. ≤10% indicates fairly excellent fluidity, 11 to 15% indicates excellent fluidity, 16 to 20% indicates good fluidity, 21 to 25% indicates passable fluidity, 26 to 31% indicates poor fluidity, and above 32% indicates very poor fluidity.

[0098] Hsusner Ratio refers to the ratio of the tap density to the bulk density of the particles. 1.00 to 1.11 indicates fairly excellent compressibility, 1.12 to 1.18 indicates excellent compressibility, 1.19 to 1.25 indicates good compressibility, 1.26 to 1.34 indicates passable fluidity, 1.35 to 1.45 indicates poor fluidity, and 1.46 to 1.59 indicates very poor fluidity.

[0099] Test method of the bulk density: About 20 g of the granules were weighed, and slowly added into a 100 mL measuring cylinder. The measuring cylinder was initially inclined, and slowly placed upright after the addition, vibration should be avoided during the process. The volume was read, and the bulk density was obtained by dividing the particle weight by the bulk volume.

[0100] Test method of the tap density: After the bulk density test, the measuring cylinder was placed on a tapping instrument, and tapped for 500 times. The volume value was read, and the tap density was obtained by dividing the particle weight by the tap volume.

[0101] Before tableting, the total mixed granules of Examples 1 to 4 were taken and tested as described above. The resulting Carr Index and Hsusner Ratio are shown in Table 4 below. Table 4 Carr Index and Hsusner Ratio of the nitroxoline total mixed granules of Examples 1 to 4SampleParticle mass / (g)Bulk volume / (cm 3< )Bulk density / (g / m 3< )Tap volume / (cm 3< )Tap density / (g / m 3< )Carr Index / %Hsusner RatioExample 120.610143.00.479338.00.542413.21.13Example 220.869740.00.521733.00.632421.21.21Example 322.504344.00.511538.00.592215.71.16Example 420.610536.00.572529.00.710724.11.24

[0102] It can be seen from Table 4 above that the Carr Indexes of the nitroxoline total mixed particles of the present invention are all less than 25%, indicating that the particles have good fluidity. Moreover, the Hsusner Ratios of the nitroxoline total mixed particles of the present invention are less than 1.25, indicating that the compressibility of the particles is good or better.

[0103] In summary, the pharmaceutical composition of nitroxoline or a salt thereof with specific particle size provided in the present invention allows the resulting nitroxoline tablets to have a moderate dissolution rate (the dissolution rate within 60 min is more than 75%), uniform content, narrow variation range in hardness, and good fluidity and compressibility. Moreover, the nitroxoline tablets are not only conducive to the absorption of active pharmaceutical ingredients in the body, but also have a simple preparation process that is suitable for industrial production.
