Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This application belongs to the field of biopharmaceuticals and specifically relates to compositions and methods for producing drugs with improved oral bioavailability. [Background technology]

[0002] Oral administration has long been the preferred method of administering therapeutic drugs due to its ease of use, safety, effectiveness, and the variety of formulations that can be developed. It is preferred by patients and enjoys good patient compliance. However, many high-demand drugs are still administered by other methods, such as injection, due to various factors. For example, many polypeptide drugs, such as insulin and GLP-1 agonists, are currently administered by injection, which has the disadvantage of being less adaptable to patients, making administration more difficult and causing long-term discomfort.

[0003] Improving the oral administration of drugs that are difficult to administer orally is one of the important directions in drug research. Currently, the mainstream oral administration regimen for drugs that are difficult to administer orally (e.g., protein and polypeptide drugs) involves producing the active drug and oral formulation using oral delivery agents such as sodium octanoate (C8Na), sodium caprate (C10Na), sodium laurate (C12Na), and sodium chenodeoxycholate. A relatively successful example of oral drug development is semaglutide tablets (Rybelsus®), a GLP-1R agonist drug developed by Novo Nordisk. This method increases the oral absorption utilization rate of polypeptides by adding the delivery agent N-(8-(2-hydroxybenzoyl)amino) sodium octanoate (SNAC) to GLP-1R agonist tablets, and this drug has already been approved and marketed in many regions, including the United States and Europe. However, the biggest challenge in oral protein or polypeptide drug technology today remains the efficiency of drug delivery, and relatively low delivery efficiency leads to relatively high raw material costs. This is primarily because the presence of the gastrointestinal barrier makes it difficult for oral protein and polypeptide drugs to be delivered to the body's circulatory system.

[0004] Therefore, improving the oral bioavailability of drugs that are difficult to administer orally (e.g., protein and polypeptide drugs), saving on drug production costs, and benefiting more patients are urgent issues that need to be addressed in this field. [Overview of the Initiative]

[0092] The following definitions of some terms used herein are provided. Unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as they are generally understood by those skilled in the art.

[0093] In this application, "protein or polypeptide-based drug" refers to a protein or polypeptide-based compound contained in an oral drug that either directly acts as a drug-active component in the body or indirectly assists the drug-active component in exerting disease-preventive and / or therapeutic functions.

[0094] In some embodiments of the present application, the protein or polypeptide drug may be a natural protein or polypeptide compound (e.g., hormones, growth factors, cytokines, analgesic peptides, enzymes, blood coagulation factors, peptide neurotransmitters, and antibodies) or a synthetically synthesized polypeptide or protein, or an analog, derivative, conjugate or fusion protein of the polypeptide or protein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

[0096] In some embodiments of the present application, the protein or polypeptide drug simultaneously includes the activity of one or more receptor agonists or antagonists.

[0097] In some embodiments of the present application, the protein or polypeptide drug is preferably a GLP-1 receptor agonist, the GLP-1 receptor agonist comprising compounds having GLP-1 receptor agonist activity, particularly polypeptides / proteins, and analogs, derivatives, conjugates or fusion proteins of the polypeptide / protein or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof.

[0098] In some embodiments of the present application, the GLP-1 receptor agonist comprises exendins, exendin analogs, exendin agonists, GLP-1(7-37), GLP-1(7-37) analogs or derivatives thereof, conjugates or fusion proteins or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. The GLP-1 receptor agonist compound may be optionally amidated. The terms GLP-1 receptor agonist and GLP-1 receptor agonist compound have the same meaning.

[0099] Among these, exendins include naturally occurring exendins (or synthetic versions of naturally occurring ones) found in the saliva secretion of Gila monsters. Exendins of particular interest include exendin-3 and exendin-4. The exendins, exendin analogs, and exendin agonists used in this application may be optionally amidated and may exist in the form of an acidic molecule, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, or any other physiologically active form.

[0100] GLP-1(7-37) analogs refer to peptides that can produce biological activity similar to that of GLP-1(7-37) when evaluated by known assay methods in the art (e.g., receptor-binding assays or endogenous blood glucose assays, e.g., those described in Hargrove et al., Regulatory Peptides, 141:113-119 (2007) (the disclosure thereof is incorporated herein by reference)). In one embodiment, the term GLP-1(7-37) analog refers to a peptide having an amino acid sequence having 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8 amino acid substitutions, insertions, deletions, or combinations thereof of two or more of these compared to the amino acid sequence of GLP-1(7-37).

[0102] In this application, “analog” means a substance having a structure and / or function similar to the protein or polypeptide of this application.

[0103] In this application, “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” refers to any adduct between two or more chemical substances capable of proton transfer. Therefore, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt includes adducts where complete proton transfer occurs, adducts where partial proton transfer occurs (e.g., where an equilibrium mixture of charged and uncharged substances is formed), and / or adducts where no proton transfer occurs but the chemical substances are bonded, for example, by hydrogen bonding. It should be understood that a pharmaceutically acceptable salt also includes adducts where tight ion pairs exist. Furthermore, it should be understood that a pharmaceutically acceptable salt also includes a continuum of adducts between the following adducts: adducts where complete proton transfer occurs to form discrete ions, and / or adducts where two substances are bonded but no or only partial proton transfer occurs. See, for example, Childs et al., Mol. Pharmaceutics, 2007, 4(3), pp 323-338. A given pharmaceutically acceptable salt may contain one or more adducts in the continuum.

[0104] Pharmacopoecitable salts include salts having an acidic or basic group. Pharmacopoecitable acid addition salts include, but are not limited to, hydrochlorides, hydrobroms, hydroiodides, nitrates, methanesulfons, sulfates, bisulfates, phosphates, acidic phosphates, isonicotinates, acetates, lactates, salicylates, citrates, tartrates, pantothenates, hydrogen tartrates, ascorbic acid, succinates, maleates, gentisinates, fumarates, glucons, glucurons, sucroses, formates, benzoates, glutamates, methanesulfons, ethanesulfons, benzenesulfons, p-toluenesulfons, and pamoates (i.e., 1,1'-methylene-bis-(2-hydroxy-3-naphthoates)). Suitable basic salts include, but are not limited to, aluminum, calcium, lithium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, zinc, and diethanolamine salts.

[0105] In this application, the mass ratio of the delivery agent and the delivery enhancer may be any mass ratio that can improve the delivery effect, for example, 1:0.3 to 1:3, and includes mass ratios of about 1:0.3, about 1:0.4, about 1:0.5, about 1:0.6, about 1:0.7, about 1:0.8, about 1:0.9, about 1:1, about 1:1.1, about 1:1.2, about 1:1.3, about 1:1.4, about 1:1.5, about 1:1.6, about 1:1.7, about 1:1.8, about 1:1.9, about 1:2, about 1:2.1, about 1:2.2, about 1:2.3, about 1:2.4, about 1:2.5, about 1:2.6, about 1:2.7, about 1:2.8, about 1:2.9, about 1:3 and any arbitrary mass ratio interval.

[0107] In this application, "bioavailability" refers to the extent and rate to which a substance, such as a drug, peptide, or hormone, is available at its physiologically active site. In the field of pharmacology, the term bioavailability is understood as a score of the dose of an unchanged drug, compound, or drug that reaches systemic circulation and is one of the primary pharmacokinetic properties of a drug. By definition, when a drug is administered intravenously, its bioavailability is 100%. However, when a drug is administered via other routes (e.g., orally or intramuscularly), its bioavailability is usually reduced due to factors such as incomplete absorption and first-pass metabolism. For example, these factors may differ from patient to patient due to differences in individual metabolism.

[0108] Standard tests for measuring the bioavailability of a drug are known to those skilled in the art and, in particular, include measuring the area under the relative curve (AUC) of the concentrations of the drug administered orally and intravenously (iv) in the same class.

[0109] In this application, the salt of N-(8-(2-hydroxybenzoyl)amino)octanoic acid may be crystalline and / or amorphous, and includes, but is not limited to, sodium salts, potassium salts and / or ammonium salts.

[0110] In this application, “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” refers to a non-toxic material that does not interfere with the effect of the pharmacoactive ingredient or pharmaceutical composition of this application, or with the biological activity of the pharmacoactive ingredient or pharmaceutical composition of this application. Methods for preparing pharmacoactive ingredients using pharmaceutically acceptable carriers are known in the art; see, for example, Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy (e.g., 21st edition (2005) and any subsequent editions). Non-limiting examples of pharmaceutically acceptable carriers include, but are not limited to, salts (e.g., acidic salts / anionic salts, basic salts / cationic salts), excipients, buffers, diluents, solubilizers, tonicity modifiers, surfactants, preservatives, isotonic agents, flavorings, colorants, stabilizers, binders, disintegrants, fillers, lubricants, and chelating agents.

[0145] [ka]

[0146] The PNAC used in the examples and comparative examples is an anhydrous crystalline sample of potassium N-(8-(2-hydroxybenzoyl)amino)octanoate, and the PNAC has the structure shown in formula (II) and is prepared with reference to CN 112661663B, i.e., crystalline form I.

[0147] [ka]

[0148] Unless otherwise specified, the test animals, test equipment, and test reagents used in the examples and comparative examples are all commonly available commercially.

[0149] The analytical method for determining the content of GLP-1 receptor agonists used in the examples and comparative examples is as follows.

[0150] For the analysis of the active substance GLP-1 receptor agonist content, the HPLC method (Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2020 Edition, General Rules for Four Sections 0512) was adopted, and the specific test procedure was as follows: Five composition tablets were taken, weighed to determine the total weight, finely polished, and uniformly mixed. An appropriate amount was weighed and dissolved in the diluent (0.01% Tween 20 + 0.05M Na2HPO4). After complete dissolution, the solution was diluted to the desired volume, shaken uniformly, and allowed to stand for 30 minutes to allow for sufficient extraction. After uniform shaking, the sample was centrifuged (4°C, 12000 rpm for 10 minutes), the supernatant was taken and placed in an appropriate volume of HPLC liquid phase vial, the sample was injected and analyzed, and detection was performed using Waters high-performance liquid chromatography. The reverse-phase chromatography column used was a YMC UltraHT Pro C18 column. In addition, instruments such as an electronic balance (1 / 100,000), an ultrasonic device, a volumetric flask, reagent bottles, and sealing film were also used. The reagents used include distilled water, acetonitrile (HPLC grade), isopropanol (HPLC grade), trifluoroacetic acid (HPLC grade), anhydrous disodium hydrogen phosphate, and Tween 20. Mobile phase A is water:acetonitrile:TFA in a volume ratio of 830:170:2. Mobile phase B is acetonitrile:isopropanol:TFA in a volume ratio of 850:150:2. The content of each component in the composition tablet is calculated relative to the peak area of ​​the GLP-1 receptor agonist control.

[0151] Example 1: Pharmacokinetic study in Beagle dogs 1. Manufacturing of composition tablets Tablets with the same amount of GLP-1 receptor agonist were manufactured, but the content of adjuvants, such as the delivery agent PNAC, delivery enhancers, and other adjuvants, differed. Tables 1 and 2 provide the content of each component in the different composition tablets manufactured.

[0152] The specific manufacturing steps for the tablets were as follows: (1) Material pretreatment: The GLP-1 receptor agonist was sieved through a 100-mesh sieve, and if necessary, it could be crushed and then sieved again. The delivery agent PNAC was sieved through a 50-mesh sieve, and any material that did not pass through the sieve was polished and then sieved again. The treatment of the delivery enhancer was the same as for PNAC. Magnesium stearate was used directly as a lubricant. (2) Initial mixing: A fixed amount of GLP-1 receptor agonist, delivery agent, delivery enhancer, and an appropriate amount of magnesium stearate were mixed uniformly by hand to obtain mixed powder I. (3) Dry granulation: The above mixed powder I was rolled into a strip sheet of appropriate hardness and then crushed into particles. (4) Remixing: The above particles were collected, the remaining magnesium stearate was added again, and the mixture was mixed uniformly by hand. (5) Tableting: The hardness of the tablets was controlled within the range of 30-90N.

[0153] [Table 1]

[0154] [Table 2]

[0155] 2. Test Methods and Results 2.1 Collapse Test In accordance with the disintegration time test method described in General Rule 0921 of the Four Sections of the "Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2020 Edition," a tablet disintegration test was conducted in this embodiment, and the in vitro disintegration time of tablets of different compositions was recorded. The specific method was as follows: A basket was suspended from a bracket by a stainless steel shaft and immersed in a 1000 mL beaker. The position of the basket was adjusted so that when it was lowered to its lowest point, the sieve at the bottom was approximately 25 mm away from the bottom of the cup. The beaker was filled with purified water at a temperature of 37 ± 1 °C. The water level was adjusted so that when the basket was raised to its highest point, the sieve was 15 mm below the water surface, and the top of the basket was not immersed in the solution.

[0156] In this example, the disintegration time was measured according to the method described above using the ZB-1D intelligent disintegration device from Tianjin Tianhe Analytical Instruments Co., Ltd. The results were taken as the median value for 3 to 6 composition tablets.

[0157] As shown in Table 3, the disintegration times of the tablets of different compositions varied with the type or proportion of the delivery enhancer, and each increased to a different degree compared to reference composition A.

[0158] [Table 3]

[0159] 2.2 Pharmacokinetic studies in Beagle dogs The beagle dogs used were male, approximately 0.5 to 6 years old, and weighed approximately 9 to 12 kg. Pharmacokinetic studies were repeatedly conducted on some of these beagle dogs. After the previous dose, an appropriate washout period was given to each beagle dog. During this period, their condition, such as mental state, feeding status / amount, and weight, was evaluated. If they passed the evaluation, they could proceed to the next dose experiment group.

[0160] The administration requirements were as follows: The patient was fasted overnight before each administration (without withholding water), administered under these conditions, and given a tablet with 10 mL of water (determined amount) at the time of administration, ensuring that the tablet was not chewed and remained intact, and given food 4 hours after administration. Blood samples were taken before administration (0h) and at 0.5h, 1.5h, 3h, 8h, and 24h after administration, and continued for up to 24 hours after administration to adequately cover the complete plasma concentration-time absorption spectrum of the GLP-1 receptor agonist.

[0161] Blood samples were collected at each blood collection point, and the general preparation process was as follows: Approximately 1.5 mL of whole blood was anticoagulated, then centrifuged at 5000 × g for 10 minutes under conditions of 4°C, and the resulting plasma was extracted and separated. The plasma was collected in EDTA anticoagulant EP tubes, at a volume of 600 μL or more per tube. It was stored in a refrigerator at -80°C until detection analysis.

[0162] Active components in blood samples were detected using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS), with a Thermo Q EXACTIVE mass spectrometer and a Thermo Ultimate 3000 high-performance liquid chromatograph.

[0163] LC-MS was used to analyze the plasma concentration of GLP-1 receptor agonists, obtain plasma concentration-time curves, and determine the GLP-1 receptor agonist exposure status within 0-3 hours, and AUC. (0~3時間) and C max The exposure was obtained by obtaining the result and normalizing it by calculating the ratio (dose mg / body weight kg) * 100 to obtain the dose-corrected exposure.

[0164] As shown in Table 4 and Figure 1, with the same amount of delivery agent (PNAC) used, the composition tablets containing the delivery enhancer showed increased exposure in beagle dogs after oral administration. When the delivery enhancer was not included, the amount of delivery agent (PNAC) used was reduced compared to composition B, and post-oral exposure was significantly reduced (composition A). Increasing the amount of delivery enhancer significantly improved post-oral exposure and reduced the overall amount of adjuvant used. As is clear from the results, the delivery enhancer can effectively reduce the amount of delivery agent used and improve the oral bioavailability of the polypeptide.

[0165] [Table 4]

[0166] Example 2: Steady-state pharmacokinetic studies in Beagle dogs 1. Manufacturing of composition tablets Table 5 provides the content of each component in different composition tablets (compositions M1 to M9) used in this embodiment. The tablet manufacturing process involved direct mixing followed by tableting, and the specific steps were as follows: (1) Material pretreatment: The GLP-1R agonist was sieved through a 100-mesh sieve and, if necessary, crushed and then sieved again. The delivery agent PNAC was sieved through a 50-mesh sieve, and any material that did not pass through the sieve was polished and then sieved again. All other auxiliary agents were sieved through a 40-mesh sieve. (2) Mixing: A fixed amount of GLP-1R agonist, delivery agent, delivery enhancer and other auxiliary agents were manually mixed uniformly to obtain mixed powder I. (3) Tableting: Tablets were compressed as required, and the hardness of the tablets was controlled within the range of 30 to 90 N.

[0167] [Table 5]

[0168] 2. Test Methods and Results We conducted steady-state (multiple-dose) pharmacokinetic studies in beagle dogs to determine the exposure status of GLP-1R agonists in the body after multiple consecutive oral administrations of tablets with different proportions of the composition.

[0169] The test animals and methods were the same as in Section 2.2 of Example 1, the only difference being that one tablet was administered once daily for seven consecutive days, and blood samples were collected on Day 7 (0h) before administration, and at 0.5h, 1.5h, 3h, 8h, and 24h after administration.

[0170] Using LC-MS, plasma concentrations of GLP-1R agonists were analyzed to obtain a blood drug concentration-time curve, which represents the exposure to GLP-1R agonists in animals within 0-24 hours at steady state (Day 7), i.e., AUC. (0~24時間) and C max The exposure was obtained by obtaining the result and normalizing it by calculating the ratio of (dose mg / body weight kg)*100. The results of the study are shown in Table 6.

[0171] [Table 6]

[0172] The results showed that, compared to composition B (control group) which did not contain a delivery enhancer, compositions M1 to M9, each mixed with PNAC in different amounts and proportions of delivery enhancers, were administered orally multiple times, and their oral absorption (AUC) at steady state was significantly better. 0~24h ) was shown to be improved to varying degrees compared to composition B (control group). On the other hand, compared to composition B (control group), in which the maximum amount of PNAC used was 300 mg, the delivery enhancer was increased, and even in group M4, which contained only 50 mg of PNAC, its oral absorption (AUC) was improved. 0~24h ) still showed a twofold improvement compared to composition B (control group).

[0173] Example 3: Pharmacokinetic studies in cynomolgus monkeys 1. Manufacturing of composition tablets Table 7 shows the content of each component in the different composition tablets (compositions N1 to N3) used in this example. The tablet manufacturing process was the same as in Section 1 of Example 1, the difference being that mannitol and cross-linked carboxymethylcellulose sodium were sieved through a 40-mesh sieve in the "pretreatment" stage, and then mixed with the particles obtained by dry granulation and the remaining magnesium stearate in the "remixing" stage.

[0174] [Table 7]

[0175] 2. Test Methods and Results Pharmacokinetic studies of different doses of composition tablets were conducted using cynomolgus monkeys, thereby determining the exposure status of different doses of GLP-1R agonists in the body after multiple consecutive oral administrations of the different composition tablets.

[0176] A total of 12 animals were used in the study, divided into 4 groups of 3 animals each. All were male and weighed approximately 3-6 kg. Oral administration consisted of composition N1 (2 mg), composition N2 and composition B (7 mg), and composition N3 (15 mg). All were administered multiple times, once a day, one tablet each time, for 7 consecutive days. Plasma samples were collected from each group before administration (0h) and at 2h, 4h, 8h, and 24h after administration on Day 7.

[0177] Pharmacokinetic studies were conducted by processing blood samples according to the test method of Example 2 and administering them multiple times to cynomolgus monkeys. Plasma concentrations of the GLP-1R agonist were analyzed to obtain plasma concentration-time curves, which showed the exposure status of the GLP-1R agonist in the animal body within 0 to 24 hours at steady state (Day 7), i.e., AUC. (0~24時間) and C max The dose-corrected exposure was obtained by obtaining the result and normalizing it by calculating the ratio of (dose mg / body weight kg)*100, and the results are shown in Table 8 and Figure 2.

[0178] [Table 8]

[0179] The results showed that after oral administration of compositions N1, N2, and N3 to cynomolgus monkeys for 7 consecutive days, the system exposure level (C) of the GLP-1R agonist in the cynomolgus monkeys was measured. max and AUC (0~24h) ) was shown to increase with increasing dose, indicating a dose-dependent relationship. Compositions N1-N3 dose groups showed similar corrected C max and corrected AUC 0~24 The values ​​were observed and were clearly higher than those of composition B. Compared to the 7 mg / tablet dose group, composition B without the delivery enhancer had a clearly lower oral absorption than composition N2 with the delivery enhancer, and composition N2 had a clearly higher corrected AUC. 0~24h This indicates that compositions containing delivery enhancers have superior oral absorption.

[0180] Example 4: Comparative study of different delivery agents 1. Manufacturing of composition tablets To further investigate the oral efficacy-enhancing effect of delivery enhancers on oral delivery agents, the oral effects of different oral delivery agents with sodium octanoate (C8Na), sodium caprate (C10Na), sodium laurate (C12Na), sodium chenodeoxycholate, and delivery enhancer compositions (compositions J1-J4) were examined. The compositional components of the compositions are shown in Table 9. The method for manufacturing the tablets was the same as in Example 2, i.e., the ingredients were directly mixed and then compressed into tablets.

[0181] [Table 9]

[0182] 2. Test Methods and Results Pharmacokinetic studies were conducted in beagle dogs according to the test method of Example 2.

[0183] [Table 10]

[0184] Oral absorption (AUC) 0~24h The results are shown in Table 10. Compared to the control group of composition B, the exposure levels of compositions J2 to J4 were reduced to varying degrees, but the reduction in the content of the oral delivery agent reached up to two-thirds. Surprisingly, when the content of the delivery agent was reduced compared to composition B, composition J1 showed an improvement in oral exposure, similar to composition M1. This indicates that calcium carbonate, as a delivery enhancer, also has a good potency-enhancing effect on other delivery agents (e.g., sodium octanoate, sodium caprate, sodium laurate, sodium chenodeoxycholate, etc.).

[0185] Comparative study of different carrier reagents 1. Manufacturing of composition tablets The oral effects of compositional tablets (compositions F1-F7) containing the delivery agent PNAC along with several other reagents having potential delivery-enhancing effects were investigated. The compositional components of the compositions are shown in Table 11. The method for manufacturing the tablets was the same as in Example 1.

[0186] [Table 11]

[0187] 2. Test Methods and Results A pharmacokinetic study was conducted in beagle dogs according to the test method of Example 1, and the results are shown in Table 12.

[0188] [Table 12]

[0189] The results showed that, when no delivery enhancer was included, the amount of delivery agent (PNAC) used in composition A was reduced compared to composition B, and oral exposure was significantly reduced. When the same amount of delivery agent (PNAC) was used, several candidate enhancers from this comparative example were selected to form the delivery agent and composition tablets, and exposure in beagle dogs after oral administration was reduced. As is clear from the results, although there are similarities with the delivery enhancer of the present application in several structural features, after oral administration of composition tablets containing several candidate enhancers from this comparative example, the amount of drug exposure was not improved, but rather reduced. This indicates that not all similar carrier reagents commonly found in the pharmaceutical field can reduce the amount of delivery agent used and improve the bioavailability of polypeptides.

Those skilled in the art will be able to make various improvements and modifications to the present invention without departing from its principles, and these improvements and modifications will also fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
