Any technology realized based on the above description of the present application is covered within the scope of protection intended by the present application.

[0108] Unless otherwise specified, the raw materials and reagents used in the following examples are commercially available or can be prepared by known methods.

[0109] In the present application, the term "fluticasone furoate" generally refers to the generic term for a medicament comprising three active ingredients: fluticasone furoate (FF), vilanterol trifenatate (VI), and glycopyrronium bromide (GLY). For metering purposes, "glycopyrronium bromide" is "glycopyrronium" on an active ingredient basis, "umeclidinium bromide (UMEC)" is "umeclidinium" on an active ingredient basis, and "vilanterol trifenatate" is "vilanterol" on an active ingredient basis.

[0110] In the present application, the term "fine particledose (FPD)" or microfine particle dose generally refers to the total mass of active agent present with an aerodynamic particle size less than a specified limit emitted with the drive device. The limit is generally set to 5 μιη unless explicitly stated otherwise to be set to another limit.

[0111] In the present application, the term "fine particle fraction (FPF)" or microfine particle fraction is generally defined as the FPD divided by the emitted dose and expressed as a percentage.

[0112] In the present application, the term "diluent" includes any and all solvents, solubilizing agents, complexing agents, dispersion media, coatings, isotonic and absorption delaying agents, and the like, which are not biologically or otherwise undesirable. The use of such media and agents for pharmaceutically active substances is well known in the art. Except insofar as any conventional media or agent is incompatible with the active ingredient, its use in the therapeutic compositions is contemplated.

[0113] In the present application, the singular forms "a," "an," and "the" are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

[0114] In this application, the terms“comprising” (and any form of comprising, such as“comprise” and“comprises”),“having” (and any form of having, such as“have” and“has”),“including” (and any form of including, such as“include” and“includes”) or“containing” (and any form of containing, such as“contain” and“contains”) are inclusive or open-ended and do not exclude additional, unrecited elements or method steps. It is contemplated that any embodiment discussed in this specification can be implemented with respect to any method or composition of the disclosure, and vice versa. Furthermore, compositions of the disclosure can be used to achieve methods of this disclosure.

[0115] The ranges provided herein are understood to be shorthand for all of the values within the range. For example, a range of 1 to 50 is understood to include any number, combination, or sub-range between and including 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, or 50, as well as all intervening values of each of these listed numbers, such as, for example, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, and 1.9. With regard to sub-ranges, “nested sub-ranges” extending from either end of a range are specifically contemplated. For example, nested sub-ranges of the exemplary range of 1 to 50 can include 1 to 10, 1 to 20, 1 to 30, and 1 to 40 in one direction, or 50 to 40, 50 to 30, 50 to 20, and 50 to 10 in the other direction.

delivery dose uniformity

[0130] One can of fluticasone furoate / glycopyrronium bromide / vilanterol trifenatate three-way aerosol prepared according to the above process is taken, and before testing, the sample is pre-pressed 2 times and inverted and placed at room temperature for 24 hours. Shake the balanced sample for 5 seconds, discard several puffs, and use them to saturate the valve rod; connect the device according to the law, start the vacuum pump, connect the flowmeter, adjust the vacuum pump valve to control the flow rate to be 28.3 L / min (range 26.9 L / min-29.7 L / min), and stabilize for 15 seconds. Shake the inhaler (aluminum can inserted into the driver) for 5 seconds, insert it into the suction nozzle adapter, press 1 time, suck for 5 seconds, turn off the vacuum pump, and remove the inhalation device. Repeat the above process to collect the specified dose. Add 20 ml of diluent to wash the filter paper and the inside of the collection tube, and shake well to dissolve the sample. Measure a total of 10 delivery doses before (initial 3 doses), in the middle (n / 2 puffs for 4 doses, n is the total number of puffs indicated), and after (last 3 doses). Use the analysis method specified under each variety to determine the drug content in each solution. The test results are shown in Table 1.

[0131] Table 1 Delivery dose uniformity results of the preparation of Example 1

[0132] Note: The above data are based on active ingredients.

[0133] As shown in Table 1, the average delivery amount of vilanterol trifenatate is 9.61 μg, the average delivery amount of glycopyrronium bromide is 12.22 μg, and the average delivery amount of fluticasone furoate is 39.86 μg; and in the above 10 test results, all are within 75% to 125% of the average value. The average values are all within 80% to 120% of the delivery dose label. It is shown that the fluticasone furoate vilanterol trifenatate glycopyrronium bromide aerosol of the present application has good delivery dose uniformity, which meets the requirements of the pharmacopoeia.

Device 3 Inhalation Aerosol

[0135] Determination by connecting device. Place the collection cup in the tray, install the tray on the bottom support, and ensure that each collection cup corresponds to the corresponding position of the bottom support. Close the lid, and turn the handle under the plate. Insert the L-shaped connecting tube into the inlet end of the impactor, and install a suitable mouthpiece adapter at the other end of the L-shaped connecting tube. After inserting the driver, the mouthpiece end should be flush with the mouth of the L-shaped connecting tube, and the other end of the driver should be perpendicular upward. Connect the outlet of the impactor to the vacuum pump, turn on the vacuum pump, adjust the flow control valve to make the gas flow rate at the inlet of the L-shaped connecting tube be 30 L / min (±5%), and stabilize for 15 seconds. Remove the flow meter and keep the vacuum pump running continuously. Shake the inhalation device for 5 seconds and then press (spray) it once; remove the inhalation device, shake it for 5 seconds, reinsert the mouthpiece adapter, and press (spray) it for the second time; repeat this process until 10 pressings (sprayings) are completed. After the last pressing (spraying), remove the inhalation device, start the timer, and wait for 5 seconds. Turn off the vacuum pump. Remove the impactor, take off the L-shaped connecting tube and the mouthpiece adapter, clean them with the solvents specified in the respective variety item, and dilute them quantitatively to an appropriate volume. Loosen the handle, open the impactor, remove the tray together with the collection cups, and quantitatively collect the drugs in each collection cup and dilute them to an appropriate volume. Use the analysis method specified in the respective variety item to determine the amount of drugs in each solution. Calculate the fine particle dose FPD≤5 μm and the FPF% value to evaluate the fine particle dose of the fluticasone furoate vilanterol trifenatate glycopyrronium bromide aerosol, and the test results are shown in Table 2.

[0136] Table 2 Fine particle dose results of the preparation of Example 1

[0137] Note: The above data are based on active ingredients.

[0138] As shown in Table 2 and Figure 1, the FPD≤5μm values ​​of vilanterol triphenylacetic acid, glycopyrronium bromide, and fluticasone furoate are 7.00μg, 8.51μg, and 24.43μg, respectively, and the FPF% values ​​of all three reach over 60%, indicating that the fluticasone tri-aerosol of the present invention has a high dosage of fine particles. Furthermore, the in vitro deposition of the three active ingredients (APIs) is similar.

[0139] 3. Comparison of delivery dose uniformity and fine particle dosage between the formulation of this invention and flutemet.

[0140] As shown in Figure 2, the delivery rate / average delivery rate of the fluticadimidine tri-aerosol formulation of the present invention was between 85% and 125% in all 10 test results, and the delivery rate / average delivery rate of fluticadimidine was also between 85% and 125%. The delivery dose uniformity of the fluticadimidine tri-aerosol formulation was similar to that of fluticadimidine. As shown in Figure 3, the FPF% values ​​of vilanterol triphenylacetate, fluticasone furoate, and glycopyrronium bromide in the fluticadimidine tri-aerosol formulation were all higher than those of fluticadimidine, with the FPF% value of fluticasone furoate being approximately twice that of fluticadimidine. This indicates that the formulation and manufacturing process of the present invention are superior, resulting in higher fine particle doses for all three APIs.

[0142] 4.1 Pharmacodynamic evaluation of fluticasone propionate's effect on methacholine-induced bronchospasm in guinea pigs.

[0143] 4.1.1 Animal drug administration process

[0144] After acclimatization, guinea pigs were randomly assigned to groups. They were induced to undergo anesthesia using an isoflurane inhalation anesthesia machines. Once anesthetized, continuous oral and nasal inhalation anesthesia was administered. A small incision of approximately 1 cm was quickly made in the guinea pig's neck, and the airway was bluntly dissected. An intra-airway nebulizer needle was inserted to nebulize the medication (the model group received the appropriate solvent). The wound was sutured, and the guinea pigs were weaned off inhalation anesthesia and allowed to regain consciousness.

[0145] Table 3. Trial groupings for the bronchiectasis model (experimental groups include those receiving single or combined medications).

[0146] 4.1.2 Guinea Pig Lung Function Test

[0147] After 1 hour of administration, the guinea pigs were anesthetized by intraperitoneal injection of 1.5 g / kg of urethane in water, the hair on the neck was removed, the trachea was isolated for tracheal intubation, and the jugular vein was isolated and exposed. The guinea pigs were placed in a plethysmograph box, the tracheal intubation was connected to a respirator, and then the jugular vein intubation was performed. After the guinea pigs were stabilized for 2-3 min, 0, 0.025, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, and 0.4 mg / kg of acetylcholine in saline were injected through the jugular vein intubation at a gradient concentration, and the respiratory function was detected for 2-3 min at each concentration to observe the increase in pulmonary resistance and the decrease in lung compliance induced by acetylcholine.

[0148] As shown in Tables 4-7 and Figures 4-5, after the model group guinea pigs were intravenously injected with 0.025, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, and 0.4 mg / kg Mch, the airway resistance increased and the lung compliance decreased, which was dose-dependent. GLY / VI / FF in combination at 0.10 / 0.04 / 0.16 μg / kg and 0.20 / 0.08 / 0.32 μg / kg dose-dependently inhibited the increase in airway resistance and the decrease in lung compliance induced by 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, and 0.4 mg / kg Mch in guinea pigs (P<0.05-0.01). GLY / VI / FF in combination at 0.20 / 0.08 / 0.32 μg / kg had a stronger inhibitory effect on the decrease in lung function induced by Mch in guinea pigs than VI / FF at 0.08 / 0.32 μg / kg. GLY / VI / FF in combination at 0.10 / 0.04 / 0.16 μg / kg had a basically equivalent inhibitory effect on the decrease in lung function induced by Mch in guinea pigs as VI / FF at 0.08 / 0.32 μg / kg. GLY / VI / FF in combination at 0.20 / 0.08 / 0.32 μg / kg had a better effect on improving the increase in pulmonary resistance and the decrease in lung compliance induced by Mch than UMEC / VI / FF at 0.20 / 0.08 / 0.32 μg / kg.

[0149] 4.2 Pharmacodynamic evaluation of flutigavimab on smoking-induced acute lung injury in rats

[0150] 4.2.1 Establishment of a rat smoke exposure model

[0151] The rats were placed in a self-made exposure cabinet, connected to a smoking machine, and the cigarette smoke was sucked into the exposure cabinet, 10 cigarettes per round, 10 min per round, continuous smoking for 10 rounds, 100 min per day per rat, and continuous smoking for 14 days. The blank control group was exposed to air.

[0152] 4.2.2 Intratracheal administration method

[0153] The rats were placed in an inhalation anesthesia machine for isoflurane induction anesthesia. After the rats were anesthetized, the rats were quickly taken out and placed on the airway administration rack. Under laryngoscope observation, the airway nebulization needle was inserted into the airway through the oral cavity to nebulize the corresponding drug. Then, the rats were taken off the anesthesia machine and waited for them to wake up. The model group and the control group were given the corresponding solvent.

[0162] ##P<0.01 vs control group, *P<0.05, **P<0.01 vs model group

[0163] The results shown in Tables 8-10 and Figures 6-9 show that the improvement of lung inflammation in smoke-exposed rats by single or combined use of drugs or triple combination is only related to whether fluticasone furoate (FF) is contained in the prescription, and there is no significant difference in anti-inflammatory effect between single use of fluticasone furoate (FF) and the prescription (P>0.05), and the anti-inflammatory effect of fluticasone furoate (FF) + glycopyrronium bromide (GLY) + vilanterol trifenatate (VI) is equivalent to that of the commercially available full-again prescription fluticasone furoate (FF) + umeclidinium bromide (UMEC) + vilanterol trifenatate (VI) of the same dose.

[0175] Note: The above data are based on the active ingredients.

[0176] Table 13. Results of the formulation influencing factor test of Example 2

[0177] As shown in Table 11, all the above determination results are within 75% to 125% of the average value. The average values are within 80% to 120% of the delivery dose label, which meets the requirements of the pharmacopoeia. As shown in Table 12, the FPF value of fluticasone furoate is 56.82%, the FPF value of vilanterol trifenatate is 62.63%, and the FPF value of glycopyrronium bromide is 35.81%, which is higher than the FPD value of glycopyrronium bromide in Comparative Example 5, indicating that the process of co-spray-drying glycopyrronium bromide and lactose can improve the FPD value of glycopyrronium bromide. As shown in Table 13, the related substances of the formulation of Example 2 were detected after being placed at 60°C and 10% RH for 0, 5, 10 and 30 days, respectively. The results show that there is no degradation impurity of glycopyrronium bromide and fluticasone furoate, and the degradation impurity of vilanterol trifenatate is 2.11% after 60°C for 30 days, and there is no obvious degradation. The prescription and raw materials have good compatibility.

[0184] The method was the same as in Example 1.

[0186] Note: The above data are based on active ingredients.

[0187] As shown in Table 14, the average delivery amount of vilanterol was 9.33 μg, the average delivery amount of glycopyrronium was 18.09 μg, and the average delivery amount of fluticasone furoate was 39.03 μg; and in the above 10 determination results, the delivery amounts were all within 75% to 125% of the average delivery amount. The average delivery amounts were all within 80% to 120% of the delivery dose label. This shows that the fluticasone trihedral aerosol of Example 3 has good delivery dose uniformity, and meets the requirements of the pharmacopoeia.

[0191] 3.1 Bronchodilatory pharmacodynamics test of fluticasone on acetylcholine and histamine-induced bronchospasm in guinea pigs

[0192] 3.1.1 Animal dosing method

[0193] After the guinea pigs were adaptively fed, they were randomly grouped. After the guinea pigs were anesthetized by inhaling isoflurane, the mouth was opened by a mouth prop, the tongue was gently pulled, a high-pressure atomizing needle was inserted through the epiglottis into the trachea, and the drug was sprayed into the airway of the animal. 50 μL was sprayed into the airway of each guinea pig.

[0194] 3.1.2 Lung function determination

[0195] At 30 min after airway administration, the guinea pigs were anesthetized with 1.5 g / kg of urethane (15% urethane, 10 mL / kg body weight) by intraperitoneal injection. The trachea and the external jugular vein were cannulated. The guinea pigs were placed in a plethysmograph box, and the chest was cannulated. The airway resistance (Raw) and dynamic lung compliance (Cdyn) were measured by recording the airway flow rate, transpulmonary pressure, and tidal volume through a pneumotachograph. The airway constriction was induced by injecting different concentrations of a mixture of acetylcholine and histamine through the external jugular vein. The concentrations of the mixture of acetylcholine (Mch) and histamine (His) were as follows: 0 / 0 μg / kg, 2 / 1.25 μg / kg, 4 / 2.5 μg / kg, 6 / 3.75 μg / kg, and 8 / 5 μg / kg.

[0196] The results shown in Tables 16-19 and Figs. 10-11 indicate that the intravenous injection of Mch / His (2 / 1.25, 4 / 2.5, 6 / 3.75, and 8 / 5 μg / kg) induced a dose-dependent airway constriction in guinea pigs, increased the airway resistance, and decreased the dynamic lung compliance. The low-dose flutergavi (143 / 71 / 36 ng / kg) and the high-dose flutergavi (571 / 286 / 143 ng / kg) significantly inhibited the airway constriction induced by Mch / His, decreased the airway resistance, and increased the dynamic lung compliance. The fluticasone furoate + vilanterol (143 / 36 ng / kg) and the glycopyrronium (71 ng / kg) also significantly inhibited the increase in the percentage of the airway resistance induced by Mch / His. At the same dose, the flutergavi three-drug combination showed a stronger inhibitory effect on the airway constriction in guinea pigs than the fluticasone furoate + vilanterol two-drug combination and the glycopyrronium single drug.

[0197] 3.2 Pharmacodynamic effects of flutergavi on asthmatic mice

[0198] 3.2.1 Establishment of an asthmatic mouse model

[0199] After the adaptation period, the mice were randomly divided into groups. The mice were subcutaneously and intraperitoneally injected with 4% aluminum hydroxide gel containing 2 mg / mL ovalbumin (OVA), and the blank control group was injected with 4% aluminum hydroxide gel without OVA. The injection sites of each mouse were as follows: 25 μL (s.c.) in each of the two hind paws; 25 μL (s.c.) in each of the two inguinal grooves; 50 μL (s.c.) in each of the two back parts; 100 μL (s.c.) in the neck; and 200 μL (i.p.) in the abdomen. The first sensitization was recorded as D1, and 200 μL of 10 mg / mL ovalbumin solution was intraperitoneally injected on D14 to enhance the sensitization. From D21 to D28, the mice were exposed to the ovalbumin solution for 30 min once a day for 8 consecutive days.

[0200] 3.2.2 Method of animal administration

[0201] D21~D28, each group of animals was anesthetized by inhaling isoflurane, the tongue was pulled out in supine position, the mouth was opened by mouth prop, the high-pressure atomizing needle was inserted into the mouse epiglottis and trachea. Each animal was given 20 μL of drug solution by atomization. The animals in the blank control group and the model group were given 0.9% DMSO physiological saline solution (consistent with the high-dose solvent of fluticasone propionate) by airway atomization. After administration, each day was given 10 mg / mL ovalbumin solution by atomization for 30 min for excitation.

The fluticasone propionate (100 / 50 / 25 ng / kg-400 / 200 / 100 ng / kg, fluticasone propionate / vilanterol / glycopyrronium) three-drug combination can effectively inhibit the airway hyperresponsiveness of OVA-induced asthmatic mice. Under the same dose conditions, the three-drug combination has a stronger inhibitory effect on airway hyperresponsiveness than the fluticasone propionate + vilanterol two-drug combination and the glycopyrronium single drug.

[0219] The fluticasone propionate three-drug combination can effectively inhibit the lung inflammatory cell infiltration and IL-4 content and up-regulate INF-γ in OVA-induced asthmatic mice. Under the same dose conditions, the three-drug combination has a basically consistent inhibitory effect on lung inflammation as the fluticasone propionate + vilanterol two-drug combination, while the glycopyrronium has no obvious effect on lung inflammation. It is speculated that the inhibition of lung inflammation in asthmatic mice is determined by the dose of fluticasone propionate, and adding glycopyrronium on the basis of fluticasone propionate + vilanterol has no effect on the inhibition of lung inflammation in asthmatic mice.

The results showed that there was basically no degradation impurity of fluticasone furoate and glycopyrronium bromide. The degradation impurity of vilanterol trifenatate was 5.00% when it was placed at 60°C for 30 days, indicating that vilanterol trifenatate had a certain degree of degradation; combined with the results of the preparation property test, this prescription cannot meet the requirements of the development of the preparation.

The 0-day sample was taken for related substance detection, and then placed in a constant temperature and humidity box at 60°C and 10% RH, and taken out at the 10th day for related substance detection. The results are shown in the table below.

[0312] Related substance detection results:

[0313] Table 44 Auxiliary Material Screening Related Substance Detection Results

[0314] From Table 44, different types of surfactants are added to the prescription, and the stability of the raw material is investigated by taking the related substances of each API as the evaluation index through the compatibility test of raw and auxiliary materials. From the test results, glycerol, poloxamer 188, distearoyl phosphatidylcholine, oleic acid, Tween 80, and 15-hydroxystearic acid polyethylene glycol ester are added to the prescription, respectively, and then placed at 60℃, 10% RH for 10 days. The detection of related substances shows that the above-mentioned auxiliary materials cause significant degradation of terbutaline trifenatate, indicating that the stability of the raw material decreases after the above-mentioned auxiliary materials are added to the prescription. However, after lactose is added to the prescription, each API does not show significant degradation, and it is preliminarily judged that lactose has good compatibility with the raw material. The compatibility of the raw and auxiliary materials of the prescription is further investigated, and the results are as follows:

[0315] Table 45: Detection results of lactose related substances

[0316] From Table 45, lactose is added to the prescription as an auxiliary material and placed at 60℃, 10% RH for 30 days. No impurity C is detected for glycopyrronium, the total impurities of fluticasone furoate are 0.21%, and the total impurities of vilanterol are 2.58%. After being placed at an accelerated condition (40℃, 75% RH) for 1 month, no impurity C is detected for glycopyrronium, the total impurities of fluticasone furoate are 0.09%, and the total impurities of vilanterol are 0.76%, all of which are within the acceptable range of the prescription screening. Therefore, lactose is selected as the auxiliary material in the embodiment.
