Abstract
Description
Method for manufacturing a filling material for cerebral aneurysm embolization and the use thereof
[0001] The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a photocrosslinked-based filler material for cerebral aneurysm embolization and the use thereof.
[0002] In general, a cerebral aneurysm is a representative cerebrovascular disease in which a blood vessel swells abnormally due to a structural defect in the inner wall of the blood vessel. Cerebral aneurysms are generally asymptomatic before rupture, but if they are large, they can compress the brain parenchyma or cranial nerves, causing neurological symptoms. If a cerebral aneurysm ruptures, it causes subarachnoid hemorrhage, which increases intracranial pressure. This leads to a decline in consciousness or coma, or in severe cases, death, and even if the patient recovers, it leaves serious aftereffects.
[0003] To treat such cerebral aneurysms, surgical methods such as neck ligation and minimally invasive endovascular procedures such as coil embolization are applied. Among these, cerebral aneurysm coil embolization is a method in which a microcatheter is inserted into the cerebral aneurysm and coils, which are embolizing materials (platinum), are thoroughly filled inside the aneurysm to prevent blood flow from entering the aneurysm. Generally, coil embolization, a minimally invasive endovascular procedure, tends to be preferred over neck ligation, which requires craniotomy.
[0004] However, in the case of conventional cerebral aneurysm coil embolization, the filling rate of the coils filling the aneurysm generally does not exceed 30-40%. Consequently, the recurrence rate of the embolized aneurysm reaches 20-30%, and retreatment is required in 50% of these cases. Furthermore, coil embolization requires a long training period to become proficient, which leads to significant variations in outcomes among operators. Additionally, the materials used in coil embolization (coils, support balloons, stents, etc.) are expensive imported materials, which is a reality that places a significant burden on both patients and society. Moreover, taking antiplatelet agents for an extended period after the procedure is also a considerable burden for patients. Therefore, there is a need to develop a new concept of embolization material to overcome the shortcomings of conventional coil embolization, and photocrosslinked semi-solid microfiber embolization materials that can replace metal coils can serve as an alternative.
[0005] Accordingly, in order to solve the limitations of existing embolization materials, the inventors developed a high-strength embolization material for cerebral aneurysm embolization comprising a PEGDA-based photocrosslinkable polymer compound and a liquid contrast agent as an embolization filling material that can be used for the treatment of cerebrovascular diseases (e.g., cerebral aneurysms), and completed the present invention by identifying that it can be stably maintained even in a high arterial pressure environment.
[0006] Accordingly, one objective of the present invention is to provide a method for manufacturing a filling material for cerebral aneurysm embolization.
[0007] In addition, another objective of the present invention is to provide an embolization filler material that can be used in embolization for treating cerebrovascular disease.
[0008] In addition, another objective of the present invention is to provide a composition for cerebral aneurysm embolization.
[0009] In addition, another objective of the present invention is to provide a pharmaceutical composition for the prevention or treatment of cerebrovascular disease comprising a filling material for cerebral aneurysm embolization.
[0010] In addition, another objective of the present invention is to provide a method for treating cerebrovascular disease.

[0015]
[0016] The present invention will be described in detail below.
[0017]
[0018] According to one aspect of the present invention, the present invention provides a method for manufacturing a filling material for cerebral aneurysm embolization and a filling material for cerebral aneurysm embolization manufactured according to the following steps:
[0019] (a) a step of preparing an aqueous solution of PEGDA ((poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate) as a photosensitive polymer material;
[0020] (b) a step of preparing a first mixture by mixing one first contrast agent selected from the group consisting of iopromide, iopamidol, ioversol, iomeprol, iohexol, iobitridol, and iodixanol into the PEGDA aqueous solution of step (a);
[0021] (c) a step of preparing a second mixture by mixing one second contrast agent selected from the group consisting of iopromide, iopamidol, ioversol, iomeprol, iohexol, iobitridol, and iodixanol into the first mixture of step (b) above;
[0022] (d) a step of preparing an embolization material precursor by mixing a photoinitiator into the second mixture of step (c) above; and
[0023] (e) A step of irradiating the embolization material precursor of step (d) with blue light.
[0024] The photocrosslinked-based embolization material of the present invention, suitable for use in cerebral aneurysm embolization, is an embolization material capable of providing stable mechanical properties based on a polymer, and can induce stable embolization by utilizing photoresponsive crosslinking suitable for delivering and crosslinking the embolization material to a cerebral artery model. In particular, it exhibits advantageous benefits in that it can be maintained stably even in an environment where strong pressure, such as actual arterial pressure, is continuously applied, and it also exhibits an contrast effect, thereby contributing to its utilization in cerebral aneurysm embolization.
[0025] In the present invention, the PEGDA is a photocrosslinkable polymer compound, and any PEGDA known in the art can be used as long as the purpose of the present invention is achieved, and preferably, it may be a PEGDA having a molecular weight of 500 to 1000 g / mol, for example, a PEGDA having a molecular weight of 700 g / mol, but is not limited thereto.
[0026] The PEGDA aqueous solution of step (a) above can be prepared with any solvent known in the art and any volume ratio as long as the purpose of the present invention is achieved, but preferably, it is a mixture of PEGDA and distilled water in a volume ratio of 9:1.
[0027] The first mixture of step (b) above can be prepared by mixing in any wt% as long as the purpose of the present invention is achieved, but preferably, the first contrast agent is mixed in 10 to 30 wt% relative to the PEGDA aqueous solution of step (a), and most preferably in 15 wt%.
[0028] The second mixture of step (c) above can be prepared by mixing in any % (v / v) as long as the purpose of the present invention is achieved, but preferably, the second contrast agent is mixed in 10 to 30% (v / v) relative to the first mixture of step (b), and most preferably, in 15% (v / v).
[0029] The photoinitiator of step (d) above may be prepared by mixing in any weight% as long as the purpose of the present invention is achieved, but preferably, it is mixed in an amount of 0.1 to 10 wt% relative to the second mixture of step (c), and preferably 0.4 wt%.

[0032] The filling material for cerebral aneurysm embolization of the present invention, produced according to the method of the present invention, forms a hydrogel by blue light crosslinking, and the hydrogel has an elastic modulus of 1000 to 1500 kPa and has superior mechanical properties and long-term structural stability compared to conventional alginate-based polymer materials.
[0033] The above embolization refers to a procedure intended to intentionally block blood flow by blocking blood vessels for the prevention or treatment of vascular disease, or to block blood vessels at risk of rupture.
[0034] The aforementioned embolization filling material refers to a substance that can alter blood flow by filling blood vessels at risk of rupture during embolization. Conventional embolization has the disadvantage of a very high recurrence rate of over 20% after the procedure due to incomplete occlusion.
[0035] On the other hand, the filling material for cerebral aneurysm embolization according to the present invention has technical features that distinguish it from conventional technology, in that, unlike conventional technology, it not only completely blocks blood vessels at risk of rupture but also maintains its shape for a long period, thereby significantly reducing the possibility of recurrence.
[0036] Furthermore, the filling material for cerebral aneurysm embolization according to the present invention can be crosslinked using a safe blue light crosslinking mechanism without the use of ultraviolet rays harmful to the human body. Therefore, it can resolve the cytotoxicity problems that occur during conventional photocrosslinking using ultraviolet rays.
[0037]

[0047] Additionally, the composition of the present invention may further comprise a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, excipient, or diluent, wherein "pharmaceutically acceptable" means exhibiting a property that is not toxic to cells or humans exposed to said composition.
[0048] The method of administration of the pharmaceutical composition for the prevention or treatment of cerebrovascular disease according to the present invention is not particularly limited and may be in various oral or parenteral formulations, and may follow methods commonly used in the art. As a non-limiting example of the above method of administration, the composition may be administered directly to the affected area by a parenteral method. Furthermore, the composition for the prevention, improvement, or treatment of cerebrovascular disease according to the present invention may be prepared in various formulations depending on the intended method of administration.
[0049] When formulating, the preparation is typically made using diluents or excipients such as commonly used fillers, volume expanders, binders, wetting agents, disintegrants, and surfactants. Solid dosage forms for oral administration include capsules, powders, granules, tablets, and pills, and these solid dosage forms are prepared by mixing at least one excipient, such as starch, calcium carbonate, sucrose or lactose, or gelatin, with one or more compounds. In addition to simple excipients, lubricants such as magnesium stearate and talc are also used. Liquid dosage forms for oral administration include suspensions, emulsions, syrups, and aerosols, and may contain various excipients, such as wetting agents, sweeteners, flavoring agents, and preservatives, in addition to commonly used simple diluents like water and liquid paraffin.

The composition of the present invention may be administered as an individual therapeutic agent or in combination with other therapeutic agents, may be administered sequentially or simultaneously with conventional therapeutic agents, and may be administered as a single or multiple doses. It is important to administer an amount that obtains maximum effect with a minimum amount without side effects by taking all of the above-mentioned factors into account, and this can be easily determined by a person skilled in the art.
[0051] The dosage of the composition of the present invention varies depending on the patient's body weight, age, gender, health status, diet, time of administration, method of administration, excretion rate, and severity of the disease. The composition of the present invention may be used alone or in combination with methods using surgery, radiation therapy, hormone therapy, chemotherapy, and biological response modulators.

[0096]
[0097] In summary, the present invention is a technology for developing a photocrosslinkable polymer-based embolization material suitable for cerebral aneurysm embolization, and aims to stably deliver an embolus to the aneurysm using PEGDA (polyethylene glycol diacrylate) containing a contrast agent. Conventional photocrosslinkable alginate-based polymer embolization materials had limitations in maintaining long-term stability under actual arterial pressure environments due to low mechanical strength. In particular, biopolymer alginate had difficulty maintaining its shape at arterial pressures of 100 mmHg diastolic and 120 mmHg systolic.
[0098] To solve these problems, the present invention utilizes PEGDA, a photosensitive material. 700By introducing an embolization material based on [the substance] and cross-linking diacrylate groups to polymer chains through a photoreaction using safe blue light, enhanced mechanical and rheological properties are provided. Through this, it was possible to confirm the stable delivery of embolization material in a cerebral aneurysm model and the maintenance of its morphology for an extended period even in environments of high arterial pressure. Furthermore, since the delivery process of the embolization material can be monitored in real-time through contrast imaging, there is significant potential for its application in actual surgical procedures.
[0099] In addition, the present invention can be applied not only to cerebral aneurysms but also to other aneurysm embolization procedures, and is expected to overcome the limitations of existing embolization materials by providing stability in which the embolization material maintains its shape for more than two weeks, particularly in high-pressure environments. Consequently, the present invention can contribute to increasing the success rate of embolization and improving the safety of surgery.
