The invention relates to an antidiabetic pharmaceutical composition, more specifically to a pharmaceutical composition containing a DPP-4 inhibitor and metformin hydrochloride and a preparation method thereof. The composition contains DPP-4 inhibitor and metformin hydrochloride two active components, and meglumine as the stabilizer. The pharmaceutical composition has excellent storage stability and excellent dissolution characteristics. The invention also provides a preparation method of the composition, the auxiliary materials of the preparation technology are easily available and low in price, thus being suitable for industrial production.

The present invention is directed to novel pharmaceutical compositions comprising fixed dose combinations of a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor (DPP-4 inhibitor), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and simvastatin, or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, methods of preparing such pharmaceutical compositions, and methods of treating Type 2 diabetes and hypercholesterolemia with such pharmaceutical compositions. In particular, the invention is directed to pharmaceutical compositions comprising fixed-dose combinations of sitagliptin phosphate and simvastatin.

The invention provides a drug for treating hepatocellular carcinoma. The drug comprises a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor stimulant and/or a dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitor. The invention further provides application of the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor stimulant and/or dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitor to preparation of a drug for preventing or treating hepatocellular carcinoma, to preparation of a drug for liver function recovery after liver transplantation, and to preparation of a drug for preventing liver cancer relapse after liver transplantation. The glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor stimulant and/or dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitor generates a differential effect in a tissue specificity way, so as to inhibit cancer cell proliferation and promote cancer cell apoptosis, meanwhile, liver cells are protected against apoptosis, so that obesity-dependent liver cancer or non-dependent liver cancer can be treated or weakened.

The invention relates to a reagent for detection of biological activity of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). Each 100 microliters of the reagent mainly comprises 20 micrograms of a gene recombinant GLP-1 acceptor, a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor of which the weight is 1% of the weight of a blood plasma sample, 480 micrograms of triphosadenine, 10 micrograms of guanosine triphosphate, 0.5 milligrams of 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine and 100 microliters of a membrane reaction solution. The GLP-1 acceptor is obtained by genetic recombination, is convenient for purification and reduces batch difference of the reagent. The GLP-1 acceptor is used as a probe for capturing GLP-1 so that detection sensitivity is improved, biological activity can be directly determined, sensitivity is high, and practicality is strong.

The invention belongs to the technical field of medicine preparation, and discloses a pharmaceutical composition containing a therapeutically effective amount of a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) analogue and a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor and a preparation method thereof. The composition can effectively prevent, retard and treat type II diabetes, especially can effectively control the blood glucose concentration, and also can be used for treating diseases related to rising of the blood glucose concentration. In addition, the composition can reduce the use dosage of the GLP-1 analogue and the DPP-4 inhibitor, so as to effectively reduce side effects of the GLP-1 analogue and the DPP-4 inhibitor and improve the patient tolerance level.
