Reach according to clinical
The result of study of itself shows, the reference inlet port target level of product quality adopts the oar method, and 0.1M HCL is dissolution medium, and rotating speed is that 1000ml/50rpm measures, and imatinib mesylate 10min dissolution can surpass 90%.And according to
The prepared tablet stripping of disclosed method not exclusively or slowly, under 0.1M HCL 1000ml/50rpm (oar method) leaching condition, 10min dissolution less than 60%.If when research worker of the present invention is also found to adopt wet granulation technology according to described in the patent CN03808869.X, do not use hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, and only use microcrystalline Cellulose to be binding agent, then can't granulation, and this patent application does not have to disclose the stripping experimental result of this tablet yet.
Certainly; existing many unit applications Orally administered composition or the preparation patent of imatinib mesylate, comprise the solid solution for the protection of astable crystal formation (CN200780032344.9) and the solid dispersion (CN200880007989.1) of the application of Novartis and Reddys Lab Ltd..A kind of imatinib mesylate chewable tablet of Beijing Chengchuang Kangyun Medicine Technology Co., Ltd.'s application and preparation method thereof (CN200810226590.4), a kind of imatinib mesylate orally disintegrating tablets and preparation method thereof (CN200810226591.9) and a kind of effervescent tablet that contains imatinib mesylate and preparation method thereof (CN200810226592.3).The clathrate of a kind of alpha crystal imatinib of Shenzhen Haiwang Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd's application and preparation method thereof (CN201010570254.9).The imatinib mesylate polymorph of Nanjing Cavan Dixu Biologicgal Enginnering Technology Co., Ltd's application and the Pharmaceutical composition (CN201110032923.1) of corresponding crystal formation.
Oral drugs absorb with dissolved state after entering in the body, and imatinib mesylate itself is easily molten, the crystal formation of imatinib mesylate is stable beta crystal among the present invention, there is no need to adopt complicated process means to make solid solution, solid dispersion or clathrate; Imatinib mesylate has bitterness, and digestive tract is had stimulation, there is no need also to be not suitable for making chewable tablet or oral cavity disintegration tablet, stimulates distance because these two kinds of preparations will prolong; The environmental requirement that the need of production of effervescent tablet is special, and take effervescent tablet and also can prolong the stimulation distance.
Imatinib mesylate wishes after taking and can reach rapidly blood drug level and onset, yet prior art is failed to provide a kind of and formed and preparation technology is simple, can realize the imatinib mesylate pharmaceutical composition that medicine discharges fast.
Summary of the invention
The invention provides and a kind ofly form her horse of the methanesulfonic acid simple, that stripping is rapid, dissolution is high for solid composite and preparation method thereof.Can reach when characteristics of the present invention are prepared tablet 10min fully and discharge.Adopt dry granulation, avoided the use of granulation solvent, shortened simultaneously the granulation time; Especially can avoid the use of the organic solvents such as ethanol, greatly improve the safety of producing.
The invention provides a kind of methylsulfonic acid imatinib tablet agent that can discharge rapidly medicine, contain imatinib mesylate and pharmaceutical excipient, it is characterized in that the weight of contained imatinib mesylate accounts for 45%~60% of tablet total weight amount.
Wherein, described drug excipient comprises: based on the disintegrating agent of tablet total weight amount meter 10%~25%, based on the filler of tablet total weight amount meter 20%~40%, based on the lubricant of tablet total weight amount meter 1%~5%.
Wherein, described imatinib mesylate is beta crystal.
Wherein, disintegrating agent is polyvinylpolypyrrolidone, cross-linking sodium carboxymethyl cellulose or carboxymethyl starch sodium or its combination in any.Filler is microcrystalline Cellulose.Lubricant is silicon dioxide, magnesium stearate, Pulvis Talci or Polyethylene Glycol or its combination in any.
The present invention also provides a kind of method for preparing described methylsulfonic acid imatinib tablet agent, comprises the steps:
1. with imatinib mesylate and adjuvant mix homogeneously, wherein adjuvant comprise filler, in add the lubricant of part and the disintegrating agent of Nei Jia part;
2. dry granulation;
3. adding adds adjuvant, mix homogeneously, and wherein adding adjuvant is the lubricant of Extra Section and the disintegrating agent of Extra Section;
4. tabletting.
Wherein, the disintegrating agent ratio that adds part and Extra Section in is 1: 3~3: 1.In add part and the lubricant ratio of Extra Section is 1: 2~2: 1.
Wherein, step 2. in tabletting pressure be 3~10MPa.
It is more that adjuvant uses, and namely the raw material proportion is less, then is conducive to disintegrate and the stripping of tablet, on the contrary the disintegrate of tablet and stripping all can slow down, dissolution also can reduce.During forming, each prescription of the present invention also found similar phenomenon.When the imatinib mesylate proportion surpasses 60%, regulate supplementary product kind and consumption and all can not realize the target that medicine discharges fully when 10min.Certainly, immoderate increase supplementary product consumption is also improper, can bring following two shortcomings: (1) increases production cost; (2) volumes of formulation is excessive, is unfavorable for swallowing.Research worker of the present invention is found, when increasing supplementary product consumption, when making imatinib mesylate proportion less than 45%, the dissolution that dissolution during prepared tablet 10min is not significantly higher than the imatinib mesylate proportion when being 45%~60% tablet 10min, and this moment with dosage be the 400mg imatinib when making tablet the weight of tablet will surpass 1066mg, be unfavorable for swallowing.So the ratio of imatinib mesylate is decided to be 45%~60%.
Disintegrating agent can be selected from polyvinylpolypyrrolidone, cross-linking sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, carboxymethyl starch sodium, and disintegrating agent accounts for 10%~25% of total amount.Research worker of the present invention is found, when the disintegrating agent ratio is less than 10%, how to be regulated the target that discharges fully when prescription all can't be realized 10min.Add in disintegrating agent is existing and add, in to add ratio be 1: 3~3: 1, the dissolution when exceeding this ratio during 10min reduces obviously.
Contained filler is microcrystalline Cellulose, and filler can account for 20%~40% of tablet gross mass.Microcrystalline Cellulose has certain advantage than other filleies on mobile and water swellability, be conducive to the disintegrate of tablet.Research worker of the present invention has also been attempted such as filleies such as starch, dextrin, and effect is all not as microcrystalline Cellulose, the target that discharges fully in the time of mostly can not realizing 10min.
The present invention with lubricator is silicon dioxide, magnesium stearate, Pulvis Talci, Polyethylene Glycol, also can mix use.Account for the 1%-5% of tablet gross mass.
Why the present invention adopts dry granulation, is because research worker of the present invention has been attempted the openly interior a lot of prescriptions of scope of wet granulation preparation, the target that discharges fully when all not having to realize 10min.And the particle diameter of finding crude drug does not have impact substantially on dissolution.
When dry granulation pressure is lower than 3MPa, can not become granule, almost be fine powder entirely.When dry granulation pressure was higher than 10MPa, dissolution descended after the compacting in flakes, and the dissolution during 10min is far below 85%.The target that discharges fully in the time of can realizing 10min when granulation pressure is 3~10MPa.Granulate again with failing the fine powder of granulating that once the result of extraction of the prepared sample of grain is the same for the result of extraction of rear prepared sample and system only.
If when research worker of the present invention is also found to adopt wet granulation technology according to not using hydroxypropyl methylcellulose only to use microcrystalline Cellulose as binding agent described in the patent CN03808869.X then can't granulation; If use hydroxypropyl methylcellulose then stripping is slack-off, the dissolution during 10min is lower than 85%.So research worker of the present invention thinks that microcrystalline Cellulose can not treat as binding agent in this kind, can only treat as filler.Compare with CN03808869.X, the present invention has avoided the use of binding agent hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, has realized that still the granule granulating is good, and stripping is effect rapidly.
