Description

Atomizing agent with arformoterol and glycopyrronium bromide as active ingredients and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of medicines, and particularly relates to an atomizing agent with arformoterol and glycopyrronium bromide as active ingredients and a preparation method thereof. The invention also relates to the use of glycopyrronium bromide for increasing the stability of aqueous solutions of arformoterol.
Background
In recent years, the incidence and mortality of chronic respiratory diseases have increased significantly due to air pollution, smoking, aging population and other factors. Common Chronic respiratory diseases include Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), bronchial asthma, pulmonary infection, lung cancer, and the like. The incidence rate of the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is 8.2 percent in China and 14 percent in the United states. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is characterized by chronic progressive airflow obstruction, and mainly includes chronic bronchitis and chronic obstructive emphysema, and symptoms of the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease include cough, expectoration, short breath or dyspnea, wheezing, chest distress, etc. As a respiratory disease with extremely high disability and fatality rate, chronic pulmonary heart disease, right heart failure, respiratory failure, sleep disordered breathing and the like are often caused by slow lung obstruction, the life quality of a patient is seriously influenced, and the life safety of the patient is harmed.
In view of the specificity of the disease, COPD patients need to take medicines for a long time. The long-acting preparation is helpful for reducing the times of medication, improving the compliance of patients and improving the quality of life.
In terms of drug selection, the beta receptor agonist has a great improvement effect on the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. They activate adenylate cyclase, catalyze intracellular Adenosine triphosphate (ATP, Adenosine triphosphate), activate protein kinase A, increase Na+、K+、Ca2+Exchange inside and outside cells, reduce free Ca inside cells2 +Thereby relaxing and relaxing the smooth muscle of the bronchus and playing the role of relieving asthma. And simultaneously can reduce the release of allergic mediators from cells, particularly mast cells.
Arformoterol, also known as (R, R) -formoterol, is a single optical isomer of racemic formoterol and has the structural formula shown below. Arformoterol long-acting beta2Receptor agonists, are clinically useful in the treatment of chronic pulmonary obstruction. Currently marketed formoterol contains two configurations, R and S, S. The research shows that the biological activity of the arformoterol ((R, R) -formoterol) is more than 1000 times of that of the (S, S) -formoterol configuration, and the arformoterol does not have the side effect that the (S, S) -formoterol strengthens acetylcholine to cause bronchoconstriction reaction.
Figure BDA0001333909780000021
The commercial product of arformoterol abroad is an inhalation liquid under the trade name Brovana, but the stability of the solution is poor (HPLC assay for arformoterol in dry powder inhalants, muxu huaxi pharma journal, 2011.03). CN 1333682 a (entitled "storable formoterol-containing active substance concentrate") teaches that formoterol is not sufficiently stable to be stored in solution so that the pharmaceutical quality of the formulation during long-term storage cannot be ensured, and that formoterol is therefore restricted to powder administration for inhalation therapy. In this regard, CN 1333682 a provides a concentrate in the form of a liquid or suspension containing a formoterol active. However, the concentration of the active substance in the concentrate is so high that the corresponding solution or suspension is not available for inhalation for therapeutic use without dilution.
Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor antagonists are able to inhibit their action by blocking the binding of acetylcholine to the receptor. Glycopyrronium Bromide (Glycopyrronium Bromide) is a novel anticholinergic agent with the structural formula shown below. Glycopyrrolate can powerfully and selectively block M3 receptors (muscarinic receptors), can generate more lasting bronchoprotective and bronchodilatory effects, and has quick response and the bronchodilatory effect lasts for more than 24 hours. Glycopyrrolate has a faster onset of action than tiotropium bromide by about 3-5 times, and is well tolerated as compared to tiotropium bromide. However, glycopyrrolate cannot be mixed with basic drugs, ester groups are easily hydrolyzed when the pH is greater than 6, and highly polarized amino groups in glycopyrrolate limit the permeation of glycopyrrolate through lipid membranes, so that the glycopyrrolate is not favorable for binding with lung cell membrane surface receptors to exert drug effects, and the exertion of the drug effects of glycopyrrolate is limited to a certain extent.

At present, most of the medicament dosage forms for treating chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in the market are dry powder or aerosol. However, due to the particularity of the aerosol, the requirement on the patient compliance during the administration process is high, professional medical staff are required to guide the administration mode and require the patient to inhale synchronously, otherwise the treatment effect is greatly influenced, and especially for the old and the children with weak receptivity, the administration effect is possibly not ideal. In addition, the aerosol or dry powder dosage form requires the patient to inhale and hold breath, which affects the lung function of the patient suffering from lung diseases, and it is difficult to achieve the air flow rate required for the drug of the dosage form to exert the ideal drug effect.
Furthermore, EP 1157689 and CN 102665679 mention that formoterol fumarate aerosols are relatively unstable and degrade significantly under high temperature, high humidity conditions.
In addition, animal experiments show that the incidence of lung cancer is significantly increased after long-term administration of insulin dry powder. Although it is not yet certain whether it is caused by a drug, it is also caused by the dosage form itself for pulmonary administration (retrospective analysis of the treggio insulin dry powder inhalant Exubera document [ J ] south pharmaceutical, 2009:7 (10)).
In contrast, the nebulizer does not require a micronization step, avoiding possible negative effects; the special cooperation of the patient is not needed, the operation is simpler, and the normal breathing state is kept, so that the problem of uncoordinated breathing starting is avoided; and can also avoid the problems of incompatibility of the propellant in the medicament and the aerosol, and the like.
However, the aqueous solution of arformoterol is relatively unstable, for example, arformoterol tartrate undergoes significant degradation under acid, alkali, high temperature, light and oxidation conditions, and significant degradation products are generated. Therefore, there are few nebulizers in the prior art that involve arformoterol, which nebulizers use water as a solvent.
In view of this, there is a need to develop a simple to operate, use-stable nebuliser for arformoterol.

Compound of arformoterol tartrate (AF) and Glycopyrronium Bromide (GB) 29.73 10.44
The results show that the content of arformoterol tartrate in the arformoterol tartrate single formulation is 10.33%, the content of glycopyrronium bromide in the glycopyrronium bromide single formulation is 4.44%, and the content of arformoterol tartrate and glycopyrronium bromide in the arformoterol tartrate and glycopyrronium bromide compound formulation is 29.73% and 10.44%, respectively. Compared with each single component, the compound has significant difference (P < 0.05). Therefore, compared with the arformoterol tartrate single atomizing agent, the stability of the arformoterol tartrate is remarkably improved by adding the glycopyrronium bromide. From the chemical structure analysis of the two, it is possible that glycopyrronium bromide contains hydroxyl and ester groups in the molecule, and the glycopyrronium bromide can form hydrogen bonds with the hydroxyl, carboxyl and other groups in the arformoterol tartrate, so that the stability of the arformoterol tartrate is enhanced.
