The invention changes the administration route of colchicine to form a new colchicine medicament form, so that the colchicine can be put into clinical use in the new medicament form.

Description

Colchicine composition for external use
The application is filed with application number of 2016109824148, application date of 2016, 11, 8 and application type of patent, and is named as colchicine composition for external use and a divisional application of a preparation method thereof.
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of medicines, and particularly relates to the field of medicines for treating gouty arthritis. In particular, the invention relates to a colchicine external composition for preventing or treating gouty arthritis, in particular to a colchicine liniment and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Gout is a disease caused by purine metabolic disorder in vivo, which is mainly manifested as hyperuricemia, and urate is precipitated and crystallized in joints, kidneys and connective tissues, so that local inflammation and granulocyte infiltration of the joints can be caused, and gout attack is caused. The incidence of gout increases year by year worldwide. In China, the incidence rate of the disease also rises year by year, and the onset age shows a low-age trend, which brings huge burden to the society. According to statistics, the number of potential gout diseases in China reaches hundreds of millions, and about 3500 thousands of gout diseases have been diagnosed.
At present, the drugs for treating gout clinically according to the mode of action can be divided into five types: 1. an anti-granulocyte-infiltrating agent such as colchicine; 2. analgesic and anti-inflammatory agent (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug), such as indomethacin, phenylbutazone, diclofenac, naproxen, sulindac, ibuprofen, etc.; 3. corticotropin or glucocorticoids, such As Corticotropin (ACTH) or prednisone; 4. drugs for promoting uric acid excretion, such as probenecid, sulindac, benzbromarone, etc.; 5. uric acid production-inhibiting agents, such as allopurinol.
Gout disease is characterized by hyperuricemia and characteristic acute arthritis, and repeated attacks can cause tophus deposition and gouty nephropathy. Acute rheumatic arthritis is the first symptom of gout, and most of the symptoms are acute, and mainly manifested as red, swollen, hot and severe pain of tissues around joints, fever and plasma leukocytosis. Colchicine can bind with tubulin of granulocyte, thereby preventing granulocyte activity, inhibiting granulocyte infiltration, interfering inflammatory reaction of leukocyte in dedifferentiation movement, and has specific effect on acute gouty arthritis. Colchicine is the first choice of traditional effective clinical drugs for acute attack of gouty arthritis and prevention of acute attack of recurrent gouty arthritis, however, the main toxic and side effects of colchicine are summarized as follows: 1. adverse reaction has obvious correlation with dosage size, and oral administration has higher safety than intravenous injection. Early adverse reactions, such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, vomiting and anorexia, occur at a rate of 80%, and severe cases may cause dehydration and electrolyte disorders. Severe hemorrhagic gastroenteritis or malabsorption syndrome can be seen after long-term administration; the nervous system adverse reactions are muscle and peripheral neuropathy including proximal muscle weakness and/or serum creatine kinase increase, and peripheral nerve axonal polyneuropathy can occur while muscle cells are damaged, and the peripheral nerve axonal polyneuropathy is manifested by numbness, stabbing pain and weakness. The muscular neuropathy is not common, and is often seen in patients who take the medicine for a long time and patients with mild renal insufficiency for preventing gout; thrombocytopenia, neutropenia and even aplastic anemia are frequently seen in intravenous medication patients and sometimes cause fatal risks; oliguria, hematuria, convulsion and consciousness disorder, which are commonly seen in intravenous medicines and the elderly, have high mortality rate; other adverse reactions include phlebitis, rash, alopecia and fever. 2. Due to the inconsistent knowledge of the efficacy and risk of colchicine in treating gout and the severity of its toxicity, caution must be exercised in selecting this drug. Intravenous injection and long-term oral administration are avoided as much as possible, and intravenous and oral routes are prohibited. 3. It is forbidden for patients with myelodysplasia and hepatic and renal insufficiency, pregnant women and children under 2 years old. 4. It should be used with cautions for the elderly and those with potential damage to liver and kidney functions. 5. The blood routine and the liver and kidney functions must be regularly checked. 6. The medicine can cause reversible malabsorption of vitamin B12. 7. The composition can enhance the effect of central nervous system inhibitor and enhance the response of sympathomimetic agent. 8. The medicine is not suitable for preventing the onset of gouty arthritis for a long time. 9. Intravenous injection of this product is limited to fasting patients, such as during gout attacks following surgery. 10. Patients with serious adverse reactions need to stop taking the medicine immediately and rescue the medicine for the symptoms.
In view of the above-mentioned toxic side effects, the clinical application of the drug is greatly limited. In order to overcome or reduce the toxic and side effects caused by oral administration of colchicine, a large amount of work has been put into development and research of new formulations of colchicine by pharmacists for many years. Yi Wei Zhi (colchicine adhesive plaster for treating acute gouty arthritis, China new medicine and clinical journal, 2001, 20(5): 373) 374) prepares the colchicine adhesive plaster for treating patients with acute attack stage of the gouty arthritis, and the result shows that the local inflammation is obviously improved and the joint edema is obviously improved; the colchicine gel is prepared by the aged colchicine and the like (influence of different matrixes and transdermal enhancers on the external transdermal property of the colchicine gel, Waxi pharmacy journal, 2005, 20(6): 521-; cao Chong et al (preparation and clinical observation of Compound colchicine gel, J. Pharmacology, China, 2007, 27(10):1445-1447) prepared Compound colchicine gel and observed its clinical effect. At present, only colchicine patches are approved to enter clinical research and production, but the external preparation is not yet on the market, and the external preparation is probably lower in drug transdermal permeability and still has uncertain clinical curative effect. Liuxia et al (colchicine liposome gel for anti-inflammatory action of gout model animals, Guangdong medicine 2011, 32(23):3038-3040) prepared colchicine liposome gel for anti-inflammatory action of gout model animals.
The research results of the above documents reveal that colchicine changes the administration route and can become a new breakthrough for the research of the new dosage form of the medicine through transdermal absorption, but the research still does not form a commodity to serve the majority of patients.

2 methods and results
2.1 basis for selection of dosage forms
The selected dosage form of the invention is liniment, which is a traditional dosage form, has simple preparation process, convenient industrial production and convenient use, and can be self-administered by patients. The liniment is a solution, emulsion or suspension prepared from the medicine and a solvent and used for external application of skin. The liniment of the invention is a homogeneous liquid preparation for external use. Colchicine is administered transdermally for the topical treatment of gouty arthritis. Therefore, the control of the drug concentration of colchicine through transdermal absorption is the key of the invention, toxic and side effects can be caused after the high concentration is absorbed by the whole body, and the low concentration cannot achieve the effective treatment of the gouty arthritis, so the design of the drug administration dose is very important.
2.2 determination of the amount of Primary medicament
At present, the effective concentration of colchicine in the invention is in the range of 0.01-1.0%, and the specification of the external colchicine film agent related to the literature report is 0.2%. The invention takes the specification as the basis, selects the concentration of 0.2 percent as the optimal dosage and optimizes the prescription and the process.
2.3 prescription screening of colchicine linimentum
In order to obtain the optimal colchicine liniment prescription, the invention respectively screens and optimizes the prescription and the process from the aspects of solvent, cosolvent, penetration enhancer, emulsifier and the like of the prescription, and establishes the optimal prescription and the preparation process.
2.3.1 selection of vehicle
The choice of vehicle is critical to the invention. The selection principle of the solvent is as follows: no irritation to the skin; the dissolubility to the main medicine is good; has stable physicochemical properties, and is not incompatible with main drugs; and does not interfere with the measurement of the main medicine; meets the medical standard. The drug solubility and stability are used as indexes for screening. The invention firstly mainly uses the premise of solving the solubility of the main drug and selects the solvent by taking the performance stability as an index.
According to the physicochemical property of colchicine, the colchicine is dissolved in water to form hydrate which can affect transdermal absorption, so that water is not selected as a solvent. Selecting a composite permeation-assisting solvent system of an organic solvent. And then the stability of the colchicine is improved by adding other proper stabilizing agents.
The solvent used in the invention is selected from one or more of glycerol triacetate, ethyl acetate, isopropanol, polyethylene glycol, glycerol monoacetate, glycerol diacetate, glycerol triacetate, glycerol monooleate, glycerol dioleate, glycerol trioleate, propylene glycol ester, polyoxyethylene castor oil, benzyl acetate, diacetyl monoglyceride, diacetyl tartaric acid (mono, di) glycerol, glycerol diacetate, triethanolamine oleate, triglycerol caprylate, triglycerol caprate, benzyl butyrate and dimethicone, preferably is glycerol triacetate or polyethylene glycol, and the polyethylene glycol is preferably polyethylene glycol-200, polyethylene glycol-300, polyethylene glycol-400, polyethylene glycol-600, polyethylene glycol-900, polyethylene glycol-1000, polyethylene glycol-1450, polyethylene glycol-3350, polyethylene glycol-1, polyethylene glycol-300, polyethylene glycol-2, polyethylene glycol-1, polyethylene glycol-2, polyethylene glycol-1, polyethylene glycol-di (A) and/or polyethylene glycol-1, Polyethylene glycol-4000, polyethylene glycol-4500, polyethylene glycol-6000 or polyethylene glycol-8000.
Most preferably, the triacetyl glycerine is used as a main solvent to dissolve the medicine, and the triacetyl glycerine also has a certain antibacterial effect when being used locally. Is non-toxic, non-irritating to the skin and generally considered safe (FDA 1985). The prescription is screened by using the solvent as a basic solvent.
2.3.2 selection of Co-solvents
The co-solvent used in the present invention is a polyol, preferably ethylene glycol, propylene glycol or glycerol, more preferably 1, 2-propanediol.

Other prescriptions of the invention (e.g. prescriptions ii, iii, iv of example one 2.5.1) also have similar therapeutic effects.
2.3 results the root cause of acute gouty arthritis is the precipitation of crystals of sodium urate in the local joints caused by hyperuricemia. The model of gouty arthritis caused by local joint injection of sodium urate is considered as a classic gouty arthritis molding method and can be used for evaluating the curative effect of anti-gouty arthritis drugs.
Colchicine as the first choice medicine for modern medicine treatment of acute gout can inhibit phagocytosis of urate crystal by neutrophil, block release of chemotactic factor, reduce polymorphonuclear leukocyte flow and adhesion, inhibit tyrosine phosphorylation and leukotriene B4 production, thereby reducing deposition of urate crystal, relieving inflammation reaction, and eliminating swelling and pain. However, the toxic and side effects of colchicine are as described above, and the colchicine is orally administered according to the standard specified by the pharmacopoeia, 50-80% of patients have gastrointestinal tract reaction before the curative effect appears, and dehydration, electrolyte disorder and other manifestations are caused by severe patients, and most patients cannot tolerate the colchicine. In order to avoid the toxic and side effects of colchicine, the colchicine liniment in the embodiment of the invention can be quickly absorbed through skin and enter the cuticle of the skin, thus reducing the drug entering blood circulation and avoiding the toxic and side effects caused by systemic distribution.
The colchicine liniment has reliable anti-inflammatory effect on rats with gout models, and provides basis for clinical treatment of acute gouty arthritis.
EXAMPLE III Studies on the irritation and sensitization of colchicine linimentum to skin
Toxicological research is a key link in drug research and development, and determines whether drugs can enter clinic or not and whether the drugs are safe to use or not. The chemical irritation and allergy refer to the local toxicity (such as irritation and allergy) and/or systemic toxicity (such as irritation and hemolysis) of the chemical preparation administered by non-oral route such as eye, ear, nose, oral cavity, respiratory tract, joint cavity, skin, rectum, vagina, vein, artery, muscle, subcutaneous, intravenous and intrathecal route. It is a component of preclinical safety assessment.
The colchicine liniment is a novel colchicine dosage form, the effective treatment amount of the colchicine liniment is close to the systemic toxic amount based on the oral dosage of colchicine tablets, and the systemic toxic and side effects are large in clinical application. For the safety of clinical use, the skin irritation and sensitization of colchicine liniment were examined on the skin of two animals, white rabbits and guinea pigs.

2.1 Experimental methods
2.1.1 Single skin irritation test
New Zealand big ear white rabbits 15, weight 2-2.5kg, divided into three groups of 5 animals each. One group is complete skin group (one side of back is coated with colchicine liniment, the other side is coated with blank solvent), two groups are damaged skin group (one side of back is coated with colchicine liniment, the other side is coated with blank solvent), and three groups are commercially available control groups (one side of back is complete skin, the other side is damaged skin).
24h before the test, the hair on the back of both sides is shaved by a shaver, and the hair removal range is about 3 multiplied by 3cm respectively2. The damaged skin is marked with a needle to bleed. The test uses the homeomorphic left and right self-control method.
The intact skin groups were examined for lesions prior to administration. During the test, two layers of gauze (2.5X 2.5 cm) are used2) Covering on the skin with hair removed on one side, directly dripping 0.5ml of the tested substance on gauze, covering with fresh-keeping film, and fixing with non-irritant adhesive plaster and common adhesive plaster; the other side of the method is the same. Three groups were applied for 6 hours.
After 6 hours, the test article was removed and the administration site was cleaned with warm water, and erythema, edema, and the like at the application site were visually observed and recorded at 1, 24, 48, and 72 hours after the removal of the test article, respectively. The scoring standard is detailed in guidance of research technology on irritation, allergy and hemolysis of chemical drugs.
2.1.2 multiple skin irritation tests
The grouping and administration method of the test animals are the same as that of the single irritation test, and the administration is carried out at the same time for three consecutive days. 1 hour after each removal of the drug and before reapplication, erythema and edema, whether pigmentation, bleeding spots, rough or thin skin, and the time of occurrence and time of regression were observed and recorded at the application site, and erythema and edema were scored.
After 6 hours from the last application, the drug was removed, and the presence of erythema and edema at the application site was visually observed and recorded at 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours from the removal of the drug, respectively. The scoring standard is detailed in guidance of research technology on irritation, allergy and hemolysis of chemical drugs.
Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS11.5 statistical software processing using random sample analysis of variance and chi-square test, with a significance level a of 0.05.
2.1.3 sensitization test
Guinea pigs 55 were divided into three groups. Is colchicine liniment group, blank solvent group and sensitization positive control drug group respectively. The grouping method includes numbering the male and female separately and grouping with random number list. Of these, 25 (13 males, 12 females) were tested; the blank vehicle group was 15 (8 of them were male, 7 were female); 15 positive control groups (7 males, 8 females).
Administration dose: colchicine liniment: the sensitizing dose is 1ml, and the stimulating dose is 0.1 ml; blank solvent: the sensitizing dose is 1ml, and the stimulating dose is 0.1 ml; positive control drug: 1ml of 1% 2, 4-dinitrochlorobenzene was prepared from 75% ethanol in sensitization concentration, and 1ml of 0.1% 2, 4-dinitrochlorobenzene was prepared from 75% ethanol in excitation concentration.

1 the stimulation data at each time point in the table are the mean of the stimulation scores of different animals at the same time in each group 2 the mean of the stimulation scores at each time point of different animals in the same group
The results of statistical analysis show that the single skin irritation test has no significant difference (P >0.05) between the colchicine liniment and the blank solvent in the intact skin and the damaged skin groups respectively; compared with the whole skin and the damaged skin of the same test object, the irritation of the test object is not obviously different (P > 0.05). The irritation scores in the intact skin group are both 0-0.49, and the irritation scores in the damaged skin group are both 0.5-2.99, i.e. both of the two test substances have no irritation to the intact skin of the white rabbit with big ear, and have slight irritation to the damaged skin.
Multiple irritation tests showed no significant difference between colchicine liniment and vehicle blank (P >0.05) in intact skin group; in the damaged skin group, the colchicine liniment has no significant difference with the blank solvent. The same subjects showed no significant difference between the intact skin group and the damaged skin group.
2.2.2 Guinea pig skin sensitization test
The skin reactions of guinea pigs were observed at different stages and the scores of the skin reactions were recorded, the average of the scores of the same group was used as the skin reaction score, and the data of the three time points of the challenge stage were scored comprehensively, and the results are shown in tables 3 to 3. The skin reactions of the animals in the challenge and sensitization phases were observed and the calculated incidence rates are summarized in tables 3-4. The weight difference was calculated by weighing the guinea pigs at the beginning and end of the test, and the results are shown in tables 3-5.

TABLE 3-5 weight of guinea pigs
Figure BDA0003067282710000202
P is less than 0.05, and the blank solvent is compared with colchicine liniment
Statistical analysis in tables 3-3 showed that there was no significant difference in the combined skin response scores (P >0.05) between the three sensitized colchicine liniment groups during the guinea pig sensitization phase and after challenge.
The statistical analysis in tables 3-4 shows that the skin reaction rate of the sensitized colchicine liniment group and the blank solvent group has significant difference (P is less than 0.001), and the skin reaction rate of the colchicine liniment group and the positive control group has no significant difference (P is more than 0.05). The skin reaction rate of the colchicine liniment group and the blank solvent group has significant difference (P is less than 0.001), and the skin reaction rate of the colchicine liniment group and the positive control group has no significant difference (P is more than 0.05). And the occurrence rate of the skin reaction of the colchicine liniment in the sensitization stage and after excitation has no significant difference (P is more than 0.05).
It can be seen from tables 3-3 and 3-4 that the guinea pigs showed positive skin reactions after three consecutive stimulations with colchicine liniment, the reaction incidence was about 82.6% higher, but the reactions were all slight, the average reaction value was 1.70, and there was no statistical difference between the skin reaction values and the incidence from the first sensitization results.
The statistical analysis in tables 3-5 shows that the weights of the guinea pigs in the three groups before the test are not statistically different (P >0.05), the weights of the guinea pigs in the three groups after the test are statistically different (P <0.001), the weights of the guinea pigs in the blank solvent group and the colchicine liniment group are statistically different (P <0.001), and the weights of the animals in the colchicine liniment group after the test are obviously lower than those in the blank solvent group and the positive control group. The colchicine liniment group animals showed a lower weight gain than the blank vehicle group during the test period and were statistically different. It is shown that the absorption of colchicine in colchicine liniment has a certain effect on the weight gain of guinea pigs.
Other prescriptions of the invention (e.g. prescriptions ii, iii, iv of example one 2.5.1) also have similar therapeutic effects.
3 conclusion
In an irritation test, the colchicine liniment has no irritation reaction to the skin after single administration on the intact skin and has slight reversible irritation to the damaged skin; multiple administrations of skin are slightly irritating, and both single and multiple administrations of damaged skin are slightly irritating. The mean irritation value of the liniment to damaged skin is 0.8, which shows that the colchicine liniment does not obviously increase the irritation of the skin after being used for many times. Especially, the repeated medication provides a safety basis for the clinical application of the preparation, and also achieves the aim and the requirement of the design of the preparation formulation.
In the sensitization test, the guinea pigs are sensitized and re-excited by colchicine liniment for three times, the skin reactions are positive in the sensitization stage and the excitation stage, but the reactions are slight, and the comprehensive scores of the skin reactions and the incidence rates of the skin reactions after the sensitization stage and the excitation stage have no significant difference (P is more than 0.05). Meanwhile, the blank solvent has no sensitization to the guinea pig skin, and the skin reaction after sensitization is considered as an irritant reaction in analysis, so that the colchicine liniment has no sensitization.
The weight of guinea pigs in the colchicine liniment group was lower than that in the vehicle group at the end of the test, and the related data also showed that colchicine had hepatotoxicity, nephrotoxicity, neurotoxicity. The human medicine dose can cause poisoning when reaching more than 6mg, and the dose of the preparation in the experimental process is the maximum dose in clinical use. Therefore, the drug property of the death genus bulk drug of two guinea pigs in the guinea pig normal weight gain inhibition and colchicine liniment group during the test is not greatly related to the preparation.
