Description

Composition for treating rheumatoid arthritis and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of medicinal preparations, and particularly relates to a composition for treating rheumatoid arthritis and application thereof.
Background
Rheumatoid arthritis is a clinically multiple disease condition, the incidence rate is about 1%, the disease involves multiple joints in the whole body, and finally the function of bones and joints is lost, and the life quality of patients is seriously affected. At present, although the clinical treatment can control the disease process, an effective cure means is still lacked, and the used medicines have strong side effects.
Tofacitinib is a Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor, is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to be on the market in 2012, is mainly used for treating rheumatoid arthritis, but is easy to reduce the immunity of an organism after being taken for a long time to cause serious infection; ibuprofen is one of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, has antipyretic and analgesic effects, can be clinically used for treating rheumatoid arthritis, but has a large dosage of 2.4 g/day and large side effect after long-term use.
Research shows that the long-term taking of tofacitinib can cause systemic infection, and ibuprofen can improve cellular immune function and improve anti-infection capacity. The tofacitinib and the ibuprofen are combined, so that the dosage of the ibuprofen can be obviously reduced, the curative effect is kept or improved, and the adverse reaction of the tofacitinib is reduced, which has great significance for patients.
Disclosure of Invention
In view of the above, the main objective of the present invention is to provide a composition for treating rheumatoid arthritis, so as to solve the problems in the prior art.
In order to achieve the purpose, the technical scheme of the invention is as follows:
a composition for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, said composition comprising component a and component B, said component a being tofacitinib or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, said component B being one or/and more of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
Preferably, the component B is one or more of aspirin, acetaminophen, diclofenac, indometacin, ibuprofen, sulindac, naproxen, nabumetone, piroxicam and celecoxib. Further preferably, the component B is ibuprofen.
Preferably, the component A is tofacitinib citrate.
Tofacitinib is a Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor. JAKs are intracellular enzymes that transmit signals on the cell membrane generated by cytokine or growth factor-receptor interactions to influence cellular processes of hematopoiesis and immune cell function. In the signaling pathway, JAKs phosphorylate and activate signal transducers and transcriptional activators (STATs), which regulate intracellular activities, including gene expression. Tofacitinib inhibits JAK regulatory signaling pathways, thereby preventing phosphorylation and activation of STATs. The JAK enzymes transmit cytokine signals through JAK partners (e.g., JAK1/JAK3, JAK1/JAK2, JAK1/TyK2, JAK2/JAK 2). Tofacitinib inhibited the in vitro activity of the JAK1/JAK2, JAK1/JAK3 and JAK2/JAK2 combinations with IC50 of 406, 56 and 1377 nM, respectively.
Ibuprofen inhibits COX-2 activity and blocks prostaglandin (PGE 2) synthesis. Ibuprofen directly inhibits the activation and aggregation of leukocytes and reduces the production of leukotriene B4 (leukocyte chemokines and activators). Ibuprofen can improve cellular immunity and improve anti-infection ability.
In an inflammatory pathway in RA, cytokines induce the enhancement of inflammatory gene expression through JAK pathway conduction, phosphorylated STATs perform gene regulation in cell nucleus, the expression of immune cytokines is up-regulated, inflammation is activated, COX-2 is highly expressed, and the highly expressed COX-2 is combined into a large amount of PGE2 to cause inflammation, edema and pain. Thus, inhibition of the JAK/STATs pathway conduction by inhibiting the JAK pathway at the upstream end, reduces cytokine expression and may interrupt the cycle of leukocyte recruitment, activation and expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines at the site of inflammation. At the downstream end, expression of PGE2 can be reduced by inhibiting COX-2 activity. Therefore, the combined application of tofacitinib and ibuprofen can block the cytokine passage at the upstream end and the downstream end of RA at the same time, and can play a role in synergistic treatment of RA. The synergistic mechanism of the combined use of tofacitinib and ibuprofen is shown in figure 1.
Due to the existence of the synergistic effect, the daily dosage of the ibuprofen can be reduced from 2.4 g/day to below 800 mg/day. Meanwhile, ibuprofen can improve the cellular immune function and improve the anti-infection capability, so that adverse reactions of serious infection caused by long-term administration of tofacitinib are reduced.
Pharmaceutical compositions of tofacitinib and ibuprofen, the route of administration includes, but is not limited to, the following: gastrointestinal administration, e.g., oral administration; parenteral administration, such as intramuscular, intravenous or transdermal administration. In the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, oral administration is preferred.
The composition for treating rheumatoid arthritis is characterized in that the weight ratio of the component A to the component B is 1: 30 to 240. Preferably, the weight ratio of the component a to the component B is 1: 50 to 200. Further preferably, the weight ratio of the component a to the component B is 1: 60 to 120. Still more preferably, the weight ratio of said component a to said component B is 1: 60-80.
Preferably, in the composition for treating rheumatoid arthritis, the component A is tofacitinib citrate, the component B is ibuprofen, and the weight ratio of tofacitinib citrate (calculated as tofacitinib) to ibuprofen is 1: 40 to 240. Preferably, the weight ratio of tofacitinib citrate (calculated as tofacitinib) to ibuprofen is 1: 50 to 200. Further preferably, the weight ratio of tofacitinib citrate (calculated as tofacitinib) to ibuprofen is 1: 60 to 120. Still more preferably, the weight ratio of tofacitinib citrate (calculated as tofacitinib) to ibuprofen is 1: 60-80.
Wherein the ibuprofen is lower than the single effective dose. By lower than single effective dose is meant a dose of ibuprofen in the combination which is lower than the amount normally expected to produce an effective therapeutic response when the components are administered separately.
The invention also aims to provide application of any one of the compositions in preparing a medicament for treating rheumatoid arthritis.
Alternative dosage forms for oral administration of the composition for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis include, but are not limited to: tablet, granule, capsule, and solution. Among them, sustained-release capsules are preferable.
The sustained-release capsule consists of particles containing tofacitinib and ibuprofen, wherein the particles can consist of one or/and more of micro-tablets and micro-pills.
The active ingredients of the granules are tofacitinib or/and ibuprofen, and the granules further comprise pharmaceutically acceptable auxiliary materials, wherein the auxiliary materials include but are not limited to: blank pellet core and adhesive.
The blank pill core comprises sucrose pill core, starch pill core, microcrystalline cellulose pill core, tartaric acid pill core, silicon dioxide pill core and mannitol pill core.
The binder comprises polyvidone, hypromellose, and hyprolose.
Preferably, the granules consist of immediate release granules comprising tofacitinib and sustained release granules comprising ibuprofen.

The results show that the combined application group of tofacitinib and ibuprofen can reduce the levels of IL-1 beta, IL-6, IgG and IgG2b more obviously than the single drug application group.
In the invention, although both tofacitinib and ibuprofen can be used for treating rheumatoid arthritis, the dosage and the effect of the tofacitinib and ibuprofen are unpredictable, and particularly, the prior art lacks the technical suggestion of predicting the treatment effect after dosage reduction. The invention combines two medicines with lower effective doses than the respective medicines, thereby not only reducing the toxic and side effects of tofacitinib, but also generating the beneficial effect of synergy and providing an important treatment selection for patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
The technical features of the embodiments described above may be arbitrarily combined, and for the sake of brevity, all possible combinations of the technical features in the embodiments described above are not described, but should be considered as being within the scope of the present specification as long as there is no contradiction between the combinations of the technical features.
The above-mentioned embodiments only express several embodiments of the present invention, and the description thereof is more specific and detailed, but not construed as limiting the scope of the invention. It should be noted that, for a person skilled in the art, several variations and modifications can be made without departing from the inventive concept, which falls within the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present patent shall be subject to the appended claims.
