Description

Fulvestrant injection preparation and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of medicines, in particular to a fulvestrant injection preparation and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Breast cancer is a cancerous disease in which breast gland epithelial cells undergo genetic mutation under the action of various oncogenes, so that the cells lose normal characteristics, abnormally proliferate and unordered squeeze and erode and destroy surrounding normal tissues. The breast cancer has the characteristics of strong invasiveness, difficult healing and slow disease progression. The statistics report of cancer in 2018 shows that the new incidence of breast cancer in 2014 China is about 27.89 ten thousand, which accounts for 16.51% of all malignant tumors of females, and the first place of malignant tumors of females is located. According to the international cancer research institutes report of the world health organization, the incidence rate and the death rate of female breast cancer in China are at a lower level in the world, but the incidence rate of female breast cancer accounts for 11.2% of the number of the incidence of female breast cancer in the world, and the incidence rate of female breast cancer death rate is as high as 9.2% in the United states, so that the prevention and control situation is not optimistic.
The chinese anticancer association indicates that although the incidence of chinese breast cancer is lower than in western countries, young patients are relatively more frequent due to the huge population base of our country, which is the leading world. Especially, the incidence rate of cities such as Beijing, shanghai and Tianjin is close to the level of developed countries in Europe and America, the average age of breast cancer diagnosis in China is 45-55 years old, 10-20 years old compared with western females, and patients under 35 years old account for about 10% to 15%. Meanwhile, china is one of countries with the highest rate of increase of the incidence rate of breast cancer, the rate of increase of the incidence rate of breast cancer is 3% each year, and the burden of preventing and treating cancers is still continuously increasing.
Fulvestrant, unlike Tamoxifen (TAM) and aromatase inhibitors aromatase inhibitors, AIs), is a novel estrogen receptor (estrogen receptor, ER) antagonist with novel mechanism of action that can act as an antitumor effect by blocking and degrading ER, reducing ER expression levels. Fulvestrant injection was developed by the pharmaceutical company aslicon and approved for sale in the united states in 2002, in europe and in 2010, respectively, under the trade name of fushide (specification: 0.25g;5 ml), approved for recurrence after or during anti-estrogen co-therapy, or for postmenopausal (including natural and artificial menopause) estrogen receptor positive locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer progressing in anti-estrogen therapy.
Commercially available fulvestrant injection and FushidePrescription composition: fulvestrant, ethanol (96% v/v), benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate and castor oil, and the benzyl benzoate has stimulation to eyes, skin, mucous membrane and upper respiratory tract in the preparation process according to the prescription, and protective articles such as masks, gloves and eyeshields are needed to be worn during operation, but the medical device still has potential threat to operators. Whereas fulvestrant also has a number of disadvantages for administration as an intramuscular injection, for example, the injection site response, including transient pain and inflammation, is that of an oil needle +.>One of the most common drug-related events reported is Bross, P.F.FDA Drug Approval Summaries:Fulvestrant [ J]The Oncololist 2002,7 (6): 477-480. If frequent administration is carried out, only events such as nerves, tissue injury, allergy and the like are increased continuously, and the safety of medication and the compliance of patients are affected.
The fulvestrant oil needle preparation disclosed in the patent CN103083231A and the patent CN103083236A respectively adopts soybean oil for injection and corn oil for injection as excipients; fulvestrant pharmaceutical composition disclosed in patent CN103070871B and prepared from medium-chain triglycerideInstead of benzyl benzoate, to reduce the irritation of benzyl benzoate. Although soybean oil for injection, corn oil for injection and medium chain glyceride are used as a nontoxic and high-safety functional greaseThe improvement is carried out on the basis of the above, but the transient pain condition caused by the high viscosity of the oil injection is not fundamentally changed, and meanwhile, in the aspect of preparation technology, the cleaning of the residual oil agent on the pipeline brings great test.
Patent CN103221052a discloses fulvestrant compositions and methods of use, wherein fulvestrant is included with the cyclodextrin being water-soluble unsubstituted or substituted α -cyclodextrin, β -cyclodextrin or γ -cyclodextrin to make a water-soluble formulation, which solves the problem of indissolvable fulvestrant, and also solves the problems of pain, injury and the like caused by injection of oil needle agent, but also brings the problem of renal toxicity of cyclodextrin while using cyclodextrin. Although it has been reported that hydroxyhydrocarbyl-beta-cyclodextrin appears to be less toxic than unsubstituted or alkylated cyclodextrin, and may be potentially useful for intravenous injection, the toxicity problem remains to be alert.
Patent CN101108168B discloses a preparation method of fulvestrant sustained-release microspheres, which is believed to have excellent effects of round morphology, uniform particle size distribution, drug loading up to more than 7%, encapsulation rate up to more than 80% and the like. The microsphere can volatilize all residual organic solvents in the microsphere only when the microsphere completely presents a solid structure, and is not ideal in preparation processing, for example, the production process is complex, pilot scale amplification is difficult and the like, and the release behavior of the microsphere in clinic is difficult to control and the like. Thus, it would be highly desirable to provide fulvestrant for injection that can be dissolved or diluted in an aqueous vehicle.

Test example 1 irritation test of fulvestrant preparation
The fulvestrant injection preparations prepared in examples 1 to 6 and the fulvestrant freeze-dried preparation prepared in example 7 were subjected to experiments after re-dissolution of glucose injection.
Irritation refers to a reversible inflammatory response to the site of administration after administration of a non-oral formulation, and is referred to as corrosiveness if irreversible tissue damage occurs at the site of administration. The irritation test is to observe whether the blood vessel, muscle, skin, mucosa, etc. of animal is in contact with the test substance to cause local reaction such as red swelling, congestion, exudation, denaturation or necrosis. Therefore, referring to the technical guidelines for drug irritation, allergy and hemolytic studies issued by the national drug administration of the 2014 national drug administration, rabbits were selected as the irritation test animals, 3 animals per group were treated with physiological saline as a control, and the administration was respectively injected into the left and right quadriceps femoris muscle of the rabbits by a peer left and right self-contrast method, and local reactions after administration were observed, such as congestion, redness, and the like. The local stimulation response of the injection was observed by a section examination 48 hours after administration, and a local histopathological examination was performed, and the corresponding response level was calculated as shown in table 1. The total muscle irritation response level was calculated according to table 1, the average value was calculated, and the irritation level was determined according to table 2. The results of the irritation of fulvestrant formulations are given in table 3. If the difference between the highest and lowest of the quadriceps response levels is greater than 2, the animals should be retested.
