Detailed Description
The invention aims to realize the quality control of the arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution or the production process of the arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution by measuring the diastereoisomer in the arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution. To achieve stringent quality control requirements, the quality control method of the present invention needs to solve several problems.
Firstly, the present invention needs to solve the problem of the separation degree between arformoterol and diastereoisomers in the detection of arformoterol tartrate inhalation solutions. The present inventors have found that arformoterol tartrate inhalation solutions generate impurity I during storage, and that as impurity I grows, a new unknown peak (as shown in fig. 3) appears between the arformoterol and the impurity I chromatographic peak, so that whether it is possible to provide a method with excellent resolution is one of the keys to accurately and quantitatively determine the content of impurity I.
Further, the present invention also needs to solve the problem of sensitivity for diastereomer detection in small-format arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution detection. It has been found that for small format product formulations such as arformoterol tartrate inhalation solutions (2 ml:15 μ g), it is desirable to provide a detection method which has a sensitivity of at least 0.1% minimum (i.e. 0.0075 μ g/ml or 0.0075ppm, with a reported limit of impurities in quality control of at least 0.1% for products having a maximum daily dose of less than 1 g). If the chromatographic method used for detecting the arformoterol impurity, including the existing method, is used, the sample amount cannot meet the requirement even if the sample amount is adjusted to be 100 mu l at most.
In addition, the problems of short service life, poor reproducibility, low precision, poor tolerance and the like of a chromatographic column in the detection of the arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution also need to be solved. The present invention finds that if a chromatographic column (for example, octadecyl bonding polyvinyl alcohol chromatographic column) commonly used in the current methods including the pharmacopoeia analogue detection method is used, the chromatographic column has short service life and poor tolerance, and the repeatability and precision of the result are difficult to meet the requirement.
To this end, the present inventors have developed a method for quality control of arformoterol tartrate inhalation solutions or processes for producing arformoterol tartrate inhalation solutions by high performance liquid chromatography detection using a chromatographic column based on octadecyl-bonded ethylene bridge hybrid particles.
In one aspect, the present invention provides a method for quality control of arformoterol tartrate inhalation solutions or of processes for the production of arformoterol tartrate inhalation solutions, said method comprising the step of determining the content of diastereomers in the arformoterol tartrate inhalation solutions by high performance liquid chromatography.
In another aspect, the present invention provides a method for detecting the presence of impurities in an arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution, wherein the method comprises the step of determining the presence of impurities in the arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution using high performance liquid chromatography.
In another aspect, the invention provides a method for detecting diastereoisomers in arformoterol tartrate solution, which comprises the step of determining the content of the diastereoisomers in the arformoterol tartrate solution by using high performance liquid chromatography.
In another aspect, the present invention provides a method for detecting whether impurities exist in an arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution, which includes the step of determining whether impurities exist in the arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution by using high performance liquid chromatography.

Figure BDA0003668966100000051
the term "diastereomer" as used herein refers to a diastereomer of arformoterol tartrate. Because the molecule has two chiral centers, 4 optical configurations are generated in total, wherein the arformoterol is in R, R configuration, and S, S isomer also exists in the arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution; the two formoterol optical isomers in the other two configurations, i.e. the R, S and S, R configurations, are referred to as diastereomers. The diastereoisomer of arformoterol tartrate is considered as an impurity. Herein, the terms "diastereomer of arformoterol tartrate", "diastereomer impurity", "impurity of arformoterol tartrate", and "impurity", "impurity I" have the same meaning and may be used interchangeably. The structural formula of the arformoterol tartrate diastereoisomer is as follows:

in some embodiments, the diastereomer or impurity in the arformoterol tartrate solution or inhalation solution is selected from at least one of:

The term "High Performance Liquid Chromatography" as used herein is known in the english name High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), also known as "High pressure Liquid Chromatography", "High Performance Liquid Chromatography", and the like. The principles, operating methods and process conditions of high performance liquid chromatography can be found, for example, in: zhang Danya, Yangjixing, high performance liquid chromatography classification and working principle [ J ] chemical engineering management, 2017(20): 113; in the morning, Zhang Ying, Juan Jue et al, laboratory HPLC safety and caution item [ J ] Guangzhou chemical 2022,50(4):115-117,120.DOI:10.3969/J. issn.1001-9677.2022.04.038; and Yangyuanjuan, and the maintenance and use cautions of the HPLC. Modern food, 2015(19), 66-68.DOI 10.3969/j. issn.1007-3582.2015.19.032. The operation of high performance liquid chromatography and the conditions required to achieve chromatographic separation will be well within the skill of the art.
The stationary phase in a chromatography column is usually composed of solid packing, which achieves separation of components by the difference in the type of force and the strength of action between the sample molecules. Depending on the packing, the column can be divided into: (1) a silica gel column; (2) a chromatographic column chemically bonded to a stationary phase; (3) a polymeric sphere chromatographic column; (4) a polymer-coated chromatography column; and (5) chromatographic columns of the microparticle porous carbon filler, wherein the chromatographic columns of the chemically bonded stationary phase are further divided into non-polar bonded chromatographic columns (octadecylsilane bonded silica is the most commonly used non-polar reversed-phase chromatographic column) and polar bonded chromatographic columns (commonly used amino columns, cyano columns, glycol-based columns and the like). Alternatively, the column may be classified into silica gel column, polymer column and other inorganic column, wherein the silica gel column is mainly based on silica gel, and various polar or weakly polar functional groups (such as C18(ODS), C8, C4, C6H5 or n-ethane, chlorine, dichloromethane, etc.) may be bonded on the surface of the silica gel column, and the polymer column is mostly poly-vinyl-divinylbenzene or poly-methyl propionate, etc.; other inorganic fillers such as graphitized carbon fillers, alumina, zirconia, and the like.
The term "octadecyl bonded ethylene bridged hybrid particle" as used herein is a high purity silica gel filler synthesized from two high purity monomers using inorganic, organic hybrid particle technology, which is mainly applied to the analysis of peptides and proteins. The invention relates to a chromatographic column adopting octadecyl bonded ethylene bridge impurity particles, belonging to silica gel chromatographic columns.
In some embodiments, the high performance liquid chromatography detection conditions comprise the use of octadecyl bonded ethylene bridged hybrid particles as packing material for the stationary phase of the chromatography column. In some embodiments, the chromatographic column using octadecyl bonded ethylene bridge hybrid particles as stationary phase packing is Waters XBridge Peptide BEH 300A C18, specification 4.6X 150mm,3.5 μm.
In some embodiments, the high performance liquid chromatography detection conditions comprise the use of octadecyl bonded ethylene bridged hybrid particles as packing material for the stationary phase of the chromatography column. In some embodiments, the chromatographic columns using octadecyl bonded ethylene bridge hybrid particles as stationary phase packing are YMC Triart C18, YMC Triart ExRs C18, and Phenomenex Titank C18, with a specification of 4.6X 150mm,3.5 μm.
In some embodiments, the chromatography column using octadecyl bonded ethylene bridge hybrid particles as stationary phase packing material is selected from one of the following: waters XBidge Peptide BEH 300A C18, YMC Triart C18, YMC Triart ExRs C18, and Phenomenex Titank C18. In some embodiments, the column using octadecyl bonded ethylene bridge hybrid particles as stationary phase packing material has a specification of 4.6 x 150mm,3.5 μm, and the column is selected from one of the following: waters XBidge Peptide BEH 300A C18, YMC Triart C18, YMC Triart ExRs C18, and Phenomenex Titank C18.
The inventor of the invention proves through experiments that no matter the current test method of the analogs in Chinese, United states or European pharmacopoeia (HPLC using octadecyl bonded polyvinyl alcohol chromatographic column) or the test method of raw material manufacturers (HPLC using octadecyl bonded polyvinyl alcohol chromatographic column) is adopted, when the arformoterol tartrate solution is tested, the obtained chromatogram shows that the main peak of arformoterol tartrate and the diastereoisomer impurity peak thereof cannot be separated from each other at the baseline, and the accurate quantitative detection of the diastereoisomer in the arformoterol tartrate solution cannot be realized.
The present inventors speculate that the above methods are all detection methods for testing arformoterol tartrate bulk drugs and not for diastereomers in arformoterol tartrate inhalation solutions. For example, most of the above methods are methods for detecting diastereoisomers in arformoterol tartrate, the concentration of the sample of the drug is 100 μ g/ml in normal injection, and the concentration of the sample of the drug is 7.5 μ g/ml in the case of arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution, which is different by 13 times. Furthermore, only 50ppm of diastereomer in the arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution was detected in the above method, but compared to the method of the present invention, 0.0075ppm of diastereomer in the arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution was detected by 6666 times.
The present inventors have unexpectedly found through experiments that the HPLC method can achieve detection of diastereoisomers in arformoterol solution when using octadecyl bonded ethylene bridge hybrid particles as a packing material for a column stationary phase, which is commonly used in the analysis of peptides and proteins, and the detection results show that the method can achieve excellent resolution, sensitivity and accuracy at the same time. The lowest detection sensitivity (limit of quantitation) of the method can reach 0.01 percent and the detection limit can be 0.00333 percent; and in most cases a degree of separation of more than 5.0 can be achieved.
The term "limit of detection" as used herein refers to the lowest concentration or lowest amount of a component being detected by an assay under specified experimental conditions.
The term "limit of quantitation" as used herein means that the analytical method can quantitatively determine the lowest concentration or lowest amount of a component to be measured in a sample. The lower the limit of quantitation, the higher the sensitivity.
For the arformoterol tartrate inhalation solutions, especially small-format arformoterol tartrate inhalation solutions, the high sensitivity and low detection limit of the method of the invention are critical. The term "small format formulation" or "small format arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution" as used herein refers to a formulation product containing an active pharmaceutical ingredient at a concentration of from 5 μ g/ml to 15 μ g/ml. For example, a 2 ml/15 μ g format for an arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution is an exemplary small format formulation, which means that each sample is 2ml in a single dose package containing 15 μ g of arformoterol at a concentration of 7.5 μ g/ml. This specification can be administered twice daily, so that the maximum single daily intake is equivalent to 4ml, or 30 μ g.
Furthermore, in this context, the active pharmaceutical ingredient in the arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution is calculated as arformoterol. Thus, for example, when in the examples it is mentioned that a 10.8mg reference arformoterol tartrate (molecular weight 494.5) is weighed, this is in fact equivalent to a 7.5mg reference arformoterol tartrate (molecular weight 344.5)).
In some embodiments, the arformoterol tartrate solution is a small-format arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution. In some embodiments, the arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution is a small format arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution. In some embodiments, the arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution is a solution having a volume ratio of 2ml: arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution at 15 μ g format. In some embodiments, the arformoterol tartrate solution has an arformoterol concentration of from 5 μ g/ml to 15 μ g/ml. In some embodiments, the arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution has an arformoterol concentration of from 5 μ g/ml to 15 μ g/ml. In some embodiments, the arformoterol tartrate solution has an arformoterol concentration of 7.5 μ g/ml. In some embodiments, the arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution has an arformoterol concentration of 7.5 μ g/ml.
In some embodiments, the high performance liquid chromatography detection conditions comprise the use of isocratic elution.
In some embodiments, the high performance liquid chromatography detection conditions comprise high performance liquid chromatography. In some embodiments, the hplc is selected from one of: agilent 1260 II, Waters e2695, Dalanimate 3000, Shimadzu LC-2050C/2060C or any other chromatography instrument of the same type.
In some embodiments, the high performance liquid chromatography detection conditions include using a mixed solution of a phosphate solution and acetonitrile as a mobile phase. In some embodiments, the phosphate solution has a pH of 10.0 to 12.5. In some embodiments, the pH of the phosphate solution is selected from the following values: 10.0, 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4, 10.5, 10.6, 10.7, 10.8, 10.9, 11.0, 11.1, 11.2, 11.3, 11.4, 11.5, 11.6, 11.7, 11.8, 11.9, 12.0, 12.1, 12.2, 12.3, 12.4 and 12.5. In some embodiments, the phosphate solution has a pH selected from the range consisting of any two of the following values: 10.0, 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4, 10.5, 10.6, 10.7, 10.8, 10.9, 11.0, 11.1, 11.2, 11.3, 11.4, 11.5, 11.6, 11.7, 11.8, 11.9, 12.0, 12.1, 12.2, 12.3, 12.4 and 12.5. For example, the phosphate solution has a pH selected from the range consisting of a value of 11.0 and a value of 12.0, i.e., the phosphate solution has a pH of 11.0 to 12.0. The inventor has experimentally shown that the higher the pH of the mobile phase, the more beneficial the arformoterol can be separated from impurity I. Thus, in some embodiments, the phosphate solution has a pH selected from 12.0.
In some embodiments, the volume ratio (V/V) of the phosphate solution to the acetonitrile is 90/10-75/25. In some embodiments, the volume ratio (V/V) of the phosphate solution to the acetonitrile is selected from the following values: 90/10, 89/11, 88/12, 87/13, 86/14, 85/15, 84/16, 83/17, 82/18, 81/19, 80/20, 79/21, 78/22, 77/23, 76/24, and 75/25.

For example, the volume ratio (V/V) of the phosphate solution to the acetonitrile is selected from the range consisting of a value of 88/12 and a value of 80/20, i.e., the volume ratio (V/V) of the phosphate solution to the acetonitrile is 88/12 to 80/20. In some embodiments, the volume ratio (V/V) of the phosphate solution to the acetonitrile is 85/15.
In some embodiments, the phosphate solution is prepared from one or more of the following: sodium dihydrogen phosphate, disodium hydrogen phosphate, potassium dihydrogen phosphate, dipotassium hydrogen phosphate, potassium phosphate, and hydrates thereof.

Example 1 detection of diastereoisomers in Alformoterol tartrate inhalation solutions by pharmacopoeia detection of similar drugs
During a stability study of a commercially packaged arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution product, it was found that the diastereomer (impurity I) in the product had a tendency to increase (zero point-no impurity detected; 1 month-0.21% impurity I; 0.39% for 2 months; 0.48% for 3 months) over a period of time (accelerated conditions-25 ℃/60% RH). In order to carry out quality detection on the production process of the arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution product, particularly the content of impurities in a final product, particularly the product with the specification of 2ml: the detection requirements for a 15 μ g arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution product (at least to achieve a sensitivity requirement of 0.1% concentration (0.0075 μ g/ml)) were first determined for the diastereomers in the arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution using the methods described in the pharmacopoeia for the detection of similar drugs. The detection method of the diastereoisomer (impurity I) disclosed by the arformoterol tartrate bulk drug Manufacturer (MSN) is basically consistent with the detection method recorded by the analogues in the United states and European pharmacopoeias, so that the detection method of the bulk drug manufacturer is not repeatedly tested.
The purpose of this experiment was therefore to test whether similar drug detection methods, which have been documented in chinese, us and european pharmacopoeias, can be used for the detection of diastereoisomers (impurity I) in arformoterol tartrate inhalation solutions.
The test methods, conditions and reagents were as follows:
the detection method of the Chinese pharmacopoeia analogue comprises the following steps:
-HPLC method, octadecyl bonded polyvinyl alcohol chromatography column (Shodex Asahipak ODP-504E, 4.6 x 250mm, 5 μm);
mobile phase ph12.0 ± 0.1 phosphate solution: acetonitrile 88:12(v/v) isocratic elution;
-flow rate: 1.0 ml/min; column temperature: 30 ℃; detection wavelength: 225 nm; sample introduction amount: 100 mul; operating time: and (5) 35 min.
Methods for detection of usp analogs:
-HPLC method, octadecyl bonded polyvinyl alcohol chromatography column (Shodex Asahipak ODP-504D, 4.6 x 150mm, 5 μm);
mobile phase ph12.0 ± 0.1 phosphate solution: acetonitrile 88:12(v/v) isocratic elution;
-flow rate: 0.5 ml/min; column temperature: 30 ℃; detection wavelength: 225 nm; sample introduction amount: 100 mul; operating time: and (5) 35 min.
Detection solution:
a separation degree solution, namely a mixed solution with the concentration of the arformoterol being 7.5 mu g/ml and the concentration of the impurity I being 0.075 mu g/ml is taken for sample injection analysis.
The results are shown in Table 1 below
TABLE 1
Figure BDA0003668966100000171
Based on the above experiments, the current test methods for similar drugs in chinese and united states and european pharmacopeia show that the main peak of arformoterol cannot be separated from the peak of its diastereoisomer impurity at baseline, and the detection of diastereoisomers in arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution cannot be realized, and the detection requirement for small dose arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution (e.g. inhalation solution with maximum daily intake (30 μ g)) cannot be met.
Example 2 detection of diastereoisomers in Alformoterol tartrate inhalation solution by HPLC method based on octadecyl bonded ethylene bridge hybrid particles as stationary phase
In order to develop a detection method of arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution products with high sensitivity and high resolution and capable of meeting the maximum daily intake (30 mug), the experiment tests whether the HPLC method using octadecyl bonded ethylene bridge hybrid particles as chromatographic column stationary phase fillers can be used for detecting diastereoisomers (impurity I) in the arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution.
The test methods, conditions and reagents were as follows:
-HPLC method, octadecyl bonded ethylene bridged hybrid particle chromatography column (Waters XBridge Peptide BEH 300A C18, 4.6 × 150mm,3.5 μm), agilent 1260 ii (VWD detector) high performance liquid chromatograph;
mobile phase ph12.0 ± 0.1 phosphate solution: acetonitrile 85:15(v/v) isocratic elution;
-flow rate: 1.0 ml/min; column temperature: 30 ℃; detection wavelength: 225 nm; sample injection amount: 100 mul; the running time was 20 min.
Samples of the solution to be tested, arformoterol tartrate inhalation Solution (SUNOVION), in accelerated conditions for 3 months, in three batches (batch number: S20C005, S20G005 and S20G008), the contents of which are taken out and mixed uniformly to prepare the solution to be tested.
And respectively taking a blank solution, a sensitivity solution, a separation degree solution, a reference substance solution and each solution to be detected, carrying out sample injection analysis, and recording a chromatogram. The injection process is as follows: (1) blank solution (the sampling times are more than or equal to 1 needle), (2) sensitivity solution (the sampling times are 1 needle), (3) resolution solution (the sampling times are 1 needle), (4) contrast solution (the sampling times are 6 needles), (5) test solution (namely arformoterol tartrate solution to be tested; the sampling times are more than or equal to 1 needle; one needle is needed to be added when the test solution enters 6 needles, and (6) follow-up contrast solution (the sampling times are more than or equal to 1 needle).
Subsequently, the content of the impurity I in the test solution was calculated by peak area according to an external standard method (external standard one-point method, see the 2020 edition of the general rules 0512 of chinese pharmacopoeia).
Fig. 3 shows a chromatogram for detecting the diastereoisomers of a solution to be tested (arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution) using the method of the invention.
The results of detecting impurity I in the three test solutions are shown in Table 2.
TABLE 2 diastereomer content of arformoterol tartrate in inhalation solution
Figure BDA0003668966100000181
As can be seen from fig. 3, the HPLC method using octadecyl bonded ethylene bridge hybrid particles as the chromatographic column stationary phase filler does not interfere with the quantitative detection of impurity I due to the excellent separation degree between arformoterol and impurity I even if a new unknown peak appears between arformoterol and impurity I; as can be seen from the results in table 2, this method can be accurately used for the detection of the diastereomer (impurity I) in the arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution.

According to the results, the chromatographic column using the octadecyl bonding ethylene bridge hybrid particles as the stationary phase can realize effective separation of the arformoterol and the impurity I within the sample amount range of 20-100 mul. In contrast, for the detection method using an octadecylsilane bonded phase chromatographic column and an octadecylsilane bonded polyvinyl alcohol chromatographic column, effective separation of arformoterol and impurity I cannot be realized in the same sample amount range of 20 μ l or 50 μ l; moreover, when the sample volume (100 μ l) is increased, the separation of arformoterol from impurity I still cannot be achieved, and the requirements of the detection on the degree of separation and sensitivity cannot be satisfied. This result shows that the method of the present invention (a chromatographic column using octadecyl bonded ethylene bridge hybrid particles as the stationary phase (Waters XBridge Peptide BEH 300A C18, 4.6 × 150mm,3.5 μm)) has the advantages of high sensitivity and good resolution under the same sample size. In contrast, for the detection method using an octadecylsilane bonded phase column and an octadecylsilyl polyvinyl alcohol column, detection of diastereomer in arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution (2 ml: 15. mu.g) could not be achieved under substantially the same measurement conditions.
