Description

Tacrolimus sustained release preparation and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of pharmaceutical preparations, in particular to a tacrolimus sustained-release preparation and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Tacrolimus is first extracted from broth fermentation of Streptococcus tsukubaensis in 1984 by Japanese Tenzea pharmaceutical company, and is a three-pillar product for resisting graft immune rejection at home and abroad in parallel with cyclosporin and mycophenolate mofetil. Tacrolimus was approved by the FDA in 1995 for sale in the United states and entered the China market in 1998. Tacrolimus and cyclosporin A are both calcium neuraminidase inhibitors, have similar and wider immunosuppressive effects as cyclosporin A, and mainly achieve the effect of comprehensively inhibiting T lymphocytes by inhibiting interleukin-2 (L-2) release, wherein the efficacy is 10-100 times higher than that of cyclosporin A, and adverse reactions are fewer. Tacrolimus is widely applied to transplantation of solid organs such as liver, pancreas, kidney, heart, lung and the like at present, has become a first-line medicament for an organ transplantation immunosuppression therapy, plays a positive role in treating autoimmune diseases such as Atopic Dermatitis (AD), systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE), autoimmune eye diseases and the like, and has higher clinical application value.
However, tacrolimus has a Narrow Therapeutic Index (NTI) and its blood concentration must be maintained within a certain level, too high a concentration increases the risk of toxic reactions, while insufficient concentrations increase rejection reactions. The tacrolimus sustained-release preparation can lead the blood concentration of tacrolimus to be stable, can reduce the CV of blood concentration, reduce the administration times and has higher clinical administration advantages. However, the prescription and the production process of the tacrolimus sustained-release preparation have higher difficulty, and the difficulty of the prescription and the process is as follows: (1) The solubility of tacrolimus in water is very poor (about 1.58 mu M in water at 25 ℃), and the selected auxiliary materials need to have a slow release function while solubilizing tacrolimus; (2) the preparation product is easy to have ethanol dumping; (3) The development of the solubilization slow release auxiliary materials and the main drugs can be fully combined, and the process difficulty suitable for industrialization is high. Therefore, the development of a sustained release preparation which is suitable for industrial production, can slowly release tacrolimus and does not cause ethanol dumping has very important significance.
