Description

Excipient in drug delivery vehicle
The cross reference of related application
The application requires the U.S. Provisional Application No.60/519 submitted on November 14th, 2003, the U.S. Patent application No.10/. that on November 10th, 972 and 2004 submits to ... ... interests, be referenced herein by reference.
Invention field
The present invention relates generally to depot compositions and the test kit of sustained release, they provide the sustained release of beneficiating ingredient.The present invention also relates to prepare and give the method for described compositions.
Background of invention
Biodegradable polymer is used for many years in medical applications.The device example be comprised of Biodegradable polymer comprises stitching thread, surgery folder, medical nail, implant and drug delivery system.These Biodegradable polymers of great majority are based on Acetic acid, hydroxy-, bimol. cyclic ester, lactide, caprolactone and copolymer thereof.
Injectable implant adopts and dissolves in very much or relatively solvent/the plasticizer of aqueous body fluid with the Biodegradable polymer preparation, to promote polymer, at the rapid of implant site, solidifies, and promotes that medicine spreads from implant.When implant is placed in body neutralization and is exposed to aqueous body fluid, it is a serious problem that water adopts the polymeric implants of water-soluble solvent to divide a word with a hyphen at the end of a line rapidly to this class.Moisture picked-up rapidly often causes implant to have the inhomogeneous loose structure of size and shape.Usually, surperficial aperture presents finger sample pore structure, extends in from implant surface to implant and reaches 1/3rd millimeters or more, and this class finger sample hole makes implant surface open to environment for use.It is less that inner aperture is tending towards, and the fluid be present in environment for use is not accessible.Moisture picked-up feature often causes the release of beneficiating ingredient out of control rapidly, shows as the initial rapidly release of beneficiating ingredient from polymer formulations, " prominent the releasing " of the beneficiating ingredient that is equivalent to discharge from implant.The prominent major part that often causes beneficiating ingredient, if not all released discharges, for example a few hours or 1-2 days within the very short time.A kind of like this effect may be unacceptable, particularly at needs, control in those environment of sending, beneficiating ingredient sending in a controlled manner namely, last two weeks above or reach one month or even reach 1 year, perhaps existing therein narrow treatment window and excessive beneficiating ingredient to discharge may cause in those environment of adverse consequences the curee, or be necessary therein to simulate beneficiating ingredient, such as hormone etc. in curee's body abiogenous every day curve those environment in.
Therefore, when implanting this class device, finger sample hole allows very fast aqueous body fluid picked-up to enter implant inside, and the significant quantity beneficiating ingredient dissolves immediately and rapidly subsequently, and the without hindrance environment for use that diffuses into of beneficiating ingredient, produce burst effect as discussed above.
In addition, moisture picked-up rapidly may cause too early polymer precipitation, so that produces the implant of sclerosis or have the implant of sclerosis crust.The inner aperture that contains beneficiating ingredient is cut off with body fluid and contacts with a lot of inner spaces, may be not in the inapparent time (" lag time ") cause the release of beneficiating ingredient significantly to reduce.From the viewpoint of the controlled, sustained release of beneficiating ingredient is provided to the curee, be unwanted this lag time.Then viewed is prominent the releasing that beneficiating ingredient discharges at short notice soon after implantation, wherein do not have or beneficiating ingredient d/d lag time seldom, subsequently beneficiating ingredient continue send (the supposition beneficiating ingredient also has and remains after prominent releasing), until the supply of beneficiating ingredient exhausts.
Various control beneficiating ingredients are prominent to be released and regulates and controls to send and the existing description of the method that makes its stabilisation.Following patent United States Patent(USP) Nos. 6,468,961; 6,331,311; 6,130,200; 5,990,194; 5,780,044; 5,733,950; 5,656,297; 5,654,010; 4,985,404 and 4,853,218 and PCT communique WO 98/27962 it is believed that be the representative, be referenced herein by reference.Although obtain certain success, but these methods are still not exclusively satisfactory with regard to the beneficiating ingredient of in a large number implanted thing effectively being sent.
The impact that the initial burst release of medicine and release rate profile can be subject to several factors, for example the water miscibilty of the molecular weight of the ratio of polymer and solvent, polymer, solvent and the character of drug particle.But, reach required rate of release and may be subject in some cases the rotten inhibition of beneficiating ingredient.In addition, when polymeric matrices is caught beneficiating ingredient, the be released in polymeric matrix of beneficiating ingredient from polymeric matrix inside starts before significantly degraded may be mainly what to spread-to control, cause it may is not desirable release rate profile.
The problem of using some Biodegradable polymers to face in drug delivery system is the degraded of polymer, causes for example accumulation of sour by-product in delivery system.The environment that gained contains polymer degradation products may damage beneficiating ingredient, for example protein, peptide and small-molecule drug.
Using another problem that some implantable systems face is the existence from free radical and/or the peroxide of body fluid.The normal foreign body reaction of for example implantable drug delivery system is also caused to the generation of free radical and peroxide.Therefore, free radical and peroxide may diffuse into implanted drug delivery system, and beneficiating ingredient is harmful to.
As a result, beneficiating ingredient is subject to the impact of some factors apt to deteriorate, reduces thus the general validity of dosage form, because the beneficiating ingredient of not all wanting can be for curee's treatment.
Still be starved of such drug delivery system, they can make to be exposed to due to the existence of depolymerization and/or unwanted free radical or peroxide the beneficiating ingredient stabilisation of harmful microenvironment.In addition, still need to regulate and control the release of beneficiating ingredient from drug delivery system, to reach required rate of release.

Describe in detail
Have been found that in some system, can make beneficiating ingredient stabilisation and their release of regulation and control of Injectable depot compositions under the existence of excipient.
Compositions of the present invention is used excipient to offset effect and the regulation and control release profiles of depolymerization.Although applicable excipient has a lot, but example comprises pH modifier and antioxidant, for example reducing agent and free radical scavenger.
PH modifier includes but not limited to inorganic and organic salt, comprises zinc carbonate, magnesium carbonate, calcium carbonate, magnesium hydroxide, calcium hydrogen phosphate, calcium acetate, calcium hydroxide, calcium lactate, calcium maleate, calcium oleate, calcium oxalate, calcium phosphate, magnesium acetate, magnesium hydrogen phosphate, magnesium phosphate, magnesium lactate, maleic acid magnesium, magnesium oleate, magnesium oxalate, zinc acetate, phosphoric acid hydrogen zinc, zinc phosphate, zinc lactate, MALEIC ACID, ZINC SALT, zinc oleate, zinc oxalate and their combination.Reducing agent includes but not limited to cysteine or methionine.Antioxidant includes but not limited to d-α tocopherol acetate, the d1-alpha tocopherol, Vitamin C acyl cetylate, butylation hydroxyl anidole, ascorbic acid, butylatedhydroxyanisole, the butylation hydroxyquinone, BHA, Hydroxycoumarin, Yoshinox BHT, cephalm, ethyl gallate, propyl gallate, the gallate monooctyl ester, the gallate lauryl, nipasol, trihydroxy butyl rophenone, xylenol, DI-tert-butylphenol compounds, vitamin E, lecithin and ethanolamine.
The present invention for compositions comprise those that mix excipient; inorganic salt for example; for example magnesium carbonate or zinc carbonate; their local pH in can (1) balance depot formulations; avoid the impact of after depolymerization, hanging down pH with the protection beneficiating ingredient, and (2) regulate and control release rate profile by dynamic creation microcellular structure in polymer.Due to the alkalescence of more selected inorganic salts, can the local acid pH of balance in bank microenvironment due to depolymerization.Therefore can protect beneficiating ingredient, especially protein, peptide and medicine are avoided the adverse effect of low pH.In addition, do not plan to be subject to theoretical institute to limit, think that the white space that former cause salt occupies is by the dynamic creation microcellular structure when the particle of excipient, for example inorganic salt leaves polymeric matrices because dissolving in water.The size of aperture and density may be subject to the control of raw material and loading level.Thereby required release profiles can be programmable.
And then a lot of small-molecule drugs exist with multi-form, this depends on the pH of the environment that medicine exposes.For example, small-molecule drug can possess positive charge under low pH, under higher pH, possesses negative charge, under middle pH, there is no electric charge.Therefore, by changing local pH, can easily determine hydrophilic-hydrophobic matter and the dissolubility of medicine in substrate of medicine.Thereby, can regulate and control the initial burst of beneficiating ingredient from bank and discharge and release rate profile.The release rate profile of known activity composition from bank can highly depend on the hydrophilic-hydrophobic matter of medicine.Because the hydrophilic-hydrophobic matter of medicine can easily depend on its chemical species and depend under many circumstances local pH, method of the present invention may not need to add the dissolubility of any other preparation raw material with regulating medicine in the drug particle preparation, thereby makes pharmaceutical preparation simpler.
For example, and then a lot of small-molecule drugs contain when peroxide or free radical exist the functional group to the Oxidation sensitivity, amine, hydroxyl.When oxidized, medicine may be lost the active of them and/or cause some unwanted side effect.By mixing antioxidant; such as but not limited to reducing agent or free radical scavenger; can protect the integrity of medicine to avoid the two attack of peroxide or free radical or this, they diffuse into gel vehicle from body fluid, or are produced by the normal foreign body reaction institute to implant.In addition, do not plan to be subject to theoretical institute to limit, think that the white space that former cause excipient occupies is by the dynamic creation microcellular structure when the dispersant liquid drop of the particle of excipient, for example solid reductant, antioxidant and free radical scavenger or excipient, for example solid reductant, antioxidant and free radical scavenger leaves polymeric matrices because of diffusion.The size of aperture and density may be subject to the control of raw material and loading level.Thereby required release profiles can be programmable.
Bioactive ingredients, such as protein, peptide, monoclonal antibody etc., when peroxide or free radical exist, to Oxidation, be generally responsive.When oxidized, bioactive ingredients may be lost the active of them and/or cause some unwanted side effect, for example immunoreation.By mixing reducing agent, antioxidant or free radical scavenger; can protect the integrity of composition to avoid the attack of peroxide and/or free radical; they diffuse into gel vehicle from body fluid, or are produced by the normal foreign body reaction to implant.In addition, do not plan to be subject to theoretical institute to limit, think that the white space that former cause excipient occupies is by the dynamic creation microcellular structure when the dispersant liquid drop of the particle of excipient, for example solid reductant, antioxidant and free radical scavenger or excipient, for example solid reductant, antioxidant and free radical scavenger leaves polymeric matrices because of diffusion.The size of aperture and density may be subject to the control of raw material and loading level.Thereby required release profiles can be programmable.
Compositions according to the present invention is mixed excipient, for example antioxidant, reducing agent and/or free radical scavenger, their free radical and peroxide that for example targeting diffuses into gel vehicle or produced by the normal foreign body reaction to implant from body fluid.
For example can carry out like this to mixing excipient in gel vehicle, directly mix or the premixing excipient in drug particle during the drug particle formulated.On the other hand, can in gel vehicle, load separately excipient and medicine.Excipient as the beneficiating ingredient, can dissolve or be dispersed in gel vehicle.
