Opfindelsen angår de i patentkravene karakteriserede genstande.The invention relates to the objects characterized in the claims.
Undersøgelsen af organer med ultralyd (sonografi) er en gennem 5 nogle år godt indført og praktiseret diagnostisk metode. . Ultralydsbølger i megahertz-området (over 2 megahertz med bølgelængder mellem 1 og 0,2 mm) reflekteres*ved grænseflader af forskellige vævsarter. De derved opståede ekkoer forstærkes og gøres synlige. Af særlig betydning er her undersø-jO gelsen af hjertet med denne metode, som kaldes ekkokardiogra-fi (Haft, J.I. et al.: Clinical echocardiography, Futura,The examination of organs with ultrasound (sonography) is a well established and practiced diagnostic method for 5 years. . Ultrasonic waves in the megahertz range (over 2 megahertz with wavelengths between 1 and 0.2 mm) are reflected * at interfaces of different tissue types. The resulting echoes are amplified and made visible. Of particular importance here is the examination of the heart by this method, which is called echocardiography (Haft, J.I. et al: Clinical Echocardiography, Futura,

Lange: Echokardiographie, Hoechst AG, 1983).Mount Kisco, New York 1978, Kohler, E. Clinical Echocardiography, Enke, Stuttgart 1979, Stefan, G. et al: Echocar Diography, Thieme, Stuttgart-New York 1981, G. Biamino, 15 L. Lange: Echocardiography, Hoechst AG, 1983).
Da væsker - også blod - kun giver ultralydskontrast, når der består forskelle i massefylde i forhold til omgivelserne, blev der søgt efter muligheder for at gøre blodet og dets 20 strømning synligt for en ultralydsundersøgelse, hvad der også er muligt ved tilsætning af fine gasbobler.Since fluids - including blood - only provide ultrasound contrast when there are differences in density relative to the surroundings, opportunities were made to make the blood and its flow visible for an ultrasound examination, which is also possible by the addition of fine gas bubbles.
Fra litteraturen kendes flere metoder til fremstilling og stabilisering af gasbobler. De lader sig f.eks. frembringe 25 ved kraftig omrystning eller omrøring af opløsninger som saltopløsninger, farvestofopløsninger eller fra i forvejen udtaget blod før injektionen i blodstrømmen.From the literature, several methods for producing and stabilizing gas bubbles are known. For example, they can be produce 25 by vigorously shaking or stirring solutions such as saline, dye solutions, or pre-drawn blood prior to injection into the blood stream.
Selvom man derved opnår en ultralydskontrastgivning, er disse 30 metoder forbundet med tungtvejende ulemper, der ytrer sig ved dårlig reproducerbarhed, stærkt svingende størrelse af gasboblerne og - p.g.a. en del synlige store bobler - en vis risiko for blodprop. Disse ulemper blev delvist afhjulpet gennem andre fremgangsmåder til fremstillingen, som f.eks.Thus, while achieving ultrasound contrast rendering, these 30 methods are associated with weighty drawbacks that manifest themselves with poor reproducibility, strongly fluctuating size of the gas bubbles, and - p.g.a. some visible large bubbles - some risk of blood clots. These disadvantages were partially overcome by other methods of preparation, such as e.g.

2 ved muligheden for at kunne fremstille gasbobler med reproducerbar størrelse står over for ulempen ved de betydelige tekniske omkostninger.2 on the possibility of producing gas bubbles of reproducible size face the disadvantage of the significant technical costs.
5 I US patentskrift nr. 4.276.885 beskrives fremstillingen af gasbobler med defineret størrelse, der før sammenflydningen er blevet omgivet med en beskyttende gelatinekappe. Opbevaringen af de færdige bobler kan kun foregå i "indfrosset" tilstand, f.eks. ved opbevaring ved køleskabstemperatur, hvor-10 ved de til anvendelsen atter må bringes op på krops temperatur.5 US Patent No. 4,276,885 describes the preparation of defined size gas bubbles which, prior to confluence, have been surrounded with a protective gelatin sheath. The finished bubbles can only be stored in the "frozen" state, e.g. when stored at refrigerator temperature, whereupon they must be brought back to body temperature for use.
I US patentskrift nr. 4.265.251 bliver fremstillingen og anr vendeisen af gasbobler med fast saccharidkappe, der kan være 25 fyldt med en under tryk stående gas, beskrevet. Står de under normaltryk, kan de anvendes som ultralydskontrastmiddel; ved anvendelse med forhøjet indre tryk tjener de til blodtryksmåling.U.S. Patent No. 4,265,251 describes the manufacture and use of solid saccharide sheath gas bubbles, which may be filled with pressurized gas. If under normal pressure, they can be used as an ultrasonic contrast agent; when used at elevated internal pressure, they serve for blood pressure measurement.
20 Selvom opbevaringen af de faste gasbobler herved ikke udgør noget problem, er det tekniske opbud ved fremstillingen en væsentlig omkostningsfaktor.20 Although the storage of the solid gas bubbles does not present a problem, the technical procurement in the manufacture is a significant cost factor.
Risici'ene ved de på teknikkens stade til rådighed stående 25 kontrastmidler fremkaldes af to faktorer: størrelse og antal af såvel faststofpartiklerne som af gasboblerne.The risks of the 25 contrast agents available at the state of the art are caused by two factors: the size and number of both the solid particles and the gas bubbles.
Det hidtil skildrede stade af teknikken tillader fremstilling af ultralydskontrastmidler, der altid kun besidder nogle 30 af de krævede egenskaber: 1) Udelukkelse af blodpropsrisiko - gasbobler (størrelse og antal) - faststofpartikler (størrelse og antal) 35 2) Reproducerbarh’ed 3) Tilstrækkelig lang stabilitetThe state of the art so far depicted allows the production of ultrasound contrast agents which always possess only some of the required 30 properties: 1) Exclusion of blood clot risk - gas bubbles (size and number) - solid particles (size and number) 35 2) reproducibility 3) Sufficient long stability

I den europæiske patentansøgning med offentliggørelsesnummer 52575 beskrives ganske vist fremstilling af gasbobler, der 15 skulle besidde disse nødvendige egenskaber. Til fremstillingen af disse gasbobler suspenderes mikropartikler af et fast krystallinsk stof, som f.eks. galaktose, i en bærervæske, hvorved gassen, der er adsorberet til partikeloverfladen eller er indelukket i hulrum mellem partiklerne eller i interkrystal-20 linske hulrum, danner gasboblerne. Den således dannede suspension af gasbobler og mikropartikler injiceres inden for 10 min. Selvom der i det europæiske patentskrift nr. 52575 hævdes, at den efter den beskrevne metode fremstillede suspension er egnet til, efter injektion i en perifer vene, såvel 25 på den højre side af hjertet som efter passage af lungen i den venstre side af hjertet, at komme til syne og dér gør blodet og dets strømning synlig ved ultralysundersøgelse, så holder denne påstand ikke stand over for en efterprøvning.The European patent application with publication number 52575 discloses the production of gas bubbles which should possess these necessary properties. For the preparation of these gas bubbles, microparticles are suspended from a solid crystalline substance, e.g. galactose, in a carrier liquid, whereby the gas adsorbed to the particle surface or enclosed in voids between the particles or in intercrystalline voids forms the gas bubbles. The suspension of gas bubbles and microparticles thus formed is injected within 10 minutes. Although in European Patent No. 52575 it is claimed that the suspension prepared by the method described is suitable for, after injection into a peripheral vein, both on the right side of the heart and after passage of the lung into the left side of the heart, to appear and where the blood and its flow are made visible by ultrasound examination, this claim does not withstand a test.
Der blev således fastslået, at det efter den i den europæiske 30 ansøgning nr. 52575 beskrevne metode fremstillede og i en perifer vene injicerede kontrastmiddel, ikke frembragte ultralydsekkoer i venstre side af hjertet.Thus, it was determined that, according to the method described in European Application No. 52575, contrast agent injected into a peripheral vein did not produce ultrasound echoes in the left side of the heart.
Opgaven for den foreliggende opfindelse var at stille et kon-35 trastmiddel til ultralydsdiagnostik til disposition, der er i stand til, efter intravenøs indføring, at gøre blodet og dets strømningsforhold synlige for ultralyd, ikke kun på den højre side af hjertet, men også efter passagen af lungensThe object of the present invention was to provide an ultrasound diagnostic contrast agent capable of, after intravenous insertion, making the blood and its flow conditions visible to ultrasound not only on the right side of the heart but also after the passage of the lung

Derudover skal 5 det også gøre det muligt at vise gennemblødning af andre organer, såsom myocardiet, leveren, milten og nyrerne.4 capillary layers on the left side of the heart. In addition, it should also allow bleeding of other organs, such as the myocardium, liver, spleen, and kidneys.
0 hidtil ukendte midler ifølge opfindelsen, og ifølge kravene 1-10, besidder alle de egenskaber, der forventes af et sådant 10 kontrastmiddel, og som er optalt på side 2-3.0 novel agents according to the invention, and according to claims 1-10, possess all the properties expected of such a contrast agent and listed on pages 2-3.
Det blev overraskende fastslået, at ved at suspendere mikro-partikler af et fast grænsefladeaktivt stof, eventuelt i kombination med mikropartikler af et ikke-grænsefladeaktivt fast 15 stof i en bærervæske, opnås et ultralydskontrastmiddel, der efter injektion i en perifer vene også muliggør reproducerbare ultralydsoptagelser af blod i den arterielle venstre side af hjertet. Da den venstre side af hjertet kan nås med ultralydskontrastmidlet ifølge opfindelsen efter intravenøs 20 indføring, så er også ultralydskontraster af andre fra aorta og med blodet forsynede organer mulig efter intravenøs indføring, såsom i myocardiet, leveren, milten, nyrerne m.fl. Det forstås, at ultralydskontrastmidlet ifølge opfindelsen også er egnet til kontraster i højre side af hjertet og til alle 25 sædvanlige anvendelser som ultralydskontrastmiddel.Surprisingly, it was found that by suspending micro particles of a solid interface active substance, optionally in combination with microparticles of a non-interface active solid in a carrier liquid, an ultrasonic contrast agent is obtained which, after injection into a peripheral vein, also allows reproducible ultrasound recordings. of blood in the arterial left side of the heart. Since the left side of the heart can be reached with the ultrasound contrast agent of the invention after intravenous insertion, ultrasound contrasts of other aortic and blood supply organs are also possible after intravenous insertion, such as in the myocardium, liver, spleen, kidneys, etc. It is understood that the ultrasound contrast agent of the invention is also suitable for contrasts in the right side of the heart and for all conventional uses as ultrasound contrast agent.
Opfindelsen angår således et mikropartikel- og gasbobleholdigt kontrastmiddel til ultralydsdiagnostik, hvilket middel er ejendommeligt ved, at det indeholder mikropartikler af et fast 30 grænsefladeaktivt stof valgt blandt C4-C20“fedtsyrer eller saccharoseestere eller ascorbylestere heraf eller metalsalte heraf i en koncentration fra 0,01 til 5 vægt%, eventuelt i kombination med mikropartikler af et ikke-grænsefladeaktivt fast stof valgt blandt cyclodextriner, monosaccharider eller 35 disaccharider, fortrinsvis galactose, lactose eller α-cyclo- dextriner, i en koncentration fra 5 til 50 vægt%, fortrinsvis 9 til 40 vægt%, i en flydende bærer.Thus, the invention relates to a microparticle and gas bubble containing contrast agent for ultrasound diagnostics, which is characterized in that it contains microparticles of a solid interface active agent selected from C4-C20 fatty acids or sucrose esters or ascorbic esters thereof or a concentration of 0.01 to 5% by weight, optionally in combination with microparticles of a non-interface active solid selected from cyclodextrins, monosaccharides or disaccharides, preferably galactose, lactose or α-cyclodextrins, at a concentration of 5 to 50% by weight, preferably 9 to 40% by weight, in a liquid carrier.

Som ovenfor nævnt anvendes som grænsefladeaktivt stof C4-C20· fedtsyrer eller saccharoseestere eller ascorbylestere heraf eller metalsalte heraf. Disse er alle i de anvendte mængder fysiologisk forligelige, dvs. besidder en ringe toxicitet og-5 /eller er biologisk nedbrydelige, og har et smeltepunkt højere end stuetemperatur. Som eksempler kan nævnes saccharosedipal-mitat, saccharosemonolaurat, ascorbylpalmitat, calciumstearat, saccharoseesteren af laurinsyre, stearinsyre og palmitinsyre. Særligt foretrukne er magnesiumstearat, ascorbylpalmitat, sac-10 charosemonopalmitat, saccharosemonostearat eller saccharosedi-stearat.As mentioned above, C4-C20 · fatty acids or sucrose esters or their ascorbyl esters or metal salts thereof are used as the C4-C20 interface. These are all in the quantities used physiologically compatible, ie. possess a low toxicity and -5 / or are biodegradable, and have a melting point higher than room temperature. Examples include sucrose dipalmate, sucrose monolaurate, ascorbyl palmitate, calcium stearate, sucrose ester of lauric acid, stearic acid and palmitic acid. Particularly preferred are magnesium stearate, ascorbyl palmitate, sucrose monopalmitate, sucrose monostearate or sucrose distearate.
Det grænsefladeaktive stof anvendes i en koncentration fra 0,01 til 5 vægt%, fortrinsvis fra 0,04 til 0,5 vægt%.The interface active substance is used at a concentration of 0.01 to 5% by weight, preferably 0.04 to 0.5% by weight.

Om ønsket kan mikropartiklerne af det grænsefladeaktive stof kombineres med mikropartikler af et fysiologisk forligeligt krystallinsk fast stof. Der kan dertil anvendes monosacchari-der som glucose, fructose eller galactose, disaccharider som 20 saccharose, lactose eller maltose, eller cyclodextriner som a-, β- eller γ-cyclodextrin, hvor galactose, lactose og α-cyclo-dextrin er de foretrukne. De er til stede i en koncentration fra 5 til 50 vægt%, fortrinsvis fra 9 til 40 vægt% i midlerne ifølge opfindelsen.If desired, the microparticles of the surfactant can be combined with microparticles of a physiologically compatible crystalline solid. Monosaccharides such as glucose, fructose or galactose, disaccharides such as sucrose, lactose or maltose, or cyclodextrins such as α-, β- or γ-cyclodextrin, where galactose, lactose and α-cyclodextrin are preferred, may be used. They are present at a concentration of from 5 to 50% by weight, preferably from 9 to 40% by weight, in the compositions of the invention.

Til fremstilling af mikropartiklerne rekrystalliseres de dertil beregnede stoffer under sterile betingelser. Derefter findeles de under sterile betingelser, f.eks. ved formaling i en luft-strålemølle, indtil den ønskede partikelstørrelse er nået.For the preparation of the microparticles, the calculated substances are recrystallized under sterile conditions. They are then comminuted under sterile conditions, e.g. by milling in an air-jet mill until the desired particle size is reached.
30 Der opnås en partikelstørrelse på < 1 - 50 pm, fortrinsvis 1 - 10 pm. Partikelstørrelsen bestemmes med egnede måleinstrumenter. De fremstillede mikropartikler består enten af det findelte grænsefladeaktive stof alene eller af en blanding af mikropartiklerne af det grænsefladeaktive stof og ikke-35 grænsefladeaktivt fast stof. I så tilfælde andrager vægtforholdet mellem fast grænsefladeaktivt stof og ikke-grænsefladeaktivt fast stof 0,02-100:100.A particle size of <1 - 50 µm, preferably 1 - 10 µm, is obtained. The particle size is determined by suitable measuring instruments. The microparticles produced either consist of the finely divided interface active substance alone or of a mixture of the microparticles of the interface active substance and non-interface active solid. In this case, the weight ratio of solid interface active substance to non-interface active solid is 0.02-100: 100.

6 Såvel den ved findelingsfremgangsmåden opnåede størrelse af mikropartiklerne, som også størrelsen af de i kontrastmidlet ifølge opfindelsen indeholdte gasbobler, sikrer en ufar- lig passage af kapillarsysternet og af 1ungekapillarlaget og 5 udelukker dannelsen af blodpropper.6 Both the size of the microparticles obtained by the comminution process, as well as the size of the gas bubbles contained in the contrast agent of the invention, ensure a harmless passage of the capillary system and of the kidney capillary layer and 5 precludes the formation of blood clots.

De for kontrastgivningen påkrævede gasbobler transporteres delvist gennem de suspenderede mikropartikler, absorberes til mikropartiklernes overflade og lukkes inde i hulrummene mellem mikropartiklerne eller interkrystallinsk.The gas bubbles required for contrasting are partially transported through the suspended microparticles, absorbed to the surface of the microparticles and enclosed within the voids between the microparticles or intercrystalline.
Det af mikropartiklerne transporterede gasvolumen i form af gasbobler andrager 0,02 til 0,6 ml per gram mikropartikler.The volume of gas transported by the microparticles in the form of gas bubbles is 0.02 to 0.6 ml per gram of microparticles.
15 Bærervæsken har ved siden af transportfunktionen til opgave at stabilisere den af mikropartikler og gasbobler bestående suspension, f.eks. forhindre sedimentationen af mikropartik-ler og sammenflydningen af gasbobler og forsinke mikropartik-2Q lernes opløsningsforløb.In addition to the transport function, the carrier liquid has the task of stabilizing the suspension of microparticles and gas bubbles, e.g. prevent the sedimentation of microparticles and the confluence of gas bubbles and delay the dissolution process of the microparticles 2Q.

Opfihdelsen angår også en fremgangsmåde til fremstilling af 5 midlet, hvilken fremgangsmåde er ejendommelig ved, at man forener mikropartikler af et fysiologisk forligeligt fast grænsefladeaktivt stof valgt blandt C^-^o-fedtsVrer eller saccharose- eller ascorbylestere heraf eller metalsalte heraf, eventuelt i kombination med mikropartikler af et fysiologisk for-10 ligeligt ikke-grænsefladeaktivt fast stof valgt blandt cyclo-dextriner, monosaccharider eller disaccharider, fortrinsvis galactose, lactose eller α-cyclodextrin, med en sådan mængde af en fysiologisk forligelig bærervæske, at koncentrationen af mikropartiklerne af det grænsefladeaktive stof bliver 0,01-5 15 vægt% regnet på midlets samlede vægt, og ryster, indtil der opstår en homogen suspension.The invention also relates to a process for the preparation of the agent which is characterized by combining microparticles of a physiologically compatible solid surfactant selected from C blandt ^ ^ fatty acids or their sucrose or ascorbyl esters or metal salts thereof, optionally in combination. with microparticles of a physiologically compatible non-surfactant solid selected from cyclodextrins, monosaccharides or disaccharides, preferably galactose, lactose or α-cyclodextrin, with such an amount of a physiologically compatible carrier liquid that the concentration of the microparticulate substance is 0.01-5 to 15% by weight based on the total weight of the agent and shakes until a homogeneous suspension occurs.
Til fremstilling af et ultralydskontrastmiddel, der er færdigt til brug, sættes den sterile bærervæske til det i form af mikropartikler foreliggende sterile faste grænsefladeakti- 20 ve stof, som eventuelt er kombineret med et sterilt ikke-grænsef ladeaktivt stof, og denne blanding rystes, indtil der har dannet sig en homogen suspension, hvilket kræver ca. 5-10 sekunder. Den dannede suspension bliver umiddelbart efter dens fremstilling og senest efter 5 min. injiceret i en peri- 2 5 fer vene eller i et allerede forhåndenværende kateter som en samlet mængde, hvor der injiceres fra 0,01 til 1 ml/kg legemsvægt.To prepare a ready-to-use ultrasonic contrast agent, the sterile carrier liquid is added to the sterile solid interface active substance, optionally combined with a sterile non-interfacial agent, and this mixture is shaken until a homogeneous suspension has formed, which requires approx. 5-10 seconds. The suspension formed immediately after its preparation and at the latest after 5 minutes. injected into a peripheral vein or into an already existing catheter as a total amount injecting from 0.01 to 1 ml / kg body weight.
Af hensigtsmæssighedsgrunde opbevares de til fremstillingen af midlet ifølge opfindelsen nødvendige komponenter som bærer-30 væske (A) og mikropartikler af et grænsefladeaktivt stof, eventuelt kombineret med mikropartikler af et ikke-grænse-fladeaktivt fast stof (B) sterilt i en for en undersøgelse nødvendig mængde i to adskilte beholdere. Begge beholdere har lukninger som muliggør udtagning og tilsætning ved hjælp 3 5 af en injektionssprøjte under sterile betingelser (små medicinflasker). Størrelsen af beholder B må være således beskaffen, at indholdet af beholder A ved hjælp af en injektionssprøjte kan overføres til B og de forenede komponenter kan omrystes.

Gennemførelsen af en ekkokardiografisk undersøgelse på en 10 kg tung bavian skal demonstrere anvendelsen af kontrastmidlet ifølge opfindelsen: å 5 5 ml bærervæske (fremstillet efter eks- 1A) -udtages fra en lille medicinflaske med en injektionssprøjte og sættes til 2 gram mikropartikler (fremstillet efter eks*. IB), som befinder sig i en anden medicinflaske og rystes ca. 5-10 sekunder, indtil der dannes en homogen suspension. Der injiceres 2 ml 10 af denne suspension i en perifer vene (V. jugularis, brachia-lis eller saphena) over en 3-vejshane med en infusionshastighed på mindst 1 ml per sekund, og hellere 2-3 ml per sekund.The conduct of an echocardiographic examination on a 10 kg heavy baboon should demonstrate the use of the contrast agent of the invention: å 5 ml of carrier fluid (prepared according to Example 1A) is withdrawn from a small vial with a syringe and added to 2 grams of microparticles (prepared after EX IB), which is in another medicine bottle and is shaken for approx. 5-10 seconds until a homogeneous suspension is formed. 2 ml of this suspension is injected into a peripheral vein (V. jugularis, brachialis or saphena) over a 3-way cock with an infusion rate of at least 1 ml per second, and more preferably 2-3 ml per second.
Straks efter kontrastmiddelinjektionen følger med samme hastig-j5 hed en injektion af 10 ml fysiologisk kogsaltsopløsning, således at kontrastmiddelmængden i så stor udstrækning som muligt bibeholdes samlet, indtil den når den højre side af hjertet. Før, under og efter injektionen holdes et gængs lydhoved til ekko-kardiografi mod forsøgsdyrets brystkasse, således at der fås 2Q et typisk tværsnit gennem den højre og venstre side af hjertet. Dette forsøgsarrangement svarer til teknikkens stade og er kendt for fagmanden.Immediately after the contrast agent injection, an injection of 10 ml of physiological saline solution is followed at the same rate, so that the amount of contrast agent is maintained as much as possible until it reaches the right side of the heart. Before, during and after the injection, a conventional echo-cardiography head is held against the test animal's chest, so that a typical cross-sectional 2Q is obtained through the right and left sides of the heart. This experimental arrangement corresponds to the state of the art and is known to those skilled in the art.
Når ultralydskontrastmidlet når den højre side af hjertet, 25 kan man på 2-D-ekkobilledet eller på M-mode-ekkobilledet følge, hvordan det med kontrastmidlet markerede blod først når toppunktet for det højre hjerteforkammer, derefter for den højre ventrikel og for pulmonalarterien, hvorved der i ca.When the ultrasound contrast agent reaches the right side of the heart, on the 2-D echo image or on the M-mode echo image, it is possible to follow how the blood marked with the contrast agent first reaches the apex of the right ventricle, then of the right ventricle and of the pulmonary artery, whereby for approx.
10 sekunder optræder en homogen fyldning. Medens hulerne i 30 højre side af hjertet atter tømmes, viser det med kontrastmiddel markerede blod sig atter efter passagen af lungen i pulmonalvenerne, fylder homogent venstre forkammer, den venstre ventrikel og aorta, hvorved kontrasten fastholdes 2 til 3 gange længere end i højre side af hjertet.
