Description

本発明は、7−[2−(3,5−ジクロロ−4−ピリジル)−1−オキソエチル]−4−メトキシ−スピロ[1,3−ベンゾジオキソール−2,1’−シクロペンタン]またはその薬理学的に許容される塩を含有する微粒子混合物の製造方法、該製造方法によって得られる微粒子混合物、およびこれを含有する吸入用製剤等に関する。  The present invention relates to 7- [2- (3,5-dichloro-4-pyridyl) -1-oxoethyl] -4-methoxy-spiro [1,3-benzodioxole-2,1′-cyclopentane] or The present invention relates to a method for producing a fine particle mixture containing a pharmacologically acceptable salt, a fine particle mixture obtained by the production method, an inhalation preparation containing the same, and the like.

従来、7−[2−(3,5−ジクロロ−4−ピリジル)−1−オキソエチル]−4−メトキシ−スピロ[1,3−ベンゾジオキソール−2,1’−シクロペンタン]またはその薬理学的に許容される塩をホスホジエステラーゼIV阻害剤として用いることが知られている(国際公開第96/36624号パンフレット参照)。
一方、ドライパウダー吸入用製剤に含まれる有効成分は、肺や気管支等の疾患部位に到達させ吸収させるために、微細な粒子(微粒子)であることが必要とされている(インターナショナル・ジャーナル・オブ・ファーマコロジー(Int.J.Pharm.)、1994年、第101巻、1頁)。通常このような微粒子は、有効成分の粉砕によって得られる。しかし微粒子は凝集しやすい性質をもつため、微粒子を吸入用製剤に用いた場合、例えば吸入器からの十分な有効成分排出量が得られない、口腔内や上気道で有効成分が凝集してしまい肺や気管支への有効成分の到達率が低い等の問題がある。このため、吸入用製剤では、粉砕した有効成分と担体粒子を混合し、担体粒子表面に粉砕した有効成分を付着させることによってその凝集を防止し、肺や気管支等の疾患部位への有効成分の到達率を向上させる手法が知られている。しかしながら、有効成分の微粒子を担体粒子に付着させた場合、付着力が強すぎると有効成分は吸入操作中に担体粒子から分離せず、口腔、咽喉に沈着してしまい期待された薬効を発揮することができない。特に有効成分の含量が低いと、有効成分の微粒子が担体粒子から再分散されにくくなり、結果として疾患部位への有効成分の到達量が低下する等の問題が生じる。
そこで、かかる問題を解決するために、有効成分の微粒子を担体粒子に付着させた吸入用製剤であって、吸入器からの十分な有効成分排出量が得られ、かつ吸入後に有効成分が担体粒子から良好に分離する吸入用製剤について報告がされている(特表平8−501056公報、特開2001−151673号公報参照)。特表平8−501056公報では、有効成分の微粒子と、補助物質からなる吸入用製剤が報告され、特開2001−151673号公報は、有効成分と、担体粒子および補助物質からなる吸入用製剤の製造方法であって、有効成分と補助物質を混合して粉砕することにより、有効成分と補助物質の微粒子混合物を製造する工程を含む製造方法を報告している。
一方、有効成分の微粒子を製造する工程においては、該微粒子が粉砕装置に付着してしまいその損失を生じる等の問題が生じている。また、有効成分の微粒子を担体粒子に付着させる場合、有効成分の担体粒子への付着力が、有効成分の混合容器への付着力と比較して小さいと、有効成分の微粒子と担体粒子を混合する工程において、有効成分が混合容器に付着してしまいその損失を生じる等の問題が生じている。粉砕によって得られる微粒子では、粉砕していない粒子と比較して付着性、帯電性等が増大することが知られており(ファーマシューティカル・テクノロジー(Pharmaceutical Technology)、1994年、第18巻、58頁)、このことは、有効成分の微粒子を製造する際に、収率が低下する原因の1つとなっている。また、有効成分の微粒子を担体粒子に付着させた吸入用製剤を製造する際に、有効成分の担体粒子への付着率が低下し、品質が低下する原因の1つとなっている。
Conventionally, 7- [2- (3,5-dichloro-4-pyridyl) -1-oxoethyl] -4-methoxy-spiro [1,3-benzodioxole-2,1′-cyclopentane] or a drug thereof It is known to use physically acceptable salts as phosphodiesterase IV inhibitors (see WO 96/36624).
On the other hand, the active ingredient contained in the dry powder inhalation preparation is required to be fine particles (fine particles) in order to reach and absorb diseased parts such as the lungs and bronchi (International Journal of Pharmacology (Int. J. Pharm.), 1994, Vol. 101, page 1). Such fine particles are usually obtained by grinding active ingredients. However, since fine particles tend to aggregate, when the fine particles are used in an inhalation formulation, for example, the active ingredient cannot be sufficiently discharged from the inhaler, and the active ingredient aggregates in the oral cavity and upper respiratory tract. There are problems such as low reach of active ingredients to the lungs and bronchi. For this reason, in inhalation preparations, the pulverized active ingredient and carrier particles are mixed, and the pulverized active ingredient is adhered to the surface of the carrier particles to prevent the aggregation, and the active ingredient to the diseased part such as lung and bronchus is prevented. A technique for improving the reach is known. However, when the fine particles of the active ingredient are adhered to the carrier particles, if the adhesive force is too strong, the active ingredient does not separate from the carrier particles during the inhalation operation, and is deposited in the oral cavity and throat, thereby exhibiting the expected medicinal effect. I can't. In particular, when the content of the active ingredient is low, the fine particles of the active ingredient are hardly redispersed from the carrier particles, resulting in problems such as a reduction in the amount of the active ingredient that reaches the diseased site.
Accordingly, in order to solve such a problem, a preparation for inhalation in which fine particles of an active ingredient are attached to carrier particles, a sufficient amount of the active ingredient discharged from the inhaler can be obtained, and the active ingredient becomes carrier particles after inhalation. Have been reported on a preparation for inhalation that is well separated from urine (see JP-T-8-501056 and JP-A-2001-151673). JP-A-8-501056 reports an inhalation preparation comprising fine particles of an active ingredient and an auxiliary substance, and JP-A-2001-151673 discloses an inhalation preparation comprising an active ingredient, carrier particles and an auxiliary substance. A manufacturing method is reported which includes a step of producing a fine particle mixture of an active ingredient and an auxiliary substance by mixing and pulverizing the active ingredient and the auxiliary substance.
On the other hand, in the process of producing fine particles of the active ingredient, there are problems such as the fine particles adhering to the pulverizer and loss thereof. In addition, when the active ingredient fine particles are adhered to the carrier particles, the active ingredient fine particles and the carrier particles are mixed if the adhesion force of the active ingredient to the carrier particles is smaller than the adhesion force of the active ingredient to the mixing container. In the process, the active ingredient adheres to the mixing container, causing problems such as loss. It is known that fine particles obtained by pulverization have increased adhesion, chargeability and the like as compared with non-pulverized particles (Pharmaceutical Technology, 1994, Vol. 18, 58). This is one of the causes of a decrease in yield when producing fine particles of the active ingredient. In addition, when manufacturing an inhalation preparation in which fine particles of the active ingredient are adhered to the carrier particles, the adhesion rate of the active ingredient to the carrier particles is reduced, which is one of the causes of quality deterioration.
