Description

包含替米沙坦或其藥學上可接受鹽類之具有改良的吸濕性質和溶解速率之製劑Formulation with improved hygroscopicity and dissolution rate containing telmisartan or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof

本發明關於一種包含替米沙坦或其藥學可接受鹽類的穩定製劑。明確言之,本發明關於一種包含替米沙坦或其藥學上可接受鹽類作為活性成分的錠劑,該錠劑之特徵在於包含高劑量的該活性成分及具有接近圓形形狀的性質,其中該錠劑具有改良的吸濕性質及溶解速率。The present invention relates to a stable formulation comprising telmisartan or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. Specifically, the present invention relates to a lozenge containing telmisartan or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as an active ingredient, the lozenge is characterized by containing a high dose of the active ingredient and having properties close to a circular shape, The tablet has improved hygroscopic properties and dissolution rate.

高血壓是一種持續觀察到血壓高於正常範圍的狀態。高血壓可能造成各種併發症而最終導致死亡。高血壓依據血壓升高的病因分為原發性高血壓(primary hypertension)或繼發性高血壓(secondary hypertension)。原發性高血壓為本態性高血壓,其血壓升高的原因不明,而繼發性高血壓是指因特定疾病或病症導致血壓升高的高血壓。繼發性高血壓可藉由找出血壓升高的原因來加以治療。然而,原發性高血壓在總高血壓病例中約佔95%且病因尚不清楚,因此目前是基於數種降壓機制使用藥物療法來治療患有原發性高血壓的病患。Hypertension is a condition in which blood pressure is consistently observed above the normal range. High blood pressure can cause various complications and ultimately death. Hypertension is divided into primary hypertension or secondary hypertension according to the cause of elevated blood pressure. Primary hypertension is normal hypertension, and the cause of the elevated blood pressure is unknown, while secondary hypertension refers to high blood pressure caused by a specific disease or condition. Secondary hypertension can be treated by identifying the cause of the elevated blood pressure. However, essential hypertension accounts for about 95% of total hypertension cases and the cause is unknown, so drug therapy is currently used to treat patients with essential hypertension based on several hypotensive mechanisms.

常用來治療高血藥的藥物依據作用機制主要包括血管擴張劑(vasodilator)、利尿劑(diuretics)及交感神經阻斷劑(sympatholytic agent)。目前廣為使用的血管擴張劑依作用機制分為血管收縮素轉化酶(angiotensin converting enzyme,ACE)抑制劑、血管收縮素受體阻斷劑(angiotensin receptor blocker,以下稱「ARB」)及鈣離子通道阻斷劑(calcium channel blocker,以下稱「CCB」)。The drug-based mechanisms commonly used to treat hypertensive drugs mainly include vasodilators, diuretics, and sympatholytic agents. The currently used vasodilators are divided into angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blocker (hereinafter referred to as "ARB") and calcium ions according to their mechanism of action. Channel blocker (hereinafter referred to as "CCB").

在高血壓中,重要的是使血壓保持在正常範圍內以防止發生心血管併發症(例如,中風、腎衰竭及冠狀動脈疾病,包括心臟衰竭及心肌梗塞,等等),而非治療血壓本身。正因如此,血壓的穩定及病患控制很重要。由於降壓藥物需長期服用,故需謹慎選擇治療藥物。因此,為達到持續治療目的,必需聯合使用數種具有不同機制的藥物而非選擇僅單一種藥物,以便發揮更佳的預防及治療效果。此外,應藉由聯合療法(combination therapy)以允許減少每種藥物的用量而降低任何因長期服用藥物所導致的副作用。In hypertension, it is important to keep blood pressure within the normal range to prevent cardiovascular complications (for example, stroke, renal failure, and coronary artery disease, including heart failure and myocardial infarction, etc.) rather than treating blood pressure itself . Because of this, stability of blood pressure and patient control are important. Since antihypertensive drugs need to be taken for a long period of time, care should be taken to select a therapeutic drug. Therefore, in order to achieve the purpose of continuous treatment, it is necessary to use several drugs with different mechanisms in combination instead of choosing only one drug in order to exert better preventive and therapeutic effects. In addition, combination therapy should be used to allow a reduction in the amount of each drug to reduce any side effects caused by long-term use of the drug.

特定而言,ARB與CCB的聯合療法(兩者在人體中的各自作用機制不相同)是作為倘若使用單一療法控制血壓失敗時所採用之聯合療法的首選。此是因為該兩種藥物用來降血壓的藥理作用不同。因此,該兩種藥物的聯合療法不僅能有效降低血壓,還能降低該藥物用量,使得各成分的副作用能大幅降低。In particular, the combination therapy of ARB and CCB (their respective mechanisms of action in the human body are different) is the first choice for combination therapy if monotherapy fails to control blood pressure. This is because the two drugs have different pharmacological effects for lowering blood pressure. Therefore, the combination therapy of the two drugs can not only effectively lower blood pressure, but also reduce the dosage of the drug, so that the side effects of each component can be greatly reduced.

替米沙坦(Telmisartan)是ARB之一,目前以商品名「必康平(Micardis)」採20毫克(mg)、40毫克及80毫克劑量在市場上販售。替米沙坦是用來治療本態性高血壓的處方藥,在本態性高血壓中,血管收縮素II型受體在腎素-血管收縮素-醛固酮系統中充當強血管收縮劑,而替米沙坦會選擇性地作用在血管收縮素II型受體上,尤其是參與主要生理作用(包括血管收縮)的AT1受體。Telmisartan is one of the ARBs. It is currently sold in the market under the trade name "Micardis" in 20 mg, 40 mg, and 80 mg doses. Telmisartan is a prescription drug used to treat essential hypertension. In this condition, the angiotensin type II receptor acts as a strong vasoconstrictor in the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. Tan will selectively act on the angiotensin type II receptor, especially the AT1 receptor, which is involved in major physiological functions, including vasoconstriction.

儘管替米沙坦的效果卓越,含替米沙坦之習知藥劑的缺點是當接觸空氣中的水分時,極易吸濕而導致該產品變質。因此需藉由鋁製泡罩包裝來防止在分銷及倉儲期間發生變質。然而,大體積的鋁製泡罩包裝不方便攜帶。再者,若在貯存及運送期間包裝受損,可能使該醫療用藥變質。Despite the excellent effect of telmisartan, the disadvantage of conventional agents containing telmisartan is that when exposed to moisture in the air, it is extremely hygroscopic and causes the product to deteriorate. Therefore, aluminum blister packaging is needed to prevent deterioration during distribution and storage. However, bulky aluminum blister packs are not convenient to carry. Furthermore, if the packaging is damaged during storage and transportation, the medical drug may deteriorate.

技術問題technical problem

文獻記載替米沙坦在生理pH範圍1至7之水中的溶解度極差。因此,在製劑設計中,替米沙坦較佳與鹼性劑併用以改良溶解度及助溶解(solubilization)。在此情況中,若接觸到水分或經服用,替米沙坦變為吸濕性,且該錠劑常變黏或融化。The literature reports that Telmisartan has very poor solubility in water at physiological pH ranging from 1 to 7. Therefore, in the formulation design, telmisartan is preferably used in combination with an alkaline agent to improve solubility and assist solubilization. In this case, telmisartan becomes hygroscopic if exposed to water or taken, and the lozenges often become sticky or melt.

提高輔劑(包括矽酸鈣)量來解決該問題會導致該錠劑的體積增加及提高該錠劑之長軸與短軸的比值,因而使該錠劑容易破裂。Increasing the amount of adjuvant (including calcium silicate) to solve the problem will cause the volume of the lozenge to increase and increase the ratio of the long axis to the short axis of the lozenge, thus making the lozenge easy to break.

因此,本案發明人完成本發明以當調配含有替米沙坦或其藥學上可接受鹽類作為活性劑的錠劑時,可提供具有改良之吸濕性質及溶解速率且不易破裂的高劑量錠劑。問題之解決方案 Therefore, the inventors of the present invention have completed the present invention to provide a high-dose tablet with improved hygroscopicity and dissolution rate and not easily broken when formulating a tablet containing telmisartan or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt as an active agent Agent. Problem solution

為了達成上述目標,本發明提供一種包含替米沙坦或其藥學上可接受鹽類以作為活性成分的錠劑,以該錠劑的總重計,該錠劑中包含高劑量的該活性成分且該長軸與該短軸的比值降低而具有接近圓形形狀的性質。In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a lozenge containing telmisartan or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as an active ingredient. The lozenge contains a high dose of the active ingredient based on the total weight of the lozenge In addition, the ratio of the long axis to the short axis is reduced to have a property close to a circular shape.

目前市場上所販售含有替米沙坦作為活性成分的必康平(Micardis)中,該活性成分含量佔該錠劑總重量的約17%。Among the currently sold Micardis containing telmisartan as an active ingredient, the content of the active ingredient accounts for about 17% of the total weight of the lozenge.

本發明提供一種以錠劑的總重量計,包含至少20重量%、較佳範圍在25重量%至30重量%之替米沙坦的高劑量錠劑。The present invention provides a high-dose lozenge containing at least 20% by weight of telmisartan, preferably in the range of 25% to 30% by weight, based on the total weight of the lozenge.

再者,本發明提供一種藉由確認錠劑之長軸與短軸的比值較小及該錠劑之破碎度較低,故而具有接近圓形形狀之性質的錠劑。因此,本發明提供一種錠劑,其中該短軸對該長軸的比值範圍為1:1至1:1.6。Furthermore, the present invention provides a lozenge having a property close to a circular shape by confirming that the ratio of the major axis to the minor axis of the lozenge is small and the degree of fragmentation of the lozenge is low. Therefore, the present invention provides a lozenge, wherein the ratio of the short axis to the long axis ranges from 1: 1 to 1: 1.6.

本發明之錠劑包含矽酸鈣以改良替米沙坦的吸濕性質。矽酸鈣的量增加時,錠劑的體積隨之增加。此外,難以使該錠劑維持圓形形狀的性質。因此,在本發明的錠劑中,替米沙坦或其藥學上可接受鹽類與矽酸鈣之間的重量比為10:0.5至10:5。The lozenges of the present invention contain calcium silicate to improve the hygroscopic properties of telmisartan. As the amount of calcium silicate increases, the volume of the lozenge increases. In addition, it is difficult to maintain the properties of the tablets in a circular shape. Therefore, in the lozenge of the present invention, the weight ratio between telmisartan or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and calcium silicate is 10: 0.5 to 10: 5.

此外,本發明進一步包括崩散劑以增進該錠劑的溶解速率。該崩散劑可包括,但不限於選自以下群組中之至少一者:低取代羥丙基纖維素(low substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose)、交聯羧甲基纖維素鈉(croscarmellose sodium)、交聯聚乙烯吡咯烷酮(crospovidone)及羧甲基澱粉鈉(sodium starch glycolate)。較佳可包含低取代羥丙基纖維素以作為本發明的崩散劑。In addition, the present invention further includes a dispersant to enhance the dissolution rate of the lozenge. The disintegrating agent may include, but is not limited to, at least one selected from the group consisting of low substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose, croscarmellose sodium, crosslinked polymer Crospovidone and sodium starch glycolate. It may be preferable to include low-substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose as the dispersant of the present invention.

再者,依該錠劑的總重計,本發明可包括3重量%至15重量%的低取代羥丙基纖維素,使得該錠劑在崩散及該活性成分之溶解方面表現出改良效果。Furthermore, based on the total weight of the tablet, the present invention may include 3% to 15% by weight of low-substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose, so that the tablet exhibits improved effects in terms of disintegration and dissolution of the active ingredient. .

此外,本發明可為一種藥學組成物,該藥學組成物包括:含有替米沙坦或其藥學上可接受鹽類的第一層;及包含另一藥理活性成分的第二層。In addition, the present invention may be a pharmaceutical composition comprising: a first layer containing telmisartan or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; and a second layer containing another pharmacologically active ingredient.

本發明提供一種藥學組合物,該藥學組合物包括包含替米沙坦或其藥學上可接受鹽類的第一層;及包含另一藥理活性成分的第二層,特徵在於以該第一層的總重量計,所含的替米沙坦或其藥學上可接受鹽類佔至少20重量%,及該組合物具有之短軸對長軸的比值為1:1至1:1.6。The invention provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising a first layer comprising telmisartan or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; and a second layer comprising another pharmacologically active ingredient, characterized in that the first layer Based on the total weight of telmisartan or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, it contains at least 20% by weight, and the composition has a short-axis to long-axis ratio of 1: 1 to 1: 1.6.

[表7] [TABLE 7]

測量以上所製備的實例18至實例21之該等錠劑的崩散時間。依據韓國藥典中所載的崩散試驗方法測量該崩散時間,在該方法中,使用純水作為崩散介質且水溫保持37±2°C。該崩散時間判定為該等錠劑從該粉碎機底部完全消失所耗的時間。以下[表8]中示出該崩散時間的測量結果。The disintegration time of the tablets of Examples 18 to 21 prepared above was measured. The disintegration time was measured according to the disintegration test method contained in the Korean Pharmacopoeia, in which pure water was used as a disintegration medium and the water temperature was maintained at 37 ± 2 ° C. The disintegration time is determined as the time it takes for the tablets to completely disappear from the bottom of the pulverizer. The measurement results of the disintegration time are shown in [Table 8] below.

[表8] [TABLE 8]

如以上[表8]中所示,實例18的錠劑表現出最短的崩散時間。因此,確認低取代羥丙基纖維素是最適合的崩散劑。[ 實施例 5] As shown in [Table 8] above, the lozenge of Example 18 showed the shortest disintegration time. Therefore, it was confirmed that low-substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose is the most suitable dispersant. [ Example 5]

依據崩散劑的量進行替米沙坦錠劑的溶解速率(%)實驗Dissolution rate (%) experiment of telmisartan tablets according to the amount of disintegrating agent

依據實施例1所述的製備方法製備實例22至實例24的替米沙坦錠劑,條件是該組成如[表9]中所述。The telmisartan tablets of Examples 22 to 24 were prepared according to the preparation method described in Example 1, provided that the composition was as described in [Table 9].

[表9] [TABLE 9]

測量實例18及實例22至實例24之錠劑的單位時間溶解速率。The dissolution rate per unit time of the tablets of Examples 18 and 22 to 24 was measured.

依據韓國藥典中所載的方法II(槳式法,paddle method)測量該溶解速率,使用900毫升(ml)的磷酸鹽緩衝液(pH7.5)作為溶解介質,且溶解溫度為37±0.5°C,及轉速為75rpm。於開始溶解後的5分鐘、10分鐘、15分鐘及30分鐘處取出溶解介質。隨後使用該經過濾的溶液作為檢驗溶液(test solution),使用液相色層分析儀(liquid chromatograph)及利用標準溶液對該檢驗溶液進行分析。The dissolution rate was measured according to the method II (paddle method) contained in the Korean Pharmacopoeia, and 900 ml (ml) of a phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.5) was used as the dissolution medium, and the dissolution temperature was 37 ± 0.5 ° C, and the speed is 75 rpm. The dissolution medium was removed at 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, and 30 minutes after the start of dissolution. The filtered solution was then used as a test solution, and the test solution was analyzed using a liquid chromatograph and a standard solution.

[第2圖]中示出每小時的溶解速率,及[表10]中示出30分鐘內的溶解速率。The dissolution rate per hour is shown in [Figure 2], and the dissolution rate within 30 minutes is shown in [Table 10].

[表10] [TABLE 10]

如以上[表10]中所示,當低取代羥丙基纖維素的量增加,該溶解速率隨之提升。含9重量%之崩散劑的實例24展現出最卓越的溶解速率。As shown in [Table 10] above, when the amount of low-substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose is increased, the dissolution rate is increased accordingly. Example 24, which contains 9% by weight of a disintegrating agent, showed the most excellent dissolution rate.
