 ロピニロールは、パーキンソン病の症状の改善薬として知られる。ロピニロールを含む製剤は、ロピニロール含有経皮投与製剤等の剤形として調製されている。ロピニロール含有経皮投与製剤に含まれるロピニロールは、製剤の保存中に、酸素、光等によって変性してしまう可能性があるので、ロピニロールの変性を防ぐための、製剤の保存方法が検討されている。このような保存方法として、例えば、特定の相対湿度に維持された包装袋中にロピニロール含有経皮投与製剤を封入する方法(特許文献1)が挙げられる。 Ropinirole is known as a remedy for symptoms of Parkinson's disease. The preparation containing ropinirole is prepared as a dosage form such as a preparation for transdermal administration containing ropinirole. Since ropinirole contained in a ropinirole-containing transdermal preparation may be denatured by oxygen, light, etc. during storage of the formulation, a method for storing the formulation to prevent denaturation of ropinirole is being investigated. . As such a storage method, for example, there is a method (Patent Document 1) in which a ropinirole-containing transdermal preparation is enclosed in a packaging bag maintained at a specific relative humidity.

[粘着剤]
 粘着剤層に含まれる粘着剤としては、皮膚に適用される経皮投与製剤において一般的に使用されるものであれば特に限定されず、アクリル系粘着剤、ゴム系粘着剤又はシリコン系粘着剤のうち1種以上であってもよい。
[Adhesive]
The pressure-sensitive adhesive contained in the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is not particularly limited as long as it is generally used in a preparation for transdermal administration applied to the skin, and is an acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive, rubber-based pressure-sensitive adhesive, or silicon-based pressure-sensitive adhesive. 1 or more types may be sufficient.
 従来、ロピニロール含有経皮投与製剤において、粘着剤としてアクリル系粘着剤を使用すると、ロピニロールの安定性を損なう可能性があった。しかし、本発明の経皮投与製剤においては、粘着剤としてアクリル系粘着剤を使用しても、ロピニロールの安定性を損ないにくい。したがって、本発明においては、アクリル系粘着剤を好ましく使用できる。アクリル系粘着剤のうち、ロピニロールとの反応性が低く、ロピニロールの経皮吸収性の低下を抑制でき、酸素による影響を受けにくいという点で、実質的にカルボキシル基(カルボキシ基)を含まないアクリル系粘着剤が好ましい。「実質的にカルボキシル基を含まない」とは、全くカルボキシル基を含まないものだけではなく、設計上、全てのカルボキシル基がエステル結合等の置換基に変換されているものも意味し、その中には、例えば、ごく一部のエステル結合等が加水分解により遊離カルボキシル基に変換されている場合や、原材料由来の不純物として遊離カルボキシル基を含む場合も含まれる。 Conventionally, when an acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive is used as a pressure-sensitive adhesive in a ropinirole-containing transdermal preparation, the stability of ropinirole may be impaired. However, in the percutaneous preparation of the present invention, even if an acrylic adhesive is used as the adhesive, the stability of ropinirole is hardly impaired. Therefore, in the present invention, an acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive can be preferably used. Among acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesives, an acrylic that does not substantially contain a carboxyl group (carboxy group) in that it has a low reactivity with ropinirole, can suppress a decrease in transdermal absorbability of ropinirole, and is hardly affected by oxygen. System adhesives are preferred. “Substantially free of carboxyl groups” means not only those that do not contain any carboxyl groups, but also those in which all carboxyl groups are converted into substituents such as ester bonds by design. For example, the case where a very small part of ester bond or the like is converted to a free carboxyl group by hydrolysis or the case where a free carboxyl group is contained as an impurity derived from the raw material is included.
 実質的にカルボキシル基を含まないアクリル系粘着剤としては、特に限定されないが、例えば、特開2005-325101号公報、特許3809462号等に記載された粘着剤を使用できる。これらのうち、特開2005-325101号公報に記載されたアクリル系粘着剤を特に好適に使用できる。 The acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive which does not substantially contain a carboxyl group is not particularly limited, but for example, pressure-sensitive adhesives described in JP-A-2005-325101, Patent 3809462 and the like can be used. Of these, the acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive described in JP-A-2005-325101 can be used particularly preferably.
 本発明におけるアクリル系粘着剤としては、ロピニロールとの反応性がより低く、ロピニロールの経皮吸収性の低下をより抑制でき、酸素による影響をより受けにくいという点で、実質的にカルボキシル基及びヒドロキシ基を含まないアクリル系粘着剤が特に好ましい。 As the acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive in the present invention, the reactivity with ropinirole is lower, the decrease in the transdermal absorbability of ropinirole can be further suppressed, and the carboxyl group and hydroxy group are substantially reduced in that they are less susceptible to oxygen. An acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive containing no group is particularly preferable.
 経皮投与製剤中には、必要に応じて上記以外の成分が含まれていてもよい。このような成分としては、粘着付与剤、可塑剤(ミリスチン酸イソプロピル等)、防腐剤、pH調整剤、キレート剤、経皮吸収促進剤、賦形剤、香料、色剤、脂肪酸、油脂等が挙げられる。 In the preparation for transdermal administration, components other than the above may be contained as necessary. Such components include tackifiers, plasticizers (such as isopropyl myristate), preservatives, pH adjusters, chelating agents, transdermal absorption promoters, excipients, fragrances, colorants, fatty acids, fats and oils, etc. Can be mentioned.
[支持体]
 本発明における支持体としては、特に限定されず、ポリエチレン、ポリプロピレン等から製造された伸縮性もしくは非伸縮性の織布又は不織布、ポリエチレン、ポリプロピレン、エチレン酢酸ビニル共重合体、塩化ビニル等から製造されたフィルム、あるいはウレタン、ポリウレタン等から製造された発泡性支持体が挙げられ、これらを1種単独で又は複数種が積層されたものが使用できる。
[Support]
The support in the present invention is not particularly limited, and is manufactured from stretchable or non-stretchable woven or non-woven fabrics made from polyethylene, polypropylene, etc., polyethylene, polypropylene, ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer, vinyl chloride, etc. Film, or a foamable support produced from urethane, polyurethane, or the like, and these may be used alone or in a laminate of plural kinds.
[剥離ライナ]
 本発明の経皮投与製剤は、支持体と、この支持体の片面に積層された粘着剤層と、を備えるが、通常、粘着剤層の支持体との接触面とは反対の面に、剥離可能なライナ(剥離ライナ)をさらに備える形態で提供されてもよい。
[Peeling liner]
The preparation for transdermal administration of the present invention comprises a support and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer laminated on one side of the support, but usually on the surface opposite to the contact surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer with the support, You may provide with the form further provided with the peelable liner (peeling liner).
 剥離可能なライナとしては、ポリエチレン、ポリプロピレン、エチレン酢酸ビニル共重合体、塩化ビニル等から製造されたフィルム、アルミニウム蒸着の金属性のフィルム等が使用できる。ライナ表面にシリコン処理等の剥離処理が施されたものを使用してもよい。さらに、ライナには、剥離を容易にするため、直線又は曲線状の切れ込みが設けられていてもよく、2以上のライナが一部重畳されたものや、折返し部を有するものでもよい。 As the peelable liner, there can be used a film made of polyethylene, polypropylene, ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer, vinyl chloride or the like, an aluminum-deposited metallic film, or the like. A liner surface that has been subjected to a peeling treatment such as a silicon treatment may be used. Further, in order to facilitate peeling, the liner may be provided with a straight or curved cut, or may have two or more liners partially overlapped or may have a folded portion.
<経皮投与製剤の製造方法>
 経皮投与製剤の調製方法は特に限定されず、公知の経皮投与製剤の調製方法によって調製できる。例えば、粘着剤層を構成する成分を均一に撹拌し、得られた組成物を、塗工機を用いて支持体表面上に塗工乾燥した後に経皮投与製剤を得る方法等が挙げられる。
<Method for producing transdermal preparation>
The preparation method of a transdermal administration formulation is not specifically limited, It can prepare by the known preparation method of a transdermal administration formulation. For example, the component which comprises an adhesive layer is stirred uniformly, The method of obtaining a transdermal administration formulation after coating and drying the obtained composition on the support surface using a coating machine etc. is mentioned.
<包装材>
 本発明の経皮投与製剤は、包装材内に包装されていてもよい。本発明において「包装材」とは、経皮投与製剤をその内部に封入させるものであり、包装袋等とも呼ばれ得るものである。包装材としては、気体を密封できるものであれば特に限定されず、テープ剤、パップ剤等の経皮投与製剤の包装材として通常使用されるものであってもよい。また、包装材内に経皮投与製剤を包装する際には、不活性ガス(窒素等)によって置換された包装材内に経皮投与製剤を封入してもよいし、置換されない包装材内に経皮投与製剤を封入してもよい。封入はシーリング等によって行うことができる。シーリングとしては、ヒートシール、接着剤によるシール等の公知の方法を適用できる。ロピニロール類縁物質の生成を顕著に抑制できるという観点から、窒素によって置換された包装材内に経皮投与製剤を封入することが好ましい。本発明において、内部に経皮投与製剤が封入された状態の包装材を、「包装体」ともいう。
<Packaging material>
The preparation for transdermal administration of the present invention may be packaged in a packaging material. In the present invention, the “packaging material” encapsulates a preparation for transdermal administration, and can also be called a packaging bag or the like. The packaging material is not particularly limited as long as it can seal a gas, and may be a packaging material for a preparation for transdermal administration such as a tape or a poultice. In addition, when packaging a transdermal preparation in a packaging material, the transdermal administration preparation may be enclosed in a packaging material substituted with an inert gas (such as nitrogen), or in a packaging material that is not replaced. A preparation for transdermal administration may be enclosed. The sealing can be performed by sealing or the like. As the sealing, known methods such as heat sealing and sealing with an adhesive can be applied. From the viewpoint that production of ropinirole analogues can be remarkably suppressed, it is preferable to encapsulate a transdermal preparation in a packaging material substituted with nitrogen. In the present invention, a packaging material in which a preparation for transdermal administration is enclosed is also referred to as a “packaging body”.
 包装材内を不活性ガス(窒素等)によって置換する場合、包装材内の酸素濃度を5.0質量%以下、好ましくは3.0質量%以下(より好ましくは、1.0質量%以下)に調整することが好ましい。不活性ガス(窒素等)による置換は、不活性ガス環境下で包装材を封入することで行うことができる。 When replacing the inside of the packaging material with an inert gas (such as nitrogen), the oxygen concentration in the packaging material is 5.0 mass% or less, preferably 3.0 mass% or less (more preferably 1.0 mass% or less). It is preferable to adjust to. Replacement with an inert gas (such as nitrogen) can be performed by enclosing the packaging material in an inert gas environment.
 本発明の経皮投与製剤は、経皮投与製剤と別体又は一体である脱酸素剤(鉄粉、亜鉛粉、ハイドロサルファイト、アスコルビン酸系剤、多価アルコール系剤、活性炭系剤等の、包装材内の酸素量を低減するために一般的に使用される剤)を包装材内に封入しなくとも、経皮投与製剤中のロピニロールの変性を抑制できる。ただし、脱酸素剤を包装材内に封入することは、本発明の範囲から除外されず、脱酸素剤を包装材内に封入することで、ロピニロールの変性をより効果的に抑制し得る。脱酸素剤は、乾燥剤としての作用を有するもの(例えば、ファーマキープ KD-20、三菱ガス化学(株)製)であってもよい。 The transdermal administration preparation of the present invention comprises oxygen scavengers (iron powder, zinc powder, hydrosulfite, ascorbic acid-based agent, polyhydric alcohol-based agent, activated carbon-based agent, etc., which are separate or integrated with the transdermally administered formulation. The denaturation of ropinirole in the preparation for transdermal administration can be suppressed without enclosing an agent generally used for reducing the amount of oxygen in the packaging material in the packaging material. However, encapsulating the oxygen scavenger in the packaging material is not excluded from the scope of the present invention, and the denaturation of ropinirole can be more effectively suppressed by encapsulating the oxygen scavenger in the packaging material. The oxygen scavenger may be one having an action as a desiccant (for example, Pharmakeep KD-20, manufactured by Mitsubishi Gas Chemical Co., Inc.).
 不活性ガス(窒素等)による包装材内の置換及び包装材内への脱酸素剤の封入は、いずれかのみを行ってもよく、これらを組み合わせて行ってもよい。 The replacement of the inside of the packaging material with an inert gas (nitrogen or the like) and the encapsulation of the oxygen scavenger in the packaging material may be performed either alone or in combination.
 本発明の経皮投与製剤は、酸素濃度が低減された包装材内に包装され得る。本発明の経皮投与製剤は、例えば、包装材内の酸素濃度が5.0質量%以下、好ましくは3.0質量%以下(より好ましくは、1.0質量%以下)に維持される。ただし、本発明の経皮投与製剤は、酸素による影響を受けにくく、ロピニロールの安定性が損なわれにくいため、包装材内の酸素濃度が5.0質量%以上であることは排除されない。 The preparation for transdermal administration of the present invention can be packaged in a packaging material having a reduced oxygen concentration. In the preparation for transdermal administration of the present invention, for example, the oxygen concentration in the packaging material is maintained at 5.0% by mass or less, preferably 3.0% by mass or less (more preferably 1.0% by mass or less). However, since the percutaneous preparation of the present invention is not easily affected by oxygen and the stability of ropinirole is not easily impaired, it is not excluded that the oxygen concentration in the packaging material is 5.0% by mass or more.
 包装材内の酸素濃度は、酸素濃度計(例えば、Oxygen Meter Model RO-102(飯島電子工業株式会社製))によって特定する。 The oxygen concentration in the packaging material is specified by an oxygen concentration meter (for example, Oxygen Meter Model RO-102 (manufactured by Iijima Electronics Co., Ltd.)).
<経皮投与製剤中のロピニロールの安定性>
 本発明の経皮投与製剤においては、経皮投与製剤中のロピニロールの変性が抑制され、薬物安定性が良好である。本発明において、「ロピニロールの変性」とは、ロピニロールが分解等することで、ロピニロール量が減少したり、ロピニロールの分解物や類縁物質等が増加したりすることを指す。経皮投与製剤中のロピニロールの変性が抑制されているかどうかは、HPLC等によって、経皮投与製剤中のロピニロール又はロピニロールの類縁物質等を検出することによって特定される。ロピニロールの類縁物質は、ロピニロールが酸素や光によって変性等することで生じる物質であり、ロピニロール本来の薬効が低下した物質、又は、ロピニロール本来の薬効を有さない物質である。そのため、経皮投与製剤中から検出される類縁物質の量が低いほど、ロピニロールの薬物安定性が高いことを示す。ロピニロールの類縁物質としては、例えば、4E-indolone、Monopropyl ropinirole、Propylidene ropinirole、Unknown 1、Unknown 2が挙げられる。これらの物質の量は、HPLCによって特定する。
<Stability of ropinirole in transdermal administration>
In the transdermal preparation of the present invention, the degeneration of ropinirole in the transdermal preparation is suppressed, and the drug stability is good. In the present invention, “modification of ropinirole” means that ropinirole is decomposed or the like, thereby reducing the amount of ropinirole or increasing the decomposition product or related substances of ropinirole. Whether or not the degeneration of ropinirole in the preparation for transdermal administration is suppressed is specified by detecting ropinirole or a related substance of ropinirole in the preparation for transdermal administration by HPLC or the like. A related substance of ropinirole is a substance that is produced by denaturation of ropinirole by oxygen or light, and is a substance that has reduced the original medicinal effect of ropinirole or a substance that does not have the original medicinal effect of ropinirole. Therefore, it shows that the drug stability of ropinirole is so high that the amount of the related substance detected from a transdermal administration formulation is low. Examples of the related substances of ropinirole include 4E-indolelone, Monopropyl ropirile, propylidene ropirirole, Unknown 1, and Unknown 2. The amount of these substances is determined by HPLC.
 以下、実施例により本発明をさらに詳しく説明するが、本発明はこれらに限定されるものではない。 Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to examples, but the present invention is not limited thereto.
