Description

一种卢美哌隆药物组合物、长效微球缓释制剂及其制备方法 技术领域
本发明属于药物制剂领域,涉及抗精神病类缓释药物制剂及其制备方法,尤其涉及一种卢美哌隆药物组合物、长效微球缓释制剂及其制备方法。
背景技术
精神病一般指心理障碍,具体是指一个人由于生理、心理或社会原因而导致的各种异常心理过程、异常人格特征的异常行为方式,是一个人表现为没有能力按照社会认可的适宜方式行动,以致其行为的后果对本人和社会都是不适应的。为此,常采用抗精神病药来治疗或者缓解该症状。
其中,涉及的第一代抗精神病药的代表药物有氯丙嗪、奋乃静、氟哌啶醇、五氟利多等,通过阻断多巴胺受体,有效缓解阳性症状,但对阴性症状及认知功能受损几乎无效;第二代抗精神病药的代表药物有利培酮、氯氮平、奥氮平、阿立哌唑、喹硫平、齐拉西酮等,可阻断多巴胺受体和5‐羟色胺受体,与大多数第一代药物相比,锥体外系不良反应发生率较低,但大部分的第二代药物会导致体重增加和糖脂代谢紊乱(发胖);近两年,公开一种多靶点作用的新型抗精神病药——卢美哌隆,CAS号:313368‐91‐1,英文名称:ITI‐722或Lumateperone,于2019年12月被批准在美国上市,用于成人精神分裂症的治疗。不同于第一代和第二代抗精神病药,其一般只针对5‐羟色胺和多巴胺两种神经递质,卢美哌隆还能作用于谷氨酰胺神经递质的传递,这使其不仅能改善精神分裂症患者的阳性症状(妄想、幻觉、行为异常等),对阴性症状(情感平淡、言语贫乏、意志活动减退等)及抑郁症状也有效。此外,相较于第二代抗精神病药物,卢美哌隆克服了体重增加和糖脂代谢紊乱的缺点,发生体重增加的几率减少。研究显示,卢美哌隆和目前常用的抗精神病药利培酮相比,体重增加的风险降低了13%。
目前,对于已有的抗精神病药的用药情况,患者不能坚持规律地用药是导致疾病复发的主要原因之一。临床试验证实,已有的抗精神病药长效针剂相比于口服抗精神病药可显著降低患者的住院率、治疗中断率,是预防复发的重要治疗方法。每隔一段时间打一次针,患者平常不用担心忘记服药,减 轻每天的负担,而且生活工作中不用担心服药被别人发现,有效保护自己隐私,另外也可以防止药物滥用。当下,第二代抗精神病药长效针剂已作为急性期和维持期精神分裂症患者的一线治疗用药,我国已上市的第二代抗精神病药长效针剂有:每2周注射1次注射用利培酮微球、每月注射1次的棕榈酸帕利哌酮和每3个月注射1次的棕榈帕利哌酮酯,而卢美哌隆长效缓释制剂的开发尚处于空白阶段。
现有技术CN113473988A、CN114072150A中公开:游离形式或可药用盐形式的卢美哌隆可以通过任意适宜的途径施用,包括口服、胃肠外、经皮或经粘膜,例如以片剂、胶囊剂、皮下注射、长效可注射或用于舌下或颊施用的口服快速崩解片或膜的形式。就剂量和效果而言,FDA说明书指出口服的最佳剂量为42mg/天,不需要剂量滴定,这对卢美哌隆长效缓释注射剂提出了苛刻的设计要求:需要具有突释小、释放稳定且均匀的特点,这也是卢美哌隆长效缓释注射剂目前最大的挑战之一。目前尚无专利或论文文献公开有效的卢美哌隆长效缓释注射剂的制备方法。
因此,开发突释小、释放平稳的卢美哌隆长效制剂,以充分发挥卢美哌隆在抗精神病领域的临床优势(如:克服体重增加和糖脂代谢紊乱的缺点,提高安全性;能同时改善精神分裂症患者的阳性、阴性症状(情感平淡、言语贫乏、意志活动减退等)及抑郁症状),成为急需解决的技术问题。

实施例22
在实施例1‐21的干燥工序中,具体可采用冷冻干燥或真空干燥,其中,涉及的冷冻干燥程序如表1所示。
表1
试验例1
本试验例将经实施例1‐12所制备的卢美哌隆长效缓释微球进行体外释放检测【根据中华人民共和国药典(P.473)的规定】,以对本发明做进一 步的说明。具体包括:
一、配制0.01mol/L生理等渗磷酸盐缓冲溶液,pH 7.4,其中,含有0.05%泊洛沙姆和0.05%叠氮化钠);
二、精密称取经实施例1‐12所制备的卢美哌隆长效缓释微球,置于试管中,加至30mL的生理等渗磷酸盐缓冲溶液中,置于37℃的恒温摇床培养;
三、分别取样,将样品过滤后,采用HPLC‐UV法,分别测样品液介质中活性药物含量。
结论:
1)从本发明的实施例可知:由于微流控技术本身的特点(药物和辅料均在微通道内形成微球),除了溶出和少量损失,活性药物几乎没有损耗,所以,微流控法较均质乳化法制备卢美哌隆长效缓释微球的包封率要高;
2)根据图2‐4,可知:采用本方案提供的均质乳化法和微流控法,可制备得缓释1~6周的卢美哌隆长效缓释微球,其中,通过微流控法制备的产品具有尺寸均一、形貌良好(如图1)、突释低、释放稳定的特点。通过对工艺条件参数的控制,可以制备得到符合突释小、释放平稳的卢美哌隆缓释微球制剂;
3)根据图4,可知:在卢美哌隆长效缓释微球制备过程中,选用酯基封端的PLGA与羧基封端的PLGA的差别不大,PLGA分子量对释放有较大影响。通过特别限定PLGA分子量,可以调整卢美哌隆长效缓释微球的缓释周期和释放曲线,最终,以制备符合临床需求的微球制剂;
4)在对活性成分卢美哌隆高(40%的理论载药量)和低(5%的理论载药量)投料量的筛选实验中,发现:低投料量,虽然能保证较高的包封率,但是制剂中PLGA含量过高,这意味着临床实践时固体总量增加,将引起疼痛感;而高投料量,会对制剂产生不良的影响,包封率降低,且一定程度影响释放行为。
试验例2
选择实施例14-21的卢美哌隆微球进行动物实验。筛选体重在250g左右雄性大鼠若干,随机分组,每组5只,将样品与溶媒(0.5%CMC-Na,0.1%吐温-20,0.9%NaCl)混合均匀。实施例14-18和实施例21肌内注射给予10.5mg/kg药物,实施例19和20肌内注射给予21mg/kg药物,均给药 一次。分别于给药前和给药后静脉采血,测定给药后血浆中卢美哌隆浓度。
从图7和图8可以看出,本发明已实现从12天到63天不等的长效缓释效果,且突释情况良好,几乎无迟滞期,血药浓度曲线呈正态分布。
从图5和图6可以看出本发明所述微球形态圆整,分布均匀,内部紧实。
