The present application claims the priority to patent application Ser. No. 202110784642.5, entitled “SACUBITRIL VALSARTAN SODIUM SUSTAINED-RELEASE COMPOSITION, AND PREPARATION METHOD THEREFOR AND USE THEREOF” filed with the China National Intellectual Property Administration on Jul. 12, 2021, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
The present disclosure relates to a sacubitril valsartan sodium sustained-release composition, and preparation method therefor and use thereof.
Sacubitril valsartan sodium is suitable for treating chronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HF-REF) in adult patients, reducing the risk of death of cardiovascular diseases and hospitalization due to heart failure. Sacubitril is an enkephalinase inhibitor, while valsartan is an angiotensin II receptor retardant. Sacubitril valsartan sodium can take the place of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) or angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs) in combined use with other heart failure therapies.
Heart failure (HF) is a condition where the heart of a patient cannot provide sufficient blood supply for the body. Symptoms such as dyspnea, fatigue, and fluid retention may occur and gradually worsen, seriously affecting the quality of life. It has been reported that the annual spend on heart failure globally is 108 billion dollars, and a large epidemiological survey in 2003 suggests that the prevalence of heart failure in adults in China was 0.9%, with about 4.5 million people suffering. In another aspect, hypertension is one of the major causes of heart failure and thus a major global public health problem. As reported by Framingham, hypertension causes 75% of heart failures. In China, the rate is 60% to 88.5%, about 6 times that in the population with normal blood pressure. After the occurrence of heart failure, the 5-year death rate is 50% or higher. The incidence of hypertension in China is about 11.88% at present, with an estimated one hundred million hypertension patients.
About half of the heart failure patients have reduced ejection fractions. Existing heart failure therapies can only block harmful effects caused by the activation of the RAAS system (renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system) and are “offensive” strategies rather than “defensive” cardioprotective measures, thus still resulting in a high death rate in patients receiving such therapies. The data show that 50% of the patients will die within 5 years since the diagnosis of heart failure.
The European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Congress 2014 reported a heart failure clinical study (PARADIGM-HF) involving 8442 patients worldwide, of which 353 were Chinese patients. The study shows that patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HF-REF) receiving a revolutionary heart failure treatment LCZ696 from Novartis had a 20% reduction in death risk and a 21% reduction in hospitalization risk as compared to the enalapril-treated counterpart. The data were published in The New England Journal of Medicine.
Sacubitril valsartan sodium works in a unique and multiplex mode, and can enhance the effect of the cardioprotective neuroendocrine system (the natriuretic peptide system) while inhibiting the harmful effect caused by the activation of the RAAS system. This strategy is both “offensive” and “deffensive”. Recent studies show that LCZ696 can be well tolerated and the adverse events can be easily managed, with a low rate of patient withdrawal from the study due to adverse events.
The chemical name of the sacubitril valsartan sodium is octadecasodium hexa(4-{[(1S,3R)-1-([1,1′-biphenyl)-4-ylmethyl)-4-ethoxy-3-methyl-4-oxobutyl]amino}-4-oxobutyric acid) hexa(N-pentanoyl-N-{[2′-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-yl]methyl}-L-valine)-hydrate (1/15), which has a structural formula as follows:
Novartis has developed common sacubitril valsartan sodium immediate-release tablets at a dosage of 50 mg to 200 mg, b.i.d, which possess a high dose and a high administration frequency so far. Patent reference CN105748420A discloses a method for preparing an LCZ696 sustained-release matrix tablet for treating heart failure. The sustained-release form uses a gel matrix for drug release, featuring a short sustained release period. The active ingredients are completely released in 8 hours, which fails to meet the requirement of a steady release in 24 hours. In addition, the gel-matrix tablet is easily affected by factors such as compression in the gastrointestinal tracts, which may possibly lead to increased drug release rate to different extents, and thus poor sustained-release effect and poor in vivo in vitro correlation.
Therefore, to find a dosage form with good sustained-release effects, steady release, and good compliance in patients with chronic heart failure is an urgent task at present.
The present disclosure provides a sacubitril valsartan sodium sustained-release composition, wherein the sustained-release composition is a 24-hour sustained-release drug, and the dissolution of sacubitril and valsartan simultaneously meets the following three features:

The dissolution data of the sacubitril valsartan sodium sustained-release tablets prepared by the above steps in a phosphate buffer at pH 6.8 is shown in Table 7 and
Sacubitril valsartan sodium described above was sieved with a 60-mesh sieve.
A sustained-release coating solution was prepared according to the following steps: Purified water was added to a beaker and stirred by a magnetic stirrer with acetone added during the stirring. The mixture was uniformly stirred for another 5 minutes after the addition of acetone was completed. Opadry® CA was added slowly to the mixture and the mixture was continuously stirred for 30 to 90 minutes for a complete dissolution to give the sustained-release coating solution.
The drug-containing cores obtained in Step 3 were coated with the sustained-release coating solution described above. At a rotation speed of 8 rpm to 15 rpm, a tablet bed temperature of 25° C. to 35° C., and a spraying speed of 5 rpm to 20 rpm, the solution was sprayed for coating until the coating weight gain was 8.0% to 11.0%. The tablet cores were dried at a tablet bed temperature of 30° C. to 35° C. for 5 to 10 minutes, dried in an air blast dryer at 45° C., and aged for 24 hours to give the coated tablets.

The tablet cores were dried at a tablet bed temperature of 30° C. to 35° C. for 5 to 10 minutes, dried in an air blast dryer at 45° C., and aged for 24 hours to give the coated tablets.
The dissolution data of the sacubitril valsartan sodium sustained-release tablets prepared by the above steps in a phosphate buffer at pH 6.8, water, and an acetate medium at pH 4.5 are shown in Table 9 and
Sacubitril valsartan sodium described above was sieved with a 60-mesh sieve.
The dissolution data of the sacubitril valsartan sodium sustained-release tablets produced by the above steps in a phosphate buffer at pH 6.8 is shown in Table 10 and
Sacubitril valsartan sodium described above was sieved with a 60-mesh sieve.
The dissolution data of the sacubitril valsartan sodium sustained-release tablets produced by the above steps in a phosphate buffer at pH 6.8 is shown in Table 11 and
As can be seen from the results of Examples II-7 and II-8, sacubitril and valsartan greatly differ in the release rate and cannot be released synchronously from gastroretentive sustained-release tablets and common gel-matrix sustained-release tablets in in vitro dissolution conditions.
As can be seen from the results of Examples I-1 to I-6 and Examples II-1 to II-6, sacubitril and valsartan in the sacubitril valsartan sodium sustained-release tablets of the osmotic pump form of the present disclosure can be released synchronously with a long-acting effect in in vitro dissolution conditions, which can meet the requirement of a q.d. regimen; the drug release performance is not influenced by the pH of the medium.
The above examples illustrate the embodiments of the present disclosure. However, the present disclosure is not limited to the embodiments described above. Any modification, equivalent, improvement, and the like made without departing from the spirit and principle of the present disclosure shall fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.
