Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a method for producing a liposome composition with a high leakage rate of a nucleic acid analog anticancer agent. By controlling the content ratio of a specific lipid and the ratio of the nucleic acid analog anticancer agent to the lipid, the liposome has a leakage rate that is significantly improved compared to existing methods. This results in a more effective delivery of the nucleic acid analog anticancer agent to cancer cells, reducing the likelihood of side effects and improving efficacy. The liposome composition produced using this method has a high leakage rate of the nucleic acid analog anticancer agent and can be used for cancer treatment with reduced risk of side effects.

Problems solved by technology

Therefore, in a case where an exposure time is short, effective cytocidal properties cannot be obtained.
In a case where in vivo metabolism after administration of such a drug is fast, in many cases, sufficient exposure time in tumors cannot be obtained and an expected drug efficacy cannot be obtained.
However, there is a problem in that the quality of life (QOL) is greatly impaired, for example, a problem of restraint of a patient during instillation.
In addition, according to the remote loading method disclosed in Pharmaceutical Research, 2014, 31, 12583-2592, an effect of improving the encapsulation rate cannot be obtained for drugs such as gemcitabine.

example 1

[0172]a) Preparation of Oil Phase

[0173]16.6 g, 2.0 g, and 4.3 g of hydrogenated soybean phosphatidylcholine, cholesterol, and an N-(carbonyl-methoxypolyethylene glycol 2000)-1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine sodium salt (hereinafter, also referred to as DSPE-PEG) were respectively taken so as to have a molar ratio of 76 / 19 / 5. Subsequently, 405 mL of an organic solvent (ethanol / ethyl acetate=3 / 1) was added thereto and lipids are dissolved at a heated temperature of 70° C. to obtain an oil phase.

[0174]b) Preparation of Aqueous Phase

[0175]A 4 mM phosphate buffer solution (pH of 7.61) was prepared and used as an aqueous phase.

[0176]c) Preparation of Drug Non-Contained Liposome

[0177]The aqueous phase was heated to 70° C. and the oil phase was added thereto so that the volume ratio of water phase / oil phase=8 / 3, and then, the aqueous phase and the oil phase were mixed using a rotary stirring emulsifier (M Technique Co., Ltd.) at a circumferential speed of 20 m / s at 13,000 rpm...

example 2

[0184]A gemcitabine-contained liposome composition was prepared in the same manner as in the drug loading solution in Example 1 except that the solution was cooled to 40° C. within 5 minutes. The content ratio of the lysophospholipid contained in a lipid forming a liposome with respect to the total amount of phospholipids other than the lysophospholipid contained in the lipid forming the liposome is 0.65 mol %.

Subsequently, 406 mL of an organic solvent (ethanol / ethyl acetate=3 / 1) was added thereto and lipids are dissolved at a heated temperature of 70° C. to obtain an oil phase.

[0196]b) Preparation of Aqueous Phase

[0197]A 4 mM phosphate buffer solution was prepared and used as an aqueous phase.

[0198]c) Preparation of Drug Non-Contained Liposome

[0199]The aqueous phase was heated to 70° C. and the oil phase was added thereto so that the volume ratio of water phase / oil phase=8 / 3, and then, the aqueous phase and the oil phase were mixed using a rotary stirring emulsifier (M Technique Co., Ltd.) at a circumferential speed of 20 m / s at 13,000 rpm for 30 minut...
