Has wide application prospect.

Description

Oroxylin and sorafenib combined anti-tumor drug and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of antitumor drugs, and particularly relates to a combined antitumor drug containing oroxylin and sorafenib and application thereof.
Background
Oroxylin A is one of active components of radix Scutellariae, has obvious antitumor effect, and is a natural antitumor drug with wide application prospect. However, oroxylin has wide pharmacological action, the mechanism of the anti-tumor action of oroxylin is not completely clarified at present, and documents show that oroxylin can play the anti-tumor action by inducing apoptosis of tumor cells and also has the action of inhibiting growth of tumor blood vessels.
At present, first-line medicaments for treating liver cancer in clinic are mainly targeted medicaments of sorafenib, chemical medicaments of 5-fluorouracil, adriamycin and the like. However, these drugs have large toxic and side effects and are easy to develop drug resistance. It is known that sorafenib doses of 400mg or less than 400mg twice daily are well tolerated. When doses reached 600mg and 800mg twice daily, there was a significant increase in skin and gastrointestinal toxicity. The dose-limiting toxicity of 800mg twice daily was III degree diarrhea and fatigue, and the dose-limiting toxicity of 600mg twice daily was III degree rash. Most patients receiving 600-800 mg twice daily eventually lose to 400mg due to adverse reactions. Thus, the maximum tolerated dose for oral administration of sorafenib was 400mg twice daily. The treatment effect and the toxic and side effect of the sorafenib are closely related to the dosage, and the toxic and side effect is small if the dosage is low; however, lowering the dose may also result in a reduction in the therapeutic effect. How to improve the anti-tumor effect of sorafenib under low dose is a technical problem to be solved urgently.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the effective amount of sorafenib in the combined antitumor drug composition is less than 400 mg/day for human patients, such as 100-.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, the effective amount of oroxylin in the combined anti-tumor pharmaceutical composition is less than 1800 mg/day, such as 200-.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, wherein sorafenib may be in the form of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, such as hydrochloride, phosphate, formate, acetate, citrate, maleate, malate, mesylate, benzensulfonate, and the like.

Examples of antioxidants useful in the present invention include, but are not limited to, sodium sulfite, sodium bisulfite or sodium metabisulfite, or a combination of two or more thereof.
The invention also provides application of the combined anti-tumor medicine in preparing a medicine for treating cancer. Preferably, the cancer is liver cancer.
Advantageous effects
Oroxylin is a natural medicinal component, has wide source, is easy to obtain, and has no obvious toxic or side effect on human bodies. The invention remarkably improves the anti-tumor effect of the low-dose sorafenib by combining the oroxylin and the sorafenib, and does not generate obvious inhibition effect on the weight of a subject. Therefore, the lower dose of sorafenib can reduce the toxic reaction, and the combined use of oroxylin can improve the curative effect, and the combined use mode can play a larger role in the future tumor treatment.
Specifically, in a mouse liver cancer model, the oroxylin (300mg/kg) and the sorafenib (60mg/kg) are jointly administrated, so that the tumor inhibition rate can be effectively increased, the tumor inhibition rate of human liver cancer cell HuH-7 nude mouse transplanted tumor reaches 71.02%, and the tumor inhibition rate is increased by 19.06% compared with that of the individual use of 60mg/kg of sorafenib. Compared with a blank control group, the sorafenib 120mg/kg group has significant influence on the weight of the experimental animal, and other groups have no statistical difference on the influence on the weight of the experimental animal.
