The present invention relates to a nanoparticle of oxaliplatin, which is a water-soluble active substance, a pharmaceutical composition containing the same, and a method for preparing an orally administrable oxaliplatin nanoparticle by emulsifying a lipid mixture solution wherein a solid lipid and a surfactant are mixed in an aqueous mixture solution wherein oxaliplatin and a specific cosolvent are mixed and then removing the solid lipid and the cosolvent using a supercritical fluid gas. By providing oxaliplatin, which is currently available only in injection form for parenteral administration, in the form of a nanoparticle, the present invention allows for the development of orally administrable oxaliplatin which is stable against gastric acid and has improved bioavailability, thereby improving patient compliance through avoiding the inconvenience of injection and greatly reducing medical cost. Since the oxaliplatin nanoparticle can be prepared economically using a relatively inexpensive supercritical fluid producing facility, it can be prepared via a simple process with high yield in commercial scale. |
