Python can not use vtable based COM interfaces without C++ glue code.
This means you will probably need to write a PythonCOM extension
module.  There are tools we use to automate that process - the 2 that
exist now are SWIG (slightly modified) and a tool included in the
win32com package (win32com.makegw).
