- A variety of methods are known in the art for determining the molecular weight of a polymer. Gel permeation chromatography may be utilized to determine molecular weight as weight average molecular weight (Mw). In addition, number average molecular weight (Mn) may be calculated from 1H NMR spectra. A suitable method may be selected at least in part based on the approximate molecular weight of the polymer. For example, determination of molecular weight from NMR spectra may be suitable where the molecular weight of the polymer is less than about 45 kDa, while gel permeation chromatography may be suitable for polymers having a molecular weight of greater than about 45 kDa.
- An exemplary “gel permeation chromatography” (GPC) method utilizing an Agilent 1100 series liquid chromatography system is described below. The system includes a pump, a solvent degasser, an automated injector, a column oven, and a differential refractive index detector. Agilent Mixed D columns are used with polystyrene calibration standards. Tetrahydrofuran is used as the eluent. Both the columns and the detector are maintained at 30° C. Calibration and calculation of polymer molecular weights are accomplished using the Chemstation® software.
- The GPC method parameters are generally as follows:
- Instrumentation: Agilent 1100 Series LC, equipped with a refractive index (RI) detector and solvent degasser.
- Column Set: Agilent Mixed DC® columns, 300×7.5 mm, Part No. PL1110-6504, two columns in series.
- Eluent: 100% THF, stabilized, B&J Honeywell Cat. No. 341-4.
- Calibrants: Agilent
polystyrene EasiCal PS 2 standards, Part No. PL12010-0601, concentration 0.10% w/v - Sample Preparation: Weigh 0.045 to 0.055 grams of sample into a 20 mL vial and add 10 mL of THF (0.45-0.55% (w/v))
- Instrument Conditions:
-
- System Temperature: 30° C.
- RI Detector: Polarity=positive
- Flow rate: 1.0 mL/min
- Injection Volume: 50 μL
- Run Time: 25 min.
- As discussed above, molecular weights (Mn) may be calculated using “NMR.” As an example, the spectra are obtained on a Bruker NMR spectrometer operating at 300 MHz. Mn is calculated from the integrations of resonances assigned to polymer repeat units and polymer end groups. A sample calculation for a simple poly(DL-lactide-co-glycolide) is shown below. Values of Mn for polymer and copolymers of α-chloro-ε-caprolactone can be calculated in a similar fashion.
- The number of repeat units of DL-lactide (x), the number of repeat units of glycolide (y) and the value of the degree of polymerization (DP), and the value of Mn from x and y are calculated from resonances assigned to polymer repeat units and polymer end groups. The structure below shows, the NMR assignments for the copolymer.
- A=Intensity of 2 protons for Lactide Polymer (PLA) at 5.2 ppm
- B=Intensity of 4 protons for Glycolide Polymer (PGY) at 4.95 ppm
- C=Intensity of 2 (OCH2) protons for the 1-dodecanol end group between 4.0 and 4.2 ppm
- D=Intensity of 3 (CH3) protons for the 1-dodecanol end group between 0.80 and 0.95 ppm
- The values of x, y, DP, and Mn are calculated using the values of the integrals from the NMR spectrum, A, B, and C:
-
x=(A/2)/(C/2)=NC -
y=(B/4)/(C/2)=B/2C -
DP=x+y -
Mn(Da)=144.13*x+116.07*y+186.34 - where 144.13 is the formula weight of DL-lactide in grams per mole, 116.07 is the formula weight of glycolide in grams per mole, and 186.34 is the formula weight of the 1-dodecanol residue in grams per mole.
- Calculation of x, y, DP, and Mn using A, B, and D:
-
x=(A/2)/(D/3) -
y=(B/4)/(D/3) -
DP=x+y -
Mn(Da)=144.13*x+116.07*y+186.34 - where 144.13 is the formula weight of DL-lactide in grams per mole, 116.07 is the formula weight of glycolide in grams per mole, and 186.34 is the formula weight of the 1-dodecanol residue in grams per mole.
- As used herein, the term “zero shear viscosity” means viscosity at zero shear rate. A skilled artisan would be able to determine zero shear viscosity by measuring viscosity at low shear rate (e.g., around 1 sec−1 to 7 sec−1) using a plate and cone viscometer (e.g., Brookfield Model DV-III +(LV)) and then extrapolating a plot of viscosity versus shear rate to a shear rate of zero at a temperature of interest.

- Additional information related to the disclosure outlined above is now provided.
- Complexes
- The complexes of the present disclosure may be formed based on non-covalent interaction (e.g., electrostatic, steric, hydrogen bonding, and van der Waals interactions) between a functionalized polymer including ionizable repeat units and/or ionizable end groups as described herein and a pharmaceutically active agent. The complex may be a salt. Ideally, the complex reduces the solubility of the pharmaceutically active agent in the depot and/or in the body to prolong drug release. The complex may also increase the stability of the pharmaceutically active agent, e.g., the radiation stability of the pharmaceutically active agent, either alone or when present in a depot. In addition to reducing the solubility, the complex achieves a vastly increased molecular weight such that its diffusion coefficient is reduced to slow movement of the pharmaceutically active agent. The solubility of the complex and its mobility in the environment can be further modulated by the molecular weight of the complexing polymer and the hydrophilic/hydrophobic nature of the polymer.
- In some embodiments, the complex has a solubility of less than 0.01 mg/mL in water at 25° C. at pH 7.4.
- Functionalized Polymers for Complexes
- To form the complexes of the present disclosure, functionalized polymers having positively or negatively charged groups (or ionizable groups which may be ionized to positively or negatively charged groups) are provided. Functionalized polymers having positively charged groups (or ionizable groups which may be ionized to positively charged groups) are generally used to form complexes with negatively charged pharmaceutically active agents and functionalized polymers having negatively charged groups (or ionizable groups which may be ionized to negatively charged groups) are generally used to form complexes with positively charged pharmaceutically active agents. Thus, in some embodiments the functionalized polymer has a net positive charge (or is ionizable to provide a net positive charge). In other embodiments, the functionalized polymer has a net negative charge (or is ionizable to provide a net negative charge). In some embodiments, the at least one ionizable side group is covalently bound to a precursor or intermediate polymer through click chemistry to provide the functionalized polymer, for example the at least one ionizable side group is covalently bound to the precursor or intermediate polymer through click chemistry catalyzed with copper to provide the functionalized polymer.
- In some embodiments, the ionizable repeat units of the functionalized polymer comprise one or more ionizable side groups that comprise an optionally substituted heteroarylene ring, for example a 1,2,3-triazole ring.

In some embodiments, the functionalized polymer is not derived from amino acid monomers. Thus, in some embodiments, the functionalized polymer is not a polyamino acid.
- Examples of ionizable side groups include, but are not limited to, ammonium, carboxylate, hydrazinium, guanidinium, sulfate, sulfonate, phosphonate and phosphate.
- The percentage of repeat units making up a functionalized polymer which include at least one ionizable side group may vary. For example, the percentage of repeat units making up a functionalized polymer and which include at least one ionizable side group may be 100%, 50%, 25%, or 12.5%. The percentage of repeat units making up a functionalized polymer and which include at least one ionizable side group may range from 10% to 90%, such as 20% to 80%, 30% to 70%, or 40% to 60%.
- Accordingly, in some embodiments a complex according to the present disclosure, prepared using functionalized polymers such as those described herein, includes a functionalized polymer, the functionalized polymer including repeat units, the repeat units including ionizable repeat units including at least one ionizable side group, a plurality of the at least one ionizable side groups forming a plurality of non-covalent bonds with the pharmaceutically active agent, wherein at least 10% of the repeat units comprise at least one ionizable side group, e.g., at least 20%, at least 30%, at least 40%, at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 80% or at least 90%.
- In some embodiments, less than 100% of the repeat units comprise at least one ionizable side group. In some embodiments, the % of the repeat units comprising at least one ionizable side group ranges from 10% to 90%, e.g., 20% to 80%, 30% to 70%, or 40% to 60%. In some embodiments, the % of the repeat units comprising at least one ionizable side group ranges from 10% to 20%, 20% to 30%, 30% to 40%, 40% to 50%, 50% to 60%, 60% to 70%, 70% to 80%, 80% to 90%, or 90% to 100%.
- The weight average molecular weight of the functionalized polymers is not particularly limited and may range for example from 1000 Daltons to 200,000 Daltons, as measured by gel permeation chromatography, e.g., from 2000 Daltons to 50,000 Daltons, from 1000 Daltons to 100,000 Daltons, from 1000 Daltons to 50,000 Daltons, from 1000 Daltons to 40,000 Daltons, from 1000 Daltons to 30,000 Daltons, from 1000 Daltons to 25,000 Daltons, from 1000 Daltons to 20,000 Daltons, from 1000 Daltons to 10,000 Daltons, or from 1000 Daltons to 5000 Daltons.

The repeat units may comprise repeat units of the formula (I) wherein m is an integer from 1 to 5. The repeat units may comprise repeat units of the formula (I) wherein one of the R1s and R2s is a ionizable side group and all of the remaining R1s and R2s are not ionizable side groups. The repeat units may comprise repeat units of the formula (I) wherein m is 5, one R1 is a ionizable side group and all of the remaining R1s and R2s are hydrogen. Such repeat units can readily be provided using the methods described herein by using a caprolactone derivative as a monomer when preparing the functionalized polymer.
- The ionizable side group in the formula (I) may comprise a positively charged side group or a negatively charged side group (or a side group which ionizes to a positively charged or negatively charged side group). For example, the charged side group may comprise ammonium, carboxylate, hydrazinium, guanidinium, sulfate, sulfonate, phosphonate and phosphate.
- The ionizable side group in the formula (I) may comprise an optionally substituted heteroarylene ring. For example, the ionizable side group may have the formula (II):

- In some embodiments, the functionalized polymer is a homopolymer of repeat units of formula (I). Alternatively, the functionalized polymer is a copolymer comprising at least two different repeat units. For example, each of the at least two different repeat units in copolymer may be of formula (I) (but with different m, R1 and/or R2s).
- In some embodiments, the functionalized polymer includes one or more repeat units. For example, the functionalized polymer may include 1 to 10 repeat units, such as 1 to 7 repeat units, including 1 to 5 repeat units, or 1 to 3 repeat units. In some instances, the functionalized polymer includes 1 to 3 repeat units, such as 1 repeat unit, 2 repeat units or 3 repeat units. The repeat units may be any of the repeat units as described herein. Embodiments that include 1 repeat unit may also be referred to as monomers rather than a polymer. In some instances, the functionalized polymer may include repeat units where each repeat unit is of the same formula, e.g., a homopolymer of the same repeat unit. For example, the functionalized polymer may include 2 repeat units where each repeat unit is of the same formula. In some instances, the functionalized polymer includes 3 repeat units where each repeat unit is of the same formula. In other embodiments, the functionalized polymer is a copolymer that includes at least two different repeat units. For instance, the functionalized polymer may include 2 repeat units, where the repeat units are different repeat units. In some cases, the
functionalized polymer incldues 3 repeat units, where two repeat units are of the same formula and the third repeat unit is of a different formula. In some instances, the functionalized polymer includes 3 repeat units where each repeat unit is of a different formula. In embodiments that includes repeat units with different formulae, different arrangements (i.e., permutations) of the repeat units are possible. For example, in embodiments that include 2 repeat units with different formula (e.g.,repeat unit 1 and repeat unit 2), the 2 repeat units may be arranged in the polymer as: (repeat unit 1)-(repeat unit 2); or (repeat unit 2)-(repeat unit 1). Similarly, in embodiments that include 3 repeat units where two repeat units are of the same formula and the third repeat unit is of a different formula (e.g.,repeat unit 1,repeat unit 1 andrepeat unit 2; orrepeat unit 1,repeat unit 2 and repeat unit 2), the 3 repeat units may be arranged in the polymer in one of 6 different permutations: - (repeat unit 1)-(repeat unit 1)-(repeat unit 2);
- (repeat unit 1)-(repeat unit 2)-(repeat unit 1);
- (repeat unit 2)-(repeat unit 1)-(repeat unit 1);
- (repeat unit 1)-(repeat unit 2)-(repeat unit 2);
- (repeat unit 2)-(repeat unit 1)-(repeat unit 2); or
- (repeat unit 2)-(repeat unit 2)-(repeat unit 1).
- Similarly, in embodiments that include 3 repeat units where each repeat unit is of a different formula (e.g.,
repeat unit 1,repeat unit 2 andrepeat unit 3, the 3 repeat units may be arranged in the polymer in one of 6 different permutations: - (repeat unit 1)-(repeat unit 2)-(repeat unit 3);
- (repeat unit 1)-(repeat unit 3)-(repeat unit 2);
- (repeat unit 2)-(repeat unit 1)-(repeat unit 3);
- (repeat unit 2)-(repeat unit 3)-(repeat unit 1);
- (repeat unit 3)-(repeat unit 1)-(repeat unit 2); or
- (repeat unit 3)-(repeat unit 2)-(repeat unit 1).
- The repeat units in the examples above (e.g.,
repeat unit 1,repeat unit 2 and repeat unit 3) may be any of the repeat units as described herein. In certain embodiments, the functionalized polymer includes an optional ionizable group between the repeat units, such that a repeat unit is linked to an adjacent repeat unit through a linking ionizable unit. In these instances, the optional linking ionizable unit may be selected from ammonium, carboxylate, hydrazinium, guanidinium, sulfate, sulfonate, phosphonate and phosphate. - An example of a functionalized polymer is poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) with amine pendant groups capable of complexing with a pharmaceutically active agent (shown below in salt form):

Syringeability and injectability may be characterized by the time it takes to inject a known volume of the pharmaceutical composition through a syringe of known size fitted with a relatively small gauge needle, e.g., a 1-5 mL syringe fitted with a needle having a gauge of about 21 to about 27. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions of the present disclosure may be characterized as having good syringeability and injectability based on their ability to be injected through a 1 ml syringe fitted with an approximately 0.5 in needle having a gauge of about 21 to about 27, wherein a 0.5 ml volume of the pharmaceutical composition can be injected in less than 25 sec (e.g., less than 20 sec., less than 15 sec, less than 10 sec, or less than 5 sec) at 25° C. with the application of a 5 to 10 lb-force. In some embodiments, under the above conditions, the pharmaceutical composition can be injected in a range of from about 1.5 sec to about 25 sec, e.g., from about 1.5 sec to about 20 sec, from about 1.5 sec to about 15 sec, from about 1.5 sec to about 10 sec, or from about 1.5 sec to about 5 sec.
- In addition to good injectability and syringeability as described herein, in some embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions of the present disclosure demonstrate minimal burst and sustained delivery of pharmaceutically active agent over time. “Minimal burst” may be characterized in terms of Cmax/Cmin, wherein the acceptable Cmax/Cmin upper limit may vary depending on the pharmaceutically active agent to be delivered. In some embodiments, the weight % of pharmaceutically active agent released as burst over the first 24 hours is less than 30% of the total amount released over one week, e.g., less than 20% or less than 10%, of the total amount released over one week. For example, the weight % of pharmaceutically active agent released as burst over the first 24 hours may be less than about 30%, less than about 20%, less than about 20%, or less than about 10%, of the total amount released over one week. In some embodiments, the weight % of pharmaceutically active agent released as burst over the first 24 hours is less than 10% of the total amount released over one month, e.g., less than 8% or less than 5%, of the total amount released over one month. For example, the weight % of pharmaceutically active agent released as burst over the first 24 hours may be less than 10% to about 8% or from about 8% to about 5%, of the total amount released over one month. In some embodiments, the Cmax to Cmin ratio of the pharmaceutically active agent, as measured over 28 days, 21 days, 14 days, or 7 days after administration, may range from 2 to 40, such as from 5 to 30, or 10 to 20. In some embodiments, the Cmax to Cmin ratio of the pharmaceutically active agent, as measured over 7 days after administration, may be less than 10, less than 5, less than 4, or less than 2. As used herein, “sustained delivery” refers to durations which are at least several fold, e.g., at least 5 fold to at least 10 fold, longer than the duration obtained from a single dose of an immediate-release (IR) formulation of the same pharmaceutically active agent (determined by Adsorption, Distribution, Metabolism, and Excretion (ADME) characteristics of the pharmaceutically active agent itself).
- As mentioned above, the disclosed biodegradable compositions provide for sustained release of the pharmaceutically active agent in-vivo with minimal burst effect in addition to possessing good injectability, syringeability and chemical stability as discussed above. This is an unexpected and surprising result as currently available formulations generally provide either controlled release or injectability/syringeability but not both. For example, commercially available depot formulations may rely on the formation of an extremely viscous polymer matrix to provide controlled release of a pharmaceutically active agent. However, such formulations have poor injectability/syringeability due to the viscous nature of the depot. Alternatively, other commercially available formulations utilize vehicles which may have good injectability/syringeability due to a high-solvent content but poor control over release of the pharmaceutically active agent. Moreover, one would expect a low viscosity liquid composition such as those disclosed herein to have poor release kinetics in the form of a substantial burst effect and an exponentially declining delivery profile. Contrary to this expectation, the present compositions demonstrate low burst effect and good control over release of the pharmaceutically active agent over a period of one day to one month or longer.
- Administration of Pharmaceutical Compositions
- As discussed previously herein, the disclosed compositions typically possess low viscosity along with good injectability and syringeability making them well suited for delivery via a syringe (e.g., a 1-5 mL syringe) with a needle, e.g., 18 gauge to 27 gauge, such as a narrow gauge needle, e.g., 21 to 27 gauge. In addition, the pharmaceutical compositions may also be delivered via one or more pen injectors or needleless injectors known in the art.
- The pharmaceutical formulations of the present invention allow for low injection volume. For instance, the injection volume may be less than 1 mL, such as less than 750 μL, less than 500 μL, or less than 250 μL.
- Suitable routes of administration include, but are not limited to, subcutaneous injection and intramuscular injection. Suitable routes of administration also include, for example, intra-articular and intra-ocular, e.g., intra-vitreal, administration for local delivery.
- The pharmaceutical compositions disclosed herein may also find use in oral compositions, e.g., compositions delivered in a gel-cap (soft or hard) or as a mouthwash.
- The compositions of the present disclosure may be formulated such that a desired pharmacological effect is achieved via administration on a periodic basis. For example, the compositions may be formulated for administration on a daily, weekly or monthly basis.
- The actual dose of the pharmaceutically active agent to be administered will vary depending on the pharmaceutically active agent, the condition being treated, as well as the age, weight, and general condition of the subject as well as the severity of the condition being treated, and the judgment of the health care professional. Therapeutically effective amounts are known to those skilled in the art and/or are described in the pertinent reference texts and literature.
- For example, in the case of proteins and peptides pharmaceutically active agents, the pharmaceutically active agent will typically be delivered such that plasma levels of the pharmaceutically active agent are within a range of about 1 picomole/liter to about 1 micromole/liter, such as about 5 picomoles/liter to about 1 nanomole/liter or about 50 picomoles/liter to about 200 picomoles/liter. On a weight basis, a therapeutically effective dosage amount of protein or peptide will typically range from about 0.01 mg per day to about 1000 mg per day for an adult. For example, peptide or protein dosages may range from about 0.1 mg per day to about 100 mg per day, or from about 1.0 mg per day to about 10 mg/day.
- In some embodiments, a suitable low molecular weight compound may be characterized as one which can provide the desired therapeutic effect with a dose of less than or equal to about 30 mg/day as delivered from a depot administered once a week, or a dose of less than or equal to about 10 mg/day as delivered from a depot administered once a month. For example, a suitable low molecular weight compound may be one which can provide the desired therapeutic effect with a dose of less than about 30 mg/day, e.g., less than about 25 mg/day, less than about 20 mg/day, less than about 15 mg/day, less than about 10 mg/day, less than about 5 mg/day or less than about 1 mg/day as delivered from a depot administered once a week. In some embodiments, a suitable low molecular weight compound is one which can provide the desired therapeutic effect with a dose of from about 1 mg/day to about 30 mg/day, e.g., from about 5 mg/day to about 25 mg/day, or from about 10 mg/day to about 20 mg/day as delivered from a depot administered once a week. In some embodiments, the dose may range from 0.1 mg/kg to 10 mg/kg, such as 0.5 mg/kg to 5 mg/kg or 1 mg/kg to 3 mg/kg.
- Similarly, a suitable low molecular weight compound may be one which can provide the desired therapeutic effect with a dose of less than about 10 mg/day, less than about 9 mg/day, less than about 8 mg/day, less than about 7 mg/day, less than about 6 mg/day, less than about 5 mg/day, less than about 4 mg/day, less than about 3 mg/day, less than about 2 mg/day or less than about 1 mg/day as delivered from a depot administered once a month. In some embodiments, a suitable low molecular weight compound may be one which can provide the desired therapeutic effect with a dose of from about 1 mg/day to about 10 mg/day, e.g., from about 2 mg/day to about 9 mg/day, from about 3 mg/day to about 8 mg/day, from about 4 mg/day to about 7 mg/day, or from about 5 mg/day to about 6 mg/day as delivered from a depot administered once a month.
- In some embodiments, the Cmax to Cmin ratio of the pharmaceutical active agent, as measured over 28 days, 21 days, 14 days, or 7 days after administration, typically ranges from 2 to 40, such as from 5 to 30 or 10 to 20, and may be less than 10, less than 5, less than 4, or less than 2.
- In some embodiments, e.g., where the composition may have been in storage for a period of time prior to injection, the composition may be mixed, e.g., via shaking, prior to administration to ensure that the complex comprising pharmaceutically active agent is sufficiently dispersed in the vehicle carrier.
- In some embodiments the pharmaceutical compositions disclosed herein (or components thereof) are sterilized prior to use, e.g., via the application of a sterilizing dose of ionizing radiation. For example, in one embodiment one or both of the complex and pharmaceutical composition as disclosed herein are sterilized with ionizing radiation, e.g., gamma radiation, e-beam radiation, or x-ray radiation.
- One of ordinary skill in the art will be able to determine an appropriate sterilizing dose of radiation based on a variety of factors including, e.g., the type of radiation, the shape, size, and/or composition of the material to be sterilized, the desired level of sterility and the amount of contamination present prior to sterilization. The irradiation may be conducted with the complex or the pharmaceutical composition maintained at from about 0° C. to about 30° C., e.g., from about 5° C. to about 20° C. or about about 10° C. to about 15° C.
- In some embodiments, a suitable dose of sterilizing radiation is a dose of about 10 kGy to about 25 kGy, e.g., about 15 kGy to about 20 kGy.
- In some embodiments, when stored at 2° C., 8° C., or 25° C., the composition maintains a purity of at least 90% or greater (e.g., at least 95% or greater) for a period of at least 24 hours following exposure to gamma irradiation at a dose of about 10 kGy to about 25 kGy, e.g., about 15 kGy to about 20 kGy. For example, the period may be 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, or 2 years. In some embodiments, a purity of at least 90% or greater (e.g., 95% or greater) is maintained for a period of at least one month, e.g., following exposure to gamma irradiation at a dose of about 10 kGy to about 25 kGy, e.g., about 15 kGy to about 20 kGy. For example, the period may be from about one month to about two months, from about two months to about three months, from about three months to about four months, from about four months to about five months, from about five months to about six months, from about six months to about one year, or from about one year to about two years.
- Purity may be determined, for example, based on Reverse Phase High Pressure Liquid Chromatographic (RPLC) analysis of the composition. For example, RPLC spectra for the active agent in the irradiated composition can be compared with RPLC spectra for a USP standard of the active agent. Peak retention times for the active agent in the irradiated composition can be matched to the USP standard for the active agent, and impurity peaks can be subtracted to obtain % purity levels.
- Kits
- A variety of kits may be provided which include one or more components of the pharmaceutical compositions disclosed herein along with instructions for preparing and/or using the same. For example, in one embodiment, a suitable kit may include a vehicle as described herein in a first container and a complex comprising pharmaceutically active agent as described herein in a second container, e.g., in powder form. These components may then be mixed together prior to injection to form a pharmaceutical composition according to the present disclosure. In some embodiments, the first container is a syringe which may be coupled to the second container, e.g., a vial with a luer lock, to provide a mechanism for mixing the vehicle and the complex comprising pharmaceutically active agent. In other embodiments, both the first and second containers are syringes which may be coupled, e.g., via a luer lock, to provide a mechanism for mixing the vehicle and the complex comprising pharmaceutically active agent.
- In another embodiment, the pharmaceutical composition may be provided pre-mixed in a single container, e.g., a single syringe.
- In another embodiment, the pharmaceutical composition may be provided un-mixed in a pre-filled, dual-chamber syringe including a first chamber containing the vehicle and a second chamber containing the complex comprising pharmaceutically active agent. The syringe may be provided such that a user can initiate contact and subsequent mixing of the vehicle and the complex comprising pharmaceutically active agent.
- The instructions for use of the kit and/or kit components may be provided as complete written instructions along with the kit, e.g., as an insert card or printed on the kit packaging; or stored on a computer readable memory device provided with the kit. Alternatively, the kit may include instructions which provide a brief instruction to the user and direct the user to an alternate source for more complete use instructions. For example, the kit may include a reference to an internet site where the complete instructions for use may be accessed and/or downloaded.
- Tissue Engineering and Medical Devices
- In addition to pharmaceutical compositions, the complexes of the present invention may be used for tissue engineering and medical devices. Possible functional groups used for this application include PEGs, peptides, amino acids, amines, guanidiniums, PEGs, etc. For instance, scaffolds made from PCLs modified with the functional groups described above could be of great benefit by imparting greater hydrophilicity and biocompatibility. Active pharmaceutical substances attached as prodrugs to the polymer chains could provide enhanced performance.
- By functionalizing the polymers along the length of the chain, multiple potential interaction sites are created, as opposed to only a few with traditional polymers. For instance, precursor polymers (homopolymers or copolymers) may be synthesized with pendant azide or alkyne groups, and then these precursor polymers may be functionalized with alkyne-containing or azide-containing substrates using “click” chemistry.
- The compositions disclosed herein may find use as coatings for medical devices, e.g., implantable medical devices. Such coatings may be applied, e.g., by dip-coating the medical device prior to implantation.
- As noted above, the compositions disclosed herein may find use as biomaterials in tissue engineering. Tissue scaffolds and other useful structures may be fabricated by various methods including melt spinning, solvent spinning, electrospinning, and 3-D printing. Incorporation of various functional groups could render scaffolds and other structures more hydrophilic, adhesive, and more biocompatible than materials that are currently available.
- Precursor Polymer Synthesis
- In certain embodiments, precursor polymers according to the present disclosure are synthesized by an alcohol-initiated polymerization reaction. For example, monomer starting material (e.g., α-chloro-ε-caprolactone, ε-caprolactone, and the like) may be mixed with an alcohol, e.g., a mono or a poly-functional alcohol, such as but not limited to, 1-dodecanol, 1,6-hexanediol, and the like. In some instances, a catalyst is included in the polymerization reaction. Catalysts suitable for precursor polymer synthesis according to embodiments of the present disclosure include, but are not limited to, stannous 2-ethylhexanoate, stannic chloride dihydrate, and the like. Other catalysts may also be used, such as Lewis acids, alkyl metals, and organic acids. In certain cases, the catalyst is included in the reaction in an amount ranging from 0.01 wt % to 5 wt %, such as 0.05 wt % to 3 wt %, including 0.1 wt % to 1 wt %. In some instances, the catalyst is included in the reaction in an amount of 0.1 wt %. In certain embodiments, the polymerization reaction is heated to a temperature of 100° C. or more, such as a temperature ranging from 100° C. to 200° C., or from 110° C. to 175° C., or from 120° C. to 150° C. In some instances, the polymerization reaction is heated to a temperature of 130° C. In certain embodiments, the polymerization reaction is allowed to proceed for a time period of overnight or longer. For example, the polymerization reaction may be allowed to proceed for 12 hours or more, such as 18 hours or more, or 24 hours or more, or 30 hours or more, or 36 hours or more, or 42 hours or more, or 48 hours or more.
- Examples of precursor polymer synthesis according to the present disclosure are described below in, e.g., Example 1.
- Functional Polymers
- In certain embodiments, precursor polymers as described above may be functionalized, i.e. their functionalizable side groups may be transformed into ionizable side groups to thereby provide the functionalized polymers described herein. Functionalization of the precursor polymers may be performed using any of the various methods and techniques known and available to those skilled in the art. For example, click chemistry reactions may be used to functionalize the precursor polymers. In certain instances, a
Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction (e.g., an azide-alkyne Huisgen cycloaddition reaction) may be used to functionalize the precursor polymers. In some instances, the precursor polymers as described above may include a leaving group, such as a halogen (e.g., chloro, bromo, iodo), a tosyl leaving group, and the like. In some instances, the leaving group may be displaced by an azide moiety (e.g., sodium azide) to form an azido substituted precursor polymer, which may then undergo a click chemistry reaction with an alkyne, such as in aHuisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction as described above. In certain embodiments, a catalyst may be included in the cycloaddition reaction. Catalysts suitable for cycloaddition reactions according to embodiments of the present disclosure include, but are not limited to, copper catalysts, such as copper iodide, and the like. In certain cases, the catalyst is included in the reaction in an amount ranging from 0.01 equiv. to 1 equiv., such as 0.05 equiv. to 0.5 equiv., including 0.1 equiv. to 0.3 equiv. In some instances, the catalyst is included in the reaction in an amount of 0.1 equiv. - The functionalizing typically involves a solvent in which the precursor polymer is soluble. In some embodiments, the solvent used during the functionalizing may comprise at least one member selected from an amide, cyclic amide, chlorinated hydrocarbon, ketone, ether, cyclic ether, polar aprotic, or protic solvent. Such solvents could include, but are not limited to, DMF, NMP, chloroform, dichloromethane (DCM), acetone, tetrahydrofuran (THF), acetonitrile, dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), water, and combinations thereof.
- In many embodiments, the functionalizing comprises an exothermic reaction. In many embodiments, the functionalizing involves cooling and mixing. In some embodiments, the temperature of the functionalizing ranges from 10° C. to 40° C., such as 20° C. to 30° C.
- The purification may comprise dialysis, stirred cell purification, and/or tangential flow filtration. The pH of the purification typically falls within the range of 3 to 10. For instance, purification of amine-containing functionalized polymers often ranges from 4 to 5. The purification of acid-containing functionalized polymers often ranges from 8 to 9.
- Examples of reactions for functionalizing polymers according to the present disclosure are described below in, e.g., Example 2.
- In one specific aspect, there is provided a method comprising: providing a precursor polymer comprising repeat units, the repeat units comprising functionalizable repeat units comprising at least one functionalizable side group; obtaining a functionalized polymer by transforming, using click chemistry, said functionalizable repeat units into ionizable repeat units comprising at least one ionizable side group; and combining the functionalized polymer with a pharmaceutically active agent to form a complex in which a plurality of the at least one ionizable side groups form a plurality of non-covalent bonds with the pharmaceutically active agent. The complex may be a complex as defined elsewhere herein.
- In this aspect, the transforming, using click chemistry, may comprise effecting a cycloaddition reaction. The cycloaddition reaction may be a Diels-Alder cycloaddition reaction. The cycloaddition reaction may be a
Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction. The cycloaddition reaction may be a cycloaddition reaction between an azide and an alkyne to form a linkage comprising a 1,2,3-triazole. - The functionalizable side group may be an azido group and the transforming, using click chemistry, may comprise reacting the precursor polymer with an alkyne to form the functionalized polymer, the functionalized polymer comprising at least one 1,2,3-triazole ring. Alternatively, the functionalizable side group may be a leaving group and the transforming, using click chemistry, may comprise: (a) transforming the leaving group into an azido group and thereby providing a polymer intermediate; and (b) reacting the polymer intermediate with an alkyne to form the functionalized polymer, the functionalized polymer comprising at least one 1,2,3-triazole ring. Examples of leaving group include a halogen (e.g., chloro, bromo, iodo), a tosyl leaving group, and the like. In some embodiments the leaving group is a halogen, for example chloro. The leaving group may be transformed into an azido group by reacting the precursor polymer with sodium azide. The alkyne may be a terminal alkyne.
- In some embodiments, the functionalizable side group may be an alkynyl group and the transforming, using click chemistry, may comprise reacting the precursor polymer with an azide to form the functionalized polymer, the functionalized polymer comprising at least one 1,2,3-triazole ring. The alkynyl group may, for example, be a terminal alkynyl group.
- In some embodiments, the transforming, using click chemistry, comprises a monovalent copper catalyzed reaction or a ruthenium catalyzed reaction. For example, the transforming, using click chemistry, may comprise a monovalent copper catalyzed reaction, wherein a monovalent copper catalyst is provided in the reaction through the ionization of copper iodide or copper bromide.
- In some embodiments, the transforming, using click chemistry, comprises a copper catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction. In some embodiments, the transforming, using click chemistry, occurs at least partially under degassing conditions.
- In some embodiments, the precursor polymer comprises repeat units of the formula (I′):
- wherein m′ is an integer from 1 to 10, and each R1′ and R2′ is independently selected from hydrogen, hydroxyl, optionally substituted alkyl, optionally substituted alkenyl, optionally substituted alkynyl, optionally substituted alkoxy, optionally substituted carbocyclyl, optionally substituted aryl, optionally substituted heterocyclyl, optionally substituted heteroaryl, a ionizable side group, and a functionalizable side group. Such precursor polymers can readily be obtained by polymerization of monomers, such as monomers that are or are derivatives of caprolactone, lactic acid, glycolic acid, lactide, glycolide, butyrolactone, and valerolactone.
- In some embodiments, the precursor polymer comprises functionalizable repeat units of the formula (I′) wherein at least one of the R1′s and R2′s is a functionalizable side group. In some embodiments, the precursor polymer comprises repeat units of the formula (I′) wherein each R1′ and R2′ is independently selected from hydrogen, C1-5 alkyl and a functionalizable side group. In some embodiments, the precursor polymer comprises repeat units of the formula (I′) wherein m′ is an integer from 1 to 5. In some embodiments, the precursor polymer comprises repeat units of the formula (I′) wherein one of the R1′s and R2′s is a functionalizable side group and all of the remaining R1′s and R2′s are not functionalizable side groups.
- In some embodiments, the precursor polymer comprises repeat units of the formula (I′) wherein m′ is 5, one R1′ is a functionalizable side group and all of the remaining R1′s and R2′s are hydrogen. Alternatively or additionally, the precursor polymer may comprise repeat units of the formula (I′) wherein m′ is 5 and all of the R1′s and R2′s are hydrogen.
- In some embodiments, the precursor polymer comprises repeat units of the formula (I′) wherein m′ is 1, R1′ is hydrogen and R2′ is hydrogen. In some embodiments, the precursor polymer comprises repeat units of the formula (I′) wherein m′ is 1, R1′ is methyl and R2′ is hydrogen. In some embodiments, the precursor polymer comprises repeat units of the formula (I′) wherein m′ is 2, the R1′ and R2′ alpha to the carbonyl group in formula (I′) are each hydrogen, the R1′ beta to the carbonyl group is methyl and the R2′ beta to the carbonyl group is hydrogen. In some embodiments, the precursor polymer comprises repeat units of the formula (I′) wherein m is 3 and all of the R1′s and R2′s are hydrogen. In some embodiments, the precursor polymer comprises repeat units of the formula (I′) wherein m′ is 4, and all of the R1′s and R2′s are hydrogen. In some embodiments, the precursor polymer comprises repeat units of the formula (I′) wherein m is 3, the R1′ and R2′ alpha to the carbonyl group in formula (I′) are each hydrogen, the R1′ and R2′ beta to the carbonyl group are each hydrogen, and the R1′ gamma to the carbonyl group is methyl and the R2′ gamma to the carbonyl group is hydrogen.
- In some embodiments, the functionalizable group is selected from a leaving group, an azido group or an alkynyl group.
- In some embodiments, the precursor polymer is a homopolymer of repeat units of formula (I′) wherein at least one of the R1′s and R2′s is a functionalizable side group. In other embodiments, the precursor polymer is a copolymer comprising at least two different repeat units. For example the precursor polymer may be a copolymer wherein each of said at least two different repeat units is of formula (I′) and wherein at least one of said at least two different repeat units has a formula (I′) in which at least one of the R1′s and R2′s is a functionalizable side group.
- In some embodiments, synthesis of the functionalized polymers involves click chemistry. In other embodiments, the synthesis of functionalized polymers does not involve click chemistry. Thus, in some embodiments, the ionizable groups may be included in the functionalized polymer using click chemistry. Alternatively, the ionizable groups may be added via non-click chemistry routes.
- Copper Catalyzed Click Chemistry
- Monovalent copper catalyzed “click chemistry” cycloaddition reactions may be used to functionalize polymers with ionizable side groups to provide functionalized polymers capable of forming complexes with pharmaceutically active agents as described herein. In some embodiments, ionizable side groups are bonded to precursor polymers via a monovalent copper catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction. The monovalent copper catalyst may be provided in the reaction through the ionization of copper iodide or copper bromide.
- Other Metal Catalysts
- Cu is not the only metal capable of catalyzing this type of cycloaddition. As long as the metal is or can become coordinatively unsaturated, other metals known to form stable acetylides may also be employed. Exemplary metals that can form stable acetylides include Cu, Au, Ag, Hg, Cd, Zr, Ru, Fe, Co, Pt, Pd, Ni, Rh, and W. It is a matter of finding the right metal/ligand combination.
- Catalysis of Ligation Reaction by Metallic Container: Metallic containers can also be used as a source of the catalytic species to catalyze the ligation reaction. For example, a copper container (Cu0) may be employed to catalyze the reaction. In order to supply the necessary ions, the reaction solution must make physical contact with the copper surface of the container. Alternatively, the reaction may be run in a non-metallic container, and the catalytic metal ions supplied by contacting the reaction solution with a copper wire, copper shavings, or other structures. Although these reactions may take longer to proceed to completion, the experimental procedure is relatively simple.
- Alternative Reducing Agents: Metals may be employed as reducing agents to maintain the oxidation state of the Cu (I) catalyst or of other metal catalysts. Preferred metallic reducing agents include Cu, Al, Be, Co, Cr, Fe, Mg, Mn, Ni, and Zn. Alternatively, an applied electric potential may be employed to maintain the oxidation state of the catalyst.
- Cu(I) Salt Used Directly: If Cu(I) salt is used directly, no reducing agent is necessary, but acetonitrile or one of the other ligands indicated above should be used as a solvent (to prevent rapid oxidation of Cu(I) to Cu(II) and one equivalent of an amine should be added (to accelerate the otherwise extremely slow reaction—vide supra). In this case, for better yields and product purity, oxygen should be excluded. Therefore, the ascorbate (or any other reducing) procedure is often preferred over the unreduced procedure. The use of a reducing agent is procedurally simple, and furnishes triazole products in excellent yields and of high purity. For instance, in some cases, the yield of the functionalizing step may range from 40% to 90%, such as 45% to 80% or 50% to 75%. In the exemplary click chemistry synthesis route shown below, an azide (—N3) is placed on the polymer chain and functionalized via click reaction. It may be accomplished in an advantageous “one pot” approach. It is also advantageous in that it negates the need for synthesizing small molecule azides that are potentially explosive.
- Another exemplary click chemistry reaction scheme is shown below:
- In the above reaction scheme, Baeyer-Villiger oxidation was performed on α-chlorocyclohexanone. The crude reaction product may be purified to give desired monomer.
- Also in the above reaction scheme, copolymer was reacted with the “click” reagents to form the desired amine-functionalized complexation polymer.
- The click reaction is typically followed by purification. Purification may involve dialysis, stirred cell, ultrafiltration, and/or tangential flow filtration. The purification may be conducted at various pH, such as from 4 to 9, such as 4 to 5 for amine functionalized polymers, and such as 8 to 9 for acid functionalized polymers.
- Polymer Synthesis via Non-Click Chemistry
- The below exemplary reaction scheme, which does not involve click chemistry, has been used to form a functionalized polymer, i.e., an amine-terminated polymer.
- In some embodiments, a functionalized polymer according to the present disclosure, which is not produced via click chemistry, comprises at least one terminal repeat unit that has the formula (I″).
- wherein m″ is an integer from 1 to 10, each R1″ and R2″ is independently selected from hydrogen, hydroxyl, optionally substituted alkyl, optionally substituted alkenyl, optionally substituted alkynyl, optionally substituted alkoxy, optionally substituted carbocyclyl, optionally substituted aryl, optionally substituted heterocyclyl, optionally substituted heteroaryl, and a ionizable side group; and R3 is an ionizable end group.
- By “terminal repeat unit” is meant a repeat unit that is at the end of the polymer chain. In some embodiments a repeat unit of the formula (I″) is present at both ends of the polymer chain. In some embodiments a repeat unit of the formula (I″) is present at one end of the polymer chain.
- In some embodiments, the chemical identities and combinations of the groups m″ and R1″ and R2″ are as described herein with reference to the formula (I) (i.e., with reference to the groups m and R1 and R2). In some embodiments, the ionizable end group R3 comprises at least one member selected from ammonium, carboxylate, hydrazinium, guanidinium, sulfate, sulfonate, phosphonate and phosphate. Methods for attaching chemical end groups, including ionizable end groups, to polymers are well known in the art and can be adopted in order to prepare the above-described polymers.
- In some embodiments, these functionalized, ionizable end group comprising polymers find use in the formation of complexes with relatively low molecular weight pharmaceutically active agents, e.g., pharmaceutical active agents having a weight average molecular weight or number average molecular weight ranging from 300 Daltons to 2,500 Daltons, e.g., from 500 Daltons to 2,000 Daltons, or from 1,000 Daltons to 1,500 Daltons, as determined using gel permeation chromatography or NMR spectra respectively.
- Further examples of functionalized polymers made through non-click chemistry techniques include, but are not limited to, poly(L-serine) or poly (L-serine ester) (JACS 1992, 114, 3962-3965; Macromolecules 1990, 23, 3399-3406;
Polymer Bulletin 1990, 24, 349-353); synthetic poly(amino acids) (Kohn, Biodegradable Polymers as Drug Delivery Systems, 1990, 195-229); polycondensation of serinol (J Control Release 2005, 101, 21-34); poly(vinylpyridine) (Sigma Aldrich Part #472352); and poly (vinylamine) analogs (PCT Publication No. WO 1998/018833). - Preparation of Complexes
- In certain embodiments, functionalized polymers as described above may form a complex with a pharmaceutically active agent. In some instances, the pharmaceutically active agent may be dissolved in a solution. Suitable solvents for dissolving the pharmaceutically active agent include solvents in which the pharmaceutically active agent is soluble. In some cases, the solvent is compatible with the pharmaceutically active agent, such that the solvent is non-reactive with the pharmaceutically active agent and does not cause significant degradation of the pharmaceutically active agent or the product complex. Examples of suitable solvents include water, which may also include a buffer (e.g., NaHCO3). In some instances, the functionalized polymer may be dissolved in a solution. Suitable solvents for dissolving the functionalized polymer include solvents in which the functionalized polymer is soluble. In some cases, the solvent is compatible with the functionalized polymer, such that the solvent is non-reactive with the functionalized polymer and does not cause significant degradation of the functionalized polymer or the product complex. Examples of suitable solvents include water, which may also include a buffer (e.g., NaHCO3), DMSO, NMP, ethyl acetate, and benzyl alcohol.
- In certain embodiments, a solution of the functionalized polymer and the pharmaceutically active agent may be combined to form a complex between the functionalized polymer and the pharmaceutically active agent. In some instances, the complex between the functionalized polymer and the pharmaceutically active agent is less soluble in the complexation solvent than the functionalized polymer and/or the pharmaceutically active agent themselves. The term “complexation solvent” is used herein to differentiate between the solvent or solvents used in the complexation of the functionalized polymer with the pharmaceutically active agent and other solvents described herein, e.g., solvents utilized in a vehicle component of a composition. For instance, the complex between the functionalized polymer and the pharmaceutically active agent may be substantially insoluble in the complexation solvent and form an isolatable precipitate. Isolation of the complex (e.g., separation of the precipitate from the supernatant) may be performed by any convenient isolation method, such as centrifugation, filtration, etc. In certain instances, the isolated complex is dried to form a dried composition of the complexed pharmaceutically active agent. For example, the isolated complex may be dried by any convenient drying method, such as, but not limited to, spray drying, freeze drying (i.e., lyophilization), drying under reduced atmospheric pressure (e.g., drying under vacuum), thin film evaporation, combinations thereof, and the like. In certain instances, the complex is a spray-dried complex. In certain instances, the complex is a lyophilized complex.
- In some embodiments, the formation of the complex occurs at a temperature ranging from 10° C. to 40° C., such as 20° C. to 30° C.
- Examples of the preparation of complexes according to the present disclosure are described below in, e.g., Example 3.

The brownish green polymer solution was dialyzed using Spectra/Por® regenerated cellulose tubing with MWCO=3500 against deionized water for two days, changing thedialysate 3 times. The polymer solution was then lyophilized until dry. The green polymer was then dissolved in methanol and stirred with Marathon TM C cation exchange resin for 3 hours. The resin was filtered out, and the methanol was removed via rotary evaporation. To the polymer residue was added purified water, causing the polymer to precipitate. Ammonium hydroxide was added dropwise until the polymer went into solution; the final pH was 8.

The DMF was largely removed via rotary evaporation, and the polymer was precipitated into water as a dark green semi-solid. The polymer was washed several times with fresh water and dried under vacuum overnight. The polymer was then dissolved in a 1:1 mixture of acetone/water and dialyzed using Spectra/Por® regenerated cellulose tubing with MWCO=1000 against 1:1 acetone/water. The dialysate was replaced after 5 hours, and dialysis continued overnight. The dialysate was then replaced with fresh water, and within minutes, polymer began to precipitate within the membrane. The solution was drained from the dialysis tube, shell-frozen at -6° C., and placed under vacuum. After 7 days, the polymer appeared to be dry, but was still dark green and insoluble in most common organic solvents. Assuming it was still impure, the polymer was dissolved in 0.01 N HCl, and the solution color began to change from dark green to amber almost immediately. This solution was dialyzed in MWCO=3500 dialysis tubing against 0.01 N HCl for two days, changing thedialysate 4 times. The polymer solution was then freeze-dried for two days until dry. - The precursor polymer utilized in this example was the 44.0 kDa Mw polymer prepared according to the method described in Example 1F above.
- A solution of intermediate poly(α-chloro-ε-caprolactone-co-ε-caprolactone) in DMF (4 mL solvent/g polymer) was evacuated and back-filled with nitrogen five times. Sodium azide (NaN3, 1.2 equiv.) was added and stirred overnight at room temperature via a magnetic stir bar. The presence of a new organic azide moiety was confirmed by FT-IR (at 2104 cm−1). The flask was cooled to 0° C. in an ice bath and was evacuated and back-filled with nitrogen five times. Under a stream of nitrogen, propargyl alcohol (1.0 equiv.) and triethylamine (0.1 equiv.) were added sequentially. The flask was again evacuated and back-filled with
nitrogen 5 times then copper iodide (0.1 equiv.) was added, followed by one additional evacuate/back-fill cycle. The reaction stirred at 0° C. for 1 hour, then overnight at room temperature under nitrogen. FT-IR confirmed the disappearance of the organic azide peak at ˜2104 cm−1, indicating the reaction was complete. The contents of the flask were centrifuged and the green supernatant decanted off; the solid bed was washed with ample DMF, centrifuged again, and the supernatants were combined. The DMF was largely removed via rotary evaporation, and the thick green oil was suspended in water. The flask was rotated in a warm water bath overnight, but the polymer did not dissolve. The water was poured off, and dissolution was attempted in chloroform, acetonitrile, tetrahydrofuran, and acetone. Each time, the polymer did not dissolve. The polymer eventually dissolved in NMP, and the solution was transferred to a beaker and treated with SiliaMetS® Thiol resin overnight. The resin was filtered out, and the polymer solution was transferred to Spectra/Por® dialysis tubing with MWCO=3500. The material dialyzed against NMP for 5 hours. The dialysate was discarded and replaced with purified water and dialyzed for 2 days. At this point, much of the polymer had begun to precipitate as a sticky substance and was leaking out of the dialysis membranes. What remained in the dialysis tubes was poured into a Virtis jar and lyophilized for 1 week until dry. - A solution of intermediate poly(α-chloro-ε-caprolactone) in THF (4 mL solvent/g polymer) was evacuated and back-filled with nitrogen five times. Sodium azide (NaN3, 1.2 equiv.) was added and stirred overnight at room temperature via a magnetic stir bar, but no organic azide peak (2100 cm−1) appeared. The reaction vial was transferred to a tumbler and tumbled to effect more efficient mixing, but still no azide peak appeared. The reaction was heated to 40° C. and shaken every hour by hand, but after 6 hours, no azide peak could be observed in the FT-IR. The reaction was discarded. While not intending to be bound by any particular theory, it was proposed that NaN3 is not sufficiently soluble in THF to react with the chlorinated polymer.
- To a solution of intermediate poly(α-chloro-ε-caprolactone) in THF (4 mL solvent/g polymer) was added purified water (10:1 THF:water). The vial was evacuated and back-filled with nitrogen five times. Sodium azide (NaN3, 1.2 equiv.) was added and stirred overnight at room temperature via a magnetic stir bar, but no organic azide peak (2100 cm−1) appeared. The reaction vial was transferred to a tumbler and tumbled to effect more efficient mixing, but still no azide peak appeared; the sodium azide clumped together with the water and was not free-flowing in the reaction vial. The reaction was heated to 40° C. and shaken every hour by hand, but after 6 hours, no azide peak could be observed in the FT-IR.

- PK profiles for liraglutide complexed with amine-functionalized copolymers are provided in
FIGS. 13 and 14 . Dosing rates (mg/kg) varied across the test groups and among animals within a given test group. Accordingly, the plasma data provided inFIGS. 13 and 14 has been dose rate normalized to allow a fairer comparison of the performance of the formulations. -
FIGS. 13 and 14 provide geometric mean data for the aqueous and BB:PLA vehicle suspensions of the liraglutide-counter-ion complexes, respectively. A clear progression emerges in the ability of the counter-ions to control the dissolution of the complexes in aqueous suspension: AFCP2 >AFCP1>Zn2+/protamine (FIG. 13 ). - A progression also emerges in the contribution of the depot vehicle (or complex+vehicle) to overall control of peptide delivery: AFCP2<AFCP1<Zn2+/protamine (
FIG. 14 ). - These data suggest preliminarily that an aqueous suspension of Lira:AFCP2 would be an adequate formulation for weekly delivery.
-
FIG. 14 emphasizes that the contribution the BB:la-PLA 90:10 (%, w/w) vehicle makes to the control of liraglutide delivery depends strongly on the particular complex suspended in the vehicle. The vehicle makes a strong contribution in the case of the Zn2+/protamine complex, a moderate contribution for AFCP1, and a small (though important) contribution for AFCP2. - Using iv bolus data, the absolute BA of liraglutide obtained from these formulations was calculated up to the last time point for which quantifiable data were available for each animal. These results are provided in
FIG. 15 . Except for several animals, BA was generally <12%, which is consistent with results obtained in rats for several liraglutide formulations that comprised free peptide suspended in vehicles comprising sucrose acetate isobutyrate (absolute BA ranged from 5-28%). - Histopathological assessment of skins from the rats injected in Example 15 was performed using standard procedures. In general, there was minimal to mole inflammation present in the deep dermis in all groups at both the vehicle and active sites. This indicates that there is some nonspecific local multifocal inflammation induced by all of the vehicles and the test article. There were also low numbers of small granulomas present in the deep dermis in a few animals in most groups in both the vehicle and active groups. These are considered to be a resolving foreign body reaction or granuloma formulation reaction to the test and vehicle articles. This indicates that both the test article and the various vehicles alone or with test article will induce a small local foreign body reaction or granuloma formation particularly in
Groups - The precursor polymer utilized in this Example was the 31.8 kDa polymer prepared according to the method described in Example 1B above.
- A solution of the precursor poly(α-chloro-ε-caprolactone-co-DL-lactide) in DMF (4 mL solvent/g polymer) was evacuated and back-filled with nitrogen five times.

AFCP-3 and AFCP-5 each exhibited a complexation efficiency between 30% and 50%. As shown, AFCP-4 did not form a complex under these conditions. Without intending to be bound by any particular theory, it is possible that the relatively low level of amine substation in AFCP-4 was insufficient for complexation with hGH.FIG. 17 shows the complexation efficiency of AFCP-2 with hGH at various w/w ratios. As shown, ratios of 1:1 and 1:2 resulted in over 92% of the hGH precipitated. - The results of the in vitro dissolution analysis are provided in

- Materials and Methods
- Active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) including Liraglutide (Bachem, >99% pure), Human Growth Hormone (HGH, Biosolutions, >95% pure), Poly (AGLT) Bromide (Sigma, >99% pure) and Insulin (Sigma, >95% pure) were obtained from their respective vendors and dissolved ammonium bicarbonate buffer (pH˜8) in appropriate concentrations. Amine-functionalized complexable polymer (AFCP-2) and carboxyl-functionalized complexable polymer (CFCP-5) were synthesized and dissolved in MilliQ water in appropriate concentrations (10-20 mg/mL). The APIs were mixed with the complexable polymers at a ratio of 1:1, 1:4 or 1:10. The instantaneous precipitation was separated from reaction media (ammonium bicarbonate in water) and dried via lyophilization. The dried powder or the dried powder suspended in Benzyl Benzoate were loaded either in glass vial or plastic syringes (Intervene) and packed in aluminum pouches. These samples were exposed to gamma radiation (12.5 kGy-17.5 kGy) for more than 8 hrs at room temperature with radiation indicator sticker (Sterigenics, Corona, Calif.). These gamma irradiated samples were then analyzed for purity using reverse phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) in reference to non-gamma irradiated samples.
- Results
- The results of the stability analyses are provided in
FIGS. 24-27 . The above active agents each showed good stability following exposure to 15 kGy gamma radiation as evidenced by the relative lack of degradants shown in the RPLC spectra. As seen in the Figures, non-complexed APIs such as Liraglutide, HGH, Poly(AGLT) bromide (Glatiramer bromide) and Insulin degraded faster (with a corresponding reduction in potency) after 15 kGy gamma irradiation. These APIs complexed either with AFCP or CFCP showed Gamma irradiation stability (1 kGy) as seen inFIGS. 24-27 . RPLC spectra for the uncomplexed, non-irradiated APIs are provided inFIGS. 28 and 29 . - The foregoing embodiments and advantages are merely exemplary and are not to be construed as limiting the present invention.
