Abstract

Abstract of the Disclosure The invention is directed to a stable, liquid or lyophilized preparation for use as a stimulator of the immunological system in human medicine and to method suitable for producing it. The preparation is produced at a pH between 6 and 8 by com-bining splenopentine or splenopentine analogs with a hydroxbenoate ester and is distinguished by an improved and extended stability.

A PREPARATION, WHICH STII~UL~TEES THE IMMllNE
SYSTEM, ~::AN BE APPLIED P~RENTERALL~ AND HAS A LON~i;
SHLF LiFE, ~NS3 METHOl)S FOI:~ PRODlJClNG IT

The invention i~ directed to a prepara~ion, which stimulates the immune sy~tem, is suitable fur parenteral application and has a lon~ shelf life, arld to a method suitable for producing it. It finds application in the pharmaceutical ~ndustry.

Areas of indication for the prepar~ti~n are - immunodeficiency of HIV/AIDS patients;
- restoration of the ahility of the ~m~unological ~ystem to function in cancer patients after chemotherapy or radia~ion therapy;
- paralysis of the immuno]ogical system in the case of organ transpiantation;
restoration of the ability of the immunological system to function a~ter a bone mar~ow transplantation;
- rheumatoid ar~hritis;
pso~iasis with severe joint involvement.

As a rule, peptides are unstable, particularly in aqueous solutions. The hy~rolysis o~ th~ peptldc bonds leads to the splitt}ng of the molecule Int~ ~neffective p~ptidc fra~ment$. Hlgher temperatures, particularly in the presence of water, ]e~d to d~n~tur~ti~n ~nd, with that, t~ the ~ccurr~nce of precipitates, which make paren~

extensive experiment~ are always required irl order t~ develop an indiv~dual, opti-mum formulation, which ensures adequate stab;lity of the prepaIatiorl during thetime period, in which it can bc used.

Like other peptides, ~pienopentine and its analogs ~re unstable. According to monographs and expert, phqrmaceutica] opinion, diacetyl splenopentine hydro-chJoride ~ust be stored under ~rery cool conditions while protected against the effects of light and moisture, Expenence has showrl that the stability decreases in the presence of water or durin~ the Iyophilization.

Preparations with a stimulating effect on the immunolog~cal sy~tem, which have a10ng sheIf life, can be applied parenterally and ars based on sple~opentine or its anal~s, have not pre~ously been known.

It is an object of the invention to p~oduce a stable prepzration, which ha~ a stimu-Iating e~ect on the immunologica~ system, can be appliod parenterally and is ~ased on splenopentine or its ana]ogs.

Tt~e invention is based on the task of providing a prep~ration, which contains splenopentine or its analogs in a parenserally applicable form of lon~ shelf life AS
a stimulator of the immunological system.

Purcuant to the inventioII, this objective is accornplished ~wing to the fact that, whlle usin~ splenopentine or splenopentine an~logs ~nd avoidin~ the p~ecipitation ~an~e, th~ p}~ is adju~ted to B va]Ue bet~cen 6.0 and ~.0 and preferably to a vRIue betw~erl 6.S ~ncl 7.S, preferably diacetyI splenopentine hydrochlorido is used in a c~ncclltratiol1 of 1 t~ m~/mL a~ pcptide snd aqueous solutioI~s of hydro7y~

ben~oate est~rs, in a In~ng ratio of 1: 1 to 10: 1 arld preferably of 5: 1, which sre temp~red to 90~ to 95~, ar~ u~ed as stabilizers. l'he peptide is dissolved in û.l mole~lL of sodium hydroxidç solution and subseq-~en~ly mixcd with the hydro~y-benzoic acid solution, which hss becn tempere~ at 90 to 954C After the p~I ~s adju~ted, the solu~ion is filtered through a 0.2 ~m membrane filter for sterilization and filled into ~ mL ~Inpuls under aseptic conditions. Thc hydroxyben~oa~e esterpreferab~y is tlsed in a concentration of 0.1 to 10 nfg/L.

The peptide preparations, produced according to this procedure, have ~ good st~bility and thus also make a p~renteral app]ication pos~ible.

The use of h~droxybenzoate esters ~s solllbilizers and stabili~er~ for peptide~ is novel and the success is entir~ly surpnsing.

The invelltive solution mskes it possible to improve the stabili~ of an aqueous sollltion and of a corrosponding Iyophilisate, so that limitatiorls are no lon~er required with regard to the storage instructions and the re~ultin~ solutions can be applied even parenter~lly. The limitations imposed on the storage conditions (very cool storage and protection against moisture) for thi~ sctiv~ ingredient1 are nolonger applicable.
