Technical Field
The present invention is in the field of nanoparticle manufacture for delivery of drug nucleic acid payloads.
Background
Delivery of bioactive agents (including therapeutically relevant compounds) to a subject is often hampered by the difficulty of the compound reaching the target cell or tissue. In particular, the transport of many bioactive agents into living cells is greatly limited by the complex membrane systems of the cells. These limitations can result in the need to use much higher concentrations of bioactive agents than are required to achieve the results, thereby increasing the risk of toxic and side effects. One solution to this problem is to use specific carrier molecules and carrier compositions that allow selective entry into cells. Lipid carriers, biodegradable polymers, and various conjugate systems can be used to improve delivery of bioactive agents to cells.
One class of bioactive agents that is particularly difficult to deliver to cells are biologic therapeutic agents (including peptides, proteins, nucleosides, nucleotides, polynucleotides, nucleic acids, and derivatives such as mRNA, RNAi/siRNA, and self-replicating RNA agents). In general, nucleic acids are stable in cells or body fluids for only a limited duration. In particular, the development of CRISPR/CAS9, RNA interference, RNAi therapies, mRNA therapies, RNA drugs, antisense therapies, gene therapies, and nucleic acid vaccines (e.g., RNA vaccines) has increased the need for effective means of introducing active nucleic acid agents into cells. For these reasons, compositions that can stabilize and deliver nucleic acid-based agents into cells are of interest.
The most well studied method for improving the transport of foreign nucleic acids into cells involves the use of viral vectors or formulations with cationic lipids. Viral vectors can be used to efficiently transfer genes into some cell types, but they are generally not used to introduce chemically synthesized molecules into cells.
An alternative approach is to use a delivery composition incorporating a cationic lipid that interacts with the bioactive agent at one part and interacts with the membrane system at another part. Depending on the composition and method of preparation, such compositions are reported to provide liposomes, micelles, lipid complexes or lipid nanoparticles (for reviews see Felgner,1990,Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews,5,162-187;Felgner,1993,J.Liposome Res, 3-16; gallas,2013, chem. Soc. Rev.,42,7983-7997; falsini,2013, J.Med. Chem. Dx. Doi. Org/10.1021/jm400791q; and references therein).
Since the first description of liposomes by Bangham (J.mol. Biol.13, 238-252) in 1965, there has been continued attention and effort to develop lipid-based carrier systems for delivery of bioactive agents (Allen, 2013,Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews,65,36-48). The method of introducing functional nucleic acids into cultured cells by using positively charged liposomes is described first by Philip Felgner et al Proc.Natl.Acad.Sci., USA,84,7413-7417 (1987). The method was later demonstrated in vivo by K.L. Brigham et al, am.J.Med.Sci.,298,278-281 (1989).
Recently, lipid nanoparticle formulations have been developed and show efficacy in vitro and in vivo. (Falsini, 2013, J.Med. Chem. Dx. Doi. Org/10.1021/jm400791q; morrissey,2005, nat. Biotech.,23,1002-1007; zimmerman,2006, nature,441, 111-114; jayaraman,2012, angew. Chem. Int. Ed.,51, 8529-8533.) lipid formulations are attractive carriers because they can protect biomolecules from degradation while improving their cellular uptake. Among the various classes of lipid formulations, cationic lipid-containing formulations are commonly used to deliver polyanions (e.g., nucleic acids). Such formulations may be formed using only cationic lipids and optionally include other lipids and amphiphilic molecules such as phosphatidylethanolamine. It is well known in the art that the composition of lipid formulations, as well as the method of their preparation, all affect the structure and size of the resulting nanoparticle or aggregate (Leung, 2012,J.Phys Chem.C,116,18440-18450).
Various methods of formulating LNP systems containing genetic drugs have been developed. These methods include mixing a preformed LNP with a nucleic acid in the presence of ethanol or mixing a lipid dissolved in ethanol with an aqueous medium containing the nucleic acid and producing an LNP having a diameter of 100nm or less and a nucleic acid encapsulation efficiency of 65% -95%. These methods all rely on the presence of cationic lipids to achieve encapsulation of the Oligonucleotides (OGNs) and poly (ethylene glycol) (PEG) to inhibit aggregation and form larger structures. The properties of the resulting LNP system, including size and OGN encapsulation efficiency, are sensitive to various formulation parameters such as ionic strength, lipid and ethanol concentrations, pH, nucleic acid concentration, and mixing ratio. In general, parameters such as relative lipid and nucleic acid concentrations at the time of mixing and mixing ratios are difficult to control using current formulation procedures, resulting in variations in the characteristics of the LNP produced inside the formulation as well as between formulations.
Among the covd-19 vaccines, several are immunogens encoded based on mRNA delivered in Lipid Nanoparticles (LNP). This higher proportion of mRNA vaccine is due to its rapid implementation and excellent efficacy in animal models. In mRNA vaccines, the immunogen is encoded in an mRNA sequence that is typically substituted with an immunosilent nucleoside. In addition to nucleoside substitutions, mRNA design often involves codon optimization, UTR and polyA tail design, 5' cap selection and purification to remove double stranded RNA contaminants that can activate the innate immunosensor to inhibit translation of the delivered mRN.
The antibody titers in the covd-19 mRNA vaccinated patients were higher than the convalescence serum, while the neutralization titers were comparable to the convalescence in the published trial. In both experiments cd4+ and cd8+ T cell responses were present and Th2 components were absent, th2 components being critical due to the potential role of Th2 responses in vaccine-related enhanced respiratory diseases.
However, local and systemic adverse events are common and more frequent as severity increases after the second vaccination. Although there were no serious life threatening adverse events, in some trials, the highest dose was stopped due to serious local and systemic adverse events. Self-amplified mRNA LNP is effective at lower doses, but has additional safety concerns.
FDA guidelines suggest that success in phase 3 trials requires 50% protection compared to placebo based on the endpoint of severe covd-19 disease. Vaccines will need to be manufactured cheaply to obtain about 150 hundred million doses and supply most people worldwide. Meeting a combination of these 3 criteria would be challenging. For example, 50% protection is provided for 1 year, billions of doses are manufactured annually and are available and willing to vaccinate the global population.
If the current dose is successful in a clinical trial, the increased efficacy may reduce the dose and adverse effects while maintaining efficacy, and increase the ability to vaccinate worldwide by reducing costs and increasing manufacturing capacity. Alternatively, if the current dose fails in a clinical trial, the increased efficacy at these same doses may increase protection. Thus, there is a great need to increase efficacy by protecting mRNA vaccines through payload mRNA expression, immunogenicity, and by controlling LNP assembly.
Despite advances in the development of methods for LNP systems containing genetic drugs, there remains a need for methods for preparing lipid nanoparticles containing therapeutic materials, and improved lipid nanoparticles containing therapeutic materials. The present invention seeks to meet this need and provide further related advantages.

Quantilum recombinant luciferase standard curves were prepared in 5-fold serial dilutions in 10% EMEM. 3.9x10 -5 mg/ml to 4.88x10 -3 50ul of standard spots in the mg/ml range were included in the microwell plate as positive enzymesAn activity control (data not shown) was used to maintain linearity of 107 RLU/mg/ml. ONE-Glo substrates previously conditioned to room temperature for at least 4 hours were added to each untransfected, transfected and Quantilum well at a 1:1 ratio.

B) LNP produced at higher mix concentrations (total lipid concentration in mM at mix shown above animals) and diluted to a constant 5 μg dose in 50 μl of IM injection was more effective (color bars are emissivity in 107p/sec/cm 2/sr). C) Zeta potential measurements revealed a greater increase in protonation when the pH was reduced from 7.4 to 5 for LNP prepared by high concentration mixing, indicating greater endosomal release.
Detailed Description
Disclosed herein are methods of increasing the efficacy of nucleic acid-loaded lipid nanoparticles by certain novel and unexpectedly superior LNP manufacturing techniques. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions containing LNPs manufactured according to the manufacturing methods described herein.
The methods disclosed herein overcome the major technical challenges and high costs associated with previous LNP manufacturing techniques. Thus, the methods disclosed herein greatly improve the industrial production of LNP in an unexpected manner, thereby providing a more efficient LNP for nucleic acid delivery.
One embodiment of the invention disclosed herein is a method showing increased LNP efficacy due to increased mixed concentrations of lipids and mRNA during assembly.
The methods disclosed herein are applicable to any ionizable lipid and nucleic acid payload. While not wishing to be bound by any particular mechanism of action, it is believed that increasing LNP potency is mediated by increasing endosomal release and subsequent dissociation of mRNA from ionizable lipids. Furthermore, differences in mixing concentration, changes in charge state, distribution or state of LNP components, in a manner that promotes endosomal escape and mRNA release, result in changes in ultrastructural and ionization properties (ionizable lipids or cholesterol are closer to the LNP periphery, ionizable lipid-mRNA interactions and internal structure changes, a greater proportion of non-protonated ionizable lipids available for endosomal ionization, multilamellar, terminal structure). Preferably, LNPs formed by the methods disclosed herein that deliver nucleic acids (e.g., mRNA encoded immunogens) are more effective, e.g., provide greater protection against viral challenge, than LNPs formed at the same dose at the current low concentrations.

It should be further appreciated that for each of the plurality of possible options listing a given element (i.e., for all "Markush" groups of optional components for any element and the like), the optional components may be present alone or in any combination or subcombination of the optional components in some embodiments. Each combination and sub-combination is implicitly contemplated in the list of forms and is solely for convenience and does not list each such combination or sub-combination. In addition, it is to be further understood that all statements of "or" are to be understood as "and/or" unless the context clearly requires that the listed components are to be considered as merely alternatives (e.g., if the components are mutually exclusive and/or not combinable with each other in a given context).
I. Definition of the definition
The term "lipid" refers to a group of organic compounds that are fatty acid esters and are characterized as insoluble in water, but soluble in many organic solvents. Lipids are generally classified into at least three categories: (1) "simple lipids" including fats and oils and waxes; (2) "complex lipids" including phospholipids and glycolipids; and (3) "derived lipids" such as steroids.
The term "lipid nanoparticle" or "LNP" as used herein refers to particles comprising a plurality, i.e. more than one lipid molecule, physically associated with each other by intermolecular forces. In one embodiment, the LNP is loaded with a nucleic acid payload. LNP may have one or more different types of lipids. The lipid nanoparticle may be, for example, a microsphere (including unilamellar and multilamellar vesicles, e.g., "liposomes" -lamellar phase lipid bilayers, in some embodiments substantially spherical, and may comprise an aqueous core in more particular embodiments, e.g., comprising a substantial portion of an RNA molecule), a dispersed phase in an emulsion, micelles in suspension, or an internal phase.
In some embodiments, the lipid nanoparticle has a size of about 1 to about 2,500nm, about 10 to about 1,500nm, about 20 to about 1,000nm, in one embodiment about 50 to about 600nm, in one sub-embodiment about 50 to about 400nm, in one sub-embodiment about 50 to about 250nm, and in one sub-embodiment about 50 to about 150 nm. Unless indicated otherwise, all sizes mentioned herein are the average size (diameter) of the fully formed nanoparticles as measured by dynamic light scattering on Malvern Zetasizer. The nanoparticle samples were diluted in Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS) to give a count rate of about 200-400kcts. The data are presented as a number weighted average obtained by the transformation of the intensity weighted average. The number weighted average is preferred because it corresponds most closely to the physical diameter of the particles as measured by electron microscopy.
As used herein, "LNP lipid" refers to the individual lipid molecules that form LNP. In certain embodiments, the LNP lipid is an ionizable cationic lipid.
As used herein, the term "cationic lipid" refers to a lipid that is cationic or becomes cationic (protonated) when the pH is reduced below the pKa of the ionizable groups of the lipid present in the LNP (i.e., the pKa of the ionizable lipid in the lipid environment of the LNP that is different from the pKa of the ionizable lipid in the aqueous medium), but is progressively more neutral at higher pH values. At pH values below pKa, the lipid is then able to associate with negatively charged nucleic acids (e.g., oligonucleotides). As used herein, the term "cationic lipid" includes zwitterionic lipids that exhibit a positive charge upon a decrease in pH. Notably, most helper lipids, such as DSPC, are zwitterionic but not cationic, as they have phosphate groups that balance any cationic charge.
The term "cationic lipid" also refers to any of a number of lipid materials that carry a net positive charge at a selective pH, such as physiological pH. Such lipids include, but are not limited to, N-dioleoyl-N, N-dimethyl ammonium chloride (DODAC); n- (2, 3-dioleoyloxy) propyl) -N, N-trimethylammonium chloride (DOTMA); n, N-distearyl-N, N-dimethyl ammonium bromide (DDAB); n- (2, 3-dioleoyloxy) propyl) -N, N-trimethylammonium chloride (DOTAP); 3- (N ', N' -dimethylaminoethane) -carbamoyl) cholesterol (DC-Chol) and N- (1, 2-dimyristoxyprop-3-yl) -N, N-dimethyl-N-hydroxyethyl ammonium bromide (DMRIE). In addition, many commercially available cationic lipid formulations are available for use in the present invention. These formulations include, for example, (commercial cationic liposomes comprising DOTMA and 1, 2-dioleoyl-sn-3-phosphoethanolamine (DOPE), obtained from GIBCO/BRL, grand Island, n.y.); />(commercially available cationic liposomes comprising N- (1- (2, 3-dioleoyloxy) propyl) -N- (2- (spermidine carboxamide) ethyl) -N, N-dimethyl-ammonium trifluoroacetate (DOSPA) and (DOPE), obtained from GIBCO/BRL); and->(commercially available cationic lipids comprising dioctadecyl amidoglycyl carboxy spermine (DOGS) in ethanol, obtained from Promega Corp., madison, wis.). The following lipids are cationic and have a positive charge below physiological pH: DODAP, DODMA, DMDMA 1, 2-dioleyloxy-N, N-dimethylaminopropane (DLinDMA), 1, 2-dioleyloxy-N, N-dimethylaminopropane (DLenDMA).
In some embodiments, the "LNP lipid" is MC3, DLin, and/or KC2, as shown below. The table highlights the pKa of the ionizable lipids measured in LNP (TNS pKa) compared to pKa in aqueous medium predicted by commercial software ACDLabs persistence:

"naLNP" as used herein refers to lipid nanoparticles with a nucleic acid payload produced according to the methods disclosed herein. naLNP has significantly greater efficacy relative to the reference LNP.
As used herein, "reference LNP or refLNP" refers to lipid nanoparticles formed with one or more LNP lipids using a reference LNP manufacturing method. In one embodiment, the reference LNP is a 50-100nm diameter LNP comprising nucleic acid and 4 lipids: ionizable lipids with amine groups (50%), zwitterionic helper lipids-1, 2-distearoyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphorylcholine (DSPC) (10%), cholesterol (38.5%) and pegylated lipids-1, 2-dimyristoyl-rac-glycerol-3-methoxypolyethylene glycol-2000 (DMG-PEG 2000) (1.5%) (molar ratio in brackets). Hydrophilic DMG-PEG forms the outer shell of LNP.
The "reference LNP" is defined by the fact that it is generated by the "reference LNP manufacturing method".
In one embodiment, the "reference manufacturing method" may be summarized as follows:
nucleic acid solution: mRNA at a reference nucleic acid concentration of less than 0.20mg/ml is prepared in a buffer at a concentration and pH, i.e.in 50mM citrate pH 5 or 25mM sodium acetate pH 4, or 10-50mM citrate pH 4.
Lipid solution: preparing a lipid mixture in ethanol at a reference lipid concentration corresponding to the desired NP ratio (5.67) and/or lipid/mRNA weight ratio (10:1 to 30:1)
Assembled refLNP: combining portions of the nucleic acid solution and portions of the lipid solution produces a single mixed solution in the buffer.
Dialyzing refLNP in the mixed solution to physiological pH.
Measurement of refLNP size using light scattering
Measurement of RNA encapsulation in refLNP using Ribogreen assay
Select refLNP with >70% higher encapsulation and diameter of 50-100nm
"mixing" as used herein preferably refers to turbulent mixing ("T-mixing"), vortex mixing ("V-mixing"), microfluidic mixing, or both. See, for example, the blends described in U.S. publication No. 20200306191.
In one embodiment, the reference LNP manufacturing process is the process described in Hassett et al, mol. Ther. -Nucleic Acids 2019,15,1-11. In another embodiment, the "reference manufacturing method" is as described in U.S. application No. 20190032087. In one embodiment, the reference method comprises: (a) Introducing a first fluid stream comprising a therapeutic agent (e.g., a nucleic acid) in a first solvent into the microchannel; wherein the microchannel has a first region adapted to flow one or more fluid streams introduced into the microchannel and a second region to mix the contents of the one or more fluid streams; (b) Introducing a second liquid stream comprising LNP-forming material (e.g., reference LNP lipids) in a second solvent into the microchannel to provide first and second liquid streams flowing under laminar flow conditions, wherein the lipid particle-forming material comprises ionizable lipids, and wherein the first and second solvents are the same or different; (c) Flowing one or more first fluid streams and one or more second fluid streams from a first region of the microchannel into a second region of the microchannel; and (d) mixing the contents of the one or more first fluid streams and the one or more second fluid streams in the second region of the microchannel to provide a third fluid stream comprising lipid particles having encapsulated therapeutic agents.
The contents of the first and second streams may be mixed by chaotic convection in a microfluidic channel or by nano-precipitation in a T-mixer.
In one embodiment, mixing the contents of the one or more first fluid streams and the one or more second fluid streams includes varying the concentration or relative mixing rate of the one or more first fluid streams and the one or more second fluid streams. In the above embodiments, unlike known methods, the method does not include dilution after mixing.
In order to further stabilize the third fluid stream containing lipid particles with encapsulated therapeutic agents, the method may include, but need not further include, diluting the third fluid stream with an aqueous buffer. In one embodiment, diluting the third liquid stream comprises flowing the third liquid stream and an aqueous buffer into the second mixing structure. In another embodiment, an aqueous buffer comprising lipid particles having an encapsulated therapeutic agent is dialyzed to reduce the amount of the second solvent.
The first liquid stream comprises the therapeutic agent in the first solvent. Suitable first solvents include solvents in which the therapeutic agent is soluble and which are miscible with the second solvent. Suitable first solvents include aqueous buffers. Representative first solvents include citrate and acetate buffers. The first solvent may be water alone if the second solvent comprises a protonating agent such as HCl to protonate the ionizable lipids.
The second liquid stream comprises lipid particle forming material in a second solvent. Suitable second solvents include solvents in which the ionizable lipid is soluble and which are miscible with the first solvent. Suitable second solvents include 1, 4-dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, acetone, acetonitrile, dimethylsulfoxide, dimethylformamide, acids and alcohols. Representative second solvents include >50% aqueous ethanol.
In some embodiments, the lipid particles of the present invention are advantageously formed in a microfluidic process that utilizes relatively rapid mixing and higher flow rates. Rapid mixing provides lipid particles with the advantageous properties mentioned above, including size, homogeneity and encapsulation efficiency. The mixing rate used to practice the method of the present invention is in the range of about 100 musec to about 10 msec. Representative mixing rates include from about 1 to about 5msec. Although hydrodynamic flow focusing methods operate at relatively low flow rates (e.g., 5 to 100 μl/min) and relatively low liposome volumes, the methods of the present invention can operate at relatively high flow rates and relatively high liposome volumes. In certain embodiments, for processes incorporating a single mixing zone (i.e., mixer), the flow rate is from about 1 to about 100mL/min. For the present method using an array of mixers (e.g., 10 mixers), a flow rate of 40mL/min (flow rate of 400mL/min for 100 mixers) is used. Thus, the process of the present invention can be easily scaled to provide the amount of lipid particles required for demanding production requirements.
The LNP compositions of the invention disclosed herein can comprise one or more bioactive agents including, but not limited to, antibodies (e.g., monoclonal, chimeric, humanized, nanobodies, fragments thereof, etc.), cholesterol, hormones, peptides, proteins, chemotherapeutic agents, and other types of anti-neoplastic agents, low molecular weight drugs, vitamins, cofactors, nucleosides, nucleotides, oligonucleotides, and enzymatic nucleic acids. Various methods of loading bioactive agents into lipid compositions, such as liposomes and lipid nanoparticles, can be utilized in the art, including both passive and active loading methods. The exact method used may be selected based on a variety of factors including, but not limited to, for example, the bioactive agent to be loaded, the storage method to be used once loaded, the size of the resulting particles, and the intended dosing regimen. Methods include, for example, mechanically mixing the drug and lipid at the time of liposome formation or reconstitution, dissolving all components in an organic solvent and concentrating them into a dry film, forming a pH or ionic gradient to pull the active agent into the liposome interior, establishing transmembrane potential and ionophore-mediated loading. See, for example, PCT publication No. WO 95/08986, U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,837,282; 5,837,282 and 7,811,602.
The term "nucleic acid" refers to ribonucleotides, deoxyribonucleotides, modified ribonucleotides, modified deoxyribonucleotides, modified phospho-sugar-backbone oligonucleotides, other nucleotides, nucleotide analogs, and combinations thereof, and can be single-stranded, double-stranded, or optionally contain portions of both double-and single-stranded sequences. In some embodiments, "nucleic acids" include antisense nucleic acids, triplex forming oligonucleotides, antisense DNA or RNA compositions, chimeric DNA RNA compositions, alleles, aptamers, ribozymes, baits, and analogs thereof, plasmids, and other types of expression vectors and small nucleic acid molecules, RNAi agents, short interfering nucleic acids (siNA), messenger ribonucleic acids (messenger RNA, mRNA), short interfering RNAs (siRNA), double-stranded RNAs (dsRNA), micro-RNAs (miRNA) and short hairpin RNA (shRNA) molecules, peptide Nucleic Acids (PNA), locked nucleic acid ribonucleotides (LNA), morpholino nucleotides, threose Nucleic Acids (TNA), glycol Nucleic Acids (GNA), siRNAs (small internal segment interfering RNA), aiRNAs (asymmetric interfering RNA), and siRNAs with 1, 2 or more mismatches between the sense and antisense strands of related cells and/or tissues such as cell cultures, subjects, or organisms. Such compounds may be purified or partially purified, and may be naturally occurring or synthetic, and may be chemically modified. In one embodiment the bioactive agent is an RNAi agent, a short interfering nucleic acid (siNA), a short interfering RNA (siRNA), a double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), a microrna (miRNA), or a short hairpin RNA (shRNA) molecule. In one embodiment the bioactive agent is an RNA interference (RNAi) agent suitable for mediating RNAi.
As used herein, the term "nucleic acid" is also intended to include any oligonucleotide or polynucleotide. Fragments containing up to 50 nucleotides are commonly referred to as oligonucleotides, and longer fragments are referred to as polynucleotides. In a particular embodiment, the oligonucleotides of the invention are 20-50 nucleotides in length. In the context of the present invention, the terms "polynucleotide" and "oligonucleotide" refer to polymers or oligomers composed of nucleotide or nucleoside monomers consisting of naturally occurring bases, sugars and inter-sugar (backbone) linkages. The terms "polynucleotide" and "oligonucleotide" also include polymers or oligomers comprising non-naturally occurring monomers or functionally similar parts thereof. Such modified or substituted oligonucleotides are generally preferred over the natural form because of the following properties: such as, for example, enhanced cellular uptake and increased stability in the presence of nucleases. Oligonucleotides are classified as deoxyribooligonucleotides or ribooligonucleotides. Deoxyribose oligonucleotides consist of 5-carbon sugars (known as deoxyribose) covalently linked to a phosphate at the 5 'and 3' carbons of this sugar, thereby forming alternating unbranched polymers. Ribooligonucleotides consist of similar repeat structures in which the 5-carbon sugar is ribose. The nucleic acids present in the lipid particles according to the invention include any form of known nucleic acids. The nucleic acid used herein may be single-stranded DNA or RNA, or double-stranded DNA or RNA, or DNA-RNA hybrids. Examples of double stranded DNA include structural genes, genes including control and termination regions, and self-replicating systems such as viral or plasmid DNA. Examples of double stranded RNAs include siRNA and other RNA interfering agents. Single-stranded nucleic acids include antisense oligonucleotides, ribozymes, microRNAs, and triplex-forming oligonucleotides.
In another embodiment the bioactive agent is mRNA. In one embodiment, the nucleic acid is mRNA encoding a COVID-19 protein or peptide.
As used herein, the terms "Pyr", "Pyrd" and "Pyrd" are used interchangeably and refer to pyridine or pyridinyl substituents.
As referred to herein, "efficacy" refers to the ability of an LNP to deliver a nucleic acid payload to a cell or tissue, wherein the LNP internalizes into the cell (or cells in the tissue) and is released from the endosome to the cytoplasm, whereupon the nucleic acid payload is released from the lipid and becomes bioavailable. Efficacy may be measured by any of a number of methods known to those of skill in the art. For example, it may be measured in terms of cellular uptake, nucleic acid payload transcription, nucleic acid payload translation, or production of a polypeptide encoded by a nucleic acid payload. When the nucleic acid payload of an LNP is intended to function in a gene expression inhibition manner such as, for example, RNAi, LNP efficacy can be measured in terms of achieving a target gene "knockdown" by reducing the transcription rate of the target gene, the duration of the mRNA transcript half-life of the gene target, or translation of the mRNA transcript of the target gene. Additional assays for measuring efficacy depend on measuring LNP immunogenicity and LNP systemic distribution. All such assays and their permutations are well known in the art.
In one embodiment, the experiment measuring the effectiveness of the LNP is performed in parallel with the reference LNP. Such experiments may use standardized nucleic acid payloads such as, for example, reporter genes. A reporter gene (often referred to simply as a reporter gene) is a gene that a researcher connects to the regulatory sequences of another gene of interest in bacteria, cell cultures, animals or plants. Such genes are referred to as reporter genes because of their property to confer on the organism expressing them easy to identify and measure, or because they are selective markers. A reporter gene may be used as an indication of whether a certain gene is taken up or expressed in a cell or population of organisms. Typical reporter genes are lacZ, cat, gfp, rfp, luc, which encode β -galactosidase, chloramphenicol acetyl transferase, green fluorescent protein, red fluorescent protein, luciferase, respectively, useful in corresponding histochemistry, acetylation, fluorescence, spectrophotometry, and bioluminescence assays. All such assays and their permutations are well known in the art.
In one embodiment, LNP efficacy is measured in vitro or in vivo at a known dose or doses by luciferase reporter activity. Relative LNP efficacy was determined in vitro or in vivo by a luciferase activity assay. See also, for example, U.S. patent No. 10,221,127.
LNP efficacy can also be measured in terms of a desired biological response of a nucleic acid payload, including, for example, a therapeutic or prophylactic effect or impact on the mechanism of action that produces the response. In some embodiments, LNP efficacy is measured by the ability of LNP to carry mRNA encoding an immunogen, e.g., after administration, to induce the immune system to produce polypeptides of secreted cognate IgG antibodies.
"increased LNP efficacy" refers to the extent to which the nalNP of the present invention has greater efficacy than the reference LNP. In certain embodiments, the LNP of the invention disclosed herein has an LNP potency increase of about or at least 1.25, 1.50, 1.75, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 150, 200, 400, 500, 750, 1000, 10,000 times greater than the reference LNP in the same assay delivering the same nucleic acid cargo.
As used herein, "organic solvent" refers to a type of Volatile Organic Compound (VOC). VOCs are organic chemicals that evaporate at room temperature and are commonly used in the art to dissolve certain materials and substances in the manufacture of pharmaceutical products. Organic solvents are generally used in the manufacture: aromatic compounds such as benzene and toluene, alcohols such as methanol or ethanol, esters and ethers, ketones such as acetone, amines, nitrated and halogenated hydrocarbons.
As used herein, "nitrogen-phosphate" or "NP" ratio is defined as the molar ratio of ionizable lipids to moles of phosphate on the nucleic acid backbone. It should be noted that the number of moles is the total number of moles in the mixed solution, rather than the concentration in the initial nucleic acid or lipid solution that can be mixed in different volume ratios. Note the case of more than one amine per ionizable lipid. Under mixing conditions, typically only one amine is protonated so that the NP ratio is most naturally defined as one amine per ionizable lipid, even when more than one amine is present, as electrostatic binding involves only charged groups. However, some ionizable lipids may have two or more amines that are charged during mixing.
As used herein, a "lipid/nucleic acid weight ratio" is a weight ratio that can be used in place of the NP ratio. The conversion between NP ratio and weight ratio involves the number of bases of the molar mass of ionizable lipids and nucleic acids divided by the molar mass of each phosphate.
In one embodiment, the amount of nucleic acid is expressed by the LNP molar ratio of amine on the ionizable lipid to phosphate groups on the nucleic acid backbone and is typically from about 3 to about 6. In one embodiment, the pKa of the LNP is in the range of about 6 to about 7, corresponding to the pH in early endosomes. The link between pKa of ionizable lipids in LNP and gene silencing efficiency demonstrates that LNP pKa in the range of about 6 to about 7 produces greater silencing of ionizable lipid DLinDMA and is associated with promotion of lipid structure of membrane that can interfere with endosomes. The pKa of LNP can be measured using the fluorescence-enhanced pH dependence of the anionic dye TNS.
As used herein, "cholesterol" refers to a bioactive organic compound having four rings arranged in a particular molecular configuration. The steroid core structure typically consists of seventeen carbon atoms bonded into four "fused" rings: three six-membered cyclohexane rings (rings A, B and C) and one five-membered cyclopentane ring (ring D). Steroids vary depending on the functional group attached to the tetracyclic core and the oxidation state of the ring. Sterols are steroid forms having a hydroxyl group in the third position and a skeleton derived from cholestane. Steroids may also be modified more thoroughly, such as by altering the ring structure, e.g., cutting one ring. Cleavage of ring B produces a ring-opened steroid, one of which is vitamin D3. Examples include lipid cholesterol, the sex hormones estradiol and testosterone, [4]:10-19 and the anti-inflammatory drug dexamethasone. Many steroids are present in plants, animals and fungi. The steroid is preferably produced in the cell from a sterol lanosterol (inverse keratin) or cycloartenol (plant). Lanosterol and cycloartenol are derived from cyclization of the triterpene squalene. In some embodiments, the LNP compositions disclosed herein contain cholesterol derivatives, e.g., dihydro-cholesterol, enantios-cholesterol, epi-cholesterol, chain sterols, cholestanol, cholestanone, cholestenone, cholesteryl-2 '-hydroxyethyl ether, cholesteryl-4' -hydroxybutyl ether, 3. Beta. - [ N- (N 'N' -dimethylaminoethyl) carbamoyl-cholesterol (DC-Chol), 24 (S) -hydroxycholesterol, 25 (R) -27-hydroxycholesterol, 22-oxidized cholesterol, 23-oxidized cholesterol, 24-oxidized cholesterol, cycloartenol, 22-ketosterols, 20-hydroxysterol, 7-hydroxycholesterol, 19-hydroxycholesterol, 22-hydroxycholesterol 25-hydroxycholesterol, 7-dehydrocholesterols, 5.alpha. -cholest-7-ene-3.beta. -ol, 3,6, 9-octan-1-ol-cholesteryl-3 e-ol, dehydroergosterol, dehydroepiandrosterone, lanosterol, dihydrolanosterol, lanosterol, photosterol, gu Gaihua alcohol, calciferol, coprol, cholecalciferol, lupeol, ergocalciferol, 22-dihydroergocalciferol, ergosterol, turnip sterol, tomato base, tomato glycoside, ursolic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid, mycosterol, diosgenin, fucosterol, fecal sterol or fecal sterol, or salts or esters thereof. In some embodiments, the cholesterol or cholesterol derivative is cholesterol, cholesterol succinic acid, cholesterol sulfate, cholesterol hemisuccinate, cholesterol phthalate, cholesterol phosphate, cholesterol valerate, cholesterol acetate, cholesterol oleate, cholesterol linoleate, cholesterol myristate, cholesterol palmitate, cholesterol arachidate, cholesterol phosphorylcholine, and sodium cholate. Other exemplary steroids are disclosed in U.S. publication No. 20200129445.
As used herein, "lipid encapsulation" refers to lipid nanoparticles that provide an active agent or therapeutic agent, such as a nucleic acid (e.g., mRNA), by complete encapsulation, partial encapsulation, or both. In one embodiment, the nucleic acid (e.g., mRNA) is fully encapsulated in the LNP.
LNP manufacturing method
The prior art has heretofore focused on the identity and structure of ionizable lipids as the primary parameters that determine the efficacy of LNP. Secondary parameters include the effect of distinguishing other lipids, such as DSPE, from different cholesterol analogues of DSPC or cholesterol and the molar ratio of 4 lipids.
In addition, the prior art shows that those skilled in the art consider that buffer concentrations should be high enough and pH low enough to highly protonate the ionizable lipids, encapsulating the maximum amount of mRNA (close to 100%) and thus will maximize LNP efficacy.
Furthermore, the prior art teaches that operating mixed solutions with high concentrations of nucleic acids and lipids results in a range of technical problems including insolubility, undesired precipitation, poor mixing, uneven LNP size and different nucleic acid encapsulation rates. In addition, nucleic acid solutions, especially reporter mRNA solutions, having a concentration of greater than 1mg/ml are not commercially available. Even if high concentration solutions are commercially available, performing high concentration mixing several hundred times to test individual concentrations is cost prohibitive. In view of these general assumptions, scientists involved in LNP manufacturing focus on using mixed solutions with low concentrations of nucleic acids and lipids to avoid high test costs, improper precipitation, LNP size non-uniformity, and LNP nucleic acid encapsulation non-uniformity, it is believed that mRNA doses can be adjusted later by concentrating the resulting LNP in solution during downstream processing steps. However, this does not address the fundamental problem of this prior art procedure to produce a low potency LNP.
For example, 0.5ml of high concentration mRNA solution at a concentration of >2mg/ml costs at least $1,500 per mixture to date. To achieve the naLNP disclosed herein, the skilled artisan uses >100 mixtures at a cost of at least $150,000, solely for the preparation of the nucleic acid solutions disclosed herein, without regard to other costs. In addition to the expense of producing a highly concentrated nucleic acid solution, high concentrations have heretofore been considered to result in insolubility, aggregation, precipitation, and/or poor mixing.
In addition, applicants decided that using high nucleic acid concentrations resulted in lower encapsulation efficiency, e.g., about 70% in naLNP compared to about 90% in refLNP. However, the inventors have unexpectedly found that even with substantially lower encapsulation efficiency, the naLNP disclosed herein has greater LNP efficacy than refLNP.
Applicants developed highly controlled and reproducible in vitro FLuc assays that allow comparison of experimental results to determine naLNP efficacy under the same conditions (cell numbers, etc.), internal recombinant quatileum standards, and the same refLNP for each experiment.
The applicant further believes that increasing endosomal release and/or looser binding of mRNA by the unprotonated portion of the ionizable lipid favors better endosomal release and/or that a more peripheral distribution of ionizable lipid or nucleic acid, e.g. mRNA, in the LNP is heretofore unknown.
However, the following unexpected findings are disclosed herein: LNP efficacy is strongly affected by the absolute concentration of nucleic acid: lipid mixture while maintaining a constant NP or weight ratio.
The data presented herein indicate that both the absolute concentration of nucleic acid and the buffer concentration and pH at the time of mixing strongly influence LNP efficacy and that these two influence interactions. A significant variable mediating this interaction is the level of protonation of the ionizable lipids during mixing, which should not be maximized in order to maximize encapsulation, as previously thought. Indeed, according to the methods disclosed herein, the level of protonation of the ionizable lipids should be at a level that maximizes the effectiveness of the LNP.
In a general embodiment, the present invention encompasses an enhanced method of manufacturing lipid nanoparticles, wherein lipid nanoparticle delivery efficiency is dependent on ionizable lipid ionization and alkyl tail structure.
In certain embodiments, LNP with high delivery efficiency is of paramount importance in the success of current COVD-19mRNA vaccines from BioNTech/Pfizer and Moderna. In certain embodiments, the LNP in these vaccines contains 4 lipids, namely the ionizable lipids, helper lipids DSPC, cholesterol, and PEG lipids, which automatically assemble with mRNA sequences into nanoparticles with diameters of about 60 nm. In certain embodiments, the protonated form of the ionizable lipid electrostatically binds to the anionic phosphate backbone of the mRNA to encapsulate it in the LNP, while the DSPC forms a peripheral bilayer containing a PEG-lipid tail with a hydrophilic PEG domain toward the aqueous medium. In certain embodiments, the ionizable lipid functions to facilitate endosomal release by protonating when the endosomal pH drops below 7, then interacting with the endosomal membrane to turn it on and release mRNA. In certain embodiments, the ionizable lipid in the LNP has a pKa in the range of 5 to 7.4 to release RNA prior to endosome-lysosomal fusion. In certain embodiments, the alkyl tail of the ionizable lipid must also be incompatible with the endosomal bilayer to destabilize it. For the current ionizable lipids, this latter requirement is achieved by a tapered branching structure.
In certain embodiments, the invention also contemplates methods of rationally designing LNP ionization for endosomal release by predicting the pKa of the LNP from the structure of the ionizable lipid. In certain embodiments, the pKa of the LNP is lower than the pKa of the ionizable lipid due to the difference in proton solvation energy in the LNP as compared to the aqueous phase. In certain embodiments, this allows for rational design of novel ionizable lipids (C2C 4) with 3 protonatable nitrogen, providing increased endosomal protonation and mRNA translation. In certain embodiments, C24LNP was found to be 10X superior to MC3 LNP, which is a standard reference LNP, in terms of immunogenicity for mRNA encoding SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, and resulted in greater protection against infection. In certain embodiments, LNP rational design methods are extended by developing models that use ionizable lipid structures to predict LNP ionization and the ability of ionizable lipids to interfere with endosomal membranes and release mRNA.
In certain embodiments, the delivery efficiency is dependent on the mRNA-LNP manufacturing process. In certain embodiments, mRNA-LNP is manufactured via a self-assembly process using a microfluidic or larger scale T-mixer, wherein 4 lipids in ethanol are rapidly mixed with mRNA in a low pH buffer. In certain embodiments, formation of mRNA LNP occurs via electrostatic binding of the protonated cationic ionizable lipid to the anionic mRNA phosphate backbone, followed by separation of the lipid from the aqueous phase to form nanoparticles that are stabilized by a hydrophilic PEG interface. In certain embodiments, many factors may vary during the manufacturing process, including, but not limited to, absolute and relative concentrations of lipids and mRNA, buffer type, concentration and pH thereof, ratio of organic to aqueous phase, and flow rate. We found that increasing the absolute concentration of lipid and mRNA together, without changing the relative concentration, generally increased the delivery efficiency of the resulting mRNA LNP by 4X (fig. 34). In certain embodiments, the invention encompasses methods of increasing these mixed concentrations, e.g., by 6X to 75mM total lipid and 1.5mg/ml mRNA, resulting in an increase in delivery efficiency of 4X at the same dose in vitro and in vivo (fig. 34B). By measuring the zeta potential increase at pH7.4 to 5 we found that compared to LNP assembled under standard conditions These more potent LNPs exhibited a 2-fold greater increase in zeta potential (fig. 34C). Without being bound by theory, this result indicates that the improved efficacy is due in part to the greater level of unprotonated ionizable lipids in the LNP increasing endosomal internalization. In certain embodiments, mRNA LNP is assembled in a buffer-free environment. In certain embodiments, instead of using a low pH buffer in the mRNA solution to protonate the ionizable lipids after mixing, HCl is added to the lipid mixture prior to mixing with the mRNA in unbuffered water to pre-protonate the ionizable lipids. In certain embodiments, TLC-MS and 1 h NMR was used to confirm that no lipid degradation occurred. In certain embodiments, C24 ionizable lipids with 3 nitrogens are used, and 0.25 protons are added per ionizable lipid, we average protonate 1 nitrogen on every 4 lipids such that the protonated nitrogen is at a 1:1 ratio to the phosphoric acid of the mRNA (NP ratio of 4). In certain embodiments, the bufferless assembly method results in greater efficacy in vivo for both IM and IV administration by IVIS than using buffer, both methods using higher lipid and mRNA mixed concentrations. In certain embodiments, the bufferless, high absolute lipid/mRNA concentration assembly method can thereby produce a more efficient LNP of 10X, but without altering the composition of the final formulation, as compared to current manufacturing methods using low concentration and low pH buffers. In certain embodiments, the pre-protonation method targets specific levels of ionizable lipids more precisely than buffers that are inherently fast and heterogeneous processes that require convection and diffusion to contact and protonate the lipids. In certain embodiments, the manufacturing process achieves a high potency LNP that is easily implemented at all manufacturing scales and using both microfluidic and T-mixing geometries.
In certain embodiments, the method of manufacture comprises the step of protonating the ionizable lipid prior to mixing with the unbuffered mRNA. In certain embodiments, the ionizable lipid can be protonated with HCL, DCL, a weak acid, ethanol, water, or any of the solvents described herein. In certain embodiments, protonation occurs separately prior to mixing with other lipids or with the entire lipid mixture.
In certain embodiments, hydrochloric acid is used to directly protonate the ionizable lipid stock itself prior to mixing with other lipids into a lipid mixture or to protonate the ionizable lipid once mixed in the lipid mixture. This unbuffered preprotonated ionizable lipid in the lipid mixture is then mixed with an unbuffered mRNA solution. In certain embodiments, 100% protonation means that for each mole of ionizable lipid in the solution, one mole of HCL is added to protonate the nitrogen in the ionizable lipid. To protonate multiple nitrogens in the multiprotein ionizable lipid, a corresponding mole of HCL is added to protonate each nitrogen.
In general embodiments, the improved methods for preparing naLNP disclosed herein can be summarized as follows:
nucleic acid solution: nucleic acid at a nucleic acid concentration is provided in a buffer at a buffer concentration and at a nucleic acid solution pH.

In some embodiments, the mixed solution has a total lipid mixed concentration of about or at least 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 100, 150, 175, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450, 500, 750, 800 mM.
In some embodiments, the mixed solution has a mixed buffer concentration of about or at least 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 100, 150, 175, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450, 500 mM.
In some embodiments, the buffer, e.g., sodium acetate buffer, concentration in the mixed solution is optimized to maximize efficacy at any particular mixed concentration. For example, example 13 shows that LNP efficacy increases by 44% relative to the reference LNP when sodium acetate is reduced from 50mM to 25mM at 1.5mg/ml mRNA in the nucleic acid solution. Reducing the sodium acetate concentration from 25mM to 10mM increases LNP efficacy by about 2.2X at an mRNA concentration of 0.25mg/ml in the nucleic acid solution. The increase in the mixing concentration and the optimized decrease in the buffer concentration resulted in an encapsulation efficiency of about 70% lower than that typically obtained in the prior art method, wherein encapsulation was erroneously maximized by decreasing the mixing concentration and increasing the buffer concentration as in example 10. LNPs produced according to the methods disclosed herein are unexpectedly and significantly more efficient (e.g., 5-10X) than LNPs produced according to the reference LNP manufacturing methods, albeit with slightly lower encapsulation efficiency (e.g., 60% -80% compared to 80% -100%).
In some embodiments, the mixed solution is at a pH of about or at least 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5, 6, 6.5, 7, 7.5, 8, 8.5, 9, 9.5, 10, 10.5, 11, 11.5, 12, 12.5, 13, 13.5, 14.
In some embodiments the desired "nitrogen-phosphate" or "NP" ratio is about: 1:100, 1:75, 1:50, 1-25, preferably 2:10, more preferably 3:6.
In some embodiments the desired lipid/nucleic acid weight ratio is about: 1:1 to 1000:1, preferably 5:1-100:1, more preferably 10:1-30:1.
In some embodiments, increasing the mRNA concentration in the nucleic acid solution from 0.05mg/ml mRNA to 1.5mg/ml mRNA at a constant NP ratio of 4 in 50mM sodium acetate pH 4 results in an increase in LNP efficacy of about 10X compared to a 1.5mg/ml to 0.05mg/ml mixed concentration tested at the same dose in cells (fig. 8A) and animals (fig. 9C IM and IV administration). Low mRNA concentrations in the range of 0.05mg/ml to 0.1mg/ml LNP indicate LNP produced according to the reference LNP manufacturing method. Preferably, the method of the invention allows mixing to occur at about or above 0.20mg/ml of mRNA, at which point a greater increase in LNP efficacy is observed.
In one embodiment, the method of manufacture is set as follows:
nucleic acid solution: mRNA is prepared at a plurality of concentrations ranging from 0.05 to 3mg/ml in a single buffer, e.g.25 mM sodium acetate buffer, at pH 4. As a general rule, the buffer selection and pH herein should be selected to obtain a pH about 1 point lower than the pKa of the LNP produced during mixing to obtain about 70% encapsulation. For example, when 2 volumes of nucleic acid solution are mixed with 1 volume of lipid solution, mixing with 1.5mg/ml of mRNA in 25mM NaOAc at pH 4 at 75mM total lipid concentration (37.5 mM KC2 or MC3 concentration) to produce KC2 or MC3 of NP 4 with pKa = -6.5 results in a mixed solution consisting of 16.7mM sodium acetate, 67% H2O in 1mg/ml mRNA (3.1 mM phosphate group), 12.5mM KC2 and 33% Ethanol (ETOH) at a mixed pH of 5.5.
Lipid solution: for each of the mRNA solutions described immediately above in connection with nucleic acid solution preparation, a lipid mixture is prepared in ethanol or another suitable solvent at a plurality of concentrations corresponding to the desired NP ratio or lipid/mRNA weight ratio.
naLNP was assembled at the above-described multiple mixed concentrations with mRNA in a single buffer type, concentration and pH.
Bringing naLNP to physiological pH.
Measurement of naLNP size using light scattering
RNA encapsulation in naLNP was measured using Ribogreen assay
Accept naLNP with >40% encapsulation
Luciferase activity is measured in vitro or in vivo at a known dose or doses.
The relative naLNP potency compared to refLNP is determined by luciferase activity measured in vitro or in vivo.
In another embodiment, naLNP potency can be optimized at any given mixing concentration by adjusting mRNA buffer type, concentration, and pH during mixing to change mixing pH and ionizable lipid protonation level:
nucleic acid solution: mRNA was prepared at one concentration (i.e., in the range of 0.05 to 3mg/ml described above) in a range of buffer types (sodium acetate, sodium citrate, etc.), buffer concentrations (1-100 mM) and pH (3-7). For any particular mixing concentration, the selected buffer should produce an encapsulation efficiency that spans the range of 40% -90%, which may correspond approximately to that which may be achieved The level of protonation of the ionized lipids (40% -90%) and thus consists of 33% ETOH/67% H 2 The pH of the O-buffer and thus the type of buffer, concentration and pH.
Lipid solution: for the mRNA solutions described directly above in connection with nucleic acid solution preparation, the lipid mixture is prepared in ethanol or another suitable solvent at a concentration corresponding to the desired NP ratio or lipid/mRNA weight ratio.
naLNP was assembled in a single mix concentration in the above-described multiple buffers.
Bringing naLNP to physiological pH.
Measurement of naLNP size using light scattering
RNA encapsulation in naLNP was measured using Ribogreen assay
Accept naLNP with >40% encapsulation
Luciferase activity is measured in vitro or in vivo at a known dose or doses.
Relative naLNP potency was determined by luciferase activity measured in vitro or in vivo.
For any particular naLNP formulation, an increase in potency of at least or about 10X relative to a reference LNP produced by a reference LNP manufacturing method can be obtained by appropriate optimization of the concentration of nucleic acid solutions and lipid solutions and thus mixed solutions and mRNA buffer concentration and pH according to the methods disclosed herein.
In some embodiments, the buffer is completely absent from the nucleic acid solution and the ionizable lipid is directly protonated by controlled addition of an acid, such as HCl, to the lipid solution lipid mixture, as shown in example 10. The latter achieves a defined level of protonation in the lipid mixture before mixing with the mRNA in water and can produce an encapsulation level (70%) similar to that found to be optimal when sodium acetate is used.
In one embodiment the two liquids are combined by mixing. For example, mixing is microfluidic mixing by chaotic convection. In another embodiment, T-junction mixing can be used on a larger scale, thereby producing LNP-like.
Microfluidic devices provide the ability to controllably and rapidly mix fluids on the nanoliter scale with precise control over temperature, residence time, and solute concentration. Control and rapid microfluidic mixing was previously applied to the synthesis of inorganic nanoparticles and microparticles and can outperform macro-scale systems for large-scale production of nanoparticles. Microfluidic two-phase microdroplet technology is used to create monodisperse polymer particles for drug delivery or to create larger vesicles for encapsulating cells, proteins or other biomolecules. In some embodiments, hydrodynamic flow focusing, a common microfluidic technique, is used to provide rapid mixing of reagents to produce monodisperse liposomes of controlled size. This technique has also proven suitable for the production of polymeric nanoparticles, where smaller, more monodisperse particles are obtained and the degree of encapsulation of small molecules is higher than in mass production methods.
In one embodiment, at least or about 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 or more lipids are dissolved in an organic solvent such as ethanol while the nucleic acid is in a pH 3-6, preferably 4 acetate buffer. The two streams meet in a common microfluidic channel and are forced to mix within a few milliseconds before being expelled into an aqueous receiving well. Upon mixing, two events occur: 1) While mixing with anionic mRNA, initially neutral ionizable lipids contact low pH buffers and become protonated, thus forming electrostatic bonds between cationic lipids and anionic nucleic acids; and 2) the lipid becomes insoluble in the main aqueous buffer and encapsulates the mRNA. The pH in the final well containing PBS is typically 6-6.5 due to a mixture of acetic acid, PBS and ionizable lipids, all of which are buffers with a certain buffering capacity and initial pH.
In some embodiments, naLNP dialyzes against PBS to raise the pH to about 7.4 and remove ethanol. LNP assembly continues during dialysis, when ionizable lipids with LNP pKa approaching 6.5 become progressively neutralized to ph7.4 and thus less soluble, triggering fusion of LNP, increasing in size and transforming the aqueous electronically transparent core into an electronically dense core containing mainly ionizable lipids and nucleic acids.
In one embodiment, the total amount of lipid provided by the present invention in the administered composition is from about 2 to about 100mg lipid/mg bioactive agent (e.g., RNA), in another embodiment from about 5 to about 25mg lipid/mg bioactive agent (e.g., RNA), in another embodiment from about 7 to about 25mg lipid/mg bioactive agent (e.g., RNA), and in one embodiment from about 10 to about 20mg lipid/mg bioactive agent (e.g., RNA).
Pharmaceutical compositions and methods
The LNP of the invention can be used to deliver therapeutic or prophylactic agents to cells in vitro or in vivo. In particular embodiments, the therapeutic agent is a nucleic acid, which is delivered to a cell using the nucleic acid-lipid particles of the invention. The methods and compositions can be readily adapted to deliver any suitable therapeutic agent for the treatment of any disease or disorder that would benefit from such treatment.
In certain embodiments, the invention provides methods for introducing nucleic acids into cells. Preferred nucleic acids for introduction into cells are mRNA, siRNA, miRNA, immunostimulatory oligonucleotides, DNA plasmids, antisense and ribozymes. These methods may be performed by contacting the particles or compositions of the invention with a cell for a period of time sufficient for intracellular delivery to occur.
The nucleic acids for use in the present invention may be prepared according to any available technique. For mRNA, the primary method of preparation is, but is not limited to, enzymatic synthesis (also known as in vitro transcription), and currently represents the most efficient method of producing long sequence-specific mRNA. In vitro transcription describes a template-directed process of synthesizing an RNA molecule from an engineered DNA template comprising an upstream phage promoter sequence (including, for example, but not limited to, sequences from T7, T3, and SP6 coliphage) linked to a downstream sequence encoding a gene of interest. Template DNA can be prepared for in vitro transcription from a number of sources using suitable techniques well known in the art, including but not limited to plasmid DNA and polymerase chain reaction amplification (see Linpinsel, j.l and Conn, g.l., general protocols for preparation of plasmid DNA template and Bowman, j.c., azizi, b., lenz, t.k., ray, p., and Williams, l.d., RNA in vitro transcription and RNA purification by denaturing PAGE in Recombinant and in vitro RNA syntheses Methods v.941conn g.l. (ed.), new York, n.y. humana Press, 2012).
Transcription of RNA occurs in vitro using linearized DNA templates in the presence of the corresponding RNA polymerase and adenosine, guanosine, uridine and cytidine ribonucleoside triphosphates (rNTPs) under conditions that support polymerase activity while minimizing potential degradation of the resulting mRNA transcripts. In vitro transcription can be performed using a variety of commercially available kits, including but not limited to the RiboMax large-scale RNA production system (Promega), megaScript transcription kit (Life Technologies), and commercially available reagents, including RNA polymerase and rttp. methods for in vitro transcription of mRNA are well known in the art. (see, e.g., lock, R.,1972,In Vitro transcription,Ann Rev Biochem v.41 409-46; kamakaka, R.T., and Kraus, W.L.2001.In Vitro transmission. Current Protocols in Cell biology.2:11.6:11.6.1-11.6.17; beckert, B., and Mascoda, B., (2010) Synthesis of RNA by In Vitro Transcription in RNA in Methods in Molecular Biology v.703 (Neilson, H.works.), new York, N.Y. Humana Press,2010; brunelle, J.L., and Green, R., 3, chapter-In Vitro transcription from plasmid or PCR-amplified 201d DNA, methods in Enzymology v.530,101-114; all of which are incorporated herein by reference).
The desired in vitro transcribed mRNA is then purified from unwanted components of the transcription or related reactions, including non-incorporation of rNTPs, proteases, salts, short RNA oligonucleotides, etc. Techniques for isolating mRNA transcripts are well known in the art. Well known procedures include phenol/chloroform extraction or precipitation with either alcohol (ethanol, isopropanol) in the presence of monovalent cations or lithium chloride. Additional non-limiting examples of purification procedures that may be used include size exclusion chromatography (Lukavsky, p.j. And Puglisi, j.d.,2004, large-scale preparation and purification of polyacrylamide-free RNA oligonucleotides, RNA v.10, 889-893), silica-based affinity chromatography and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (Bowman, j.c., azizi, b., lenz, t.k., ray, p., and Williams, l.d., in RNA in vitro transcription and RNA purification by denaturing PAGE in Recombinant and in vitro RNA syntheses Methods v.941conn g.l. (eds.), new York, n.y. humana Press, 2012). Purification can be performed using a variety of commercially available kits, including, but not limited to, the SV total classification system (SV Total Isolation System) (Promega) and the in vitro transcription purification and concentration kit (In Vitro Transcription Cleanup and Concentration Kit) (Norgen Biotek).
In addition, while reverse transcription may produce large amounts of mRNA, the product may contain one or more abnormal RNA impurities associated with undesired polymerase activity, which may need to be removed from the full-length mRNA preparation. These impurities include short RNAs produced by ineffective transcription initiation, double-stranded RNAs (dsRNA) produced by RNA-dependent RNA polymerase activity, chemotranscription initiated from RNA of RNA templates, and self-complementary 3' extensions. These contaminants with dsRNA structures have been demonstrated to produce undesirable immunostimulatory activity via interactions with various innate immune sensors in eukaryotic cells that function to recognize specific nucleic acid structures and induce potent immune responses. This in turn can greatly reduce mRNA translation, as protein synthesis is reduced during the innate cellular immune response. Thus, additional techniques for removing these dsRNA contaminants have been developed and are known in the art, including, but not limited to, scalable HPLC purification (see, e.g., kariko, k., muramatsu, h., ludwig, j. And Weissman, d.,2011,Generating the optimal mRNA for therapy:HPLC purification eliminates immune activation and improves translation of nucleoside-modified, protein-encoding mRNA, nucleic Acid Res, v.39e142; weissman, d., pari, n., muramatsu, h., and Kariko, k., HPLC Purification of in vitro transcribed long RNA in Synthetic Messenger RNA and Cell Metabolism Modulation in Methods in Molecular Biology v.969 (Rabinovich, p.h. co.) 2013). HPLC purification of mRNA has been reported to translate at much greater levels, especially in primary cells and in vivo.
A number of various modifications have been described in the art for altering the specific properties of in vitro transcribed mRNA and improving its utility. Such modifications include, but are not limited to, modifications of the 5 'and 3' ends of the mRNA. Endogenous eukaryotic mRNA typically contains a cap structure at the 5' -end of the mature molecule that plays an important role in mediating the binding of mRNA Cap Binding Proteins (CBPs), which in turn are responsible for enhancing mRNA stability and mRNA translation efficiency in cells. Thus, the highest protein expression level is achieved with capped mRNA transcripts. The 5 '-cap contains a 5' -5 '-triphosphate linkage between the most 5' nucleotide and the guanine nucleotide. The binding guanine nucleotide is methylated at the N7 position. Additional modifications include methylation of the final and penultimate 5 '-nucleotide on the 2' -hydroxyl group.
A variety of different cap structures can be used to create a 5' -cap for in vitro transcription of synthetic mRNA. The 5' -capping of synthetic mRNA can be performed co-transcriptionally with a chemical cap analog (i.e., capping during in vitro transcription). For example, an anti-reverse cap analogue (ARCA) cap contains 5' -5' -triphosphate guanine-guanine linkages, wherein one guanine contains an N7 methyl group and a 3' -O-methyl group. However, up to 20% of transcripts remain uncapped during this co-transcription process and synthetic cap analogs are not consistent with the 5' -cap structure of true cellular mRNA, potentially reducing translatable and cellular stability. Alternatively, synthetic mRNA molecules may be enzymatically capped post-transcriptionally. These molecules can produce a more realistic 5 '-cap structure that more accurately mimics, structurally or functionally, an endogenous 5' -cap with enhanced binding of the cap binding protein, increased half-life, reduced susceptibility to 5 'endonucleases, and/or reduced 5' uncapping. Many synthetic 5' -cap analogs have been developed and are known in the art to enhance mRNA stability and translatability (see, e.g., grudzien-Nogalska, e., kowalska, j., su, w., kuhn, a.n., slepenkov, s.v., darynkiewicz, e., sahin, u., jeniey, j., and Rhoads, r.e., synthetic mRNAs with superior translation and stability properties in Synthetic Messenger RNA and Cell Metabolism Modulation in Methods in Molecular Biology v.969 (Rabinovich, p.h., code), 2013).
At the 3' -end, long-chain adenine nucleotides (poly-A tails) are typically added to the mRNA molecules during RNA processing. Immediately after transcription, the 3 'end of the transcript is cleaved to release the 3' hydroxyl group, and in a process known as polyadenylation, the poly-A polymerase adds an adenine nucleotide strand to the RNA. The poly-A tail is widely shown to enhance both translation efficiency and stability of mRNA (see Bernstein, P. And Ross, J.,1989, poly (A), poly (A) binding protein and the regulation of mRNA stability, trends Bio Sci.14.373-377; guhaniyogi, J. And Brewer, G.,2001,Regulation of mRNA stability in mammalian cells,Gene,v.265,11-23; dreyfus, M. And Regnier, P.,2002, the poly (A) tail of mRNAs: bodyguard in eukaryotes, scavenger in bacteria, cell, v.111, 611-613).
Poly (a) tailing of mRNA transcribed in vitro can be accomplished using a variety of methods including, but not limited to, cloning the Poly (T) sequence into a DNA template or post-transcriptional addition by use of a Poly (a) polymerase. The first case allows in vitro transcription of mRNA with a poly (A) tail of defined length, depending on the size of the poly (T) sequence, but requires additional manipulation of the template. The latter case involves the enzymatic addition of poly (A) tails to in vitro transcribed mRNA using a poly (A) polymerase that catalyzes the incorporation of adenine residues at the 3' end of the RNA, without additional manipulation of the DNA template, but results in mRNA having poly (A) tails of non-uniform length. The 5 '-capping and 3' -Poly (a) Tailing can be performed using a variety of commercial kits, including, but not limited to, the Poly (a) Polymerase Tailing kit (EpiCenter), the mMESSAGE mMACHINE T7 Ultra kit, and the Poly (a) Tailing kit (Life Technologies), as well as commercial reagents, various ARCA caps, poly (a) polymerase, and the like.
In addition to 5 'cap and 3' polyadenylation, other modifications of in vitro transcripts have been reported to provide benefits related to translational efficiency and stability. It is well known in the art that pathogenic DNA and RNA can be recognized by various sensors within eukaryotes and trigger an effective innate immune response. The ability to distinguish between pathogenic and self DNA and RNA has been demonstrated to be based at least in part on structural and nucleoside modifications, as most nucleic acids from natural sources contain modified nucleosides. In contrast, in vitro synthesized RNAs lack these modifications, thereby rendering them immunostimulatory, which in turn can inhibit efficient mRNA translation, as outlined above. The introduction of modified nucleosides into in vitro transcribed mRNA can be used to prevent recognition and activation of RNA sensors, thereby alleviating such unwanted immunostimulatory activity and enhancing translational capacity (see, e.g., kariko, k. And Weissman, d.2007, naturally occurring nucleos ide modifications suppress the immunostimulatory activity of RNA: implication for therapeutic RNA development, curr Opin Drug Disco v Devel, v.10 523-532; pari, n., muramatsu, h., weissman, d., kariko, k., in vitro transcription of long RNA containing modified nucleosides in Synthetic Messenger RNA and Cell Metabolism Modu lation in Methods in Molecular Biology v.969 (Rabinovich, p.h. code), 2013); kariko, k, muramatsu, h, welsh, f.a., ludwig, j, kato, h, akira, s, weissman, d.,2008,Incorporation of PseudouridineInto mRNA Yields Superior Nonimmunogenic Vector With Increas ed Translational Capacity and Biological Stability,Mol Ther v.16,1833-1840. Modified nucleosides and nucleotides for synthesis of modified RNAs can be prepared for monitoring and utilization using general methods and procedures known in the art. A wide variety of nucleoside modifications are available which can be incorporated into in vitro transcribed mRNA alone or in combination with other modified nucleosides to some extent (see e.g. US 2012/0251618). In vitro synthesis of nucleoside modified mRNA has been reported to have reduced ability to activate immunosensors, with increased translational capacity.
Other components of mRNA that can be modified to provide benefits in terms of translatability and stability include the 5 'and 3' untranslated regions (UTRs). Simultaneously or independently, the optimization of UTRs (advantageously 5 'and 3' UTRs are obtainable from cellular or viral RNAs) has been demonstrated to increase mRNA stability and translation efficiency of in vitro transcribed mRNA (see, e.g., par di, n., muramatsu, h., weissman, d., kariko, k., in vitro transcription of long RNA containing modified nucleosides in Synthetic Messenger RNA and Cell Metabolism Modulation in Methods in Molecular Biology v.969 (Rabinovich, p.h. code), 2013).
In addition to mRNA, other nucleic acid payloads may be used in the present invention. For oligonucleotides, methods of preparation include, but are not limited to, chemical synthesis and enzymatic, chemical cleavage of longer precursors, in vitro transcription as described above, and the like. Methods of synthesizing DNA and RNA nucleotides are widely used and well known in the art (see, e.g., gait, M.J. (eds.) Oligonucl eotide synthesis: a practical approach, oxford [ Oxfordshire ], washingt on, D.C.: IRL Press,1984; and Herdowijn, P. (eds.) Oligonucleotide syn thesis: methods and applications, methods in Molecular Biology, v.288 (Clifton, N.J.) Totowa, N.J.: humana Press,2005; all of which are incorporated herein by reference).
For plasmid DNA, the preparation for use in the present invention generally utilizes, but is not limited to, amplifying and isolating plasmid DNA in vitro in a liquid culture of bacteria containing the plasmid of interest. The presence of genes encoding resistance to specific antibiotics (penicillin, kanamycin, etc.) in the plasmids of interest allows the selective growth of those bacteria containing the plasmids of interest in cultures containing the antibiotics. Methods of isolating plasmid DNA are widely used and well known in the art (see, e.g., heilig, J., elbing, K.L. and Brent, R (2001) Large-Scale Preparation of Plasmid DNA. Current Protocols in Molecular biology.41:II:1.7:1.7.1-1.7.16; rozkov, A., larsson, B., gillstrom, S., bjornestedt, R.and Schmidt, S.R. (2008), large-scale production of endotoxin-free plas mids for transient expression in mammalian cell culture. Biotechnol. Bioeng.,99:557-566; and U.S. Pat. No. 6197553B 1). Plasmid isolation can be performed using a variety of commercially available kits, including, but not limited to, plasmid Plus (Qiagen), genJET plasmidMaxiPrep (Thermo), and PureYield MaxiPrep (Promega) kits, as well as using commercially available reagents.

Which is synthesized from the DNA template during the transcription process. See The American Dictionary of the English Language, fourth edition (updated 2009), houghton Mifflin Company.
In eukaryotes, mRNA is transcribed in vivo at the chromosome by the cellular enzyme RNA polymerase. During or after in vivo transcription, a 5 'cap (also known as an RNA cap, an RNA 7-methylguanosine cap or an RNA m7G cap) is added to the 5' end of the mRNA in vivo. The 5' cap is a terminal 7-methylguanosine residue attached to the first transcription nucleotide via a 5' -5' -triphosphate linkage. In addition, most eukaryotic mRNA molecules have a poly (a) moiety ("poly (a)" tail) at the 3' end of the mRNA molecule. In vivo, eukaryotic cells add a poly (A) tail, often about 250 adenosine residues in length, after transcription (SEQ ID NO: 12). Thus, a typical mature eukaryotic mRNA has the structure starting at the 5' end with an mRNA cap nucleotide, followed by the 5' untranslated region (5 ' UTR) of the nucleotide, and then an open reading frame starting with the start codon of the AUG triplet, which is a nucleotide base of the coding sequence of the protein, and ending with the stop codon of the UAA, UAG, or UGA triplet, which can be a nucleotide base, followed by the 3' untranslated region (3 ' UTR) of the nucleotide and ending with a polyadenylation tail. Although the features of a typical mature eukaryotic mRNA are produced in eukaryotic cells in their native state, the same or structurally and functionally equivalent features can be produced in vitro using molecular biological methods. Thus, any RNA having a structure similar to that of a typical mature eukaryotic mRNA can serve as an mRNA and is within the scope of the term "messenger ribonucleic acid".
mRNA molecules typically have a size such that they can be encapsulated in the lipid nanoparticles of the present invention. Although the size of an mRNA molecule varies in nature depending on the nature of the mRNA species encoding a particular protein, the average size of an mRNA molecule is an average mRNA size of 500-10,000 bases.
DNA may exist in at least two forms, which have different sizes. The first form of DNA is a very large size polymer called a chromosome. Chromosomes contain genetic information for many or most proteins in cells and also contain information by which cells can control the replication of DNA molecules. The bacterial cell may contain one or more chromosomes. Eukaryotic cells typically contain more than one chromosome of the cell, each chromosome,
the second form of DNA is in a shorter size form. Many DNA molecules in the second form have a size such that they can be encapsulated in the lipid nanoparticle of the invention. Some of these shorter forms of DNA may be of a size suitable for encoding a protein. Examples of such second, shorter, useful forms of DNA include plasmids and other vectors. For a more complete description, see Alberts B et al (2007) Molecular Biology of the Cell, fourth edition, garland Science.
Plasmids are small DNA molecules that are physically separated from the chromosomal DNA within a cell and that can replicate independently. Plasmids are typically present in vivo as smaller circular, double-stranded DNA molecules. In nature, plasmids carry genes that can be transcribed and translated into proteins that can be beneficial to the survival of organisms (e.g., antibiotic resistance). In nature, plasmids can often be transferred from one organism to another by horizontal gene transfer. Artificial or recombinant plasmids are widely used in molecular biology to allow replication of recombinant DNA sequences and expression of useful proteins in host organisms. Plasmid sizes may vary from about 1 to over 25 kilobase pairs. Recombinant plasmids can be recombinantly produced to have a size such that they can be encapsulated in the lipid nanoparticles of the invention.
In molecular biology, a vector is a DNA molecule that serves as a vehicle to carry genetic material from one cell to another in vitro, or artificially from a biochemical reaction, in which DNA can be replicated and/or expressed. Vectors containing foreign DNA are referred to as recombinant vectors. Among the various types of vectors available are plasmids and viral vectors. For bacterial cells, insertion of the vector into the target cell is often referred to as transformation, for eukaryotic cells as transfection, but insertion of the viral vector is often referred to as transduction.
Viral vectors are typically recombinant viruses with modified viral DNA or RNA that has become non-infectious, but still contain viral promoters as well as transgenes, thereby allowing for translation of the transgene via the viral promoters. In some embodiments, the viral vector is designed to permanently incorporate the insert into the host genome (integration), and thereby leave a unique genetic marker in the host genome after incorporation of the transgene. The viral vector may be recombinantly produced to have a size such that it may be encapsulated in the lipid nanoparticle of the invention.
The term "short interfering nucleic acid" (siNA) as used herein refers to any nucleic acid molecule capable of inhibiting or down-regulating gene expression or viral replication by mediating RNA interference (RNAi) or gene silencing in a sequence-specific manner. Including short interfering RNAs (sirnas), micrornas (mirnas), short interfering oligonucleotides, and chemically modified short interfering nucleic acid molecules. siRNA is responsible for RNA interference, a sequence-specific post-transcriptional gene silencing process in animals and plants. siRNA is produced by ribonuclease III cleavage from longer double-stranded RNAs (dsRNA) homologous to or specific for a silencing gene target.
The term "RNA interference" (RNAi) is a post-transcriptional, target gene silencing technique that uses an RNAi agent to degrade messenger RNA (mRNA) containing the same or very similar sequence as the RNAi agent. See: zamore and Haley,2005, science,309,1519-1524; zamore et al, 2000, cell,101,25-33; elbashir et al, 2001, nature,411,494-498; and Kreutzer et al PCT publication WO 00/44895; fire, PCT publication WO 99/32619; mello and Fire PCT publication WO 01/29058; etc.
As used herein, RNAi is equivalent to other terms used to describe sequence-specific RNA interference, such as post-transcriptional gene silencing, translational inhibition, transcriptional inhibition, or expression genetics. For example, formulations containing the lipids of the present invention can be used in combination with siNA molecules to simultaneously epigenetically silence genes at post-transcriptional and/or pre-transcriptional levels. In non-limiting examples, modulation of gene expression by a siNA molecule may be produced by siNA-mediated cleavage of RNA (coding or non-coding RNA) via RISC or alternatively by translational inhibition, as is known in the art. In another embodiment, modulation of gene expression by siNA may result from transcriptional repression, such as reported, for example, by Janowski et al, 2005,Nature Chemical Biology,1,216-222.
The term "RNAi inhibitor" is any molecule that can down-regulate (e.g., reduce or inhibit) RNA interference function or activity in a cell or patient. RNAi inhibitors can down-regulate, reduce, or inhibit RNAi (e.g., RNAi-mediated cleavage of a target polynucleotide, translational inhibition, or transcriptional silencing) by interacting with or interfering with the function of any component of the RNAi pathway, including a protein component such as RISC, or a nucleic acid component such as a miRNA or siRNA. An RNAi inhibitor can be a siNA molecule, antisense molecule, aptamer, or small molecule that interacts with or interferes with the function of RISC, miRNA, or siRNA, or any other component of the RNAi pathway in a cell or patient. RNAi inhibitors can be used to modulate (e.g., up-regulate or down-regulate) expression of a target gene by inhibiting RNAi (e.g., RNAi-mediated cleavage of a target polynucleotide, translational inhibition, or transcriptional silencing). In one embodiment, the RNA inhibitor is used to up-regulate gene expression by interfering (e.g., reducing or preventing) with endogenous down-regulation or inhibition of gene expression via translational inhibition, transcriptional silencing, or RISC-mediated cleavage of a polynucleotide (e.g., mRNA). The RNAi inhibitors of the invention can thus be used to up-regulate gene expression by interfering with endogenous repression, silencing or inhibition mechanisms of gene expression to treat diseases or conditions resulting from loss of function. In various embodiments herein, the term "RNAi inhibitor" is used interchangeably with the term "siNA".
The term "enzymatic nucleic acid" as used herein refers to a nucleic acid molecule that has complementarity in a substrate binding region to a specified gene target and also has enzymatic activity for specifically cleaving a target RNA, thereby inactivating the target RNA molecule. The complementary region allows sufficient hybridization of the enzymatic nucleic acid molecule to the target RNA and thus allows cleavage. 100% complementarity is preferred, but complementarity as low as 50% -75% is also suitable for use in the present invention (see, e.g., werner and Uhlenbeck,1995,Nucleic Acids Research,23,2092-2096; hammann et al 1999,Antisense and Nucleic Acid Drug Dev.,9, 25-31). The nucleic acid may be modified at the base, sugar and/or phosphate groups. The term enzymatic nucleic acid may be used interchangeably with phrases such as ribozymes, catalytic RNAs, enzymatic RNAs, catalytic DNAs, aptamer enzymes or aptamer-binding ribozymes, regulatable ribozymes, catalytic oligonucleotides, ribozymes, dnazymes, rnases, endoribonucleases, endonucleases, minienzymes, leader enzymes, oligoenzymes or dnazymes. All these terms describe nucleic acid molecules having enzymatic activity. A key feature of an enzymatic nucleic acid molecule is that it has a specific substrate binding site that is complementary to one or more target nucleic acid regions, and that it has a nucleotide sequence within or around the substrate binding site that confers nucleic acid cleavage and/or ligation activity to the molecule (see, e.g., cech et al, U.S. Pat. No. 4,987,071; cech et al, 1988,260JAMA 3030). The ribozymes and enzymatic nucleic acid molecules of the invention may be chemically modified, e.g., as described in the art and elsewhere herein.
The term "antisense nucleic acid" as used herein refers to a non-enzymatic nucleic acid molecule that binds to a target RNA and alters the activity of the target RNA by means of RNA-RNA or RNA-DNA or RNA-PNA (protein nucleic acid; egollm et al 1993nature 365, 566) (for reviews see Stein and Cheng,1993Science 261,1004 and Woolf et al, U.S. patent No. 5,849,902). Antisense DNA can be chemically synthesized or expressed via the use of single stranded DNA expression vectors or equivalents thereof. The antisense molecules of the invention can be chemically modified, for example, as described in the art.
The term "rnase H activating region" as used herein refers to a region of a nucleic acid molecule (typically greater than or equal to 4-25 nucleotides in length, preferably 5-11 nucleotides in length) that is capable of binding to a target RNA to form a non-covalent complex that is recognized by cellular rnase H enzymes (see, e.g., arow et al, U.S. patent No. 5,849,902; arow et al, U.S. patent No. 5,989,912). Rnase H enzyme binds to nucleic acid molecule-target RNA complex and cleaves target RNA sequence.
The term "2-5A antisense chimera" as used herein refers to an antisense oligonucleotide containing 5' -phosphorylated 2' -5' -linked adenylate residues. These chimeras bind to the target RNA in a sequence-specific manner and activate cellular 2-5A-dependent ribonucleases, which in turn cleave the target RNA (Torrenc et al, 1993Proc.Natl.Acad.Sci.USA 90,1300;Silverman et al, 2000,Methods Enzymol, 313,522-533; player and Torrenc, 1998, pharmacol. Ther.,78,55-113). The 2-5A antisense chimeric molecule can be chemically modified, for example as described in the art.
The term "triplex forming oligonucleotide" as used herein refers to an oligonucleotide that can bind to double stranded DNA in a sequence specific manner to form a triple helix. Formation of such triple helical structures has been shown to inhibit transcription of target genes (Duval-Valentin et al, 1992Proc.Natl.Acad.Sci.USA 89,504;Fox,2000,Curr.Med.Chem, 7,17-37; praseuth et al, 2000, biochem. Biophys. Acta,1489, 181-206). The triplex forming oligonucleotide molecules of the invention may be chemically modified, for example as described in the art.
The term "decoy RNA" as used herein refers to an RNA molecule or aptamer designed to preferentially bind to a predetermined ligand. Such binding may result in inhibition or activation of the target molecule. Decoy RNAs or aptamers can compete with naturally occurring binding targets to bind specific ligands. Similarly, decoy RNAs can be designed to bind to a receptor and block binding of an effector molecule or can be designed to bind to a target receptor and prevent interaction with the receptor. The bait molecules of the invention may be chemically modified, for example as described in the art.
The term "single stranded DNA" (ssDNA) as used herein refers to naturally occurring or synthetic deoxyribonucleic acid molecules comprising linear single strands, e.g., ssDNA may be a sense or antisense gene sequence or EST (expressed sequence tag).
The term "allelic enzyme" as used herein refers to an allosteric nucleic acid molecule, including, for example, U.S. patent No. 5,834,186; 5,741,679; 5,589,332; 5,871,914; and PCT publications WO 00/24931, WO 00/2626, WO 98/27104 and WO 99/29842.
The term "aptamer" as used herein means a polynucleotide composition that specifically binds to a target molecule, wherein the polynucleotide has a sequence that is different from the sequence normally recognized by the target molecule in a cell. Alternatively, an aptamer may be a nucleic acid molecule that binds to a target molecule, wherein the target molecule does not naturally bind to the nucleic acid. The target molecule may be any target molecule. The aptamer molecules of the invention may be chemically modified, for example as described in the art.

V. immunization according to the invention
For immunization purposes, in some embodiments, the invention encompasses delivery of mRNA encoding an immunogen. Immunogens elicit an immune response that recognizes the immunogen and thus can be used to provide immunity against pathogens or against allergens or against tumor antigens. Immunization against diseases and/or infections caused by pathogens is preferred.
In certain embodiments, the naLNP has ancillary properties. For example, the naLNP disclosed herein can have specific T follicular helper cell helper activities that result in an effective antibody response. The asymmetric ionizable lipid LNP can act as a strong Th2 biasing adjuvant when delivered with protein subunit antigens. In some embodiments, the naLNP mRNA vaccine disclosed herein drives a Tfh bias response that stimulates proliferation and effective durable neutralizing antibody responses of Tfh and germinal center B cells.
RNA is delivered with the lipid composition of the invention (e.g., formulated as LNP). In some embodiments, the invention utilizes liposomes having an RNA encoding an immunogen encapsulated therein. Encapsulation within LNP protects RNA from rnase digestion. The encapsulation efficiency need not be 100%. The presence of external RNA molecules (e.g., on the outer surface of the liposome) or "naked" RNA molecules (RNA molecules that are not associated with LNP) is acceptable. Preferably, for compositions comprising liposomes and RNA molecules, at least half of the RNA molecules (e.g., at least 50%, at least 55%, at least 60%, at least 65%, at least 70%, at least 75%, at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, or at least 95% of the RNA molecules) are encapsulated in naLNP.
The RNA molecule can also complex with LNP. For example, lipids need not form only liposomes (with an aqueous core). Some lipid nanoparticles may comprise a lipid core (e.g., a composition may comprise a mixture of liposomes having a lipid core and nanoparticles). In these cases, by non-covalent interactions (e.g., ionic interactions between negatively charged RNAs and cationic lipids), the RNA molecules can be encapsulated by the LNP with an aqueous core and complexed with the LNP with a lipid core. Encapsulation and complexation by LNP (whether with lipid or aqueous core) protects RNA from rnase digestion. The encapsulation/recombination efficiency need not be 100%. The presence of "naked" RNA molecules (RNA molecules that are not associated with liposomes) is acceptable. Preferably, for a composition comprising a population of LNPs and a population of RNA molecules, at least half of the population of RNA molecules (e.g., at least 50%, at least 55%, at least 60%, at least 65%, at least 70%, at least 75%, at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, or at least 95% of the RNA molecules) is encapsulated in, or complexed with, the LNPs.
RNA molecules in pharmaceutical compositions
Following in vivo administration of the immunizing composition, the delivered RNA is released and translated inside the cell to provide the immunogen in situ. In certain embodiments, the RNA is plus ("+") stranded so that it can be translated by the cell without any intervening replication steps such as reverse transcription. It may also bind to TLR7 receptors expressed by immune cells, thereby eliciting an accessory effect. Additionally or alternatively, the RNA may bind other receptors, such as RIG I, MDA5, or RIG I and MDA5.
In certain embodiments, the RNA is self-replicating RNA. Self-replicating RNA molecules (replicons) can, when delivered to even vertebrate cells without any proteins, result in the production of multiple daughter RNAs by self-transcription (via their own produced antisense copies). Thus, in certain embodiments, the self-replicating RNA molecule is a (+) strand molecule that can be directly translated after delivery to a cell, and such translation provides an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase that then produces both antisense and sense transcripts from the delivered RNA. Thus, the delivered RNA results in the production of multiple daughter RNAs. These daughter RNAs, as well as collinear subgenomic transcripts, may be translated themselves to provide in situ expression of the encoded immunogen, or may be transcribed to provide further transcripts of the same meaning as the delivered RNA, which are translated to provide in situ expression of the immunogen. The overall result of this series of transcriptions is a vast amplification of the number of replicon RNAs introduced and thus the encoded immunogens become the major polypeptide products of the host cell.
One suitable system for achieving self-replication is the use of an alphavirus-based RNA replicon. These (+) strand replicons translate after delivery to cells to give replicases (or replicase-transcriptases). Replicases translate into polyproteins that automatically cleave to provide replication complexes that produce genomic (-) strand copies of the (+) strand delivered RNA. These (-) strand transcripts can be transcribed on themselves to give further copies of the plus strand parent RNA and also give subgenomic transcripts encoding immunogens. Translation of the subgenomic transcripts thus results in situ expression of the immunogen by the infected cells. Suitable alphavirus replicons may use replicases from sindbis virus, semliki forest virus, eastern equine encephalitis virus, venezuelan equine encephalitis virus, etc. Mutant or wild-type viral sequences may be used, for example attenuated TC83 mutants of VEEV have been used in replicons.
Thus, it is preferred that the self-replicating RNA molecule encodes (i) an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase that can transcribe RNA from the self-replicating RNA molecule and (ii) an immunogen. The polymerase can be an alphavirus replicase, e.g., comprising one or more of the alphavirus proteins nsP1, nsP2, nsP3, and nsP 4.
Although the native alphavirus genome encodes a structural virion protein in addition to the non-structural replicase polyprotein, in certain embodiments, the self-replicating RNA molecules of the invention do not encode an alphavirus structural protein. Thus, a specific self-replicating RNA can result in the production of a self-genome RNA copy in a cell, but does not produce RNA-containing virions. The inability to produce these viral particles means that, unlike wild-type alphaviruses, self-replicating RNA molecules cannot perpetuate themselves in an infectious form. The alphavirus structural proteins necessary for perpetuation in wild-type viruses are not present in the self-replicating RNAs of the invention and are replaced in position by genes encoding immunogens of interest such that subgenomic transcripts encode immunogens rather than structural alphavirus virion proteins.
Self-replicating RNA molecules suitable for use in the present invention may therefore have two open reading frames. One open reading frame encodes a replicase, e.g., a first (5') open reading frame; the other open reading frame encodes an immunogen, e.g., a second (3') open reading frame. In some embodiments the RNA may have an additional (e.g., downstream) open reading frame, e.g., to encode a further immunogen (see below) or to encode an accessory polypeptide.
The self-replicating RNA molecule may have a 5' sequence that is compatible with the encoded replicase.
Self-replicating RNA molecules may have different lengths, but are typically 5000-25000 nucleotides in length, e.g., 8000-15000 nucleotides, or 9000-12000 nucleotides. Thus, the RNA is longer than that found in siRNA or conventional mRNA delivery. In some embodiments, the self-replicating RNA is greater than about 2000 nucleotides, such as greater than about: 9000. 12000, 15000, 18000, 21000, 24000 or more nucleotides in length.
The RNA molecule can have a 5' cap (e.g., 7-methylguanosine). This cap enhances in vivo translation of RNA.
The 5 'nucleotide of the RNA molecule suitable for use in the present invention may have a 5' triphosphate group. In capped RNA, this can be linked to 7-methylguanosine via a 5 '-to-5' bridge. 5' triphosphate can enhance RIG-I binding and thereby promote helper effects.
The RNA molecule may have a 3' poly a tail. It may also include a poly A polymerase recognition sequence (e.g., AAUAAA) near its 3' end.
RNA molecules suitable for use in the present invention are typically single stranded for immunization purposes. Single stranded RNA can elicit a helper effect, typically by binding to TLR7, TLR8, RNA helicase and/or PKR. RNA delivered in double stranded form (dsRNA) can bind to TLR3, and such receptors can also be triggered by dsRNA formed during replication of single stranded RNA or within the secondary structure of single stranded RNA.
RNA molecules for immunization purposes can be conveniently prepared by In Vitro Transcription (IVT). IVT may use a (cDNA) template produced in bacteria in plasmid form and propagated, or synthesized (e.g., by gene synthesis and/or Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) engineering methods). For example, a DNA-dependent RNA polymerase (such as phage T7, T3, or SP6 RNA polymerase) may be used to transcribe RNA from a DNA template. Appropriate capping and poly A addition reactions can be used as desired (although the poly-A of replicons is typically encoded within a DNA template). These RNA polymerases can have stringent requirements for transcribed 5' nucleotides and in some embodiments these requirements must be matched to the requirements of the encoded replicase to ensure that the IVT transcribed RNA can function effectively as a substrate for its own encoded replicase.
As discussed in WO2011/005799, self-replicating RNAs may include (in addition to any 5' cap structure) one or more nucleotides with modified nucleobases. For example, self-replicating RNA can include one or more modified pyrimidine nucleobases, such as pseudouridine and/or 5-methylcytosine residues. However, in some embodiments, the RNA does not comprise modified nucleobases and may not include modified nucleotides, i.e., all nucleotides in the RNA are standard A, C, G and U ribonucleotides (except any 5 'cap structure that may include 7' methylguanosine). In other embodiments, the RNA can include a 5 'cap comprising 7' methylguanosine, and the first 1, 2, or 3 5 'ribonucleotides can be methylated at the 2' position of the ribose.
The RNA used in the present invention desirably comprises only phosphodiester linkages between nucleosides for immunization purposes, but in some embodiments may contain phosphoramidate, phosphorothioate, and/or methylphosphonate linkages.
The invention includes embodiments in which multiple RNA species are formulated with the lipid compositions provided by the invention, such as 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 or more species of RNA, including different classes of RNA (such as mRNA, siRNA, self-replicating RNA, and combinations thereof).
VII immunogens
In some embodiments, the RNA molecules used in the present invention encode polypeptide immunogens for immunization purposes. In these embodiments, following administration, the RNA is translated in vivo and the immunogen may elicit an immune response in the recipient. The immunogen may elicit an immune response against a pathogen (e.g., a bacterium, virus, fungus, or parasite), but in some embodiments it elicits an immune response against an allergen or tumor antigen. The immune response may include an antibody response (typically including IgG) and/or a cell-mediated immune response. Polypeptide immunogens will typically elicit an immune response that recognizes the corresponding pathogen (or allergen or tumor) polypeptide, but in some embodiments the polypeptide may act as a mimotope to elicit an immune response that recognizes a sugar. The immunogen is typically a surface polypeptide such as an adhesin, hemagglutinin, envelope glycoprotein, spike glycoprotein, or the like.
The RNA molecule may encode a single polypeptide immunogen or a plurality of polypeptides. Multiple immunogens may be presented as a single polypeptide immunogen (fusion polypeptide) or as separate polypeptides. If the immunogen is expressed as a separate polypeptide from the mRNA, one or more of these polypeptides may have an upstream IRES or additional viral promoter element. Alternatively, multiple immunogens may be expressed by a multimeric protein that encodes a separate immunogen fused to a short autocatalytic protease (e.g., the hoof disease virus 2A protein), or expressed as an intein.
In certain embodiments, a polypeptide immunogen (e.g., 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, or more immunogens) can be used alone or in combination with an RNA molecule, such as self-replicating RNA, that encodes one or more immunogens (e.g., the same or different polypeptide immunogens).

The pharmaceutical compositions of the invention may have an osmolality of about or at least 100, 150, 175, 200, 250, 275, 300, 325, 350, 375, 400, 425, 450, 475, 500 mOsm/kg. In some embodiments, the osmolality is between about 200mOsm/kg and 400mOsm/kg, such as between about 240-360mOsm/kg, or between about 290-310 mOsm/kg.
The pharmaceutical compositions of the invention may comprise one or more preservatives, such as thimerosal or 2 phenoxyethanol. Mercury-free compositions can be produced and preservative-free vaccines can be prepared.
The composition comprises an immunologically effective amount of a lipid composition described herein (e.g., liposomes and LNP), as well as any other components as desired. An immunologically effective amount refers to an amount that is administered to an individual that is effective for treatment (e.g., a prophylactic immune response against a pathogen) in a single dose or as part of a series of doses. This amount varies depending on: the health and physical condition of the individual to be treated, the age, the taxonomic group of the individual to be treated (e.g., non-human primate, etc.), the ability of the individual's immune system to synthesize antibodies, the degree of protection desired, the formulation of the vaccine, the assessment of the medical condition by the treating physician, and other relevant factors. The amounts are expected to fall within a relatively broad range that can be determined via routine experimentation. The compositions of the invention are generally expressed in terms of the amount of RNA per dose. The preferred dosage has 100 μg of RNA (e.g., 10-100 μg, such as about 10 μg, 25 μg, 50 μg, 75 μg, or 100 μg), but expression can be observed at much lower levels, e.g., 1 μg/dose, 100 ng/dose, 10 ng/dose, 1 ng/dose, etc.
The invention also provides delivery devices (e.g., syringes, nebulizers, inhalers, skin patches, etc.) containing the pharmaceutical compositions of the invention. Such devices can be used to administer the composition to a vertebrate subject.
Therapeutic methods and medical uses
LNP formulated RNAs and pharmaceutical compositions described herein are used in vivo to induce an immune response against an immunogen of interest.
The present invention provides methods for inducing an immune response in a vertebrate, the methods comprising administering an effective amount of a liposome-formulated or LNP-formulated RNA or pharmaceutical composition as described herein. The immune response is preferably protective and preferably involves antibody and/or cell mediated immunity. The composition may be used for both priming and strengthening purposes. Alternatively, the prime-boost immunization schedule may be a mix of RNA and the corresponding polypeptide antigen (e.g., RNA priming, protein boosting).
The invention also provides liposomes, LNPs, or pharmaceutical compositions for inducing an immune response in a vertebrate. The invention also provides the use of a liposome, LNP or pharmaceutical composition in the manufacture of a medicament for inducing an immune response in a vertebrate.
By inducing an immune response in a vertebrate by these uses and methods, the vertebrate can be protected from various diseases and/or infections, e.g., from bacterial and/or viral diseases as discussed above. The liposomes, LNP and compositions are immunogenic, and more preferably are vaccine compositions. Vaccines according to the invention may be prophylactic (i.e. to prevent infection) or therapeutic (i.e. to treat infection) but are typically prophylactic.
The vertebrate is preferably a mammal, such as a human or larger veterinary mammal (e.g., horse, cow, deer, goat, pig). As used herein, "larger mammal" refers to a mammal having a typical or average adult weight of at least 5kg, preferably at least 7 kg. Such larger mammals may include, for example, humans, non-human primates, dogs, pigs, cows, deer, goats, and are intended to exclude smaller mammals such as mice, rats, guinea pigs, and other rodents.
When the vaccine is for prophylactic use, the human is preferably a child (e.g., a young child or infant) or adolescent; when the vaccine is for therapeutic use, the human is preferably adolescent or adult. Vaccines intended for children may also be administered to adults, for example, to assess safety, dose, immunogenicity, and the like.
Vaccines prepared according to the present invention are useful for the treatment of both children and adults. Thus, a human patient may be less than 1 year old, less than 5 years old, 1-5 years old, 5-15 years old, 15-55 years old, or at least 55 years old. Preferred patients receiving the vaccine are elderly (e.g.,. Gtoreq.50 years, > 60 years and preferably > 65 years), young (e.g.,. Ltoreq.5 years), hospitalized patients, health care workers, armed forces and military personnel, pregnant females, chronic patients or immunodeficiency patients. However, vaccines are not only suitable for use in these groups, but may be used in the general population. The compositions of the present invention are typically administered directly to a patient. Direct delivery may be achieved by parenteral injection (e.g., subcutaneous, intraperitoneal, intravenous, intramuscular, intradermal, or injection into the interstitial space of the tissue; sublingual injection is not commonly used for immunization purposes).
The invention may be used to induce systemic and/or mucosal immunity, preferably to elicit enhanced systemic and/or mucosal immunity.
The dose may be a single dose schedule or multiple dose schedules. Multiple doses may be used for the primary and/or booster immunization schedule. In multiple dose schedules, each dose may be administered by the same or different routes, e.g., parenteral priming and mucosal boosting, mucosal priming and parenteral boosting, etc. The multiple doses are typically administered at least 1 week apart (e.g., about 2 weeks, about 3 weeks, about 4 weeks, about 6 weeks, about 8 weeks, about 10 weeks, about 12 weeks, about 16 weeks, etc.). In one embodiment, multiple doses may be administered about 6 weeks, 10 weeks, and 14 weeks after birth, e.g., at 6 weeks, 10 weeks, and 14 weeks of age, as commonly used in the extended immunization program ("EPI") of the world health organization. In alternative embodiments, two primary doses are administered about two months apart, e.g., about 7, 8, or 9 weeks apart, followed by about 6 months to 1 year after the second primary dose, e.g., about 6, 8, 10, or 12 months after the second primary dose, with one or more booster doses. In another embodiment, three primary doses are administered about two months apart, e.g., about 7, 8, or 9 weeks apart, followed by about 6 months to 1 year after the third primary dose, e.g., about 6, 8, 10, or 12 months after the third primary dose, with one or more booster doses.

Example 1 increasing lipid concentration from 6mM to 27mM and mRNA from 0.14mg/ml to 0.56mg/ml increased LNP delivery efficiency in vitro (study TRANS-10).
Overview: LNP was formulated using a total lipid concentration of 6 to 27mM comprising KC 2/DSPC/cholesterol/PEG-DMG (50:10:38.5:1.5 mol%). Each lipid was dissolved in ethanol until a clear solution was observed. The four lipids were combined to obtain a total lipid concentration of 50mM (25/5/19.25/0.75 mM, respectively) and then serially diluted to reach 6 to 27mM. Codon optimized firefly luciferase (Fluc) sequences were cloned into mRNA plasmids (optimized 3 'and 5' utrs and containing 101polyA tails) for co-transcriptional capping, transcribed in vitro using N1 methyl pseudouridine modified nucleosides and cellulose purified to remove dsRNA. Purified mRNA was ethanol precipitated, washed and resuspended in nuclease free water to a concentration of 1 mg/mL. The NP ratio was kept constant at 4, fluc mRNA stock was diluted in serial dilutions from higher to lower concentration solutions, reaching 0.14 to 0.56mg/ml in 25mM sodium acetate buffer pH 4, then mixed in Spark NanoAssmblr (Precision NanoSystems), which allowed for higher reproducibility in formulations using microfluidic mixing techniques. Mu.l of the lipid mixture and 32. Mu.l of the mRNA solution were mixed on setting 3 and drained into 48. Mu.l of 1 XDPBS pH 7.4. The LNP formed was then diluted into an additional 96. Mu.l of 1 XDPBS pH 7.4. LNP was then dialyzed against 1x DPBS pH 7.4 for 4x1 hour. LNP was then diluted so that 32ul contained 200ng and 12k hek293 cells were transfected at the same 200ng dose but made at different concentrations in a microfluidic mixer. Increasing the mixing concentration resulted in an increase in delivery efficiency at the same dose, indicating that the concentration during mixing affects LNP structure and thus delivery efficiency. This finding is significant for commercial manufacture of mRNA vaccines.
Firefly luciferase assay of mrna delivery efficiency. After 24 hours transfection, the transfected cells were conditioned to room temperature 30 minutes prior to firefly luciferase assay. Quantilum recombinant luciferase standard curves were prepared in 5-fold serial dilutions in 10% EMEM. 3.9x10 -5 mg/ml to 4.88x10 -3 50ul of standard spots in the mg/ml range were included in the microwell plates as positive enzyme activity controls (data not shown) to maintain 10 7 Linearity of RLU/mg/ml. ONE-Glo substrates previously conditioned to room temperature for at least 4 hours were added to each untransfected, transfected and Quantilum well at a 1:1 ratio. Assay plates were incubated in the dark for 3 minutes and immediately introduced into a station 5 cell imaging multimode reader (Biotek) to read fluorescence.
B: ribogreen assay of mRNA encapsulation efficiency. 1 XTE buffer and Triton buffer (2% v/v in 1 XTE buffer) were added in duplicate to the black microwell plates of each LNP. LNP was diluted to 4ng/ul in 1 XDPBS pH 7.4 and added to each TE/Triton well at a 1:1 ratio. Two standard curves were included in the Ribogreen assay, one containing mRNA and 1X TE buffer and the other containing mRNA and Triton buffer. Each of these standard curves was used to calculate mRNA concentrations in the respective TE buffer or Triton buffer. This method of using two standard curves more accurately calculates encapsulation efficiency and mRNA concentration than a single standard curve. After the diluted LNP was added to the plate, standards were included in the microplate. Microplates were incubated at 37 ℃ for 10 minutes to extract LNP with Triton. Ribogreen reagent was diluted 1:100 in 1 XTE buffer and added to each well at a 1:1 ratio. Microplates were immediately introduced into a Cystation 5 cell imaging multimode reader (Biotek) to read fluorescence (Ex 485/Em 528).
C: LNP-sized dynamic light scattering (red dots are PDI to the right of the y-axis). LNP was diluted to 6.25ng/ul in 1X DPBS pH 7.4 and transferred into quartz cuvette (ZEN 2112) to measure size by Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) in Zetasizer Nano ZS (Malvern Panalytical) at 25 ℃ in 1X PBS with particle RI of 1.45 and absorption of 0.001, viscosity of 1.02cP and RI of 1.335. Measurements were made using 173 ° backscatter detection angles that were previously repeated twice to equilibrate to 25 ℃ for 30 seconds, each run 5 times and for 10 seconds, with no delay between measurements. Each measurement had a fixed position of 4.65 in a quartz cuvette with automatic decay selection. The data was analyzed using a generic model with normal parsing.

The NP ratio was kept constant at 4, fluc mRNA stock was diluted in serial dilutions from higher to lower concentration solutions, reaching 1 to 2mg/ml in 50mM sodium acetate buffer pH 4, then mixed in Spark NanoAssmblr (Precision NanoSystems), which allowed for higher reproducibility in formulations using microfluidic mixing techniques. Mu.l of the lipid mixture and 32. Mu.l of the mRNA solution were mixed on setting 3 and drained into 48. Mu.l of 1 XDPBS pH 7.4. The LNP formed was then diluted into an additional 96. Mu.l of 1 XDPBS pH 7.4. LNP was then dialyzed against 1x DPBS pH 7.4 for 4x1 hour. LNP was then diluted so that 32ul contained 200ng and 12k hek293 cells were transfected at the same 25-200ng dose but made at different concentrations in a microfluidic mixer. Increasing the mixing concentration resulted in an increase in delivery efficiency at the same dose, indicating that the concentration during mixing affects LNP structure and thus delivery efficiency. This finding is significant for commercial manufacture of mRNA vaccines.

D: and (5) pH measurement. Measurements were made before and after 4 hours of dialysis against 1x DPBS ph 7.4. Note herein that these LNPs were formulated using 100mM NaOAc compared to example 6. Increasing the concentration of sodium acetate buffer in the formulation keeps the pH lower due to the higher buffering capacity, thereby producing a lower pH prior to LNP dialysis.

Example 9: increasing lipid concentration from 5mM to 100mM and mRNA from 0.1mg/ml to 2mg/ml increased LNP delivery efficiency in vivo (study in vivo-3).
Overview: LNP was formulated using a total lipid concentration of 5 to 100mM comprising KC 2/DSPC/cholesterol/PEG-DMG (50:10:38.5:1.5 mol%). Each lipid was dissolved in ethanol until a clear solution was observed. The four lipids were combined to obtain a total lipid concentration of 50mM (25/5/19.25/0.75 mM, respectively) and then serially diluted to reach 5 to 50mM. To prepare a total lipid concentration of 75mM (37.5/7.5/28.88/1.13 mM, respectively), KC2 and cholesterol were first mixed, and the same was true for DSPC and PEG, to dissolve the two solutions in ethanol, and then combined to achieve 75mM. To prepare a total lipid concentration of 100mM (50/10/38.5/1.5 mM, respectively), KC2 and cholesterol were first mixed, and the same was true for DSPC and PEG, to dissolve the two solutions in ethanol, and then combined to achieve 100mM.

Purified mRNA was ethanol precipitated, washed and resuspended in nuclease free water to a concentration of 3.6 mg/mL. The NP ratio was kept constant at 4, fluc mRNA stock was diluted in serial dilutions from higher to lower concentration solutions, reaching 0.1 to 2mg/ml in 50mM sodium acetate buffer pH 4, then mixed in Spark NanoAssmblr (Precision NanoSystems), which allowed for higher reproducibility in formulations using microfluidic mixing techniques. 24 μl of lipid mixture and 48 μl of mRNA solution were mixed on set 5 and drained into 72 μl of 1 XDPBS pH 7.4. The LNP formed was then diluted into an additional 144. Mu.l of 1 XDPBS pH 7.4. LNP was then dialyzed against 1x DPBS pH 7.4 for 4x1 hour. LNP was concentrated to expel 5ug of encapsulated mRNA in 50ul for intramuscular administration. Increasing the mixing concentration resulted in an increase in delivery efficiency at the same dose, indicating that the concentration during mixing affects LNP structure and thus delivery efficiency. This finding is significant for commercial manufacture of mRNA vaccines.

C: firefly luciferase expression in vivo in IM administration. 5ug of encapsulated mRNA was injected into mice in intramuscular (I.M.), intradermal (I.D.), and intravenous (I.V.) injections. The ROI was calculated using the IVIS system. Imaging was performed at 4 and 20 hours.
Example 10: direct protonation of the ionizable lipids and mixing with mRNA in water allows mRNA to be encapsulated. Increasing the concentration of sodium acetate (NaOAc) buffer at pH4 increased mRNA encapsulation (study LNP-6 part II).
Overview: LNP was formulated using a total lipid concentration of 27.74mM containing MC 3/DSPC/cholesterol/PEG-DMG (50:10:38.5:1.5 mol%). Each lipid was dissolved in ethanol until a clear solution was observed. The MC3 stock was protonated at 0%, 50% and 100% total amine using 1M HCl by counting the moles of amine on the ionizable lipid and adding 0%, 50%, 100% lipid to the number of moles of HCl. The four lipids were combined to obtain a total lipid concentration of 50mM (25/5/19.25/0.75 mM, respectively). Codon optimized firefly luciferase (Fluc) sequences were cloned into mRNA plasmids (optimized 3 'and 5' utrs and containing 101polyA tails) for co-transcriptional capping, transcribed in vitro using N1 methyl pseudouridine modified nucleosides and cellulose purified to remove dsRNA. Purified mRNA was ethanol precipitated, washed and resuspended in nuclease free water to a concentration of 1 mg/mL. The NP ratio was kept constant at 4, fluc mRNA stock reached 0.56mg/ml in water, 5, 10, 25 and 50mM sodium acetate buffer pH4, then mixed in Spark NanoAssmblr (Precision NanoSystems), which allowed for higher reproducibility in formulations using microfluidic mixing techniques. Mu.l of the lipid mixture and 32. Mu.l of the mRNA solution were mixed on setting 3 and drained into 48. Mu.l of 1 XDPBS pH 7.4. The LNP formed was then diluted into an additional 96. Mu.l of 1 XDPBS pH 7.4. The results show that direct protonation of the ionizable lipid using HCl mixed with mRNA in water without the use of buffer results in a similar mRNA encapsulation level as when mixed in sodium acetate buffer at pH 4. In addition, a concentration of 25mM sodium acetate was required to maximize mRNA encapsulation when mixed in sodium acetate buffer at pH 4. This maximum encapsulation criterion was used in all prior art to determine buffer concentration and mixing conditions. The present invention shows that this procedure does not maximize LNP efficacy because buffer concentration needs to be optimized to maximize LNP efficacy in addition to absolute mix concentration.

Example 11: increasing lipid concentration from 50mM to 150mM and mRNA from 1mg/ml to 3mg/ml increases LNP delivery efficiency at lower sodium acetate concentrations. Increasing sodium acetate concentrations above 50mM reduced LNP efficacy at all concentrations in vitro (study TRANS-32).
Overview: LNP was formulated using a total lipid concentration of 50 to 120mM comprising KC 2/DSPC/cholesterol/PEG-DMG (50:10:38.5:1.5 mol%). Each lipid was dissolved in ethanol until a clear solution was observed. The four lipids were combined to obtain a total lipid concentration of 50mM (25/5/19.25/0.75 mM, respectively). To prepare a total lipid concentration of 100mM (50/10/38.5/1.5 mM, respectively), KC2 and cholesterol were first mixed, and the same was true for DSPC and PEG, to dissolve the two solutions in ethanol, and then combined to achieve 100mM. To prepare a total lipid concentration of 150mM (75/15/57.75/2.25 mM, respectively), KC2 and cholesterol were first mixed, and the same was true for DSPC and PEG, to dissolve the two solutions in ethanol, and then combined to achieve 150mM. Codon optimized firefly luciferase (Fluc) sequences were cloned into mRNA plasmids (optimized 3 'and 5' utrs and containing 101polyA tails) for co-transcriptional capping, transcribed in vitro using N1 methyl pseudouridine modified nucleosides and cellulose purified to remove dsRNA. Purified mRNA was ethanol precipitated, washed and resuspended in nuclease free water to a concentration of 4.4 mg/mL. The NP ratio was kept constant at 4, fluc mRNA stock was diluted in serial dilutions from higher to lower concentration solutions, reaching 1 to 3mg/ml in 50, 100 and 150mM sodium acetate (NaOAc) buffer pH 4, then mixed in Spark NanoAssmblr (Precision NanoSystems), which allowed for higher reproducibility in formulations using microfluidic mixing techniques. Mu.l of the lipid mixture and 32. Mu.l of the mRNA solution were mixed on setting 3 and drained into 48. Mu.l of 1 XDPBS pH 7.4. The LNP formed was then diluted into an additional 96. Mu.l of 1 XDPBS pH 7.4. LNP was then dialyzed against 1x DPBS pH 7.4 for 4x1 hour. LNP was then diluted so that 32ul contained 25-200ng and 12k hek293 cells were transfected at the same dose but made at different concentrations in a microfluidic mixer. Increasing the mixed concentration only at the lowest NaOAc concentration of 50mM resulted in an increase in delivery efficiency at the same dose. Higher NaOAc concentrations reduce LNP efficacy and even more so at higher mixed concentrations.

Example 12: increasing the lipid concentration from 12.5mM to 75mM and the mRNA from 0.25mg/ml to 1.5mg/ml increases the LNP delivery efficiency of the ionizable lipids KC2, MC3 and BOD-ADDE-C2/C4-PipZ in vitro. Decreasing sodium acetate concentration increases LNP efficacy while decreasing mRNA encapsulation (study TRANS-33).
Overview: LNP was formulated using a total lipid concentration of 12.5 and 75mM containing several ionisables (KC 2/MC3/DL-ADDE-C2C 2-PipZ/BOD-ADDE-C2C 4-PipZ)/DSPC/cholesterol/PEG-DMG (50:10:38.5:1.5 mol%). Each lipid was dissolved in ethanol until a clear solution was observed. The four lipids were combined to obtain a total lipid concentration of 50mM (25/5/19.25/0.75 mM, respectively) and serial dilutions were then performed to reach 12.5mM. To prepare a total lipid concentration of 75mM (37.5/7.5/28.88/1.13 mM, respectively), KC2/MC3/DL-ADDE-C2C 2-PipZ/BOD-ADDE-C2C 4-PipZ and cholesterol were first mixed and the same was true for DSPC and PEG to dissolve the two solutions in ethanol and then combined to achieve 75mM. Codon optimized firefly luciferase (Fluc) sequences were cloned into mRNA plasmids (optimized 3 'and 5' utrs and containing 101polyA tails) for co-transcriptional capping, transcribed in vitro using N1 methyl pseudouridine modified nucleosides and cellulose purified to remove dsRNA. Purified mRNA was ethanol precipitated, washed and resuspended in nuclease free water to a concentration of 4.4 mg/mL. The NP ratio was kept constant at 4, fluc mRNA stock was diluted in serial dilutions from higher to lower concentration solutions, reaching 0.25 to 1.5mg/ml in 25, 43 and 60mM sodium acetate buffer pH 4, then mixed in Spark NanoAssmblr (Precision NanoSystems), which allowed for higher reproducibility in formulations using microfluidic mixing techniques. Mu.l of the lipid mixture and 32. Mu.l of the mRNA solution were mixed on setting 3 and discharged into well 1 (W1 in the particle size diagram) containing 48. Mu.l of 1 XDPBS pH 7.4. The LNP formed was then diluted into an additional 96. Mu.l of 1 XDPBS pH7.4 (D in the particle size diagram). LNP was then dialyzed against 1x DPBS pH7.4 for 4x1 hour. LNP was then diluted so that 32ul contained 25-200ng and 12k hek293 cells were transfected at the same dose but made at different concentrations in a microfluidic mixer. KC2, MC3 and BOD-ADDE-C2C 4-PipZ ionizable lipids demonstrated a greater increase in potency at the higher concentration of 1.5mg/ml compared to the lower concentration of 0.25mg/ml, whereas DL-ADDE-C2C2-PipZ did not have the effect described above. The latter lipid has a much higher pKa (about 7.5) in LNP than the first 3 lipids (about 6.5) so that it is more highly protonated during mixing, possibly indicating that ideal mixing conditions including pH and protonation are not achieved for this lipid. KC2, MC3 and BOD-ADDE-C2C 4-PipZ LNP also increase in potency and may decrease mRNA encapsulation when sodium acetate concentration is reduced from 60mM to 25mM, while DL-ADDE-C2C2-PipZ does not show either effect.
Firefly luciferase assay of mrna delivery efficiency. After 24 hours transfection, the transfected cells were conditioned to room temperature 30 minutes prior to firefly luciferase assay.

ONE-Glo substrates previously conditioned to room temperature for at least 4 hours were added to each untransfected, transfected and Quantilum well at a 1:1 ratio. Assay plates were incubated in the dark for 3 minutes and immediately introduced into a station 5 cell imaging multimode reader (Biotek) to read fluorescence.

Two standard curves were included in the Ribogreen assay, one containing mRNA and 1X TE buffer and the other containing mRNA and Triton buffer. Each of these standard curves was used to calculate mRNA concentrations in the respective TE buffer or Triton buffer. This method of using two standard curves more accurately calculates encapsulation efficiency and mRNA concentration than a single standard curve. After the diluted LNP was added to the plate, standards were included in the microplate. Microplates were incubated at 37 ℃ for 10 minutes to extract LNP with Triton. Ribogreen reagent was diluted 1:100 in 1 XTE buffer and added to each well at a 1:1 ratio. Microplates were immediately introduced into a Cystation 5 cell imaging multimode reader (Biotek) to read fluorescence (Ex 485/Em 528).

Example 13: increasing lipid concentration from 12.5mM to 75mM and mRNA from 0.25mg/ml to 1.5mg/ml increased LNP delivery efficiency in vitro. Further optimization of sodium acetate concentration at any particular mixed concentration resulted in a further increase in LNP efficacy. (study TRANS-34).
Overview: LNP was formulated using a total lipid concentration of 12.5 to 75mM comprising several ionisable species KC2/DL-ADDE-C2C 2-PipZ/BOD-ADDE-C2C 4-PipZ)/DSPC/cholesterol/PEG-DMG (50:10:38.5:1.5 mol%). Each lipid was dissolved in ethanol until a clear solution was observed. The four lipids were combined to obtain a total lipid concentration of 50mM (25/5/19.25/0.75 mM, respectively) and serial dilutions were then performed to reach 12.5mM. To prepare a total lipid concentration of 75mM (37.5/7.5/28.88/1.13 mM, respectively), KC2/DL-ADDE-C2C 2-PipZ/BODA-ADDE-C2C 4-PipZ and cholesterol were first mixed, and the same was true for DSPC and PEG, to dissolve the two solutions in ethanol, and then combined to achieve 75mM.

Purified mRNA was ethanol precipitated, washed and resuspended in nuclease free water to a concentration of 4.4 mg/mL. The NP ratio was kept constant at 4, fluc mRNA stock was diluted in serial dilutions from higher to lower concentration solutions, reaching 0.25 to 1.5mg/ml in 5, 10, 12.5, 25 and 50mM sodium acetate buffer pH 4, 5 or 6, then mixed in Spark NanoAssmblr (Precision NanoSystems), which allowed for higher reproducibility in formulations using microfluidic mixing techniques. Mu.l of the lipid mixture and 32. Mu.l of the mRNA solution were mixed on setting 3 and drained into 48. Mu.l of 1XDPBS pH 7.4. The LNP formed was then diluted into an additional 96. Mu.l of 1XDPBS pH 7.4. LNP was then dialyzed against 1xdpbs pH7.4 for 4x1 hour. LNP was then diluted so that 32ul contained 25-200ng and 12k hek293 cells were transfected at the same dose but made at different concentrations in a microfluidic mixer. LNP efficacy increases at higher mixed concentrations compared to lower mixed concentrations, but can be further increased at each concentration by adjusting the sodium acetate concentration. For example, at 1.5mg/ml mRNA, LNP efficacy increases by a further 44% when sodium acetate is reduced from 50mM to 25 mM. Decreasing sodium acetate concentration from 25mM to 10mM increases efficacy by 2.2X at an mRNA concentration of 0.25 mg/ml. The increase in the mixing concentration and the optimized decrease in the buffer concentration result in an encapsulation efficiency of about 70% lower than that typically obtained in the prior art, wherein encapsulation is erroneously maximized by decreasing the mixing concentration and increasing the buffer concentration. We have also found that increasing pH from 4 to 5 increases efficacy for BOD-ADDE-C2C 4-PipZ. For reasons explained in example 12, DL-ADDE-C2C2-PipZ acts differently.

Overview: LNP was formulated using a total lipid concentration of 5 to 100mM containing ionizable BOD-C2/C4-PipZ/DSPC/cholesterol/PEG-DMG (47:13:37:2 mol%). Each lipid was dissolved in ethanol until a clear solution was observed. The four lipids were combined to obtain a total lipid concentration of 50mM (24/6.5/18.5/1 mM, respectively) and serial dilutions were then performed to achieve 5mM. To prepare a total lipid concentration of 75mM (36/9.75/27.75/1.5 mM, respectively), the ionisable species and cholesterol were first mixed, and the same was true for DSPC and PEG, to dissolve the two solutions in ethanol, and then combined to achieve 75mM. To prepare a total lipid concentration of 100mM (48/13/37/2 mM, respectively), the ionisable and cholesterol were first mixed, and the same was true for DSPC and PEG, to dissolve the two solutions in ethanol, and then combined to achieve 100mM.

Purified mRNA was ethanol precipitated, washed and resuspended in nuclease free water to a concentration of 5.5 mg/mL. The NP ratio was kept constant at 4, fluc mRNA stock was diluted in serial dilutions from higher to lower concentration solutions, reaching 0.1 to 2mg/ml in 5-30mM sodium acetate buffer pH 4, then mixed in Spark NanoAssmblr (Precision NanoSystems), which allowed for higher reproducibility in formulations using microfluidic mixing techniques.

Codon optimized firefly luciferase (Fluc) sequences were cloned into mRNA plasmids (optimized 3 'and 5' utrs and containing 101polyA tails) for co-transcriptional capping, transcribed in vitro using N1 methyl pseudouridine modified nucleosides and cellulose purified to remove dsRNA. Purified mRNA was ethanol precipitated, washed and resuspended in nuclease free water to a concentration of 5.5 mg/mL. The NP ratio was kept constant at 4, fluc mRNA stock was diluted in serial dilutions from higher to lower concentration, reaching 1.5mg/ml in 15mM sodium acetate buffer pH 4, then mixed in Spark NanoAssmblr (Precision NanoSystems), which allowed for higher reproducibility in formulations using microfluidic mixing techniques. Mu.l of the lipid mixture and 32. Mu.l of the mRNA solution were mixed on setting 3 and drained into 48. Mu.l of 1 XDPBS pH 7.4. The LNP formed was then diluted into an additional 96. Mu.l of 1 XDPBS pH 7.4. LNP was then dialyzed against sucrose buffer pH 7.5 for 6x1 hour. Frozen LNP was maintained at-80C for in vivo injection. LNP was then diluted so that 32ul contained 25-200ng and 12k hek293 cells were transfected at the same dose but made at different concentrations in a microfluidic mixer.

Overview: BOD C2/C4 PipZ (C24 PipZ) LNP was formulated using a total lipid concentration of 77mM with DSPC/cholesterol/PEG-DMG (47:13:37:2 mol%). The double lipid stock (ionizable/cholesterol, DSPC/PEG-DMG) was dissolved in ethanol until a clear solution was observed. The four lipids were combined to obtain a 77mM total lipid concentration.

Purified mRNA was ethanol precipitated, washed and resuspended in nuclease free water to a concentration of 5.5 mg/mL. The NP ratio was kept constant at 4, fluc mRNA stock was diluted in serial dilutions from higher to lower concentration solutions, reaching 1.5mg/ml in 15-50mM sodium acetate buffer pH 4, then mixed in Spark NanoAssmblr (Precision NanoSystems), which allowed for higher reproducibility in formulations using microfluidic mixing techniques. In addition, mRNA was diluted in water and the lipid mixture was protonated at different levels of 200% -25% to be mixed later under the same conditions as described above. Mu.l of the lipid mixture and 32. Mu.l of the mRNA solution were mixed on setting 3 and discharged into 48. Mu.l of 1XDPBS pH 7.4. The LNP formed was then diluted into an additional 96. Mu.l of 1XDPBS pH 7.4. LNP was then dialyzed against 1x DPBS pH 7.4 for 6x1 hour. LNP was then diluted so that 32ul contained 25-200ng and 12k hek293 cells were transfected at the same dose but made at different concentrations in a microfluidic mixer.
Firefly luciferase assay of mrna delivery efficiency. After 24 hours transfection, the transfected cells were conditioned to room temperature 30 minutes prior to firefly luciferase assay. Quantilum recombinant luciferase standard curves were prepared in 5-fold serial dilutions in 10% EMEM. 3.9x10 -5 mg/ml to 4.88x10 -3 50ul of standard spots in the mg/ml range were included in the microwell plates as positive enzyme activity controls (data not shown) to maintain linearity of 107 RLU/mg/ml. ONE-Glo substrates previously conditioned to room temperature for at least 4 hours were added to each untransfected, transfected and Quantilum well at a 1:1 ratio. Assay plates were incubated in the dark for 3 minutes and immediately introduced into a station 5 cell imaging multimode reader (Biotek) to read fluorescence.
B: ribogreen assay of mRNA encapsulation efficiency. 1 XTE buffer and Triton buffer (2% v/v in 1 XTE buffer) were added in duplicate to the black microwell plates of each LNP. LNP was diluted to 4ng/ul in 1 XDPBS pH 7.4 and added to each TE/Triton well at a 1:1 ratio. Two standard curves were included in the Ribogreen assay, one containing mRNA and 1X TE buffer and the other containing mRNA and Triton buffer. Each of these standard curves was used to calculate mRNA concentrations in the respective TE buffer or Triton buffer. This method of using two standard curves more accurately calculates encapsulation efficiency and mRNA concentration than a single standard curve. After the diluted LNP was added to the plate, standards were included in the microplate. Microplates were incubated at 37 ℃ for 10 minutes to extract LNP with Triton. Ribogreen reagent was diluted 1:100 in 1 XTE buffer and added to each well at a 1:1 ratio. Microplates were immediately introduced into a Cystation 5 cell imaging multimode reader (Biotek) to read fluorescence (Ex 485/Em 528).
C: LNP-sized dynamic light scattering (red dots are PDI to the right of the y-axis). The dialyzed LNP was diluted to 6.25ng/ul in 1X DPBS pH 7.4 and transferred into a quartz cuvette (ZEN 2112) to measure size by Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) in Zetasizer Nano ZS (Malvern Panalytical) with particle RI of 1.45 and absorption of 0.001 in 1X PBS at 25 ℃, viscosity of 0.88cP and RI of 1.335. Measurements were made using 173 ° backscatter detection angles that were previously repeated twice to equilibrate to 25 ℃ for 30 seconds, each run 5 times and for 10 seconds, with no delay between measurements. Each measurement had a fixed position of 4.65 in a quartz cuvette with automatic decay selection. The data was analyzed using a generic model with normal parsing.
Example 33: for rapid microfluidic mixing, increasing lipid concentration from about 10mM to about 77mM and mRNA from 0.2mg/ml to 1.5mg/ml showed LNP delivery efficiency at different sodium acetate concentrations in vitro. In the absence of any buffer, directly protonating the ionizable lipid prior to mixing with mRNA in water results in improved delivery efficiency in vivo IM and IV injection.
