Description
(1) Technical field
The present invention relates to the field of biotechnological pharmaceutical formulations, in particular to pharmaceutical formulations of therapeutic proteins comprising a surfactant which is resistant to degradation and of controlled content.
(2) Background art
The availability of new biopharmaceuticals for patients to treat critical diseases has steadily increased in the last decade from oncology to the various therapeutic areas of metabolic diseases. Accordingly, therapeutic protein drugs, particularly monoclonal antibodies and their related drug classes, such as bispecific antibodies and antibody-conjugated drugs, have been rapidly developed. Thus, maintaining the stability of the biologic during biologic processing, pharmaceutical manufacturing, shipping, storage, and patient administration is critical. There are many mechanisms that may trigger protein aggregates (e.g., hydrophobic binding, chemical modification, and interfacial interactions of partially denatured protein molecules) to form visible and sub-visible particles outside of acceptable standards, thereby affecting product quality. Proteins typically undergo four types of "instability": chemical instability, conformational instability, colloidal instability, and interfacial instability. By reasonable formulation design to remove or mitigate these "instabilities", a protein pharmaceutical product can be obtained that is stable over a long period of time. Therefore, an important process in the development of formulation is the screening of adjuvants in order to obtain protein drugs that are stable as long as possible.
The interface is ubiquitous with proteins, whether during production, transport, storage or clinical administration. Mainly comprises an air/water interface generated during mixing of liquid preparation, an ice/water interface generated during repeated freezing and thawing and a coating material/water interface generated during transportation, wherein the existence of the interfaces can lead to unfolding or adsorption of proteins, thus causing aggregation of the proteins or insufficient actual content of the proteins in the liquid medicine, and simultaneously, other types of instability can be caused. The surfactant is used as an auxiliary material for improving the interfacial stability of protein medicines. Surfactants generally prevent proteins from aggregating by preventing them from entering the hydrophobic interface (glass bottle wall or air interface). There are mainly two possible mechanisms: interface competition mechanisms and surfactant-protein complex mechanisms. The preferential occupation of the surfactant at the interface, compared to the protein molecule, is a thermodynamically more stable state and is related to the kinetic mass. In contrast, surfactant-protein complexation is primarily through direct binding of the surfactant to the exposed hydrophobic surface of the native protein, thereby increasing protein stability. The most commonly used surfactants at present are nonionic surfactants: polysorbates (PS 20 and PS 80) and poloxamers (P188). However, in recent years, it has been shown that polysorbates degrade by various mechanisms such as autoxidation, cleavage of ethylene oxide subunits and hydrolysis of fatty acid ester bonds. The free fatty acid esters also form insoluble particles, which can cause turbidity in the formulation. These all affect the activity and stability of protein drugs. While work has shown and can mitigate degradation of polysorbates in formulations by the addition of antioxidants, the choice of surfactants in formulation formulations still presents a great challenge, as their degradation is likely to be due to the presence of lipases in host cells.
The antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) combines the high specificity of monoclonal antibody drugs with the high activity of small molecule cytotoxic drugs, so as to improve the targeting of tumor drugs and reduce the toxic and side effects. Compared to traditional fully or partially humanized antibodies or antibody fragments, ADCs are theoretically more therapeutic due to their ability to release highly active cytotoxins in tumor tissue. It has higher tolerance or lower side effects than the fusion protein. The accurate identification of the ADC drug to the target spot and the noninjugated cell are not affected, so that the drug effect is greatly improved, the toxic and side effects are reduced, and the attention of the personnel in the field of medicine research and development is rapidly developed in recent years. Due to the special composition structure of the ADC, the ADC is not completely similar to a pure protein drug when the ADC is subjected to preparation development. The corresponding monoclonal antibody (mAb) moiety in ADC is typically stored at-70 ℃ after production and purification, whereby the mAb intermediate undergoes a series of powerful conditions of bulk freeze thawing, stirring, contact with small amounts of organic solvents, etc. during conjugation with small molecule drugs, which presents a major challenge for the stability of the mAb intermediate. For mAb intermediates with poor stability, it is generally necessary to add higher concentrations of surfactant to ensure stability of the protein during this series of processes. However, the addition of conventional surfactants causes the following two problems: 1. in view of the higher molecular weight of polysorbates (PS 20 and PS 80) and poloxamers (P188), it is difficult to remove them by the subsequent UF/DF (ultrafiltration/diafiltration) step, and thus the surfactant content in the formulation is difficult to determine; 2. residual surfactant may have an effect on the coupling efficiency of the ADC. Thus, there is a need in the art to find surfactants that can stabilize mAb intermediates, do not degrade themselves, and can be removed by UF/DF steps.

It is worth mentioning that all formulations showed visible particles at T0, possibly due to aggregation of the proteins under strong conditions of blowing, filtering, etc., which also show some anomalies in the protein concentration at T0, due to the presence of visible particles affecting the measurement of the concentration. After standing at 25 ℃ for four weeks, the production of a large number of visible particles was also observed. Protein concentration and pH showed significant changes after four weeks of standing at T0 and 25 ℃. The SEC results show that the phosphate buffer system and high H (more than or equal to 6.0) can cause strong aggregation of the protein, and the citrate system and the histidine system can better perform, and the stability of the protein in the histidine salt (pH 5.5) buffer system is considered to be optimal according to the condition that the SEC main peak is reduced after the SEC buffer system is placed at 25 ℃ for four weeks.
EXAMPLE 2 screening of different stabilizers
According to the screening result of the buffer salt system, 20mM histidine hydrochloride/histidine and pH 5.5 are selected for auxiliary material screening. The auxiliary materials are selected from common several kinds of auxiliary materials including salts (L-arginine hydrochloric acid), sugar alcohols (sucrose and sorbitol) and surfactants (PS 80, PS20 and P188. Five formulas are designed for the auxiliary materials and the type of the surfactants, the auxiliary materials are placed at 300rpm and 25 ℃ in a shaking way, samples are taken at different time points for each detection, the specific formula design and the investigation scheme are shown in a table 5, wherein the protein concentration is 10mg/mL. The detection items comprise appearance observation, pH measurement, concentration measurement, SEC-HPLC and MFI, and the detection results are shown in tables 5 to 9.

The appearance results showed that all of the formulation solutions were colorless, micro-opalescent solutions. A large amount of visible particles appeared in the formulation without the addition of surfactant after T0 and three days of shaking, but no visible particles were observed in the formulation with the addition of surfactant. The proteins of all formulations showed no significant change in concentration, pH, and SEC results after shaking for three days. The MFI results are consistent with the appearance observations, and the particles are significantly reduced compared to the surfactant-added formulation. The above results demonstrate that surfactants play a critical role in the stabilization of the protein.
Example 3 comparison of the protective Effect of different surfactants
For some mAb intermediates, surfactant residues may make the surfactant content of the formulation difficult to determine and may have an impact on the coupling efficiency of the ADC. Therefore we have used a surfactant of lower molecular weight to investigate whether it has the effect of protecting the protein. The protective effect of the screened surfactants including polysorbate 20 (PS 20), polysorbate 80 (PS 80), poloxamer 188 (P188) and various concentrations of octyl- β -D-glucopyranoside (OGP) in a buffer system containing 8% sucrose, 20mM histidine/histidine hydrochloride, pH 5.5, was compared, and the detection items including appearance, pH measurement, concentration measurement, SEC-HPLC, and MFI were shown in table 10.

As can be seen from the MFI results of the different surfactant stabilized proteins, the novel surfactant OGP has a comparable protective effect on proteins compared to the surfactants PS80, PS20 and P188 commonly used in formulation development. Thus, the appropriate concentration of the novel surfactant OGP is explored next.
Four formulations were designed together for surfactant concentration screening experiments. The samples were taken at various time points for each test at 300rpm,25℃shaking-placed, -70℃C/room temperature freeze-thaw test, the specific formulation design and test protocol are shown in Table 11, with protein concentration of 10mg/mL. The test items include appearance observation, pH measurement, concentration measurement, SEC-HPLC, MFI, and the test results are shown in tables 12 to 15.

Table 15 buffer system screening MFI test results summary
Proteins of all formulations showed no significant change in concentration, pH, and SEC results after five rounds of freeze thawing and three days of shaking. The appearance results showed that all of the formulation solutions were colorless, micro-opalescent solutions. The appearance results were consistent with the MFI results, and an interesting phenomenon was observed, the protein stabilizing effect did not increase with increasing OGP concentration. Formulations containing 0.8% ogp produced a large amount of visible particles after five rounds of freeze thawing and three days of shaking, whereas formulations containing 0.05% ogp did not observe visible particle production. The above results demonstrate that the more surfactant content is not effective in stabilizing the protein and that the lower the level the more effective the protein is.
Example 4 comparison of effects of different surfactants on drug to antibody ratio (DAR)
The extent of effect of the surfactant octyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside (OGP) on the drug/antibody ratio (DAR) was investigated by comparison in a buffer system comprising 8% sucrose, 20mM histidine/histidine hydrochloride, pH 5.5, and the detection term included hydrophobic interaction chromatography-DAR (HIC-DAR). The results show that under the buffer system, the average DAR value is 1.62, which is close to the target DAR, and the effect of octyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside (OGP) on the coupling efficiency of the drug is small.
Example 5 comparison of the removal rates of different surfactants via UF/DF step
The removal rates of the different surfactants via the UF/DF steps were compared in a buffer system containing 8% sucrose, 20mM histidine/histidine hydrochloride, pH 5.5, and the screened surfactants included polysorbate 20 (PS 20), polysorbate 80 (PS 80), poloxamer 188 (P188), octyl- β -D-glucopyranoside (OGP), the test items included PS80 assay, P188 assay, and octyl- β -D-glucopyranoside (OGP) assay, and the test results are shown in table 16. Wherein the cleaning efficiency is the ratio of the concentration of the surfactant after UF/DF to the concentration of the surfactant T0.
The results show that octyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside (OGP) can be removed through UF/DF, so that the coupling efficiency of the subsequent ADC drugs is avoided, but polysorbate 20 (PS 20), polysorbate 80 (PS 80) and poloxamer 188 (P188) cannot be removed well through the UF/DF steps.
Example 6 mechanism exploration of OGP surfactant stabilization of therapeutic proteins
In example 3, it was found that the protective effect of OGP on the protein was not positively correlated with the concentration of OGP, which led the inventors to study the mechanism of OGP stabilization of the protein. Here, bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) was used as a model protein. In the field of colloidal chemistry, pyrene probes are commonly used to characterize the overall process of micelle formation of surfactant molecules [1] (Ba-Salem AO, duhamel J.Synthesis and Characterization of a Pyrene-Labeled Gemini Surfactant Sensitive to the Polarity of Its environmental.Langmuir.2021 Nov 30;37 (47): 13824-13837.doi:10.1021/acs.langmuir.1c01759.Epub 2021 Nov 18.). When the concentration of pyrene molecules in the solution is lower than 10 -5 M, excited state fluorescence having a fine structure is observed, and pyrene molecules have a plurality of fluorescence emission peaks. Wherein the ratio of fluorescence intensities of the first peak (373 nm) and the third peak (384 nm) is very sensitive to the polarity of the microenvironment in which the pyrene molecule is located, commonly referred to as the hydrophobic factor (I) 1 /I 3 ). The smaller the hydrophobic factor, the more hydrophobic the microenvironment in which the pyrene molecule is located. Pyrene probes were intended to assess the interaction of BSA with OGP.
FIG. 1 shows the hydrophobic factor (I 1 /I 3 ) Curves as a function of the concentration of surfactant OGP. As shown in FIG. 1, the black squares indicate a simple OGP solution, I when no OGP molecules are present in the solution 1 /I 3 The ratio is 1.8, I is the beginning 1 /I 3 The slow decrease with increasing OGP concentration indicates that surfactant molecules begin to adsorb at the interface in the solution. With increasing OGP monomer and when the concentration reaches a certain value, I 1 /I 3 The decrease was rapid, indicating a gradual increase in the surfactant number at the interface. Then gradually reach the platform, indicating that the OGP molecules form micelles. This process is a process that reflects the overall process of forming micelles by surfactant molecules using the gradual transfer of pyrene molecules from bulk solution to the micelle core. While the red dots are shown in the tableIt is clear that the OGP solution with BSA added, I 1 /I 3 The profile as a function of OGP concentration is different from that of a single surfactant solution. When the OGP concentration is low, the addition of BSA results in I 1 /I 3 The ratio is very low, which is a result of the BSA. When the concentration reaches a certain value I 1 /I 3 Increasing the concentration of OGP corresponding to the concentration of the protein and I in a pure OGP system 1 /I 3 The concentration at the beginning of the decrease was substantially the same. This suggests that the surfactant molecules associate around the protein by hydrophobic interactions, squeezing pyrene molecules out of the hydrophobic domains of the protein, thus I 1 /I 3 The ratio increases. When the combination of the surfactant molecules on the macromolecules reaches saturation, as the concentration continues to increase, the surfactant molecules start to form normal micelles, and the pyrene molecules are solubilized again in the hydrophobic domains of the pre-micelles, thus I 1 /I 3 The ratio again begins to decrease. Finally form micelle I 1 /I 3 The ratio no longer changes. This result suggests that the mechanism by which OGP stabilizes proteins may be through binding to proteins.
Fig. 2 shows BSA fluorescence spectra in the presence of different concentrations of OGP molecules. From FIG. 2, it can be seen that the fluorescence intensity of BSA decreases with increasing OGP concentration, while the peak position shifts blue (peak position shifts blue from 347nm to 335 nm). Literature [2] (Wen L, lyu M, xiao H, lan H, zuo Z, yin Z.J.Protein Aggregation and Performance Optimization Based on Microconformational Changes of Aromatic Hydrophobic regions.mol pharm.2018;15 (6): 2257-2267.Doi:10.1021/acs.mol pharmacea.8 b 00115) shows that the blue shift of the fluorescence peak indicates that the protein is turning into a more hydrophobic environment. Based on structural and sequence analysis of BSA, OGP molecules may be bound near tryptophan residues in BSA, resulting in increased hydrophobicity of the environment surrounding the tryptophan residues. As the OGP concentration further increases to approach the critical micelle concentration, at this point the binding of the OGP molecules to BSA becomes saturated and no more OGP molecules bind, and thus the fluorescence intensity no longer changes and the peak position no longer blue shifts.
To further verify the conclusion, an iodide quenching experiment was performed. The principle is that iodide ions can only react with tryptophan residues located on the surface of the protein as a quencher, and cannot quench tryptophan residues inside the protein. According to the Stern-Volmer quenching equation:
F 0 /(F-F 0 )=1/(f 0 K[I - ])+1/f 0
wherein K is a Stern-Volmer constant; f is the fluorescence intensity in the presence of iodide ions; f (F) 0 Fluorescence intensity in the absence of iodide ions; f (f) 0 Tryptophan residues which are quenched by iodide ions, in proportion to the total residues; [ I ]]Iodine ion concentration.
FIG. 3 shows the degree of fluorescence quenching of iodide ions as a function of iodide ion concentration. Analysis found that the slope of the change in iodide fluorescence plotted against iodide concentration indicates the proportion of tryptophan residues quenched by iodide to total residues. FIG. 3 shows the effect of iodide on BSA fluorescence intensity with and without OGP. The slope of the red dot curve is higher than the slope of the black square curve indicating that the addition of OGP increases the proportion of tryptophan residues on the BSA surface.
Since there is a large hydrophobic cavity in the BSA molecule, almost all of the hydrophobic residues are located inside the hydrophobic cavity, and tryptophan in the BSA molecule is located just inside the hydrophobic cavity, it is highly likely that the OGP molecule enters the hydrophobic cavity inside the BSA molecule and interacts with the hydrophobic residues inside the cavity by hydrophobic forces, resulting in a decrease in the number of internal residues and thus an increase in the relative number of tryptophan residues on the surface. It was concluded that the binding sites of OGP molecules are located within the hydrophobic cavity of BSA, which is similar to the binding behavior of many nonpolar small molecule ligands. Thus we believe that the interaction between the OGP molecule and the protein may be similar to the interaction between P188 and the protein, both interacting with the protein, inhibiting aggregation while reducing adsorption at the interface.
The research results show that the liquid preparation prepared from the surfactant OGP, the buffer solution and the stabilizer and the therapeutic protein, particularly the monospecific antibody, the bispecific antibody and the antibody coupling drug with poor stability, has better stability. The surfactant OGP can be removed in the UF/DF step, and the protein medicine is stabilized on the premise of not influencing the quality of finished products of the preparation and the antibody ratio (DAR), and the stability of the protein medicine can be maintained under the conditions of high-temperature acceleration, long-term refrigeration, repeated freezing and thawing and the like, so that the clinical use safety is improved, and the storage time is prolonged.
