Definitions
- the invention relates to microspheres, especially to nanospheres and to pharmaceutical compositions containing such particles , loaded with drug compounds.
- An important objective in current drug therapy is the selective delivery of drugs to a specific target site in the body. Adverse reactions and unwanted side effects could be avoided and highly bioactive drugs like analogs of hormones (LH-RH) or cytokines(interleukines, interferons, tumour necrosis factors) entrapped in colloidal carriers could be delivered to their site of action.
- LH-RH hormones
- cytokines(interleukines, interferons, tumour necrosis factors) entrapped in colloidal carriers could be delivered to their site of action.
- the mononuclear phagocyte system (MPS) however is one of the major obstacles to prolonged circulation of colloidal carriers in blood. This disadvantage is a common feature of all particulate carriers unless they are modified appropriately to circumvent the host's defence system.
- Proteins covalently modified with PEG derivatives have shown decreased immunogenicity and clearance in vivo. J. Control. Rel. 11 , p. 139-140, (1990). These interesting properties of PEG may be combined with a chemically and physically stable carrier system, albumin microspheres, which are known to be biodegradable. Albumin micropsheres are acceptable for human application. The surface of chemically crosslinked albumin nanospheres provides suitable functionalities for chemical modification, as shown in Fig.1.
- the invention provides intemally cross-linked albumin microspheres, especially nanospheres, their surface being modified by attachment of polyoxy(C 1 . 4 )alkylene chains having a terminal ether group.
- polyoxy(C 1 . 4 )alkylene chains having a terminal ether group For example their surface has been modified by covalent attachment of poly(ethylene)glycol or polyoxyethylene amine having one terminal ether group (see Figure 1).
- the polyoxyalkylene moieties have preferably a molecular weight of from 120 to 40.000 daltons, e.g. 500 to 10.000 daltons, especially 5000 daltons.
- the albumin substance is preferably human serum albumin, bovine serum albumin or egg albumin cross-linked by an aliphatic dialdehyde, e.g. glutaraldehyde, glyoxyl, dimethylglyoxal or ketones, e.g. 2,3-butane dione, esters, e.g. ethylene glycol bis- succin-imidyi-succinate, acid chlorides, e.g. terephthalic acid dichloride and diisocyanates, e.g. toluene diisocyanate, or by di-, tri- and tetravalent metallic cations or by heat (90-170"C, 10-60 min). [Tomlinson. E and Burger. J. (1987) in Ilium L. Davis S.S. (ed), Wright, pp 25-48]. These methods may be effected in conventional manner.
- an aliphatic dialdehyde e.g. glutaraldehyde, g
- the polyoxyalkylene moiety may be reacted with the surface carboxylic acid and amino groups e.g. by condensation with an appropriate functional group, e.g. amino or alcohol group in the presence of a condensation agent e.g. 1 , 1 - c a r b o n y l d i i m i d a z o l a n d N - ( 3 - d i - m e t h y l - aminopropyl)-N'-ethylcarbodiimidehydrochloride (EDC).
- a condensation agent e.g. 1 , 1 - c a r b o n y l d i i m i d a z o l a n d N - ( 3 - d i - m e t h y l - aminopropyl)-N'-
- the protecting terminal ether group is preferably an (C, alkyl ether, e.g. a methylether group.
- the presence of the terminal ether group is a preferred measure for the preparation of the modified microspheres. Without its presence unprotected poly(ethylene)glycol or poiyoxyethyleneamine used for the preparation of the modified microspheres would be bifunctional and thus cross-link the nanospheres externally to a compact water insoluble useless mass.
- Phagocytic uptake of colloidal carriers can be quantified by several methods, [Jungi T W, (1988) In: Pal SB (ed.) Macmillan Press, pp. 31-55].
- the oxidative burst of polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) following phagocytosis is a convenient model to study factors influencing this defence mechanism against particulate foreign material.
- the oxidative burst leads to the production of peroxide radicals which are quantified by chemiiuminescence, [Allen R C, Loose L D (1976) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Com. 69: 245-252].
- albumin microspheres were changed by covalently coupling mPEG to their surface in order to reduce phagocytic uptake.
- intemally cross-linked albumin microspheres are described, bound via a spacer, e.g. a shorter or longer bifunctional polyoxyethylene chain, to a galactose group, used for liver specific drug targeting.
- a spacer e.g. a shorter or longer bifunctional polyoxyethylene chain
- a galactose group used for liver specific drug targeting.
- a pharmacologically active substance e.g. the antitumor compound 5-fluorouracil is incorporated for the treatment of liver cancer.
- the polyoxyethylene spacer is not used for an improved resistance against phagocytes and thus a prolonged residence in the blood circulation, but mainly for providing a better flexibility between the albumin and the galactose group and thus less steric hindrance and thus for improving the binding capacity of the galactose part to the asialoglycoprotein receptors of hepatocytes.
- a central nucleus preferably an intemally cross-linked albumin, is described, bound to antibodies, e.g. antifibrin antibodies, and to drug substances, e.g. thrombolytic agents e.g. streptokinase, each via bifunctional dextran or polyoxyethylene groups e.g. for the treatment of fibrin clots.
- antibodies e.g. antifibrin antibodies
- drug substances e.g. thrombolytic agents e.g. streptokinase
- the drug substance is thus externally bound to cross-linked albumin.
- the macromolecular complex is provided with a detectable marker, e.g. a radioactive isotope, preferably introduced into the albumin part.
- a detectable marker e.g. a radioactive isotope
- the complex is contacted and binded via the antibody part with the target and the bound complex is detected, thereby measuring the residence time of the complex at the target site, not primarily the residence time of free, unbounded complex in the blood circulation (see claim 39, page 35, lines 28-34 and page 36, lines 1-5).
- a direct measure just as according to the invention to enlargen the resistance to phagocytes and to prolong the residence time in the blood with a monofunctional polyoxyethylene group on the surface of the albumin part of the macro-molecular complex, is not taken.
- Crosslinking was then inititated by adding 0.2 ml of glutaraldehyde- saturated methylene chloride and accomplished by stirring the emulsion during 60 min. After washing with methanol, acetone and finally with n-hexan, the particles were isolated as free flowing brownish powder wich was dried under high vacuum for 24 h. The diameters of the nanospheres were measured by photon correlation spectrometry (Zetasizer III, Malvem Instr. Ltd.Malvern, FRG).
- Albumin microspheres containing octreotide were prepared according to the procedure outlined in Example 1 with the additional measure that 0.05 g octreotide/g albumin was dissoved in the aqueous albumin phase.
- Albumin microsphrere ⁇ containing IL-6 were prepared in the manner according to Example 2 using 0.05 g IL-6 /g albumin.
- particles with diameters larger than 200 nm can be produced by reducing the emulsifying intensity e.g. by replacing the high energy ultrasonic processor by a 4-bladed impeller and using higher concentrations of albumin (e.g. 10 - 25 % mV).
- the electrophoretic mobility of the particles was determined by Laser Doppler Anemometry (Zetasizer III, Malvern Instr. Ltd.Malvern, FRG) and transformed to a zeta potential using the Smoluchowski equation . These measurements were performed (in quadruplicate) in a diluted phosphate buffer saline solution with anionic strength of 0.002 M and a pH of 7.4 at 25 * C.Results are the mean and standard deviation of five measurements. The morphology of the spheres was observed by scanning electron microscopy (Stereoscan 180, Cambridge.UK).
- m-PEG Coupling of mPEG to amino residues, [Beauchamp CO, Gomas SL, Menapace DP, Pizzo SV (1983) Anal. Biochem. 131 : 25-33], m-PEG was activated by 1 ,1'-carbonyldiimidazol in THF under argon at 40 ° C for 12 hr. To this solution a suspension of nanoparticles in THF and triethylamine were added. The reaction was carried out at 60°C under argon and while stirring.
- the PEG-modified nanoparticles were isolated by centrifugation (47800g, 10 min) (Sorvall RC>-5B, Sorvall, Wilmington, U.S.A) and several washing steps in methanol. Finally the nanospheres were collected on a 0.1 m filter and dried under high-vacuum for 24 hours.
- Phagocytosis in vitro Fresh human PMNs from healthy donors were prepared by separation on a percoll gradient [Hansel T T, De Vries I J M, Iff T, Rihs S, Wandzilak M, Betz S, Blaser K, Walker C (1991), J. Immunol. Methods 145: 105-110] and diluted with hanks' buffered salt solution (HBSS). The cell number was adjusted to 7x10 6 cells /ml. Cell preparations were counted on an automated cell counter (Microcell Counter CC-18,Sysmex,Japan).
- Cytospins were prepared on a Shandon Cytospin 2 (Shandon.U.K.) and stained with the May-Gr ⁇ nwald-Giemsa method prior to light microscopic cell differentiation.
- the preparation of PMNs was of 96%-98% purity.
- HBSS and phosphate buffered saline (PBS) was enriched with 2% foetal calf serum (FCS).
- the stock solution of Lucigenin was made by dissolving in HBSS to a final concentration of 2.5x10-4 M.
- To measure the chemiluminescence 100 microliter of lucigeninsolution, 100 microliter of particles and 50 microliter of cellsuspension were added to one well of a 96-weil plate (Dynatech, FRG) and the measurement in a MTP-Reader (Hamamatsu Photonics Deutschland GMBH) at 37°C was immediatly started. In general the chemiluminescence (CL) was measured during 40 min with a sampling time of 10 sec. Each experiment was performed quadruplicate (4 wells).
- the relative standard deviation of the mean was about 5%.
- the cellresponse was taken as background and subtracted for each experiment from the CL time profile of the particle assays.
- the intensity/time profiles were analysed using the MTP-Reader software and the AUC (arbitrary units) was calculated as the time integral of CL emission accumulated over 40 min.
- Unmodified albumin nanoparticles showed an average diameter of 220 nm, whereas particles with mPEG attached to amino- and carboxylic groups showed an increase of 44nm in mean diameter with no change in polydispersity (Fig. 2). No difference in morphology of the spheres was detected by scanning electron microscopy.
- This gradual decrease of zeta potential relates to increased polymer layer thickness based on increasing chain length of PEG.
- the polymer layer shifts the plane of shear of the diffuse layer to a larger distance from the particle surface which results in a decrease of the measured zeta potential [Napper D H, Netschey A J (1971) Colloid and Interface Science 37: 528-535].
- a higher steric barrier activity is observed with increasing chain lenght of PEG.
- mPEGamine was linked with free carboxylic acid residues on the surface of previously with mPEG-5000 modified particles. This procedure resulted in a 94% (35 mV) reduction of the zeta potential (Fig. 3).
- This additional treatment of the carboxylic acid residues with mPEG led to a nearly complete screening of the surface charge.
- Direct modification of the carboxylic groups of the particles with EDC without previous attachment of mPEG to the amino groups was followed by interparticulate crosslinking and agglomeration. Hence quenching the amino groups with mPEG causes steric stabilization and prevents interactions between particles during further chemical modifications.
- Measuring the phagocytic activity of PMNs by a chemiluminescence assay does not require labelling of the particles with fluorescent dyes or radioactive compounds and therefore possible particle surface alterations can be avoided.
- CL was used to monitor time-dependent phagocytic uptake. With regard to reducing the volumes of human blood required for the assay and getting a sufficient sensible response 350O00 cells per well were chosen.
- the CL response expressed as AUC showed for mPEG-750 modified particles a reduction of 13% compared to unmodified particles. Particles grafted with mPEG-2000 showed a 76%, those with mPEG-5000 a 85% decrease respectively. Additional treatment of the mPEG-5000 particles with mPEGamine led to a striking reduction of 92% of the CL response (Fig. 5).
- Other studies of liposomal formulations with different molecular weights of PEG [Mori A, Klibanov A L, Torchilin V P, Huang L (1991) FEBS Letters 284: 263-266] confirm the observations that the shielding effect of lower molecular weights of PEG was not as effective as higher ones.
- Blood level curves of albumin nanoparticles marked with 125 iodine, having a mean diameter of 180 nanometer, modified with PEG-5000 and with mPEG -5000 -amine were during at least 1 hour significantly different from corresponding curves of unmodified nanoparticles (see Fig. 6).
- Albumin nanoparticles generally show a light accumulation in special body organs, liver, spleen, and also the bone marrow which last phenomenon is of interest for cytokines, and other immune modulating substances, if incorporated in the nanoparticles.
- the modified microspheres according to the invention preferably contain pharmacologically active agents. They are used for sustained release and selective delivery of the agents to a specific target site in the body, e.g. the bone marrow.

- the invention therefor provides also pharmaceutical compositions containing pharmacologically active agents in intemally cross-linked albumin microspheres, their surface being modified by attachment of polyoxy(C 1 . 4 )alkylene chains having a terminal ether group.
- the formulations may be used for the known indications of the particular drug compound incorporated therein and may have a depot function.

- cytostatic treatment e.g. cytokines esp. interleukins (IL-3, IL-6) or a lipid derivative e.g. the compound described in EP 0309411 , especially in Example 1 ,
- cancer treatment e.g. with octreotide, cytokines esp. interleukins, and anti- tumor compounds,
- the exact amounts of drug compound and of the depot formulation to be administered depends on a number of factors, e.g. the condition to be treated, the desired duration of treatment, the rate of release of drug compound and the degradability of the albumin matrix.
- the desired formulations may be produced in known manner.
- the amount of the pharmacologically active agent required and the release rate thereof may be determined on the basis of known in vitro or in vivo techniques, e.g. how long a particular active agent concentration in the blood plasma remains at an acceptable level.
- the degradability of the matrix may also be obtained by in vitro or especially in vivo techniques, for example wherein the amount of matrix materials is determined by measuring the amount of radio-active label in the organs.
- the formulations of the invention may be administered, e.g. subcutaneously or intramuscularly, preferably as intravenous suspensions, particularly as a suspension in a suitable liquid carrier.
