Description
60290 STABLE PHARMACEUTICAL PREPARATION CONTAINING GRANULOCYTE COLONY STIMULATING FACTOR AND PROCESS FOR PRODUCING THE SAME The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical 5 preparation containing a granulocyte colony stimulating factor™ In particularf the present invention relates to a stabilised pharmaceutical preparation containing a granulocyte colony stimulating factor that is protected against loss or inactivation of the active component (i.e., granulo-10 cyte colony stimulating factor) due to adsorption on the wall of a container in which the preparation is putP or to association* polymerization or oxidation of said component.
Chemotherapy has been undertaken as one method for treating a variety of infectious diseases but it has 15 recently been found that chemotherapy causes some serious clinical problems such as the generation of drug-resistant organisms, change of causative organisms^ and high side effects., In order to avoid these problems associated with chemotherapy involving the use of therapeutic agents such as 20 antibiotics and bactericides» attempts are being made to use a substance that activates the prophylactic capabilities of the host of an infection-causing organism and thereby providing a complete solution to the aforementioned problems of chemotherapy™ Of the various prophylactic capabilities of 25 the host f the phagocytic bactericidal action of leucocytes is believed to cause the strongest influence in the initial period of bacterial infection and it is therefore assumed to be important to enhance the infection protecting capabilities of the host by promoting the growth of neutrophiles and their differentiation into the mature state. A granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) is one of the very useful substances that exhibit such actions and the same assignee of the present invention previously filed a patent applica-5 tion on an infection protecting agent using G-CSF (Japanese Patent Application No. 23777/19 85).
As mentioned abovechemotherapy as currently practiced involves various unavoidable problems and intensive efforts are being made to use a drug substance that is 10 capable of activating the prophylactic functions of the host or the person who has been infected.
Needless to sayf G-CSF displays by itself the ability to activate the prophylactic functions of the host and it has also been found that G-CSF exhibits greater therapeutic 15 effects in"clinical applications if it is used in combination with a substance that activates th^prophylactic capabilities of the host * G-CSF is used in a very small amount and a pharmaceutical preparation containing 0„ 1 - 500 fig (preferably 20 5 - 50 fug) of G-CSF is usually administered at a dose rate of 1 - 7 times a week per adult. However, G-CSF has a tendency to be adsorbed on the wall of its container such as an ampule for injection or a syringe™ Therefore, if the drug is used as an injection in such a form as an aqueous 25 solution,, it will be adsorbed on the wall of its container such as an ampule or a syringe., This either results in the failure of G-CSF to fully exhibit its activity as a pharmaceutical agent or necessitates the incorporation of G-CSF in a more-than-necessary amount making allowance for its possible loss due to adsorption.
In addition, G-CSF is liable and highly susceptible to environmental factors such as 5 temperature, humidity, oxygen and ultraviolet rays. By the agency of such factors, G-CSF undergoes physical or chemical changes such as association, polymerization and oxidation and suffers a great loss in activity.
These phenomenon make it difficult to ensure complete 10 accomplishment of a therapeutic act by administering a very small amount of G-CSF in a very exact manner.
It is therefore necessary to develop a stable pharmaceutical preparation of G-CSF that is fully protected against a drop in the activity of its 15 effective component.. This is the principal object of the present invention which provides a stable pharmaceutical preparation of G-CSF., The present inventors conducted intensive studies in order to enhance the stability of a G-CSF containing 20 pharmaceutical preparation and found that this object can effectively be attained by addition of a pharmaceutically acceptable surfactant, saccharide, protein or other high-molecular weight compound-According to the present invention, there is 25 provided a stable granulocyte colony stimulating factor containing pharmaceutical preparation that contains, in addition to the granulocyte colony stimulating factor present as the effective ingredient, at least one substance selected from pharmaceutically acceptable 30 surfactants, saccharides, proteins and other high- molecular weight compounds such as natural polymers or synthetic polymers; wherein the granulocyte colony stimulating factor has the following physicochemical properties: (i) molecular weight: about 19,000 ± 1,000 as measured by electrophoresis -5. - through a sodium dodecylsulfate-polyacrylamide gel; (ii) isoelectric point: having at least one of the 5 three isoelectric points, pi = 5.5 ± 0.1, pi = 5.8 ± 0.1, and pi = 6.1 ± 0.1; (iii) ultraviolet absorption: having a maximum absorption at 280 nm and a minimum 10 absorption at 250 ran; (iv) amino acid sequence of the 21 residues from JSI terminus: H2N-Thr-Pro-Leu-Glv-Pro-Ala-Ser-Ser-Leu~Pro-Gln-Ser-Phe-Leu~Leu-Lys-Cys-Leu-Glu~Gln-Val-. 15 The present invention also provides a process for producing a stable granulocyte colony stimulating factor containing pharmaceutical preparation, which process comprises mixing granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) with at least one substance selected 20 from pharmaceutically acceptable surfactants, saccharides, proteins and other high molecular weight substances such as natural polymers and synthetic polymers, dissolving the resulting mixture in a buffer solution, and charging a container with the solution; 25 wherein said G-CSF has the following properties: (i) molecular weight: about 19,000 ± 1,000 as measured by electrophoresis through a sodium dodecylsulfate-30 polyaerylamide gel; (ii) isoelectric point: having at least one of the three isoelectric points, pi = 5.5 ± 0.1, pi = 5.8 ± 0.1, and pi = 6.1 ± 0.1; 35 (iii) ultraviolet absorption: having a maximum absorption at 280 nm and a minimum absorption at 250 nm; (iv) amino acid sequence of the 21 residues from .N terminus: H,N-Thr-Pro~Leu~Gly-Pro~Ala~Ser~Ser-Leu-Pro-Gln-5 Ser-Phe-Leu-Leu-Lys-Cys-Leu-Glu~Gln-Val~.

The stabilized G-CSF pharmaceutical preparation of the present invention may be formulated either for oral administration or for parenteral administration such as by 10 injection applied in various ways, and a variety of dosage forms may be employed depending upon the specific mode of administration™ Typical dosage forms include: those intended for oral administration such as tablets, pills, capsules, granules and suspensions.; solutions, suspensions 15 and freese^arled preparations principally intended for intravenous injection, intramuscular injection, subcutaneous injection and intracutaneous injection; and those /intended for transmucosal administration such as rectal supposito-ries, nasal drugs, and vaginal suppositories. 20 According to the present invention, at least one substance selected from the group consisting of a surfactant,. a saccharide, a protein or a high-molecular weight compound is added to a G-CSF containing pharmaceutical preparation so that it is prevented from being adsorbed on 25 the wall of its container or a syringe while at the same timet it remains stable over a prolonged period of time.
The detailed mechanism by which the substances mentioned above stabilised G-CSF or prevent it from being adsorbed is yet to be clarified,, In the presence of a surfactant, the surface of G-CSF which is a hydrophobic protein would be covered with the surfactant to become solubilised so that the G-CSF present in a trace amount is 5 effectively prevented from being adsorbed on the wall of its container or a syringe, h saccharide or hydrophilic high-molecular weight compound would form a hydrated layer between G-CSF and the adsorptive surface of the wall of its container or a syringe, thereby preventing adsorption 10 of G-CSF in an effective manner.,, ft protein would compete with G-CSF for adsorption on the wall of its container or a syringe, thereby effectively inhibiting adsorption of G-CSF.
Besides the prevention of G-CSF adsorption^ the 15 substances~mentioned above would also contribute to the prevention of association or polymerization molecules of G-CSF. In the presence of a surfactant, saccharide, protein or high-molecular weight compound, the individual molecules of G-CSF are dispersed in these substances and 20 the interaction between the G-CSF molecules is sufficiently reduced to cause a significant decrease in the probability of their association or polymerization™ In addition? these substances would retard the autoxidation of G-CSF that is accelerated under high temperature or humidity or prevent 25 G-CSF from being associated or polymerized as a result of its autoxidation. These effects of retarding autoxidation of G-CSF or preventing it from being associated or polymerized would be further enhanced by addition of an amino - 13 r acid, a sulfurous reducing agent, or an antioxidant.
The problems described above are particularly noticeable in solutions for injecting and in suspensions but they also occur during the process of 5 formulating G-CSF in other dosage forms such as tablets. The addition of surfactants, saccharides, proteins or high-molecular weight compounds is also effective in this latter case.
Through the addition of at least one substance 10 selected from the group consisting of a surfactant, saccharide, protein and a high-molecular weight compound, G-CSF is highly stabilised and maintains its activity for a prolonged period of time, as will be demonstrated in the examples that follow. To attain 15 these results, the following ranges of the amount of each of these substances are desirable: 1 - 10,000 parts by weight of surfactant, 1 - 10,000 parts by weight of saccharide, 1-20F000 parts by weight of protein, and 1 - 20,000 parts by weight of high-20 molecular weight compound, per 1 part by weight of G~ CSF.
According to the present invention, a surfactant, a saccharide, a protein and/or a high-molecular weight compound is used in a specified concentration and this 25 is effective not only in preventing G-CSF from being adsorbed on the wall of its container or a syringe but also in enhancing the stability of a G-CSF containing pharmaceutical preparation. As a result, it becomes possible to ensure the administration of a small but 30 highly precise dose of G-CSF to patients? since G-CSF is costly, its efficient utilization will lead to lower costs for the production of G-CSF containing pharmaceutical preparations.
The following examples are provided for the purpose of further illustrating the present invention but are in no 5 sense to be taken as limiting. In these examples, the residual activity of G-CSF was determined by one of the following methods. (a) Soft acrar method using mouse bone marrow cells: A horse serum (0.4 ml), 0.1 ml of the sample, 0.1 ml 10 of a C3H/He (female) mouse bone marrow,cell suspension (0,5 - 1 x 105 nuclear cells), and 0.,4 ml of a modified McCoy's 5A culture solution containing 0.75% of agar were mixed, poured into a plastic dish for tissue culture (35 mm0) r coagulated, and cultured for 5 days at 37°C in 5% C09/95% 15 air and at~100% humidity. The number of colonies formed was counted (one colony consisting of at le^t 50 cells) and the activity was determined with one unit being the acrtivity for forming one colony.
The modified McCoy9 s 5A culture solution used in the 20 method (a) was prepared by the following procedures.
Modified McCoy's 5A culture solution (double concentration) Twelve grams of McCoy's 5A culture solution (Gibco) e 2.55 g of MEM amino acid-vitamin medium (Nissui Seiyaku Co., Ltd-)* 2.18 g of sodium bicarbonate and 50,000 units of 1 25 potassium penicillin G were dissolved twice in 500 ml of distilled water and the solution was aseptically filtered through a Millipore filter (0.22 f*m). (b) Reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography; Using a reverse-phase C8 column (4.6 mm x 300 mm; 5 |im) and an n-propanol/trifluoroacetic acid mixture as a mobile phase,, the residual activity of G-CSF (injected in an amount equivalent to 1 fig) was determined under the following gradient conditions: Time (sec) Solvent (A) Solvent (B) Gradient 0 100% 0% linear 0% 100% linear 25 100% 0% } } Solvent (A); 30% n-propanol and 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid Solvent (B): 60% n-propanol and 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid Detection was conducted at a wavelength of 210 nm and the percentage of the residual G-CSF activity was calculated 15 by the following formulas the residual, amount of G-CSF Residual G-CSF _ after the lapse of a given time activity (%) the initial amount of G-CSF x The residual amount of G-CSF as determined by this method correlated very well with the result attained in measurement by the soft agar method (a) using mouse bone marrow cells.
