Abstract

The invention relates to lyospheres comprising gonadotropin, its preparation, as well as to pharmaceutical preparations containing them.

Description

"LIOSFER S THAT UNDERSTAND GONADOTROPHINE" INVENTORS: ARNOLD TITUS PHILIP SKRABANJA and HERMÁN VROMANS, Dutch citizens, residing at eßzßnhof 6209, 6536 AN Nijmßgen, The Netherlands; and Vßrwßrstraat 11, 5343 PB Oss, The Netherlands.
CAUSAHABIENTE: AKZO NOBEL N. V., a Dutch company, with address at Vßlpßrwßg 76, 6824 BM Arnhßm, The Netherlands.
RggUMEN The invention relates to lyospheres comprising jonadotropin, to its preparation, as well as to pharmaceutical preparations containing them.
DESCRIPTIVE MEMORY The invention relates to lyospheres comprising gonadotropin, its preparation, as well as pharmaceutical preparation comprising them. Liospheres are drops dried by freezing. they know the freeze-dried particles as Price's spherical and coinventores (US 3,655,838). These spherical granules comprise material for immunological reactions. The lyospheres comprising biologically active materials are known, for example, from USP 3,932,943, and also from many other patents. The known advantages of liosfer are the uniformity of the particles, the ease of handling the products, the faster freeze drying process, less degradation of the freeze drying process and the improved dissolution properties. Surprisingly, it has now been found that lipospheres comprising gonadotropin have an improved storage life compared to conventionally freeze-dried gonadotropi. In addition, with additional advantages it has been found that the recovery of gonadotropin, after freeze drying of the lyospheres, is better than the recovery after conventional freezing or p freezing, and that the analysis properties are improved.
Therefore, the invention relates to a liosphere comprising a ganadotropirici. Preferably, said gonadotropm is HCG (human gonadotropin), FSH (follicle stimulating hormone) or LH (leutinizing hormone), or a combination thereof. Said gonadotropins can be obtained by isolation from natural sources or by recombinant techniques. Most preferably, said gonadotropin is rec-FSH. The spheres may also comprise pharmaceutically acceptable auxiliaries such as fillers, stabilizers and surfactants. Customary auxiliaries are, for example, sucrose, mannose, dextran, Tween, poly vmylpyrrolidone, sodium citrate and the like. The beads can be prepared by freezing droplets of an aqueous gonadotropy solution which, optionally, also comprises the auxiliaries. To obtain the drops of the required size, the solution can be sprayed in a cold bath (for example, as described in DT 2,140,747, EP 81913, or US 3,928,566), to liquid nitrogen (for example, as described in J5 9169, 504), or towards a refrigerated drum (e.g., as described in USP 3892876), or a chilled plate (e.g., as described in US 4,501,719). Various other methods in the art are well known. The lyospheres of the invention may be processed to a pharmaceutical preparation. The term "pharmaceutical preparation" means an ampoule or syringe or any other means in which the lyospheres can be introduced, and in such a way, can be used by physicians. When the lyospheres comprise FSH or rec-FSH as the gonadotropin, the pharmaceutical preparations comprise 75, 100, 150, 300 and, preferably, 50 international units of FSH. Preferably, each lyosphere comprises a fixed amount of gonadotropin, for example, 50 international units. The determination of the quantity of the international units present in the pharmaceutical preparation can simply be achieved by counting the number of lyospheres. When the liosphere contains hCG or rec-CG as the gonadotropin, the pharmaceutical preparations preferably comprise 1, 2.5, 5, 10 or 5000 IU of the gonadotropin. The lyospheres of the invention can be used for medical applications, when gonadotropins are required. Liospheres containing FSH or rec-FSH are particularly useful for application in IVF (in vitro fertilization). The invention is further illustrated by the following examples.
EXAMPLE 1 Liospheres were prepared in the following manner. The ingredients (gonadotropin and the excipients sucrose, sodium citrate and polysorbate 20) were dissolved in water and diluted to the desired final concentration. The pH was adjusted to 7 using hydrochloric acid and / or sodium hydroxide. After filtration through a disposable 0.2 μm Durapore membrane filter, 100 μl droplets were formed and frozen, for example, in liquid nitrogen. The frozen drops were collected and dried by freezing at -50 ° C, in a manner known per se. Freeze dried droplets (lyospheres) were transferred to a vial or ampoule.
EXAMPLE 2 The recovery of freeze-dried lyospheres and conventional freeze-dried lyospheres was compared by means of EIA (enzyme immunological analysis), using aqueous formulations containing 10 U of rec-HCG.

AXIS 5 A 500 μl solution containing 75 IU of rec-FSH, 5 mg of sucrose, 7.35 mg of sodium citrate and 0.1 mg of palisorbate 20, was freeze-dried conventionally and compared to a 100 μl solution containing 75 LJI of rec-FSH, 25 mg of sucrose, 7.35 mg of sodium citrate and 0.02 mg of pol sorbate 20, which had been freeze-dried with 1 os fera. Both products dried by freezing were stored for six months at 4, 25, 30, 40 and 50CC and for 12 months at 4, 25 and 30 ° C. After six and 12 months, the activity was determined in vitro according to the method of lannatirts et al. In Roland et al.
