在美國,年齡相關性黃斑變性(age-related macular degeneration;AMD)係52歲或以上人群中發生不可逆中心視覺損失之主要原因,且該疾病係美國、加拿大(Canada)、英國(Great Britain)及澳大利亞(Australia)最常見之失明原因。AMD涵蓋在受影響個體之黃斑中發展之若干類型之異常。有兩種形式黃斑變性的存在:乾型(亦稱為萎縮性)及濕型(亦稱為盤狀、滲出性、視網膜下新生血管或脈絡膜新生血管)。乾型形式可能為濕型形式之前體,其係黃斑之色素上皮無法去除因視網膜生成之廢物所造成。濕型形式係在視網膜下面生長新血管發生,特定而言是黃斑。 角鯊胺(IUPAC名稱:(硫酸氫[6-[(3S,5R,7R,10S,13R,14S)-3-[3-(4-胺基丁基胺基)丙基胺基]-7-羥基-10,13-二甲基-2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,11,12,14,15,16,17-十四氫-lH-環戊[a]菲-17-基]-2-甲基庚-3-基]酯)係展現抗血管生成性質之胺基固醇,其已以靜脈內輸注液形式用於有效治療濕型AMD,其中其係用於防止視網膜中表徵疾病進展之新生血管形成及異常血管形成(Sills Jr.等人,「Squalamine Inhibits Angiogenesis and Solid Tumor Growth in Vivo Perturbs Embryonic Vasculature」, Cancer Research 58: 2784-2792 (1998);Higgins等人,「 Squalamine Improves Retinal Neovascularization」, Investigative Ophthalmology & Visual Science 41(6): 1507-1512 (2000);PRNEWSWIRE, 「Genaera Reports Squalamine Continues to Improve Vision at Four Months Timepoint in Age-Related Macular Degeneration」, http://www.eyesightnews.com/topic/28.html (2003年10月7日))。角鯊胺係頒予Zasloff等人之美國專利第5,192,756號之標的,其揭示內容係以全文引用方式併入本文中。角鯊胺之總化學合成闡述於美國專利第6,262,283號及第6,610,866號中,該等案件係以全文引用方式併入本文中。 從患者使用及風險之角度來看,顯然是期望局部調配物可直接施加至眼睛,而不是靜脈內輸注,或尤其需要每月直接注射至眼睛中之當前照護標準。與侵襲性較強之技術(例如玻璃體內注射)相比,呈(例如)溶液、懸浮液、乳霜或軟膏形式之局部調配物易於由患者自投與,該等侵襲性較強之技術需要在醫學監督下成本較高的投與且其會引起嚴重併發症(例如眼內炎及視網膜脫落)。然而,眼部滴眼劑一般問題係在於在其投與後,通常滴眼劑中不到5%之藥物穿透角膜且到達眼內組織。而是,所投與劑量之主要部分因溶液排出及全身吸收而消除(Jarvinen K.等人,「Ocular absorption following topical delivery」, Adv.Drug Deliv. Rev. 16(1): 3-19 (1995);Conroy C.W., 「Sulfonamides do not reach the retina in therapeutic amounts after topical application to the cornea」, Ocul. Pharmacol. Ther. 13(5): 465- 472 (1997);及Maurice D.M., 「Drug delivery to the posterior segment from drops」, Surv. Ophthalmol. 47(增刊1): S41- S52 (2001))。 另外,用於測試角鯊胺藉由IV輸注治療AMD之效能之先前臨床試驗揭露長期使用之潛在問題。使用藥物代謝動力學分析,IV調配物之靜脈內投藥方案被認為是次佳的,且其因為各種原因在商業基礎上係不可行的。舉例而言,人類個體在40 mg劑量下角鯊胺之短血漿半衰期導致在4至6天後脈絡膜中之濃度不足以阻斷脈絡膜新生血管形成(CNV)。當投藥間隔為每月「維持」輸注時,可能僅存在最長一週之CNV抑制,隨後三週或更長時間之活性新血管生成。此方案在投與的前四週至五週後在視覺敏銳度方面產生良好增加,隨後在第五週後產生改良之速率下降。靜脈內投藥造成局部輸注位點反應(投藥較在局部調配物中使用之劑量高幾個數量級)。在「現實世界」情形中,期望患有濕型AMD之老年患者能夠每週訪視診所以進行延長時間輸注係不切實際的。大多數視網膜眼科實務上亦未設置用於該等靜脈內輸注。 與靜脈內投藥相關之上文所指示缺點相比,本發明是為供局部投與之安全且非刺激之眼部調配物之發現,該調配物能夠達成治療劑選擇性地遞送至眼睛之後部,以用於治療病症。In the United States, age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of irreversible central visual loss in people aged 52 years or older, and the disease is in the United States, Canada, Great Britain, and The most common cause of blindness in Australia (Australia). AMD covers several types of abnormalities that develop in the macula of affected individuals. There are two forms of macular degeneration: dry (also known as atrophic) and wet (also known as discoid, exudative, subretinal neovascularization or choroidal neovascularization). The dry form may be a wet form precursor, which is a pigmented epithelium of the macula that cannot be removed from waste generated by the retina. The wet form is the growth of new blood vessels under the retina, in particular the macula. Squalamine (IUPAC name: (hydrogen sulfate [6-[(3S,5R,7R,10S,13R,14S)-3-[3-(4-aminobutylamino)propylamino]-7 -hydroxy-10,13-dimethyl-2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,11,12,14,15,16,17-tetradecahydro-lH-cyclopenta[a] Phenanthroline-yl-2-methylheptan-3-yl] ester is an amine steroid exhibiting anti-angiogenic properties, which has been used in the form of intravenous infusion for the effective treatment of wet AMD, wherein Used to prevent neovascularization and abnormal angiogenesis in the retina that characterize disease progression (Sills Jr. et al., "Squalamine Inhibits Angiogenesis and Solid Tumor Growth in Vivo Perturbs Embryonic Vasculature", Cancer Research 58: 2784-2792 (1998); Higgins Et al., "Squalamine Improves Retinal Neovascularization", Investigative Ophthalmology & Visual Science 41(6): 1507-1512 (2000); PRNEWSWIRE, "Genaera Reports Squalamine Continues to Improve Vision at Four Months Timepoint in Age-Related Macular Degeneration", http ://www.eyesightnews.com/topic/28.html (October 7, 2003)). The squalamine is awarded to the US Patent No. 5,192,756 by Zasloff et al. The disclosures are hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety, the entire disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety in U.S. Pat. From the standpoint, it is clear that it is desirable that the topical formulation can be applied directly to the eye rather than intravenously, or in particular the current standard of care that is directly injected into the eye each month. Invasive techniques (eg, intravitreal injection) In contrast, topical formulations in the form of, for example, solutions, suspensions, creams or ointments are readily self-administered by the patient, and such aggressive techniques require costly administration under medical supervision and It can cause serious complications (such as endophthalmitis and retinal detachment). However, the general problem of eye drops is that after they are administered, usually less than 5% of the eye drops penetrate the cornea and reach the eye. organization. Rather, the major portion of the dose administered is eliminated by solution excretion and systemic absorption (Jarvinen K. et al., "Ocular absorption following topical delivery", Adv. Drug Deliv. Rev. 16(1): 3-19 (1995) ); Conroy CW, "Sulfonamides do not reach the retina in therapeutic amounts after topical application to the cornea", Ocul. Pharmacol. Ther. 13(5): 465-472 (1997); and Maurice DM, "Drug delivery to the Posterior segment from drops", Surv. Ophthalmol. 47 (suppl. 1): S41-S52 (2001)). In addition, previous clinical trials to test the efficacy of squalamine by IV infusion for the treatment of AMD revealed potential problems with long-term use. Using pharmacokinetic analysis, IV formulations of IV formulations are considered to be suboptimal and are not commercially viable for various reasons. For example, a short plasma half-life of squalamine at a dose of 40 mg in a human subject results in insufficient concentration in the choroid after 4 to 6 days to block choroidal neovascularization (CNV). When the dosing interval is a monthly "maintenance" infusion, there may be only a maximum of one week of CNV inhibition, followed by active neovascularization for three weeks or longer. This regimen produced a good increase in visual acuity between the first four weeks and five weeks after the administration, followed by a decrease in the rate of improvement after the fifth week. Intravenous administration results in a local infusion site response (the administration is several orders of magnitude higher than the dose used in the topical formulation). In the "real world" situation, it is unrealistic to expect elderly patients with wet AMD to be able to visit the clinic weekly for extended time infusion. Most retinal ophthalmology practices are also not provided for such intravenous infusions. In contrast to the above indicated disadvantages associated with intravenous administration, the present invention is the discovery of a safe and non-irritating ocular formulation for topical administration that is capable of selectively delivering a therapeutic agent to the posterior portion of the eye. For the treatment of a condition.

此申請案在技術上與美國公開專利申請案第20130281420號及美國專利第5,192,756號、第6,962,909號、第7,981,876號及第8,716,270號相關,該等案件中之每一者均以全文引用方式併入。 根據所獲得之數據,本發明之局部調配物似乎靶向眼睛之後部。局部調配物為有利地靶向眼睛之後部,其應具有能夠以充足濃度到達眼睛之後鞏膜之性質。理想地,調配物在角膜上之滯留時間應增強而不會在擴散至眼睛之後部(例如自前鞏膜至後鞏膜)之前被眼淚沖掉。由於藥物分子可因(例如)使眼睛之晶狀體模糊而不利地影響該晶狀體,故該藥物分子不應自眼睛之前部進入眼球中並且進入眼球內之水狀液及玻璃體液至任一顯著程度。本發明調配物具有有效遞送藥物分子(例如二乳酸角鯊胺)所需要之期望且獨特之特徵,將該藥物分子施加至眼睛前部至需要治療濃度之藥物分子之眼睛後部用於治療靶向病症。本發明者出乎意料地發現來自存於本發明眼用調配物中之每一個別賦形劑之貢獻之總和與角鯊胺分子本身之固有理化性質一致,例如該分子之兩性離子特徵,在治療量下在眼睛中達成高度合意之選擇性生物利用度/生物分佈/耐受性性質。因此,儘管常規技術可單獨闡述本發明眼用調配物之賦形劑中之一或多者係為人熟知的,但先前未評價或預測本文所闡述眼用調配物之發明者觀察到之該等特定賦形劑之總成之獨特性質。 在投與至眼睛之表面上後,組合物進入結膜及前鞏膜並進入角膜層中。在存在時,黏膜黏著劑似乎增加在角膜中之滯留時間,使得藥物可隨時間緩慢擴散至後鞏膜,從而在後鞏膜中遞送持續濃度之角鯊胺或其醫藥上可接受之鹽。黏膜黏著劑因阻止(例如)由流淚及眼淚翻轉自鼻淚管排出引起之藥物損失實現了此目標。黏膜黏著劑亦通常具有可引起合意之舒緩或潤滑效應之黏度增強性質。視情況添加至調配物中之滲透增強劑可增強調配物滲透至角膜上皮層中,從而進一步增強角鯊胺或其醫藥上可接受之鹽在眼睛中之滯留時間。穩定劑可充當抗氧化劑或以其他方式阻止角鯊胺調配物之化學降解。緩衝劑將調配物緩衝至與眼部投與相容之舒適的近中性pH。調配物中之滲性改良劑產生眼用調配物之適當滲透壓。 所得調配物係穩定的,且其在滅菌後可包裝、儲存及直接使用。在例示性實施例中,調配物呈滴劑形式,按照該方式通常用於施加滴眼劑。正常擠壓型液體滴劑施加裝置完全適合用於施加本發明之眼用調配物。在例示性實施例中,調配物藉由將調配物逐滴添加至使用者之受影響眼睛中來便利地投與。 含有防腐劑之本發明調配物尤其有利地在多劑量容器中使用。如本文所使用之多劑量容器係指容許兩次或更多次單獨施用存於容器內之眼用調配物之容器。該等容器係可再密封的,亦即可去除容器蓋用於第一次施用,且然後可將蓋再置於容器上,藉此再次提供實質上液體不可滲透性密封。在各個例示性實施例中,抗微生物防腐劑係以足以使微生物濃度降低約12小時至約1個月(例如約12小時至約3週、例如約12小時至約2週、例如約12小時至約1週、例如約12小時至約3天、例如約12小時至約48小時、例如約12小時至約24小時)之時段之量存在。 在例示性實施例中,彼等不含防腐劑之調配物係包裝在單位劑量容器中,亦即其中給定容器僅提供單一劑量。一旦消費者首次開封容器時,該等不含防腐劑之組合物會經受失控之微生物生長。因此,要指導消費者處理第一次劑量後的容器。對於不含防腐劑之調配物而言,通常使用適當單位劑量系統(例如吹瓶-填充-密封單位劑量不含防腐劑之包裝系統)。 可在習用的眼科上相容之媒劑(例如,軟膏、乳霜、懸浮液、洗劑、粉末、溶液、糊劑、凝膠、噴霧劑、氣溶膠或油)中調配用於局部眼科投與本發明二乳酸角鯊胺之醫藥組合物。 如本文所使用之術語「眼科病況」或「眼科病症」包括(但不限於)濕型年齡相關性黃斑變性(濕型AMD)、乾型年齡相關性黃斑變性(乾型AMD)、糖尿病視網膜病變、增殖性糖尿病視網膜病變、缺血性視網膜病變(其包括視網膜動脈阻塞及頸動脈阻塞)、囊樣黃斑水腫、糖尿病黃斑水腫、虹膜紅變、早產兒視網膜病變、視網膜血管阻塞性疾病(其包括中央及分支視網膜靜脈阻塞)、炎性/傳染性視網膜新生血管形成/水腫(其包括後眼色素層炎、肉狀瘤、弓蟲症、組織胞漿菌病、伏格特-小柳-原田三氏病、慢性後眼色素層炎、點狀及多病灶內部脈絡膜病變)、視網膜母細胞瘤、眼黑色素瘤、眼腫瘤、視網膜脫落、近視性新生血管形成、血管狀痕、伊爾斯病、脈絡膜破裂及其任一組合。 如本文所使用之術語「黃斑變性」意欲涵蓋黃斑變性之所有形式且包括尤其在老年人中發生之通常影響一隻或兩隻眼睛之中心視覺逐漸損失。黃斑變性之緩慢進展形式通常稱作乾型形式,其特徵尤其在於黃斑中累積黃色沈積物及黃斑之薄化。黃斑變性之快速進展形式通常稱作濕型形式,其特徵在於因出血產生之結瘢及在黃斑下方形成之新血管之流體滲漏。黃斑變性可以濕型形式或乾型形式存在。 如本文所使用之片語「醫藥上可接受之鹽」係指可安全用於哺乳動物中之化學化合物之任一鹽。醫藥上可接受之鹽包括存於化學化合物中之酸基團及/或鹼基團之鹽。例示性醫藥上可接受之酸加成鹽包括(但不限於)鹽酸鹽、氫溴酸鹽、氫碘酸鹽、硝酸鹽、硫酸鹽、硫酸氫鹽、磷酸鹽、乙酸鹽、乳酸鹽、柳酸鹽、檸檬酸鹽、酒石酸鹽、抗壞血酸鹽、琥珀酸鹽、馬來酸鹽、富馬酸鹽、葡萄糖酸鹽、甲酸鹽、苯甲酸鹽、甲磺酸鹽、乙磺酸鹽、苯磺酸鹽及對甲苯磺酸鹽。醫藥上可接受之鹽化合物亦包括式-NRR'R''+

Based on the data obtained, the topical formulations of the invention appear to be targeted to the posterior portion of the eye. The topical formulation is advantageously targeted to the posterior portion of the eye, which should have the property of being able to reach the sclera after the eye in sufficient concentration. Ideally, the residence time of the formulation on the cornea should be enhanced without being washed away by tears before spreading to the back of the eye (eg, from the anterior sclera to the posterior sclera). Since the drug molecule can adversely affect the lens due to, for example, blurring the lens of the eye, the drug molecule should not enter the eyeball from the front of the eye and enter the aqueous humor and vitreous humor in the eyeball to any significant extent. The formulation of the present invention has the desirable and unique characteristics required for the effective delivery of a drug molecule (e.g., diacetamide), which is applied to the anterior portion of the eye to the back of the eye of the drug molecule in need of therapeutic concentration for therapeutic targeting. Illness. The inventors have unexpectedly discovered that the sum of the contributions from each of the individual excipients present in the ophthalmic formulations of the present invention is consistent with the inherent physicochemical properties of the squalamine molecule itself, such as the zwitterionic character of the molecule, A highly desirable selective bioavailability/biodistribution/tolerance property is achieved in the eye at therapeutic doses. Thus, while one or more of the excipients of the ophthalmic formulations of the present invention are individually well-known by conventional techniques, it has been previously observed by the inventors of the ophthalmic formulations not described herein. The unique nature of the assembly of a particular excipient. Upon administration to the surface of the eye, the composition enters the conjunctiva and anterior sclera and enters the corneal layer. When present, the mucoadhesive appears to increase the residence time in the cornea so that the drug can slowly diffuse over time to the posterior sclera, thereby delivering a sustained concentration of squalamine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in the posterior sclera. Mucosal adhesives achieve this goal by preventing drug loss caused, for example, by tearing and tearing over the nasolacrimal duct. Mucoadhesives also typically have viscosity-enhancing properties that cause a desirable soothing or lubricating effect. The penetration enhancer added to the formulation as appropriate enhances penetration of the formulation into the corneal epithelial layer, thereby further enhancing the residence time of squalamine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in the eye. The stabilizer acts as an antioxidant or otherwise prevents chemical degradation of the squalamine formulation. The buffer buffers the formulation to a comfortable near neutral pH compatible with ocular administration. The osmotic modifier in the formulation produces an appropriate osmotic pressure for the ophthalmic formulation. The resulting formulation is stable and can be packaged, stored and used directly after sterilization. In an exemplary embodiment, the formulation is in the form of a drop, which is typically used to apply an eye drop in this manner. The normally extruded liquid drop application device is fully suitable for applying the ophthalmic formulation of the present invention. In an exemplary embodiment, the formulation is conveniently administered by dropwise adding the formulation to the affected eye of the user. Formulations of the invention containing a preservative are especially advantageously used in multi-dose containers. A multi-dose container as used herein refers to a container that allows two or more separate administrations of an ophthalmic formulation contained in a container. The containers are resealable, i.e., the container lid can be removed for the first application, and the lid can then be placed over the container, again providing a substantially liquid impermeable seal. In various exemplary embodiments, the antimicrobial preservative is sufficient to reduce the microbial concentration for from about 12 hours to about 1 month (eg, from about 12 hours to about 3 weeks, such as from about 12 hours to about 2 weeks, such as about 12 hours). An amount is present for a period of from about 1 week, such as from about 12 hours to about 3 days, such as from about 12 hours to about 48 hours, such as from about 12 hours to about 24 hours. In an exemplary embodiment, the preservative-free formulation is packaged in a unit dose container, i.e., wherein a given container provides only a single dose. Once the consumer first unpacks the container, the preservative-free composition will undergo uncontrolled microbial growth. Therefore, the consumer is to be instructed to handle the container after the first dose. For preservative-free formulations, an appropriate unit dose system (eg, a blow-fill-seal unit dose of a preservative-free packaging system) is typically used. Formulated for use in topical ophthalmic administration in conventional ophthalmologically compatible vehicles (eg, ointments, creams, suspensions, lotions, powders, solutions, pastes, gels, sprays, aerosols or oils) And a pharmaceutical composition of the diacetamide of the present invention. The term "ophthalmic condition" or "ophthalmic condition" as used herein includes, but is not limited to, wet age-related macular degeneration (wet AMD), dry age-related macular degeneration (dry AMD), diabetic retinopathy. Proliferative diabetic retinopathy, ischemic retinopathy (including retinal artery occlusion and carotid occlusion), cystoid macular edema, diabetic macular edema, iris reddening, retinopathy of prematurity, retinal vascular occlusive disease (including Central and branch retinal vein occlusion), inflammatory/infectious retinal neovascularization/edema (including posterior uveitis, sarcoidosis, toxoplasmosis, histoplasmosis, Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada Disease, chronic posterior uveitis, punctate and multifocal internal choroidal lesions, retinoblastoma, ocular melanoma, ocular tumor, retinal detachment, myopic neovascularization, vascular lesions, Iles disease, Choroidal rupture and any combination thereof. The term "macular degeneration" as used herein is intended to encompass all forms of macular degeneration and includes gradual loss of central vision that typically affects one or both eyes, particularly in the elderly. The slow progression of macular degeneration is commonly referred to as the dry form and is characterized, inter alia, by the accumulation of yellow deposits in the macula and thinning of the macula. The rapidly progressing form of macular degeneration is commonly referred to as the wet form and is characterized by scarring of the scar caused by bleeding and fluid leakage of new blood vessels formed under the macula. Macular degeneration can exist in either wet or dry form. The phrase "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" as used herein refers to any salt of a chemical compound that can be safely used in mammals. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts include the acid groups and/or salts of base groups present in the chemical compound. Exemplary pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts include, but are not limited to, hydrochloride, hydrobromide, hydroiodide, nitrate, sulfate, hydrogen sulfate, phosphate, acetate, lactate, Salicylate, citrate, tartrate, ascorbate, succinate, maleate, fumarate, gluconate, formate, benzoate, methanesulfonate, ethanesulfonate , besylate and p-toluenesulfonate. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts also include compounds of formula -NRR'R '' + Z - the quaternary ammonium salts, wherein R, R 'and each R''independently of the system (e.g.) hydrogen, alkyl, or Alkylaryl, and Z is a relative ion, including but not limited to chloride, bromide, iodide, alkoxide, p-toluenesulfonate, methanesulfonate, sulfonate, phosphate or carboxylate. As defined herein, a "therapeutically effective amount" is an amount of an active agent (eg, squalamine) that completely or partially inhibits progression of a condition or at least partially alleviates one or more symptoms of the condition. The therapeutically effective amount is also an amount effective in preventing. The therapeutically effective amount will depend on the weight and sex of the patient, the condition to be treated, the severity of the condition, and the search for results. For a given patient, a therapeutically effective amount can be determined by methods known in the art. The concentration of di- lysamine is typically from about 0.01% to about 5.0% by weight, such as from about 0.01% to about 4.0% by weight, such as from about 0.02% to about 3.0% by weight, such as from about 0.03% to about 2.0% by weight. %, for example from about 0.05% by weight to about 1.0% by weight. In various exemplary embodiments, the dilacsamine salt is used at a concentration of from about 0.1 to about 5 w/v%, such as from about 0.1 w/v% to about 4.5 w/v%, such as about 0.1 w/v. % to about 4.0 w/v%, such as from about 0.1 w/v% to about 3.5 w/v%, such as from about 0.1 w/v% to about 3.0 w/v%, such as from about 0.1 w/v% to about 2.5 w. /v%, for example from about 0.1 w/v% to about 2.0 w/v%, such as from about 0.1 w/v% to about 1.5 w/v%, such as from about 0.1 w/v% to about 1.0 w/v%, for example From about 0.1 w/v% to about 0.8 w/v%, such as from about 0.1 w/v% to about 0.7 w/v%, such as from about 0.1 w/v% to about 0.6 w/v%, such as about 0.1 w/v. % to about 0.5 w/v%, such as from about 0.1 w/v% to about 0.4 w/v%, such as from about 0.1 w/v% to about 0.3 w/v%, such as from about 0.1 w/v% to about 0.2 w. /v%. Optionally, the formulation of the present invention contains a permeability improving agent. In an exemplary embodiment, the osmotic modifier is non-ionic. The osmoticity improver can be selected from, but not limited to, mannitol, sorbitol, dextrose, sucrose, urea, glycerol, polyethylene glycol, and any mixture thereof. In an exemplary embodiment, the osmotic modifier is sufficient to produce from about 250 milliosmoles per kilogram (mOsmol/kg) to about 350 milliosmoles per kilogram (mOsmol/kg) (eg, from about 265 mOsmol/kg to about 325).

Example 7 - Preclinical Testing of Formulation 6 - Biodistribution Study QD (every 24 hours) or BID (every 12 hours) bilateral dosing of Dutch Dutch rabbits (n=24) formulation 6 drops Eye drops (40 μL) for 1 day, 7 days, and 14 days (n=4/group/dose). Animals were euthanized and ocular tissue was collected in the QD or BID group at 24 (±2) or 12 (±1) hours after the last administration, respectively. The squalamine concentrations in the posterior sclera/choroid, aqueous and vitreous humor and plasma were analyzed using a validated LC-MS/MS method with a lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) of 10 ng/g tissue. Values below LLOQ are reported as quantifiable lower limits or BQL. The eye toxicity and irritation of the formulation were also evaluated by clinical observation and slit lamp ophthalmoscopy. Results Formulations administered with QD or BID 6 eye drops were well tolerated and had no adverse clinical effects. At the time of QD administration, the concentrations of squalamine in the posterior sclera/choroid in the 1 day, 7 days, and 14 day groups were 9.5 ng/g, 21.9 ng/g, and 39.8 ng/g, respectively ( Fig. 1 , lower curve). At the time of BID administration, the concentrations of squalamine in the posterior sclera/choroid in the 1 day, 7 days, and 14 day groups were 21.7 ng/g, 62.6 ng/g, and 68 ng/g, respectively ( Fig. 1 , upper curve). The value represents the content of a complete dosing interval (QD 24 (+2) hours, BID 12 (+1) hours) after the last administration. The QD and BID values demonstrate that the content of squalamine in the posterior sclera/choroid is much higher than the threshold for inhibition of tissue angiogenesis (approximately 11 ng/g). In contrast, squalamine concentrations were <LLOQ (10 ng/mL) in all animals and <LLOQ in plasma in 23/24 animals in aqueous and vitreous humor (Table 1). Table 1 BQL = lower limit of quantitation (10 ng/g in tissue; 10 ng/mL in plasma) Formulation 6 eye drops proved harmless and did not produce discernable changes in ophthalmic slit lamp eye examination. Example 8 - Clinical Test of Formulation 5 The clinical studies set forth below use the following examples of Formulation 5: 0.2 w/v% dibasic squalamine; 0.27 w/v% sodium phosphate heptahydrate and 0.06 w/v % sodium dihydrogen phosphate monohydrate; 1.2 w/v% povidone K-30; 0.01 w/v% disodium edetate; 0.80 w/v% sodium chloride; 0.005 w/v% benzalkonium chloride 1.0 w/v% 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin; and sufficient purified water, pH 6.7 to 7.1. The studies set forth below represent a 9-month Phase II clinical trial evaluation of Formulation 5 for the safety and efficacy of wet AMD. Two treatment arms were administered twice daily with 5 drops of formulation plus Lucentis® ("Condition 5" arm or group, labeled "Form-5" in the figure). Placebo drops twice daily. Eye drops plus Lucentis® ("Lucentis® Monotherapy" arm or group, labeled "Placebo" in the figure). All patients in the study received an initial Lucentis® injection. 142 patients were randomized to the study, and 90% of the patients completed the 9-month treatment regimen. Formulation 5 was generally well tolerated and there were only two treatment related discontinuations in this study. The visual acuity results of patients who completed the 9-month treatment period (in the modified intention-to-treat or mITT population) were analyzed. Visual acuity at 9th month in the mITT population (preparation 5, n=37; Lucentis® monotherapy, n=28) with lesions containing classical choroidal neovascularization (CNV) (with classic lesions) The average increase was +11 letters for the OHR-102 combination arm and +5 letters for Lucentis® monotherapy, with a clinically meaningful benefit of 6 letters ( Figure 2A ). In addition, 44% of patients receiving Formulation 5 combination therapy achieved a visual increase of ≥3 lines at 9 months compared to 28% in the Lucentis® monotherapy group ( Fig. 2B ). This positive effect on visual acuity in classic lesions has been observed both early in the course of treatment and continues to increase until the end of the study. The classical CNV population is representative of approximately 2/3 of the total wet AMD patient population. The mITT data in the classic lesions also showed a more significant separation between Formulation 5 and the Lucentis® monotherapy group for those patients who achieved a visual increase of ≥4 and ≥5 lines. As compared to 7% with ≥4 lines of increase and ≥5 lines of 7% for those receiving Lucentis® monotherapy, 22% achieved ≥4 at 9 months in patients receiving Formulation 5 The line increases and 17% achieves an increase of ≥5 lines ( Fig. 2C ). Data were analyzed in patients with intentional lesions in the intention to treat (ITT-LOCF) population (Formulation 5, n=38; Lucentis® monotherapy, n=32). In this group, the average increase in visual acuity was +10.5 letters for the combination arm of Formulation 5 and +5.4 letters for Lucentis® monotherapy, with a clinically meaningful benefit of +5.1 letters ( Figure 3A ). In addition, 31% of patients receiving Formulation 5 achieved an increase of ≥3 lines at 9 months compared to 25% in the Lucentis® monotherapy group ( Fig. 3B ).
