Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method of recovering immunoglobulin suitable for intravenous administration, by fractionated precipitation of blood plasma, serum or a fraction thereof with a polycondensed di or polyol.
  • Immunoglobulins comprising gammaglobulins have therapeutic merit as they are suitable for preparing immunizing preparations.
  • Immunoglobulin is found in blood plasma of animal origin, from which it may be recovered by various precipitation and purification processes. Hence, gammaglobulin can be recovered as concentrated solutions by a method developed by Cohn et al, cf. J. Clin. Invest. Chem. Soc., 68, 479-75 (1946). According to Cohn, it is possible to obtain a fraction II being a 16.5% concentrate and which may be injected intramuscularly.
  • Cohn's method comprises precipitation with alcohol which has a water-expelling effect and may lead to irreversible denaturation, whereby the globulin is rendered anti-complementary. It has been attempted to avoid this by means of special separation processes and/or by chemical modification of the gammaglobulin.
  • the prior art teaches an improved fractionating process in which the gammaglobulin is precipitated from blood plasma by means of polyethylene glycol (PEG) as precipitant, cf. U.S. Pat. No. 3,415,804. This eliminates the undesired denaturation, but the purity of the precipated product is unsatisfactory.
  • PEG polyethylene glycol
  • this precipitation process may be improved by replacing polyethylene glycol by a block copolymer of ethylene oxide and polyoxypropylene polymer of a further specified nature and observing some specific precipitation conditions.
  • the present invention is based on the observation that the fractionated precipitation of immunoglobulins, also known as gammaglobulins, by means of polyethylene glycol or other polycondensed di or polyol may be rendered appreciably more specific if the precipitation is carried out in the presence of a mono or polyalkanoic acid having from .[.4 to 12.]. .Iadd.6 to 9 .Iaddend.carbon atoms, whereby i.a. fibrinogen and lipoproteins are removed.
  • the claimed method may be used in connection with any polycondensed di or polyglycol such as polyethylene glycol of varying molecular weights, e.g. 2000 to 12000, preferably 4000 to 6000, or polypropylene glycol. Also copolymers of ethylene oxide with propylene oxide or polyethers are suitable. .[.Suitable as mono or polyalkanoic acid is any alkanoic acid having from 4 to 12 carbon atoms..]. Preferred according to the invention is an alkanoic acid having from 6 to 9 carbon atoms, preferably caprylic acid. Examples of other suitable alkanoic acids are caproic acid and nonanic acid. Also branched alkanoic acids may be used.
  • any polycondensed di or polyglycol such as polyethylene glycol of varying molecular weights, e.g. 2000 to 12000, preferably 4000 to 6000, or polypropylene glycol.
  • copolymers of ethylene oxide with propylene oxide or polyethers are suitable.
  • alkanoic acids When using higher alkanoic acids, .[.such as having from 9 to 12 carbon atoms,.]. it may be advantageous to incorporate additionally one or more carboxyl groups with a view to improving water-solubility. The same effect is achieved by using alkanoic acids having substituents containing, for example, one or more hydroxyl groups or amino groups.
  • the immunoglobulin-containing solution is advantageously mixed with from 1 to 8 percent by weight of polyethylene glycol or other polycondensed diol or polyol together with from 0.1 to 5 percent by weight of caprylic acid or other alkanoic acid having from .[.4 to 12.]. .Iadd.6 to 9 .Iaddend.carbon atoms, the precipitation with alkanoic acid according to the invention being advantageously effected at a pH of from 3 to 7, preferably from 4.5 to 5.5.
  • the solution is filtered until clear using a Seitz EK-filter.
  • the solution formed is admixed with 5 g of caprylic acid and 30 g of PEG 3000 per liter solution, and adjusted to a pH of 4.9. After leaving to stand for 2 hours at 20° C. the mixture is centrifugated, and the liquid phase is filtered to obtain a clear solution.
  • the yield of product is 60 percent.
  • the degree of purity as determined by DISC PAGE discloses substantially only two bands corresponding to IgG and IgM, respectively. The analysis is performed by application of 500 ⁇ g of product.
  • the purified product may, if desired, be converted to an intravenously injectable preparation by dissolution in 0.9 percent sodium chloride solution until a protein concentration of about 5 percent.
  • the preparation is distinguished by an extremely low anticomplementary activity, for which reason it is particularly suitable for intravenous administration.
  • Example 2 The procedure according to Example 1 is repeated, except that the human blood plasma is replaced by swine plasma.
  • Example 1 The procedure according to Example 1 is repeated, except that human blood plasma is replaced by blood serum.
  • 100 l of plasma or serum are mixed with 100 l of 600 g/l PEG 3000 solution.
  • the pH is adjusted to 6.5.
  • the precipitate is separated by centrifugation and redissolved in 100 l of distilled water admixed with 0.015 M of NaCl.
  • the pH is adjusted to 5.0.
  • the precipitate is separated by centrifugation.
  • the centrifugate is admixed with additional 40 g of PEG 3000 per liter.
  • the pH is adjusted to 7.5.
  • the precipitate is separated by centrifugation and redissolved in distilled water with 0.002 M of NaCl.
  • the solution is filtered to clarity (e.g. SEITZ ® EK-Filter).
  • the protein concentration should be 50-100 g/l.
  • 20 g of DEAE-Sephadex-A25 ® are added per 100 g of protein.
  • the DEAE-Sephadex is separated by filtration.
  • the DEAE-Sephadex treatment is repeated. After sterile filtration there is obtained an immunoglobulin G preparation free from anticomplementariness and suitable for intravenous administration.
