Definitions
- the present invention relates to a process for the preparation of a virus safe immunoglobulin composition, and antibody preparations and pharmaceutical compositions which can be prepared using the process.
- Immunoglobulin compositions prepared from human plasma and suitable for intravenous administration are known in the art and for several decades have played an important role in the treatment of a wide range of diseases. Immunoglobulins are used, for example, for the treatment of infections in humans and can be assigned to various classes with various biochemical and physiological properties. Immunoglobulin G participates in defending against viral antigens, whereas IgM is predominantly active in antibacterial and antitoxin immune responses.
- the immunoglobulin solutions comprise IgG, IgA and IgM in various percentages, with different preparations having different treatment applications, e.g. preparations with a higher percentage of IgM are used in the prophylaxis or treatment of bacterial infections.
- IgM antibodies In contrast to IgG preparations IgM antibodies easily aggregate in solution. IgM preparations are difficult to stabilize especially if they are enriched compared to plasma concentrations and stored in liquid solution.
- the immunoglobulin solutions are usually prepared from fractions of blood plasma or serum, e.g. Cohn fractions. These fractions are then subjected to a number of purification steps to remove contaminants including viruses, denatured proteins, proteases and lipids. Human plasma for fractionation is collected from thousands of donors and may contain pathogen viruses despite thorough testing of the source plasma. Therefore process steps to inactivate or remove viruses are essential in order to achieve safe products for use in medicine.
- Several techniques for virus inactivation/removal are known in the art, e.g. chemical treatments, irradiation with UVC light or nanometer filtration, which are performed in order to ensure overall virus safety.
- steps can have a negative impact on the activity of the immunoglobulins; for example extended irradiation times with UVC can reduce the yield of native and active IgM obtained in the final immunoglobulin solution.
- the virus removal or inactivation capacity of the process steps is validated using laboratory scale models of the production process and for each step a removal or inactivation factor is determined.
- An increase of the inactivation / removal factor adds additional viral safety to the pharmaceutical product.
- Today guidelines from regulatory authorities require at least two effective steps for enveloped and non-enveloped viruses in the manufacture of plasma-derived pharmaceuticals.
- ACA anticomplementary activity
- EP0352500 describes the preparation of an IgM concentrate for intravenous application with a reduced anti-complementary activity by using anionic exchange chromatography, ⁇ -Propiolactone, UVC light irradiation and an incubation step at increased temperature (40 °C to 60 °C).
- ⁇ -propiolactone is a well known chemical used in sterilization steps in order to inactivate viruses which are potentially present.
- ⁇ -propiolactone is a very reactive substance which causes the chemical modification of proteins there is also substantial loss of the anti-viral and anti-bacterial activities of the immunoglobulins.
- the preparation produced by this method was stable in liquid solution for a limited time due to the chemical modification.
- the IgM concentration was above 50 % from the total immunoglobulin content.
- IgM preparations have been described as being difficult to prepare for intravenous application. IgM by nature is a vigorous activator of complement after the binding of antigens. Therefore unspecific anticomplementary activity of denatured IgM molecules is far more dangerous to patients than denatured IgG molecules.
- the preparation according to EP0413187 had a low anticomplementary activity, between 0,6 and 0,8 CH50/mg protein, but had to be stabilized and virus inactivated by ⁇ -propiolactone. Low anticomplementary activity is considered to be ⁇ 1 CH50/mg protein according to EP monograph for immunoglobulins.
- EP0413188B 1 (Biotest) describes the preparation of an IgM-enriched preparation for intravenous administration by using an anion exchange chromatography in order to reduce the anticomplementary activity. Additionally a heat treatment at pH 4 - 4.5 at 40 to 60°C, preferably between 50 and 54°C, was described to reduce the anticomplementary activity. This preparation had to be lyophilized to ensure stability of the preparation for several months. Long term stability as a liquid solution could not be shown.
- Another method describes the use of mild-heat treatment of IgM preparations at 40 to 62°C, preferably 45 to 55°C, at pH 4.0 to 5.0 (EP 0450412, Miles) to reduce the non-specific complement activation.
- octanoic acid is added to a Cohn fraction III suspension in order to remove prekallikrein activator and lipoproteins by centrifugation. Nevertheless this treatment led to partial loss of antigenic determinants of IgM. This may increase the risk of generating neo- antigens leading to a increased immunogenicity in humans or the loss of activity.
- EP 0345543 (Bayer, Miles) a highly concentrated IgM preparation with at least 33% IgM for therapeutic use is disclosed, the preparation being substantially free of isoagglutinin titres.
- an octanoic acid precipitation is carried out by adding the octanoic acid and the isoagglutinins are removed by Synsorb affinity chromatography. The final preparation had to be freeze dried.
- the preparation of a IgM containing preparation with low anticomplementary activity is possible if the immunoglobulins are chemically or enzymatically modified and/or further purified by chromatography and/or subjected to a mild heat treatment.
- Non enveloped viruses are effectively inactivated by chemicals like ⁇ -propiolactone which, however, also leads to a modified immunoglobulin with impaired functions.
- Another effective treatment is UVC-irradiation (EP1842561 , CAF-DCF).
- known solvent/detergent treatments, octanoic acid treatment and mild heat treatment have no substantial effect on non- enveloped viruses.
- the present invention provides a process for the preparation of an IgM immunoglobulin composition from a plasma fraction comprising immunoglobulins, the process comprising:
- the present applicants have surprisingly found that the use of a vibrating agitator during the step where the immunoglobulin solution is mixed with the carboxylic acid is extremely advantageous.
- This method step provides a more efficient removal of unwanted proteins (including proteases) and produces an intermediate product which is better suited to downstream processing steps utilised to produce an immunoglobulin medicament; the intermediate product allows these downstream processing steps to be more efficient.
- the IgM immunoglobulin containing composition obtained from step (c) can be combined with further treatment steps, such as treatment with mild acid conditions and treatment with UVC irradiation, to produce an IgM containing immunoglobulin product or antibody preparation which is suitable for intravenous administration and which has the following advantageous properties: (i) being chemically unmodified; (ii) being virus safe (iii) having low proteolytic activity (and therefore being stable during long term storage); (iv) having low anticomplementary activity; and (v) retaining a high level of native and active IgM.
- the level of virus safety achieved with the methods described herein has not previously been obtaininable.
- the use of the method of the present invention achieves an IgM containing immunoglobulin product or antibody preparation with combinations of these features which have not previously been obtainable.
- the method steps of the present invention lead to a higher inactivation and removal of virus particles, especially very resistant, non-enveloped viruses such as Parvo viruses, which are usually not very susceptible to octanoic acid treatment.
- virus particles especially very resistant, non-enveloped viruses such as Parvo viruses, which are usually not very susceptible to octanoic acid treatment.
- an improved removal of proteolytic activity is achieved in comparison to conventional stirring.
- octanoic acid concentration to completely remove proteolytic activity results in a massive loss of IgM.
- the results of the present invention are achieved through the use of mixing devices using a vibrating mode in combination with the octanoic acid treatment. This is particularly surprising since it is known that IgM is very susceptible to shear stress, which may lead to an undesired high anticomplementary activity. Accordingly, one would not consider using a vibrating mixer to prepare an IgM composition and would not expect such a favorable impact when using a vibrating mixing during processing of an IgM containing solution.
- step (c) such as clarification by filtration of the octanoic acid treated solution resulting from step (b), is enhanced when a vibrating mixing device is used. Separation is more easily achieved, reducing processing time and manufacturing costs, and step (c) leads to a limpid solution which creates advantages for downstream processing.
- the resulting IgM containing composition obtained from step (c) is preferably subjected to treatment with mild acid conditions (e.g. pH 4) and an UVC-irradiation step to further improve virus safety and stabilize the final product. Due to the enhanced clarification of the IgM containing immunoglobulin composition obtained from step (c) it is possible to lower the necessary irradiation time with UVC to achieve a virus inactivation of non enveloped viruses of more than 3 or 4 log 10 . This results in a higher yield of native and active IgM during UVC treatment.
- mild acid conditions e.g. pH 4
- a chemically and enzymatically unmodified IgM containing solution which has higher yields of native and active IgM, having low anticomplementary activity and low proteolytic activity and having high antibacterial and antiviral activity, with an outstanding virus safety concerning enveloped and non enveloped viruses; a key feature for pharmaceuticals which are for intravenous administration.
- a treated IgM containing solution has improved long term stability being very stable in liquid solution for more than 12 months at 2 - 8°C.
- the present invention provides an antibody preparation obtainable using the process of the present invention set out above and an antibody preparation comprising IgM and having a proteolytic activity of less than 8U/1.
- the antibody preparation is suitable for intravenous administration in humans and comprises IgG, IgA and IgM, wherein at least 5% of the total immunoglobulins are IgM.
- the present invention provides an antibody preparation of the present invention for use in medicine.
- the antibody preparation is for use in the treatment of immunological disorders and bacterial infections.
- a further aspect of the present invention provides a method of treatment comprising administering the antibody preparation of the present invention to a patient.
- FIGURE 1 provides an overview of an embodiment of the invention in which the steps that can be utilised to form an antibody preparation suitable for intravenous administration are shown.
- the octanoic acid treatment step employing a vibromixer device, the pH4 treatment and the UVC treatment are highlighted.
- the starting material is generated from a standard cold ethanol precipitation process of human plasma.
- the present invention provides a process for the preparation of an IgM containing immunoglobulin composition from a plasma fraction comprising immunoglobulins.
- Plasma fractions suitable for the preparation of pharmaceutical immunoglobulin compositions, and methods for their production are well known in the art.
- the plasma fraction is obtained from human plasma.
- the plasma fraction is preferably a precipitated plasma fraction and most preferably a precipitated plasma fraction obtained by the process of Cohn fractionation or its well known modifications (e.g. Kistler-Nitschmann).
- the fraction is fraction I/III or fraction III (also known as fraction B+I or fraction B) out of cold ethanol fractionation.
- Step (a) comprises providing a plasma fraction as a solution containing the immunoglobulins.
- the plasma fraction containing the immunoglobulins will be in solid or semi-solid form.
- This step may comprise mixing the plasma fraction with a suitable buffer.
- the buffer is of low molarity (i.e. less than 1M) and has a pH between 4.5 and 5.5 e.g. 0.1 M sodium acetate buffer pH 5.05 ⁇ 0.1.
- Mixing can be completed using a blade mixer or a vibrating agitator.
- step (b) the solution formed in step (a) is mixed using a vibrating agitator with a C 7 to C 9 carboxylic acid to precitipate contaminating proteins (e.g. proteases, viruses etc).
- the carboxylic acid may be branched and/or may include substituents which do not substantially alter the effect of step (b).
- the carboxylic acid is preferably octanoic acid.
- the acid is preferably added at a concentration of at least 0.075 kg/kg of plasma fraction, up to a concentration of 0.2 kg/kg. More preferably the acid is added at 0.8 to 0.15 kg/kg of plasma fraction, and most preferably between 0.09 kg/kg and 0.13 kg/kg. Acid of any convenient molarity may be used to provide the correct concentration.
- any type of commercially available vibrating agitator suitable for use in the chemical/pharmaceutical industry, may be used.
- suitable vibrating agitators are available from Graber + Pfenninger GmbH.
- the "Labormodell Typ 1" vibromixer can be used for lab scale experiments, and the "Industriemixer Typ 4" can be used for production scale preparations.
- the vibrating mixers can be used according to manufacturer's instructions, and in particular at settings which are described by the manufacturers as suitable for mixing solutions containing proteins.
- the vibrating mixers can usually be operated at less than 100 Hz with an amplitude less than 10 mm, e.g.
- step (b) the pH of the mixed solution is preferably between 4.5 to 5.5, and more preferably between pH 4.8 and pH 5.3.
- the step can be carried out in sodium acetate buffer, and, for example, with approximately 0.1 M sodium acetate buffer.
- the temperature at which step (b) is conducted is preferably between 10°C and 35°C, and more preferably 14 to 30 °C.
- the mixing time using the vibrating agitator is not particularly limited but is preferably at least 30 minutes and not more than 3 hours, and more preferably from 40 - 110 minutes. Incubation times of less than 30 minutes can reduce the level of virus inactivation.
- tri-calcium phosphate is mixed with the solution in step (b). Preferably this is added at 0.01 to 0.02 kg/kg plasma fraction (as it is in solid or semi-solid form).
- the tri-calcium phosphate can be added simultaneously, separately or sequentially to the carboxylic acid. In a preferred embodiment the tri-calcium phosphate is added at least 20 minutes after the carboxylic acid.
- step (c) the contaminating proteins precipitated in step (b) are separated off from the solution to yield the IgM containing immunoglobulin composition (i.e. an immunoglobulin containing solution).
- This step of separation is not particularly limited but can be performed by any suitable method known in the art. However, the separating step is preferably performed using filtration, and more preferably ultrafiltration, and the result of step (c) is therefore a filtered solution.
- step (c) is easier to perform.
- a transparently clear solution i.e. the IgM containing immunoglobulin composition. Filtration is therefore quicker and easier.
- the process of the present invention comprises the additional steps of treating the IgM containing immunoglobulin composition obtained from step (c) with mild acid conditions and, further, subjecting the acid treated composition to UVC irradiation.
- the IgM containing immunoglobulin composition obtained from step (c) is incubated at between pH 3.5 to pH 4.5, and preferably between pH3.8 and pH4,2, to form an incubated solution.
- the mild acid conditions can be created by adding a suitable acid to the IgM containing immunoglobulin composition, for example the pH can be adjusted by adding 0.2M HC1.

- the anti-complementary activity is expressed a used complement in respect to the used complement of a reference solution.
- the hemolytic unit of complement activity (CI1 ⁇ 2) is the amount of complement leading to hemolysis of 2.5 x 10 s optimally prepared erythrocytes of a total amount of 5 x 10 s erythrocytes in optimal buffer conditions.
- erythrocytes 8ml stabilized erythrocytes from sheep, washed three times with gelatine-barbital-buffer, finally 1 ml erythrocyte sediment are suspended in 24 ml gelatine-barbital- buffer) are prepared by mixing 20 ml erythrocytes suspension with 20 ml hemolysine (adjusted to 2 MHE/ml - minimal hemolytic unit) and incubation for 15 min at 37°C.
- the solution is treated by addition of a 19.8 kg octanoic acid (0.1 10 kg per kg paste I/III used) at room temperature and the protein solution is further mixed for 80 minutes, using a vibrating mixer (Vibromixer ® , Size 4, Graber+Pfenniger GmbH, Vibromixer adjusted to level 2 - 3).
- the octanoic acid is added slowly over 30 min.
- the protein solution is treated at pH 4.0 ⁇ 0.1 after dilution 1+1 with water for injection. pH adjustment is carried out by using 1 M HC1 and the protein solution is incubated for 9 h at 37 °C ⁇ 2°C. After the pH 4 incubation the protein solution is adjusted to pH 5.8, using 1 M NaOH.

- Example 3 Virus Reduction Through Use of Vibromixer - Determination of virus removal factors for the octanoic acid treatment with and without use of a vibromixer.
- Virus titres from samples taken prior to addition of octanoic acid and after filtration were determined on appropriate indicator cells for SV40, Reo and PPV (CV-1 , CCL.7.1 and PK13). Finally, the removal factor was calculated in compliance with the current guidelines for virus validation studies.
- non-enveloped viruses such as SV40 and Reo were effectively removed in the order of more than 4 logio and more than 5 logio, respectively.
- PPV was removed by more than 3 logio.
- Table 1 Comparison of the virus reduction factors (logio) for the octanoic acid treatment with and without the use of a vibromixer.
- the optimal range for the dosage of UVC radiation has been evaluated. There is a balance between the minimal necessary dosage to achieve at least 4 logio inactivation for non enveloped viruses and the maximum tolerable dosage to avoid denaturation of the IgM molecules leading to an impaired Fab function to bind antigens and impaired Fc function influencing complement activation. In the range of 200 to 400 J/m 2 one could observe only a slight increase of immunoglobulin aggregates and no significant impact on fragment content.
- the optical density (OD) of the original protein solution is used to calculate the flow rate in the UVivatec lab system with the vendor provided Excel-Sheet from BTS (customer Master Calculation Sheet UVivatec Lab II Version 3.0).
- the flow rate is calculated by taking into account the lamp performance, the set point of the UV signal lamp sensor and the desired UVC irradiation dose.
- IgM containing solution with a protein content of about 55 g/1 (Batch 86GB005BE07) was pumped at a flow rate of 5.8 1/h through the UVivatec system in order to achieve a dose of 200 J/m 2 for a single flow-through.
- a dose of 300 J/m 2 was achieved by pumping the protein solution at a flow rate of 3.9 L/m 2 through the system.
- 400 J/m 2 were achieved by pumping the protein solution at a flow rate of 2.9 L/m 2 through the system.
- the preferred range for the dosage was set between 200 and 300 J/m 2 because 200 J/m 2 are well enough to inactivate non enveloped viruses and at 300 J/m 2 no significant impact could be seen on aggregate formation and antibody titres.
- the preferred dosage is 225 J/m2
- Diluted IgM containing solution with a protein content of 8 to 12 g/1 (Batch 86BB059BE07) was pumped at a flow rate of 5.8 1/h through the UVivatech system in order to achieve a doses between 200 and 300 J/m 2 for a single flow-through.
- UVC UVC: UVC:
- the distribution between the immunoglobulin classes remains unaffected by the UV irradiation within this dosage range procedure.
- the molecular weight distribution pattern analyzed by HPSEC is also not changed.
- the level of purity analyzed by CZE remains unchanged.
- Proteolytic activity (PA), prekallikrein activator (PKA) and anti-complementary activity (ACA) are unchanged.
- the anti bacterial activity measured by an Elisa method are not significantly altered for all immunoglobulin classes.
- Example 5 Overall Virus Reduction Through Use of Vibromixer/pH4 treatment and UVC treatment - Determination of virus removal factors
- BVDV Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus
- PRV Pseudorabies Virus
- HAV Human Immunodeficiency virus
- EAV Equine Arteritis Virus
- SEAV Murine Encephalomyelitis Virus
- MEV Murine Encephalomyelitis Virus
- Reo Reo
- PPV Porcine Parvovirus
- the optional nano filtration with filters with a nominal pore size of about 50 nm adds additional safety by increasing the total reduction up to more than 17 loglO depending on the size of the virus. E.g >17.5 logio are then reached for HIV-1 whereas PPV was not further removed by nano filtration.
- the purification procedure according to the invention leads to an outstanding virus safe IgM preparation with up to now for such an IgM containing preparation unreached virus inactivation / reduction rates of more than 8 logio. This is especially important for the non enveloped viruses like MEV, Reo and PPV which are generally more resistant against virus inactivation and removal procedures due to their small size and the lack of a lipid envelope.
- Example 6 Determination of residual proteolytic activity for the octanoic acid treatment with and without use of a vibromixer.
- the octanoic acid treatment was performed like in example 1 and in a parallel experiment without a vibromixer but with vigorous standard stirring with a blade stirrer.
- the proteolytic activity in samples after octanoic acid / tricalcium phosphate treatment and ultra-/diafiltration were determined using the chromogenic substrate S-2288 (Chromogenix), following the manufacturers instructions. are diluted into buffer ( 100 mM Tris/HCl pH 8.4, 106 mM NaCl) to meet the linear range of the assay, e.g. 200 ⁇ buffer are mixed with 200 ⁇ sample (mixing and temperature adjustment to 37 °C) and 200 ⁇ chromogenic substrate solution.
- the absorption kinetics are measured at 405 nm (1-3 min) at 37 °C, using a spectrophotometer.
- Example 7 Anti-bacterial titres in an IgM preparation according to the invention
- the anti-bacterial activities were analyzed in three batches of this well established drug and compared to a preparation according to the invention.
- the determination of antibodies of the IgA or IgM class in the IgM preparation versus antibacterial or antifungal antigens was carried out by ELISA. Microtitre plates were coated with a corresponding antigen and incubated with a standard or the IgM preparation. Antibodies bound to the antigen were detected with an anti- human-IgA or anti-human-IgM conjugate. The detection was carried out by using an enzyme substrate. The resulting colour change is corresponding to the amount of antibodies present in IgM preparation.
- the IgM and IgA mediated activities in the new preparation were typically at least 1.5 times as high as in Pentaglobin which can be explained by the fact that IgM and IgA in Pentaglobin is chemically modified with ⁇ -Propiolactone This step is replaced by the more gentle procedures according to this invention.
- Product according example 1 without UVC treatment was stored in 10 or 100 ml glass vials (filling volume 5 ml or 50 ml) at 2 - 8°C and analyzed for all parameter according to specification. The results are shown in Table 8. Parameter which are relevant to show stability are the aggregate and fragment content measured with high performance size exclusion chromatography (HPSEC), proteolytic activity (PA) and anticomplementary activity (ACA). These parameter are critical for intravenous tolerability and likely to change during long term storage. At 2 - 8 °C there was no significant change of these parameters. Even at storage at room temperature (23 - 27°C) these values remained within specification, although there is a slight increase of fragments after 24 months at room temperature.
- HPSEC high performance size exclusion chromatography
- PA proteolytic activity
- ACA anticomplementary activity
- the administration of the IgM preparation (15 ml/kg/day) had only minor effects on arterial blood pressure (mean, systolic and diastolic).
- the differences up to 4 hourse after every infusion compared to pretest values did not exceed 4 mmHg. These differences can be considered not biologically relevant.
- C3a levels were determined in plasma samples taken after injection as a marker for unspecific activation of the complement pathway. C3a levels [ng/ml] were only slightly increased by the administration of the IgM preparation (15 mL/kgBW) and were even lower than with the commercially available reference preparation Pentaglobin at equal amounts of IgM. Blood samplings were performed approximately 6 hours after treatment.
- the good tolerability and safety of the IgM preparation was also verified in a human Phase I study in 24 healthy male and female volunteers. Systolic blood pressure in the first 4 hours after administration in the mean decreased only about 9 % (1 1.9 mmHg) after infusion of 91 to 274 mg of the IgM preparation per kg BW/d at 0.5 ml/min.
