摘要:
The present invention relates to novel pharmaceutical formulations for the release of an active principle (AP) over a sustained period of time of several days, or even several weeks.The invention relates, in a first aspect, to a liquid formulation comprising at least one active principle (AP) and an aqueous suspension based on colloïdal particles of a polymer (PO), wherein said formulation satisfies the following four conditions:(a) the polymer (PO) is a polyamino acid comprising glutamic residues, wherein some glutamic residues each carry a pendant cationic group (CG), said cationic groups being identical or different from one another, and other glutamic residues each carry a pendent hydrophobic group (GH), said hydrophobic groups (GH) being identical or different from one another, (b) the pHf value of the pH of said formulation is between 3.0 and 6.5; (c) at the pHf value, the polymer (PO) forms a colloïdal solution which associates spontaneously and noncovalently with the active principle (AP); (d) 1 ml of said formulation precipitates during mixing with a volume of 1 ml of a test buffer solution Tp. The invention also relates to a process for the preparation of such formulations and to a process for the preparation of medicaments including such formulations.

The present invention relates to novel particles comprising polyelectrolyte polymers which are transporters of active principle (AP), in particular protein and peptide active principle, and to novel modified-release pharmaceutical formulations comprising said AP microparticles.These novel particles loaded with AP release the AP over a prolonged period of time of several days, or even several weeks.The invention relates, in a first aspect, to particles comprising: a) a first polyelectrolyte polymer (PE1) in a charged state, carrying side hydrophobic groups (GH), wherein said first polyelectrolyte polymer (PE1) can spontaneously form, in water, a colloidal solution of particles at least one pHm value of the pH of between 3 and 8; b) a second polyelectrolyte polymer (PE2) of opposite polarity to the first polyelectrolyte polymer (PE1), wherein said second polyelectrolyte polymer (PE2) forms, in water, a solution or a colloidal solution at said pHm value of the pH; and c) at least one active principle (AP) associated noncovalently with the particles of the colloidal solution of the first polyelectrolyte polymer (PE1); wherein said particles are obtained by mixing, at a pH equal to pHm, the first polyelectrolyte polymer (PE1), in the form of a colloidal solution of particles associated with the active principle (AP), with the second polyelectrolyte polymer (PE2), in the form of a solution or colloidal solution. The invention also relates to the process for the preparation of these particles, to a pharmaceutical formulation comprising such particles and to a process for the preparation of medicaments.
摘要:
The present invention pertains to interferon-beta (IFN-beta) compositions comprising interferon-beta and a grafted poly(glutamic acid) polymer having an average molecular weight between 26,000 and 40,000 g/mol, grafted with alpha-tocopherol substituents, the average molar grafting ratio being 4.5-5.5 moles %, the weight/weight ratio between said grafted poly(glutamic acid) polymer and IFN-beta being between 24 and 125. The present invention also pertains to the preparation methods of such compositions and their application to obtain therapeutic compositions in dosage unit form delivering IFN-beta over an extended period of time.
