Abstract:
The present invention provides a lipid particle which has low cytotoxicity, can stably hold a nucleic acid molecule outside a cell (in blood), and can escape from an endosome and rapidly release the nucleic acid in the cytoplasm; a nucleic acid transfer carrier; a compound for manufacturing a nucleic acid transfer carrier; a method for manufacturing a lipid particle; and a gene transfer method. The lipid particle contains, as constituents, a phospholipid having one or more amino groups and one or more nitrogen-containing heterocyclic groups, a neutral lipid not containing a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic group, a sterol, and a nucleic acid.
Abstract:
Provided is a pharmaceutical composition which contains fulvestrant in an amount of equal to or greater than 8% by mass with respect to the entire mass of the pharmaceutical composition, an aqueous solvent satisfying (1) to (4), and a pharmaceutically acceptable nonaqueous carrier satisfying (A) and (B). (1) Ethanol is contained in an amount of equal to or greater than 8% by mass with respect to the entire mass of the pharmaceutical composition. (2) At least one kind of polyhydric alcohol selected from propylene glycol or 1,3-butylene glycol is contained in an amount of equal to or greater than 3% by mass with respect to the entire mass of the pharmaceutical composition. (3) A content of benzyl alcohol is less than 5% by mass with respect to the entire mass of the pharmaceutical composition. (4) A content of the aqueous solvent is 15% to 50% by mass with respect to the entire mass of the pharmaceutical composition. (A) A content of benzyl benzoate is less than 1% by mass with respect to the entire mass of the pharmaceutical composition. (B) A content of the nonaqueous carrier is 40% to 75% by mass with respect to the entire mass of the pharmaceutical composition.

Abstract:
Provided are a liposome composition which has a practically required long-term preservation stability, and which has a release rate of a drug on the order of several tens of hours due to releasability of a drug being able to be suitably controlled by rendering an inner water phase hyper-osmotic; and a method for producing the same. According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a liposome composition, including liposomes each of which has an inner water phase and an aqueous solution which constitutes an outer water phase and in which the liposomes are dispersed, in which each of the liposomes encapsulates a drug in a dissolved state, an osmotic pressure of the inner water phase is 2-fold to 8-fold relative to the osmotic pressure of the outer water phase, and a release rate of the drug from each of the liposomes is 10%/24 hr to 70%/24 hr in blood plasma at 37° C.; and a method for producing the same.
