摘要:
Formulations for controlled, prolonged release of GM-CSF have been developed. These are based on solid microparticles formed of the combination of biodegradable, synthetic polymers such as poly(lactic acid) (PLA), poly(glycolic acid) (PGA), and copolymers thereof with excipients and drug loadings that yield zero order or first order release, or multiphasic release over a period of approximately three to twenty one days, preferably one week, when administered by injection. In the preferred embodiment, the microparticles are microspheres having diameters in the range of 10 to 60 microns, formed of a blend of PLGA having different molecular weights, most preferably 6,000, 30,000 and 41,000. Other embodiments have been developed to alter the release kinetics or the manner in which the drug is distributed in vivo. For example, in some cases a polymer is selected which elicits a mild inflammatory reaction, for example, PLGA and polyanhydrides can act as chemoattractant, either due to the polymer itself or minor contaminants in the polymer, or polymers which are bioadhesive are used for transmucosal or oral delivery. In another embodiment, the GM-CSF is administered in a hydrogel which can be injected subcutaneous or at a specific site for controlled release. The microparticles or hydrogel are administered to the patient in an amount effect to stimulate proliferation of hematopoietic cells, especially white cells.
