摘要:
The present invention relates to hydroxyalkylstarch (HAS)-polypeptide-conjugate (HAS-polypeptide) comprising one or more HAS molecules, wherein each HAS is conjugated to the polypeptide via a carbohydrate moiety or a thioether as well as to methods for the production thereof. In a preferred embodiment, the polypeptide is erythropoietin (EPO).
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method of producing a hydroxyalkyl starch derivative comprising reacting hydroxyalkyl starch of formula (I) at its reducing end which is not oxidized prior to said reaction, with a compound of formula (II) R′NH—R″ (II) wherein R1-R2 and R3 are independently hydrogen or a linear or branched hydroxyalkyl group, and wherein either R′ or R″ or R′ and R″ comprise at least one functional group X capable of being reacted with at least one other compound prior to or after the reaction of (I) and (II), as well as to the hydroxyalkyl starch derivative as such, obtainable by said method, and to a pharmaceutical composition comprising said hydroxyalkyl starch derivative.
摘要:
Conjugates of hydroxyalkyl starch and a protein are provided. The conjugates are formed by a reductive amination reaction between at least one aldehyde group or keto group or hemiacetal group of the hydroxyalkyl starch or of a derivative of the hydroxyalkyl starch, and at least one amino group of the protein, so that the hydroxyalkyl starch or the derivative thereof is covalently linked to the protein via an azomethine linkage or a amino linkage. Methods of producing these conjugates and specific uses of the conjugates also are provided.
摘要:
A method for preparing a conjugate comprising a glycoprotein and a polymer or a derivative of said polymer, wherein the polymer is a hydroxyalkylstarch (HAS), the method comprising the steps a) reacting said glycoprotein with a modified polyol carrying attached thereto, by a covalent linkage, a functional group Z, in the presence of a transferase capable of catalysing formation of a covalent linkage between the glycoprotein and said modified polyol, yielding a glycoprotein covalently linked to a polyol carrying attached thereto, by a covalent linkage, at least one functional group Z, and b) reacting at least one functional group A of the polymer or the derivative thereof with the at least one functional group Z of the glycoprotein added to said glycoprotein during step a), and thereby forming a covalent linkage.
