Have that to have amino acid sequence of polypeptide and the search sequence of at least for example polypeptide feeling the pulse with the finger-tip of the aminoacid sequence of 95% " identity " identical with the inquiry aminoacid sequence, just the desired polypeptides sequence can comprise nearly five amino acid change in per 100 amino acid of inquiry aminoacid sequence.In other words, obtain to have the polypeptide that has the aminoacid sequence of at least 95% identity with the inquiry aminoacid sequence, can insert, delete or with the amino-acid residue that reaches 5% in the another kind of amino acid replacement aim sequence.These changes of reference sequences can occur in the amino or the C-terminal position of reference amino acid sequence, or between those terminal positions Anywhere, can individually be dispersed between the residue of reference sequences or as with reference to one or more continuous group in the sequence.
In fact, can utilize known computer program determine as usual any specific polypeptide and albumin fusion proteins of the present invention or its fragment (such as the therapeutic protein of albumin fusion proteins partly or the albumin part of albumin fusion proteins) aminoacid sequence whether have for example at least 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98% or 99% identity.Utilization is with people such as Brutlag (Comp.App.Biosci.6:237-245,1990) algorithm is also referred to as global sequence's comparison for the FASTDB computer program on basis can be identified for measuring the preferred method that the best overall between search sequence (sequence of the present invention) and the aim sequence is mated.In sequence alignment, inquiry and aim sequence can all be nucleotide sequences or all be aminoacid sequence.The result of described global sequence comparison represents with identity per-cent.The preferred parameter that is used for the comparison of FASTDB amino acid is: matrix=PAM 0, k-tuple=2, mispairing point penalty=1, connect point penalty=20, randomization group leader=0 is by score=1, window size=sequence length, breach point penalty=5, breach size point penalty=0.05, the shorter one in the length of window size=500 or purpose aminoacid sequence.
If aim sequence because the terminal deletion of N-or C-but not inner deletion is shorter than search sequence must manually revise the result so.This is because the FASTDB program not will consider the N-and the terminal brachymemma of C-of aim sequence when calculating overall identity per-cent.For with respect to the aim sequence of search sequence in the terminal brachymemma of N-and C-, following correction identity per-cent, calculate the N-that is positioned at aim sequence in the search sequence and C-end, not with the residue number of corresponding purpose residue coupling/comparison, as the per-cent of search sequence base sum.Whether residue mates/compare is that result by the FASTDB sequence alignment determines.Deduct this per-cent from the identity per-cent that utilizes special parameter to calculate by above-mentioned FASTDB program then, draw final identity per-cent score.This final identity per-cent score is used for score of the present invention exactly.Artificial N-that only considers to be positioned at aim sequence when adjusting identity per-cent score and C-end, the residue that does not match/compare with search sequence.That is to say, only consider to be positioned at aim sequence N-and C-terminal residue inquiry residue residue in addition farthest.
For example, the aim sequence of 90 amino-acid residues and the search sequence of 100 residues are compared to measure identity per-cent.Deletion occurs in the N-end of aim sequence, so the FASTDB comparison does not show the coupling/comparison result of terminal initial 10 residues of N-.10 unpaired residues account for 10% (the residue sum of the terminal unmatched residue number/search sequence of N-and C-) of sequence, therefore deduct 10% from the identity per-cent score that calculates by the FASTDB program.If remaining 90 residues mate fully, then final identity per-cent will be 90%.In another example, the aim sequence of 90 residues and the search sequence of 100 residues are compared.Current deletion is inner deletion, so the terminal residue that does not have not with search sequence coupling/comparison of the N-of aim sequence or C-.In this case, the identity per-cent that calculates by FASTDB need not manually to revise.Statement once more has only demonstration according to FASTDB comparison to be positioned at beyond the N-and C-end of aim sequence, manually not revise with the residue position needs of search sequence coupling/comparison.Do not carry out the artificial correction of other form in the present invention.
Variant normal HA or the therapeutic protein identical with it with length usually has the sequence identity of at least 75% (preferably at least about 80%, 90%, 95% or 99%).Utilization is for sequence similarity search and program blastp, the blastn, blastx, tblastn and the tblastx that revise (people such as Karlin, Proc.Natl.Acad.Sci.USA 87:2264-2268,1990 and Altschul, J.Mol.Evol.36:290-300,1993, complete being incorporated herein by reference) algorithm that is adopted is analyzed homology or the identity of measuring Nucleotide or amino acid sequence level by BLAST (the promptly basic local comparison research tool of Basic LocalAlignment Search Tool).
The method that blast program utilized is at first considered the similar section between search sequence and the database sequence, and all coupling assessment significance,statisticals that evaluation is drawn are only summed up the coupling that those satisfy predetermined significance threshold values at last then.About the discussion of the basic problem in the similarity searching of sequence library, referring to people such as Altschul, Nature Genetics 6:119-129,1994, with its complete being incorporated herein by reference.The search parameter of histogram, description, comparison, expected value (promptly reporting the significance,statistical threshold value at the coupling of database sequence), cutoff, matrix and strainer all adopts default setting.The acquiescence rating matrix that blastp, blastx, tblastn and tblastx adopted is BLOSUM62 matrix (people such as Henikoff, Proc.Natl.Acad.Sci.USA 89:10915-10919,1992, complete being incorporated herein by reference).For blastn, by the ratio of M (the prize branch that promptly mates residue) and N (point penalty of the residue that promptly do not match) rating matrix is set, wherein the default value of M and N is respectively 5 and-4.Can four blastn parameter: Q=10 of following adjustment (breach generation point penalty); R=10 (breach extension point penalty); Wink=1 (producing the speech hits in each winkth position) along search sequence; And gapw=16 (set window width, wherein generation contains the breach comparison).Equal blastp parameter is set to Q=9; R=2; Wink=1 and gapw=32.The DNA parameter that comparison program Bestfit uses between the sequence that can obtain from GCG software package version 10.0 is GAP=50 (breach generation point penalty) and LEN=3 (breach extension point penalty), and the protein comparison be set to GAP=8 and LEN=2 on an equal basis.

In another embodiment, the polynucleotide of the therapeutic protein part of coding albumin fusion proteins do not comprise the natural of therapeutic protein and have sequence or can't help its composition.In another embodiment, the polynucleotide of the albumin protein part of coding albumin fusion proteins do not comprise the natural of albumin protein and have sequence or can't help its composition.In candidate's embodiment, the polynucleotide of coding albumin fusion proteins do not comprise the therapeutic protein part or there is sequence in the natural of albumin protein part or can't help its composition.
The natural variant that exists is called " allele variant ", refers to that (B. compiles one of several replaceable forms that occupy the gene of given locus on the organism karyomit(e), John Wiley ﹠amp for Genes II, Lewin; Sons, New York, 1985).These allele variants can be different at polynucleotide and/or polypeptide level, and comprise in the present invention.Perhaps, can prepare the variant that non-natural exists by induced-mutation technique or direct synthetic technology.
Utilize the method for known protein matter engineering and recombinant DNA technology, can produce variant to improve or to change the feature of polypeptide of the present invention.For example, can delete one or more amino acid and not cause the substance of biological function to be lost from the N-end or the C-end of polypeptide of the present invention.For example, people such as Ron (J.Biol.Chem.268:2984-2988,1993) have reported even have still had the variant KGF protein of heparin binding activity behind 3,8 or 27 amino terminal amino acid residues of deletion.Similarly, IFN-shows higher activity people such as (, J.Biotechnology 7:199-216,1988) Dobeli that reaches ten times behind 8-10 amino-acid residue of proteinic C-terminal deletion from then on.
And, there is competent evidence to prove, variant can keep and the natural similar biologic activity of protein that exists usually.For example, Gayle and colleague thereof (J.Biol.Chem.268:22105-22111,1993) have carried out mutation analysis widely to human cell factor IL-1a.They utilize random mutagenesis to produce above 3,500 kinds of unique IL-1a mutant, and promptly every kind of variant on average has 2.5 amino acid changes on the total length of molecule.At each possible amino acid position various mutations is checked.The researchist finds " most molecules can be very little to [combination or biologic activity] influence when being changed ".In fact, in surpassing in 3,500 kinds of nucleotide sequences of checking, have only 23 kinds of unique amino acid sequences to produce activity and the remarkable different protein of wild-type.
And, even can cause the modification or the forfeiture of one or more biological functions, but still can keep other biologic activity from the N-end or the one or more amino acid of the terminal deletion of C-of polypeptide.For example, when N-end or C-end are removed the most residue that is less than secreted form, might keep that the deletion variant is induced and/or in conjunction with the ability of the antibody of identification secreted form.The ordinary method of knowing by described herein and other approach of this area can be easy to determine whether the specific polypeptide that lacks proteinic N-end or C-terminal residue has kept this immunogenicity activity.
Therefore, the present invention also comprises and has functionally active the polypeptide variants of (biological example is learned activity and/or therapeutic activity).In one embodiment, the invention provides the albumin fusion proteins variant with the functionally active corresponding with one or more biology of therapeutic protein and/or therapeutic activity (biological example is learned activity and/or therapeutic activity), wherein therapeutic protein is corresponding to the therapeutic protein part of albumin fusion proteins.In another embodiment, the invention provides and have the functionally active corresponding with one or more biology of therapeutic protein and/or therapeutic activity the albumin fusion proteins variant of (biological example is learned active/or therapeutic activity), wherein therapeutic protein is corresponding to the therapeutic protein part of albumin fusion proteins.This variant comprise select according to general rule known in the art, to the very little deletion of activity influence, insertion, inversion, repetition with substitute.The polynucleotide of this variant of encoding are also contained in the present invention.
In preferred embodiments, variant of the present invention has conservative substituting." conservative substituting " refers to exchange in group, such as the replacement of aliphatics or hydrophobic amino acid Ala, Val, Leu and Ile; The replacement of hydroxyl residue Ser and Thr; The replacement of acidic residues Asp and Glu; The replacement of amide residues Asn and Gln; The replacement of alkaline residue Lys, Arg and His; The replacement of aromatic residue Phe, Tyr and Trp; And the replacement of small-sized amino acid Ala, Ser, Thr, Met and Gly.
For example, people such as Bowie, " Deciphering the Message in Protein Sequences:Tolerance to Amino Acid Substitutions ", Science 247:1306-1310, provide in 1990 about how carrying out phenotype silent amino acid alternate and instructed, wherein the author points out to study aminoacid sequence has two kinds of main strategies to the tolerance that changes.
First kind of strategy utilized the tolerance of the amino acid replacement of natural selection in the evolutionary process.Can identify conserved amino acid by the aminoacid sequence that compares different plant species.These conserved amino acids may be important to proteinic function.On the contrary, the amino acid position of the replacement that tolerated of natural selection shows that these positions are not vital to protein function.Therefore, can modify the position of tolerance amino acid replacement, still keep this proteinic biologic activity simultaneously.
Second kind of strategy utilizes genetic engineering to introduce the amino acid variation at the specific position of clone gene, to identify the vital zone of protein function.For example, can use site-directed mutagenesis or alanine scanning mutagenesis (each the residue place in molecule introduces single alanine mutation).Referring to Cunningham and Wells, Science 244:1081-1085,1989.Can test the biologic activity of the mutating molecule of generation like this then.
As the author said, these two kinds of strategies have disclosed the surprising tolerance amino acid replacement of albumen mass-energy.The author has pointed out that also it is that some amino acid position might be allowed in the protein which amino acid changes.For example, the amino-acid residue that great majority bury (in proteinic tertiary structure) needs non-polar sidechain, and the seldom characteristic of surface side chains is normally guarded.And the conserved amino acid of tolerance substitutes the replacement that relates to aliphatics or hydrophobic amino acid Ala, Val, Leu and Ile; The replacement of hydroxyl residue Ser and Thr; The replacement of acidic residues Asp and Glu; The replacement of amide residues Asn and Gln; The replacement of alkaline residue Lys, Arg and His; The replacement of aromatic residue Phe, Tyr and Trp; And the replacement of small-sized amino acid Ala, Ser, Thr, Met and Gly.Except that conserved amino acid substitutes, variant of the present invention comprises that (i) contains the alternate polypeptide of one or more non-conservative amino acid residues, wherein the alternate amino-acid residue can yes or no by the genetic code coding, or (ii) contain one or more alternate polypeptide with substituent amino-acid residue, or (iii) merge or chemically conjugated polypeptide such as the compound (for example polyoxyethylene glycol) that improves polypeptide stability and/or solubleness, or (iv) contain other amino acid such as for example polypeptide of IgG Fc district fusogenic peptide with another compound.According to the instruction of this paper, think that this variant polypeptide is within those skilled in the art's scope.
For example, contain the polypeptide variants that useful other electrically charged or neutral amino acids substitutes the amino acid replacement of charge residue and can produce protein, such as assembling still less with improved characteristics.The gathering of pharmaceutical formulations not only reduces activity, but also improves the removing that the immunogenicity because of aggregation causes.Referring to people such as Pinckard, Clin.Exp.Immunol.2:331-340,1967; People such as Robbins, Diabetes 36:838-845,1987; People such as Cleland, Crit.Rev.Therapeutic Drug Carrier Systems 10:307-377,1993.

The structure of embodiment 24:GAS reporter molecule construction
A kind of signal transduction pathway that will be referred to cytodifferentiation and propagation is called the Jaks-STAT approach.Activated protein bound γ activates site " GAS " element or interferon-sensitive response element (" ISRE ") in the Jaks-STAT approach, and they are arranged in the promotor of many genes.Protein changes Expression of Related Genes with combining of these elements.
GAS and ISRE element are subjected to being called the identification of the class transcription factor of signal transducer and transcriptional activator or " STAT ".There are six members in STAT family.Stat1 and Stat3 are present in many cell types, and Stat2 is (as being general to replying of IFN-α) too.Stat4 is more limited, and does not exist in many cell types, though found in the cell after it is handled at I class t helper cell, with IL-12.Stat5 is called the mammoplasia factor at first, but has been found that it is present in other cell with greater concn, comprises medullary cell.It can be subjected to the activation of many cytokines in tissue culture cells.
STAT is transferred to nuclear because of the one group of kinase whose tyrosine phosphorylation that is called Janus kinases (" Jaks ") family activates from tenuigenin.Jaks has represented a unique family of solubility Tyrosylprotein kinase, comprises Tyk2, Jak1, Jak2 and Jak3.These kinases are showed significant sequence similarity, and catalytically inactive in resting cell usually.
Jaks is subjected to the activation of the multiple acceptor that following table sums up.(reorganization is from the summary of Schidler and Darnell, Ann.Rev.Biochem.64:621-51,1995).The cytokine receptor family that can activate Jaks is divided into two groups: (a) 1 class comprises the acceptor of IL-2, IL-3, IL-4, IL-6, IL-7, IL-9, IL-11, IL-12, IL-IS, Epo, PRL, GH, G-CSF, GM-CSF, LIF, CNTF and thrombopoietin; (b) 2 classes comprise IFN-a, IFN-g and IL-10.1 receptoroid has a conservative halfcystine motif (one group of 4 conservative halfcystine and 1 tryptophane) and WSXWS motif (the nearly central section of film of coding Trp-Ser-Xaa-Trp-Ser (SEQ ID NO:53))
Therefore, after part and receptors bind, Jaks is activated, and it activates STAT then, and it shifts and subsequently in conjunction with the GAS element.This whole process is included in the Jaks-STAT signal transduction pathway.Therefore, the activation by the Jaks-STAT approach that combination reflected of GAS or ISRE element can be used for indicating the protein that relates to cell proliferation and differentiation.For example, known somatomedin and cytokine activate Jaks-STAT approach (table 5 sees below).Therefore, by using the GAS element that is connected with acceptor molecule, can identify the incitant of Jaks-STAT approach.

The antiviral response predictor of SVR
The antiviral response predictor (predictor) of SVR is defined as treatment the 12nd when week HCV RNA titre negative (HCV RNA titre<LOQ), its subordinate phase slope>0.6log/wk (2 phase slope).Two kinds of activity of each stage antiviral response rate of curve indication.Fs demonstrates the direct antiviral activity of replying.Subordinate phase indication treatment compound is to the destruction of HCV cells infected.So, the numerical value of subordinate phase slope>0.6log/wk is the good predictor (positive predicted value (PPV)>90%) of SVR.
The antiviral response predictor of SVR during the 12nd all ITT is maximum in HSA-IFN α 2b 1200 μ gQ2w treatment groups, wherein 82/110 experimenter or 74.5% (final interim analysis (finalinterim analysis)) (77/104 experimenter or 74.0% (preliminary interim analysis (preliminaryinterim analysis))) to have HCV RNA negative levels (be that level is lower than LOQ (<43IU/mL)) and 58% and shows subordinate phase slope>0.6log/wk, comparatively speaking, PEG-IFN contrast treatment group is 75/114 experimenter or 65.8% (final interim analysis) (70/112 experimenter or 62.5% (preliminary interim analysis)) and 49%.These data show that in the 12nd week, HSA-IFN α 2b 1200 μ g Q2w treatment plans have suitable with the PEG-IFN conventional treatment at least antiviral activity.Because in the 12nd when week HSA-IFN α 2b 1200 μ g Q2w treatment plans patient's number of RNA feminine gender (HCV RNA titre level is lower than LOQ) than PEG-IFN contrast treatment larger about 9% (final interim analysis) and 12% (tentatively interim analysis), and the subordinate phase slope is larger about 9% (the preliminary interim analysis of final sum the two), so the possible HSA-IFN of being α 2b 1200 μ g Q2w treatment plans can cause remarkable effect, it surpasses conventional PEG-IFN treatment.The negative patient's number of HCV RNA is similar to the PEG-IFN conventional treatment in HSA-IFN α 2b 900 μ g Q2w and the HSA-IFN α 2b 1200 μ gQ4w treatment groups.
The 20th week and the 24th when all the antiviral response predictor of SVR be expressed as HCV RNA titre and be lower than detection level (LOD) (<10IU/mL) experimenter.The antiviral response predictor of SVR is maximum in HSA-IFN α 2b 1200 μ g Q2w treatment groups during the 20th week, wherein 82/110 experimenter or 74.5% (final interim analysis) have detection less than the HCV rna level (promptly<10IU/mL), comparatively speaking, PEG-IFN contrast treatment is 77/114 experimenter or 67.5% (final interim analysis).Similarly, the antiviral response predictor of SVR is maximum in IFN α 2b 1200 μ gQ2w treatment groups during the 24th week, wherein 64/91 experimenter or 70.3% (final interim analysis) have detection less than the HCV rna level, and PEG-IFN contrast treatment have 57/90 experimenter or 63.3% have detection less than the HCV rna level.The data in the 20th week and the 24th week show that all HSA-IFN α 2b 1200 μ g Q2w treatment plans have antiviral activity and security, and use the conventional treatment of PEG-IFN suitable at least with the improvement dosage regimen.
The normalizing of ALT level
The measurement commonly used of liver function is alanine transaminase (ALT) level among the patient.One of characteristics of HCV infected patient are the high Serum ALT levels of indication liver injury.So, the normalizing of ALT level is corresponding to the improvement of liver function, and to the favourable prognosis of treatment response.Although all representing the ALT level of sening as an envoy to, all treatment plans recover more normal abilities; yet in HSA-IFN α 2b 1200 μ g Q4w treatment plans, observe the most significant effect, wherein compare the ALT level that patient's (preliminary interim analysis of final sum) above twice has realized normalizing with the PEG-IFN conventional treatment.So, with the HSA-IFN α 2b of 1200 μ g Q4w dosed administrations make genotype 1, not accept HCV patient's the liver function recovery of IFN treatment more effective than conventional PEG-IFN treatment unexpectedly aspect normal.
The hematology effect
The full dosage IFN and the RBV that guarantee to obey and be exposed in the combined treatment are vital for making the maximization of SVR ratio.
Hematology is common during being reduced in the combination therapy of IFN and RBV.Oxyphorase (Hb) is owing to the reduction that haemolysis that RBV brought out causes need reduce RBV dosage.Particularly, Hb<12g/dL requires RBV was reduced to 800mg/ days from 1000-1200mg/ days.Recurrence is vital to RBV dosage for prevention HCV.HSA-IFN α 2b 1200 μ g Q4W treatment plans make the amplitude of Hb reduction<12g/dL significantly reduce (52% 65% (final interim analysis) than PEG-IFN unexpectedly; 49.1% 64% (preliminary interim analysis)) than PEG-IFN.This recurrence rate that can be interpreted as HSA-IFN α 2b 1200 μ g Q4W treatment plans is lower, causes SVR to improve.
ANC reduction<750/mm
3Require to reduce IFN dose of components in the combination therapy.Unexpectedly, HSA-IFN α 2b 1200 μ g Q4W treatment plans make ANC<750/mm
3The reduction amplitude significantly reduces, and this compares with PEG-IFN, and (6% than 20.2% (final interim analysis); 4.3% than 17.5% (preliminary interim analysis)).This is interpreted as reducing under the less condition of amplitude at the desired dosage of HSA-IFN α 2b 1200 μ g Q4W treatment plans once more, and the SVE ratio is higher.
Similar hematology takes place and reduces in the 12nd when week between HSA-IFN α 2b Q2w and PEG-IFN treatment group.Unexpectedly, the 12nd week in HSA-IFN α 2b 1200 μ g Q4w treatment groups viewed hematological indices reduction amplitude than viewed little by about 75% in PEG-IFN treatment group.These results show, compare with conventional PEG-IFN treatment, and HSA-IFN α 2b Q4w can provide the safety features of brilliance and the recurrence rate of improvement.
Conclusion
In the 12nd week, in HSA-IFN α 2b 1200 μ g Q2w treatment groups, observe genotype 1, do not accept the maximum antiviral activity of the HCV of IFN treatment.In HSA-IFN α 2b 1200 μ g Q2w and PEG-IFN treatment group, also observe the similar effect that hematology is reduced.In addition, in the 20th week and the 24th week, in HSA-IFN α 2b 1200 μ g Q2w treatment groups, also observe maximum antiviral activity.The 20th the week and the 24th week in HSA-IFN α 2b 900 μ g Q2w treatment groups, continued to observe suitable antiviral activity.Correspondingly, HSA-IFN α 2b 900 μ g Q2w can provide suitable with current standard treatment PEG-IFN at least effect and safety features, but it has the dosage regimen of improvement, has made things convenient for the patient widely.In addition, 1200 μ g Q2w can provide suitable with current standard treatment PEG-IFN at least safety features, but the remarkable effect and the dosage regimen of improvement can be arranged, thereby greatly facilitate the patient.
Use the treatment of HSA-IFN α 2b 1200 μ g Q4w schemes demonstrating unexpectedly in the 12nd week and the suitable effect of conventional PEG-IFN treatment, even the experimenter who accepts the PEG-IFN conventional treatment is owing to dosage regimen has been accepted extra 3 doses of PEG-IFN.The effect that HSA-IFN α 2b 1200 μ g Q4w are suitable with conventional PEG-IFN treatment continued through the 20th week and the 24th week.In HSA-IFN α 2b 1200 μ g Q4w treatment groups, also observing the ability of stablizing liver function and significantly alleviating the improvement that the hematology factor reduces the 12nd week, show the improvement of liver injury among these patients and dosage reduces or suspensory incidence and treatment after the reduction of the incidence that may recur.So, these presentation of results, the treatment of HSA-IFN α 2b 1200 μ g Q4w can provide with the PEG-IFN combination therapy compares suitable effect, and the dosage regimen that the former advantage is to improve, make the normal ability of liver function recovery bigger, and hematological indices to reduce amplitude less, cause the patient that bigger conformability and bigger facility are arranged, and achievement after the more favourable treatment.In a word, consider the latest developments in HCV therapeutics field, HSA-IFN α 2bQ4W treatment plan will have Ideal Characteristics (for example suitable effect, remarkable tolerance, remarkable convenience cause bigger answering property of clothes), and the Interferon, rabbit trunk that will become the interferon anti-reflecting virus conjoint therapy is selected.
In a word, these presentation of results, to genotype 1, do not accept IFN treatment HCV patient's HSA-IFN α 2b effective as conventional PEG-IFN and RBV combination therapy at least with the RBV combination therapy, advantage is the dosage regimen improved.Particularly, this presentation of results, the treatment of HSA-IFN α 2b associating RBV can have compares remarkable effect and similar safety characteristic, similarly effect and remarkable safety features or remarkable effect and safety features with conventional PEG-IFN associating RBV treatment, but has improvement and highly favourable dosage regimen.
Embodiment 83: chronic hepatitis C (HCV) does not have the response patient to HSA-IFN α 2b associating ribavirin
Reply
Background
Have in the U.S. to surpass 4,000,000 people and infected hepatitis C virus (HCV), make this virus become the common cause of U.S.'s hepatopathy.Think that in history the interferon alpha (IFN α) that has or do not have antiviral molecule ribavirin (RBV) concurrent treatment is to the most effective treatment of patient.Recently, the interferon alpha of PEGization form has been ratified associating RBV and has been used for HCV treatment.These PEGization Interferon, rabbit have demonstrated in treatment HCV more effective than standard Interferon, rabbit or Interferon, rabbit associating ribavirin therapy, and have become the conventional treatment of HCV.
Yet this treatment has great practical limits.Outside the substantive side effect that reduces patients ' life quality during well-known treatment the and considerable ratio that the great hematology relevant with routine treatment reduces, routine treatment is invalid to the patient of the vast scale of accepting current HCV treatment.The clinical studies show of not accepting the HCV patient treatment of IFN α-RBV therapy in the past goes out about 45% patient who starts conventional treatment and fails to remove HCV and keep chronic infection (for example not answering the person).Socially, there is patient's the ratio of response quite little to treatment.
The clinical investigation personnel have made response to the needs of not answering person colony of failing the treatment of previous use IFN α or associating RBV is made the HCV patient of response, promptly control these patients again with the routine treatment of PEGization IFN α and RBV.Referring to Shiffman et al., " Peginterferon alfa-2a andribavirin in patients with chronic hepatitis C who have failed prior treatment, " Gastroenterology 126 (4): 1015-23 (2004).Although the patient of 35% registration in this test does not have the evidence of HCV RNA after treating for 20 weeks with routine treatment, many among these patients have recurred after treatment is ended.So, have only 18% patient in fact realized lasting virus reply (Sustained Viral Response, SVR) and cured HCV.Similarly, when the kaput nothing response of the treatment of controlling previous conventional PEGization IFN α therapy with another kind of PEGization IFN α again patient, according to evidence (anecdotal evidence), have only these patients of about 5-10% can realize SVR according to unmatchful.So, not only a kind of interferon therapy has been failed but also all kaput patient of all current interferon therapies colony continues significantly to increase.Therefore, obviously the treatment plan that needs improvement, not only be used for general HCV treatment, but also those are previous with patients of interferon therapy treatment (for example accepting IFN α treatment) with do not answer the person as treatment, particularly those nothings that are difficult to treat most response patients' (treatment of the current routine treatment of for example previous use or control kaput patient again) alternative therapy.
Ultimate principle
By the albuminised C-terminal gene of maturation being merged N-end, produce HSA-IFN α 2b to ripe Interferon Alpha-2b.Security, tolerance and the effect of the treatment of HSA-IFN α 2b associating RBV in clinical study random packet, open-label (accepting not answering in the person HCV human patients of IFN α treatment carries out), have been assessed.For this research, do not answer the person to be defined as those and reduce (for example the 12nd week early stage virus was replied or EVR12) failing to realize SVR after the HCV patient who stops previous treatment the 12nd week or those are finished treatment plan patient owing to fail to realize the 2-log of HCV rna level.Get rid of outside research the patient who ends the recurrence of treatment back.In addition, at least 50% the previous PEGization IFN of patient α treatment plan has been failed in this research.
Method
The person HCV patient that do not answer that the kaput people IFN of previous at least a IFN α treatment plan α was once received treatment is divided into 3 subcutaneous (sc) HSA-IFN α 2b treatment groups at random: (a) 900 μ g whenever biweekly (Q2w); (b) 1200 μ g Q2w and (c) 1200 μ g every around once (Q4w).Every experimenter in each treatment group also accepts 1000-1200mg/ days RBV.After the data of safety of assessment from these three initial groups, the dosage of HSA-IFN α 2b is amplified in two extra groups of follow-up increase, they accept HSA-IFN α 2b and unite 1000-1200mg/ days RBV with 1500 μ g Q2w or 1800 μ g Q2w.
The treatment time length of this research was 48 weeks, followed up a case by regular visits in 24 weeks in addition.The main effect terminal point of this research is to continue virusology to reply (SVR).

Demography
Identify many Demographics, served as the individual index that those tend to not respond the patient of treatment.Predictor comprises before the crucial treatment of these of non-responsiveness: (1) genotype 1, and (2) high baseline intermediate value HCV rna level, (3) had not before responded the PEG+RBV therapy, (4) African American, the horizontal F3-F4 of (5) fibrosis in late period (uses
Staging) and (6) high BMI (for example 〉=25mg/kg).Perhaps, the best overall index of responsiveness is not the number based on the therapy of IFN of previous PEG-RBV treatment failure and previous failure.
Experimenter's demography is summarized in table 12.In a word, all experimenter's demographys are similar in all treatment groups.Most of experimenters have been exposed to above a kind of IFN of containing α scheme and previous PEG+RBV therapy and have failed.In addition, though the baseline genius morbi is suitable between 5 treatment groups, 1800 μ g Q2w treatment groups have preceding HCV RNA of significantly higher treatment and the most a high proportion of previous PEG+RBV failure.So, the experimenter in the 1800 μ g Q2w treatment groups has presented maximum treatment refractoriness patient group.

Effect and biologic activity
Table 13 has shown HCVRNA that genotype 1, PEG+RBV do not answer person, the refractoriness HCV patient group reduction with respect to level before the treatment during treating.In 2-12 week, the degree that HCV RNA reduces is suitable between 900-1500 μ g treatment group.Yet, in 1800 μ g treatment groups, observe maximum virus load and reduce.Consider HCV RNA and the most a high proportion of PEG+RBV failure before the higher levels of treatment in this treatment group, this is unexpected.The degree of treatment 12 all antiviral response has reflected the subordinate phase slope of dynamics of virus and has been the positive predictor (positivepredictor) of SVR.
As shown in figure 12, not answer the HCVRNA of person's 900-1500 μ g treatment group to reduce slope be suitable in the 12nd week for genotype 1, PEG+RBV.Unexpectedly, the HCV RNA reduction degree of 1800 μ g treatment groups is maximum.It is suitable that the HCV RNA of 1500 μ g of this patient subgroups and 1800 μ g treatment groups was reduced in for the 24th week.
In the 24th week, experimenter's ratio of HCV RNA feminine gender is suitable between 900-1500 μ g treatment group.According to investigator's judgement and consider from cumulative data (showing the high negative predicted value that SVR is lacked EVR12 and the 24th all RNA feminine genders) based on the therapy of Interferon, rabbit, allow the experimenter end in default of effect in the 24th week.(end-of-treatment response, ETR, the 48th all HCV feminine genders) replied at the whole end of overall treatment of 900-1200 μ g treatment group is 30% (22/73).So, realized ETR in the 12nd week (for example EVR12) or the experimenter at high proportion who becomes HCV RNA feminine gender the 24th week.In addition, continuing during most of experimenters (13/22) following up a case by regular visits in the 12nd week after 48 week treatments is HCV RNA feminine gender.This shows that the potential SVR after the HSA-IFN α 2b/RBV treatment is 18%.
In a word, these data show, with 900-1200 μ g HSA-IFN α 2b associating RBV treat PEG+RBV failure at high proportion, once accept IFN α treatment, refractoriness HCV patient causes strong and suitable antiviral activity.This treatment refractoriness do not answer also observe in the person colony low virus break through (breakthrough) rate (for example HCV RNA detect less than but are male at two or more time points subsequently) and low recurrence rate.In addition, in 1800 μ g treatment groups, also observe significant reduction by a larger margin in 12 week, show that the SVR that unites the patient of ribavirin therapy with HSA-IFN α 2b with this dosage leads remarkable rising can be arranged in treatment.

The hematology effect
The full dosage IFN and the RBV that guarantee the conformability for the treatment of and be exposed in the combined treatment are vital for making SVR lead maximization.
Hematology is common during being reduced in the combination therapy of IFN and RBV.Recurrence is vital to RBV dosage for prevention HCV.Yet oxyphorase (Hb) and thrombocyte (PLT) counting is because the reduction RBV dosage that lowers the requirement that the haemolysis that RBV brought out causes.Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) reduction<750/mm
3Require to reduce IFN dose of components in the combination therapy.
Reduce although observe some ANC and PLT, these are reduced between all Q2w treatment groups is suitable, and reaches platform (plateau) in about 4-8 week.Same, it is suitable that Hb (comprises 1800 μ g treatment groups) with respect to being reduced in of baseline between all Q2w treatment groups, after the 12nd week reached.Being reduced in the Q4w treatment group of hematology numerical value is less.Generally, there is 12/115 experimenter to reduce dosage in order to control adverse events.Most of HSA-IFN α 2b dosage reduce the reduction that is derived from ANC, as what summarized in the treatment plan.Between Q2w treatment group, do not observe dose response.So, not observing needing that dosage reduces in high-dose therapy group more increases.
In a word, though hematology numerical value is observed in the treatment of HSA-IFN α 2b associating RBV some reductions are arranged, these are reduced between each treatment group is suitable, shows with 900-1800 μ gHSA-IFN α 2b associating RBV treatment once to accept do not have significant difference between IFN α security treatment, that do not answer person HCV patient.
Conclusion
In a word, the treatment of these presentation of results HSA-IFN α 2b and RBV is realizing that aspect the SVR be effective, and so remarkable ratio accept not the answering among the person HCV patient of IFN α treatment, comprise among those kaput patients of previous PEG+RBV treatment plan and eradicated HCV.Particularly, these presentation of results, the treatment of HSA-IFN α 2b 900-1200 μ g associating RBV can cause 18% patient to realize SVR, even also is like this in the situation of PEG+RBV failure formerly.In addition, 1800 μ g treatment groups demonstrate the 24th maximum all HCV RNA negative rate in most of refractoriness patient groups, show that this treatment can cause these patients even bigger SVR leads.In addition, the safety features between all treatment groups of HSA-IFN α 2b is similar.In addition, these results show, per two to use HSA-IFN α 2b around thoughtful be useful, thereby the dosage regimen that improves is provided.Therefore, these results show, the treatment of HSA-IFN α 2b associating RBV is the kaput patient of those therapies based on Interferon, rabbit, those conventional PEGization Interferon, rabbit-kaput patients of RBV therapy effective and safe treatment alternatives of providing this area to lack at present particularly, it has dosage regimen favourable and that improve.

Antiviral activity among chronic hepatitis C (HCV) patient who treats
Background
The whole world has and surpasses 1.7 hundred million people and infected hepatitis C virus (HCV), and this virus has become great public health problem, and has become the common cause of whole world hepatopathy rapidly.Acute HCV infection does not have symptom usually, makes early diagnosis be a problem.In fact, HCV infects and trends towards chronic condition, and wherein about 70% acute infection becomes persistent.So, although the new incidence that infects is descending, however popular will the remaining unchanged in the recent period of prediction HCV infection.
Think that in history the interferon alpha (IFN α) that has or do not have antiviral molecule ribavirin (RBV) concurrent treatment is to the most effective treatment of chronic hepatitis C (CHC) patient.Recently, the interferon alpha of PEGization form has been ratified associating RBV and has been used for HCV treatment.These PEGization Interferon, rabbit have demonstrated in treatment HCV more effective than standard Interferon, rabbit or Interferon, rabbit associating ribavirin therapy, and have become the conventional treatment of HCV.
The overall antiviral response (SVR) that continues to current recommended therapy changes in CHC patient greatly, depends on virus and host's characteristic, particularly virogene type.For example, the scope of SVR ratio is about 42-46% among more common genotype 1 patient.On the other hand, the SVR ratio is 76-80% among more uncommon genotype 2 or 3 patients.In addition, 1 patient compares with genotype, and genotype 2 that treatment difficulty reduces greatly or 3 patients can treat with shorter treatment time with the ribavirin of low dosage more.
Although to the current recommended therapy of genotype 2 or 3, promptly PEGization Interferon, rabbit associating RBV reached for 24 weeks, then was 24 all follow-up period, caused the patient of great ratio to realize SVR, and this treatment plan has still kept and the great practical limits of therapy common based on IFN.Particularly, current recommended therapy still is subjected to the puzzlement of untoward reaction, promptly in the quality of life of using the substantive patient of reduction in back at every turn.So, continue to need effectively and the patient that infected genotype 2 or 3HCV tolerates better new treatment plan.
Ultimate principle
By the albuminised C-terminal gene of maturation being merged N-end, produce HSA-IFN α 2b to ripe Interferon Alpha-2b.The security and the effect of the treatment of HSA-IFN α 2b associating RBV in the clinical study of random packet, polycentric, open-label (in genotype 2 or 3, do not accept to carry out in the CHC human patients of IFN treatment), have been assessed.
Method
43 genotype 2 or 3, the human HCV patient that do not accept IFN treatment are randomized into two subcutaneous (sc) HSA-IFN α 2b treatment groups: (a) 1500 μ g dosed administrations, whenever biweekly (Q2w) or (2) 1500 μ g dosed administrations, every around once (Q4w).Every experimenter in each treatment group also accepts 800mg/ days RBV.The main foundation of grouping comprise genotype (2 or 3) and HCV RNA (<800,000IU/mL or 〉=800,000IU/mL).
The treatment time length of this research was 24 weeks, followed up a case by regular visits in 24 weeks in addition.Main effect terminal point (primary efficacy end-point) is to continue virusology to reply (SVR).

ITT=is absorbed in treatment; (experimenter meets the condition of the 12nd week visit) of being absorbed in treatment that MITT=revises
Degree that HCV RNA reduces and the genotype 2 of HCV RNA<LOQ or 3 patients' ratio are suitable between HSA-IFN α 2b Q2w and two treatment groups of HSA-IFN α 2b Q4w.In the 4th week, the genotype 2 of HCV RNA<LOQ or 3 patients' ratio, 1500 μ g Q2w treatment groups are 76.2% and 1500 μ g Q4w treatment groups are 68.2%.In the 12nd week, a high proportion of genotype 2 or its HCV RNA<LOQ of 3 patients (1500Q2w be 82.4% and 1500Q4w is 88.9%) are arranged all in two treatment groups.
So, these results show, cause powerful antiviral response rate with 1500 μ g HSA-IFN α 2b Q2w or Q4w therapeutic gene type 2 or 3HCV patient.In addition, in genotype 2 or 3 patients, the treatment of HSA-IFN α 2b 1500 μ g Q4w schemes demonstrates the suitable effect of treatment with HSA-IFN α 2b 1500 μ g Q2w schemes.So, these presentation of results, the treatment of HSA-IFN α 2b 1500 μ g Q2w or the Q4w current recommended therapy as the patient who has infected HCV genotype 2 or 3 at least is effective, and advantage is the dosage regimen improved greatly, thereby causes remarkable tolerance and made things convenient for the patient.
Embodiment 85: with the genotype 1 of HSA-IFN α 2b associating ribavirin therapy, do not accept interference
The chronic hepatitis C of extract for treating (HCV) patient's quality of life (QOL)
Background
As previously mentioned, reach the conventional treatment in 48 weeks with PEGization interferon alpha associating ribavirin (RBV) therapeutic gene type 1, the HCV patient that do not accept Interferon, rabbit (IFN) treatment and have great practical limits.Because the well-known side effect of interferon therapy of current recommendation, patient's quality of life have substantive the reduction after using Interferon, rabbit at every turn.Current scheme requires weekly at least dosed administration, and the time lengthening that quality of life reduces due to causing treating and the fate of anergy increase.The result is that a large amount of patients ends treatment, and some research report termination rate surpasses 50%.So, obviously the treatment plan that need improve is used for the treatment of the genotype 1HCV among the patient who does not accept the IFN treatment, and requirement is compared with current standard treatment the influence of quality of life and made moderate progress.
Ultimate principle
In the clinical study of positive contrast (active controlled clinical study) (in genotype 1, do not accept to carry out in the HCV human patients of IFN treatment) is arranged, assessed the security and the effect of the treatment of HSA-IFN α 2b associating RBV, and with compare as the conventional treatment that uses PEG-IFN α-2a (PEG-IFN) associating RBV described in the embodiment 82 of actively contrast (active control).In 12 week of treatment, the treatment of using HSA-IFN α 2b associating RBV is united RBV to the influence of QOL and anergy fate (disability days) (for example inoperable fate) with PEG-IFN compare.
