Definitions
- GLP-1 and analogues have been well- characterised over recent years. There is little doubt that the development of a pharmaceutically useful form of GLP-1 , or an analogue thereof, would result in a valuable addition to the available chemotherapeutic products for the treatment of diabetes and other metabolic disorders. It has been made clear that certain fatty-acyl derivatives of GLP-1 are prone to non- covalent self-association, which can lead to clinical failure (cf. Clodfelter DK et al. Effects of non-covalent self-association on the subcutaneous absorption of a therapeutic peptide. Pharm Res 15(2) (1998) 254-262).
- the present invention relates to a new formulation comprising a stabilized GLP-1 compound, such as an analog, fragment or derivative thereof for delivery across pulmonary tissue in vivo.
- a family of fatty-acylated GLP-1 compounds can be solubi- lized to a very high degree in water without formation of insoluble physical aggregates (> 5 mg/mL), are stable in solution without the requirement of additional stabilizing excipients in the formulation (eg. surfactants, cyclodextrins, etc.), are physically stable in solution in the presence of external stresses such as during exposure to high shear encountered during jet or ultrasonic nebulisation and are physically stable without forming insoluble aggregates or fibrillated products over time, and are metabolicly stable. Further, the solution structure of these candidates allow for simple formulation design changes to control pulmonary absorp- tion rates, thus having features which allow optimisation of drug delivery.
- a pulmonary dosage form of a GLP-1 compound whereto is attached a lipo- philic substituent optionally via a spacer represents a non-invasive means of protein drug de- livery without the inconvenience and health/environmental risks associated with traditional injectable, needle-based medications.
- permeability enhancers or absorption promoters are viewed as potentially toxic agents and will require much documentation to prove that they represent no potential harm to human subjects, especially when concerning such sensitive tissues as in the lung.
- One class of potentially approvable enhancers are the protease inhibitors, however they are often required in excessive amounts to improve the delivery efficiency (cf. Patton JS, Bukar J, Nagarajan S. Inhaled insulin. Adv Drug Del Rev 35 (1999) 235-247).
- Gly 8 -GLP-1 (7-37) designates a peptide which relates to GLP-1 (1-37) by the deletion of the amino acid residues at positions 1 to 6 and the substitution of the naturally occurring amino acid residue in position 8 (Ala) with Gly.
- Lys 34 (N ⁇ -tetradecanoyl)-GLP-1(7-37) designates GLP-1 (7-37) wherein the ⁇ -amino group of the Lys residue in position 34 has been tetradecanoylated.
- the present invention relates to a new formulation for use in a pulmonary device, comprising a soluble and, solution stabilized, metabolic stabilized, and/or stress stabilized GLP-1 compound for delivery across pulmonary tissue in vivo.
- the present invention relates to a method for preparing a formulation for use in a pulmonary device, said formulation comprising a soluble and, solution stabilized, metabolic stabilized, and/or stress stabilized GLP-1 compound for delivery across pulmonary tissue in vivo.
- Typical, soluble GLP-1 compounds are compounds that, within the pH range of 4-9, within a temperature range of 0-50°C, in isotonic buffered solutions, at concentrations in solution representing no less than a 1 :1 potency:bioavailable dose ratio when compared to na- tive GLP-1 , demonstrate no formation of insoluble aggregates (or insoluble material), according to techniques acceptable in the art.
- Typical, solution stabilized GLP-1 compounds are compounds, which, in the presence of no stabilizing excipients (e.g. surfactants, cyclodextrins, etc.), within the pH range of 4-9, within a temperature range of 0-50°C, in isotonic buffered solutions, after storage of at least 3 months, demonstrate the presence of:
- no stabilizing excipients e.g. surfactants, cyclodextrins, etc.
- Typical, metabolic stabilized GLP-1 compounds are compounds, which demonstrate, after introduction into mammals within the therapeutic window, terminal plasma half-lives of greater than 1 hour, as measured by techniques acceptable in the art.
- Typical, stress stabilized GLP-1 compounds are compounds which maintain > 75% of initial bioactivity after exposure to conditions associated with manufacturing processes, de- livery processes, handling or storage conditions, as measured by techniques acceptable in the art.
- the therapeutic window is a range of drug concentrations within which the probability of the desired clinical response is relatively high and the probability of unacceptable toxicity is relatively low. Evans, WE ed., Applied Pharmacokinetics : Principles of Therapeutic Drug Monitoring, 3 rd ed, Ch 1-3, 1992.
- a way of preparing a soluble and, solution stabilized, metabolic stabilized, and/or stress stabilized GLP-1 compound ideal for delivery across pulmonary tissue in vivo is by modifying the structure of a GLP-1 analogue by introducing a lipophilic substituent optionally via a spacer.
