- biogenic amines include, but are not limited to, L- ⁇ -3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA), 3-(2- aminoethyl)-5-hydroxyindole (5 -hydroxy tryptamine or serotonin), 2-(4-imidazolyl)ethyl amine (histamine), 4-[l-hydroxy-2-(methylamino)ethyl]-l,2-benzenediol (epinephrine), 1- [3 , 4-dihydroxyphenyl] -2-aminoethanol (nor epinephrine) , ⁇ -amino-n-butyric acid , acetylcholine and amino acids.
- L-DOPA L- ⁇ -3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine
- the biogenic amine is serotonin, a serotonin analog, or a serotonergic agonist.
- serotonin analog and “serotonergic agonist” refer to compounds which mimic the activity of serotonin, in particular compounds which act at 5-HT 2A/2C receptors of hepatocytes, which interaction is blocked by methysergide.
- the targeting molecule attached to the surface of the polymeric construct directs the polymeric construct to an appropriate receptor, such as for example, a hepatobiliary receptor.
- a hepatobiliary receptor such as for example, a hepatobiliary receptor.
- target molecules for hepatobiliary receptors can be selected from substituted iminodiacetic acids, N' -substituted derivatives of ethylene diamine N,N- diacetic acid (EDDA), hepatobiliary dyes, hepatobiliary contrast agents, bile salts, hepatobiliary thiol complexes, and hepatobiliary amine complexes.
- the first polymeric matrix is selected from polymers such as poly ly sine, poly(lactide/glycolide), chitosan glutamate, poly (acrylic acid), poly(divinyl glycol), albumin, polycarbonates, polyamines, poly(hydroxybutyric acid), scleroglucans, poly oxypropylene-polyoxy ethylene, polygalacturonic acid (partially esterified) and xanthan gum and the second polymeric component is a copolymer of polylysine and poly(glutamic/aspartic acid).

- the second polymeric component
- the polymeric constructs and pharmaceutical compositions of this invention are useful for the treatment of disease states responsive to biogenic amines, including sympathomimetic amines and autacoids.
- disease states may include, for example, hypertension, shock, cardiac failure, arrhythmias, asthma, allergy, anaphylaxis and diabetes.
- the invention comprises a method of treating a disease state in a mammal by administering to the mammal a therapeutically effective amount of a biogenic amine in a pharmaceutical composition comprising a polymeric construct containing the biogenic amine and a second copolymer of polylysine and poly(glutamic/aspartic acid).
- biogenic amines which as potent neurotransmitters, should be sequestered tightly within a polymeric construct in order to minimize or substantially eliminate interactions with receptors of organs or tissues other than those targeted by the construct.
- the biogenic amine neurotransmitters are water soluble and have polar chemical functionalities.
- the quaternary amines such as epinephrine and acetylcholine, manifest a positive charge over a broad pH range, while the other biogenic amine neurotransmitters are primary amines, positively charged at physiological pH and below.
- biogenic amines evince a pronounced polarity contributed by either a positively charged quaternary amine group or a positively charged primary amine group at physiological pH, they demonstrate unusual water-activity. They are thus difficult to retain within a polymeric construct, resulting in poor storage stability and undesirable, and potentially toxic, leakage after administration.
- Biogenic amines interact with a wide variety of receptors on different cell types, not necessarily associated with the condition to be treated. These cells include, inter alia, neurons, platelets, mast cells, and enterochromaffin cells.
- this invention is directed to the retention of biogenic amines, such as serotonin or a serotonergic agonist, within a targeted polymeric construct.
- biogenic amines such as serotonin or a serotonergic agonist
- the sequestration of serotonin is required not only due to its hormonal function, but also because serotonin acts in vivo as a neurotransmitter in many different cell types not associated with the liver. Therefore if exogenous serotonin, which has been incorporated in a targeted polymer, is not strongly sequestered or retained by the polymer structure, it may leak from the polymer and elicit undesirable pharmacological responses with other cell types that manifest serotonin receptors.
- novel polymeric constructs of this invention provide a means to deliver a biologically active agent within a chemically stable carrier, due to strong ionic bonding and dipole-dipole interactions between the various carrier constituents.
- These chemical interactions effectively lower the water activity of the biologically active agent, e.g. the biogenic amine, within the polymeric construct and thus minimize diffusion of the agent from the polymeric carrier.
- the chemical and physical interactions among the active agents themselves are decreased.
- This invention provides a secondary polymeric anchor by which biologically active agents, including biogenic amines such as serotonin, can be effectively sequestered within a first polymeric matrix for an extended period of time to minimize their leakage to the external environment.
- the invention provides for the sequestration of biogenic amines such as serotonin within a hepatobiliary targeted polymeric construct.
- biogenic amines such as serotonin
- hepatobiliary targeted polymeric construct are retained within the first polymeric matrix using a secondary copolymeric anchor comprising polylysine-poly(glutamic-aspartic acid).
- the use of the polymeric constructs of this invention facilitates the sequestering and delivery of biogenic amines by specific functional group interactions described in this disclosure.
- the carbonyl and amino functional groups of the primary and secondary polymers can react with biogenic amines by engaging in hydrogen bond formation.
- the negatively charged polymeric carboxyl groups can form ionic linkages with positively charged primary and quaternary biogenic amines.
- the targeting and cargo molecules may be retained more securely, which effectively prevents drug leakage into the external aqueous phase.
- PLGA lactic and glycolic acids
- PLGA microspheres generally range in diameter from about 200 to about 1500 Angstroms depending upon the degree of polymerization.
- the first is the incorporation of a copolymer of lysine and glutamic and aspartic acids (or glutamate and aspartate) in the first polymeric matrix as an anchoring molecule for biogenic amines.
- the second aspect is the use of hepatobiliary target molecules bound either to the first polymeric matrix or, optionally, to the anchoring polymer, for delivering the biogenic amine to the hepatocytes of the liver.
- the secondary copolymer may function both to chemically anchor hepatobiliary target molecules and also to retain the biogenic amine.
- the third aspect relates to the interaction between the primary and secondary polymers which contributes to construct stability among the primary polymeric matrix, the secondary polymeric anchor, the active agent, and other construct constituents.
- Representative hepatobiliary targeting molecules include substituted iminodiacetic acids such as N-(2,6-diisopropylphenylcarbamoylmethyl)iminodiacetic acid, N-(2,6- diethylphenyl-carbamoyl methyl)iminodiacetic acid, N-(2,6- dimethylphenylcarbamoylmethyl)iminodiacetic acid, N-(4- isopropy lphenylcarbamoylmethyl) iminodiacetic acid , N-(4-butylphenylcarbamoyl-methyl) iminodiacetic acid, N-(2,3-dimethylphenylcarbamoylmethyl)iminodiacetic acid, N-(3- butylphenyl-carbamoylmethyl)iminodiacetic acid, N-(2-butylphenylcarbamoylmethyl) iminodiacetic acid, N-(4-t-butyl
- a primary polymeric matrix in conjunction with a secondary polylysine- poly(glutamic/aspartic acid) copolymer provides a polymeric construct which anchors not only biogenic amines, but also hepatobiliary target molecules. This construct manifests a complex synergy of interaction that maintains the structural integrity of the entire targeted polymeric carrier system.
- Several polymers have been employed to illustrate the concept and benefits of the dual polymer construct and to delineate the specialized interactions that occur when different primary polymeric matrices are mixed with secondary copolymers.
- One embodiment of a polymeric construct of this invention comprises a polylysine primary polymeric matrix and a secondary anchoring copolymer of polylysine- poly(glutamic-aspartic acids).
- the ionic interaction between the negatively charged ⁇ - and ⁇ -carboxyl groups of glutamic and aspartic acids, respectively, with the positively charged amine groups of biogenic amines enhances retention of the active agent.
- ionic bonding between the carboxyl groups of the hepatobiliary targeting molecule and the amino group of polylysine enhances retention of the targeting molecule on the surface of the polymeric carrier.
- Another embodiment of the invention uses PLGA as the primary polymeric matrix. By varying the molar ratio of glycolide-to-lactide the hydrophilicity of the copolymeric construct may be regulated.
- the primary polymeric matrix thus provides numerous carbonyl functional groups that can participate in hydrogen bond formation.
- the polylysine-poly(glutamic/aspartic) acid secondary copolymeric anchor provides multiple binding sites for all constituents of the carrier. Furthermore, ionic interaction between the positively charged nitrogen atoms of the biogenic amines and the ⁇ -carboxyl groups of aspartic acid and the ⁇ -carboxyl groups of glutamic acid enhances stability.
- a third embodiment of a polymeric construct of this invention employs chitosan glutamate as the primary polymeric matrix.
- Chitosan glutamate is a deacylated derivative of chitin and may be prepared by mixing chitosan and glutamic acid together.
- a key distinction between chitosan glutamate and native chitosan is that chitosan glutamate is water soluble, whereas native chitosan is generally only soluble in dilute organic acids.
- Chitosan glutamate is a polymeric amino sugar with a free amino functional group on carbon #2 of every glucosamine residue which is glycosidically linked ⁇ -(l -» 4) in linear sequence to every other glucosamine residue in the polymer.
- Chitosan glutamate has strong hydrogen bonding functional groups such as hydroxyl and amino groups.
- the molecule manifests an array of positive charges at physiological pH and below, a high molecular weight, good polymer chain flexibility and surface energy properties which favor molecular interaction with other kinds of polymers, including the secondary copolymer of polylysine-poly(glutamic/aspartic acid).
- This construct has a polysaccharide primary polymer backbone.
- the three aforementioned polymer constructs are representative members of distinct polymer classes and illustrate the diversity of polymer carriers.
- Other representative first and primary polymers include, but are not limited to, polycarbophil, a high molecular weight copolymer of acrylic acid cross-linked with divinyl glycol, albumin, polycarbonates, poly amines and poly hydroxy butyric acid.
- Nonionic polymers include polysaccharides such as scleroglucans, homopolysaccharides having glucose subunits, e.g. dextran, starch and hydroxy ethyl starch.

Three 192.5 ⁇ l aliquots of the filtrate were counted on a scintillation counter. The scintillation counter results indicated that 924 ⁇ g serotonin HCl was in the filtrate (95.9% of 963 ⁇ g/ 1.925 ml). Therefore, 4.1 % of the serotonin appeared to have been retained on the filter, presumably due to binding with the albumin.
- Experiment B One ml of the albumin solution (4 mg/ml) from Experiment A was mixed with 20 ⁇ l of the serotonin solution (1 mg/ml) from Experiment A and vortexed for 20 seconds. A 20 ⁇ l aliquot was taken of this mixture for use as standards. The final concentration of albumin in the mixed solution was 4 mg/ml (0.06 mM). The final concentration of serotonin HCl in the mixed solution was 0.020 mg/ml (0.094 mM).
- the 1.0 ml of the solution was placed in a green Centricon tube having a filter with a molecular weight cut-off of 10,000. The sample was then spun for 30 minutes at 6500 rpm. Two 100 ⁇ l aliquots of the filtrate were counted on the scintillation counter.
- an albumin solution (40 mg/ml) was prepared by dissolving 120 mg of albumin in 3.0 ml of 10 mM HEPES buffer, pH 7.0.
- the serotonin solution (1 mg/ml) from Experiment A was used.
- 1.0 ml of this albumin solution was mixed with 20 ⁇ l of the serotonin solution and vortexed for 20 seconds.
- a 20 ⁇ l aliquot was taken of this mixture for use as a standard. This mixture was allowed to stand for 20 minutes.
- the final concentrations of albumin and serotonin HCl in the mixture were 40 mg/ml (0.61 mM) and 0.02 mg/ml (0.094 mM), respectively.

- a poly-lysine-succinyl solution also was prepared with 5.6 mg in 10 ml of HEPES buffer, pH 7.0.
- the DIDA solution contained 8.4 mg in 10 ml HEPES buffer, pH 7.0.
- the amount of serotonin HCl in the filtrate was 5.0 ⁇ g (75.8 % of 20 ⁇ g/3.040 ml). This indicates that 24.2 % of the serotonin was retained by the Centricon filter in this experiment, presumably due to ionic and/or hydrogen bonding interactions between the serotonin and the polymeric components of the solution mixture.

- Example 4 Association of serotonin with poly(L-lactide acid-co-glycolide), poly-Glu- Lys, and N-(2,6-diisopropylphenylcarbamoylmethyl)iminodiacetic acid (DIDA).
- the poly(L-lactide acid-co-glycolide) polymer (PLGA) does not dissolve with acetic acid, ethanol or NaOH, but does dissolve in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). 10 mg of PLGA was dissolved in 0.5 ml of DMSO at 60°C for 30 seconds. Then 9.5 ml of 10 mM HEPES, pH 7.0 was added to the polymer/DMSO and the mixture vortexed.
- Example 3 In a clean test tube, one ml of the Poly-Glu-Lys solution (1 mg/ml) from Example 3 was mixed with 20 ⁇ l of the serotonin HCl solution (1 mg/ml) from Example 1, Experiment A, and warmed to 60°C and vortexed.

The entire mixture was warmed and vortexed.
- the final concentrations of the mixture were as follows: poly (L-lactide acid-co-glycolide): 0.33 mg/ml (1.0 mM) poly-Glu-Lys : 0.65 mg/ml (2.7 mM) serotonin HCl: 0.013 mg/ml (0.061 mM)
- DIDA 0.005 mg/ml (0.0014 mM) 1.0 ml of the solution mixture was placed in a green Centricon tube having a filter with a molecular weight cut-off of 10,000.

- the concentration of serotonin HCl in the filtrate was found to be 7.4 ⁇ g/ml (92.5 % of 20 ⁇ g/2.530 ml). This result indicates that approximately 7.5 % of the serotonin HCl in the original solution mixture was retained on the filter, presumably as part of a complex with the polymers of the solution.
- Example 6 Association of serotonin with ATP, poly-Glu-Lys, poly-lysine, and N-(2,6- diisopropylphenylcarbamoylmethyl) iminodiacetic acid (DIDA).
- the ATP solution was prepared by weighing 10 mg in 10 ml of 10 mM HEPES buffer, pH 7.0.
- 20 ⁇ l of the 1 mg/ml serotonin HCl solution from Example 1, Experiment A was added to 1.13 ml of a poly-Glu-Lys solution (1 mg/ml) and vortexed.
- 26 ⁇ l of a solution of ATP (1 mg/ml) was added and vortexed.
- 1.07 ml of a poly-Lys solution (0.56 mg/ml) was added next.
- 10 ⁇ l of a DIDA solution (0.84 mg/ml) was then added to the mixture and vortexed.
