Definitions
- the invention relates in general to pharmaceutical formulations and methods, and in more specific embodiments to emulsified formulations of ansamycins, e.g., 17-AAG. BACKGROUND
- 17-allylamino-geldanamycin (17-AAG) is a synthetic analog of geldanamycin
- GDM GDM
- SBP90s heat shock protein 90s
- HSP90s are ubiquitous chaperone proteins that are involved in folding, activation and assembly of a wide range of proteins, including key proteins involved in signal transduction, cell cycle control and transcriptional regulation.
- HSP90 chaperone proteins are associated with important signaling proteins, such as steroid hormone receptors and protein kinases, including, e.g., Raf-1, EGFR, v-Src family kinases, Cdk4, and ErbB-2 ( Buchner J., 1999, TIBS, 24:136-141; Stepanova, L.
- Hsp70 e.g., Hsp70, p60/Hop/Stil, Hip, Bagl, HSP40/Hdj2/Hsj l, immunophilins, p23, and p50
- HSP90 may assist HSP90 in its function (see, e.g., Caplan, A., , Trends in Cell Biol, 9: 262-68 (1999).
- Ansamycin antibiotics e.g., herbimycin A (HA), geldanamycin (GM), and 17-AAG are thought to exert their anticancerous effects by tight binding of the N-terminus ATP- binding pocket of HSP90 (Stebbins, C. et al, 1997, Cell, 89:239-250). This pocket is highly conserved and has weak homology to the ATP-binding site of DNA gyrase (Stebbins, C. et al, supra; Grenert, J.P. et al, 1997, J. Biol Chem., 272:23843-50).
- ATP and ADP have both been shown to bind this pocket with low affinity and to have weak ATPase activity (Proromou, C. et al, 1997, Cell, 90: 65-75; Panaretou, B. et al, 1998, EMBO J., 17: 4829- 36).
- occupancy of this N-terminal pocket by ansamycins and other HSP90 inhibitors alters HSP90 function and inhibits protein folding.
- ansamycins and other HSP90 inhibitors have been shown to prevent binding of protein substrates to HSP90 (Scheibel, T., H. et al, 1999, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci.
- the substrates are degraded by a ubiquitin-dependent process in the proteasome (Schneider, C, L., supra; Sepp- Lorenzino, L., et al, 1995, J. Biol Chem., 270:16580-16587; Whitesell, L. et al, 1994, Proc. Natl Acad. Sci. USA, 91: 8324-8328).
- This substrate destabilization occurs in tumor and non-transformed cells alike and has been shown to be especially effective on a subset of signaling regulators, e.g., Raf (Schulte, T. W. et al, 1997, Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun.
- EGF receptor EGFR
- Her2/Neu Her2/Neu
- HSP90 inhibitors have also been implicated in a wide variety of other utilities, including use as anti-inflammation agents, anti-infectious disease agents, agents for treating autoimmunity, agents for treating stroke, ischemia, cardiac disorders and agents useful in promoting nerve regeneration (See, e.g., Rosen et al., WO 02/09696 (PCT/USOl/23640); Degranco et al., WO 99/51223 (PCT/US99/07242); Gold, U.S. Patent 6,210,974 Bl; DeFranco et al., US Patent 6,174,875).

- a “physiologically acceptable carrier” refers to a carrier or diluent that does not cause significant irritation to an organism and does not abrogate the biological activity and properties of the administered compound.
- An “excipient” refers to a substance added to a pharmacological composition to further facilitate administration of a compound. Examples of excipients include but are not limited to calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate, various sugars and types of starch, cellulose and cellulose derivatives, gelatin, vegetable oils and polyethylene glycols. These can also be physiologically acceptable carriers, as described above, e.g., sucrose. Further falling within the definition of excipient are bulking agents.
- sucrose is thought to form an amorphous glass upon freezing and subsequent lyophilization, allowing for potential stability enhancement of the formulation by forming a dispersion of the oil droplets containing the active ingredient in a rigid glass. Stability may also be enhanced by virtue of the sugar acting as a replacement for the water lost upon lyophilization. The sugar molecules, rather than the water molecules, become bonded to the interfacial phospholipid through hydrogen bonds.
- Lyophilization is the removal or substantial removal of liquid from a sample, e.g., by sublimation, and as described in the section above entitled “solvent removal.” .
- Lipids can be detected in the region of 203-205 nm. Unsaturated fatty acids exhibit high absorbance while the saturated fatty acids exhibit lower absorbance in the 200 nm wavelength region of the UV spectrum.
- Vemuri and Rhodes, supra described the separation of egg yolk PC and PG on Licrosorb Diol and Licrosorb SI -60. The separations used a mobile phase of acetonitrile- methanol with 1% hexane- water (74:16:10 v/v/v). In 8 minutes, separation of PG from PC was observed. Retention times were approximately 1.1 and 3.2 min, respectively.
- Emulsion droplet size distribution can be determined, e.g., using a particle size distribution analyzer such as the CAPA-500 made by Horiba Limited (Am Arbor, MI, USA), a Coulter counter (Beckman Coulter Inc., Brea, CA, USA), or a Zetasizer (Malvern Instruments, Southborough, MA, USA). Stability Determination Using HPLC
- the chemical stability of the therapeutically active ingredient can be assessed by HPLC after extraction of the emulsion.
- Specific assay procedures can be developed that allow for the separation of the therapeutically active ansamycin from its degradation products.
- the extent of degradation can be assessed either from the decrease in signal in the HPLC peak associated with the therapeutically active ansamycins and/or by the increase in signal in the HPLC peak(s) associated with degradation products.
- Ansamycins, relative to other components of the emulsion components are easily and quite specifically detected at their absorbance maximum of 345 nm.
- compositions may be manufactured utilizing conventional mixing, dissolving, granulating, dragee-making, levigating, emulsifying, encapsulating, entrapping or lyophilizing processes.
- Table illustrates a 4000 gm batch preparation of 17-AAG made according to one embodiment of the invention.
- the skilled artisan will recognize that the procedure can be scaled up or down, that variations can be made with respect to the amounts of individual components, etc., and that additional components not listed may also be added.
- the emulsion pH is adjusted to 6.0 +/- 0.2 with 0.2N NaOH.
- Tlie primary emulsion is then passed through a Model 110S microfluidizer (Microfluidics Inc., Newton, MA, USA) operating at static pressure of about 110 psi (operating pressure of 60-95 psi) with a 75- micron emulsion interaction chamber (F20Y) for 6-8 passages until the average droplet size is ⁇ 190 nm.
- LLS may be used following the individual passages to evaluate progress.
- the solution may further be checked for the presence of crystals using polarized light under an optical microscope.
- the emulsion is then passed across a 0.45 micron Gelman mini capsule filter (Pall Corp., East Hills, NY, USA), and then across a sterile 0.2 micron Sartorius Sartobran P capsule filter (500 cm 2 ) (Sartorius AG, Goettingen, Germany). Pressure up to 60 PSI is used to maintain a smooth and continuous flow. Filtrate is collected in one or more polypropylene bottles and immediately placed in a -20°C freezer. A 1-ml aliquot may be set aside for testing using laser light scattering (LLS) and/or high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).
- LLC laser light scattering
- HPLC high performance liquid chromatography
- 17-AAG can be brought into solution in the oil phase without ethanol being present by heating a preformed emulsifying agent in triglyceride solution, e.g., Phospholipon in Miglyol® 812, preferably to 65° C or more, adding to this the drug, e.g., 17- AAG, and mixing, e.g., by stirring and/or sonication. It has also been discovered that a lower melting point form of 17-AAG from example 2 prepared through crystallization of 17-AAG from isopropanol rather than ethanol more readily can be dissolved into the Phospholipon in Miglyol solution at room temperature.
- a preformed emulsifying agent in triglyceride solution e.g., Phospholipon in Miglyol® 812
- Emulsification can be accomplished by mechanical mixing, by treating with ultrasonic irradiation, and finally by passage through a microfluidizer, although it will be understood that the terms "emulsify” and “emulsification” should not be limited to such processing events and that other emulsification techniques exist and can be used alternatively or in tandem with one or more of the preceding techniques.
- a variation of the processes described above includes the addition of long chain triglycerides, e.g., in the form of soya oil.
- a source of long chain triglycerides (soya oil) is mixed with Miglyol 812N (a source of medium chain triglycerides) and an emulsifying agent (Phospholipon 90G (PL90G)), in the following respective w/w proportions: 16.7%:50.0%:33.3%. This is homogenized until the PL90G is completely dissolved (-20,000 rpm for about 20 minutes).
- This "primary" emulsion is then microfluidized by passage through an F12Y interaction chamber and filter sterilized using a 0.2 ⁇ m polyethersulfone (PES) filter membrane.
- PES polyethersulfone
- Lyophilization of the emulsions from Examples 5 and 6 may be accomplished according to a scheme similar to that in the following Table.
- the stability profile for the lyophilized 17-AAG emulsion was as follows when stored at 2-8 °C, and following reconstitution:
- Example 8 Long Chain Triglycerides Inhibit Somnolence Miglyol 812N, when administered rapidly, can cause sedation due to the metabolic release of octanoate.
- sedation was observed at infusion rates greater than 1.1 gm total lipid/Kg/hr. See Figure 2. Sedation was also noted in dogs given intravenous iinfusions of the 17-AAG emulsion formulation at rates greater than 1.13 gm total lipid/kg/hr.
- soybean oil was added as described above to compete with the metabolism of Miglyol 812N in- vivo to reduce octanoate fatty acid produced during intravenous infusions.
- soybean oil/Miglyol 812N CF237 emulsions no sedation was observed acutely in rats at infusion rates of up to about 40 gm total lipid/kg/hr.
- the combination of soybean oil with Miglyol 812N greatly improves tolerability of the CF237 emulsion formulation with regard to sedation.
- no sedation was observed in monkeys administered six doses of the CF237 emulsion formulation as an intravenous infusion of 12 mL formulation/kg/hr, and no vein irritation was observed.
- Ansmaycins Other Than 17-AAG Essentially any ansamycin can be substituted for 17-AAG and formulated as described in the above examples. Various such ansamycins and their preparation are detailed in PCT/US03/04283. The preparation of two of these are described below.
- Compound 237 A dimer. 3,3'-diamino-dipropylamine (1.32g, 9.1mmol) was added dropwise to a solution of Geldanamycin (lOg, 17.83mmol) in DMSO (200ml) in a flame- dried flask under N 2 and stirred at room temperature. The reaction mixture was diluted with water after 12 hours. A precipitate was formed and filtered to give the crude product. The crude product was chromatographed by silica chromatography (5% CH 3 0H/CH 2 C1 2 ) to afford the desired dimer as a pu ⁇ le solid.
- the corresponding HC1 salt was prepared by the following method: an HC1 solution in EtOH (5 ml, 0.123N) was added to a solution of compound #237 (1 gm as prepared above) in THF (15 ml) and EtOH (50 ml) at room temperature. The reaction mixture was stirred for
