Embodiment 1

[0431] Example 1 - Preparation and Characterization of Rapamycin-Containing Solutions

[0432] 1.256% rapamycin (percentage of total weight) was dissolved in 9.676% ethanol (percentage of total weight). A 15% aqueous solution of F127 (Lutrol) in sterile water was slowly added with constant stirring. The final concentration was about 78.57% sterile water (percentage of total weight) and about 10.50% F127 (Lutrol) (percentage of total weight). This solution is listed in Table 1 as Formulation #32. The solution was kept at 2°C until use.

Embodiment 2

[0433] Example 2 - Subconjunctival injection of a solution containing rapamycin

[0434] 50 µl of the solution described in Example 1 was injected between the sclera and conjunctiva of New Zealand white rabbits.

[0435] figure 2 The log scale mean concentrations of rapamycin present in the vitreous (ng / ml), retinachoroid (ng / mg) and sclera (ng / mg) 20, 40, 67 and 90 days after injection are depicted.

[0436] Analysis was performed by liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LCMS) using an internal standard.

[0437] At each time point, the mean concentration of rapamycin was calculated by summing the obtained rapamycin concentrations per eye for each rabbit and dividing the number of eyes analyzed by the total amount. In this experiment, each time point represents the average of two individual eyes of two rabbits (four eyes at the time point) or the average of both eyes of one rabbit (two eyes at the time point).

[0438] Whole vitreous bodies were homogenized and analyze...

Embodiment 3

[0444] Example 3 - Preparation and Characterization of Rapamycin-Containing Solutions

[0445] 5.233% rapamycin (% of total formulation weight after addition of all ingredients) was dissolved in 0.4177g EtOH; the amount of EtOH was reduced to 0.1296g (6.344%, w / w) by forced evaporation (heating). Add PEG400 with constant stirring. The final concentrations as total weight percentages are about: rapamycin 5.233%, ethanol 6.344% and PEG4008 8.424%. On contact with the vitreous, the formulation forms non-dispersed masses relative to the surrounding medium. This solution is listed in Table 1 as Formulation #34.
