Embodiment 1

[0170] In-site vancomycin pharmacodynamics test. A single-dose cohort (cohort) pharmacodynamic study was conducted under FDA IND #117494, the first FDA IND approved for intrasite vancomycin. This dose cohort involved the administration of low doses of intrasite lyophilized vancomycin to complex instrumented spinal surgery wounds in adult subjects. Vancomycin and endotoxin levels were measured in the bloodstream and in wound effusion fluid (through wound drains) at specific time points after surgery. Endotoxin levels in the blood stream and effusion fluid were also measured at the same time points after surgery. During administration of IS vancomycin, certified N-90 respirators were required to be worn by all present to prevent inhalation of aerosolized vancomycin powder, a known safety risk for pulmonary fibrosis.

Embodiment 2

[0186] Endotoxin is removed from vancomycin and / or other IS drugs by ultrapurification. To render a drug suitable for IS administration, various purification methods can be used alone or in series to achieve the desired reduction in endotoxin levels of approximately 10-fold over those found in current vancomycin formulations. Various embodiments of these methods are described herein. To achieve industrial-scale production of endotoxin-depleted vancomycin, vancomycin-rifaximin, or any other IS drug that requires this process, a series of cost-effective and scalable experiments were performed to determine which process or Process combinations are best suited for industrial production / commercial scale production of specific drug products. This scale-up process uses sub-batch confirmatory batch testing to determine endotoxin levels and other impurities based on the methods disclosed herein. Commercial-scale production methods for endotoxin-removed vancomycin, vancomycin-rifaximi...

Embodiment 3

[0188] Testing for endotoxin levels in ultrapure pharmaceuticals. A number of methods exist for the quantitative measurement of endotoxin presence. The most commonly used is the Quantitative Limulus Amebocyte Lysate (qLAL) test, but newer and potentially more accurate and precise methods exist, including gas chromatography / mass spectrometry (GC / MS), high-pressure liquid chromatography / tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC / MS / MS) and human endothelial cell E-selectin binding assay. We compared the accuracy, precision and assay reliability of these methods against standard positive and negative controls on (purified) drug samples to detect endotoxin concentrations down to 0.01 EU / mL. A test method capable of performing accurate and precise down to 0.01EU / mL (indicating the most cost-effectiveness) was used to test our drug samples for endotoxin levels in the future.

Abstract

A new method of targeted intrasite drug administration to wounds offers advantages in treatment efficacy and safety over traditional routes of administration. A novel method of dosing intrasite medications based on wound surface area provides the parameters for safe and effective dosing, a necessary advance for any FDA approval. Large intrasite doses increase risk of toxicity from impurities allowed in drugs given by other routes. Pharmacodynamic parameters make certain drugs advantageous as intrasite agents, including slow trans-wound surface diffusion, protein binding, and limited local tissue toxicity. Vancomycin is a prototypical drug with these features and is therefore very useful as an intrasite medication. Other drugs, including but not limited to rifaximin, possess similar pharmacodynamics and may be useful intrasite pharmaceuticals, delivered alone or in combination with other drugs, carriers, or materials. All of these attributes are advantages over traditional administration methods.
