Problems solved by technology

However, passive loading limits the amount of drug that can be entrapped into liposomes
[0006] There is still an unmet need for sustained-release formulations with high drug-to-lipid ratio and high drug entrapment efficiency to reduce the dosing frequency of immunomodulators and improve therapeutic efficacy

example 1

[0048] Example 1: Preparation of fingolimod liposome formulation

[0049] Empty liposomes were prepared by the lipid film hydration-extrusion method. HSPC, cholesterol and DSPE-PEG2000 (59.5 / 39.6 / 0.9 mole percent) were dissolved in chloroform, and the organic solvent was removed under vacuum by a rotary evaporator to form a thin lipid film. The dried lipid film was hydrated with 300 mM ammonium sulfate at 60° C. for 30 minutes to form empty liposomes with an aqueous core embedded with ammonium sulfate. After six freeze-thaw cycles between liquid nitrogen and 60°C water, the empty liposomes were then squeezed 10 times through a polycarbonate filter with a pore size of 0.2 μm. Unentrapped ammonium sulfate was removed by dialysis against 9.4% sucrose solution.

[0050] A reaction mixture containing 7.8 mg / mL fingolimod hydrochloride (MedChem Express), empty liposomes with a lipid concentration of 20.7 mM, and 50 mM histidine buffer (pH 7) was reacted at 60° C. for 15 minute. ...

[0053] Embodiment 2: the preparation of Ozamod liposome formula

[0054]Empty liposomes were prepared by the lipid film hydration-extrusion method. HSPC, cholesterol and DPPG (59.5 / 39.6 / 0.9 mole percent) were dissolved in chloroform, and the organic solvent was removed under vacuum by a rotary evaporator to form a thin lipid film. The dried lipid film was hydrated with 300 mM ammonium sulfate at 60° C. for 30 minutes to form empty liposomes with an aqueous core embedded with ammonium sulfate. After six freeze-thaw cycles between liquid nitrogen and 60°C water, the empty liposomes were then squeezed 10 times through a polycarbonate filter with a pore size of 0.2 μm. Unentrapped ammonium sulfate was removed by dialysis against 9.4% sucrose solution.

[0055] A reaction mixture containing 7.2 mg / mL Ozamod (DC Chemicals), empty liposomes with a lipid concentration of 20.6 mM, and 50 mM histidine buffer (pH 6.5) was reacted at 60° C. for 15 minutes. by Sephadex TM G-50 fine ge...

[0058] Example 3: Effects of Different Capture Agents on Drug Loading Profiles

[0059] Liposome formulations with the following capture agents were prepared according to Example 1: (1) 75 mM sucrose octasulfate triethylammonium, (2) 300 mM ammonium sulfate, (3) 200 mM ammonium phosphate, and (4) 7.0 mM Dextran Sulfate. Table 1 shows the effect of different capture agents on the drug loading profile.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising at least one liposome and a therapeutic agent for treating an auto-immune disease with a high therapeutic agent to lipid ratio and a high encapsulation efficiency. The pharmaceutical composition improves the pharmacokinetic profile and sustains the release of the therapeutic agent. Also provided is the method for treating an auto-immune disease using the pharmaceutical composition disclosed herein.

Description

[0001] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Patent Application No. 62 / 746,810, filed October 17, 2018, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0002] The present invention is directed to a sustained-release pharmaceutical composition with high drug to lipid ratio and high encapsulation efficiency, comprising an immunomodulator and using at least one capture agent. The high drug-to-lipid ratio, high embedding efficiency and sustained release profile of the pharmaceutical composition reduce the frequency of administration, increase patient compliance and improve therapeutic outcome. Background technique [0003] Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptor agonists, such as fingolimod, have been approved for the treatment of autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis (multiplesclerosis), including multiple In relapsing forms of multiplesclerosis (RMS), S1P receptor agonists are administered orally and the main concern is that a...
