Description

Lipid nanoparticles and lipid nanoparticle compositions Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of biotechnology, and specifically relates to a lipid nanoparticle and a lipid nanoparticle composition. Background Art

[0002] The effective targeted delivery of bioactive substances such as small molecule drugs, proteins and nucleic acids is an ongoing medical challenge. The key to the success of gene therapy lies in whether the therapeutic drugs can be safely and effectively delivered into the target cells through the vector in vivo. Due to the relative instability of nucleic acids and the low cell permeability of such substances, the delivery of nucleic acids to cells becomes difficult. Therefore, it is necessary to develop methods and compositions to promote the delivery of therapeutic and / or preventive drugs such as nucleic acids to cells. Gene therapy vectors are divided into viral vectors and non-viral vectors. Although viral vectors are efficient delivery systems to achieve target gene transfection and therapeutic purposes, viral vectors contain immunogenic viral proteins, have limited target gene loading capacity and are expensive. As a result, lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) as non-viral vectors have received widespread attention due to their good in vitro stability, degradability in vivo, safety and reliability, and are widely used in gene therapy research for congenital and acquired genetic defects.

[0003] Lipid-containing nanoparticles, or lipid nanoparticles, liposomes, and lipid complexes have been demonstrated to be effective delivery vehicles for bioactive substances such as small molecule drugs, proteins, and nucleic acids into and / or within cells. LNPs, small vesicles formed from one or more lipid components, can effectively encapsulate and deliver a variety of nucleic acid molecules, from DNA and RNA to chromosomes and even cells. Their defined construction scheme and ease of modification with targeting ligands facilitate large-scale production. Summary of the Invention

[0354] In some embodiments of the present application, a divalent metal cation solution of a certain concentration is prepared with an acidic buffer, which is then used to dilute the mRNA to obtain an mRNA working solution. The final mRNA concentration in the mRNA working solution is 100-300 μg / ml, preferably 200 μg / ml, and the final concentration of the divalent metal cation solution is 0.8-20 mM.

[0364] In a specific embodiment, the therapeutic and / or prophylactic agent is mRNA, and the N / P ratio of the ionizable lipid to the mRNA in the lipid nanoparticles is 3.5-5.5, for example, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8, 3.9, 4, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 4.7, 4.8, 4.9, 5, 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5.

[0365] The encapsulation efficiency of a therapeutic and / or prophylactic agent describes the amount of therapeutic and / or prophylactic agent that is encapsulated or otherwise associated with the nanoparticle composition after preparation relative to the initial amount provided. The higher the encapsulation efficiency, the better (e.g., close to 100%). The encapsulation efficiency can be measured, for example, by comparing the amount of therapeutic and / or prophylactic agent in a solution containing the nanoparticle composition before and after decomposition of the nanoparticle composition with one or more organic solvents or detergents. Fluorescence can be used to measure the amount of free therapeutic and / or prophylactic (e.g., RNA) in the solution. For the nanoparticle compositions described herein, the encapsulation efficiency of the therapeutic and / or prophylactic agent can be at least 50%, e.g., 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99% or 100%. In some embodiments, the encapsulation efficiency can be at least 80%. In certain embodiments, the encapsulation efficiency can be at least 90%.

[0366] The lipid nanoparticles can be characterized by a variety of methods. For example, a microscope (e.g., a transmission electron microscope or a scanning electron microscope) can be used to examine the morphology and size distribution of the nanoparticles. Dynamic light scattering or potentiometric methods (e.g., potentiometric titration) can be used to measure zeta potential. Dynamic light scattering can also be used to determine particle size.

[0367] In a specific embodiment, the average particle size of the lipid nanoparticles is 50 nm-150 nm.

[0368] In a specific embodiment, the average particle size of the lipid nanoparticles is 50 nm-100 nm.

[0369] In a specific embodiment, the average particle size of the lipid nanoparticles is 50 nm-80 nm.

[0370] In a specific embodiment, the average particle size of the lipid nanoparticles is 50 nm-60 nm.

[0371] The lipid nanoparticles can be relatively uniform. A polydispersity index can be used to indicate the uniformity of the nanoparticles. A small (e.g., less than 0.3) polydispersity index generally indicates a narrow particle size distribution.

[0372] In a specific embodiment, the polydispersity index of the lipid nanoparticles is 0.001-0.16, for example, 0.001, 0.005, 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04, 0.05, 0.06, 0.07, 0.08, 0.09, 0.10, 0.11, 0.12, 0.13, 0.14, 0.15, or 0.16.

[0373] The present application also provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients or adjuvants, such as those described herein, except that any conventional excipients or adjuvants may be incompatible with one or more components of the nanoparticles. If the excipient or adjuvant is incompatible with a component of the nanoparticle, its combination with that component may result in any undesirable biological or other deleterious effects.

[0374] Depending on the one or more lipid nanoparticles in the pharmaceutical composition of the present application, the relative amount of one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients and / or auxiliary ingredients will vary, depending on the identity, size and / or disease condition of the subject being treated, and further depending on the route of administration of the composition. For example, the pharmaceutical composition may contain 0.1% to 100% (wt / wt) of one or more lipid nanoparticles.

[0375] The lipid nanoparticles and / or pharmaceutical compositions can be administered to any patient or subject, including those patients or subjects who may benefit from the therapeutic effect provided by delivering a treatment and / or preventive agent to one or more specific cells, tissues, organs, or their systems or tissues (e.g., renal system). Although the description of the lipid nanoparticles and pharmaceutical compositions provided herein is primarily directed to being suitable for administration to humans, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that such lipid nanoparticles and pharmaceutical compositions are typically suitable for administration to any other mammal. In order to make lipid nanoparticles and pharmaceutical compositions suitable for administration to various animals, it is well known that lipid nanoparticles and pharmaceutical compositions suitable for human administration are modified, and conventionally skilled veterinary pharmacologists can design and / or carry out such modifications, including but not limited to humans, other primates, and other artificial animals, including commercially relevant mammals such as cattle, pigs, hoses, sheep, cats, dogs, mice, and / or rats, only through common, if any, experimental design.

[0376] The pharmaceutical compositions of the present application can be prepared by any method known in the art of pharmacology or developed in the future. Generally, such preparation methods include combining the active ingredient with an excipient and / or one or more other auxiliary ingredients, and then, if necessary or desired, dividing, shaping and / or packaging the product into the desired single or multiple dose units.

[0377] The pharmaceutical compositions of the present application can be prepared, packaged, and / or sold in batches of single unit doses and / or multiple single unit doses. As used herein, a "unit dose" is a precise amount of a pharmaceutical composition containing a predetermined amount of an active ingredient (e.g., a nanoparticle composition). The amount of the active ingredient is generally equal to the dose of the active ingredient to be administered to a subject and / or a convenient portion of the dose, such as half or one-third of the dose.

[0378] Pharmaceutical compositions can be prepared in various forms suitable for a variety of routes and methods of administration. For example, pharmaceutical compositions can be prepared in liquid dosage forms (e.g., emulsions, microemulsions, nanoemulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups, and medicaments), injectable forms, solid dosage forms (e.g., capsules, tablets, tablets, etc.), liquids, powders, and granules), dosage forms for topical and / or transdermal administration (e.g., ointments, creams, lotions, gels, powders, solutions, sprays, inhalants, and patches), suspensions, powders, and other forms. Liquid dosage forms for oral and parenteral administration include, but are not limited to, pharmaceutically acceptable emulsions, microemulsions, nanoemulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups, and / or medicaments.

[0379] In addition to the active ingredient, the liquid dosage form can include inert diluents commonly used in the art, such as water or other solvents, solubilizing agents and emulsifiers, such as ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, ethyl carbonate, ethyl acetate, benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate, propylene glycol, 1,3-butylene glycol, dimethylformamide, oil (particularly cottonseed oil, peanut oil, corn oil, germ oil, olive oil, castor oil and sesame oil), glycerol, tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol, polyethylene glycol and sorbitan fatty acid esters and mixtures thereof. In addition to the inert diluent, oral compositions can also include other therapeutic and / or prophylactic agents, other agents, such as wetting agents, emulsifying agents and suspending agents, sweeteners, flavorings and / or spices. In certain embodiments for parenteral administration, the composition is mixed with a solubilizing agent (e.g., alcohol, oil, modified oil, glycol, polysorbate, cyclodextrin, polymer and / or a combination thereof).

[0380] Injectable preparations, such as sterile injectable aqueous or oily suspensions, can be prepared using suitable dispersants, wetting agents and / or suspending agents according to known techniques. Sterile injectable preparations can be sterile injectable solutions, suspensions and / or emulsions in nontoxic parenteral acceptable diluents and / or solvents, such as solutions in 1,3-butanediol. Acceptable vehicles and solvents that can be used include water. Sterile fixed oils are generally used as solvents or suspending media. For this purpose, any mild fixed oil can be used, including synthetic monoglycerides or diglycerides. Fatty acids such as oleic acid can be used in the preparation of injections.

[0381] The injectable formulations can be sterilized by, for example, filtration through a bacteria-retaining filter and / or by incorporating sterilizing agents in the form of sterile solid compositions prior to dissolution or dispersion in sterile water or other sterile injectable medium.

[0382] In order to prolong the effect of the active ingredient, it is generally desired to slow down the absorption of the active ingredient from subcutaneous or intramuscular injection. This can be achieved by using a liquid suspension of a crystalline or amorphous substance with poor water solubility. The absorption rate of the drug then depends on its dissolution rate, which in turn depends on the crystal size and crystalline form. Alternatively, delayed absorption of the drug form for parenteral administration can be achieved by dissolving or suspending the drug in an oil carrier. The injectable drug depot form is made by forming a microcapsule matrix of the drug in a biodegradable polymer (such as polylactic acid-polyethylene glycol). Depending on the ratio of the drug to the polymer and the properties of the specific polymer used, the drug release rate can be controlled. Examples of other biodegradable polymers include poly (orthoesters) and poly (anhydrides). Reserve injection preparations are prepared by embedding the drug in liposomes or microemulsions compatible with body tissues.

[0383] Compositions for rectal or vaginal administration are typically suppositories which can be prepared by mixing the composition with a suitable non-irritating excipient such as cocoa butter, polyethylene glycol or a suppository wax which is solid at ambient temperature but liquid at body temperature and therefore melts in the rectum or vaginal cavity to release the active ingredient.

[0384] Solid dosage forms for oral administration include capsules, tablets, pills, films, powders and granules. In such solid dosage forms, the active ingredient is mixed with at least one inert pharmaceutically acceptable excipient such as sodium citrate or dicalcium phosphate and / or fillers or extenders (e.g., starch, lactose, sucrose, glucose, mannitol and silicic acid), binders (e.g., carboxymethylcellulose, alginates, gelatin, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, sucrose and gum arabic), humectants (e.g., glycerol), disintegrants (e.g., agar, calcium carbonate, potato or tapioca starch, alginic acid, certain silicates and sodium carbonate), solubilizers (e.g., paraffin), absorption accelerators (e.g., quaternary ammonium compounds), wetting agents (e.g., cetyl alcohol and glyceryl monostearate), absorbents (e.g., kaolin and bentonite, silicates) and lubricants (e.g., talc, calcium stearate, magnesium stearate, solid polyethylene glycol, sodium lauryl sulfate) and mixtures thereof. In the case of capsules, tablets and pills, the dosage form may comprise buffering agents.

[0385] Solid compositions of similar types can be used as fillers in soft and hard-filled gelatin capsules using excipients such as lactose or lactose and high molecular weight polyethylene glycols. Solid dosage forms of tablets, dragees, capsules, pills and granules can be prepared with coatings and shells such as enteric coatings and other coatings well known in the pharmaceutical formulation art. They may optionally contain opacifiers and may have a composition that releases the active ingredient only, or preferably, in a certain part of the intestinal tract, optionally in a delayed manner. Examples of embedding compositions that can be used include polymeric substances and waxes. Solid compositions of similar types can be used as fillers in soft and hard-filled gelatin capsules using excipients such as lactose or lactose and high molecular weight polyethylene glycols.

[0386] The dosage form for the topical and / or transdermal administration of compositions can include ointment, paste, cream, lotion, gel, powder, solution, spray, inhalant and / or patch.Usually, active component is aseptically mixed with pharmaceutically acceptable excipient and / or any preservative and / or buffer that may be needed.In addition, the application has considered the use of transdermal patch, which generally has the additional advantage of providing the controlled delivery of compound to health.Such dosage form can be prepared, for example, by dissolving the compound and / or being distributed in a suitable medium.Alternatively or additionally, speed can be provided rate control membrane and / or by being dispersed in a polymer matrix and / or gel by any one of the following control.

[0387] Formulations suitable for topical administration include, but are not limited to, liquid and / or semi-liquid formulations such as liniments, lotions, oil-in-water and / or water-in-oil emulsions such as creams, ointments and / or pastes and / or solutions and / or suspensions, although the concentration of the active ingredient may be as high as the solubility limit of the active ingredient in the solvent. Formulations for topical administration may further comprise one or more of the other ingredients described herein.

[0388] Pharmaceutical compositions can be prepared, packaged and / or sold in formulations suitable for pulmonary administration via the oral cavity. Such formulations can comprise dry particles of the active ingredient. Such compositions are conveniently in dry powder form for administration using a device comprising a dry powder reservoir and / or using a self-propelled solvent / powder dispensing container (e.g., a device comprising the active ingredient dissolved and / or suspended in a low-boiling-point propellant in a sealed container). Powder compositions can comprise a solid fine powder diluent, such as sugar, and are conveniently provided in unit dose form.

[0389] Low-boiling-point propellants typically include liquid propellants having a boiling point below 65°F at atmospheric pressure. Typically, the propellant may comprise 50% to 99.9% (wt / wt) of the composition, while the active ingredient may comprise 0.1% to 20% (wt / wt) of the composition. The propellant may further comprise other ingredients, such as liquid nonionic and / or solid anionic surfactants and / or solid diluents (whose particle size may be of the same order of magnitude as the particles comprising the active ingredient).

[0390] Pharmaceutical compositions formulated for pulmonary delivery can provide the active ingredient in the form of droplets of solution and / or suspension. Such preparations can be prepared, packaged and / or sold as aqueous and / or diluted alcohol solutions and / or suspensions, optionally sterile, containing the active ingredient, and can be conveniently administered using any atomization and / or atomizing device. Such preparations may further comprise one or more other ingredients, including but not limited to flavorings such as saccharin sodium, volatile oils, buffers, surfactants and / or preservatives such as methyl hydroxybenzoate. The average diameter of the droplets provided by this route of administration can be in the range of 1 nm to 200 nm.

[0391] The formulations described herein for pulmonary delivery can be used to deliver pharmaceutical compositions intranasally. Another formulation suitable for intranasal administration is a coarse powder comprising the active ingredient and having an average particle size of 0.2 μm to 500 μm. Such a formulation is administered in the manner of snuff, i.e., by rapid inhalation through the nasal passages from a powder container held near the nose.

[0392] Preparations suitable for nasal administration can, for example, contain 0.1% (wt / wt) to 100% (wt / wt) of active ingredients, and can contain one or more other active ingredients as described herein. Pharmaceutical compositions can be prepared, packaged and / or sold in preparations suitable for buccal administration. Such preparations can, for example, be in the form of tablets and / or lozenges prepared using conventional methods, and can, for example, be 0.1% to 20% (wt / wt) of active ingredients, the remainder comprising an orally soluble and / or degradable composition, and optionally, one or more other ingredients as described herein. Alternatively, preparations suitable for oral administration can include a powder and / or atomized and / or sprayed solution and / or suspension containing the active ingredient. Such powdered, aerosolized and / or aerosolized preparations can have an average particle and / or droplet size in the range of 0.1nm to 200nm when dispersed, and can further include one or more other ingredients as described herein.

[0393] Pharmaceutical compositions can be prepared, packaged and / or sold in the form of formulations suitable for ophthalmic administration. Such formulations can, for example, be in the form of drops, including, for example, 0.1 / 1.0% (wt / wt) solutions and / or suspensions of the active ingredient in aqueous or oily liquid excipients. Such drops may further comprise a buffer, salts and / or one or more of any other additive ingredients described herein. Other formulations useful for ophthalmic administration include those comprising the active ingredient in microcrystalline form and / or liposomal formulations. Ear drops and / or eye drops are considered within the scope of the present disclosure as methods for producing polypeptides in cells.

[0394] The present application further provides a method for producing a target polypeptide in a mammalian cell. The method for producing the polypeptide comprises contacting the cell with a lipid nanoparticle containing an mRNA encoding the target polypeptide. After contacting the cell with the lipid nanoparticle, the mRNA can be taken up and translated in the cell to produce the target polypeptide.

[0395] Typically, the step of contacting mammalian cells with nanoparticles comprising mRNA encoding a polypeptide of interest can be performed in vivo, ex vivo, in culture, or in vitro. The amount of the nanoparticles contacted with the cells and / or the amount of the mRNA therein can depend on the type of cells or tissues being contacted, the mode of administration, the physicochemical properties of the nanoparticle compositions, and the mRNA (e.g., size, charge, and chemical composition), as well as other factors. Typically, an effective amount of nanoparticles will allow for efficient production of polypeptides in cells. Efficiency metrics may include polypeptide translation (represented by polypeptide expression), mRNA degradation levels, and immune response indicators.

[0396] The step of contacting the nanoparticles comprising the mRNA with the cells may involve or cause transfection. The phospholipids contained in the lipid component of the nanoparticles can, for example, promote transfection and / or increase transfection efficiency by interacting and / or fusing with the cells or intracellular membranes. Transfection can allow translation of the mRNA within the cell.

[0397] In certain embodiments, the mRNA included in the nanoparticle can encode a recombinant polypeptide that can replace one or more polypeptides that may be substantially absent in the cell in contact with the nanoparticle. Due to genetic mutations in the coding gene or its regulatory pathway, one or more substantially absent polypeptides may be lacking. Alternatively, the recombinant polypeptide produced by mRNA translation can antagonize the activity of endogenous proteins present in the cell, on the cell surface, or secreted from the cell. Antagonistic recombinant polypeptides may be ideal to antagonize the harmful effects caused by the activity of endogenous proteins, such as the positioning caused by activity changes or mutations. In another alternative, the recombinant polypeptide produced by mRNA translation can indirectly or directly antagonize the activity of biological parts present in the cell, on the cell surface, or secreted from the cell. The biological parts of antagonism can include but are not limited to lipids (such as cholesterol), lipoproteins (such as low-density lipoproteins), nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and small molecule toxins. The recombinant polypeptide produced by mRNA translation can be engineered to be located in the cell, such as in a specific compartment such as the nucleus, or can be engineered to be secreted from the cell or transported to the plasma membrane of the cell.

[0398] In some embodiments, contacting cells with nanoparticles comprising mRNA can reduce the innate immune response of cells to exogenous nucleic acids. Cells can be contacted with a first nanoparticle composition comprising a first exogenous mRNA of a first amount, wherein the first exogenous mRNA comprises a translatable region, and the level of the innate immune response of the cells to the first exogenous mRNA can be determined. Subsequently, cells can be contacted with a second composition comprising a second exogenous mRNA of a second amount, wherein the second amount is a smaller amount of the first exogenous mRNA than the first amount. Alternatively, the second composition can comprise a second exogenous mRNA of a first amount that is different from the first exogenous mRNA. The step of contacting cells with the first and second compositions can be repeated one or more times. In addition, the efficiency of polypeptide production (e.g., translation) in the cell can be optionally determined, and cells can be repeatedly contacted with the first and / or second compositions until the target protein production efficiency is reached.

[0399] The present application further provides a method for treating a disease or condition in a mammal, the method comprising administering to a mammal a therapeutically effective amount of any one of the lipid nanoparticles or pharmaceutical compositions of the present application, in particular, the lipid nanoparticles or pharmaceutical compositions can be used to treat diseases, conditions or illnesses characterized by missing or abnormal protein or polypeptide activity. For example, lipid nanoparticles or pharmaceutical compositions comprising mRNA encoding a missing or abnormal polypeptide can be administered or delivered to a cell. Subsequent translation of the mRNA can produce a polypeptide, thereby reducing or eliminating problems caused by the lack of or abnormal activity caused by the polypeptide. Because translation can occur rapidly, these methods and compositions can be used to treat acute diseases, conditions or illnesses such as sepsis, stroke and myocardial infarction. The therapeutic and / or prophylactic agents included in the nanoparticle composition may also be able to change the transcription rate of a given species, thereby affecting gene expression.

[0400] Diseases, disorders and / or conditions characterized by malfunction or aberrant protein or polypeptide activity include, but are not limited to, rare diseases, infectious diseases (such as vaccines and therapeutics), cancer and proliferative diseases, genetic diseases (e.g., cystic fibrosis), autoimmune diseases, diabetes, neurodegenerative diseases, cardiovascular and renal vascular diseases, and metabolic diseases.

[0401] It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the specific dosage for a particular subject may vary depending on the type, age and general condition of the subject; the purpose of management; the specific ingredients; the mode of management; and so on. The lipid nanoparticles or pharmaceutical compositions of the present application can be formulated in a unit dosage form for ease of administration and uniform dosage. However, it should be understood that the total daily dosage of the lipid nanoparticles or pharmaceutical compositions of the present application will be determined by the attending physician within the scope of reasonable medical judgment. The specific therapeutically effective, prophylactically effective or other appropriate dosage level (e.g., for imaging) for any particular patient will depend on a variety of factors, including the severity and identification (if any) of the disease being treated; the one or more therapeutic agents and / or prophylactic agents used; the specific ingredients used; the patient's age, weight, general health, sex and diet; the administration time, route of administration and excretion rate of the specific drug ingredient used; the duration of treatment; drugs used in combination with or concurrently with the specific drug ingredient used; and factors well known to the medical community.

[0402] The application further provides a method for therapeutic and / or preventative specific delivery to mammalian organs, said method comprising administering any one of the application's lipid nanoparticles or pharmaceutical composition to mammals, said administration comprising contacting mammalian organs with lipid nanoparticles or pharmaceutical composition, thereby delivering therapeutic and / or preventative to organs. Therapeutic and / or preventative, for example, protein, cytotoxic agent, radioactive ion, chemotherapeutic agent or nucleic acid (for example RNA, for example mRNA) can be delivered to cells or organs. In the case where therapeutic and / or preventative is mRNA, when cell contacts with lipid nanoparticles or pharmaceutical composition, translatable mRNA can be translated in cells to produce target polypeptide. However, substantially non-translatable mRNAs also can be delivered to cells. Substantially non-translatable mRNA can be used as vaccine and / or can isolate the translation composition of cells to reduce the expression of other species in cells.

[0403] In some embodiments, the lipid nanoparticles can target cells of a particular type or category (e.g., cells of a particular organ or system thereof). For example, lipid nanoparticles comprising target treatment and / or prevention can be specifically delivered to the liver, kidney, spleen, femur, or lung of a mammal. Specific delivery to a particular category of cells, organs, or their systems or groups means that a higher proportion of lipid nanoparticles comprising therapeutic and / or preventive agents, including treatment and / or prevention, is delivered to the target destination (e.g., tissue) relative to other destinations, e.g., when nanoparticles are administered to a mammal. In some embodiments, the target tissue is selected from the group consisting of liver, kidney, lung, spleen, femur, eye tissue (e.g., by intraocular, subretinal, or intravitreal injection), vascular endothelium in a blood vessel (e.g., intracoronary or intrafemoral) or kidney, and tumor tissue (e.g., by intratumoral injection).

[0404] The lipid nanoparticle of the present application or pharmaceutical composition can be used by any approach.In some embodiments, one or more administrations in multiple approaches include, oral, intravenous, intramuscular, intraarterial, intramedullary, intrathecal, subcutaneous, intraventricular, percutaneous or intradermal, intradermal, rectal, intravaginal, intraperitoneal, intraocular, subretinal, intravitreal, local (such as by powder, ointment, cream, gel, lotion and / or drops), mucosa, nose, cheek, intestine, vitreous, tumor, sublingual, intranasal; By intratracheal instillation, bronchial instillation and / or suction; As oral spray and / or powder, nasal spray and / or aerosol, and / or by portal vein catheter.In some embodiments, lipid nanoparticle or pharmaceutical composition can be intravenous, intramuscular, intradermal, intraarterial, tumor, subcutaneous, intraocular, subretinal, intravitreal or by inhalation administration.However, considering the possible progress in drug delivery science, the application is contained in delivering or describing lipid nanoparticle or pharmaceutical composition described herein by any suitable approach. Generally, the most appropriate route of administration depends on a variety of factors, including the properties of the lipid nanoparticle composition comprising one or more therapeutic and / or prophylactic measures (e.g., its stability in various bodily environments (e.g., blood and gastrointestinal tract)), the condition of the patient (e.g., whether the patient can tolerate a particular route of administration), and the like.

[0405] In certain embodiments, a therapeutic and / or prophylactic agent is administered to a mammal at a dose of 0.0001 mg / kg to 10 mg / kg. For example, 0.0001 mg / kg to 10 mg / kg, 0.001 mg / kg to 10 mg / kg, 0.005 mg / kg to 10 mg / kg, 0.01 mg / kg to 10 mg / kg, 0.05 mg / kg to 10 mg / kg, 0.1 mg / kg to 10 mg / kg 1mg / kg to 10mg / kg, 2mg / kg to 10mg / kg, 5mg / kg to 10mg / kg, 0.0001mg / kg to 5mg / kg, 0.001mg / kg to 5mg / kg, 0.005mg / kg to 5mg / kg, 0.01mg / kg to 5mg / kg, 0.05mg / kg to 5mg / kg, 0.1mg / kg to 5mg / kg, 1mg / kg to 5mg / kg, 2mg / kg to 5mg / kg, 0.0001mg / kg to 2.5mg / kg, 0.001mg / kg to 2.5mg / kg, 0.005mg / kg to 2.5mg / kg, 0.01mg / kg to 2.5mg / kg 0.05mg / kg to 2.5mg / kg, 0.1mg / kg to 2.5mg / kg, 1mg / kg to 2.5mg / kg, 2mg / kg to 2.5mg / kg, 0.0001mg / kg to 1mg / kg, 0.001mg / kg to 1mg / kg, 0.005mg / kg to 1mg / kg, 0.01mg / kg to 1mg / kg, 0.05mg / kg to 1mg / kg, 0.1mg / kg to 1mg / kg, 0.0001mg / kg to 0.25mg / kg, 0.001mg / kg to 0.25mg / kg, 0.005mg / kg to 0.25mg / kg, 0.01mg / kg to 0.25mg / kg, 0.05mg / kg to 0.25mg / kg or 0.1mg / kg to 0.25mg / kg.

[0406] In some embodiments, the dosage can be administered once or repeatedly with the same or different amounts every day to obtain the mRNA expression and / or treatment, diagnosis, prevention or imaging effect of the desired level. The desired dosage can be, for example, three times a day, twice a day, once a day, every other day, every three days, every week, every two weeks, every three weeks or every four weeks. In certain embodiments, the desired dosage can be delivered using multiple administrations (for example, twice, three times, four times, five times, six times, seven times, eight times, nine times, ten times, eleven times, twelve times, thirteen times, fourteen times or more administrations). In some embodiments, for example, before or after surgery, or in the case of acute disease, illness or illness, single dose can be used.

[0407] The lipid nanoparticles of the present application can be used in combination with one or more other treatments, preventions, diagnosis or imaging agents. "In combination with ..." does not mean that the reagents must be administered and / or formulated to be delivered together at the same time, although these delivery methods are within the scope of the present application. For example, one or more nanoparticles comprising one or more different treatments and / or preventive agents can be administered in combination. The nanoparticles can be administered before or after one or more other desired treatments or medical procedures. Typically, each medicament will be administered with a dosage and / or schedule determined for the medicament.
