Description

Lipids and Lipid NanoparticlesBackground of the inventionLipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are a type of nanoscale delivery system composed of lipids that have gained significant attention and validation in the field of medicine. These particles have shown great potential for the delivery of various therapeutic agents, including but not limited to nucleic acids such as DNA, RNA, circRNA, self-amplifying RNA, small-activating RNA, and siRNA. LNPs offer several advantages over other delivery systems, including intracellular delivery of sensitive nucleic acids like mRNA, biocompatibility, biodegradability, and the ability to encapsulate hydrophobic and hydrophilic molecules.The development of LNPs as a drug delivery system can be traced back to the early 1990s. Researchers recognized the potential of lipids to form stable nanoparticles and protect encapsulated molecules. While various molecules of different sizes and properties can be encapsulated in lipid particles, the focus of LNP research was on gene therapy, where the delivery of nucleic acids posed significant challenges due to their inherent instability and the need for efficient intracellular delivery. Over the years, advancements in lipid chemistry, formulation techniques, and manufacturing processes have contributed to the refinement of LNP-based delivery systems.LNPs have shown tremendous promise in the field of medicine, particularly in the delivery of nucleic acid-based therapeutics. This includes the delivery of small interfering RNA (siRNA) for gene silencing, messenger RNA (mRNA) for protein synthesis, and gene editing tools such as CRISPR-Cas9. LNPs protect the encapsulated nucleic acids from degradation, enhance their cellular uptake, and facilitate their delivery and release at the target site, thereby improving therapeutic efficacy.One of the significant breakthroughs in LNP-based medicine came with the development of COVID-19 mRNA vaccines. The mRNA vaccines from Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna, which use LNPs as delivery vehicles, demonstrated remarkable effectiveness and safety in combating COVID-19, proving themselves as life-saving technology. These vaccines not only showcased the potential of LNPs but also heralded the development and deployment of mRNA-based vaccines and therapeutic for other diseases.Despite the progress made, there are several hurdles and problems that remain with LNP-based delivery systems. One of the main challenges is achieving efficient and targeted delivery to specific tissues or cells. LNPs face barriers such as uptake by the reticuloendothelial system (RES) and clearance by the liver and kidneys, which can limit their circulation time and reduce their therapeutic efficacy.Another challenge is the potential for toxicity and unwanted immune responses. LNPs may induce an immune response due to their foreign nature and inherent adjuvant potential, leading to adverse reactions or decreased therapeutic outcomes.Furthermore, the scalability and manufacturing of LNPs pose significant challenges. Maintaining batch-to-batch consistency, controlling particle size, and optimizing production processes are crucial for the successful translation of LNPs from the laboratory to large-scale manufacturing.Considering the structural importance of lipids and their influence in the overall particle biophysical characteristics, there exists a need to develop new lipid compounds, e.g., cationic lipids, ionizablelipids (generally amines, tertiary substituted), polymer-conjugated lipids, and structural lipids, that afford efficient delivery of the therapeutic agents, sufficient activity of the therapeutic agents (e.g., expression of mRNA after delivery), preferential if not selective targeting to cells / tissues / organs, optimal pharmacokinetics, and / or other suitable physiological, biological, and / or therapeutic properties.Brief Summary of the InventionThe present invention provides for lipids that may be formulated in a delivery vehicle to facilitate the encapsulation of a wide range of single or multiple payloads including therapeutic, theragnostic, preventive, prophylactic, pre-emptive, and diagnostic agents, such as, without limitation, nucleic acids (e.g., RNA or DNA), proteins, peptides, and small molecule active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).The lipid compounds of the present invention can be used in combination with other lipid components, such as neutral lipids, sterols and polymer conjugated lipids, to form lipid nanoparticles for delivery of payloads both in vitro and in vivo, for therapeutic or prophylactic purposes, including vaccination. Thus, the present invention further provides for lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) comprising said lipids as well as methods of administering LNPs to a subject, e.g., delivering an mRNA and achieving prolonged expression of a desired polypeptide in the animal or human subject.In further embodiments, the invention provides for a method of delivering and / or producing a polypeptide of interest in a cell.In further embodiments, the invention provides for a method of treating a disease, disorder, or condition in a subject, comprising the step of administering the foregoing lipid nanoparticle and / or lipid nanoparticle composition, to a subject in need of such treatment. The lipid particle and / or lipid particle composition may be also delivered to a subject as a component of a vaccine or diagnostic composition.Brief Description of the DrawingsFIG. 1. The Iog2 fold change of whole-body bioluminescence of firefly luciferase of LNPs containing novel ionizable lipids over LP-O1 LNPs in mouse. The in vivo experiments were done in C57BL / 6 mouse at 0.25 mg / kg and the bioluminescence was collected at t=6 hr.Detailed Description of the InventionDefinitions"Administration", "administering" and variants thereof refers to introducing a composition or agent of the present invention (e.g., an LNP comprising a nucleic acid payload) into a subject, organ, tissue or cells for theragnostic, preventive, prophylactic, pre-emptive therapeutic, pharmacokinetic, diagnostic, and theragnostic purposes, or companion medicine and research purposes. "Administration" includes in vivo, in vitro, ex vivo and in utero administration. The introduction of a composition or agent into a subject is by any route of administration that is suitable for the specific composition or agent. Routes of administration include, but not limited to, oral, pulmonary, intranasal, parenteral (e.g., intravenous, intramuscular, intraperitoneal, or subcutaneous), rectally, intravesical, intranodal, intralymphatical, intratumoral, regional, local and topical administration."Cationic lipid" refers to any lipid that is or can be positively charged. In some embodiments, the cationic lipid is an ionizable lipid, i.e., an ionizable cationic lipid, which is predominantly protonated and positively charged at a pH that exceeds about 2 units of the pKa value, known as the negativeIog(10) value of the apparent acid dissociation constant (Ka) of the protonated, positively charged form of the lipid in the LNP assembly context. Cationic and cationic ionizable lipids are highly waterinsoluble, even when charged, due to the lipophilic nature of the overall molecule. Therefore, the thermodynamic pKa of an ionizable lipid is generally not measured but is estimated or calculated, and the measurement of pKa is instead done at the particle level by a TNS method (Heyes J et al., J Control Release 2005, pp. 276-287). A pKa measured in this way, on LNPs containing among other lipids the ionizable lipid, is termed "apparent pKa", "pKa(app)" or "LNP pKa" and is generally denoted as pKa'. The pKa' is about 2 to 4 units lower than the pKa, based on estimation methodology proposed for correlating the pKa and pKa' (e.g. Carrasco et al., Comm Biol, 2021, vol 4:956). For the purposes of relating functional aspects of ionizable lipids and their LNPs we use pKa' in the following sections.One function of ionizable lipids is to facilitate endosomal release, by changing LNP structure via interaction with the endosomal membrane of LNPs within endosomes. This occurs about pH 5.5 and below. In some embodiments, ionizable cationic lipid in an LNP is predominantly neutral at physiological pH (pH 7.4) and is ionized and positively charged in the same LNP at a pH that is below physiological pH (e.g., between pH 4-5, preferably about pH 4.5). In some embodiments, the ionizable cationic lipid is about neutral at physiological pH (7.4 pH) and becomes protonated when introduced to an environment where the pH is about 4.5 or the pH inside of endosomes. It will be understood by one of ordinary skill in the art that the addition or removal of protons as a function of pH is a fast equilibrium process, and that the reference to a charged or a neutral lipid refers to the nature of the predominant species and does not require that all of the lipid be present in the charged or neutral form, whether in isolation or in an LNP. Generally, ionizable cationic lipids have a pKa' in the range of about 4 to about 7 as measured in the particle context (TNS assay). In some embodiments, ionizable lipid may include "cleavable lipid" or "SS-cleavable lipid". Corresponding quaternary lipids of all ionizable cationic lipids described herein (i.e., where a nitrogen atom is plus charged and has four substituents) are contemplated within the scope of this disclosure.

Table 3In some embodiments the cationic lipid is a non-fusogenic lipid. By a "non-fusogenic lipid" is meant a cationic lipid that can condense and / or encapsulate a payload, e.g., a therapeutic nucleic acid, but has insufficient fusogenic activity to effectively delivery the payload across cellular membranes. In some embodiments, the lipid nanoparticles have mean diameter of 20-75 nm or 30-100 nm.The pKa', i.e., the apparent pKa, of formulated cationic lipids in particles, can be correlated with the effectiveness of the LNPs for intracellular delivery of nucleic acids. The pKa' of a cationic lipid can be determined in lipid nanoparticles, e.g., using an assay based on fluorescence of 2-(p-toluidino)-6- napthalene sulfonic acid (TNS). Lipid nanoparticles in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), at a concentration of 0.4 mM total lipids, are prepared using standard methods. TNS can be prepared as a 100 mM stock solution in distilled water and mixed into buffers of different pH values. Vesicles can be diluted to 24 mM lipid in 2 mL of buffered solutions containing, 10 mM HEPES, 10 mM MES, 10 mM ammonium acetate, 130 mM NaCI, where the pH ranges from 2.5 to 11. An aliquot of the TNS solution can be added to give a final concentration of 1 mM and, after vortex mixing, the fluorescence intensity is measured at room temperature in a SLM Aminco Series 2 Luminescence Spectrophotometer using excitation and emission wavelengths of 321 nm and 445 nm. A sigmoidal non-linear least-squares fit analysis (titration curve) can be applied to the fluorescence data and the pKa' is measured as the pH giving rise to half-maximal fluorescence intensity.In one embodiment, as a molar percent of total lipids, the LNP comprises about 30% to about 80%, about 30% to about 70%, about 30% to about 60%, about 30% to about 50%, or about 30% to about 40%, about 40% to about 80%, about 30% to about 70%, about 40% to about 60%, about 40% to about 50%, about 50% to about 80%, about 50% to about 70%, 50% to about 60%, about 60% to about 80%, or about 70% to about 80% (ionizable) cationic lipid.SterolIn one embodiment, the lipid particles (e.g., lipid nanoparticles) can further comprise a component, such as a sterol, to provide membrane integrity and stability of the lipid particle.

Messenger RNA may be prepared by, for example, enzymatic synthesis which provides a process of template-directed synthesis of RNA molecules from an engineered DNA template comprised of anupstream bacteriophage promoter sequence linked to a downstream sequence encoding the gene of interest. Template DNA can be prepared for in vitro transcription from several sources with appropriate techniques which are well known in the art including, but not limited to, plasmid DNA and polymerase chain reaction amplification.Transcription of the RNA occurs in vitro using the appropriate linearized DNA template in the presence of the corresponding RNA polymerase and adenosine, guanosine, uridine and cytidine ribonucleoside triphosphates (rNTPs) under conditions that support polymerase activity while minimizing potential degradation of the resultant mRNA transcripts. In vitro transcription can be performed using a variety of commercially available kits including but not limited to RiboMax Large Scale RNA Production System (Promega), MegaScript Transcription kits (Life Technologies) as well as with commercially available reagents including RNA polymerases and rNTPs. The methodology for in vitro transcription of mRNA is well-known in the art.The desired in vitro transcribed messenger RNA is then purified from the undesired components of the transcription or associated reactions. Techniques for the isolation of the messenger RNA transcripts are well known in the art and include phenol / chloroform extraction or precipitation with either alcohol in the presence of monovalent cations or lithium chloride.In some embodiments, the messenger RNA associated with the LNP is a self-amplifying messenger RNA (SAM) molecule. In certain embodiments, the SAM is derived from or based on an alphavirus. Such SAM molecules are known in the art and can be produced using replication elements derived from, for example, alphaviruses substituting the structural viral proteins with a nucleotide sequence encoding a protein of interest. The target cell to which the SAM is delivered generates an exponential increase of encoded gene products, such as proteins or antigens, which can accumulate in the cells or be secreted therefrom. The SAM may contain one or more genes selected from the group consisting of viral replicases, viral proteases, viral helicases and other nonstructural viral proteins, and may also comprise 5'- and 3'-end cis-active replication sequences and, optionally, a heterologous sequence that encodes a desired amino acid sequence. A subgenomic promoter that directs expression of the heterologous sequence may be present. In embodiments, the heterologous sequence may be fused in frame to other coding regions in the SAM and / or be under the control of an internal ribosome entry site (IRES).In some embodiments, the RNA associated with the LNP is a small activating RNA (saRNA), which is a TNA that causes enhancement of endogenous messenger RNA transcription. The saRNA molecules are small double-stranded nucleic acids (See e.g., Voutila et al. Mol Ther. 2017 Dec 6;25(12):2705-2714).The RNA of the invention may encode one or more polypeptide antigens that contain a range of epitopes such as epitopes capable of eliciting either a helper T-cell response or a cytotoxic T-cell response, or both via antigen presentation by professional antigen presenting cells (APCs) or other presenting cells including somatic cells and followed by a humoral response mediated by B-cells. In some embodiments, the RNA may be engineered to express multiple nucleotide sequences, from two or more open reading frames, thereby allowing co- expression of proteins, such as two or more antigens together with cytokines or other immunomodulators, which can enhance the generation of an immune response. Such a SAM molecule might be useful in the simultaneous production of various proteins as a bivalent or multivalent vaccine.The RNA, including mRNA and self-amplifying RNA may be prepared using any suitable method known in the art. An RNA molecule that contains modified nucleotides can be prepared by transcribing a DNA that encodes the RNA molecule using a suitable DNA-dependent RNA polymerase, such as T7 phage RNA polymerase, SP6 phage RNA polymerase, T3 phage RNA polymerase, and the like, or mutants of the polymerases which allow efficient incorporation of modified nucleotides into RNA. The incorporation of nucleotide analogs into an RNA may be employed to alter the stability of such RNA molecule, to increase resistance against RNases, to establish replication after introduction into appropriate host cells ("infectivity" of the RNA), and / or to induce or reduce innate and adaptive immune responses.Process of making lipid nanoparticlesLNPs of the invention can be made using approaches which are well-known in the art of formulation. For example, suitable LNPs can be formed using mixing processes such as microfluidics, including herringbone micromixing, and T-junction mixing of two fluid streams, one of which contains an RNA, e.g., mRNA, typically in an aqueous solution, and the other of which has the various required lipid components, typically in ethanol.Lipid particles (e.g., lipid nanoparticles) can form spontaneously upon mixing of the nucleic acid, e.g., mRNA, and the lipid(s). Depending on the desired particle size distribution, the resultant nanoparticle mixture can be extruded through a membrane (e.g., 100 nm cut-off) using, for example, a thermobarrel extruder, such as Lipex Extruder (Evonik). In some cases, the extrusion step can be omitted. Ethanol removal and simultaneous buffer exchange can be accomplished by, for example, dialysis or tangential flow filtration. In one embodiment, the lipid nanoparticles are formed as described in Example 3 described in U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 194,620.Methods for preparing LNPs are disclosed, e.g., in W02022 / 261101 WO2019051289, US2013 / 0037977, US2010 / 0015218, US2013 / 0156845, US2013 / 0164400, US2012 / 0225129, US2010 / 0130588, US2007 / 0042031, US2004 / 0142025, Kulkarni et al., 2018, ACS Nano, 12:4787 and Kulkarni et al., 2017, Nanoscale, 36: 133347, the content of each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. In some embodiments, lipid particles (e.g., lipid nanoparticles) can be prepared using a continuous mixing method, a direct dilution process, or an in-line dilution process. The processes and apparatuses for apparatuses for preparing lipid nanoparticles using direct dilution and in-line dilution processes are described, e.g., in US2007 / 0042031. The processes and apparatuses for preparing lipid nanoparticles using stepwise dilution processes are described in US2004 / 0142025.A general small-scale formulation can be prepared as follows: An mRNA solution and an anhydrous ethanol lipid solution are prepared for mixing. mRNA / acidic buffer mRNA stream is prepared in acidic buffer at a concentration between 0.05 to 0.25 mg / mL in either sodium acetate, sodium citrate or other appropriate acid with buffer at a molar concentration ranging from about 10 to about 100 mM at a pH between 3 to 6. For certain formulations, sodium chloride (NaCI) can be added to the acidic buffer up to 150 mM.Lipids / ethanolLipids are a mixture of several components dissolved in anhydrous ethanol. The lipid mixture typically comprises four components: ionizable lipid(s), phospholipid(s) (e.g. DSPC and DOPE), sterol(s) (e.g.cholesterol), and polymer conjugated lipid(s) (e.g. PEG-lipid such as DMG-PEG2k). The molar concentration range of each component is shown below.• Ionizable lipid: 30 to 60%• Sterol: 30 to 50%• Phospholipid: 5 to 25%• PEG-lipid: 1 to 3%The concentration of the lipid mixture is a function of the N:P ratio. The N:P ratio is the molar ratio of ionizable amine of ionizable lipids (N) to phosphate group of mRNA (P). The N:P ratio generally ranges from 3 to 6. The lipid mixture concentration in ethanol generally ranges from 3 to 18 mg / mL. The mixing volume ratio of lipid / ethanol to mRNA / acidic buffer is typically 1 to 3.Mixing conditions mRNA stream and lipid stream can be mixed through different types of mixers such as microTee mixer, microfluidics, vortex mixer. In some cases, pipette mixing can also be adapted for a very small-scale formulation. For instance, lipids / ethanol can be added into mRNA / acidic buffers using a pipette or liquid handler. The mixing volume of lipid / ethanol to mRNA / acidic buffer is typically 1:3.Buffer exchangeAfter mixing is complete, buffer exchange will be performed to rapidly reduce the level of ethanol percentage and increase pH. Buffer exchange can be done through performing dialysis, using a desalting column combined with centrifuge, or dilution with a storage buffer.Concentration and sterile filtrationConcentration is needed if a higher concentration than the output is required. For a small-scale formulation, concentration is typically carried out using a centrifugal filter combined with centrifuge. Finally, sterile filtration is conducted through passing the LNP solution through a 0.22 um sterile filter.General formulation composition examplesAccording to some embodiments, the disclosure provides for an LNP comprising a TNA and an ionizable lipid. For example, a lipid nanoparticle formulation that is made and loaded with a TNA is disclosed in WO2019051289. In one embodiment, the lipid particles (e.g., lipid nanoparticles) can be prepared by an impinging jet process (see e.g., W02022 / 261101). According to some embodiments, the TNA is encapsulated in the lipid(s) thereby protecting it from degradation by a nuclease, e.g., in an aqueous solution. In one embodiment, the TNA in the lipid nanoparticle is not substantially degraded after exposure of the lipid particle to a nuclease at 37°C. for at least about 20, 30, 45, or 60 minutes.The efficiency of encapsulation of the TNA, e.g., mRNA, within the LNPs may be at least 50%, for example about 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99%. In some embodiments, the encapsulation efficiency may be at least 80%. In certain embodiments, the encapsulation efficiency may be at least 90%.Encapsulation of TNA in the lipid nanoparticles can be determined by performing a membrane- impermeable fluorescent dye exclusion assay, which uses a dye that has enhanced fluorescence when associated with nucleic acid, for example, an OLIGREEN® assay or PICOGREEN® assay. Generally, encapsulation is determined by adding the dye to the lipid particle formulation, measuring the resulting fluorescence, and comparing it to the fluorescence observed upon addition of a small amount of non-ionic detergent. Detergent mediated disruption of the lipid bilayer releases the encapsulated TNA, allowing it to interact with the membrane-impermeable dye. Encapsulation of ceDNA can be calculated as E = (Io - 1 ) / lo, where I and Io refer to the fluorescence intensities before and after the addition of detergent, respectively.CompositionsIn one embodiment, the lipid particle formulation is an aqueous, non-viscous and opaque nanosuspension. In one embodiment, the lipid particle (e.g., lipid nanoparticle) formulation is a lyophilized powder. According to some aspects, the disclosure provides for a lipid particle formulation further comprising one or more pharmaceutical excipients. In one embodiment, the lipid particle (e.g., lipid nanoparticle) formulation further comprises sucrose, tris buffer, trehalose and / or glycine. Pharmaceutical compositions for therapeutic purposes can be formulated as a solution, microemulsion, dispersion, liposomes, or other ordered structure suitable for high TNA (e.g., mRNA) concentration. Sterile injectable solutions can be prepared by incorporating the TNA (e.g., mRNA) in the required amount in an appropriate buffer (e.g., pharmaceutically acceptable excipient) with one or a combination of ingredients enumerated above, as required, followed by filtration sterilization.In one embodiment, lipid particles (e.g., lipid nanoparticles) are solid core particles that possess at least one lipid bilayer. In one embodiment, the lipid particles (e.g., lipid nanoparticles) have a non- bilayer structure, i.e., a non-lamellar (i.e., non-bilayer) morphology. Without limitations, the non- bilayer morphology can include, for example, three dimensional tubes, rods, cubic symmetries, etc. The non-lamellar morphology (i.e., non-bilayer structure) of the lipid particles (e.g., lipid nanoparticles) can be determined using analytical techniques known to and used by those of skill in the art. Such techniques include, but are not limited to, Cryo-Transmission Electron Microscopy ("Cryo-TEM"), Differential Scanning calorimetry ("DSC"), X-Ray Diffraction, and the like. For example, the morphology of the lipid particles (lamellar vs. non-lamellar) can readily be assessed and characterized using, e.g., Cryo-TEM analysis as described in US2010 / 0130588. In one embodiment, the lipid particles (e.g., lipid nanoparticles) having a non-lamellar morphology are electron dense. In one embodiment, the disclosure provides for a lipid particle (e.g., lipid nanoparticle) that is either unilamellar or multilamellar in structure. In some aspects, the disclosure provides for a lipid particle (e.g., lipid nanoparticle) formulation that comprises multi-vesicular particles and / or foam-based particles. By controlling the composition and concentration of the lipid components, one can control the rate at which the lipid conjugate exchanges out of the lipid particle and, in turn, the rate at which the lipid particle (e.g., lipid nanoparticle) becomes fusogenic. In addition, other variables including, for example, pH, temperature, or ionic strength, can be used to vary and / or control the rate at which the lipid particle (e.g., lipid nanoparticle) becomes fusogenic. By controlling the composition and concentration of the lipid conjugate, one can control the lipid particle size. In one embodiment, the pKa' of formulated cationic lipids can be correlated with the effectiveness of the LNPs for delivery of nucleic acids (see Jayaraman et al., Angewandte Chemie, International Edition (2012), 51(34), 8529- 8533; Semple et al., Nature Biotechnology 28, 172-176 (2010), both of which are incorporated by reference in their entireties). In one embodiment, the preferred range of pKa' for the ionizable lipid particle is about 6-7. In one embodiment, the pKa' of the ionizable lipid can be determined in lipid particles (e.g., lipid nanoparticles) using an assay based on fluorescence of 2-(p-toluidino)-6- napthalene sulfonic acid (TNS).Pharmaceutical compositions or formulations can optionally comprise one or more additional active substances, e.g., therapeutically and / or prophylactically active substances.
