Full Text The present invention relates to a stable, pharmaceutically acceptable, aqueous formulation of TNF-binding protein.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-ct), a potent cytokine, elicits a broad spectrum of biologic responses, which are mediated by binding to a cell surface receptor. Stauber el al." Human tumor necrosis factor-alpha receptor: purification by immunoaffinity chromatography and Initial characterization" (J. Biol. Chem. 263; 19098-19104, 1988) isolated the receptor for human TNF-alpha from a human histiocytic lymphoma cell line. Hohmann et al." Two different cell types have different major receptors for human tumor necrosis factor (TNF-alpha)"(J. Biol. Chem. 264: , 14927-14934,1989) concluded that there are 2 different proteins that serve as major receptors for TNF-alpha, one associated with myeloid cells and one associated with epithelial cells.
Using monoclonal antibodies, Brockhaus et al." Identification of two types of tumor necrosis factor receptors on human cell lines by monoclonal antibodies" Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. 87: 3127-3131, 1990) obtained evidence for 2 distinct TNF-binding proteins, both of which bind TNF-alpha and TNF-beta specifically and with high affinity. Gray et al. "Cloning of human tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor cDNA and expression of recombinant soluble TNF-binding protein"( Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. 87: 7380-7384, 1990) isolated the cDNA for one of the receptors. They found that it encodes a protein of 455 amino acids that is divided into an extracellular domain of 171 residues and a cytoplasmic domain of 221 residues, Aggarwal et al." Characterization of receptors for human tumour necrosis factor and their regulation by gamma-interferon" (Nature 318: 665-667,1985) showed that tumor necrosis factors alpha and beta Initiate their effects on cell function by binding to common cell surface receptors. The TNFA and TNFB receptors have different sizes and are expressed differentially In different cell lines (see Hohmann et al.,1989; and Engelmann et al.'Two tumor necrosis factor-binding proteins purified from human urine: evidence for Immunological cross -reactivity with cell surface tumor necrosis factor receptors."( J. Biol Chem. 265:1531-1536,1990)).


TNF-α-R, referred to by some as TNFR55, is the smaller of the 2 receptors. cDNAs for both receptors have been cloned and their nucleic acid sequence determined (see Loetscher et a!."MoIecular cloning and expression of the human 55 kd tumor necrosis factor receptor."(Cell 61: 351-359, 1990); Nophar et al." Soluble forms of tumor necrosis factor receptors (TNF-Rs): the cDNA for the type I TNF-R, cloned using amino acid sequence data of its soluble form, encodes both the cell surface and a soluble form of the receptor" {EMBO J. 9: 3269-3278, 1990); Schall et al." Molecular cloning and expression of a receptor for human tumor necrosis factor."( Cell 61: 361-370, 1990);Smith et al." A receptor for tumor necrosis factor defines an unusual family of cellular and viral proteins."{Science 248:1019-1023, 1990).
Proteins are known to undergo several degradative pathways, especially deamidation, aggregation, clipping of the peptide backbone an d oxidation. Many of these reactions can be slowed significantly by removal of water from the protein. Pharmaceutical preparation of Enbrel (TBP-II), for injectable solution, are formulated with Trometamol (Tris buffer) (Rote Liste 2002, from Rote Liste service Gmbh). Another injectable solution comprising TNFR-IgGl has been described in the application WO 97/41895. This document relates to a TNFR-IgGl formulation buffered at pH 6, with a citric acid buffer and in presence of mannitol. The application WO 94/06476 provides soluble TNF inhibitors, more especially TNFRs, in a non-specified saline buffer, to suppress TNF-dependant inflammatory diseases Formulations for an IL-1 inhibor, a tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitor and/or an erythropoietin (EPO) receptor agonist, comprising for example phosphate buffers, are disclosed in the patent application US 2002/0077294.
However, the development of an aqueous formulation for drug proteins has the advantages of eliminating reconstitution errors, thereby increasing dosing accuracy, as well as simplifying the use of the product clinically, thereby increasing patient compliance. Thus, it is an objective of this invention to provide an aqueous formulation of TNF-binding proteins, which provides acceptable control of degradation products, is stable to vigorous agitation (which induces aggregation), and is resistant to microbial contamination (which allows "multiple use" or "multi-dose" packaging).
DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The main object of the present invention is therefore a stable, pharmaceutically
acceptable, aqueous formulation of TNF-binding protein comprising a TNF-binding
protein human, a buffer and an isotonicity agent, wherein the TNF binding protein is TBP-I or TBP-II, the buffer is phosphate buffer and keeps the pH comprised between 6 and 7 and the isotonicity agent is selected from the group consisting of sodium chloride and mannitol.
A preservative may be included In the formulation to retard microbial growth
and thereby allow "multiple use" or "multi-dose" packaging of the TNF-binding protein.
Preservatives include phenol, benzyl alcohol, meta-cresol, methyl paraben, propyl


paraben, benzalconium chloride, and benzethonium chloride. The prererred preservatives include m-cresol and benzyl alcohol.
The liquid formulations of the invention can also be freeze -dried or lyophilised, if needed.
According to the present invention "TNF-binding proteins" means any protein, which has an affinity for TNF-alpha or TNF-beta and/or a protein, which comprises in full or in part the extra-cellular, soluble fragment of a protein belonging to the TNF receptors family.

According to a preferred embodiment of the invention the TNF-binding protein is
selected between recombinant h-TBP-1 (recombinant, extracellular, soluble fragment of human TNF Receptor-1, comprising the amino acid sequence corresponding to the 20-180 amino acids fragment of Nophar et al.), whose International Non-proprietry Name (INN) is "onercept", and recombinant h-TBP-2 (recombinant, extracellular, soluble fragment of TNF Receptor-2, comprising the amino acid sequence corresponding to 23-257 of Smith et al.). Most preferably it is recombinant hTBP-1 (r-hTBP-1). For all the other proteins the soluble, extracellular domain is indicated in the corresponding Swiss-Prot entry.
In the attempt to find a stable, liquid formulation, the effect of pH/buffer, ionic strength and excipients was evaluated. The description that follows reports on experiments carried out with TBP-1 (onercept).

Analytical tests and methods
The following analytical tests and methods were used:
• pH (potentiometric)
• appearance (colour, clarity/opalescence, particles) (visual inspection)
• purity and assay by SE-HPLC (working instruction TF 08/01)
• purity by HI-HPLC (working instruction TF 09/01)
• osmofaiity (cryoscopic measurement), at time zero only
• bioassay
First of all, the effect of pH/buffer, ionic strength and exciplents was evaluated. The compatibility with stoppers (coated and uncoated) was evaluated as well. Once selected the best conditions, the following three strengths were Investigated in pre-filled syringes: > 10 mg/mL
• 50 mg/mL
• 60 mg/mL
A stability study was performed up to 3 months after storage at +5±3°C; +25±2°C and +40±2"C and the following tests were executed: • pH
• appearance (colour, darity/opalescence, particles; by visual inspection)
assay (by SE-HPLC)
• purity (by SE-HPLC)
• purity (by HI-HPLC)
• osmolalfty (at time zero only)
• bioassay

pH Effect
In order to test the effect of pH/buffer, solution s of onercept at 5 mg/ml and 50 mg/ml were prepared by dilution of the drug substance in the following 10 mM buffers at different pH:
1. sodium acetate at pH 4,5 and 6
2. sodium citrate at pH 4, 5, 6 and 7
3. sodium phosphate at pH 5,6, 7 and 8
The solutions (about 20 ml/batch) were filled into 3 ml glass vials (1 ml filling volume), capped, stoppered and stored at +5±3°C, +25±2°C and +40±2°C to be analysed weekly up to 1 month. Results were as shown by the Graphs of Figures 1,2 and 3 and by Table 1:
Table 1 - Onercept formulated bulk at 5mg/ml and 50 mg/ml In 10mM buffers (losses in purity by SE-HPLC at +40±2°C)

(Table Removed)

* PHO= sodium phosphate buffer, CITR. = sodium citrate buffer, ACE= sodium acetate buffer
As shown by the table above and the graphs a pH dependence is observed both at 5 mg/ml and 50 mg/ml; the minor loss of purity % was observed at pH 6.0 and 7.0 for both strengths. Also citrate and acetate buffer at pH 4.0 had a positive effect on the aggregate content white at pH 8.0 in phosphate buffer a fast degradation path was observed.
No oxidation by HI-HPLC or change in pH or appearance was observed after 1 month storage at +40i2°C.
Ionic Strength Effect
In order to test the effect of various ionic strengths, solutions of onercept at 5 mg/ml and 50 mg/ml were prepared in phosphate buffer at three different molarities (10 mM, 50 mM and 100 mM) at pH 6.0, 6.5, and 7.0 each. The solutions (about 20 ml/batch) were filled into 3 ml glass vials {1 ml filling volume), capped, stoppered and stored at +5±3"C, +25±2°C and +40±2°C to be analysed weekly up to 1 month. Results were as shown by the Graphs of Figures 4 and 5 and by Table 2:
Table 2- Onercept formulated bulk at 5mg/ml and 50 mg/ml at different ionic strengths (losses in purity by SE-HPLC at +40±2°C)

(Table Removed)
As shown by the graphs and the table above the extent of aggregation is not affected by the buffer concentration: pH 7.0 has a negative effect on purity % at each buffer strength while a minor loss in purity was observed both at pH 6.0 and 6.5. No oxidation by HI-HPLC nor change in pH or appearance was observed after 1 month storage at +40±2°C.
Other Excipients (stabilizers) Effect
In order to test the effect of various excipients, solutions of onercept at 5 mg/ml and 50 mg/ml were prepared in phosphate buffer 40 mM at pH 6.0 and 6.5 and brought to isotonicity with sodium chloride, mannitol, glucose and saccharose. The solutions (about 20 ml/batch) were filled into 3 ml glass vials (1 ml filling volume), capped, stoppered and stored at +5±3°C, +25±2°C and +40±2°C to be analysed weekly up to 1 month.
Results were as shown by the Graphs of Figures 6 and 7 and by Table 3:
Table 3- Onercept formulated bulk at 5mg/ml and 50 mg/ml with excipients (losses in purity by SE-HPLC at +40±2°C)

(Table Removed)

As shown by the Graphs and the Table above sodium chloride and mannitol had the same behaviour as isotonicity agents. Consequently, sodium chloride was selected being already present in the drug substance solution. Further, no pH shift occurred after one month storage at +40±2°C while a modified pattern on the chromatographic profile was observed by HI-HPLC for the onercept formulations containing glucose and saccharose as stabilizers.
From all these results, the surprising conclusion comes that the most stable liquid formulations are those excipients, which are normally used as stabilizers. Therefore the most stable formulations are those, which contain only an appropriate buffer to dilute the active substance and an isotonicity agent.
In these conditions, the pH range applicable for good stability results is 6.0 to 7, preferably from 6 to 6.5. Isotonicity can be obtained by the addition of adequate amounts of sodium chloride or mannitol, preferably sodium chloride.
Further, analogous experiments have confirmed substantially the same results for strengths of TBP-1 up to 170 mg/ml, as well as for TBP -2.

Method of Preparation
• The liquid drug substance containing r-h TBP-1 is lyophilized and the resulting powder is collected to be titred.
• The required quantities of sodium chloride, d (sodium phosphate dihydrate and
sodium dihydrogen phosphate monohydrate are dissolved in approximately 800
g of WFI. Their amounts are calculated taking into account the contribution of
salts coming from the lyophilized drug substance.
• The pH is checked and adjusted to the value of 6.5 ± 0.2 with diluted (1:10)
ortho-phosphoric acid 85%.
• The required amount of lyophilized drug substance is added very slowly under
stirring and WFI is added to reach the final weight (calculated considering the
final density of the solution). The pH is checked and adjusted to pH 6.5 ± 0.2
with diluted ortho-phosphoric acid, at various steps during compounding.
• The r-h TBP-1 solution is first pre-filtered through a 0.45 urn membrane filter
followed by a sterile filtration on a 0.22 urn menbrane filter (DURA PORE) under
1.0 atm nitrogen pressure (the solution at 14.3 mg/mL is not pre-filtered). The
sterile solution is collected into a glass flask.
