Abstract: Provided herein are aqueous antibody formulations that exhibit improved stability and low viscosity. The formulations include an antibody or an antigen-binding fragment, a buffer, and a salt selected from the group of magnesium glutamate, magnesium acetate, magnesium aspartate, magnesium sulfate, arginine acetate, arginine aspartate, arginine glutamate, arginine sulfate, lysine acetate, lysine aspartate, lysine glutamate, lysine sulfate, sodium acetate, sodium aspartate, sodium glutamate, sodium sulfate, lithium acetate, lithium aspartate, lithium glutamate, or lithium sulfate, where the formulations have a pH of about 4 to about 8 and, optionally an osmolality of about 250 mOsm/kg to about 1500 mOsm/kg
The present invention relates generally to antibody formulations. Specifically, the present invention relates to monoclonal antibody formulations with improved stability and low viscosity.
BACKGROUND
Antibody formulations can lose their efficacy over time due, for example, to the effects of denaturation, oxidation, aggregation, or other degradation reactions.
Degradation and aggregation of antibodies in an antibody formulation can also pose risks such as toxicity or immunogenicity. High solution viscosity can negatively impact the manufacturability and performance of protein therapeutic agents, especially those formulated at high protein concentrations.
The low level of stability exhibited by currently available pharmaceutical antibody formulations is disadvantageous due to, for example, loss of efficacy of the antibody formulation before administration and possible toxicity and immunogenicity due to the degradation/aggregation. Traditional excipients used to stabilize proteins in solution can often increase the viscosity of the solution. Therefore, there is a need in the art for an antibody formulation that will allow for improved stability of antibodies. Additionally, there is a need in the art of antibody formulation that will allow for the development of stable and low-viscosity antibody solutions.
SUMMARY
The present invention is based on the discovery that antibodies can be stabilized in solution by including a salt selected from the group of magnesium glutamate, magnesium acetate, magnesium aspartate, magnesium sulfate, arginine acetate, arginine aspartate, arginine glutamate, arginine sulfate, lysine acetate, lysine aspartate, lysine glutamate, lysine sulfate, sodium acetate, sodium aspartate, sodium glutamate, sodium sulfate, lithium acetate, lithium aspartate, lithium glutamate, and lithium sulfate. The resulting stabilized antibody solutions are also less viscous compared to formulations which do not include one of these salts or that contain traditional excipients, for example sugars like sucrose, used to stabilize proteins. The osmolality of stabilized antibody solutions with one of these salts is also less than that with sugars and polyols such as sucrose, trehalose, sorbitol, mannitol etc. when formulated at equipotent concentrations.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Over the past few decades, therapies involving the use of monoclonal antibodies and other Fc-derived antigen-binding proteins have become a mainstay of modern medicine. There is an ever-increasing reliance on these complex molecules in various therapeutic areas including but not limited to oncology, immunology, immuno-oncology, cardiology with nearly 100 molecules approved for therapeutic use to date and more than 500 at various stages of development or clinical trials.
A fundamental aspect for ensuring the transition of these therapeutic entities from the lab into manufacturable and marketable products of high and consistent quality is their stability in the dosage form. Owing to their complex chemistry and structure, proteins are susceptible to various forms of physical and chemical degradation that can compromise the biological efficacy and safety of the final drug product. Protein aggregation for example is a key quality attribute that is routinely monitored for protein-based products and is critical to the determination of product shelf life. At a fundamental level, protein aggregation is linked to the stability of the native form of the protein, with a growth in non-native cell (e.g., a non-native mammalian cell) generally linked to an increased rate and extent of aggregation. Thus, it is no surprise that attempts to control and minimize aggregation during product shelf life (kinetic stability) are often mediated through the use of excipients or formulation conditions intended to increase
conformational stability of the protein. Essentially, the intent is to stabilize the protein in its native conformation in order to minimize the population of aggregation-competent “non-native” species. Sugars and polyols, such as sucrose, trehalose, mannitol, sorbitol etc. are often used to stabilize proteins in their native state and reduce rates of aggregation. However an unwanted effect of using these stabilizers is the concentration-dependent increase in solution viscosity.
Solution viscosity is a key attribute of protein products especially those that are formulated at high protein concentrations (for example ³100 mg/mL for an antibody or Fc-derived proteins of similar molecular weight) and it can critically impact the utility and success of the product. The manufacturability of a product and the end use by the patient or healthcare practitioner is intimately linked to the ability of a solution to flow seamlessly. High viscosity, for example, can necessitate the use of specialized administration devices or protocols which may not always be suitable for the desired population thereby limiting the use of the product. In other instances, high solution viscosity may require the application of manufacturing technologies which may negatively impact the stability of the protein (for example high-temperature processing). It is thus not unusual to employ viscosity-reducing excipients, such as salts and amino acids, in high protein concentration solutions. However, these excipients can negatively impact the stability of the protein thereby resulting in solutions with an increased aggregation rate compared to high- viscosity control solutions lacking the viscosity-reducing agent. In essence, commonly employed stabilizers and the viscosity-reducing excipients can have an opposite effect on product performance thereby complicating its development.
Another critical attribute for injectable products (most protein-based products) that needs to be considered is its osmolality. While intravenous solutions generally need to be isotonic, it is not unusual for subcutaneous solutions to be hypertonic. In fact, there is evidence in literature of hypertonic formulations resulting in enhanced protein bioavailability following subcutaneous administration (Fathallah, A.M. et al, Biopharm Drug Dispos. 2015 Mar; 36(2): 115-25). Thus, the impact of solution osmolality (and thus tonicity) on injection site discomfort and/or reaction as well as bioavailability in the patient population needs to be carefully monitored and characterized during clinical development phases.
Thus, there is a need in the art of formulating antibody and other Fc-derived products for developing stable, low-viscosity solution formulations with well characterized osmotic properties.
Provided herein are aqueous antibody formulations that include about 0.1 mg/mL to about 500 mg/mL of an antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof (e.g., any of
the exemplary antibodies or antigen-binding fragments described herein or known in the art); about 1 mM to about 100 mM of a buffer (e.g., any of the exemplary buffers described herein or known in the art); and about 1 mM to 750 mM of a salt selected from the group consisting of: magnesium glutamate, magnesium acetate, magnesium aspartate, magnesium sulfate, arginine acetate, arginine aspartate, arginine glutamate, arginine sulfate, lysine acetate, lysine aspartate, lysine glutamate, lysine sulfate, sodium acetate, sodium aspartate, sodium glutamate, sodium sulfate, lithium acetate, lithium aspartate, lithium glutamate, and lithium sulfate, where the formulations have a pH of about 4 to about 8.
