Abstract
The present disclosure generally relates to lyophilized pharmaceutical compositions comprising polymeric nanoparticles which, upon reconstitution, have low levels of greater than 10 micron size particles. Other aspects of the invention include methods of making such nanoparticles.
Claims22
A reconstituted lyophilized pharmaceutical composition suitable for parenteral administration comprising:
- a 10-100 mg/mL concentration of polymeric nanoparticles in an aqueous medium;
- wherein the polymeric nanoparticles comprise:
- a poly(lactic) acid-block-poly(ethylene)glycol copolymer or poly(lactic)-co-poly(glycolic) acid-block-poly(ethylene)glycol copolymer, and a taxane agent;
- 4 to 6 weight percent sucrose or trehalose;
- and
- 7 to 12 weight percent hydroxypropyl β-cyclodextrin.
A pharmaceutically acceptable aqueous solution comprising:
- about 40-60 mg/mL polymeric nanoparticles, wherein the nanoparticles comprise a poly(lactic) acid-block-poly(ethylene)glycol copolymer or poly(lactic)-co-poly(glycolic) acid-block-poly(ethylene)glycol copolymer, and a taxane;
- about 7 to about 12 weight percent hydroxypropyl β-cyclodextrin;
- and
- about 4 to about 6 weight percent sucrose.
A reconstituted lyophilized pharmaceutical composition suitable for parenteral administration comprising:
- a 10-100 mg/mL concentration of polymeric nanoparticles in an aqueous medium;
