According to the invention, the active vitamin D compound or a mimic thereof may be administered by high dose pulse administration so that high doses of the active vitamin D compound or a mimic thereof can be administered to an animal without inducing severe symptomatic hypercalcemia. | 06-25-2009 |
20090208453 | High pressure treatment of aggregated interferons - High pressure to treat aggregated interferons, particularly recombinant human interferon-β, to reduce the aggregate content of interferon material. Highly pure, soluble monomeric recombinant interferon-β is prepared in representative embodiments. Multiple strategies may be used in combination that make nonglycosylated IFN-β more amenable to high pressure treatment. It has been found that refolding yields of high pressure treatment can be significantly improved by use of a combination of strategies, including, or example a pre-treatment of the IFN-β that involves solubilizing and then precipitating the protein. This pre-treatment is particularly effective with respect to recombinant IFN-β inclusion bodies recovered from host cells such as | 08-20-2009 |
20100158899 | PROTEIN FORMULATION - A stable lyophilized protein formulation is described which can be reconstituted with a suitable diluent to generate a high protein concentration reconstituted formulation which is suitable for subcutaneous administration. For example, anti-IgE and anti-HER2 antibody formulations have been prepared by lyophilizing these antibodies in the presence of a lyoprotectant. The lyophilized mixture thus formed is reconstituted to a high protein concentration without apparent loss of stability of the protein. | 06-24-2010 |
20100239554 | EXTENDED RECOMBINANT POLYPEPTIDES AND COMPOSITIONS COMPRISING SAME - The present invention relates to compositions comprising biologically active proteins linked to extended recombinant polypeptide (XTEN), isolated nucleic acids encoding the compositions and vectors and host cells containing the same, and methods of using such compositions in treatment of glucose-related diseases, metabolic diseases, coagulation disorders, and growth hormone-related disorders and conditions. | 09-23-2010 |
20100261888 | Recombinant Production of Heparin Binding Proteins - A process for recovering and purifying refolded heparin binding proteins produced in heterologous host cells includes the step of incubation of the solubilized protein with a polyanionic species such as dextran sulfate. | 10-14-2010 |
20100330184 | INJECTION VEHICLE FOR POLYMER-BASED FORMULATIONS - The invention provides injection vehicles suitable for administering particulate suspensions, such as polymer-based formulations, as well as associated pharmaceutical formulations, articles of manufacture, and kits. Other aspects of the invention included methods for producing and administering pharmaceutical formulations. The injection vehicles of the invention are superior to conventional injection vehicles in that they include a pseudoplastic composition that improves injectability, which facilitates delivery of the desired dose. The injection vehicles of the invention also allow the use of smaller-bore needles than are usually necessary to inject polymer-based formulations, reducing the pain associated with injection of such formulations. | 12-30-2010 |
20110152190 | ERODIBLE POLYMERS FOR INJECTION - A composition for administration of a beneficial agent, contains a solvent mixture including a hydrophobic solvent and a hydrophilic solvent; a bioerodible polymer; and a beneficial agent. The polymer and the beneficial agent are dissolved. The composition has a low viscosity, allowing for easy injection through standard hypodermic needles. | 06-23-2011 |

20130058895 | High Pressure Treatment of Aggregated Interferons - Methods are provided using high pressure to treat aggregated interferons, to reduce the aggregate content of interferon material. In particular, recombinant human interferon-β may be so treated. Multiple strategies may be used in combination to make nonglycosylated IFN-β more amenable to high pressure treatment. When coupled with purification techniques, these strategies singly or in combination provide a low aggregate or substantially aggregate free, biologically active solution. In certain aspects, pharmaceutical compositions containing nonglycosylated interferon having less than about 5 weight percent of protein aggregation are provided. | 03-07-2013 |
