Description

PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITION OF NON-ENVELOPED VIRUS

Field of the invention

The présent invention relates to the field of pharmaceuticals, gene therapy and medicine, specifically to pharmaceutical compositions of a vector based on a recombinant non-enveloped virus, in particular the recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV), which compositions may be used for the treatment and prévention of varions diseases.

Background of the invention

Typical représentatives of non-enveloped viruses are parvoviruses, noroviruses, as well as rotaviruses and adenoviruses.

Simple or non-enveloped viruses consist of a nucleic acid and a protein envelope called a capsid. The capsid consists of repeating morphological subunits called capsomers. The nucleic acid and the capsid interact with each other to form a nucleocapsid. In each virus, oligomérization of capsid proteins during capsid assembly typically leads to a certain type of symmetrical quatemary structure. Most viruses hâve capsids of spiral or icosahedral structure (Lidmar J, Mirny L, Nelson Dr. Virus shapes and buckling transitions in spherical shells. Phys Rev E Stat Nonlin Soft Matter Phys. 2003 Nov;68(5 Pt 1):051910. doi: 10.1 l03/PhysRevE.68.05l9l0. Epub 2003 Nov25. PMID: 14682823).

Unlike non-enveloped viruses, the capsid of enveloped viruses is covered by a lipid membrane known as a supercapsid. The envelope is acquired by the capsid from an intracellular membrane in the virus' host; examples include the inner nuclear membrane, the Golgi apparatus membrane, and the cell's outer membrane. The presence of a lipid envelope makes viruses less résistant to physical and Chemical stresses (Alberts B, Bray D, Lewis J, Raff M, Roberts K, Watson JD (1994). Molecular Biology of the Cell (4th ed.). p. 280).

The capsid of non-enveloped viruses perforais the function of protecting the genome during long-term storage, as well as from Chemical and physical stresses, such as UV radiation, extreme pH or températures, proteolytic and nucleolytic agents. Non-enveloped viruses may retain their properties in a dried State for a long time on various surfaces, both porous and non-porous (Abad FX, Pinto RM, Bosch A. Survival of enteric viruses on environmental fomites. Appl Environ Microbiol. 1994 Oct;60(l0):3704-10. doi: 10.1128/aem.60.10.3704-3710.1994. PMID: 7986043; PMCID: PMC201876).

Viruses stably introduce genetic material thereof into the genome of a host cell, so it was proposed to use them as vectors for delivering genetic information to cells. Vectors based on^z 1 retrovirus, adenovirus, adenoassociated virus (AAV), herpes simplex virus, etc. are employed. Among these viruses, adenovirus and AAV refer to non-enveloped viruses.

Vectors based on recombinant AAV and recombinant adenovirus are currently the most widely used and developed gene therapy products, and they are further used in vaccine development.

Currently, gene therapy is considered as a potentially universal approach to treatment of almost the entire spectrum of diseases: infectious diseases, genetic diseases, malignant neoplasms, etc.

Viruses or viral vectors (viral particles) must maintain structural integrity thereof in order to be infectious and biologically active. The structural integrity of a viral vector is typically destructed during préparation of vaccines or products containing the viral vector, which excludes usage thereof as a delivery vector.

Viral vector products are produced in a frozen form, requiring a storage température below -20 °C, often even below -80 °C. Lyophilisâtes solve this problem, having an optimal storage and transportation température régime of 2-8 °C. Also, lyophilization is widely used to improve the stability of various viral vaccines and products containing a recombinant virus vector.

The prior art provides lyophilized pharmaceutical compositions of AAV (WO2018/128689, WO2020/014479, WO2020/214929), lyophilized pharmaceutical compositions of adenovirus (WO00/29024, WO2017/013169, WO2018/103601).

However, lyophilisâtes are typically relatively expensive, since they require large time and material costs to be produced, and the biological activity of a viral vector may be lost to a certain extent during lyophilization and reconstitution of the lyophilisate. In addition, residual water (moisture) content in the end product significantly affects viral vector stability during storage.

Thus, there is a need for stable pharmaceutical compositions comprising a recombinant nonenveloped virus vector, including pharmaceutical compositions that allow obtaining a stable lyophilized dosage form without loss of biological activity of the viral vector, as well as with minimal lyophilization time.

Detailed description of the invention

The authors of the présent invention surprisingly found that the addition of hydroxypropylbeta-cyclodextrin increases the glass transition température of a pharmaceutical composition comprising a recombinant non-enveloped virus vector during freeze-drying, which fact allows to reduce the duration of the freeze-drying process, reduce residual water content in the lyophilisate, thus resulting in the production of a lyophilized pharmaceutical composition comprising a recombinant non-enveloped virus vector, which composition has stability during storage (for^ 2 example, during long-term storage). The authors of the présent invention also surprisingly found that the above formulation and the lyophilisate production process make it possible to maintain the activity of the recombinant non-enveloped virus vector unchanged for a long time. Also, the authors of the présent invention surprisingly found that the prelyophilization solution (an aqueous pharmaceutical composition) is stable and may act as a finished dosage form.

Définitions

Unless defined otherwise herein, ail technical and scientific terms used in connection with the présent invention will hâve the same meaning as is commonly understood by those skilled in the art.

Furthermore, unless otherwise required by context, singular terms shall include plural terms, and the plural terms shall include the singular terms.

As used in the présent description and claims that follow, unless otherwise dictated by the context, the words include and comprise, or variations thereof such as includes, including, comprises, or comprising, will be understood to imply the inclusion of a stated integer or group of integers but not the exclusion of any other integer or group of integers.

The term pharmaceutical composition refers to a composition and/or formulation comprising the nonenveloped virus vector in a therapeutically effective amount and excipients or auxilliary substances (carriers, diluents, fillers, solvents, etc.), the choice and proportions of which dépend on the type and route of administration and dosage.

The term aqueous composition as used herein refers to a water-based composition, the water in the composition may be: water, water for injections, physiologie saline (0.9%-l.0% aqueous solution of sodium chloride).

The term freeze-dried as used herein refers to a formulation that has been subjected to a process known in the art as freeze-drying, which includes freezing the formulation followed by removal of ice from the frozen contents.

The pharmaceutical composition is stable if the active agent retains physical stability and/or Chemical stability and/or biological activity thereof during the specified shelf life at storage température, for example, of 2-8 °C. Further, the active agent may retain both physical and Chemical stability, as well as biological activity. Storage period is adjusted based on the results of stability test in accelerated or natural aging conditions.

The term vector as used herein means a nucleic acid molécule capable of transporting another nucleic acid to which it has been linked.

The term “long-term storage” or “long term stability” should be understood to mean that a pharmaceutical composition may be stored for three months or more, for six months or more, for one year or more, and the composition may hâve a minimum stable shelf life of at least two years as well. Generally speaking, the terms long term storage and long term stability further include stable storage durations that are at least comparable to or better than the stable shelf life typically required for currently available commercial formulations, without losses in stability that would render the formulation unsuitable for its intended pharmaceutical application.

The term buffering agent refers to an acid or base component (typically a weak acid or weak base) of the buffer or buffer solution. A buffering agent helps to maintain the pH value of a given solution at or near to a pre-determined value, and the buffering agents are generally chosen to complément the pre-determined value. A buffering agent may be a single compound which gives rise to a desired buffering effect, especially when said buffering agent is mixed with (and suitably capable of proton exchange with) an appropriate amount (depending on the predetermined value desired) of corresponding acid/base conjugate thereof.

The term “buffer” or “buffer solution” refers to an aqueous solution comprising a mixture of an acid (typically a weak acid, such as e.g. acetic acid, citric acid) and a conjugated base thereof (such as e.g. an acetate or citrate sait, e.g. sodium acetate, sodium citrate, as well as hydrates of said salts, e.g. sodium acetate trihydrate) or alternatively a mixture of a base (typically a weak base, e.g. histidine) and a conjugated acid thereof (e.g. histidine hydrochloride or histidine hydrochloride monohydrate or L-histidine hydrochloride (h/c) monohydrate (m/h) or L-histidine h/c m/h or histidine h/c m/h). The pH value of a “buffer solution” changes only slightly upon addition thereto of a small quantity of strong base or strong acid, as well as upon dilution or concentration due to the “buffering effect” imparted by a “buffering agent”.

Typically, amino acids are L-amino acids. For example, if histidine and histidine hydrochloride monohydrate are used, it is typically L-histidine and L-histidine hydrochloride monohydrate. For example, if arginine is used, it is typically L-arginine. Amino acid équivalents, for example, pharmaceutically acceptable proline salts (for example, proline hydrochloride) may also be used.

The described pharmaceutical compositions are suitable for delivering therapeutic agents to subjects for the treatment or prévention of various diseases or disorders. They may be used in gene therapy for the treatment of diseases such as hemophilia A, hemophilia B, malignant neoplasms, spinal muscular atrophy, etc., as well as in the development of vaccines for the prévention of, for example, infectious diseases.

The pharmaceutical compositions according to the invention may comprise the recombinant non-enveloped virus vector at various concentrations. The concentration of the viral vector may dépend, for example, on the disease to be prevented or treated using the above pharmaceutical compositions, as well as on the âge, weight and State of health of the patient, and thus may vary from patient to patient. A suitable dose can be adjusted by the decision of the attending physician so that it can be administered to the patient once or through several injections.

In some embodiments of the invention, the recombinant non-enveloped virus vector is présent at a concentration of l.0*10⁵ - 1.0*10¹⁴ viral genomes/ml, or 1.0*10⁹ - 1.0*10¹⁴ viral genomes/ml, or 1.0*10⁹ - 5.0*10¹³ viral genomes/ml, or 1.0*10⁹ - 1.0*10¹³ viral genomes/ml, or (1.0 ± 0.5)* 10⁵ viral genomes/ml, or (1.0 ± 0.5)* 10⁶ viral genomes/ml, or (1.0 ± 0.5)*10⁷ viral genomes/ml, or (1.0 ± 0.5)* 10⁸ viral genomes/ml, or (1.0 ± 0.5)* 10⁹ viral genomes/ml, or (1.0 ± 0.5)*10¹⁰ viral genomes/ml, or (1.0 ± 0.5)*10ⁿ viral genomes/ml, or (1.0 ± 0.5)*10¹² viral genomes/ml, or (1.0 ± 0.5)* 10¹³ viral genomes/ml, or (1.0 ± 0.5)*10¹⁴ viral genomes/ml.

The recombinant non-enveloped viruses in the above pharmaceutical compositions may be rAAV, recombinant adenoviruses and other types of recombinant non-enveloped viruses.

The recombinant adenovirus vector may be produced using any species, strain, serotype or any combination of species, strains or serotypes of adenovirus or chimeric adenovirus. Human adenovirus serotypes include any of the serotypes 2, 4, 5, 7, 11, 26, 34, 35, 36, 48, 49 or 50 or combinations thereof, dérivatives, modifications or pseudotypes.

In some embodiments of the invention, the recombinant non-enveloped virus vector is a rAAV vector. It may be produced using any strain, AAV serotype (for example, AAV1, AAV2, AAV3, AAV4, AAV5, AAV6, AAV7, AAV8, AAV9, AAV10, AAV11, AAV12, AAV13, AAV 14, AAV 15 and AAV 16) or any combination of strains, serotypes (for example, a rAAV vector that includes two or more serotypes); may contain an AAV capsid protein (capsid) of any serotype (AAV1, AAV2, AAV3, AAV4, AAV5, AAV6, AAV7, AAV8, AAV9, AAV10, AAV11, AAV 12, AAV 13, AAV 14, AAV 15 and AAV 16) or combinations thereof, dérivatives, modifications or pseudotypes.

In some embodiments of the invention, the rAAV vector comprises a AAV5 or AAV9 capsid.

In some embodiments of the invention, the AAV5 or AAV9 capsid may be a modified capsid.

The rAAV vector may be modified genetically and/or chemically.

The rAAV vector may be genetically modified to produce rAAV vectors with altered receptor usage, antigenicity, transduction efficiency and/or tissue tropism, and to insert peptide ligands, antibodies, antibody fragments, MHC (major histocompatibility complex) and/or receptors into the viral capsid. For example, the rAAV vector may be genetically modified by introducing one or more amino acid mutations, such as point mutations.

The phrase more point mutations refers to two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, or ten point substitutions.

Particularly preferred embodiments include substitutions (mutations) that are conservative in nature, i.e. substitutions that take place within a family of amino acids that are joined in their side chains. In particular, amino acids are typically divided into four families: (1) acidic amino acids are aspartate and glutamate; (2) basic amino acids are lysine, arginine, histidine; (3) nonpolar amino acids are alanine, valine, leucine, isoleucine, proline, phenylalanine, méthionine, tryptophan, and (4) uncharged polar amino acids are glycine, asparagine, glutamine, cysteine, serine, threonine, tyrosine. Phenylalanine, tryptophan, and tyrosine are sometimes classified as aromatic amino acids. For example, it is reasonably predictable that an isolated substitution of leucine for isoleucine or valine, an aspartate for a glutamate, a threonine for a serine, or a similar conservative substitution of an amino acid for a structurally related amino acid, will not hâve a major effect on the biological activity. For example, the polypeptide of interest may include up to about 5-10 conservative or non-conservative amino acid substitutions, so long as the desired function of the molécule remains intact.

A variant of point mutations in the sequences of AAV proteins VP1, VP2, or VP3 using amino acid substitutions is a substitution of at least one amino acid residue in the AAV protein VP1, VP2, or VP3 with another amino acid residue.

Conservative substitutions are shown in Table A under preferred substitutions.

For example, the international application WO2012/145601 describes adeno-associated virus (AAV) virions with variant capsid protein, where the AAV virions exhibit greater infectivity of retinal cells, when administered via intravitreal injection, compared to wild-type AAV. The international application WO2013/158879 describes an adenoassociated virus (AAV) vector for delivering to a subject a heterologous nucleic acid sequence comprising the VP1 capsid protein comprising one or more lysine substitutions, wherein one lysine substitution is K137R, wherein said lysine substitution is effective for inhibiting ubiquitination of said capsid protein, thereby increasing transduction efficiency of said AVV vector in target cells.

The rAAV vector may be chemically modified to alter tissue tropism. Also, chemically modified rAAV-based vectors may exhibit altered receptor usage, antigenicity, transduction efficiency, and/or tissue tropism. Chemically modified rAAV vectors are created by using, for example, chemoselective reactions which may target spécifie side chains of amino acids, may be used to change the charge, polarity, hydrophobicity and potential of hydrogen bonds inside the receptor binding domains on AAV capsids.

Examples

The following examples are provided for better understanding of the invention. These examples are for purposes of illustration only and are not to be construed as limiting the scope of the invention in any manner.

Ail publications, patents, and patent applications cited in this spécification are incorporated herein by reference. Although the foregoing invention has been described in detail by way of illustration and example for purposes of clarity of understanding, it will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art in light of the teachings of this invention that certain changes and modifications may be made thereto without departing from the spirit or scope of the appended embodiments.

Methods

1. Détermination of thermal transitions by differential scanning calorimetry.

Thermal transitions were determined by differential scanning calorimetry on the DSC4000 differential scanning calorimeter, Perkin Elmer, USA, in capped Steel crucibles with rubber rings. The test used 50 μΐ of the sample. An excipient solution or a process solution was used as the test solution. Température transitions were studied in the range from (25)°C to (-85)°C in incréments in the range of 0.5 - 10 °C/min. The phase transition températures were determined using the Pyris Sériés DSC 4000 software.

2. Détermination of water content.

Water content was measured by the K.Fischer method according to RF SP GM.1.2.3.0002.15.

3. Détermination of concentration of viral genomes (GFP gene) in the AAV product by PCR.

The concentration of the GFP gene in the AAV product was determined by quantitative polymerase chain reaction using a forward, reverse primer and a probe conjugated with FAM dye and BHQ1 quencher. The primers are matched to a région of the gene encoding the GFP protein. During sample préparation, the sample was fïrst treated with DNAase in order to get rid of residual plasmid DNA, then with protéinase in order to destroy the capsid. A linearized plasmid (pAAVGFP CellBioLab) was used to plot a calibration line. To plot a calibration line of log concentration as a function of number of cycles (Ct), standards with an incrément of 10 were used. The concentration of viral genomes/ml (vg/ml) or copies/ml in the product was determined by the calibration line of log concentration as a function of Ct.

4. Détermination of concentration of viral particles by enzyme immunoassay.

Concentration of viral vector particles (adeno-associated virus (AAV) capsids) was measured by means of enzyme immunoassay using commercial kits: PROGEN AAV5 titration ELISA and PROGEN AAV9 titration ELISA.

High binding 96-well plates are coated with anti-AAV capsid binding monoclonal mouse antibodies recognizing the conformational epitope of a particular serotype. AAV capsid proteins bind to antibodies under température incubation, unbound components of the sample are removed by washing the plate multiple times.

Biotinylated antibodies that bind to AAV capsid proteins under température incubation of the plate were used as detecting antibodies. The unbound components are removed by washing the plate multiple times.

Streptavidin-horseradish peroxidase conjugate was applied to detect the color. Streptavidin bound to biotin, unbound components were removed by washing the plate multiple times.

Tetramethylbenzidine acts as a chromogen. Interaction of horseradish peroxidase, hydrogen peroxide and tetramethylbenzidine chromogen develops a color reaction. EIA reaction was stopped by adding a stop solution (1 normal H2SO4), and the optical density of the solutions in the wells was measured at a wavelength of 450 nm. The concentration of viral vector particles in the product was determined by a calibration graph plotted using optical density data of standard solutions with known concentration of AAV particles.

5. Détermination of functional activity of the product based on recombinant adenoassociated viral vector comprising the GFP gene.

Transduction activity of the product based on the recombinant adeno-associated viral vector comprising the GFP gene was measured by GFP expression in product-induced CHO-K1 cells.

For transduction, on the day of analysis, the CHO-Kl cells were plated into 24-well plates in a growth medium with an antibiotic (MQD - medium for quantitative détermination) at the rate of IxlO⁴ cells per cm² (19,000 cells per well) and incubated at a température of +37 °C in an atmosphère with 5% CO₂ for 4-8 h for attachment of the cells to plastic surface. The test samples at 3 doses, 3 replicates for each, were then introduced into the wells with cells. Product dosages (MOI) for each AAV serotype were pre-selected so as to obtain, following transduction, about 5, 10 and 20% of GFP-positive cells, respectively. Product volume required for transduction of a well was calculated using the following formula:

. _ MOIxSxK ^— c ’ where V is the required product volume per well (ml), S is the area of one well (cm²), MOI is the required dose of the product, multiplicity of infection K is cell seeding density in the wells (cells/cm²), C is the concentration of genome-containing capsids in the product (vg/ml).

The plates with transduced cells were incubated in a CO2 incubator (5% CO 2, +37 °C) for 2-3 days. Following the incubation period, culture fluid was collected from the wells, the cells were washed with Hanks solution, and the cells were removed from the plastic using TrypLE solution (at 150 μΐ/well). After detaching the cells from the plastic, Hanks solution (1:1 with TrypLE) was introduced into the wells, the cells were collected into 1.5 ml microtubes and centrifuged for 5 min at 300g. The cell precipitate was resuspended in 150 μΐ of Hanks solution. 50 ml of a working dye solution for détermination of viable cells in Hanks solution was added to each sample, except for 1 isotype control well, the cells were incubated for 20 minutes in the dark at room température. The stained cells were centrifuged for 5 minutes at 300g, the supematant was carefully selected and 100 μΐ of BD Cytofix fixing buffer was added to each sample. The cells were resuspended, and the entire volume of the resulting cell suspension was transferred into a 96well V-bottom plate for flow cytometer, the plate with cells was incubated for 20 minutes in the dark at room température. Following the incubation period, the plate was centrifuged for 5 minutes at 1200 rpm, a fixing buffer was collected, and the cells were washed with Stain Buffer (PBS with 0.1% Sodium azide and 0.5% BSA) at 100 μΐ/well. The plate was centrifuged again and the buffer was collected, following which Stain Buffer was introduced at 150 μΐ/well and the cells were carefully resuspended.

The cells were analyzed on a flow cytometer. Cell viability and GFP expression were evaluated. The value of FA (functional activity) or TU (transduction unit)/ml was calculated for each product dose according to the following formula: PxN „ where P is the number of GFP-positive viable cells as a percentage, N is the number of initially plated cells (N=SxK), V is the introduced volume of the product per well (ml), D is the product predilution factor.

The mean TU value for 3 product doses was considered the final resuit.

6. Préparation of formulations.

Samples with the target content of viral genomes were prepared in Stirred Cell (Millipore) concentration cells under pressure. To this end, the initial solution formulation containing viral particles was placed in a diafiltration container, then at least 10-fold volume of an aqueous solution with the target formulation including buffering, osmotic agents and, if necessary, additional watersoluble stabilizers was introduced into the cell. Following diafiltration process, the solution was concentrated to an optical density exceeding the target density, unloaded from the instrument, the exact optical density was determined by UV spectrophotometry and the concentration of viral genomes was determined by PCR. An appropriate solution of excipients was then added to the sample to préparé a solution with target viral genome content.

Also, samples of solutions containing viral particles were obtained in Pellicon (Millipore) cassettes in the tangential flow mode. To this end, the initial solution formulation was placed in a diafiltration tank, then at least 10-fold volume of the solution with the target formulation comprising buffering, osmotic agents, and, if necessary, additional water soluble stabilizers was supplied to the System. The concentrate of osmotic agents and water-soluble stabilizers may altematively be added following diafiltration. Following the diafiltration process, the solution was concentrated to an optical density exceeding the target density, unloaded from the System and the exact values of the optical density and concentration of viral genomes were determined. An appropriate solution of excipients was then added to the sample to préparé a solution with target viral genome content.

When preparing formulations comprising solubilizers, the surfactant concentrâtes were added to the solution following diafiltering and concentrating with the final dilution to the target viral genome content with a solution of excipients.

Before aseptie filling in the final container (for example, a glass/plastic vessel, vial or syringe), the solution was filtered using a 0.22 pm membrane.

Example 1. Lyophilization of formulations.

We performed freeze-drying of the formulations according to the following scheme: Freezing - duration up to 300 minutes, température up to -70°C. Initial drying - duration up to 4000 min, température from -40°C to 40°C. Vacuum from 0 mbar to 0.25 mbar. Secondary drying duration up to 4000 min, température from 0°C to 40°C. Vacuum from 0 to 0.25 mbar. Each of the steps included one or more stages.

Example 2. Sélection of formulations to optimize the freeze-drying mode.

Optimization was aimed at reducing the duration of the freeze-drying process, as well as at reducing residual water content in the lyophilisate. For this purpose, it is suggested to approbate a number of formulations, followed by measurement of the glass transition température.

It is known that the addition of sodium chloride to a formulation helps to reduce the glass transition température of the formulation (Electrolyte-induced changes in glass transition température of freeze-concentrated solutés, Pharmaceutical Research, vol. 12, no.5, 1995). However, this component is an effective stabilizer for viral particles, prevents aggregation thereof and cannot be excluded from the formulation (Pharmaceutical Development of AAV-Based Gene Therapy Products for the Eye. Gérard A. Rodrigues & Evgenyi Shalaev & Thomas K. Karami & James Cunningham & Nigel K. H. Slater & Hongwen M. Rivers, Pharm Res (2019) 36: 29.

The freeze-drying process is most effective when setting and maintaining the température of a freeze-dryer shelf at upper limits of System and product stability. Thus, the température should be set at a level that is a few degrees below the collapse température. Collapse means a process in which structures created during freeze drying are destroyed when passing the sublimation phase séparation boundary. This may lead not only to altered functional properties of the lyophilisate, but also to decreased efficiency of freeze drying because of blocked évaporation pathways, resulting in unevenly retained and distributed moisture.

The resulting substance in the final excipient solution is an amorphous mixture. Glass transition température is the température at which a non-crystallizable substance or a substance that does not hâve time to crystallize becomes solid, passing into a glassy State. The collapse température of solutions is typically 1-3 °C higher than the glass transition température. Thus, the higher the glass transition température, the higher the température can be set for the shelves, resulting in accelerated freeze drying process.

The following excipients were selected for screening: tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (buffering agent, maintenance of the required pH level), sodium chloride (stabilizer, osmolytic), magnésium chloride hexahydrate (stabilizer), trehalose dihydrate (stabilizer, osmolytic, lyoprotector), poloxamer pl88 (solubilizer), polyvinylpyrrolidone K-30 (stabilizer), polyvinylpyrrolidone K-90 (stabilizer), sulfobutyl-ether-beta-cyclodextrin sodium sait (stabilizer, lyoprotector), hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (stabilizer, lyoprotector), L-histidine (bufferring agent, maintenance of the required pH level, stabilizer), L-arginine (bufferring agent, maintenance of the required pH level, stabilizer).

The results of détermination of glass transition températures for test excipient solutions are shown in Table 2.

According to the results, it was found that hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin significantly increases the glass transition température of a mixture comprising sodium chloride.

Further development was aimed at determining the optimal ratio of the contents of 5 trehalose dihydrate, hydroxypropyl beta-cyclodextrin and sodium chloride, as well as evaluating the applicability of L-histidine and L-arginine buffer solutions to produce a lyophilic form. The study was performed for samples containing approximately Ix¹⁰'¹¹ vg/ml of recombinant AAV5 comprising the GFP gene in a complété 3-factor mixture design experiment with two levels and the central point repeated 3 times. The concentration of trehalose dihydrate (from 0.0 to 100.0 10 mg/ml), sodium chloride (from 3.0 to 12.0 mg/ml) and the concentration of hydroxypropyl-betacyclodextrin (from 0.0 to 100.0 mg/ml) were studied as quantitative factors. Poloxamer 188 (in the range of 0.05 - 2.0 mg/ml) and magnésium chloride hexahydrate (in the range of 0.15 - 0.70 mg/ml) do not hâve a statistically significant effect on the glass transition température.

The results of the experiment are shown in Table 3.
