Stable protein and nucleic acid formulations using non-aqueous, anhydrous, aprotic, hydrophobic, non-polar vehicles with low reactivity

   
   

This invention relates to stable non-aqueous formulations which are suspensions of proteinaceous substances or nucleic acids in non-aqueous, anhydrous, aprotic, hydrophobic, non-polar vehicles with low reactivity. More specifically, the present invention relates to stable protein or nucleic acid formulations wherein the compound remains in stable, dry powder form, yet the formulation is flowable and, therefore amenable to delivery to an animal via injection, transdermal administration, oral delivery or using an implantable device for sustained delivery. These stable formulations may be stored at elevated temperatures (e.g., 37.degree. C.) for long periods of time and are especially useful as flowable formulations which can be shipped and/or stored at high temperatures or in implantable delivery devices for long term delivery (e.g., 1-12 months or longer) of drug.

Esta invenção relaciona-se aos formulations non-aqueous estáveis que são suspensões de substâncias proteinaceous ou de ácidos nucleic em veículos non-aqueous, anhydrous, aprotic, hydrophobic, non-polar com reactivity baixo. Mais especificamente, a invenção atual relaciona-se aos formulations da proteína estável ou do ácido nucleic wherein o composto remanesce no formulário estável, seco do pó, contudo o formulation é de administração flowable e, conseqüentemente amenable à entrega a um animal através de injeção, transdermal, de entrega oral ou de usar um dispositivo implantable para a entrega sustentada. Estes formulations estáveis podem ser armazenados nas temperaturas elevated (por exemplo, 37.degree. C.) por períodos de tempo longos e seja especial útil como os formulations flowable que podem ser enviados e/ou armazenado em altas temperaturas ou em dispositivos implantable da entrega para a entrega a longo prazo (por exemplo, 1-12 meses ou mais longos) da droga.
