PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS

摘要

The present invention relates to an ionic complex comprising a cationic polypeptide and an anionic excipient selected from: a PEG-carboxylic acid; a fatty acid having 10 or more carbon atoms; an anionic phospholipid; and a combination thereof. The invention also relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising the ionic complex of the invention and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The cationic polypeptide of the ionic complex has pharmacological activity and the complex can provide a more desirable pharmacokinetic profile for the cationic polypeptide of the complex as compared to the cationic polypeptide alone following administration. As such, the invention also relates to the use of the the ionic complex and pharmaceuctical composition comprising same to treat a subject suffering from a disease or disorder that is responsive to the cationic polypeptide of the ionic complex.
