METHOD FOR STABILIZING BIOMOLECULES IN LIQUID FORMULATIONS.

摘要

The invention is directed to a stable formulation of a biologically active protein useful for aerosol delivery to the respiratory tract of a patient in need of treatment comprising: (a) a carrier liquid comprising from about 10 % to from about 100 % V/V water and from about 0 % to from about 90 % V/V of an organic liquid; (b) a biologically effective amount of a protein suspended or dissolved in a carrier liquid; and (c) a stabilizing effective amount of a derivatized carbohydrate stabilizing agent suspended or dissolved in said carrier liquid. The stable formulations of the invention may optionally contain about 0.1 % to about 5.0 % W/V of a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.
