IFN-β liquid formulations
View Patent ↗Interferon-beta liquid formulations stabilized with a polyol, a non-reducing sugar or a amino acid. In particular, the formulations are stabilized with a polyol, such as mannitol. The formulations, preferably, furthermore comprise a buffer, such as acetate buffer, at a pH comprised between 3.0 and 4.0 and human albumin at a minimum quantity. The interferon-beta is preferably recombinant.
