α-galactosidase A and 1-deoxygalactonojirimycin co-formulation
View Patent ↗The present application provides for compositions comprising α-galactosidase A in combination with an active site-specific chaperone for the α-galactosidase A, and methods for treating Fabry disease in a subject in need thereof, that includes a method of administering to the subject such compositions. The present application also provides methods for increasing the in vitro and in vivo stability of an α-galactosidase A enzyme formulation.
1. A pharmaceutical composition comprising a co-formulation of
between about 0.5 and about 20 μM α-galactosidase A; and
between about 200 and about 20,000 μM 1-deoxygalactonojirimycin, or
a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof,
wherein the pharmaceutical composition is formulated such that the pharmaceutical composition is suitable for parenteral administration to a subject.
2. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , wherein the α-galactosidase A is a recombinant human wild-type α-galactosidase A.
3. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , wherein the 1-deoxygalactonojirimycin is a hydrochloride salt of 1-deoxygalactonojirimycin.
4. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , wherein the pharmaceutical composition is formulated such that the pharmaceutical composition is suitable for intravenous administration.
5. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , wherein the α-galactosidase A is present at a concentration selected from the group consisting of about 1.2, 2, 4, 8, and 12 μM; and the 1-deoxygalactonojirimycin is present at a concentration selected from the group consisting of about 449, 1,495, 4,490, and 14,950 μM.
6. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , wherein the 1-deoxygalactonojirimycin and α-galactosidase A are present in a molar ratio of 1-deoxygalactonojirimycin to α-galactosidase A of between about 13,000:1 and about 50:1.
7. A method of treating Fabry disease in a subject comprising administering to the subject the pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 .
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the pharmaceutical composition is administered intravenously.
9. The method of claim 7 , wherein the pharmaceutical composition is administered as a dosage, wherein the dosage of α-galactosidase A is between about 0.1 and about 5 mg/kg, and the dosage of 1-deoxygalactonojirimycin is between about 0.1 and about 15 mg/kg.
10. The method of claim 7 , wherein the dosage of α-galactosidase A is selected from the group consisting of about 0.3, 0.5, 1, 2, and 3 mg/kg.
11. The method of claim 7 , wherein the dosage of 1-deoxygalactonojirimycin is selected from the group consisting of about 0.1, 0.3, 1, 3, and 10 mg/kg.
12. The method of claim 7 , wherein the dosage of α-galactosidase A is 1 mg/kg, and wherein the dosage of 1-deoxygalactonojirimycin is 3 mg/kg.
13. The method of claim 7 , wherein the pharmaceutical composition is administered in a dose sufficient to achieve a peak plasma concentration of α-galactosidase A at a time point between about 0.2 and about 5 hours after the administration of the dose.
14. The method of claim 7 , wherein the pharmaceutical composition is administered once per day, once every two days, once every three days, once every four days, once every five days, once every six days, or once every seven days.
15. The method of claim 7 , wherein the subject is a mammal.
16. The method of claim 7 , wherein the subject is a human.
