C1-INH compositions and methods for the prevention and treatment of disorders associated with C1 esterase inhibitor deficiency
Compositions and methods for the treatment and/or prevention of disorders associated with C1 esterase inhibitor deficiency are disclosed.
1. A lyophilized pharmaceutical composition comprising Cl esterase inhibitor, sodium citrate, at least about 2000 U C1 esterase inhibitor and less than about 5000 U C1 esterase inhibitor for reconstitution in sterile water to prepare a solution with a concentration of 400-600 U/mL of C1-esterase inhibitor, the solution is suitable for subcutaneous administration to treat HAE, the sodium citrate has concentration of about 5 mM to about 15 mM, and the solution has a pH ranging from 6.5-8.0, and wherein the Cl esterase inhibitor comprises the amino acid sequence of residues 23 to 500 of SEQ ID NO: 1.
2. The lyophilized pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , wherein the lyophilized composition is reconstituted in sterile water to prepare a solution with a concentration of 500 U/mL of C1-esterase inhibitor.
3. The lyophilized pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , wherein the pH of the solution ranges from about 6.5 to about 7.5.
4. The lyophilized pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , wherein the pH of the solution ranges from about 6.5 to about 7.
5. The lyophilized pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , wherein the concentration of citrate in the solution is about 7 mM to about 13 mM.
6. The lyophilized pharmaceutical composition of claim 5 , wherein the concentration of citrate in the solution is about 10 mM.
7. A kit comprising the lyophilized pharmaceutical composition as defined in claim 1 .
8. A lyophilized pharmaceutical composition comprising Cl esterase inhibitor, sodium citrate, at least about 2000 U C1 esterase inhibitor and less than about 5000 U C1 esterase inhibitor for reconstitution in sterile water to prepare a solution with a concentration of 500 U/mL of C1-esterase inhibitor the solution is suitable for subcutaneous administration to treat HAE, the sodium citrate has concentration of about 5 mM to about 15 mM, and the solution has a pH ranging from 6.5-8.0, and wherein the C1 esterase inhibitor comprises the amino acid sequence of residues 23 to 500 of SEQ ID NO: 1.
