Abstract:
PURPOSE:To determine whether a Protected Graft Copolymer (PGC) containing fatty acid can be used as a stabilizing excipient for GLP-1 and whether PGC/GLP-1 given once a week can be an effective treatment for diabetes. METHODS:To create a PGC excipient, polylysine was grafted with methoxypolyethyleneglycol and fatty acid at the epsilon amino groups. We performed evaluation of the binding of excipient to GLP-1, the DPP IV sensitivity of GLP-1 formulated with PGC as the excipient, the in vitro bio-activity of excipient-formulated GLP-1, the in vivo pharmacokinetics of excipient-formulated GLP-1, and the efficacy of the excipient-formulated GLP-1 in diabetic rats. RESULTS:We showed reproducible synthesis of PGC excipient, high affinity binding of PGC to GLP-1, slowed protease degradation of excipient-formulated GLP-1, and that excipient-formulated GLP-1 induced calcium influx in INS cells. Excipient-formulated GLP-1 stays in the blood for at least 4 days. When excipient-formulated GLP-1 was given subcutaneously once a week to diabetic ZDF rats, a significant reduction of HbA1c compared to control was observed. The reduction is similar to diabetic ZDF rats given exendin twice a day. CONCLUSIONS:PGC can be an ideal in vivo stabilizing excipient for biologically labile peptides.
