Download or read book Delivery Technologies for Biopharmaceuticals written by Lene Jorgensen and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2009-10-23 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advances in biotechnology have provided scientists with an increasing number of biopharmaceuticals such as novel peptide and protein drugs as well as nucleic acid based drugs for gene therapy. However, successful delivery of these biopharmaceuticals is a major challenge because their molecular properties lead to poor physical and chemical stability in the body and limited membrane permeability. Therefore researchers are developing a range of new delivery technologies and materials to enable these new drugs to be delivered intact to their target sites. Delivery Technologies for Biopharmaceuticals describes strategies to overcome the main barriers for successful delivery of therapeutic peptides, proteins, and nucleic acid-based drugs or vaccines related to the site of administration and the target site. Many of the approaches described are reported in formulations in current clinical trials as well as in marketed products. Contents include: challenges in delivery of biopharmaceuticals novel formulation approaches for peptide and protein injectables non-viral chemical vectors and viral technology for delivery of nucleic acid based drugs immune response, adjuvants and delivery systems for vaccines several examples of delivery systems for different biopharmaceuticals a critical assessment of delivery technologies for biopharmaceuticals Delivery Technologies for Biopharmaceuticals is an essential single-volume introduction to the technologies used by researchers to ensure efficient delivery of this exciting new class of drugs. It will be of value to researchers and students working in drug delivery, formulation, biopharmaceuticals, medicinal chemistry, and new materials development.

Book Biodegradable Polymeric Delivery Systems for Protein Subunit Vaccines

Download or read book Biodegradable Polymeric Delivery Systems for Protein Subunit Vaccines written by Michael John Heffernan and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The prevention and treatment of cancer and infectious diseases requires vaccines that can mediate cytotoxic T lymphocyte-based immunity. A promising strategy is protein subunit vaccines composed of purified protein antigens and immunostimulatory adjuvants, such as Toll-like receptor (TLR) agonists. In this research, we developed two new biodegradable polymeric delivery vehicles for protein antigens and TLR agonists, as model vaccine delivery systems. This work was guided by the central hypothesis that an effective vaccine delivery system would have stimulus-responsive degradation and release, biodegradability into excretable non-acidic degradation products, and the ability to incorporate various TLR-inducing adjuvants. The first vaccine delivery system is a cross-linked polyion complex micelle which efficiently encapsulates proteins, DNA, and RNA. The micelle-based delivery system consists of a block copolymer of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and poly(L-lysine), cross-linked by dithiopyridyl side groups to provide transport stability and intracellular release. The second delivery system consists of solid biodegradable microparticles encapsulating proteins, nucleic acids, and hydrophobic compounds. The microparticles are composed of pH-sensitive polyketals, which are a new family of hydrophobic, linear polymers containing backbone ketal linkages. Polyketals are synthesized via a new polymerization method based on the acetal exchange reaction and degrade into non-acidic, excretable degradation products. In addition, the technique of hydrophobic ion pairing was utilized to enhance the encapsulation of ovalbumin, DNA, and RNA in polyketal microparticles via a single emulsion method. Using in vitro and in vivo immunological models, we demonstrated that the micelle- and polyketal-based vaccine delivery systems enhanced the cross-priming of cytotoxic T lymphocytes. The model vaccines were composed of ovalbumin antigen and various TLR-inducing adjuvants including CpG-DNA, monophosphoryl lipid A, and dsRNA. The results demonstrate that the cross-linked micelles and polyketal microparticles have considerable potential as delivery systems for protein-based vaccines.

Book Biodegradable Microparticles as a Single Dose Delivery System for Ehrlichia Ruminantium Vaccines

Download or read book Biodegradable Microparticles as a Single Dose Delivery System for Ehrlichia Ruminantium Vaccines written by Ndavheleseni Phanuel Tshikhudo and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four 1H12 E. ruminantium open reading frames cloned into the pCMViUBs mammalian expression vector and used as a recombinant DNA vaccine against heartwater repeatedly provided complete protection in sheep (using a cocktail or the individual ORFs) against a laboratory needle challenge while 1/5 of sheep were protected after a natural tick challenge. The lack of protection under natural field conditions could be attributed to the delivery strategy used and therefore there is a need to investigate other delivery methods. Polymeric microparticles based on PLGA polymers have been used extensively to target the delivery of vaccine to antigen presenting cells, play a role in the induction of cellular immunity and can be used as a single dose vaccine mimicking prime/boost vaccination. In this study, the four 1H12 pCMViUBs_ORFs and their respective recombinant proteins were either encapsulated into or adsorbed onto microparticles using a modified double emulsion solvent evaporation technique. The particles were formulated to release DNA on day zero and day 21 and recombinant proteins on day 42 thus mimicking a two times DNA prime/recombinant protein-boost immunization strategy. Encapsulation did not have any detrimental effects on the stability of the recombinant proteins as determined by gel electrophoresis and western blotting. The in vitro incubation of microparticles in either a Float-A-Lyzer® dialyzer or an eppendorf tube showed the potential of microparticles to be used as a vaccine because of their release profiles that mimics a heterologous prime/boost immunization strategy. Microparticles formulated using polymers with low glycolide ratios released 80% of the encapsulated proteins within the first week of in vitro incubation with most of the proteins released on day 1. Microparticles formulated using polymers with 50:50 monomer ratios released the recombinant proteins during week 1 and 3 of in vitro incubation. These microparticles did not release any protein in week 2 (day 7-14). Microparticles with 0.5% cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) on their surfaces adsorbed DNA and released more than 40% of DNA on day 1 with 100% release by day 14. RG502H microparticles formed with PVA as the internal phase viscosity enhancer released intact DNA only from day 12 to day 21. A cocktail of these microparticles could therefore be used as an autobooster vaccine thus reducing the need for repeated immunizations needed to obtain protective immunity.

Book excerpt: This comprehensive volume compiles the concepts essential for the understanding of the pharmaceutical science and technology associated with the delivery of subunit vaccines. Twenty-one chapters are divided into four main parts: (I) Background; (2) Delivery Systems for Subunit Vaccines; (3) Delivery Routes, Devices and Dosage Forms; and (4) Pharmaceutical Analysis and Quality Control of Vaccines. Part one provide a basic background with respect to immunology and general vaccine classification. In part two, it presents representative types of vaccine delivery systems individually with focus on the physicochemical properties of the systems and their significance for the immune response they stimulate. These delivery systems include aluminum adjuvants, emulsions, liposomes, bilosomes, cubosomes/hexosomes, ISCOMs, virus-like particles, polymeric nano- and microparticles, gels, implants and cell-based delivery systems. Following these chapters, part three addresses the challenges associated with vaccine delivery via specific routes of administration—in particular subcutaneous, intramuscular, oral, nasal, pulmonary, transdermal and vaginal administration. Furthermore, the specific administration routes are discussed in combination with device technologies relevant for the respective routes as well as dosage forms appropriate for the device technology. Finally, the fourth part concerns pharmaceutical analysis and quality control of subunit vaccines.

Book Micro  and Nanotechnology in Vaccine Development

Download or read book Micro and Nanotechnology in Vaccine Development written by Mariusz Skwarczynski and published by William Andrew. This book was released on 2016-09-20 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive overview of how use of micro- and nanotechnology (MNT) has allowed major new advance in vaccine development research, and the challenges that immunologists face in making further progress. MNT allows the creation of particles that exploit the inherent ability of the human immune system to recognize small particles such as viruses and toxins. In combination with minimal protective epitope design, this permits the creation of immunogenic particles that stimulate a response against the targeted pathogen. The finely tuned response of the human immune system to small particles makes it unsurprising that many of the lead adjuvants and vaccine delivery systems currently under investigation are based on nanoparticles. Provides a comprehensive and unparalleled overview of the role of micro- and nanotechnology in vaccine development Allows researchers to quickly familiarize themselves with the broad spectrum of vaccines and how micro- and nanotechnologies are applied to their development Includes a combination of overview chapters setting out general principles, and focused content dealing with specific vaccines, making it useful to readers from a variety of disciplines
