Contents
• Introduction of Liraglutide
Nordisk N, Leginus IJ. CHEMISTRY REVIEW NDA 206321 SaxendaTM (Liraglutide [rDNA origin] Injection)
For the Division of Metabolism and Endocrinology Products CHEMISTRY REVIEW #1.
LIMITATIONS of
PEPTIDE and
LIRAGLUTIDE
Limitation to the Use of Peptides
as Therapeutics
Low oral bioavailability and shorter half-life
2. Permeation enhancer
• Intestinal mucosa is a complex structure
• Enhance permeability across the mucosal walls
• Reversibly open up the tight junction
• Eg; chitosan, thiolated polymer, surfactant
• Drawback
dissolve bio-membrane leads to local inflammation
3. Mucoadhesive polymer
• Adhere to mucosal membrane of GIT
• Increases drug concentration gradient and resident time (reduce Cl)
• Avoid mucociliary clearance system, high bioavailability
• Formulated with enzyme inhibitor (better absorption)
• Eg; thiolated polymer, chitosan, alginate
4. Emulsion
• Decrease degradation and increase permeation
• Physiochemically unstable (immiscible liquids)
• How to overcome?
dry emulsion preparation
NOVEL approaches
1. Nano Carrier
• Drug to be delivered is encapsulated in the carrier and delivered to target area
• 2 types: polymer nanoparticle(NP) and solid-lipid NP
• Surface characteristic plays crucial role in crossing mucosal layer
+vely charged NP produces strong mucosal adhesion to –vely mucin glycoside
longer residence time in epithelial cell and increase intake
• Size of NP determine the uptake by M cell (preferred 20-100 nm, up to 500 nm) and
enterocytes (< 50 nm)
2. Microsphere
• Particle size ranging between 1-50 microns
• Prepared using synthetic or natural polymer (eg: polysaccharide chitosan)
• Protect proteins/peptides from enzymatic hydrolysis and acidic pH
• Control drug release at specific site through pH-sensitive polymer
3. Liposomes
• Can incorporate both hydrophilic and hydrophobic drug
• Encapsulates protein/peptide drugs in lipid core
• Attachment with Ab on the surface improve target specificity
• Advantages:
• Prevent degradation by oxidation/deamination
• Avoid first pass metabolism (taken up by lymphatic system to systemic circulation)
4. Modifying Peptide Structures
Biotynilation
• Peptide surface modification by biotin (Vitamin H)
• actively pass through the intestine membrane via sodium-dependent multivitamin transport
• Enhance absorption
• E.g : Lys26,34–biotin–GLP-1 proved oral hypoglycemic efficacy approximately 9 folds compared
to the native GLP-1
PEGylation
• Attaching polyethylene glycol (PEG) covalently to peptide
• preventing recognition and degradation by proteolytic enzymes, enhancing the stability,
potency of proteins and peptides
• PEG on biotinylated GLP-1 proves better in enhancing absorption and enzyme resistance than
just biotinylation
Lipidization
• Why need to increase lipophilicity ?
• Enhance oral bioavailability, protect from enzymatic degradation, increase absorption and stability
• The peptide will solubilize albumin or serum lipoprotein
• Enhance stability and circulatory half-life.
• E.g: The attachment of 1,3-dipalmitoylglycerol to insulin by an ester bond improves the intestinal
penetration and stability against enzymatic degradation.
