GALENIC FORMULATIONS FOR HUMAN STUDIES 

Compatibility and haemolytic potential (CD-98/6309T) 

The compatibility and haemolytic potential of IQB-9302.HCl formulated at five different concentrations, as shown below were evaluated: 

  • 0.10% IQB-9302.HCl in  0.9% saline >
  • 0.25% IQB-9302.HCl in 0.8% saline
  • 0.50% IQB-9302.HCl in 0.8% saline
  • 0.75% IQB-9302.HCl in 0.75% saline
  • 1.00% IQB-9302.HCl in 0.75% saline
For the compatibility test, the different concentrations of the test substance were placed in contact with plasma and serum from human and dogs 
The evaluation of haemolytic potential of the test substance was determined by placing whole heparinized blood from dogs and humans in contact. 

Results 
 

  • The compatibility test in dog and human serum demonstrated that the test substance IQB-9302.HCl formulated at the concentrations given above on mixing serum and each formulation in the ratio 1:1 was fully compatible with no turbidity, precipitation or formation of aggregates. 
No haemolytic activity was shown when whole heparined blood from dogs and humans was mixed in the ratio 1:1 with the different concentrations of the test substance IQB-9302 
  
GLPs: This study was carried out according to the Good Laboratory Practice regulations published by OCDE at Centro de Investigación y Desarrollo Aplicado S.A.L. Centro Industrial Santiga c/ Argenters 6. Santa Perpetua de Mogoda. Barcelona. Spain.

Accelerated Stability Study 

The following batches of IQB-9302.HCl were prerared for accelerated stability studies 

  • 0.10% IQB-9302.HCl in  0.9% saline
  • 0.25% IQB-9302.HCl in 0.8% saline
  • 0.50% IQB-9302.HCl in 0.8% saline
  • 0.75% IQB-9302.HCl in 0.75% saline
  • 1.00% IQB-9302.HCl in 0.75% saline
Solutions were used to fill 5 ml ampoules that were sealed and autoclaved a 121º C for 20 minutes. 
The following analytical controls were performed (HPLC analysis) 
 
Solution 0.10% 0.25% 0.50% 0.75% 1.00%
Fresh 100,0% 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% 100.0%

4 months in the dark  4ºC 98.2% 97.6% 100.1% 98.4% 100.0%
4 months in the dark  ambient 98.5% 100.1% 98.6% 97.2% 100.1%
4 months light ambient 99.3% 98.2% 100.0% 100.1% 99.6%
4 months in the dark 40ºC 99.5% 100,8% 100.8% 99.8% 98.3%
4 months in the dark 65ºC 98.5% 99.3% 100.6% 99.8 99.5
6 months in the dark 40ºC  98.6% 99.1% 99.6% 98.6% 99.6%
 
MANUFACTURING OF AMPOULES FOR CLINICAL TRIALS 

Laboratorios INIBSA is the manufacturer of batches of ampoules of IQB-9302. HCl,  bupivacaine.HCl and placebo needed for clinical trials. Production of ampoules is performed in sterile clean rooms according to standard SOPs designed by Laboratorios INIBSA to fulfil GMPs and GLPs. Figure 1 summarizes the manufacturing process. 

The detailed procedure of manufacturing for each of concentrations of IQB-9302.HCl,  bupivacaine.HCl and placebo is available (in spanish) 

Ingredients used in manufacturing IQB-9302.HCl,  Bupivacaine HCl and placebo injections are analyzed according to their corresponding monographs:
