Nanoparticle formulation of dactinomycin for treating mds
The granted patent US11975111B2 outlines a novel method for treating myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) through the administration of a composition that includes dactinomycin encapsulated in nanoparticles made from PLA-mPEG. The composition is designed to deliver a therapeutically effective amount of dactinomycin, with specific parameters including the encapsulating polymer comprising approximately 25% mPEG by weight and having a molecular weight of about 30,000 Da. The nanoparticles are characterized by an average size ranging from 100 nm to 200 nm, and the administration of this composition aims to achieve a peak plasma concentration (Cmax) of dactinomycin between 1 ng/mL and 20 ng/mL.
Additionally, the claims detail that the composition may include a surfactant, specifically polyvinyl alcohol, and can contain dactinomycin in a weight percentage of 5% to 15%. The method also allows for the inclusion of other chemotherapeutic agents, such as topoisomerase inhibitors, platinum-based therapies, anthracycline antibiotics, taxanes, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, nucleoside analogs, FLT3 inhibitors, and hypermethylation inhibitors. The patent specifies that these additional drugs can be included in various molar ratios relative to dactinomycin, ranging from 7:1 to less than 1:1, providing flexibility in treatment combinations for patients with MDS.
