Oral composition for treating inflammatory bowel diseases with tnfa antibodies
A recently filed patent (Publication Number: US20240000714A1) discloses a composition for oral administration containing antibodies specific to tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFa) and functional fragments thereof, formulated for treating inflammatory bowel disease in human patients. The treatment aims to decrease the pH in the large intestinal lumen of the patient, facilitating the uptake and penetration of the active agent into the gastrointestinal wall. The composition includes additives such as buffer agents and acidifiers, with the pH in the large intestinal lumen post-treatment ranging from 5.5 to 6.5.
Furthermore, the patent claims specify that the human patients targeted for this treatment may be in remission or have a mild to moderate form of inflammatory bowel disease. The composition may contain specific antibody fragments like Fab, F(ab')2, scFv, and others, and can be in solid dosage forms like pellets, granules, or tablets coated to prevent premature release of the active agent. The pH in the large intestinal lumen before treatment is noted to be higher than 6.5, with the desired pH range post-treatment falling between 5.7 to 6.3 or 5.9 to 6.1. The concentration of the anti-TNFa antibody or its functional fragment in the large intestinal lumen post-treatment is expected to be in the range of 0.2 to 0.8 mg/ml, highlighting the specificity and dosage considerations of the composition.
