High-Throughput In-Use and Stress Size Stability Screening of Protein Therapeutics Using Algorithm-Driven Dynamic Light Scattering.
Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences 2018 August
Stability of therapeutic proteins (TPs) is a critical quality attribute that impacts both safety and efficacy of the drug. Size stability is routinely performed during and after biomanufacturing. Dynamic light scattering (DLS) is a commonly used technique to characterize hydrodynamic size of the TPs. Herein, we have developed a novel method to evaluate in-use and thermal stress stability of TPs using algorithm-driven high-throughput DLS. Five marketed TPs were tested under the guidance of customized algorithms. The TPs were evaluated at relevant temperature conditions as well as under dilution and thermal stress for size stability. We found that the TPs were stable under the in-use conditions tested; however, sample loss due to evaporation can lead to large protein aggregates. A combined assessment of autocorrelation function and photos of sample well could be useful in formulation screening. Dilution of TPs also has an impact on the hydrodynamic size. Thermal stress experiments showed the importance of using different data processing methods to access size distribution. Polydispersity index was useful in evaluating sample heterogeneity. Herein, we show that algorithm-driven high-throughput DLS can provide additional supportive information during and after biomanufacturing and the potential to be used in a quality control environment.
