Glp-1 analog fusion protein formulations

The invention provides a stable solution formulation comprising a GLP-1-Fc fusion at a pH between about pH 6 and about pH 8.5. analogs fused to specific IgG4-Fc derivatives. These formulations provide unexpected and considerably greater chemical stability than when compared to GLP-1-Fc fusions at a...

More Information
Summary:The invention provides a stable solution formulation comprising a GLP-1-Fc fusion at a pH between about pH 6 and about pH 8.5. analogs fused to specific IgG4-Fc derivatives. These formulations provide unexpected and considerably greater chemical stability than when compared to GLP-1-Fc fusions at a pH outside the described ranges. The formulations comprising a GLP-1-Fc fusion are useful in treating diabetes, obesity, irritable bowel syndrome and other conditions that would be benefited by lowering plasma glucose, inhibiting gastric and/or intestinal motility and inhibiting gastric and/or intestinal emptying, or inhibiting food intake.
