Abstract
This work describes Part 2 of multi-dose formulation development of a Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Virus-Like Particles (VLPs) containing vaccine (see Part 1 in companion paper). Storage stability studies with candidate multi-dose formulations containing individual or combinations of seven different antimicrobial preservatives (APs) were performed with quadrivalent HPV VLP (6, 11, 16, 18) antigens adsorbed to aluminum-salt adjuvant (Alhydrogel®). Real-time (up to two years, 2-8°C) and accelerated (months at 25 and 40°C) stability studies identified eight lead candidates as measured by antigen stability (competitive ELISA employing conformational serotype-specific mAbs), antimicrobial effectiveness (modified European Pharmacopeia assay), total protein content (SDS-PAGE), and AP concentration (RP-UHPLC). The AH-adsorbed HPV18 VLP component was most sensitive to AP-induced destabilization. Optimal quadrivalent antigen storage stability while maintaining antimicrobial effectiveness was observed with 2-phenoxyethanol, benzyl alcohol, chlorobutanol, and 2-phenoxyethanol + benzyl alcohol combination. Interestingly, for single-AP containing multi-dose formulations, this rank-ordering of storage stability did not correlate with previously reported biophysical measurements of AP-induced antigen destabilization. Moreover, other APs (e.g., m-cresol, phenol, parabens) described by others for inclusion in multi-dose HPV VLP formulations showed suboptimal stability. These results suggest that each HPV VLP vaccine candidate (e.g., different serotypes, expression systems, processes, adjuvants) will require customized multi-dose formulation development.
