Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop methods for quality control of humanized monoclonal antiboy (McAb) against vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF).METHODS The purity of humanized anti-VEGF McAb was determined by reduced and non-reduced sodium dodecyl sulfate capillary electrophoresis (CE-SDS), while the contents of monomer and polymer were determined by size-exclusive high performance liqud chromatography (SE-HPLC) at the concentration of 0.5 and 25.0 mg·mL-1, respectively. Isoelectric point was determined by isoelectric focusing capillary electrophoresis (cIEF), and the content of charge isomers was controled by cation exchange HPLC(CEX-HPLC). For identity, Lys-C digested peptide map was analyzed by RP-HPLC and LC-MS. The biological potency of anti-VEGF McAb was determined with a human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) proliferation inhibitory test. And other quality indexes required by the Ch.P and other relevant requirements were also investigated. RESULTS The purities of drug substance (DS) and products (DP) determined by reduced CE-SDS were (97.77±0.25)% and (97.43±0.57)%, respectively. The purities of DS and DP determined by non-reduced CE-SDS were (98.97±0.15)% and (98.73±0.06)%, respectively. In the SE-HPLC analysis, when the concentration of McAb was 0.5 mg·mL-1, the monomer contents of DS and DP were (98.07±0.55)% and (98.20±0.52)%, while the contents of polymer in DS and DP were (2.00±0.53)% and (1.93±0.55)% at the concentration of 25.0 mg·mL-1. In the CEX-HPLC analysis, the contents of the acidic, main, and basic components of DS and DP were (18.33±0.64)% and (18.60±0.44)%, (69.03±0.80)% and (69.20±0.44)%, (12.70±1.37)% and (12.20±0.87)%, respectively. In the cIEF and LC-MS tests, the DS and DP showed consistency in isoelectric point and peptide map with reference materials. The other quality indexes all met the requirements in Ch.P and other relevant requirements. CONCLUSION The mthods for quality control of McAb against VEGF is successfully developed, which can be used for the routine quality control of the product.
