  • Patent number: 10780148
    Abstract: The invention provides compositions containing hemoglobin, particularly PEGylated hemoglobin. The PEGylated hemoglobin molecule is capable of transferring oxygen or carbon monoxide bound thereto to a tissue with which it is in proximity. Exemplary PEGylated hemoglobin formulations of the invention are virally inactivated. Various compositions of the invention include deoxygenated hemoglobin, which may be conjugated with one or more water-soluble polymer. PEGylated hemoglobin includes those species in which the iron atom of the hemoglobin molecule is not bound to oxygen or any other species, and hemoglobin molecules in which a species other than oxygen, e.g., carbon monoxide, is bound to the iron atom. The compositions of the invention are formulated as hypo-, iso- or hypertonic solutions of the PEGylated hemoglobin. The compositions are of use to treat and/or ameliorate disease, injury and insult by providing for the oxygenation of tissues and/organs.
