Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to oral vaccine dosage forms and processes for producing the oral vaccine dosage forms. The dosage forms include lipid-based vesicles (e.g., virosomes, liposomes) harboring an immunogenic amount of at least one vaccinal target molecule, with or without adjuvant. Specifically, Applicants discovered a combination of the composition of the liquid virosome concentrates, the composition of the base matrix for the solid dosage form formulation (excluding the virosome concentrate), and the manufacturing conditions for the dosage forms that can produce a freeze dried sublingual dosage form having physical robustness, particle and antigen integrity and stability.

Abstract: Described herein is a method for forming multi-layer drug dosage forms having at least two layers. In the method, a first formulation comprising a non-gelling matrix forming agent and having a first density is dosed into a preformed mold. A second formulation comprising a non-gelling matrix former and having a second density not equal to the first density is subsequently dosed into the preformed mold. Then, the combination of the formulations dosed into the mold is freeze dried to form the multi-layer dosage form having at least two layers. The use of a density difference between the first and second formulations ensures formation of a product with two distinct layers.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to processes for reducing the endotoxin level in gelatin and the resulting gelatin with low endotoxin content. The process includes dissolving a salt in a gelatin solution and filtering the gelatin-salt solution using anion exchange to reduce the endotoxin level. After reducing the endotoxin level of the gelatin-salt solution, the low endotoxin gelatin-salt solution is desalted to remove the salt, thereby producing a low endotoxin gelatin solution.
