Abstract: Provided is a method for preparing a conjugate by linking a physiologically active polypeptide, a non-peptidyl polymer linker, and an immunoglobulin constant region via a covalent bond. The method for efficiently preparing the physiologically active polypeptide conjugate uses a salt in a coupling reaction to solve the problem of low production yield during preparation of the physiologically active polypeptide conjugate. The conjugate of physiologically active polypeptide-non-peptidyl polymer-immunoglobulin constant region can be produced with high purity and yield by the subject method. Due to the method for preparing the physiologically active polypeptide conjugate, production costs can be reduced. Therefore, the method can be used to develop long-acting formulations of physiologically active polypeptides, which have improved industrial applicability and drug regulation compliance.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a hard capsule composite formulation comprising a capsule having a hemispherical closure at each end and an interior space; and one or more tablets encapsulated in the capsule, wherein the tablet or the tablets as a whole have a shape conforming to the internal space of the capsule. The hard capsule composite formulation can efficiently charge pharmaceutical compositions inside the limited interior space of the capsule, and hence, it allows packing a high-dose of pharmaceutical composition in a relatively small-sized capsule, which increases productivity and patient compliance. Also, the composite formulation exhibits good dissolution rate because pharmaceutically active ingredients contained in the capsule are separated from one another, and thus, the ingredients are less affected by the dissolution rate of one another, allowing good storage stability which can optimize the therapeutic effects.
