  • Patent number: 8575096
    Abstract: The invention is related to fast acting insulin analogues which can form soluble mix-tures (pre-mixed or self-mixed) with long acting insulin analogues. The fast action is achieved through monomerizing substitutions/deletions in the C-terminus of the B-chain of human insulin and the mixability with long acting insulin analogues is achieved through a substitution of the Zn-binding His in position B10 of human insulin with a Gln amino acid residue. In one embodiment the invention is related to fast acting insulin analogues in which at least one of the natural amino acid residues in position B22-B30 in the human B-chain has been substituted with another amino acid residue having the effect of promoting formation of the monomeric form of insulin, the His amino acid residue in position 10 in the B-chain is substituted with a Gln and wherein further one or more of the amino acid residues in position B22-B30 optionally have been deleted.

  • Patent number: 8263551
    Abstract: The present invention relates to pharmaceutical formulations comprising insulin, an insulin analog, an insulin derivative, or a combination of any of the foregoing, and a salt of protamine, to methods of preparing such formulations, and to uses of such formulations in the treatment of diseases and conditions for which use of the insulin peptide(s) contained in such formulations is indicated. The present invention further relates to methods for increasing the stability and/or solubility of insulin in insulin-containing formulations at a pH less than 7.0 by adding a salt of protamine to the insulin-containing formulations.

  • Patent number: 7879893
    Abstract: The present invention relates to novel ligands for the HisB10 Zn2+ sites of the R-state insulin hexamer having the formula A-B-C-D-X (III), wherein: A is a chemical group which reversibly binds to a HisB10 Zn2+ sites of an insulin hexamer; B is a linker; C is a fragment consisting of 0 to 5 neutral amino acids; D is a fragment comprising 1 to 20 positively charged groups independently selected from amino or guanidino groups; and X is —OH, —NH2 or a diamino group. The present invention also relates to R-state insulin hexamers comprising such ligands, and aqueous insulin preparations comprising such R-state insulin hexamers.
