Abstract:
Objective To compare the purification process of two types of ceramic hydroxyapatite(CHT I and CHT II)to remove the aggregates from two monoclonal antibodies(mAb 1 and mAb 2).Methods All the chromatography runs were performed on AKTA AVANT 150 with Tricon 10/50 column.The dynamic binding capacity( DBC) of two types of CHT was studied firstly, and then purification research was carried out selecting the suitable DBC.The column was equilibrated with 5 mmol/L sodium dihydrogen phosphate pH 6.5, and then was eluted with gradient buffers which were 10 mmol/L sodium dihydrogen phosphate pH 6.5 and 2 mol/L sodium chloride pH 6.5.Aggregate content in loading and elution pool was evaluated by size exclusion chromatography.Scale-up process was carried on 20 cm height chromatography column XK16/40.Results DBC of CHT I for mAb 1 was 40 mg/mL and mAb 2 was 45 mg/mL.After purity, monomer content of mAb 1 reached 98.6% and yield was 92.5% and monomer content of mAb 2 reached 98.8%and yield was 91.5%.DBC of CHT II for mAb1 was 16 mg/mL and mAb 2 was 20 mg/mL.After purity, monomer content of mAb 1 reached 99.8% and yield was 91.8% and monomer content of mAb 2 reached 99.9% and yield was 92.2%.Conclusion Two types of CHT both can remove aggregates effectively from monoclonal antibodies when aggregate content reaches more than 10%, and results conform to the regulations.CHT I has higher dynamic binding capacity than CHT II, and CHT II is superior to CHT I in removing aggregate efficiency.The purification process is simple and can be easily scaled up in pilot and manufacture.Therefore, it meets the requirement pilot and scale production.
