1.Advances in purification and clinical use of IgA- and IgM-enriched human immunoglobulin
Chinese Journal of Biologicals 2025;38(10):1253-1257+1262
In the traditional human immunoglobulin for intravenous injection(IVIG) manufacturing process, IgM and IgA fractions are often discarded as pollutants, but previous studies have shown that these antibodies are effective in treating sepsis or septic shock. Considering the increasing demand for products derived from human plasma and the scarcity of raw materials,it is necessary to further improve the utilization rate of plasma in industrial production. Therefore, further purification of IgAand IgM-enriched IgG from IVIG production waste is very valuable. At present, no drug of the same type has been approved for marketing domestically. This paper reviews the content of IgA and IgM in IVIG products that have been marketed, the purification and the clinical use of IgA-and IgM-enriched IgG products that have been marketed or in clinical research abroad, so as to provide reference for the process development and clinical use of IgA- and IgM-enriched IgG products

【Objective】 To screen the sterilizing-grade filters applicable for production of human coagulation factor Ⅷ/von Willebrand factor complex(FⅧ/VWF)and study the sterilization filtration process. 【Methods】 Four sterilizing-grade filters for FⅧ/VWF were evaluated through indicators such as filtration capacity, filtration flux, recovery rate of FⅧ activity, recovery rate of VWF activity, recovery rate of VWF antigen, recovery rate of protein and VWF molecular distribution. The sterilizing-grade filter with the best filtration performance was selected for further study. The study was designed by general full-factor design to determine the appropriate filitered protein concentration and filitered speed range through evaluating the total filtered protein amount, recovery rate of protein and filtration efficiency, and then the process operation parameters was determined. 【Results】 The filtration flux of Sartobran P, Sartopore 2 XLG, Sartopore Platinum and Sartopore 2 XLI were 1.71±0.01, 1.80±0.01, 1.34±0.01, and 1.81±0.04 L·(m2)-1·min-1, respectively; the recovery rates (%) of FⅧ activity were 97.09±2.82, 99.22±0.99, 96.87±1.85 and 93.76±1.21, respectively; the recovery rates (%) of VWF activity were 98.12±1.42, 99.95±1.85, 94.80±1.62 and 92.09±1.67, respectively. Between Sartopore 2 XLG and Sartobran P, the difference of filtration flux (P<0.001) was statistically significant; between Sartopore 2 XLG and Sartopore Platinum, the differences of the filtration flux (P<0.001) and VWF potency recovery rate (P<0.05) were statistically significant; between Sartopore 2 XLG and Sartopore 2 XLI, the differences of FⅧ potency recovery rate (P<0.01) and VWF potency recovery rate (P<0.01) were statistically significant. The optimal process operating space of Sartopore 2 XLG was protein concentration of 0.45-0.58 mg/mL, and filtration rate of 1.48-2.95 L·(m2)-1·min-1. 【Conclusion】 Sartopore 2 XLG is the most suitable filter for the production of FⅧ/VWF and the DoE test proves that it has good process operation space.
