The present invention relates to a liquid composition which comprises, in an aqueous medium, one or more protein(s) and one or more solubilizing agent(s) chosen from the group consisting of anionic compounds of non-saccharide structure, said structure of which contains at least one aromatic nucleus comprising at least 6 ring members (6 atoms) and at least one carboxylic acid group in salified form, and which has, in its acid form, a molar mass of between 130 and 500 g/mol. It also relates to the use of said solubilizing agent(s) for preparing compositions according to the invention. It also relates to a process for solubilizing one or more protein(s), wherein at least one solubilizing agent chosen from the group consisting of anionic compounds of non-saccharide structure, said structure of which contains at least one aromatic nucleus comprising at least 6 ring members (6 atoms) and at least one carboxylic acid group in salified form, and which has, in its acid form, a molar mass of between 130 and 500 g/mol, is added to an aqueous protein preparation in order to solubilize the protein.

Aqueous composition comprising at least one protein and one solubilizing agent, preparation thereof and uses thereof

A composition in aqueous solution, including an insulin and at least one oligosaccharide whose average degree of polymerization is between 3 and 13 and whose polydispersity index PDI is above 1.0, the oligosaccharide having partially substituted carboxyl functional groups, the unsubstituted carboxyl functional groups being salifiable.

Rapid-acting insulin formulation comprising an oligosaccharide

An oral solid dosage form containing one or several active principle(s) having analgesic properties, the composition of said dosage form being such that it prevents the misuse of said dosage form through the liquid extraction of the active principle(s) contained therein, using commonly available solvents. Said oral solid dosage form containing at least one salt of at least one analgesic active principle, and an anti-misuse system comprising at least one quenching agent, said quenching agent being suitable for inducing complexation of said analgesic active principle salt when the analgesic active principle salt is improperly extracted, notably by a drug abuser, in vitro in solution from said oral solid dosage form.

Oral dosage form comprising an antimisuse system

The invention relates to novel biodegradable materials based on modified polyamino acids and suitable, in particular, for vectoring active substance(s) (AS). Said invention also relates to novel pharmaceutical, cosmetic, dietary or plant protective compositions which are based on said polyamino acids. The aim of said invention is to provide a novel polymer raw material usable for vectoring the AS and capable to optimally meet all specification in this area: biocompatibility, biodegradability, ability to become easily associated with many active substances or to solubilize them and to release said active substances in vivo. The aim is attained to 30 carbon atoms. Said polyglutamates modified by histidine derivatives are soluble with pH lower than 5 and are easily and economically convertible into active substance vectorization particles which are able to form stable aqueous colloidal suspensions. On the contrary, said modified polyglutamates are insoluble in water with a physiological pH (7.4), and thereby have to be precipitated on an injection site in the case of a subcutaneous injection.

Polyglutamic acids functionalised by histidine derivatives and hydrophobic groups and the uses thereof, in particular for therapeutic purposes

The invention concerns novel materials based on biodegradable branched polyaminoacids particularly useful for transporting active principle(s). The invention also concerns novel pharmaceutical, cosmetic, dietetic or phytosanitary compositions based on polyaminoacids. The invention aims at providing a novel polymeric material, capable of being used for transporting active principle(s) and enabling all the required relevant specifications to be optimally satisfied: biocompatibility, biodegradability, easy ability to be combined with a large number of active principles or to solubilize same, and to release the active principles in vivo. This is achieved by the present invention which firstly concerns branched polyaminoacids comprising aspartic acid units and or glutamic acid units, and which bear hydrophobic groups including 8 to 30 carbon atoms. The branched polyaminoacids are amphiphilic and are capable of being easily and economically transformed into particles for transporting active principles, the particles being themselves capable of forming stable aqueous colloidal suspensions.

The invention relates to novel materials based on biodegradable homopolyamino acids and which can be used for the vectorization of (an) active ingredient(s) (AI). The invention also relates to novel pharmaceutical, cosmetic, dietetic or phytosanitaty compositions based on homopolyamino acids. The invention can produce a novel polymer raw material which can be used for the vectoiization of Al that can optimally be: biocompatible, biodegradable, capable of becoming easily associated with a large number of active ingredients or solubilizing them and releasing the active ingredients in vivo. According to the present invention, which primarily relates to linear homopolyamino acids having aspartic or glutamic units and whose attachments can include hydrophobic groups having 8-30 carbon atoms. The homopolymers are amphiphilic and anionic and can easily be transformed at low cost into particles for the vectorization of active ingredients. The particles can form stable aqueous colloidal suspensions.
