Abstract
Biopharmaceuticals, such as vaccine agents and probiotics, are encapsulated in carbohydrate-glass particles and embedded in an amorphous polymer substrate to produce polymeric compositions containing ambient-temperature stable biopharmaceuticals for syringeless administration to patients such as via dissolvable films, micro-needle patches and similar medical delivery devices. The amorphous polymer substrate is soluble in both water and volatile organic solvents, yet the carbohydrate-glass particles are insoluble in organic solvents. A method for formulation of the polymeric compositions containing ambient-temperature stable biopharmaceuticals includes combining biopharmaceuticals encapsulated in carbohydrate-glass particles with polymer in organic solvent and evaporating the organic solvent to yield a water soluble polymeric composition containing ambient-temperature stable biopharmaceuticals.
