Abstract

The invention relates to a liquid, aqueous pharmaceutical composition comprising a Factor VIIa polypeptide, a buffering agent suitable for keeping pH in the range of from about 5.5 to about 8.5; and an active site stabilizing agent, which is selected from the group of: (S)-2-{2-[5-(5-carbamimidoyl-1H-benzoimidazol-2-yl)-6,2′-dihydroxy-5′-sulfamoyl-biphenyl-3-yl]acetylamino}-succinic acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; (R)-2-{2-[5-(5-carbamimidoyl-1H-benzoimidazol-2-yl)-6,2′-dihydroxy-5′-sulfamoyl-biphenyl-3-yl]acetylamino}-succinic acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; and a mixture of the (S)- and (R)-forms or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. The invention further relates to said composition for treatment of a Factor VII-responsive bleeding disorder; methods for preparing the liquid composition and for stabilizing Factor VIIa in a liquid aqueous composition; an air-tight container containing the liquid, aqueous pharmaceutical composition and optionally an inert gas; and a method of treating a Factor VII-responsive bleeding disorder in a patent.
