Description:
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS 
     This application is a continuation of International Application No. PCT/US2019/061363, filed Nov. 14, 2019, which claims the benefit of priority of U.S. Provisional Application No. 62/767,448, filed Nov. 14, 2018, each of which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety for any purpose. 
    
    
     FIELD 
     The present invention relates to stable glucocorticoid formulations with low concentrations of preservatives. More particularly, the present invention relates to high concentration formulations of a glucocorticoid-containing aqueous pharmaceutical composition that is formulated with low levels of antioxidant acting preservatives. Such preservatives that have previously been formulated at high dose levels have been found to be associated with patient toxicity. Accordingly, the ability to achieve continued drug stability and purity in the presence of low levels of antioxidants, as disclosed herein, is highly desirable. 
     BACKGROUND 
     There are many reported disadvantages associated with the use of preservatives and antioxidants typically added to pharmaceutical compositions to maintain stability. (American Hospital Formulary Service. Volumes I and II. Washington, D.C.: American Society of Hospital Pharmacists, to 1984., p. 40:08). For example, the field of pediatrics is struggling with toxic excipients of liquid formulations to the extent that an entire industry is making an effort to switch to new solid formulation forms (mini-tablets, orodisperse films etc.; Thabet et al. 2018). The European Paediatric Formulation Initiative is working on the “Safety and Toxicity of Excipients for Paediatrics” (STEP)—database, which provides toxicologic information (thresholds etc.) on selected pharmaceutical excipients for pediatric use. (see www.eupfi.org/step-database-info/). New liquid formulations with excipients either absent from the STEP database list or without a set threshold are desperately needed. 
     Parabens are a class of widely used preservatives in both cosmetic and pharmaceutical products. There are reports that parabens are associated with toxic side effects—for example, the controversial status of propylparaben concerning reproductive toxicity (Oishi et al., 2002) has not yet been resolved (excipient no longer covered by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) entry for food additives; EFSA unable to recommend a specific acceptable daily intake (ADI)). Parabens were associated with aeroallergen sensitization (Savage et al. 2012; Spanier et al. 2014) and an increase in the potential risk of allergic disease. In particular when administered as a high-dose bolus due to compounding formulations (increased levels), parabens might become a dangerous trigger for allergies. 
     Benzyl alcohol is used as a bacteriostatic preservative at low concentration in a number of intravenous medications, cosmetics, and topical drugs. Benzyl alcohol&#39;s severe toxicity regarding neonates is well-recognised (Gershanik et al., 1982; Hiller et al., 1986; Benda et al., 1986; Jardine and Rogers at al., 1989). Due to its generally recognized toxicity (neural, hemolytic, mucous membrane irritant), the World Health Organisation (Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives; JECFA) set an ADI treshold of 5 mg/kg. 
     Benzethonium chloride is used as a preservative in pharmaceutical and cosmetic products. It is an irritant and allergic sensitizer in humans (Benjamin et al. 2011, Dao et al. 2012). Very recent data suggests that it could potentially exacerbate inflammatory bowel disease and associated colon cancer (Sanidad et al. 2018). 
     Propylene glycol is used as a vehicle for topical, oral, and intravenous pharmaceutical preparations. It may also be used as a preservative in pharmaceutical and cosmetic products. Propylene glycol, given in amounts ≥3 g/day IV, can accumulate and cause lactic acidosis, CNS depression, coma, hypoglycemia, seizures, and hemolysis (Lim et al. 2014). Patients at risk for toxicity include infants, patients with renal insufficiency or patients with epilepsy. Therefore the Committee for Human Medicinal Products, EMA/CHMP/334655/2013 (November 2014) has set thresholds of 1 mg/kg (neonates up to 28 days), 50 mg/kg (29 days up to 4 years), 500 mg/kg (5 years up to 17 years and adults). 
     Creatinine has been used as a stabilizing excipient for high-concentration, low volume Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate (DSP; withdrawn) formulations in the past. Intravenous administration of those formulations lead to artifactually elevated patient creatinine lab results due to analytically correct measurement of creatinine added as an excipient (Darby et al. 2012). 
     Sulfites are also widely used as preservative and antioxidant additives in the pharmaceutical industries. Exposure to such sulfites has been reported to induce a range of adverse clinical effects in sensitive individuals, ranging from dermatitis, urticaria, flushing, hypotension and abdominal pain to life-threatening anaphylactic and asthmatic reactions. Sulfite-inducing symptoms range from mild in some individuals, to severe in others, and in some individuals the reactions can be life threatening (See, EFSA Journal 2016; 14(4):4438; www.efsa.europa.eu/en/efsajournal/pub/4438). 
     Obtaining the stability of a drug formulation without the potential toxicological side effects of preservatives and stabilizers can be difficult to achieve and it is difficult to prevent adverse and/or safety issues from occuring. More specifically, the concentration of a preservative necessary for stability of the formulation may create the potential for toxicological effects. Using lower concentrations of the preservative may help to reduce the potential for such toxicological side effects, but the lower concentrations of the preservatives may also be inadequate to achieve the desired assay level. That is, using lower concentrations of the preservative may help to reduce the potential for such toxicological side effects, but the lower concentrations of the preservatives may also be inadequate to maintain required levels of chemical and physical stability of the formulation over time. Stability of the formulation over time may be determined, for example, by assaying quantitative chemical attributes of the formulation such as levels of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) or its degradation products. 
     As stated above, pharmaceutical compositions typically require the addition of preservatives, stabilizers, and antioxidant additives such as sodium sulfite to maintain the stability of the composition. Examples of such pharmaceutical compositions include solutions and suspensions that are injected into the bodies of humans or other mammals. For such parenteral products, where inert gases as well as nitrogen are used as the interior gas within the vials of injectables, manufacturers strive to reach a 100% level of saturation of a chosen gas within the vial headspace in order to restrict the amount of oxygen which can contribute to oxidative degradation of the API. However, due to manufacturing limitations during good manufacturing practice (GMP) manufacture and filling, it is possible for trace amounts of oxygen to be introduced inadvertently, reducing the product&#39;s shelf-life and stability when compared to its registration label. 
     Furthermore, since it is known that no containers are perfectly gas tight (e.g. tested for stoppered vials with lyophilized product: ˜1.3% atm oxygen permeation per year; Lighthouse Instruments webinar “Determining &amp; Controlling Oxygen Levels in Sensitive Formulations”-www2.lighthouseinstruments.com/1/302881/2018-02-26/2nytk), oxygen permeates into the vials over time. Permeation occurs either through the rubber stopper material of the vial or through microchannels between the rubber stopper and the vial neck interphase. 
     Therefore, when a new formulation is planned, a threshold of headspace oxygen needs to be considered. Knowing the impact of excess oxygen allows the manufacturer to calculate the impact on stability of the drug product and potentially reduce the quantity of excipient utilized in that formulation. Formulations with increasing amounts of oxygen content in percent can be manufactured for Design of Experiment (DoE) studies to simulate a worst-case scenario. The formulations with varying levels of headspace oxygen are then set on stability and eventually an assay and shelf-life is determined for increasing levels of oxygen. That is, the formulations with varying levels of headspace oxygen are then tested for stability and an assay of quantitative chemical attributes (e.g. API amount, presence of degradation products, pH, etc.) and shelf-life is determined for increasing levels of oxygen. 
     Means for determining headspace oxygen levels in a given headspace volume are well known to those skilled in the art. For example, headspace oxygen levels may be measured by conventional destructive techniques, such as electrochemical methods or gas chromatography, or by non-destructive methods such as laser-based Frequency Modulation Spectroscopy (Pharmaceutical Technology, July 2002; Lighthouse Instruments Application Note 102). 
     Such compositions and formulations once packaged can therefore carry trace amounts of oxygen from the manufacturing process, thereby decreasing the stability of the composition or formulation. Moreover, aside from degrading oxidative processes, hydrolyzation contributes to degradation of the API and reduces the assay as well as increases the accumulation of unwanted impurities above a safe threshold. 
     Accordingly, it is necessary to employ a means for preventing such degradation from occurring and the means employed may be the addition of an antioxidant, stabilizer, and/or antimicrobial chemical agent (herein referred to as “preservative”) that maintains the assay of the composition.

     Thus, there is a need for a means to maintain the stability of the pharmaceutical environment so that very low concentrations of preservatives can be utilized without reducing the shelf-life of the product to the extent where the product would no longer be safely administered. 
     A need exists for a means to maintain the stability of aqueous pharmaceutical formulations comprising a glucocorticoid with low concentrations of preservatives. Aqueous pharmaceutical formulations comprising a glucocorticoid and low or no amounts of preservative without reduced stability or shelf-life are desired. 
     SUMMARY 
     The following brief summary is not intended to include all features and aspects of the present invention, nor does it imply that the invention must include all features and aspects discussed in this summary. 
     The present disclosure is directed to high concentration glucocorticoid-containing pharmaceutical compositions comprising reduced levels of antioxidant-acting preservatives. More particularly, the present disclosure is directed to aqueous pharmaceutical formulations comprising a glucocorticoid. The pharmaceutical formulations disclosed herein comprise reduced levels of preservative and/or chelating agent as compared to known glucocorticoid-containing formulations. 
     The present disclosure is based on the finding that use of a defined headspace volume to API ratio during the filling of the formulation into vials results in a maintained stability of the compositions close to the state directly after manufacture in the presence of reduced levels of antioxidant preservatives. 
     That is, the present disclosure is based on the finding that use of a defined headspace volume (ml) to glucocorticoid (mg) ratio during packaging of the glucocorticoid containing formulation into containers (e.g. vials) results in stability of the formulation being maintained close to its state directly after manufacture. Surprisingly, this effect is observed even when the formulation comprises reduced or no amounts of preservative (e.g. antioxidants). The defined headspace volume (ml) to glucocorticoid (mg) ratio disclosed herein is lower than that used in known glucocorticoid formulations (see Example 1, Table 1). 
     Without being bound by theory, it is believed that use of a defined headspace volume (ml) to glucocorticoid (mg) ratio as disclosed herein (and which is lower than that used in known glucocorticoid formulations) results in fewer oxygen molecules being present per given molecule of glucocorticoid. Accordingly, a given amount of glucocorticoid molecules is presented with fewer oxygen molecules resulting in less oxidative degradation (and accumulation of impurities over time). 
     More specifically, the present invention is based on a finding that reduced headspace volume to API ratio, beyond typical manufacturing (see Table 1), allows sulfite preservatives to be 35 ppm or lower as well as chelators (Disodium Edetate) to be 500 ppm or lower (Example 2) to achieve at least a minimum of 24 months shelf-life at between 2° C. to 30° C. (Table 4,  FIG. 1-26 ). 
     That is, the present authors have demonstrated that use of such a reduced headspace volume (ml) to glucocorticoid (mg) ratio allows sulfite preservatives to be present at 0.035 mg/ml (35 ppm) or less, and chelating agent (Disodium Edetate) to be present at 0.5 mg/ml (500 ppm) or less in a formulation with up to 48 months shelf-life when stored at 25° C./60% RH (see Example 2). 
     Moreover, the present invention is additionally based on the finding that Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate (DSP) in higher concentration in a solution becomes increasingly self-protective as an API (concentration dependence not known in the industry) against degrading processes like hydrolyzation and oxidization, enabling the above ranges of 0-35 ppm for sulfite preservatives and 0-500 ppm for chelators (Disodium Edetate). 
     That is, the present disclosure is also based on the unexpected finding that the glucocorticoid Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate (DSP), when present in high concentrations in an aqueous formulation, is increasingly self-protective against degradative processes like hydrolyzation and oxidization. This concentration-dependent self-protection, which has not previously been reported, also contributes to stability of the disclosed aqueous formulations 
     These unexpected findings of the present authors allow for the manufacture of aqueous pharmaceutical formulations comprising a glucocorticoid and low or no amounts of preservative and/or chelating agent, which formulations have shelf-lives which are comparable to, or longer than, those of known preservative-containing glucocorticoid formulations. That is, the compositions and formulations of the invention allow for long-term storage of glucocorticoid solutions which contain low or no amounts of preservative and/or chelating agent. 
     Accordingly, in a first aspect, the invention provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising (i) a glucocorticoid, packaged with a headspace (volume; [ml]) to glucocorticoid (weight [mg]) ratio of 0-0.00588, and (ii) a preservative in a concentration of less than 70 ppm. 
     The pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention offer several advantages over existing formulations. Given that antioxidant preservatives have been found to be associated with patient sensitivity and toxicity, pharmaceutical compositions comprising lower levels of such preservatives, while retaining stability of the composition, is highly desirable. In a specific embodiment of this invention, the antioxidant is Sodium Sulfite (Anhydrous), an excipient absent from the STEP—database, which is monitoring toxic excipients for use in pediatric populations (Thabet et al. 2018; Nellis et al. 2015; Turner et al. 2014). In a specific embodiment of the invention, AVM0703 refers to the initial target formulation of the DoE study (see Formulations 2, 4, 6, 8, 12 in Tables 4-7). 
     In a second aspect, the invention provides a method for producing a pharmaceutical composition having a low concentration of preservative, based on packing of said pharmaceutical composition with a headspace (volume; [ml]) to glucocorticoid (weight [mg]) ratio of 0-0.00588. 
     As outlined above, the present disclosure also relates to methods for production of high concentration glucocorticoid containing pharmaceutical compositions comprising reduced levels of antioxidant preservatives. Such methods comprise the step of mixing components of the composition and packaging said composition in an environment wherein the headspace volume to API ratio as well as the antioxidant to total API ratio is decreased. 
     In a third aspect, the invention provides a method of treating a host in need of glucocorticoid treatment, comprising administering a pharmaceutical composition of the invention. That is, the present disclosure is further directed to use of the pharmaceutical compositions disclosed herein for treatment of patients in need of glucocorticoid drugs. Such methods of treating a host include administration of the compositions to patients in need of anti-inflammatory, immunosuppression, lymphoablation, germinal center elimination, IL-2 IL-7 IL-12 and/or IL-15 elevation, mesenchymal stem cell elevation, G-CSF increase, neutrophil increase, tumor/cancer killing or lymphodepletion (preconditioning) before cell-based therapy, FGF-18 elevation, cartilage production, hematopoietic stem cell elevation and/or neutrophil production, or improvement in Performance Status among patients with diseases that include but are not limited to cancer and autoimmune diseases, for example. 
     In a fourth aspect, the invention provides an aqueous pharmaceutical formulation comprising dexamethasone and a preservative, wherein the formulation is packaged in a container with a headspace volume (ml) to dexamethasone content (mg) ratio of 0.007 or less, and wherein the concentration of preservative is or is less than about 0.1 mg/ml. The present inventors have found that use of a defined headspace volume (ml) to glucocorticoid (mg) ratio during packaging of the glucocorticoid containing formulation into containers (e.g. vials) results in stability of the formulation being maintained close to its state directly after manufacture. Surprisingly, this effect is observed even when the formulation comprises reduced or no amounts of preservative (e.g. antioxidants). 
     In some embodiments, the dexamethasone is dexamethasone sodium phosphate. In some embodiments, the concentration of dexamethasone phosphate in the formulation is at least 24 mg/ml. In some embodiments, the headspace volume (ml) to dexamethasone content (mg) ratio is 0.00588 or less. In some embodiments, the headspace volume comprises less than about 10% oxygen, more preferably less than about 5% oxygen. 
     In some embodiments, the concentration of preservative is or is less than about 0.035 mg/ml. In some embodiments, the preservative is a sulfite, a paraben, benzyl alcohol, benzethonium chloride, propylene glycol, and/or creatinine. In some embodiments, the sulfite is sodium sulfite (anhydrous), sodium bisulfate, and/or sodium metabisulfite. In some particularly preferred embodiments, the formulation does not comprise a preservative. The present inventors have demonstrated that use of the defined headspace volume (ml) to glucocorticoid (mg) ratios of the present invention allows the formulations of the invention to remain stable up to 29 months (and projected up to 48 months) after manufacture, even with low or no amounts of preservative. 
     In some embodiments the formulation comprises one or more chelating agent. In some embodiments, the concentration of chelating agent is or is less than about 0.50 mg/ml. In some embodiments, the chelating agent is disodium edetate (disodium EDTA). In some particularly preferred embodiments, the formulation does not comprise a chelating agent. The present inventors have demonstrated that use of the defined headspace volume (ml) to glucocorticoid (mg) ratios of the present invention allows the formulations of the invention to remain stable without use of a chelating agent. 
     In some embodiments, the dexamethasone is selected from the group consisting of dexamethasone base, dexamethasone sodium phosphate and dexamethasone acetate. In some preferred embodiments, the dexamethasone is dexamethasone sodium phosphate. 
     In some embodiments, the shelf-life of the formulation is at least about 18, 24, 36, or 48 months when stored between 2° C. to 40° C. In some embodiments, the formulation remains stable when stored between 2° C. to 40° C. for at least about 18, 24, 36, or 48 months. 
     In some embodiments, the amount of glucocorticoid in the formulation is maintained between ±5.0% as compared to the date of manufacture when the formulation is stored between 2° C. to 40° C. for at least about 18, 24, 36, or 48 months. In some embodiments, the formulation exhibits less than ±0.5 change in pH when stored between 2° C. to 40° C. for at least about 18, 24, 36, or 48 months. 
     In some embodiments, the formulation exhibits less than about 0.50% accumulation of impurity A when stored between 2° C. to 40° C. for at least about 18, 24, 36, or 48 months. In some embodiments, the formulation exhibits less than about 0.50% accumulation of impurity B when stored between 2° C. to 40° C. for at least about 18, 24, 36, or 48 months. In some embodiments the formulation exhibits less than about 0.50% accumulation of impurity G when stored between 2° C. to 40° C. for at least about 18, 24, 36, or 48 months. In some embodiments, the formulation exhibits less than about 0.20% accumulation of unspecified impurities when stored between 2° C. to 40° C. for at least about 18, 24, 36, or 48 months. In some embodiments, the formulation exhibits less than about 3.0% accumulation of total impurities when stored between 2° C. to 40° C. for at least about 18, 24, 36, or 48 months. 
     In a fifth aspect, the invention provides an aqueous pharmaceutical formulation as defined herein, for use in a method of treatment. 
     In a sixth aspect, the invention provides use of an aqueous pharmaceutical formulation as defined herein for the preparation of a medicament for use in a method of treatment. 
     In a seventh aspect, the invention provides a method of treatment comprising administering to a subject in need thereof, a therapeutically effective amount of an aqueous pharmaceutical formulation as defined herein. 
     In an eighth aspect, the invention provides a method for stabilising an aqueous pharmaceutical formulation comprising dexamethasone and a preservative, the method comprising packaging an aqueous pharmaceutical formulation as defined herein into a container with a headspace volume (ml) to dexamethasone content (mg) ratio of 0.007 or less. 
     The invention includes the combination of the aspects and preferred features described except where such a combination is clearly impermissible or expressly avoided.

     TABLE 9 demonstrates 10 additonally manufactured formulations for an extended DoE study which were conducted to assess the shelf-life of the formulation in the absence of Sodium Sulfite (Anhydrous) and/or Disodium Edetate at different levels of headspace oxygen (0, 5, 10, 15%). Storage conditions are 40° C./75% RH (inverted vial position) with sampling carried out at 0, 1, 3 and 6 months. 
     Table 10 demonstrates four additionally manufactured formulations with 2 varying levels of DSP (10 and 30 mg/ml) for an extended DoE study which was conducted to assess the shelf-life of the formulation with increasing DSP concentration in the presence or absence of Disodium Edetate (0.5 mg/ml). All four formulations contained 5% headspace oxygen (95% nitrogen) and lacked sulfite. Storage conditions are 40° C./75% RH (inverted vial position) with sampling carried out at 0, 1, 3 and 6 months. 
     Table 11 demonstrates two additionally manufactured formulations with 45 mg/ml DSP for an extended DoE study which was conducted to assess the shelf-life of the formulation with increasing DSP concentration in the presence or absence of Disodium Edetate (0.5 mg/ml).

     Table 12 demonstrates the results of the additional design of experiment for increasing concentrations of Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate (DSP). The six formulations (shown in Tables 10 and 11) with 3 varying levels of DSP (10, 30 and 45 mg/ml, equivalent to 9.15, 27.45 and 41.17 Dexamethsone Phosphate (DP)) with or without 0.5 mg/ml EDTA, respectively, were manufactured and put on stability (50 ml amber vial; 0, 1, 3, 6 months at 40° C./75% RH). All 6 formulations contained 5% headspace oxygen (95% nitrogen) and lacked sulfite. The results demonstrates that the formulations with an increasing DSP concentration form less total impurities over time.

         FIG. 1  demonstrates six formulations with varying levels of Sodium Sulfite (Anhydrous) and Headspace Oxygen which were tested for maintaining the assay at 25° C./60% RH (29 months). Formulation 2 and 4 (F2, 4) are target point formulations with 0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite (Anhydrous) and 5% Headspace oxygen (95% nitrogen). The result demonstrates that the formulations are within a range of 95-105% DSP content for the tested values of Sodium Sulfite (Anhydrous) of 0 (F10), 0.035 (F2, 4, 11, 15) and 0.07 mg/ml (F9) at 5% (F2, 4, 9, 10), 10% (F11) and 20.90% (F15) headspace Oxygen, not dropping below 95% for any formulation tested. 
         FIG. 2  demonstrates that all the tested formulations are within a range of initially NMT (not more than) 0.5% for free Dexamethasone (later change to 1%; Imp A) with the exception of formulation 15 (atmospheric headspace oxygen). Tested values of Sodium Sulfite (Anhydrous) were 0 (F10), 0.035 (F2, 4, 11, 15) and 0.07 mg/ml (F9) at 5% (F2, 4, 9, 10), 10% (F11) and 20.90% (F15) headspace Oxygen. Free Dexamethasone accumulates due to acid hydrolysis from DSP (25° C./60% RH; 29 months). 
         FIG. 3  demonstrates that all the tested formulations are within a range of NMT (not more than) 0.2% for not yet identified impurities. Tested values of Sodium Sulfite (Anhydrous) were 0 (F10), 0.035 (F2, 4, 11, 15) and 0.07 mg/ml (F9) at 5% (F2, 4, 9, 10), 10% (F11) and 20.90% (F15) headspace Oxygen. Only formulation F15 (at atmospheric oxygen level) was above the threshold for the time point of 18 months and later (25° C./60% RH; 29 months). 
         FIG. 4  demonstrates that all the tested formulations are within a range of NMT (not more than) 3% for Total Impurities (consistent with USP). Tested values of Sodium Sulfite (Anhydrous) were 0 (F10), 0.035 (F2, 4, 11, 15) and 0.07 mg/ml (F9) at 5% (F2, 4, 9, 10), 10% (F11) and 20.90% (F15) headspace Oxygen (25° C./60% RH; 29 months).

While all ten formulations passed the description at 3 months, only the following formulations passed the description as a clear solution at the 6 months stability time point: (batch #-formulation #) 2-1 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0 mg/ml EDTA, 0% headspace oxygen), 2-2 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0 mg/ml EDTA, 5% headspace oxygen) and 3-1 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0.5 mg/ml EDTA, 0% headspace oxygen). All others showed precipitation at 6 months. The result shows that formulation 2-1 shows the least degradation of all formulations at the 6 months time point while still passing description (no precipitation).

Impurity B was not increasing for any of the formulations. 
         FIG. 31  demonstrates the additional design of experiment result for impurity C (up to 6 months at 40° C./75% RH; 26.23 mg/ml DSP=24 mg/ml DP) for the formulations without the presence of either sodium sulfite and/or EDTA at increasing levels of headspace oxygen (═HO: 0%, 5%, 10% and 15%): While all ten formulations passed the description at 3 months, only the following formulations passed the description as a clear solution at the 6 months stability time point: (batch #-formulation #) 2-1 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0 mg/ml EDTA, 0% headspace oxygen), 2-2 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0 mg/ml EDTA, 5% headspace oxygen) and 3-1 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0.5 mg/ml EDTA, 0% headspace oxygen). All others showed precipitation at 6 months. The result shows that the formulations with the highest headspace oxygen value showed the lowest accumulation of impurity C of all formulations at the 6 months time point.

All others showed precipitation at 6 months. Impurity D increased the most from the 3 month time point to the 6 month time point for all formulations. Formulation 3-1 with sulfite and EDTA present at 0% headspace oxygen (HO) had the lowest value at 6 months of those 3 formulations that passed the description without a precipitate. 
         FIG. 33  demonstrates the additional design of experiment result for impurity F (up to 6 months at 40° C./75% RH; 26.23 mg/ml DSP=24 mg/ml DP) for the formulations without the presence of either sodium sulfite and/or EDTA at increasing levels of headspace oxygen (═HO: 0%, 5%, 10% and 15%): While all ten formulations passed the description at 3 months, only the following formulations passed the description as a clear solution at the 6 months stability time point: (batch #-formulation #) 2-1 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0 mg/ml EDTA, 0% headspace oxygen), 2-2 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0 mg/ml EDTA, 5% headspace oxygen) and 3-1 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0.5 mg/ml EDTA, 0% headspace oxygen). All others showed precipitation at 6 months. The result shows that none of the formulations increase for impurity F beyond the 0.2% threshold.

All others showed precipitation at 6 months. The result shows that for impurity G, formulation 2-1 showed the lowest accumulation of all formulations at the 6 months time point. 
         FIG. 35  demonstrates the additional Design of experiment result for unidentified impurity (up to 6 months at 40° C./75% RH; 26.23 mg/ml DSP=24 mg/ml DP): While all ten formulations passed the description at 3 months, only the following formulations passed the description as a clear solution at the 6 months stability time point: (batch #-formulation #) 2-1 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0 mg/ml EDTA, 0% headspace oxygen), 2-2 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0 mg/ml EDTA, 5% headspace oxygen) and 3-1 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0.5 mg/ml EDTA, 0% headspace oxygen). All others showed precipitation at 6 months. The result shows that the two sulfite formulations (of all three without precipitation at 6 months) lacking EDTA (2-1, 2-2) show the lowest values of the highest unidentified impurity. 
         FIG. 36  demonstrates the additional Design of experiment result for total impurities (up to 6 months at 40° C./75% RH; 26.23 mg/ml DSP=24 mg/ml DP): While all ten formulations passed the description at 3 months, only the following formulations passed the description as a clear solution at the 6 months stability time point: (batch #-formulation #) 2-1 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0 mg/ml EDTA, 0% headspace oxygen), 2-2 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0 mg/ml EDTA, 5% headspace oxygen) and 3-1 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0.5 mg/ml EDTA, 0% headspace oxygen). All others showed precipitation at 6 months. The total impurities are the sum total of all previous impurities (A, B, C, D, F, G, highest unidentified impurity) as well as additionally all other unidentified impurities (with different retention times) that are of lower value. The result shows that the two sulfite formulations (of all three without precipitation at 6 months) lacking EDTA (2-1, 2-2) show the lowest values lowest amount of total impurities. Therefore, for this formulation no EDTA is needed at a storage condition of 40° C./75% RH at 0 or 5% headspace oxygen 
         FIG. 37  demonstrates the DSP result and projection of additional Design of Experiment formulations 2-1 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0 mg/ml EDTA and 0% Oxygen headspace), 2-2 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0 mg/ml EDTA and 5% headspace oxygen) and 3-1 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0.5 mg/ml EDTA and 0% headspace oxygen). The projection with 4 measured (up to 6 months) data points shows for the formulations that the Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate content is expected to be at 95% for 12 months (40° C./75% RH) for the formulation 2-1, while 2-2 and 3-1 are expected to be at a level of about 93% and 93.5% respectively.

The projection with 4 measured (up to 6 months) data points shows that the Impurity G level is expected to be below 0.5% at 12 months (40° C./75% RH) for all 3 formulations. 
         FIG. 43  demonstrates the Unidentified Impurity result and projection of the additional Design of Experiment formulations 2-1 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0 mg/ml EDTA and 0% Oxygen headspace), 2-2 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0 mg/ml EDTA and 5% headspace oxygen) and 3-1 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0.5 mg/ml EDTA and 0% headspace oxygen). The projection with 4 measured (up to 6 months) data points shows that the level of the Unidentified Impurity is expected to be below 0.5% at 12 months (40° C./75% RH) for all 3 formulations. Moreover, the two formulations lacking EDTA (2-1 and 2-2) show an expected level even below 0.2% at 12 months. 
         FIG. 44  demonstrates the Total Impurites result and projection of additional Design of Experiment formulations 2-1 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0 mg/ml EDTA and 0% Oxygen headspace), 2-2 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0 mg/ml EDTA and 5% headspace oxygen) and 3-1 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0.5 mg/ml EDTA and 0% headspace oxygen). The projection with 4 measured (up to 6 months) data points shows that the level of the Total Impurites is expected to be below 3% at 12 months (40° C./75% RH) for the two formulations lacking the EDTA (2-1, 2-2), while reaching 3% for the formulation 3-1 with sulfite and EDTA present. The result demonstrates that EDTA is not necessary to increase the stability of the formulation. 
         FIG. 45  demonstrates the results for the impurities A and C of the additional design of experiment for increasing concentrations of Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate (DSP). Six formulations with 3 varying levels of DSP (10, 30 and 45 mg/ml) with or without 0.5 mg/ml EDTA, respectively, were manufactured and put on stability (50 ml amber vial; 0, 1, 3, 6 months at 40° C./75% RH). All 6 formulations contained 5% headspace oxygen (95% nitrogen) and lacked sulfite. While there is a clear decrease of impurity C for all formulations over 6 months, there seems to be no clear trend for impurity A in the formulations including EDTA. For impurity A in the formulation lacking EDTA there is an initital increase visible that eventually stagnates, 
         FIG. 46  demonstrates the results for the impurities D and G of the additional design of experiment for increasing concentrations of Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate (DSP). Six formulations with 3 varying levels of DSP (10, 30 and 45 mg/ml) with or without 0.5 mg/ml EDTA, respectively, were manufactured and put on stability (50 ml amber vial; 0, 1, 3, 6 months at 40° C./75% RH). All 6 formulations contained 5% headspace oxygen (95% nitrogen) and lacked sulfite. While there is a clear decrease of impurity G for all formulations over 6 months, there seems to be no clear trend for impurity D in the formulations lacking EDTA. For impurity D in the formulations including EDTA there is a visible increase over time up to ˜0.2%. 
         FIG. 47  demonstrates the results for the Total Impurities of the additional design of experiment for increasing concentrations of Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate (DSP). Six formulations with 3 varying levels of DSP (10, 30 and 45 mg/ml) with or without 0.5 mg/ml EDTA, respectively, were manufactured and put on stability (50 ml amber vial; 0, 1, 3, 6 months at 40° C./75% RH). All 6 formulations contained 5% headspace oxygen (95% nitrogen) and lacked sulfite. The formulations with the highest DSP content of 45 mg/ml still passed the description at 3 months, while all other failed and showed a precipitate. The result demonstrates that the formulations with an increasing DSP concentration form less total impurities over time, independent of the presence or absence of EDTA. 
     
    
    
     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
     The present disclosure is directed to high concentration glucocorticoid containing pharmaceutical compositions comprising reduced levels of antioxidant acting preservatives. The present disclosure is based on the finding that use of a defined headspace volume to API ratio during distribution of the composition into packaging receptacles results in increased stability of the compositions in the presence of reduced levels of antioxidant preservatives. The pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention have several advantages over existing formulations. Given that antioxidant preservatives have been found to be associated with patient sensitivity and toxicity, pharmaceutical compositions comprising lower levels of such preservatives, while retaining stability of the composition at 2° C. to 40° C., is highly desirable. 
     That is, the present disclosure is directed to aqueous pharmaceutical formulations comprising a glucocorticoid. The aqueous pharmaceutical formulations comprise reduced levels of preservative, which may be antioxidant acting preservatives. The aqueous pharmaceutical formulations of the present invention have several advantages over existing formulations. Given that preservatives have been found to be associated with patient sensitivity and toxicity, pharmaceutical formulations comprising lower levels of such preservatives, while retaining stability of the formulation, are highly desirable. 
     The present invention is based in part on the finding that use of a defined headspace volume (ml) to glucocorticoid (mg) ratio during packaging of the formulation into containers results in increased stability of the formulation, even with reduced or no amount of preservative. Accordingly, in some embodiments of the aqueous pharmaceutical formulations comprising a glucocorticoid, the formulation is packaged in a container with a headspace volume (ml) to total glucocorticoid content (mg) ratio of 0.007 or less. In some embodiments the headspace volume (ml) to total glucocorticoid content (mg) ratio may be 0.0065 or less, 0.0060 or less, 0.00588 or less, 0.0055 or less, 0.0050 or less, 0.0045 or less, 0.0040 or less, 0.0035 or less, 0.0030 or less, 0.0025 or less, 0.0020 or less, 0.0015 or less, or 0.0010 or less. In some preferred embodiments, the headspace volume (ml) to total glucocorticoid content (mg) ratio may be 0.00588 or less. 
     In some embodiments of the aqueous pharmaceutical formulations comprising a glucocorticoid, the formulation is packaged in a container with a headspace volume (ml) to total glucocorticoid content (mg) ratio of between about 0.0046 to about 0.0099. In some embodiments the headspace volume (ml) to total glucocorticoid content (mg) ratio may be between about 0.003 and 0.007, or between about 0.004 and 0.006. In some embodiments the headspace volume (ml) to total glucocorticoid content (mg) ratio may be between about 0.001 and 0.00588. 
     Those skilled in the art can easily calculate equivalent concentrations of dexamethasone for a given glucocorticoid, as outlined in detail below. Accordingly, in some cases the headspace volume (ml) to total glucocorticoid content (mg) ratio may be expressed as a ratio of the headspace volume (ml) to glucocorticoid content (mg), wherein the glucocorticoid content is expressed as an equivalent content of dexamethasone (mg). That is, in some embodiments, the headspace volume (ml) to total glucocorticoid content (mg) ratio may be, or may be expressed as, a headspace volume (ml) to dexamethasone content (mg) ratio. 
     Means for determining headspace volume in a container are well known to those skilled in the art. For example, during packaging the headspace volume can be measured by the following calculation: (vial brim volume-stopper volume-fluid fill volume); or, by adding a liquid and measuring the volume when all gas has been replaced. 
     In some embodiments of the aqueous pharmaceutical formulations comprising a glucocorticoid, the formulation may be packaged in a container with a total sulfite content (mg) to total glucocorticoid content (mg) ratio of 0.0040 or less, 0.0035 or less, 0.0030 or less, 0.0025 or less, 0.0020 or less, 0.0015 or less, 0.00146 or less, or 0.0010 or less. In some preferred embodiments, the formulation may be packaged in a container with a total sulfite content (mg) to total glucocorticoid content (mg) ratio of 0.00150 or less. In some particularly preferred embodiments, the formulation may be packaged in a container with a total sulfite content (mg) to total glucocorticoid content (mg) ratio of 0.00146 or less. 
     In some embodiments of the aqueous pharmaceutical formulations comprising a glucocorticoid, the formulation may be packaged in a container with a sulfite content (mg):glucocorticoid content (mg):headspace volume (mg) ratio of 0.000203 or less. 
     In some embodiments of the aqueous pharmaceutical formulations comprising a glucocorticoid, the formulation may be packaged in a container with a ((sulfite (mg):glucocorticoid content (mg))×headspace volume (mg)) value of 0.01050 or less. 
     In some embodiments the headspace volume may be about 20, 19, 18, 17, 16, 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, or 1 ml. In some embodiments the headspace volume may be less than about 20, 19, 18, 17, 16, 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, or 1 ml. In some preferred embodiments the headspace volume may be or may be less than about 8 ml. In other preferred embodiments the headspace volume may be or may be less than about 7.2 ml. 
     In some embodiments, the headspace volume may be about 16, 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, or 1% of the total container volume. In some embodiments, the headspace volume may be less than about 16, 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, or 1% of the total container volume. 
     In some embodiments the headspace volume may comprise about 21, 20, 19, 18, 17, 16, 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, or 1% oxygen. In some embodiments the headspace volume may comprise less than about 21, 20, 19, 18, 17, 16, 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, or 1% oxygen. In some preferred embodiments the headspace volume may comprise about 5% oxygen or may comprise less than about 5% oxygen. In other preferred embodiments the headspace volume may comprise about 0% oxygen. 
     Means for determining headspace oxygen levels in a given headspace volume are well known to those skilled in the art. For example, headspace oxygen levels may be measured by conventional destructive techniques, such as electrochemical methods or gas chromatography, or by non-destructive methods such as laser-based Frequency Modulation Spectroscopy (Pharmaceutical Technology, July 2002; Lighthouse Instruments Application Note 102). 
     The aqueous pharmaceutical formulations of the invention advantageously comprise lower amounts of preservative (such as an antioxidant or antimicrobial) than known glucocorticoid formulations. Accordingly, in some embodiments, the formulation may (or may not) comprise a pharmaceutically acceptable preservative. In some embodiments, the formulation may comprise a sulfite preservative present in a concentration of less than about 1 mg/ml; a paraben preservative present in a concentration of less than about 0.2 mg/ml; creatinine present in a concentration of less than about 8 mg/ml; and/or benzethonium chloride present in a concentration of less than about 0.1 mg/ml. In some preferred embodiments, the total concentration of preservative in the formulation may be less than about 0.1 mg/ml. 
     In some embodiments, the concentration of preservative may be about 0.09 mg/ml, about 0.08 mg/ml, about 0.07 mg/ml, about 0.06 mg/ml, about 0.05 mg/ml, about 0.04 mg/ml, about 0.035 mg/ml, about 0.03 mg/ml, about 0.02 mg/ml, or about 0.01 mg/ml. In some embodiments, the concentration of preservative may be less than about 0.09 mg/ml, less than about 0.08 mg/ml, less than about 0.07 mg/ml, less than about 0.06 mg/ml, less than about 0.05 mg/ml, less than about 0.04 mg/ml, less than about 0.035 mg/ml, less than about 0.03 mg/ml, less than about 0.02 mg/ml, or less than about 0.01 mg/ml. In some preferred embodiments, the concentration of preservative may be about 0.07 mg/ml, or may be less than about 0.07 mg/ml.

     As outlined above, the pharmaceutical formulations of the invention may (or may not) comprise a pharmaceutically acceptable preservative (such as an antioxidant or antimicrobial) additive to maintain the stability of the formulation. Antioxidants are added in amounts that are reduced as compared to levels typically employed in known glucocorticoid containing formulations—thereby reducing the toxicity and adverse side effects associated with use of such antioxidant preservatives. 
     As used herein, antioxidants (antioxidant preservatives) are those excipients known to those skilled in the art to delay or inhibit the oxidation process of molecules, thereby increasing the stability of the composition. Such antioxidants include, but are not limited to, ascorbic acid, acetylcysteine, butylhydroxyanisol, cysteine hydrochloride, dithionite sodium, gentisic acid, glutamate monosodium, glutathione, formaldehyde sulfoxylate sodium, methionine, monothioglycerol, propyl gallate, sulfites, sodium thioglycolate, α-thioglycerol, tocopherol alpha, alpha tocopherol hydrogen succinate, vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin E, beta-carotene, lycopene, lutein, selenium, manganese, zeaxanthin, flavonoids, flavones, catechins, polyphenols, and phytoestrogens, and thioglycolate sodium. In some cases the antioxidant (antioxidant preservative) is a sulfite. Such sulfites relate to, but are not limited to, sodium sulfite (anhydrous) (Na 2 SO 3 ), sodium bisulfite (NaHSO 3 ), potassium bisulfite (KHSO 3 ), potassium metabisulfite (K 2 S 2 O 5 ) and sodium metabisulfite (Na 2 S 2 O 5 ). 
     Thus, in some embodiments of the pharmaceutical formulations of the invention, the preservative may be a sulfite, a paraben, benzyl alcohol, benzethonium chloride, propylene glycol, and/or creatinine.

In some preferred embodiments the concentration of creatinine may be 0 mg/ml. That is, in some preferred embodiments the formulation does not comprise creatinine. 
     In some embodiments, the concentration of benzethonium chloride may be about 0.1 mg/ml or less than about 0.1 mg/ml. In some embodiments, the concentration of benzethonium chloride may be about 0.09 mg/ml, about 0.08 mg/ml, about 0.07 mg/ml, about 0.06 mg/ml, about 0.05 mg/ml, about 0.04 mg/ml, about 0.03 mg/ml, about 0.02 mg/ml, or about 0.01 mg/ml.

     The aqueous pharmaceutical formulations of the invention may advantageously comprise lower amounts of a chelating agent than known glucocorticoid formulations. Chelating agents are commonly included in pharmaceutical formulations to sequester and decrease the reactivity of metal ions that may be present in the formulation. 
     Accordingly, in some embodiments, the formulations of the invention may (or may not) comprise a chelating agent. In some embodiments, the formulation may comprise a chelating agent, wherein the concentration of chelating agent is or is less than about 0.50 mg/ml. In some embodiments the concentration of chelating agent may be about 0.45 mg/ml, about 0.40 mg/ml, about 0.35 mg/ml, about 0.30 mg/ml, about 0.25 mg/ml, about 0.20 mg/ml, about 0.15 mg/ml, about 0.10 mg/ml, or about 0.05 mg/ml. In some embodiments the concentration of chelating agent may be less than about 0.45 mg/ml, less than about 0.40 mg/ml, less than about 0.35 mg/ml, less than about 0.30 mg/ml, less than about 0.25 mg/ml, less than about 0.20 mg/ml, less than about 0.15 mg/ml, less than about 0.10 mg/ml, or less than about 0.05 mg/ml. In some preferred embodiments the concentration of chelating agent may be 0 mg/ml. That is, in some preferred embodiments the formulation does not comprise a chelating agent. In some preferred embodiments the formulation does not comprise disodium edetate (disodium EDTA). 
     Possible chelating agents include, but are not limited to, calcium disodium EDTA 0.01-0.1% (EDTA=Ethylenediaminetetra acetic acid or Edetate), Disodium EDTA 0.01-0.11%, Sodium EDTA 0.20%, Calcium Versetamide Sodium 2.84%, Calteridol 0.023%, and DTPA 0.04-1.2% (Diethylenetriaminepenta acetic acid). Other chelating agents include, but are not limited to, acetic acid, citric acid, ascorbic acid, lactic acid, edetic acid, nitriloacetic acid, dipicolinic acid, gadoteric acid, pentetic acid, gluconic acid, L-tartaric acid, thiosulfuric acid, emeramide, poliglusam, acteoside, thenoyltrifluoroacetone, tagatose, tetrathiomolybdate, alanosine, dimercaprol, triethyltetramine, deferiprone, calcium acetate, succimer, sevelamer, deferoxamine, penicillamine, tolevamer, deferasirox, 1,10-phenanthroline, and ditiocarb. In some embodiments, the chelating agent may be one or more of these. In some embodiments, the chelating agent may be ethylenediamine, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), sodium edetate, disodium edetate, tetrasodium edetate, calcium disodium edetate, calcium versetamide sodium, calteridol, and/or diethylenetriaminepenta acetic acid (DPTA). In some preferred embodiments, the chelating agent may be disodium edetate (disodium EDTA). 
     As used herein, the term glucocorticoid includes glucocorticoid receptor agonists and any compound that binds to the glucocorticoid receptor. Such compounds relate to, but are not limited to, dexamethasone, dexamethasone containing agents, hydrocortisone, methylprednisolone, prednisone, prednisolone, prednylidene, cortisone, budesonide, betamethasone and beclomethasone. Other glucocorticoids include mometasone furoate, Triamcinolone Acetonide and methylprednisone. Glucocorticoids further include glucocorticoid receptor modulating agonists. Additionally, selective glucocorticoid receptor agonists or modulators may be used in the pharmaceutical formulations disclosed herein. Such agonists or modulators include for example, selective glucocorticoid receptor modulators (SEGRMs) and selective glucocorticoid receptor agonists (SEGRAs). Glucocorticoids, glucocorticoid receptor modulators and selective glucocorticoid receptor agonists (SEGRAs) that may be utilized in the herein disclosed formulations and methods are well known to those skilled in the art. 
     The term glucocorticoid-receptor modulating agents as used herein non-exclusively relates to glucocorticoid receptor agonists or glucocorticoid receptor modulators including but not limited to: compound A [CpdA; (2-((4-acetophenyl)-2-chloro-N-methyl)ethylammoniumchloride)] and N-(4-methyl-1-oxo-1H-2,3-benzoxazine-6-yl)-4-(2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-7-yl)-2-hydroxy-2 (trifluoromethyl)-4-methylpentanamide (ZK216348), AL-438, Mapracorat, LGD-5552, RU 24858, Fosdagrocorat, PF-802, Compound 10, MK5932, C108297, LGD5552, and ORG 214007-0. 
     Glucocorticoids and glucocorticoid-receptor (GR) modulating agents exert their effects through both membrane glucocorticoid receptors and cytoplasmic GRs which activate or repress gene expression. Some of the desirable lymphodepletion effects of the glucocorticoids and GR modulating agents appear to be mediated via membrane GRs or other non-genomic effects in addition to their genomic effects. Interestingly, co-treatment with dexamethasone has been shown to be able to reduce glucocorticoid resistance (Serafin et al., 2017). 
     In some embodiments of the aqueous pharmaceutical formulations comprising a glucocorticoid, the glucocorticoid is selected from the group consisting of dexamethasone, hydrocortisone, methylprednisolone, prednisone, prednisolone, prednylidene, cortisone, budesonide, betamethasone and beclomethasone. In some preferred embodiments the glucocorticoid comprises dexamethasone, which may be selected from the group consisting of dexamethasone base, dexamethasone sodium phosphate, dexamethasone hemisuccinate, dexamethasone sodium succinate, dexamethasone succinate, and dexamethasone acetate. In some preferred embodiments the glucocorticoid is dexamethasone sodium phosphate. In some preferred embodiments the glucocorticoid is dexamethasone having the following formula (dexamethasone phosphate (as sodium)): 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     Dexamethasone phosphate (as sodium) is a white or slightly yellow, very hygroscopic, crystalline powder. It is odourless or has a slight odour of alcohol. Dexamethasone phosphate (as sodium) is soluble 1 in 2 in water, slightly soluble in alcohol, practically insoluble in chloroform and ether, and very slightly soluble in dioxan. 
     The present invention is based in part on the finding that the glucocorticoid Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate (DSP), when present in high concentrations in an aqueous formulation, is increasingly self-protective against degradative processes like hydrolyzation and oxidization. Accordingly, in some embodiments of the aqueous pharmaceutical formulations comprising a glucocorticoid, the concentration of glucocorticoid may be about 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 26.23, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, or 45 mg/ml. In some embodiments, the concentration of glucocorticoid may be at least about 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, or 45 mg/ml. In some particularly preferred embodiments the concentration of glucocorticoid may be about 24 mg/ml, or may be at least about 24 mg/ml. In other preferred embodiments the concentration of glucocorticoid may be about 26.23 mg/ml, or may be at least about 26.23 mg/ml. In other preferred embodiments the concentration of glucocorticoid may be about 30 mg/ml, or may be at least about 30 mg/ml. In other preferred embodiments the concentration of glucocorticoid may be about 45 mg/ml, or may be at least about 45 mg/ml. 
     In some embodiments of the aqueous pharmaceutical formulations comprising a glucocorticoid, the concentration of glucocorticoid may be less than about 500, 457, 450, 400, 350, 300, 250, 200, 150, or 100 mg/ml. In some preferred embodiments, the concentration of glucocorticoid may be less than about 457 mg/ml. In other preferred embodiments, the concentration of glucocorticoid may be less than about 250 mg/ml. 
     Those skilled in the art can easily calculate equivalent concentrations of glucocorticoids or glucocorticoid receptor modulating agents, for example using publicly available corticoid conversion algorithms. Those skilled in the art know, for example, that 10, 26.23, 30 and 45 mg/ml of dexamethasone sodium phosphate (DSP) is equivalent to 9.15, 24, 27.45 and 41.17 mg/ml respectively of dexamethsone phosphate (DP). Similarly, 26.23 and 45 mg/ml of dexamethasone sodium phosphate (DSP) is equivalent to 19.94 and 34.2 mg/ml respectively of dexamethasone. Thus, in some cases, the concentration of a glucocorticoid may be expressed as a concentration equivalent to a given concentration of another glucocorticoid—e.g., “a concentration equivalent to a given concentration of dexamethasone”. For example, 9.15 mg/ml of dexamethsone phosphate may be alternatively expressed as “a concentration of dexamethsone phosphate equivalent to 10 mg/ml of dexamethasone sodium phosphate” and vice versa. As another example, 34.2 mg/ml of dexamethasone may be alternatively expressed as “a concentration of dexamethsone equivalent to 45 mg/ml of dexamethasone sodium phosphate”. 
     In some embodiments, the concentration of glucocorticoid may be between about 4.4 mg/ml to about 1000 mg/ml. In some embodiments the glucocorticoid is dexamethasone phosphate in a concentration between about 4.4 mg/ml and about 457 mg/ml DP (dexamethasone phosphate), more preferably between about 24 mg/ml and about 457 mg/ml DP). In some embodiments the glucocorticoid is dexamethasone phosphate in a concentration between about 24 mg/ml and about 450 mg/ml DP, between about 24 mg/ml and about 400 mg/ml DP, between about 24 mg/ml and about 350 mg/ml DP, between about 24 mg/ml and about 300 mg/ml DP, more preferably between about 24 mg/ml and about 250 mg/ml DP. 
     In some embodiments, the pH of the formulation may be between about 7.0 to about 8.2, about 7.2 to about 8.0, about 7.3 to about 7.9, or between about 7.4 to about 7.8, In some preferred embodiments, the pH of the formulation may be between about 7.4 to about 7.8. In some preferred embodiments, the pH of the formulation may be about 7.6. 
     In addition to the glucocorticoid, preservative (which may be an antioxidant preservative), and chelating agent outlined above, additional components well known to those of skill in the art may be included in the pharmaceutical formulations of the invention. Pharmaceutical formulations may be prepared using a pharmaceutically acceptable “carrier” composed of materials that are considered safe and effective. “Pharmaceutically acceptable” refers to molecular entities and compositions that are “generally regarded as safe”, e.g., that are physiologically tolerable and do not typically produce an allergic or similar untoward reaction, such as gastric upset and the like, when administered to a human. In some embodiments, this term refers to molecular entities and compositions approved by a regulatory agency of the US federal or a state government, as the GRAS list under section 204(s) and 409 of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, that is subject to premarket review and approval by the FDA or similar lists, the U.S. Pharmacopeia or another generally recognized pharmacopeia for use in animals, and more particularly in humans. 
     The term “carrier” relates to, but is not limited to, diluents, binders, lubricants, and disintegrants. Those with skill in the art are familiar with such pharmaceutical carriers and methods of compounding pharmaceutical compositions and formulations using such carriers. 
     The pharmaceutical formulations of the invention may (or may not) include one or more excipients, e.g., solvents, solubility enhancers, suspending agents, buffering agents, isotonicity agents, stabilizers, and antioxidants or antimicrobial preservatives. The IID lists the highest amount of the excipient per unit dose in each dosage form in which it is used. The amounts shown for maximum potency do not reflect the maximum daily intake (MDI) of the excipient unless the maximum daily dose of the product that is the basis for the listing is only a single unit. When used, the excipients of the compositions will not adversely affect the stability, bioavailability, safety, and/or efficacy of the active ingredients, i.e., glucocorticoids, used in the formulation. Thus, formulations are provided wherein there is no incompatibility between any of the components of the dosage form. Excipients may be selected from the group consisting of buffering agents, solubilizing agents, tonicity agents, chelating agents, antioxidants, antimicrobial agents, and preservatives. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical formulations may comprise a buffer (buffering agent). In some embodiments, the buffer may be sodium citrate. In some preferred embodiments, the concentration of buffer may be about 10 mg/ml. 
     The present disclosure is based in part on the finding that use of a defined headspace volume (ml) to glucocorticoid (mg) ratio during the packaging of the formulation into a container results in a maintained stability of the formulation close to its state directly after manufacture. In some embodiments the container may be a vial, ampoule, solvent reservoir, storage bottle, medical bottle, syringe, or bottle. 
     Those skilled in the art will appreciate that formulations packaged in smaller volumes are easier to stabilize, and therefore require less preservative. For example, formulations packaged in smaller volumes are easier to stabilize against oxygen (oxidative degradation). Surprisingly, use of the defined headspace volume (ml) to glucocorticoid (mg) ratio of the present invention results in increased stability of aqueous formulations, with reduced or no amount of preservative, even in large volume containers. Accordingly, in some embodiments, the volume of the container may be about 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 51, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, or 100 ml. In some embodiments, the volume of the container may be at least about 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 51, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, or 100 ml. In some preferred embodiments, the volume of the container may be about 59 ml, or may be at least about 59 ml. In some preferred embodiments, the volume of the container may be about 51 ml, or may be at least about 51 ml. In other preferred embodiments, the volume of the container may be about 50 ml, or may be at least about 50 ml. In some embodiments the volume of pharmaceutical formulation packaged in the container may be at least about 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, or 100 ml. In some preferred embodiments the volume of pharmaceutical formulation packaged in the container may be about 43 ml, or may be at least about 43 ml. In some preferred embodiments the volume of pharmaceutical formulation packaged in the container may be about 50 ml, or may be at least about 50 ml. In some preferred embodiments the volume of pharmaceutical formulation packaged in the container may be about 51 ml, or may be at least about 51 ml.

     In some embodiments, where sodium sulfite is the antioxidant preservative, the concentration is between 0-70 ppm Sodium Sulfite (Anhydrous). In a specific embodiment of the invention, the formulation referred to as Formulation 10 (F10) containing 0 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 5.1% headspace Oxygen, and about 6 to 9 ml headspace volume showed an stable assay profile (for 29 months with a projection out to 48 months) in terms of Dexamethasone Phosphate equivalent content between about 906 and 1306 mg, and an acceptable impurity profile even in the absence of any sodium sulfite. 
     The present disclosure is directed to glucocorticoid containing pharmaceutical compositions having reduced levels of antioxidants. The ability to reduce the levels of antioxidants, which leads to a reduction in the toxic side effects associated with the use of such antioxidants, is a result of decreasing the headspace volume to total API ratio beyond what is typically used in the industry (Table 1). Accordingly, in a specific aspect of the invention, the ratio of headspace volume [ml] to total API (Dexamethasone Phosphate equivalent) [mg] ratio is between 0 to about 0.00588. In a preferred embodiment, the “(Sulfite:API)×headspace volume”—value is between 0 to about 0.05. In the most preferred embodiment, the “(Sulfite:API)×headspace volume”—value is between 0 to about 0.02. 
     At an accelerated storage condition of 40° C. (75% relative humidity-RH) elimination of Disodium Edetate at two different headspace oxygen levels (0%, 5%), with headspace volume between about 6-9 ml still maintains stability out to about 12 months (measured for 6 months with a projection out to 12 months) with the reduced headspace volume to API ratio of between about 0.0046 to about 0.0099. The latter constitutes a formulation made solely of GRAS excipients. Elimination of both Sodium Sulfite (Anhydrous) and Disodium Edetate is also possible with maintained stability out to 3 months with a headspace volume to API ratio of between about 0.0046 to about 0.0099 at an accelerated storage condition (40° C./75% RH). The result of F10 (at 25° C./60% RH) demonstrates that a shelf-life of at least 29 months or longer can be achieved without any antioxidants present. Moreover, at ICH-defined accelerated storage condition of 40° C./75% RH (tested up to 6 months), while lacking Disodium Edetate, increasing concentrations of Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate (10-40 mg/ml or 10-200 mg/ml) lead to a decrease in total impurities. The ability to employ reduced levels of antioxidants, as disclosed in detail herein, results from a decrease in the headspace volume to API ratio when the compositions are distributed into packaging receptacles as well as due to the finding that Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate becomes increasingly self-protective (against degradation) in higher concentration in a solution. 
     The present disclosure is also directed to use of the pharmaceutical compositions disclosed herein for treatment of patients in need of glucocorticoid drugs. Such treatment includes administration of the compositions to patients in need of anti-inflammatory, immunosuppression, lymphoablation, germinal center elimination, IL-2, IL-7, IL-12 and/or IL-15 elevation, mesenchymal stem cell elevation, G-CSF increase, neutrophil increase, tumor/cancer killing or lymphodepletion (preconditioning) before cell-based therapy, for example. 
     Accordingly, the present invention also provides the aqueous pharmaceutical formulations as disclosed herein for use in a method of treatment.

     In some embodiments, the method is a method of reducing stem cell accumulation in the spleen in a subject, the method comprising administering the formulation to the subject prior to stem cell treatment. Such methods are disclosed, for example, in WO 2012/024519. In some embodiments, the method is a method of enhancing adoptive cellular therapy (ACT) in a subject, the method comprising administering the formulation to the subject prior to adoptive cellular therapy. Such methods are disclosed, for example, in WO 2018/183927. In some embodiments the method is a method of treatment of a lymphocyte mediated disease in a subject, the method comprising administering the formulation to the subject. Such methods are disclosed, for example, in PCT/US2019/054395. 
     As used herein, “patient in need thereof” and “subject in need thereof” may include individuals, e.g., mammals such as humans, canines, felines, porcines, etc., that have been diagnosed with inflammatory, immunosuppressive or cancer disorders. “Treating”, “treatment” or “treat” can refer to the following: alleviating or delaying the appearance of clinical symptoms of a disease or condition in a patient that may be afflicted with or predisposed to the disease or condition, but does not yet experience or display clinical or subclinical symptoms of the disease or condition. 
     In certain embodiments, “treating”, “treat” or “treatment” may refer to preventing the appearance of clinical symptoms of a disease or condition in a patient that may be afflicted with or predisposed to the disease or condition, but does not yet experience or display clinical or subclinical symptoms of the disease or condition. “Treating”, “treat” or “treatment” also refers to inhibiting the disease or condition, e.g., arresting or reducing its development or at least one clinical or subclinical symptom thereof. “Treating”, “treat” or “treatment” further refers to relieving the disease or condition, e.g., causing regression of the disease or condition or at least one of its clinical or subclinical symptoms. The benefit to a patient to be treated may be statistically significant, mathematically significant, or at least perceptible to the patient and/or the physician. Nonetheless, prophylactic (preventive) treatment and therapeutic (curative) treatment are two separate embodiments of the disclosure herein. 
     Other uses of the compositions include use of a stem cell preparation and a therapeutic agent that inhibits binding of the stem cells to germinal centers within lymphoid tissue, in the manufacture of a medicament for regenerating a damaged tissue or organ in a subject who does not require hematological recovery due to cancer therapy, non-myeloablative therapy or myeloablative therapy, including chemotherapy, radiation, and combination treatments, wherein the therapeutic agent does not block the binding of the stem cells to damaged organ or tissue, thereby augmenting the numbers of circulating stem cells that can be attracted to target tissue or organ to regenerate the damaged organ or tissue. 
     Administering” refers to the physical introduction of an agent to a subject, using any of the various methods and delivery systems known to those skilled in the art. Exemplary routes of administration for the formulations disclosed herein include intravenous, intramuscular, subcutaneous, intraperitoneal, spinal or other parenteral routes of administration, for example by injection or infusion. The phrase “parenteral administration” as used herein means modes of administration other than enteral and topical administration, usually by injection, and includes, without limitation, intravenous, intramuscular, intraarterial, intrathecal, intralymphatic, intralesional, intracapsular, intraorbital, intracardiac, intradermal, intraperitoneal, transtracheal, subcutaneous, subcuticular, intraarticular, subcapsular, subarachnoid, intraspinal, epidural and intrasternal injection and infusion, as well as in vivo electroporation. In some embodiments, the formulation is administered via a non-parenteral route, e.g., orally. Other non-parenteral routes include a topical, epidermal or mucosal route of administration, for example, intranasally, vaginally, rectally, sublingually or topically. 
     The term ‘site of injection’ as used herein non-exclusively relates to intra-tumor, or intra-organ such as the kidney or liver or pancreas or heart or lung or brain or spleen or eye, intra-muscular, intro-ocular, intra-striatal, intradermal, by dermal patch, by skin patch, by patch, into the cerebrospinal fluid, into the brain, among others. 
     The present disclosure is also related to methods for production of high concentration glucocorticoid containing pharmaceutical compositions comprising reduced levels of antioxidant preservatives. Such methods comprise the step of mixing the components of the composition and packaging said composition in an environment wherein the headspace volume to API ratio is decreased. 
     In a specific aspect of the invention, the headspace volume to API ratio is 0-0.00588. In such instances, the utilization of such a ratio during packaging permits one to use decreased concentrations of preservatives, such as for example, decreased levels of sulfites. In one aspect, the concentration of a sulfite is 0-70 ppm. For packaging, the headspace volume can be measured by calculation (vial brim volume-stopper volume-fluid fill volume) or by adding a liquid and measuring the volume when all gas has been replaced. 
     Also disclosed is a method for stabilising an aqueous pharmaceutical formulation comprising a glucocorticoid, the method comprising packaging an aqueous pharmaceutical formulation as disclosed herein into a container with a headspace volume (ml) to total glucocorticoid content (mg) ratio of 0.007 or less. In some preferred embodiments, the headspace volume (ml) to total glucocorticoid content (mg) ratio is 0.00588 or less. 
     Other embodiments of the present invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art from consideration of the present specification and practice of the present invention disclosed herein. It is intended that the present specification and examples be considered as exemplary only with a true scope and spirit of the invention being indicated by the following claims and equivalents thereof. 
     Definitions 
     As used herein, “maintaining the assay” means maintaining quantitative chemical attributes of a formulation within acceptable limits as compared to values at the time of manufacture. This can be deteremined, for example, by assaying quantitative chemical attributes of a formulation and comparing these with the same attributes measured at the time of manufacture. In specific cases this refers to assaying levels/amounts of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in the formulation and comparing this to the level/amount at the time of manufacture. In other cases this may also refer to assaying levels/amounts of degradation products of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), or the levels/amounts of unknown impurities in the formulation. In other cases this may also refer to assaying levels/amounts of total impurities in the formulation. 
     The term “and/or” where used herein is to be taken as specific disclosure of each of the two specified features or components with or without the other. Thus, the term “and/or” as used in a phrase such as “A and/or B” herein is intended to include “A and B,” “A or B,” “A” (alone), and “B” (alone). Likewise, the term “and/or” as used in a phrase such as “A, B, and/or C” is intended to encompass each of the following aspects: A, B, and C; A, B, or C; A or C; A or B; B or C; A and C; A and B; Band C; A (alone); B (alone); and C (alone). 
     The use of the alternative (e.g., “or”) should be understood to mean either one, both, or any combination thereof of the alternatives. As used herein, the indefinite articles “a” or “an” should be understood to refer to “one or more” of any recited or enumerated component. 
     As described herein, any concentration range, percentage range, ratio range or integer range is to be understood to include the value of any integer within the recited range and, when appropriate, fractions thereof (such as one-tenth and one-hundredth of an integer), unless otherwise indicated. 
     The term “about” when referring to a measurable value such as an amount or a temporal duration and the like refers to variations of +/−20% or +/−10% or +/−5%. That is, the term “about” refers to a value or composition that is within an acceptable error range for the particular value or composition as determined by one of ordinary skill in the art, which will depend in part on how the value or composition is measured or determined, i.e., the limitations of the measurement system. For example, “about” can mean within 1 or more than 1 standard deviation per the practice in the art. Alternatively, “about” can mean a range of up to 20% (i.e., ±20%). For example, about 3 mg can include any number between 2.3 mg and 3.6 mg (for 20%). Furthermore, particularly with respect to biological systems or processes, the terms can mean up to an order of magnitude or up to 5-fold of a value. When particular values or compositions are provided in the application and claims, unless otherwise stated, the meaning of “about” should be assumed to be within an acceptable error range for that particular value or composition such as one-tenth. 
     In the present disclosure concentrations may be expressed as e.g. grams per litre (g/l) or milligrams per milliliter (mg/ml). Concentrations may also be expressed as parts per million (ppm). One gram in 1000 ml (1 g/l) is equivalent to 1000 ppm. Thus, one milligram in 1000 ml (1 mg/1) is one ppm, and one milligram in 1 ml (1 mg/ml) is 1000 ppm. Similarly, 0.1 mg/ml is 100 ppm, 0.07 mg/ml is 70 ppm, and 0.01 mg/ml is 10 ppm. Those skilled in the art can readily convert between concentrations expressed in mg/ml and ppm.

     Design of Experiment study formulations: 10 of the 16 formulations were monitored for long-term storage (25° C./60% RH). As part of the Design of Experiment study that was monitored for 29 months at 25° C./60% RH, 16 formulations were prepared. Table 4 shows specifications/composition of 10 out of the 16 formulations. Formulation 14 experienced atmospheric exposure by accident and was not used for the study. All formulations were described as clear, yellowish solutions. All formulations contained 26.23 mg/ml DSP, which is equivalent to 24 mg/ml dexamethasone phosphate (DP) as well as 0.05 mg/ml Disodium EDTA and 10 mg/ml Sodium Citrate. All formulations were packaged using the AVM0703 headspace volume (ml) to dexamethasone content (mg) ratio outlined in Table 1 (24 mg/ml dexamethasone phosphate; 51 ml vial; 7.2 ml headspace volume; headspace volume (ml) to dexamethasone content (mg) ratio of about 0.00588).

     AVM0703—Design of Experiment—six formulations were monitored for over 18 months (25° C./60% RH). Six formulations with varying levels of Sodium Sulfite (Anhydrous) and Headspace Oxygen which were tested for stability at 18 months. Aside from F15 (atmospheric Oxygen level of 20.9%), all 5 other formulations (F2, 4, 9, 10 and 11) were within the required API assay or impurity thresholds. Those six were selected from 15 formulations that were manufactured for the DoE study to assess those 2 factors: 13 formulations (F1-F13) to assess Sodium Sulfite (Anhydrous) in a range of 0 to 0.07 mg/mL and Headspace Oxygen in a range of 0 to 10%, while 2 additional formulations (F15, F16) were manufactured to assess stability at atmospheric Oxygen (20.9%) using 0.035 or 0.07 mg/ml, respectively. Results are shown in Table 5.

     AVM0703—Design of Experiment—nine formulations were monitored for over 24 months (25° C./60% RH). Nine formulations with varying levels of Sodium Sulfite (Anhydrous) and Headspace Oxygen which were tested for stability at 24 months. Aside from F15 (atmospheric Oxygen level of 20.9%), all other 8 formulations (F2, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12) were within the required API assay or impurity thresholds. Those nine were selected from 15 formulations that were manufactured for the DoE study to assess those 2 factors: 13 formulations (F1-F13) to assess Sodium Sulfite (Anhydrous) in a range of 0 to 0.07 mg/mL and Headspace Oxygen in a range of 0 to 10%, while 2 additional formulations (F15, F16) were manufactured to assess stability at atmospheric Oxygen (20.9%) using 0.035 or 0.07 mg/ml, respectively. Results are shown in Table 6.

     AVM0703—Design of Experiment—nine formulations were monitored for over 29 months (25° C./60% RH). Nine formulations with varying levels of Sodium Sulfite (Anhydrous) and Headspace Oxygen which were tested for stability at 29 months. Aside from F15 (atmospheric Oxygen level of 20.9%), all other 8 formulations (F2, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12) were within the required API assay or impurity thresholds. Those nine were selected from 15 formulations that were manufactured for the DoE study to assess those 2 factors: 13 formulations (F1-F13) to assess Sodium Sulfite (Anhydrous) in a range of 0 to 0.07 mg/mL and Headspace Oxygen in a range of 0 to 10%, while 2 additional formulations (F15, F16) were manufactured to assess stability at atmospheric Oxygen (20.9%) using 0.035 or 0.07 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite (Anhydrous), respectively. Results are shown in Table 7.

     Design of experiment result for 29 months for the active pharmaceutical ingredient API in the AVM0703 formulation. ( FIG. 1 ) Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate (DSP). Six formulations with varying levels of Sodium Sulfite (Anhydrous) and Headspace Oxygen are tested for stability. Formulation 2 and 4 (F2, 4) are target point formulations with 0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite (Anhydrous) and 5% Headspace Oxygen (95% nitrogen). The result demonstrates that the formulations are within a range of 95-105% DSP content for the tested values of Sodium Sulfite (Anhydrous) of 0 (F10), 0.035 (F2, 4, 11, 15) and 0.07 mg/ml (F9) at 5% (F2, 4, 9, 10), 10% (F11) and 20.90% (F15) headspace oxygen, not dropping below 95% for any formulation tested (25° C./60% RH). 
     Design of experiment result for 29 months for the “Impurity a” (free Dexamethasone) in the AVM0703 formulation. ( FIG. 2 ) The result demonstrates that all the tested formulations are within a range of NMT (not more than) 1% (initially 0.5%, then increased to 1%) for free Dexamethasone (Imp A). Tested values of Sodium Sulfite (Anhydrous) were 0 (F10), 0.035 (F2, 4, 11, 15) and 0.07 mg/ml (F9) at 5% (F2, 4, 9, 10), 10% (F11) and 20.90% (F15) headspace oxygen.

     Example 3 
     Extended DoE—Stability of formulations without Sodium Sulfite/Disodium Edetate. Design of experiment series (up to 6 months at 40° C./75% RH) to assess the stability of the formulation without the presence of either sodium sulfite or EDTA at increasing levels of headspace oxygen (O %, 5%, 10% and 15%): Ten formulations with the specifications shown in Table 8 were manufactured (GLP grade) and tested for stability. 26.23 mg/ml DSP equals 24 mg/ml Dexamethasone Phosphate. All formulations were packaged using the AVM0703 headspace volume (ml) to dexamethasone content (mg) ratio outlined in Table 1 (24 mg/ml dexamethasone phosphate; 51 ml vial; 7.2 ml headspace volume; headspace volume (ml) to dexamethasone content (mg) ratio of about 0.00588).

     Design of experiment (Extended DoE) result for 1 month, either lacking sodium sulfite or disodium edetate or both (Table 9). Ten (all: 24 mg/ml as Dexamethasone Phosphate equivalent which corresponds to 26.23 DSP mg/ml; 10 mg/ml sodium citrate) formulations with two different levels (0 or 0.035 mg/ml) of sodium sulfite (anhydrous), two different levels of disodium edetate (0 or 0.5 mg/ml) and four different levels of headspace oxygen (0, 5, 10, 15%) were tested for stability (40° C./75% RH). Formulations 1-1, 1-2, 1-3 and 1-4 lack sodium sulfite (anhydrous), contain 0.5 mg/ml disodium edetate and increasing amounts of headspace oxygen (1-1: 0%, 1-2: 5%, 1-3: 10%, 1-4: 15%). Formulations 2-1, 2-2, 2-3 and 2-4 lack disodium edetate, contain 0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite (anhydrous) and increasing amounts of headspace oxygen (2-1: 0%, 2-2: 5%, 2-3: 10%, 2-4: 15%). Formulation 3-1 contains 0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite (anhydrous) and 0.5 mg/ml disodium edetate, but lacks headspace oxygen. Formulation 4-1 lacks sodium sulfite (anhydrous) and disodium edetate and contains 5% headspace oxygen. The result demonstrates that all ten formulations are within a range of 95-105% for the DSP content as well as within the set thresholds for the known (A: not more than 1%; B, C, D, F and G: not more than 0.5%) and unknown impurities (not more than 0.2%), with ‘Total Impurity’ values far below the threshold of 3% (storage conditions are 40° C./75% RH, inverted). 
     Design of experiment (Extended DoE) result for 1, 3, and 6 months, either lacking sodium sulfite or disodium edetate or both ( FIGS. 28-44 ). While all ten formulations passed the description at 3 months, only the following formulations passed the description as a clear solution at the 6 months stability time point: (batch #-formulation #) 2-1 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0 mg/ml EDTA, 0% headspace oxygen), 2-2 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0 mg/ml EDTA, 5% headspace oxygen) and 3-1 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0.5 mg/ml EDTA, 0% headspace oxygen). All others showed precipitation at 6 months. Those three formulations (2-1, 2-2 and 3-1) were all within the acceptance criteria of the DSP assay (95-105%). 
       FIG. 28 : Design of experiment result for the DSP assay (up to 6 months at 40° C./75% RH; 26.23 mg/ml DSP=24 mg/ml DP) to assess the stability of the formulation without the presence of either sodium sulfite or EDTA at increasing levels of headspace oxygen (═HO: 0%, 5%, 10% and 15%): All ten formulations contained 26.23 mg/ml DSP, which is equivalent to 24 mg/ml Dexamethasone Phosphate (DP). While all ten formulations passed the description at 3 months, only the following formulations passed the description as a clear solution at the 6 months stability time point: (batch #-formulation #) 2-1 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0 mg/ml EDTA, 0% headspace oxygen), 2-2 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0 mg/ml EDTA, 5% headspace oxygen) and 3-1 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0.5 mg/ml EDTA, 0% headspace oxygen). All others showed precipitation at 6 months. The top chart shows the result of the DSP assay with the absolute values in percent, while the bottom chart depicts the difference in percent at 1, 3 and 6 months subtracted from the 0 months value (manufacture). The result shows that formulation 2-1 shows the least degradation of all formulations at the 6 months time point while still passing description (no precipitation). 
       FIGS. 29 &amp; 30 : Design of experiment result for the impurities A and B (up to 6 months at 40° C./75% RH; 26.23 mg/ml DSP=24 mg/ml DP): While all ten formulations passed the description at 3 months, only the following formulations passed the description as a clear solution at the 6 months stability time point: (batch #-formulation #) 2-1 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0 mg/ml EDTA, 0% headspace oxygen), 2-2 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0 mg/ml EDTA, 5% headspace oxygen) and 3-1 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0.5 mg/ml EDTA, 0% headspace oxygen). All others showed precipitation at 6 months.  FIG. 29  shows the result of impurity A, while  FIG. 30  depicts impurity B. The result shows that formulation 2-1 showed the lowest accumulation of impurity A (Dexamethasone) of all formulations at the 6 months time point. Impurity B was not increasing for any of the formulations. 
       FIGS. 31 &amp; 32 : Design of experiment result for the impurites C and D (up to 6 months at 40° C./75% RH; 26.23 mg/ml DSP=24 mg/ml DP): While all ten formulations passed the description at 3 months, only the following formulations passed the description as a clear solution at the 6 months stability time point: (batch #-formulation #) 2-1 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0 mg/ml EDTA, 0% headspace oxygen), 2-2 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0 mg/ml EDTA, 5% headspace oxygen) and 3-1 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0.5 mg/ml EDTA, 0% headspace oxygen). All others showed precipitation at 6 months.  FIG. 31  shows the result of impurity C, while  FIG. 32  depicts impurity D. The result shows that the formulations with the highest headspace oxygen value showed the lowest accumulation of impurity C of all formulations at the 6 months time point. Impurity D increased the most from the 3 month time point to the 6 month time point for all formulations. Formulation 3-1 with sulfite and EDTA present at 0% headspace oxygen (HO) had the lowest value at 6 months of those 3 formulations that passed the description without a precipitate. 
       FIGS. 33 &amp; 34 : Design of experiment result for the impurites F and G (up to 6 months at 40° C./75% RH; 26.23 mg/ml DSP=24 mg/ml DP): While all ten formulations passed the description at 3 months, only the following formulations passed the description as a clear solution at the 6 months stability time point: (batch #-formulation #) 2-1 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0 mg/ml EDTA, 0% headspace oxygen), 2-2 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0 mg/ml EDTA, 5% headspace oxygen) and 3-1 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0.5 mg/ml EDTA, 0% headspace oxygen). All others showed precipitation at 6 months.  FIG. 33  shows the result of impurity F, while  FIG. 34  depicts impurity G. The result shows that none of the formulations increase for impurity F beyond the 0.2% threshold. Regarding impurity G, formulation 2-1 showed the lowest accumulation of all formulations at the 6 months time point. 
       FIGS. 35 &amp; 36 : Design of experiment result for the unidentified impurity with the highest value and the total impurities (up to 6 months at 40° C./75% RH; 26.23 mg/ml DSP=24 mg/ml DP): While all ten formulations passed the description at 3 months, only the following formulations passed the description as a clear solution at the 6 months stability time point: (batch #-formulation #) 2-1 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0 mg/ml EDTA, 0% headspace oxygen), 2-2 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0 mg/ml EDTA, 5% headspace oxygen) and 3-1 (0.035 mg/ml sodium sulfite, 0.5 mg/ml EDTA, 0% headspace oxygen). All others showed precipitation at 6 months.  FIG. 35  shows the result for the unidentified impurity with the highest value, while  FIG. 36  depicts total impurities, which are the sum total of all previous impurities (A, B, C, D, F, G, highest unidentified impurity) as well as additionally all other unidentified impurities (with different retention times) that are of lower value. The result shows that the two sulfite formulations (of all three without precipitation at 6 months) lacking EDTA (2-1, 2-2) show the lowest values of the highest unidentified impurity. Likewise, these same two formulations (2-1 and 2-2) are characterized by the lowest amount of total impurities. Therefore, for this formulation no EDTA is needed at a storage condition of 40° C./75% RH at 0 or 5% headspace oxygen. 
       FIG. 37 : DSP result and projection of additional Design of Experiment formulations 2-1 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0 mg/ml EDTA and 0% Oxygen headspace), 2-2 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0 mg/ml EDTA and 5% headspace oxygen) and 3-1 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0.5 mg/ml EDTA and 0% headspace oxygen). The projection with 4 measured (up to 6 months) data points shows for the formulations that the Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate content is expected to be at 95% for 12 months (40° C./75% RH) for the formulation 2-1, while 2-2 and 3-1 are expected to be at a level of about 93% and 93.5% respectively. The result shows that EDTA is not necessary to achieve a better stability for the formulation. 
       FIG. 38 : Impurity A result and projection of additional Design of Experiment formulations 2-1 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0 mg/ml EDTA and 0% Oxygen headspace), 2-2 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0 mg/ml EDTA and 5% headspace oxygen) and 3-1 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0.5 mg/ml EDTA and 0% headspace oxygen). The projection with 4 measured (up to 6 months) data points shows for the formulations that the Impurity A level is expected to be below 1% for 12 months (40° C./75% RH) for the formulation 2-1 and 2-2, while for formulation 3-1 it is expected to reach 1% at about 9 months. The result shows that EDTA is not necessary to achieve a better stability for the formulation.

The projection with 4 measured (up to 6 months) data points shows for the formulations that the Impurity C level is expected to be at 0.5% for 12 months (40° C./75% RH) for the formulation 2-1, while being slightly below 0.5% for formulation 2-2 and 3-1 at this time point. 
       FIG. 40 : Impurity D result and projection of additional Design of Experiment formulations 2-1 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0 mg/ml EDTA and 0% Oxygen headspace), 2-2 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0 mg/ml EDTA and 5% headspace oxygen) and 3-1 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0.5 mg/ml EDTA and 0% headspace oxygen). The projection with 4 measured (up to 6 months) data points shows that the Impurity D level is expected to be below 0.5% at 12 months (40° C./75% RH) for all 3 formulations. 
       FIG. 41 : Impurity F result and projection of additional Design of Experiment formulations 2-1 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0 mg/ml EDTA and 0% Oxygen headspace), 2-2 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0 mg/ml EDTA and 5% headspace oxygen) and 3-1 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0.5 mg/ml EDTA and 0% headspace oxygen). The projection with 4 measured (up to 6 months) data points shows that the Impurity F level is expected to be below 0.5% at 12 months (40° C./75% RH) for all 3 formulations. 
       FIG. 42 : Impurity G result and projection of additional Design of Experiment formulations 2-1 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0 mg/ml EDTA and 0% Oxygen headspace), 2-2 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0 mg/ml EDTA and 5% headspace oxygen) and 3-1 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0.5 mg/ml EDTA and 0% headspace oxygen). The projection with 4 measured (up to 6 months) data points shows that the Impurity G level is expected to be below 0.5% at 12 months (40° C./75% RH) for all 3 formulations. 
       FIG. 43 : Unidentified Impurity result and projection of additional Design of Experiment formulations 2-1 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0 mg/ml EDTA and 0% Oxygen headspace), 2-2 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0 mg/ml EDTA and 5% headspace oxygen) and 3-1 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0.5 mg/ml EDTA and 0% headspace oxygen). The projection with 4 measured (up to 6 months) data points shows that the level of the Unidentified Impurity is expected to be below 0.5% at 12 months (40° C./75% RH) for all 3 formulations. Moreover, the two formulations lacking EDTA (2-1 and 2-2) show an expected level even below 0.2% at 12 months. 
       FIG. 44 : Total Impurities result and projection of additional Design of Experiment formulations 2-1 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0 mg/ml EDTA and 0% Oxygen headspace), 2-2 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0 mg/ml EDTA and 5% headspace oxygen) and 3-1 (0.035 mg/ml Sodium Sulfite Anhydrous, 0.5 mg/ml EDTA and 0% headspace oxygen). The projection with 4 measured (up to 6 months) data points shows that the level of the Total Impurities is expected to be below 3% at 12 months (40° C./75% RH) for the two formulations lacking the EDTA (2-1, 2-2), while reaching 3% for the formulation 3-1 with sulfite and EDTA present. The result demonstrates that EDTA is not necessary to increase the stability of the formulation. 
     Example 4 
     Six formulations with 3 varying levels of DSP (10, 30 and 45 mg/ml, equivalent to 9.15, 27.45 and 41.17 Dexamethsone Phosphate (DP)) with or without 0.5 mg/ml EDTA, respectively, were manufactured. The compositions of these six formulations is outlined in Tables 10 and 11. The formulations in Batch 1 and 2 (Table 10) were packaged with a headspace volume (ml) to dexamethasone content (mg) of 0.01543 (10 mg/ml dexamethasone sodium phosphate, equivalent to 9.15 mg/ml dexamethasone phosphate; 51 ml vial; 7.2 ml headspace volume; headspace volume (ml) to dexamethasone content (mg) ratio of about 0.01543). The formulations in Batch 3 and 4 (Table 10) were packaged with a headspace volume (ml) to dexamethasone content (mg) of 0.0514 (30 mg/ml dexamethasone sodium phosphate, equivalent to 27.45 mg/ml dexamethasone phosphate; 51 ml vial; 7.2 ml headspace volume; headspace volume (ml) to dexamethasone content (mg) ratio of about 0.00514). The formulations in Batch 1 and 2 (Table 11) were packaged with a headspace volume (ml) to dexamethasone content (mg) of 0.00343 (45 mg/ml dexamethasone sodium phosphate, equivalent to 41.17 mg/ml dexamethasone phosphate; 51 ml vial; 7.2 ml headspace volume; headspace volume (ml) to dexamethasone content (mg) ratio of about 0.00343).

     Results of the additional design of experiment for increasing concentrations of Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate (DSP). Six formulations with 3 varying levels of DSP (10, 30 and 45 mg/ml, equivalent to 9.15, 27.45 and 41.17 Dexamethsone Phosphate (DP)) with or without 0.5 mg/ml EDTA, respectively, were manufactured and put on stability (50 ml amber vial; 0, 1, 3, 6 months at 40° C./75% RH). All 6 formulations contained 5% headspace oxygen (95% nitrogen) and lacked sulfite. The results demonstrates that the formulations with an increasing DSP concentration form less total impurities over time. An overview of these results is shown in Table 12.

       FIG. 45  &amp;  FIG. 46 : Results of the additional design of experiment for increasing concentrations of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in the AVM0703 formulation: Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate (DSP). Six formulations with 3 varying levels of DSP (10, 30 and 45 mg/ml) with or without 0.5 mg/ml EDTA, respectively, were manufactured and put on stability (50 ml amber vial; 0, 1, 3, 6 months at 40° C./75% RH). All 6 formulations contained 5% headspace oxygen (95% nitrogen) and lacked sulfite. While there is a clear decrease of impurities C and G for all formulations over 6 months, there seems to be no clear trend for impurity A in the formulations including EDTA or impurity D in the formulations lacking EDTA. For impurity A in the formulation lacking EDTA there is an initial increase visible that eventually stagnates, while for impurity D in the formulations including EDTA there is a visible increase over time up to ˜0.2%. 
       FIG. 47 : Design of experiment result (0, 1, 3, 6 months at 40° C./75% RH) for increasing concentrations of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in the AVM0703 formulation: Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate (DSP). Six formulations with 3 varying levels of DSP (10, 30 and 45 mg/ml, equivalent to 9.15, 27.45 and 41.17 Dexamethsone Phosphate), with or without 0.5 mg/ml EDTA and each containing 5% headspace oxygen (95% nitrogen) were tested for stability. All six formulations lacked sulfite. The top chart includes all formulations, while the middle and bottom each depict the 3 formulations either with (middle) or without EDTA (bottom). The formulations with the highest DSP content of 45 mg/ml still passed the description at 3 months, while all other failed and showed a precipitate. The result demonstrates that the formulations with an increasing DSP concentration form less total impurities over time, independent of the presence or absence of EDTA.
