Role of Complement Activation in Hypersensitivity Reactions to Doxil and Hynic Peg Liposomes: Experimental and Clinical Studies

Abstract: Pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (Doxil) and 99mTc-HYNIC PEG liposomes (HPL) were reported earlier to cause hypersensitivity reactions (HSRs) in a substantial percentage of patients treated i.v. with these formulations. Here we report that (1) Doxil, HPL, pegylated phosphatidylethanolamine (PEG-PE)-containing empty liposomes matched with Doxil and HPL in size and lipid composition, and phosphatidylglycerol (PG)-containing negatively charged vesicles were potent C activators in human serum in vitro, whereas smal… Show more

“…Also, it is important to note that no adverse reactions were observed in the animals from the final 3-mg/kg dose when antibodies were present. This result contrasts with the adverse reactions observed with repeated administration of lipid-based systems that are associated with the presence of antibodies (22,23,(25)(26)(27)(28).…”

“…PEGylated lipid systems carrying small molecule drugs have been used clinically for years, and these lipid-based systems are capable of causing hypersensitivity reactions and complement activation (22,23). Additionally, repeated administration of lipid-based delivery vehicles has the potential to cause phospholipidosis (24) and other lipidrelated toxicities.…”

“…These results show that the multicycle animal data are predictive of the multicycle data observed in humans. In contrast, PEGylated liposomes have produced hypersensitivity reactions, complement activation, and other side effects that are not observed from the drug alone (23,24). Additionally, cycle-dependent PK parameters have been observed for PEGylated doxorubicin in humans (i.e., the clearance decreased over three cycles of treatment) (25).…”

“…Further studies are needed to establish the impact of dose and size dependency of a liposome, e.g., Doxil (Speth et al, 1988) on CBF/blood volume changes and the potential overlapping of CBF autoregulation and direct vasoactive effect of complement activation (Szebeni et al, , 2002.…”
