Abstract

DaxibotulinumtoxinA-lanm for injection (DAXI) is a unique US Food and Drug Administration-approved product comprising daxibotulinumtoxinA and a stabilizing excipient peptide (RTP004). DAXI has a longer-labeled shelf life (72 h) following reconstitution than other botulinum toxin type A products. Here, we report the stability and microbial control of reconstituted DAXI when stored at 2 °C-8 °C over a period of 36 days (Study 1) and 7 days (Study 2) following reconstitution with unpreserved or preserved saline. The pH and biological activity of reconstituted DAXI in the 50 U/vial and 100 U/vial formats remained stable at the final assessed time point in both preserved and unpreserved saline when refrigerated (2 °C-8 °C). No changes in recoverable 150 kDa neurotoxin (measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) were observed over 6 days of refrigeration. Bacterial growth or pathogen proliferation was not observed in DAXI reconstituted in preserved or unpreserved saline in both studies.
