Application Number:	14/879,847
Patent Claims:	1. An aqueous formulation of adalimumab exhibiting long term stability comprising: (a) 20 to 150 mg of adalimumab; (b) a buffer selected from the group consisting of histidine, succinate, phosphate, acetate, maleate and tartrate buffers, including combinations thereof; (c) a polyol; (d) a salt; selected from sodium chloride, sodium sulfate and potassium chloride; and (e) a surfactant; wherein the formulation has a pH of 5 to 6 and is free of citrate buffer. 2. The formulation of claim 1 wherein the amount of adalimumab is about 40 mg. 3. The formulation of claim 1, wherein the buffer is at a concentration of from about 5 mM to about 50 mM. 4. The formulation of claim 1, wherein the buffer comprises acetate. 5. The formulation of claim 1, wherein the polyol comprises sorbitol, mannitol or trehalose. 6. The formulation of claim 5, wherein the polyol comprises mannitol. 7. The formulation of claim 6 wherein the amount of mannitol is up to about 300 mM. 8. The formulation of claim 1, wherein the amount of mannitol is greater than about 200 mM. 9. The formulation of claim 1, wherein the salt is sodium chloride. 10. The formulation of claim 9, wherein the amount of sodium chloride is less than about 100 mM. 11. The formulation of claim 1, wherein the surfactant comprises polysorbate 80. 12. The formulation of claim 1, wherein the amount of the surfactant is from about 0.01 to about 0.1 wt % by total weight of the formulation. 13. The formulation of claim 1, wherein the formulation has a pH of 5.2. 14. An aqueous formulation of adalimumab exhibiting long term stability comprising: (a) 20 to 150 mg of adalimumab; (b) acetate buffer; (c) a polyol; (d) and polysorbate 80; wherein the formulation has a pH of 5 to 6 and is free of citrate buffer. 15. The formulation of claim 14, wherein the amount of adalimumab is about 40 mg. 16. The formulation of claim 14, wherein the polyol is present in an amount of up to about 300 mM and is selected from the group consisting of mannitol, sorbitol and trehalose. 17. The formulation of claim 16, wherein the polyol is sorbitol or trehalose. 18. The formulation of claim 14 further comprising a salt. 19. The formulation of claim 18, wherein said salt is sodium chloride or sodium sulfate. 20. The formulation of claim 19, wherein the salt is sodium chloride in an amount less than about 100 mM. 21. The formulation of claim 14, wherein said formulation does not contain sodium chloride. 22. An aqueous formulation of adalimumab exhibiting long term stability comprising: (a) about 40 mg of adalimumab; (b) acetate buffer; (c) mannitol in an amount of up to 300 mM; (d) sodium chloride in an amount up to about 100 mM; (e) polysorbate 80; wherein the formulation has a pH of 5 to 6 and is free of citrate buffer. 23. The formulation of claim 22, free of tartrate, maleate, and succinate buffers. 24. The formulation of claim 23, wherein the formulation is free of histidine buffer. 25. The formulation of claim 22, wherein the amount of mannitol is greater than about 200 mM.
