Description

FOOD AND/OR PHARMA~UTICAL COMPOSITION HAVING A LOW
POLYAMINE CONTENT

This invention relates to the food industry and the pharmaceutical industry.
Polyamines, and particularly putrescine (I), spermidine (II) and spermine (III) are present in all cells.
NH3 - ( CH2 ) 4 - NH3 ( I ) +NH3 - ( CH2 ) 3 - NH - ( CH2 ) 4 - NH3 ( I I ) NH3 - (CH2)3 - NH - (CH2)4 - NH - (CH2)3 - NH3+ (III) Although it has been believed for a long time that these molecules do not perform any physiological role and only represent a terminal step in tissular catabolism, a great deal of scientific work has shown that polyamines derived from decarboxylation of ornithine were actually biologically active molecules capable of acting at different and important levels in the life of the cell.
These molecules are found not only inside cells, they also occur in circulation within biological fluids in the organism such as blood, and are derived from three main sources:
- physiological cellular proliferation (growth and/or renewal of cells making up the organism), and tumorous cellulal proliferation, - food, - intestinal bacteria.
Intracellular polyamines are derived from a finely regulated metabolism related to the cellular cycle, rather than being obtained from passive transmembrane exchanges with biological fluids in the organism. An increase in the activity of the enzyme responsible for the main intracellular anabolic tract of polyamines, ornithine-decarboxylase (ODC) and therefore of the concentrations in putrescine, spermidine and spermine have actually been observed at the end of phase Gl and at the beginning of phase S, and at the beginning of phase G2 in the cellular replication cycle. The implication of the metabolism of polyamines in cellular replication and therefore in proliferative processes means that this metabolism is one of the preferred targets of anti-proliferative drugs, and is also the source of new circulation signals capable of revealing the existence of a neoplastic process within an organism.
It has been observed that tumorous growth is generally accompanied by a very significant increase in the intracellular anabolism of polyamines that are then found in increasing quantity in biological fluids.
Although the exact role of circulating polyamines as parameters involved in homeostatic regulation (or deregulation) of cellular proliferation is not yet clear, it has been demonstrated that the polyamine content of red cells may be considered and used as tumorous hyperplasic markers (see "Biological significance of circulating polyamines in oncology" -CA21 654~4 Moulinoux, J.-Ph. Quemener, V. and Khan, N.A.
Cellular and molecular biology - 37(8), 773-783, 1991).
Furthermore, this work has shown that circulating polyamines originating either from the cells_themselves or from the gastro-intestinal tract (food, intestinal bacteria) participate in maintaining the malignant proliferative condition.
Several ornithine-decarboxylase inhibitors are known In the current state of the art, and particularly irreversible selective inhibitors of this enzyme such as a-difluoromethylornithine (a-DFMO) marketed by the Marion Merrell Dow company under the name Eflornithine~. However, isolated administration of a-DFMO to patients or animals suffering from cancer without any other treatment has proved to be ineffective in halting the progress of a malignant tumor, although this polyamine synthesis inhibitor completely inhibited the proliferation of cancerous cells in vitro, while very significantly reducing intracellular contents of putrescine and spermidine.
The inability of a-DFMO to reduce the proliferation of malignant cells in vivo is very probably related to the fact that in the organism, cancerous cells restore the intracellular quantity of polyamines necessary to maintain their proliferation by capturing polyamines present in the extra-cellular environment, in other words in the various biological fluids such as blood.
This assumption was confirmed by work done by Person et al (Cancer Research, 1988, No. 48, pp. 4807 to 4811) 4 CA21 654~4 which demonstrated that unlike what was observed with L1210 abnormal cells, mice inoculated with muted L1210 cells made incapable of capturing extracellular polyamines responded well to a treatment inhibiting intracellular polyamines biosynthesis using a-DFMO.
Furthermore, various work has been carried out to show that joint administration to animals of:
- food with no polyamines, - a-DFMO, - a polyamine-oxydase (PAO) inhibitor eliminating oxidizing retroconversion of spermidine and spermine into putrescine, and - neomycine and metronidazole, almost entirely inhibits the tumorous progress of Lewis pulmonary carcinoma 3LL (Seiler N. et al, Cancer Research, 1990, No. 50, pp. 5077-5083), human glioblastoma U251 (Moulinoux J-Ph. et al, Anticancer Research, 1991, No. 11, pp. 175-180), Dunning prostate adenocarcinoma MAT-Lylu (Moulinoux J-Ph. et al, Journal of Urology, 1991, No. 146, pp. 1408, 1412) and human neuroblastoma neuro 2a (Quemener et al, "Polyamines in the gastro-intestinal tract", Dowling R.H., Falsch I.R.
and Laser C Ed., Kluwer Academic Publishers Boston, 1992, pp. 375-385).
It was also demonstrated in animals that polyamine depletion could considerably potentialize the anti-proliferative effects of conventional anti-tumorous drugs (methotrexate, cyclophosphamide, vindesine) while increasing the survival time of animals and possibly reducing the quantities of administered drugs while ~` _ 5 CA21654~4 maintaining the same anti-tumorous effects (Quemener V.
et al, "Polyamine deprivation enhances antitumorous efficacy of chemotherapy", Anticancer Research No. 12, 1992, pp. 1447-1454).
The object of the invention is to provide a composition administrable to man as food, food complement and/or a therapeutic nutrition product, in order to overcome the inefficiency of treatment in man done hitherto by isolated administration of a-DFMO.
More specifically, the object was to develop a composition efficient in man and, particularly, an accurate formulation of components of the inventive composition allowing a real synergy of caused effects, in man, by reducing outer polyamine contents and by inhibiting intracellular synthesis of these compounds.
This object is reached by a composition that can be ingested by man, characterized in that it consists of a nutrition mixture with a low polyamine content less than 50 picomoles/g of putrescine, of spermidine, of spermine and cadaverine, containing in percentage by dry weight with respect to the total dry weight : 10~
to 35~ of lipids, 8~ to 30~ of proteins, 35~ to 80~ of glucides, and up to 10~ of a mixture of vitamins, minerals and electrolytes.
This composition may be presented in dry form to be dissolved extemporaneously in a neutral vehicle suitable for oral or enteral administration, or in the form of a liquid ready for use. In all cases the composition is presented in sterile form.

-` 6 CA21654~4 This composition is particularly suitable for man and forms a food substitute that can efficiently create polyamine deprivation in patients. This composition could satisfactorily feed a patient whil~ creating polyamine deprivation, firstly by inhibiting intracellular polyamines synthesis and secondly by reducing the input of exogenic polyamines.
This composition brings, every day, at least 60 times less putrescine, 200 times less cadaverine, 700 less spermidine and spermine with respect to the human natural food which has the lowest polyamine content, but which nevertheless suits human nutrition needs.
This composition would strongly inhibit the endogenic synthesis of polyamines and very significantly reduce the input of these substances since its various constituents contain almost no polyamines. In order to also reduce polyamine inputs due to intestinal bacteria, this composition could be administered at the same time as a decontamination of the gastro-intestinal tract using antibiotic(s) and/or antiparasite product, for example such as neomycine and metronidazole. It would also be possible to consider including this type of antibiotic and/or antiparasite product directly into said composition, while remaining within the scope of the invention.
Nutrients used in the food composition according to the invention have a good nutritional value, even for sick patients.

- ~ 7 CA2 165454 The quantity of water used to make the composition is determined such that the composition is more or less liquid and can be easily ingested by the patient.
The percentage by weight of the mixture composed of vitamins, minerals and electrolytes is chosen so as to satisfy the necessary proportions, known to the expert in the subject, in a balanced diet.
This composition could be administered at the same time as at least one intracellular polyamines synthesis inhibitor.
In one attractive alternative of the invention, said composition is enriched with not more than 15~ by weight, and preferably between 0.2~ and 7~ by weight with respect to the total dry weight of the composition, of at least one intracellular polyamines synthesis inhibitor.
Usable ODC inhibitors are chosen particularly among the following compounds:
Pyri doxal phospha te antagonists - L-canaline - N-(5'-phosphopyridoxyl) ornithine Compe titi ve inhibi tors - a-hydrazino-ornithine - DL-a-hydrazino-~-aminovaleric acid - a-methylornithine (a-MO) - trans-3-dehydro-DL-ornithine -1.4-diamino-trans-2-butene -1.4-diaminobutanone Inhibi tors cont~; n i ng d i amin e -1.3-diaminopropane -1.3-diamino-2-propanol - bis(ethyl)spermine Suicide and irreversible inhibi tors - 2-difluoromethylomithine (DFMO) - monofluoromethylornithine - 2-monofluoromethyldehydro-ornithine - 2-monofluoromethyldehydro-ornithine methyl ester - 5-hexyne-1.4-diamine - trans-hex-2-en-5-yne-1.4-diamine - monofluoromethylputrescine - difluoromethylputrescine - a-allenylputrescine - (2R, 5R)-6-heptyne-2.5-diamine Among these inhibitors, competitive inhibitors are particularly preferred and particularly a-methylornithine (a-MO).
a-methylornithine has many advantages for the purposes proposed in this document. a-MO has the advantage of being an easily-synthesizable natural substance and with a high inhibition constant.
a-methylornithine also has the advantage that it inhibits the synthesis of polyamines in Escherischia coli, the most common bacteria naturally present in the intestinal tract, which in particular is not the case for a-DFMO.
Thus the use of a food composition according to the invention containing a-methylornithine as an - intracellular polyamines synthesis inhibitor, can - g CA216~454 reduce the exogenic input of polyamines by intestinal bacteria without needing to use an anti-biotherapy concomittently with administration of this composition, or at least reduce the administered dose of antibiotics.
Finally, a-MO has the advantage of being a simple competitive inhibitor of decarboxylase ornithine (which is contrary to methods currently being explored by the international scientific community) and strongly reduces the risk of the organism becoming accustomed by mutation leading to enhanced cellular resistance.
The original concept of the invention gave priority to searching for a synergy effect between several factors, namely particularly inhibition of the synthesis of intracellular polyamines and the depleted total input of these substances. From this point of view, it also appears that the best inhibitor is a-MO.
According to one alternative, the composition according to the invention is enriched in vitamins, particularly those provided by intestinal bacteria in a healthy human. The antibiotherapy that may accompany administration of said composition may also reduce the input of some vitamins. In this case it may be necessary to enrich the composition according to the invention with these vitamins in order to avoid causing a vitamin shortage caused by prolonged administration of said composition. In particular, it may be useful to enrich the composition in vitamins or in vitamin - lo CA2 165454 derivatives. Some derivatives of vitamin A (retinoic acid) are actually inhibitors of the ODC activity.
In preference, glucides of the composition belong to the group containing glucose polymers, maltodextrines, saccharose, modified starches, monohydrated glucose, dehydrated glucose syrup, glycerol monostearate and mixtures thereof. These glucides are actually digestible even in cases of digestive pathology or secondary functional anomalies caused by an anti-cancer treatment (chemotherapy or radiotherapy).
According to one alternative of the invention, proteins used belong to the group containing soluble milk proteins, soya proteins, serum peptides, powdered egg yolk, potassium caseinate, unphosphorylated peptides, casein peptides, mixed caseinate, soya isolate and mixtures thereof.
Preferably, lipids belong to the group containing butter oil, peanut oil, medium chain triglycerides, grape seed oil, soya oil, onager oil and mixtures thereof. Said lipids are advantageously composed of a mixture of at least one animal oil, at least one vegetable oil and glycerol stearate.
According to one alternative of the invention, said composition forms a daily food ration for one person and includes:
- possibly said intracellular polyamines synthesis inhibitor, with an amount of less than 50 g, and preferably between 1 and 10 g, - 11 CA2 1~5454 - between 75 g and 500 g of glucides, - between 20 g and 185 g of lipids, - between 20 g and 225 g of proteins, - sufficient quantities of vitamins, minerals and electrolytes to satisfy the daily nutritional needs of a human being.
Quantities of vitamins, minerals and electrolytes used are known to the expert in the subject and may easily be found in the literature (for example see "Apports nutritionnels conseillés" (Recommended nutritional inputs), Dupin, Abraham and Giachetti, second edition 1992, Ed. TEC and DOC Lavoisier).
This composition alone can satisfy the daily nutritional needs of a patient while reducing intra-cellular synthesis and external input of polyamines.It is then an independent food.
Obviously, this composition could be administered several times at intervals during the day, rather than all at once. Each ration will then be defined by weight so as to form a sub-multiple of the daily food ration of a human being and would include:
- possibly said intracellular polyamines synthesis inhibitor, with an amount of less than 50/X g, and preferably between 1/X and 10/X g, - between 75/X g and 500/X g of glucides, - between 20/X g and 185/X g of lipids, - between 20/X g and 225/X g of proteins, - sufficient quantities of vitamins, minerals and electrolytes to partially satisfy the daily nutritional néeds of a human being.

where X is an integer between 2 and 8, equal to the number of rations to be ingested by the patient to satisfy his daily nutritional needs.
The number of these rations could be _chosen to satisfy all of the patient's daily food requirements, or to supply only some of his nutritional needs, the other needs being satisfied by a natural food with low polyamine content (for example ham and pasta or rice).
In this case, the food composition will be used as a food complement.
Another purpose of the invention is an agent with 2 components A and B, component A having a composition that can be ingested by man consisting of a nutritive mixture with low polyamine content and containing less than 50 picomoles/g, of putrescine, of spermidine, of spermine, of cadaverine, and including 10~ to 35~ of lipids, 8~ to 30~ of proteins, 35% to 80~ of glucides and up to 10~ of a mixture composed of vitamins, minerals and electrolytes by dry weight as a percentage of the total dry weight, and a component B composed of an intracellular polyamines synthesis inhibitor preferably consisting of a-methylornithine, components A and B being used as combination products for use simultaneously, separately or with a time lag for the treatment of cancer, and particularly cancer of the prostate.
The composition or agent according to the invention may be used as a drug, food, food supplement or as a therapeutic nutrition product.

`~ 13 CA2 165454 The composition or agent according to the invention may create an antineoplasic activity in man. Since polyamine depletion potentiates the effects of conventional anti-cancer treatments, the com~osition or agent according to the invention can be used in combination with other cancer treatments, including treatments using polyamine metabolism inhibitors.
In particular, this type of composition or agent may be effective for treatment of cancer of the prostate.
The invention will be more easily understood by considering the following two examples of how the invention is created.
Example 1 The following composition is prepared (see table IV).
The following are dispersed in 150 liters of water, - 786 g of disodium phosphate, - 5.080 kg of peanut oil, - 0.300 kg of glycerol stearate, - 1.280 kg of butter oil, Stir and then add:
