Definitions

  • composition comprising nitrogen monoxide, process for its production and its use
  • the present invention relates to a composition comprising nitrogen-monoxide, wherein the nitrogen-monoxide is present as a complex of transition metals, primarily iron, wherein the said metal complexes, mixed with the suitable pharmaceutical excipient can be applied on the skin and thus the nitrogen-monoxide can be administered to a human or mammal body by the diffusion through the skin and thus can exert its therapeutic effect.
  • the invention also relates to the process of the production of the composition according to the invention and its use. Brief description of the state of the art
  • NO Nitrogen-monoxide
  • NO gas is produced on the surface of the skin with a chemical reaction by proportioning of nitrite salts in a reducing environment by mixing two components.
  • Such solutions are disclosed in EP 1328252 and WO 00/53196. However, all these solutions are very far from the solution according to the present invention.
  • WO/2008/020218 discloses organic polymers, where the chelate complexes of different metals are built into. This framework is then used to store the NO molecules. However, the description explicitly refers to organic ligands and chelating agents with 2 or more valences (2-9 valences) that can be used to formulate metal complexes.
  • the metal chelates are embedded in polymers.
  • EP 1707224 discloses an equipment that releases NO from polymers.
  • Polymer compounds are also used in EP 1757278. These compounds comprise specifically crosslinked zeolite, which is capable of storing NO gas. The silicate also contains microcapsulated water and by breaking these capsules, a relatively regulated NO gas release can be ensured.
  • WO/2006/097349, WO/2006/097351 and WO/2006/097352 disclose cosmetic products containing NO and their uses.
  • a common feature of these inventions is that NO complexes of transition metals present in zeolites are disclosed as the source of NO. These documents do not mention any solutions without zeolites.
  • JP 04818108 also relates to NO absorbed in zeolite and its therapeutic use.
  • the main problem of nitrogen-monoxide therapy is the administration of the therapeutic gas to the appropriate place for therapy and there are a great number of attempts to solve this problem.
  • NO it is essential to ensure an advantageous drug-release profile, which has not been present in the state of the art so far.
  • our objective was to provide a pharmaceutical product that would enable to administer NO to the desired place within the body with a better efficiency than the solutions of the state of the art.
  • the invention solves the above disclosed problem by admin istering NO gas transdermally, that is through the skin. Principal discovery of the invention
  • the basic discovery of the invention comes from the former knowledge on skin respiration, to which there are several examples in other fields of medical therapy.
  • Our invention is also based on such pharmaceutical therapy process, a transdermal therapy system (TTS).
  • TTS transdermal therapy system
  • NO gas can be administered to the body through the skin with the necessary efficiency, despite the fact that the state of the art could not present an adequate solution in this respect.
  • Our systematic research we found out the potentials and possible side effects of NO therapy.
  • Our discovery is that although complex NO is undoubtedly a promising candidate for the therapeutic use of NO, an efficient NO release profile also has to be ensured for the desired effect. As a result of this discovery we completed our invention.
  • transdermal method we administer the therapeutic gas to the body through the skin.
  • This is carried out by complexes of transition metals, primarily ferrous complexes, from which transdermally absorbable NO gas is released when said complex is applied on the skin in the form of a spreadable lipophilic substance.
  • a carrier substance is needed that dissolves NO gas in a concentration of at least mmol, which is about a thousand times of the concentration measured in the human tissues.
  • This carrier can primarily be a hydrophobic (lipophilic) formula, especially (but not limited to) a gel, ointment or cream.
  • NO gas can also be administered to the body with a solution of dissolving it in lipophilic substances and then applying on the skin.
  • Said compound when contacting air at the temperature of the skin acts as a loose complex, releases NO ligands in the form of free gas, it is not toxic and does not irritate the skin.
  • the complex in a lipophilic carrier is suitable for the transdermal use of NO molecules, which is also proved by therapeutic results.
  • the present invention relates to a pharmaceutical product comprising nitrogen-monoxide that as NO source comprises a zeolite-free transition metal NO complex, preferably a ferrous-nitroso complex, and also comprises one or more lipophilic carriers and optionally one or more further excipients.
  • the pharmaceutical product according to the present invention preferably contains NO sources selected from the following: ferrous- nitroso complexes, preferably nitroso-ferrous salts, preferably ferrous-nitroso-sulphate.
  • the pharmaceutical product comprises 0.1 - 10 w%, preferably 1 - 10 w%, more preferably 2-4 w% NO source and as lipophilic carrier an oil-in-water type emulsion.
  • the lipophilic carrier in the product is one or more substances selected from the following: white vaseline, liquid paraffin, Polisorbate 60.
  • the pharmaceutical product according to the invention optionally contains one or more of the following excipients: silicon compounds, preferably silicon dioxide, more preferably colloidal silicon dioxide, fatty alcohols with medium carbon number, preferably cetyl-stearyl-alcohol, antioxidants, preferably ascorbic acid, most preferably dithionite, dimethyl-sulphoxyde, cyclodextrines, absorbents and distilled water.
  • the antioxidant can also be ferrous-sulphate when applied in excess.
  • a most preferable form of the pharmaceutical product comprises the following:
  • the dosage forms of the pharmaceutical product according to the invention are not limited, as long as they are capable of ensuring the desired release profile of NO.
  • the especially preferable formula is chosen from (but not limited to) the following: ointment, cream, liquid, spray or patch.
  • the invention also relates to the process of producing any of the pharmaceutical products according to the invention, wherein the above disclosed ingredients are mixed into a homogeneous emulsion with the conventional pharmaceutial methods, . and stored in a special container, if needed. Preferably it is stored at low temperature, away from oxygen.
  • the invention also relates to the therapeutic use of the product according to the invention.
  • the invention relates to the use of the pharmaceutical product according to the invention for the prevention or treatment of pathological conditions selected from the following: limb ischaemia, preferably arteriosclerotic limb ischaemia; ischaemic heart diseases; cerebral arteriosclerosis; mycotic, bacterial and viral inflammations; skin conditions, especially inflammation, acne, psoriasis; muscle pains and spasms; depression; pulmonary hypertension.
  • pathological conditions selected from the following: limb ischaemia, preferably arteriosclerotic limb ischaemia; ischaemic heart diseases; cerebral arteriosclerosis; mycotic, bacterial and viral inflammations; skin conditions, especially inflammation, acne, psoriasis; muscle pains and spasms; depression; pulmonary hypertension.
  • Our invention contains transition metal, primarily iron molecules that by disengaging the complex bonds, release NO gas into a carrier, which can be applied to the skin and from where the NO can be absorbed.
  • the metal complexes are temperature-sensitive and this provides the theoretical background of the problem in the state of the art.
  • An advantage of the product according to our invention as opposed to e.g. the zeolites according to the state of the art - is that the NO content can be varied in a very broad therapeutic scope.
  • the products according to the invention have to be stored below 5°C (at least before use) and kept away from oxygen at all times.
  • the formulation of the product is a special container or tube with flexible walls, because if we store the receptacle (be it a container or a tube) at higher temperature, the pressure can increase. As we noted above, the storage is by all means preferable at low temperature. The lower temperature we store the product at, the longer it retains its vasodilator effect. For example, when the product is chilled the vasodilator effect is retained for months, although the efficiency will slightly decrease.
  • the standard dosage regime of the composition is determined by the solubility parameter of the gas in the carrier based on a given surface.
  • the thickness of the layer does not influence the NO concentration of the molecular film directly contacting the skin, as it depends only on the solubility of the gas.
  • TTS is based on the specific features of the skin, mainly on its barrier function.
  • the composition may comprise a non-absorbing component, which constitutes a film layer on the skin that helps keep the gas close to the surface of the skin.
  • silicon dioxide may be used in a concentration of 0.5 to 5 % of the composition. Finishing the therapy, this layer can easily be removed together with the metal salts, which are also unable to be absorbed.
  • Liquid paraffin 5 g The cream is applied on the skin, primarily on the leg, upper arms, tights, breast or back on a surface of 10x 10 cm evenly, in a relatively thin layer and rather quickly in a quantity of 2-3 g (2-3 ml). The surface is immediately covered with a foil, winding 3-4 layers of it. The foil is removed after about 2 hours. (It does not have to be used in all the cases during the therapy).
  • Table 1 The increase in the length of walk as a result of the treatment at the end of the 3rd month
  • Nr. 3 was very different from the others, according to the usual practice, such data are left out from the database. Usually the data is left out from the evaluation if it is outside +/- 2 S.D. This applied to Nr. 3 so it was left out of Table 2.
  • NO can diffuse into the skin in 1 -3 mm depth. It can be bound intracellularly to the haemoglobin-iron and then activates the guanyl-cyclase. Then cyclic guanyl-monophosphate (cGMP) is produced that relaxes the smooth muscles when getting into the circulation system.
  • cGMP cyclic guanyl-monophosphate
  • NO can be bound to the SH-groups of proteins (nitrosation).
  • An other option is when it creates the vasodilation as a neurotransmitter through the nerve fibers of the skin.
  • the extra-synaptic transmittal is also possible (See E. Sylvester Vizi: John Wiley and Sons, Chichester, New York, 1984).
  • limb ischaemia (Tucker et al.: Lancet, 354: 1670-0675, 1999), primarily arteriosclerotic; ischaemic heart disease; cerebral arteriosclerosis; inflammations (mycotic, bacterial, viral) (Fang: J.Clin.Invest, 99:2818-2825, 1997; Suga et al.: Infect Immun., 61 : 1980- 1989, 1993); skin conditions (inflammation, acne, psoriasis etc.); muscle pains and spasms (skeletal muscle and smooth muscle) (Desai et al.: Nature, 351 : 477-479, 1991 ); depression; pulmonary hypertension.
