Description
New Use of Acetylsalicylic Acid and Derivatives Thereof Filed of the Invention The present invention relates to a new use of acetylsalicylic acid and derivatives thereof or alternatively to acetylsalicylic acid and derivatives thereof for use in a hitherto unknown treatment of certain diseases or alternatively to a new method of treating certain diseases by administering acetylsalicylic acid and derivatives thereof. Background of the Invention
It is known to use acetylsalicylic acid for combating or pain and fever. There are also reports in the scientific literature that acetylsalicylic acid is useful for combating viruses, e.g. influenza viruses. DL-lysine-acetylsalicylate (also known as DL-Lysine-2- acetoxybenzoate) is also used for combating pain and fever.
It is further known to the person skilled in the art that the human genome encodes retroviruses (endogenous retroviruses) in a currently estimated proportion of about 7% of the genome. It is further known that under certain circumstances this information encoded in the genome can be read and lead to the complete expression of the corresponding retro virus(es). There have also been reports in the scientific literature that even the DNA of certain DNA-based virus(es) (for example some herpes simplex type(s)) may be incorporated into the human genome and under certain circumstances lead to the expression of the complete virus(es).
Furthermore, there are indications in the scientific literature that endogenous (retro)viruses play a role in at least some diseases of the nervous system, in particular the central nervous system (CNS). e.g. in schizophrenia. It has now surprisingly found that acetylsalicylic acid, a mixture thereof with DL-lysine hydrochloride or L-lysine hydrochloride as well as DL-lysine acetylsalicylate or L-lysine acetylsalicylate (preferably in the presence of a weak base of a buffer system) are useful for combating endogenous viruses, in particular endogenous retroviruses, and in particular
in the nervous system, e.g. the central nervous system. Furthermore, it was surprisingly found that acetylsalicylic acid, the mixture thereof with DL-lysine hydrochloride or L- lysine hydrochloride as well as DL-lysine acetylsalicylate or L-lysine acetylsalicylate (preferably in the presence of a weak base of a buffer system) are useful for combating the symptoms of at least certain types of depression, mania and paranoid psychosis or schizophrenia.
Summary of the Invention The present invention relates to the use of acetylsalicylic acid, a mixture thereof with DL- lysine hydrochloride or L-lysine hydrochloride as well as DL-lysine acetylsalicylate or L- lysine acetylsalicylate for combating an endogenous virus and/or symptoms caused by an endogenous virus; or acetylsalicylic acid, a mixture thereof with DL-lysine hydrochloride or L-lysine hydrochloride as well as DL-lysine acetylsalicylate or L-lysine acetylsalicylate for use in combating an endogenous virus and/or symptoms caused by an endogenous virus; or a method of treatment for combating one or more of an endogenous virus and symptoms caused by an endogenous virus by administering safe and effective amount of one or more of acetylsalicylic acid, a mixture thereof with DL-lysine hydrochloride or L- lysine hydrochloride; and DL-lysine acetylsalicylate or L-lysine acetylsalicylate.
The virus is preferably an endogenous retrovirus, and the symptoms are preferably depression, mania or paranoid psychosis. Thus, acetylsalicylic acid, a mixture thereof with DL-lysine hydrochloride or L-lysine hydrochloride as well as DL-lysine acetylsalicylate or L-lysine acetylsalicylate are also contemplated for use in combating the symptoms of depression, mania and paranoid psychosis or schizophrenia.
The present invention further relates a pharmaceutical composition comprising one or more of acetylsalicylic acid, a mixture thereof with DL-lysine hydrochloride or L-lysine hydrochloride; and DL-lysine acetylsalicylate or L-lysine acetylsalicylate, preferably in the presence of a weak base or a buffer system and one or more natural pharmaceutical drugs or natural remedies; or one or more natural pharmaceutical drugs or natural remedies and one or more food supplements; or one or more natural pharmaceutical drugs or natural remedies and one or more further pharmaceutical drugs; or one or more natural
pharmaceutical drugs or natural remedies, one or more food supplements and one or more further pharmaceutical drugs.
The present invention also relates a pharmaceutical composition comprising one or more of acetylsalicylic acid, a mixture thereof with DL-lysine hydrochloride or L-lysine
hydrochloride; and DL-lysine acetylsalicylate or L-lysine acetylsalicylate in the presence of a weak base or a buffer system.
Finally, the invention relates to a kit of parts, comprising one or more of acetylsalicylic acid, a mixture thereof with DL-lysine hydrochloride or L-lysine hydrochloride; and DL- lysine acetylsalicylate or L-lysine acetylsalicylate, preferably in the presence of a weak base or a buffer system and one or more natural pharmaceutical drugs or natural remedies; or one or more natural pharmaceutical drugs or natural remedies and one or more food supplements; or one or more natural pharmaceutical drugs or natural remedies and one or more further pharmaceutical drugs; or one or more natural pharmaceutical drugs or natural remedies, one or more food supplements and one or more further pharmaceutical drugs.
Detailed Description In the context of the present invention, "combating" means lowering (mitigating) or eliminating or preventing a virus titer or the symptoms accompanying the virus.
It was surprisingly found in the present invention that the symptoms of depression, mania and paranoid psychosis or schizophrenia can successfully combated with one or more of acetylsalicylic acid, a mixture thereof with DL-lysine hydrochloride or L-lysine
hydrochloride; and DL-lysine acetylsalicylate or L-lysine acetylsalicylate. From the findings of the scientific literature it may be concluded that endogenous retroviruses play a major role in the etiology of the above-mentioned diseases. It must be concluded that acetylsalicylic acid, a mixture thereof with DL-lysine hydrochloride or L-lysine
hydrochloride; and DL-lysine acetylsalicylate or L-lysine acetylsalicylate combat these viruses, since it is not known that those drugs have a major impact on the neurotransmitters or the receptors thereof which also play a major role in the etiology of the above- mentioned diseases.
Acetylsalicylic acid and DL-lysine-acetylsalicylate (DL-Lysine-2-acetoxybenzoate) are well-known commercially available drugs and are on the market e.g. under the trade name Asprin® (Baser AG) and Apegic (Sanofi-Aventis), respectively. L-lysine-acetylsalicylate can be prepared in analogy to the well-known synthesis of DL-lysine-acetylsalicylate (se e.g. K.D. Rainsford: "Aspirin and Related Drugs", Taylor & Francis, London and New York, 2004) by substituting L-lysine for DL-lysine.
Preferably the drugs of the inventive composition are administered in the presence of a pharmaceutically acceptable weak base, such as Na2C03' or in the presence of a pharmaceutically acceptable buffer system, such as NaHC03/Na2C03.
Furthermore, they are preferably administered together with one or more natural pharmaceutical drugs or remedies having antiviral and immune-supporting effects, such as Succus liquiritiae, and/or other pharmaceutical drugs having immune-supporting effects, such as e.g. acetylcysteine as a sulfur source, and/or nutritional supplements having positive effects on the immune system, such as Zink, Vitamin D, Vitamin B3, Vitamin B6 and Vitamin B12. The dosage of acetylsalicylic acid, a mixture thereof with DL-lysine hydrochloride or L- lysine hydrochloride; and DL-lysine acetylsalicylate or L-lysine acetylsalicylate fro combating an acute disease generally corresponds to 1 - 3 g acetylsalicylic acid, optionally present in the lysine derivative. Usually, this dosage is administered for about 2 to about 6 days. A prophylactic dosage may be lower, such as 100 mg to 1 g, based on acetylsalicylic acid.
The above-mentioned drugs for use according of the invention are usually administered in combination with at least one carrier. Any further pharmaceutically acceptable excipients, such as fillers, lubricants, flavors etc. may be included The dosage forms thereof may take any pharmaceutical dosage form known for this class of drugs, i.e. solid acids or salts, e.g. the form of tablets, capsules, lozenges, dosage forms in a liquid carrier for ingestions or injection, e.g. i.v. injection, suppositories and solid or dosage liquid dosage forms with retarded or prolonged action. Such dosage forms are well-known to the person skilled in
the art; see e.g. Remington, The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, Ed. Allen, Loyd V. Jr., 21nd Edition, 2012. This also applies to the pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention.
Examples
Example 1
A 46 years old female patient has been suffering from a depression characterized among others by a mild stupor presumably because of a very low dopamine level for three days. She had not seen a physician because of lack of time, since her work progressed very slowly. On day 4 her condition improved considerably within one hour after having taken DL-lysine acetylsalicylate corresponding to 1000 mg acetylsalicylic acid. After two further ingestions of the same dosage 5 hours later and on the next day, she felt completely recovered.
Example 2
A 57 years old male patient had been treated in a psychiatric hospital among others with high doses of haloperidol because of an acute paranoid psychosis. After abating of his delusions he was dismissed with the recommendation to take 5 mg haloperidol per day, among others. Although he had not longer any delusions, the patient did not feel well. 4 days after his dismissal he started to take DL-lysine acetylsalicylate corresponding to 1000 mg acetylsalicylic acid three times per day, together with a table spoon of Succus liquiritiae per day, a zinc salt corresponding to 60 mg zinc per day and acetylcysteine in a dosage of 1,200 mg per day. After three days he was free of any ailments.
Example 3
A 66 years old female patient who had been suffering for many years of recurrent schizoaffective psychoses felt the signs of the beginning of a mania. She went to a psychiatric hospital for treatment and was administered 2 mg haloperidol per day. After 4 days, she began to take DL-lysine acetylsalicylate corresponding to 1000 mg
acetylsalicylic acid one to two times per day without knowledge of the staff of the hospital.
Later on she also took 1 table spoon of Succus liquiritiae as well as zinc and
acetylcysteine. She then refused to take any further haloperidol except for once in the evening when she was sleepless. The condition of the patient improved, the mania became less and she did not develop any delusions which she usually did after the mania. After two weeks she was able to work part time again in a demanding job.
