“COMPOSIZIONI PER IL TRATTAMENTO DELLE MUCOSITI VAGINALI O RETTALI†⠀ œCOMPOSITIONS FOR THE TREATMENT OF VAGINAL OR RECTAL MUCOSITESâ €

La presente invenzione ha per oggetto l’uso di una combinazione di glicina, prolina, ed eventualmente un polimero filmogeno naturale o sintetico, e/o lisina e/o leucina, per la preparazione di composizioni per l’uso nel trattamento delle mucositi vaginali o rettali. The present invention relates to the use of a combination of glycine, proline, and possibly a natural or synthetic film-forming polymer, and / or lysine and / or leucine, for the preparation of compositions for use in the treatment of mucositis vaginal or rectal.

Background tecnico Technical background

Le mucositi sono condizioni patologiche per lo più su base infiammatoria a carico delle mucose. Le mucositi possono interessare ad esempio le mucose orali, rettali o vaginali. Mucositis are pathological conditions mostly on an inflammatory basis affecting the mucous membranes. Mucositis can affect, for example, the oral, rectal or vaginal mucous membranes.

Sono state descritte composizioni utili in particolare per il trattamento di mucositi orali che comprendono agenti antiinfiammatori associati ad agenti filmogeni capaci di formare un rivestimento protettivo sulla mucosa. Compositions useful in particular for the treatment of oral mucositis have been described which comprise anti-inflammatory agents associated with film-forming agents capable of forming a protective coating on the mucosa.

Le mucositi a carico di altre mucose, in particolare quella rettale e quella vaginale, presentano problematiche diverse sia per le diverse caratteristiche istologiche delle mucose sia per le diverse cause patogenetiche. The mucositis of other mucous membranes, in particular the rectal and vaginal ones, present different problems both for the different histological characteristics of the mucous membranes and for the different pathogenetic causes.

Se infatti le mucositi orali sono per lo più causate da un sistema immunitario alterato, ad esempio in seguito a trattamenti chemioterapici o radioterapici, le mucositi vaginali (vaginiti o vaginosi) e le mucositi rettali (proctiti) possono essere determinate anche da infezioni batteriche, virali micotiche, parassiti, da allergie da contatto o alimentari, da interventi chirurgici e simili. La flora batterica vaginale e quella rettale sono inoltre diverse dalla flora batterica che alberga nella mucosa orale. In fact, if oral mucositis are mostly caused by an impaired immune system, for example following chemotherapy or radiotherapy treatments, vaginal mucositis (vaginitis or vaginosis) and rectal mucositis (proctitis) can also be caused by bacterial, viral infections fungi, parasites, contact or food allergies, surgery and the like. The vaginal and rectal bacterial flora are also different from the bacterial flora that resides in the oral mucosa.

Sono noti diversi prodotti, per lo più a base di antibattericiantimicotici, utili nel trattamento di vaginiti e proctiti ma esiste ancora l’esigenza di prodotti ben tollerati che possano agire non solo sull’agente eziologico (batteri, virus o funghi) ma che siano in grado di esercitare un’azione trofica a livello mucosale e di diminuire rapidamente i fenomeni legati all’infiammazione a gli stati dolorosi tipici di queste affezioni. Several products are known, mostly based on anti-bacterial and anti-fungal, useful in the treatment of vaginitis and proctitis but there is still a need for well-tolerated products that can act not only on the etiological agent (bacteria, viruses or fungi) but which are able to exert a trophic action at the mucosal level and to rapidly decrease the phenomena related to inflammation and the painful states typical of these diseases.

È noto che un’associazione di glicina, lisina, leucina e prolina e sodio ialuronato à ̈ particolarmente efficace nell’agevolazione del processo di reintegrazione cellulare alla base di una veloce cicatrizzazione delle ferite cutanee. I processi di cicatrizzazione cutanea non sono assimilabili tuttavia alle condizioni di infiammazione cronica che caratterizzano le mucositi vaginali e rettali. It is known that an association of glycine, lysine, leucine and proline and sodium hyaluronate is particularly effective in facilitating the cellular reintegration process at the base of a fast healing of skin wounds. However, skin healing processes cannot be assimilated to the conditions of chronic inflammation that characterize vaginal and rectal mucositis.

Descrizione dell’invenzione Description of the invention

SPERIMENTAZIONE CLINICA CLINICAL TRIAL

Gel rettale Rectal gel

Le mucositi rettali, idiopatiche, aspecifiche o iatrogene (stipsi ostinata, radioterapia, o altro) risentono favorevolmente dell’uso del gel rettale dell’invenzione. Rectal mucositis, idiopathic, non-specific or iatrogenic (obstinate constipation, radiotherapy, or other) are favorably affected by the use of the rectal gel of the invention.

I noti effetti della attivazione delle pompe energetiche mitocondriali, e della inibizione di iNOS portano ad una diminuzione della flogosi, e alla disattivazione di tutti quei meccanismi che la stessa genera. The known effects of the activation of the mitochondrial energy pumps, and of the inhibition of iNOS lead to a decrease in inflammation, and to the deactivation of all those mechanisms that it generates.

È stato condotto uno studio osservazionale su un campione di 20 pazienti, 10 trattati con 3 ml di gel rettale dell’invenzione, e 10 con placebo. An observational study was conducted on a sample of 20 patients, 10 treated with 3 ml of the rectal gel of the invention, and 10 with placebo.

L’applicazione del gel e del placebo à ̈ stata effettuata due volte al giorno, la mattina e la sera. Sono stati presi in considerazione i seguenti parametri: dolore (valutato in accordo con la scala VAS 1-10), flogosi, stato del Pattern Vascolare Mucoso (PVM), tenesmo rettale, ematochezia (l’emissione di feci di un colore anomalo, rosso o marrone), e discomfort evacuativo. Lo studio ha evidenziato come l’uso del gel rettale dell’invenzione abbia clinicamente migliorato la Quality of Life (QoL) dei pazienti trattati, agendo positivamente su due fondamentali meccanismi, ovvero: riduzione della flogosi e diminuzione del dolore. The application of the gel and the placebo was carried out twice a day, in the morning and in the evening. The following parameters were taken into consideration: pain (evaluated according to the VAS 1-10 scale), inflammation, state of the mucous vascular pattern (PVM), rectal tenesmus, hematochezia (the emission of faeces of an abnormal color, red or brown), and evacuative discomfort. The study highlighted how the use of the invented rectal gel has clinically improved the Quality of Life (QoL) of the patients treated, acting positively on two fundamental mechanisms, namely: reduction of inflammation and reduction of pain.

Le mucositi vaginali, idiopatiche, aspecifiche o iatrogene (da trattamenti con antibiotici, radioterapia, o altro) risentono favorevolmente dell’uso del gel vaginale dell’invenzione. Vaginal mucositis, idiopathic, non-specific or iatrogenic (from treatments with antibiotics, radiotherapy, or other) are favorably affected by the use of the vaginal gel of the invention.

È stato condotto uno studio osservazionale su un campione di 20 pazienti, 10 trattate con 2 ml di gel vaginale dell’invenzione, e 10 con placebo. L’applicazione del gel e del placebo à ̈ stata effettuata due volte al giorno, la mattina e la sera. Sono stati presi in considerazione i seguenti parametri: eritema della mucosa, soluzione di continuità della mucosa, dolore (valutata in accordo con la scala vas 1-10), edema, edema perilesionale, secchezza /distrofia della mucosa e dispareunia (dolore avvertito nell'area della vagina o della pelvi durante un rapporto sessuale). An observational study was conducted on a sample of 20 patients, 10 treated with 2 ml of the vaginal gel of the invention, and 10 with placebo. The application of the gel and the placebo was carried out twice a day, in the morning and in the evening. The following parameters were considered: mucosal erythema, mucosal continuity solution, pain (assessed according to the vas scale 1-10), edema, periwound edema, mucosal dryness / dystrophy and dyspareunia (pain felt in the area of the vagina or pelvis during intercourse).

Lo studio ha evidenziato come l’uso del gel vaginale dell’invenzione abbia clinicamente migliorato la Quality of Life (QoL) delle pazienti trattate, agendo positivamente sia a livello del dolore, sia a livello dell’edema e della distrofia della mucosa vaginale, e di conseguenza esercitando anche un effetto benefico sulla dispareunia.
