Definitions

  • the present invention relates to oral and intra-articular formulations based on sulphated hyaluronic acid which are effective in the treatment of degenerative osteoarthritis.
  • Osteoarthritis is a very common disorder, characterised by progressive degeneration of the joint cartilage which thins and deteriorates following loss of the cellular and extracellular component, and can even disappear entirely.
  • the causes of the disease are only partly clear. They basically seem to involve a series of processes triggered by a mechanical imbalance that affects the entire joint, for example after a trauma or mechanical stress. Inside the cartilage there is a delicate balance between destruction of the exhausted extracellular matrix and formation of intact matrix. All this depends largely on enzymes produced by the chondrocytes, a cellular component of joint matrix. In the event of an excessive or unbalanced load on the joint, an inflammatory situation arises.
  • degenerative osteoarthritis can be defined as a chronic disease which normally occurs after an initial acute stage of inflammation, known as inflammatory osteoarthritis.
  • inflammatory osteoarthritis The presence or absence of an inflammatory state in the joint (caused by cytokines and MMPs together with other substances) distinguishes the acute inflammatory stage of the disease (inflammatory osteoarthritis) from the chronic non-inflammatory stage (degenerative osteoarthritis).
  • Degenerative osteoarthritis does not only occur as the chronic stage of inflammatory osteoarthritis, but also results from physiological aging of the joint cartilage.
  • the integrity of the extracellular matrix is therefore crucial to the survival of the chondrocytes, and consequently essential for healthy cartilage.
  • the cartilage matrix is a three-dimensional structure consisting of collagen molecules and aggregated complexes of proteoglycans, which in turn are formed by
  • HA is a polysaccharide molecule with considerable viscoelastic properties. It is present in the joint cavities as a fundamental component of synovial fluid, where it acts as a lubricant and shock-absorbing agent, and protects the chondrocytes against the action of the inflammatory cytokines (Asari et al., Arch Histol Cytol, 1995, 58:65-76; Brun et al., Osteoarthr Cartil, 2003, 11:208-16; Stove et al., J Orthop Res, 2002, 20:551-5). HA, as such or in derivatised form, has long been used to treat degenerative osteoarthritis, either as a “viscosupplement” or a lubricant.
  • Hyalgan® HA purified from rooster combs according to EP 138572 B1
  • Synvisc® Hylan G-F20, namely HA crosslinked with formaldehyde and divinyl sulphone, as described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,713,448
  • Artz® HA with a MW of between 620 and 1200 KDa
  • the oral treatments according to the prior art involve the administration of sulphated GAGs such as glucosamine sulphate and chondroitin sulphate in association with HA and hydrolysed collagen, in order to promote HA synthesis in the joint cavity, reduce inflammation, and protect the chondrocytes in an osteoarthritic joint (U.S. Pat. No. 6,645,948; U.S. Pat. No. 6,476,005).
  • GAGs such as glucosamine sulphate and chondroitin sulphate
  • HA glucosamine sulphate and chondroitin sulphate
  • HA sulphated as described in the prior art, to which anti-inflammatory, anticoagulant and cell-adhesion-inhibiting effects are attributed.
  • HA-S sulphated hyaluronic acid
  • autoimmune disease rheumatoid arthritis
  • EP 754460 B1 claims the use of HA-S in the parenteral injectable treatment of inflammatory states, including joint rheumatism.
  • the present invention supersedes the prior art because it relates to formulations based on chemically sulphated HA, for oral administration or intra-articular injection, which effectively slow joint degeneration and promote reconstruction of the extracellular matrix in joints affected by chronic degenerative osteoarthritis, which is consequently not at the inflammatory stage (these compositions therefore cannot be used to treat inflammatory osteoarthritis).
  • the present invention relates to formulations based on HA chemically modified by sulphation as described in EP 702699 B1: the Applicant has demonstrated the therapeutic efficacy of HA-S by comparison with a standard treatment based on sulphated glycosaminoglycans in the treatment of osteoarthritic cartilage deficiency, and compared its efficacy with non-sulphated HA to demonstrate the clear pharmacological superiority of HA-S over both GAGs and HA.
  • the present invention relates to formulations based on HA chemically modified by sulphation, which are effective in the (preferably oral) treatment of chronic forms of degenerative osteoarthritis without inflammatory sequelae.
  • the process of degenerative osteoarthritis causes progressive damage to the extracellular matrix in the joint cartilage. This damage is manifested by thinning of the matrix and loss of the chondrocyte component; the process culminates with the total destruction of the joint cartilage.
  • the disorder can be manifested as chronicisation of inflammatory osteoarthritis or represent the physiological development of the joint aging process.
  • the cartilage can be divided into four different zones, from the joint surface to the subchondral bone, namely:
  • This invention demonstrates that the administration of sulphated hyaluronic acid represents a valid therapeutic approach for these purposes because it increases, within the joint, the presence of the material that constitutes the “scaffolding” of the cartilage matrix and, by ensuring its structural integrity, prevents its decellularisation.
  • the formulations of the invention can therefore also be used for the prevention of cartilage damage.
  • HA-S slows degradation and stimulates regeneration of the basic structure of the extracellular matrix to a surprisingly greater extent than other GAGs and non-sulphated HA.
  • the sulphated hyaluronic acid suitable for the purpose of this invention is prepared according to a process described in EP 702699 B1: sulphation is performed with the SO 3 -pyridine complex, and involves the alcoholic hydroxyls present in the polysaccharide chain.
  • the degree of sulphation can range between 0.5 and 3.5 (EP 0940410 B1), and is preferably between 0.5 and 1.5 (the average grade is defined as 1:1 sulphate group to disaccharide group), starting from HA with different molecular weights, ranging from 50.000 to 800.000 D, preferably 100.000 to 230.000 D, using HA produced by extraction, fermentation or technological means.
  • the derivative obtained maintains all the physical characteristics of the starting polymer; in particular, the molecular weight of HA is not changed by the sulphation process, consequently allowing the same viscosity as the starting polysaccharide to be maintained.
  • HA-S produced by fermentation having an average molecular weight of 180/200 KD and an average degree of sulphation of 1, with a reference treatment based on Condral® (galactosaminoglucuronoglycan sulphate, the depolymerised form of chondroitin sulphate) and with a treatment based on HA (with a molecular weight of 180/200 KD) against the untreated control.
  • Condral® galactosaminoglucuronoglycan sulphate, the depolymerised form of chondroitin sulphate
  • the animals were divided into 4 homogenous groups (6 animals per group) and treated orally, 24 hours after surgery, every day for 61 days, with:
  • the animals were killed and examined macroscopically to check for the absence of systemic toxicity.
  • the lateral and medial condyles of the femur with the tibial plate were fixed in formalin buffered to 10% and embedded in paraffin wax.
  • the preparations were then processed, by a method known to one skilled in the art, to obtain sections analysable under the optical microscope after staining with haematoxylin-eosin.
  • the cartilage tissue removed from the medial and lateral femoral condyles was then subjected to semiquantitative histopathological analysis and histomorphometric analysis.
  • parameters relating to degeneration, the structural integrity of the cartilage and the extent of abrasion on the thickness of the cartilage were taken into consideration.
  • Cartilage tissue Group plasma infiltrates plasma infiltrates Control 0 0 HA-S 0 0 HA 0 0 Condral 0 0
  • the total lack of plasma infiltrates in the synovial fluid and the cartilage confirms the complete absence of inflammation in the joint cavity in the controls treated with NaCl and in all the groups studied.
  • FIG. 1 summarises the data collected from the cartilage examination: in the group of animals treated with saline solution (controls), serious degeneration characterised by morphological alteration of the cell component was evident.
  • the situation of the animals treated with Condral® was better; in this case the cartilage degeneration was estimated at 2.8, and was therefore moderate/marked; it is important to note that this result is very similar to that obtained with HA treatment.
  • the cartilage of the animals treated with HA-S was in a much better situation: the level of degradation was slight (1,7). Oral administration of HA-S therefore proved effective in significantly slowing the process of degradation of the cartilage of joints affected by degenerative osteoarthritis.
  • a second, important evaluation relates to analysis of the structural integrity of the cartilage tissue, which is measured, according to recognised standards, in terms of irregularity of the surface and of the cartilage structure ( FIG. 2 ).
  • This graph confirms that treatment with HA-S helps to maintain good structural integrity, to a significant extent compared with the controls, and also compared with Condral® treatment.
  • the group of animals treated with HA-S only presented slight cracks in the transitional cartilage zone, whereas those treated with Condral® presented marked lesions of the radial zone; the finding relating to treatment with HA, which again proved as effective as Condral®, is particularly interesting.
  • FIG. 3 illustrates the depth of the lesion along the entire thickness of the cartilage, the maximum lesion being one which causes exposure of bone tissue following total loss of cartilage.
  • the data illustrate the mean values of the lesions of the lateral and medial condyles; once again it was confirmed that oral treatment with HA-S is more effective than treatment with Condral® or treatment with HA alone in preserving the integrity of the cartilage matrix.
  • HA-S could possibly be associated with other molecules useful to strengthen the extracellular matrix, such as collagen (possibly hydrolysed) or other GAGs, or with other pharmacologically and/or biologically active substances such as growth factors and/or hormones, vitamins (especially vitamins A, C, D, and E, and group B in general), antibiotics and mineral salts (especially calcium, magnesium and selenium salts and other trace elements).
  • growth factors and/or hormones such as growth factors and/or hormones, vitamins (especially vitamins A, C, D, and E, and group B in general), antibiotics and mineral salts (especially calcium, magnesium and selenium salts and other trace elements).
  • HA-S hyaluronic acid derivatives
  • HA-S could possibly be associated with other molecules such as other GAGs or other pharmacologically and/or biologically active substances such as growth factors and/or hormones, vitamins, antibiotics and antivirals.
  • HA-S preparation of the formulations containing HA-S of the invention, for oral and intra-articular administration, are described below by way of example and not of limitation.
  • HA-S can be formulated in all known ways according to the state of the art in association with stabilisers, excipients, preservatives and/or other substance considered useful to obtain the best possible formulation, for the preparation of granulates, suspensions, solutions, capsules and tablets.
  • the HA used in these formulations has an average degree of sulphation of 1, and an average molecular weight of 180/200 KD; the concentration of the Active ingredient ranges between 50 and 400 mg per dose unit.
  • HA-S 400 Excipients Microcrystalline cellulose 65 Corn starch 15.5 Sorbitol 2250 Polyvinylpyrrolidone 47.5 Citric acid 10 Aspartame 32 Orange flavouring 180
  • HAS1, microcrystalline cellulose and corn starch Initially mix the HAS1, microcrystalline cellulose and corn starch. Mix with the binder solution consisting of water and polyvinylpyrrolidone. When the mixture is uniformly moist, granulate through a 2 mm sieve. Dry the granulate, then sieve the dried granulate, forcing it through an 0.8 mm sieve. Mix the granulate powder with sorbitol, citric acid, aspartame and orange flavouring. Fill sachets with the granulate.
  • HA-S grade 1 or 2 having an average molecular weight of 180/200 KD or 500/750 KD, prepared in sterile, pyrogen-free saline solution at the concentration of 1-100 mg/ml, preferably 5-50 mg/ml, and even more preferably 10-20 mg/ml, is preferably used for the injectable intra-articular preparations.
  • the final solution must be sterile and pyrogen-free. It can also be freeze-dried and reconstituted at the time of use.
