Definitions
- the present invention relates to the use of mupirocin or a salt or ester thereof in treating certain bacterial infections, in particular recurrent otitis media and recurrent sinusitis, and to formulations for use in such treatment.
- Mupirocin formerly known as pseudomonic acid, is a therapeutically useful compound which exhibits good antibacterial activity, mainly against Gram-positive bacteria, but also against some Gram-negative bacteria such as Haemophilus influenzae and Moraxella catarrhalis. It acts as a selective reversible inhibitor of bacterial /s ⁇ -leucyl t-RNA synthetase, thereby inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis (see Merck Index, 11th edn, 1989, 993 and references therein).
- the compound has an ester moiety which is susceptible to metabolism, effectively excluding the systemic use of the compound. It is however clinically effective as a topical agent.
- Topical antibacterial compositions comprising mupirocin are marketed by SmithKline Beecham under the trade names Bactroban Ointment and Bactroban Nasal.
- the first product is an ointment comprising a water soluble polyethylene glycol base (see also EP 0 095 897-A, Beecham Group) whilst the second product comprises the calcium salt of mupirocin in a white soft paraffin based ointment containing a glycerin ester (see also EP 0 167 856-A, Beecham Group). More recently, topical creams comprising mupirocin or a salt thereof have been described (PCT US94/12026, SmithKline Beecham).
- the formulation comprising the calcium salt of mupirocin in a white soft paraffin based ointment containing a glycerin ester (Bactroban Nasal) is particularly useful when applied to the anterior nares for the prophylactic eradication of the nasal carriage of Staph aureus. More recently, it has been found that the impact of such application is limited to the anterior nares. There is no significant reduction in the colonisation (by H. influenzae, S. pneumonia and M. catarrhalis) of the nasopharynx (unpublished).
- a spray formulation comprising Bactroban Ointment diluted in a 1 :9 ratio with a saline solution (Ocean, Fleming & Co) was shown to be effective in reducing the incidence of recurrent paranasal sinusitis when administered twice daily (two 'puffs' of spray, estimated to be about 150-200 ⁇ l) over a seven month period.
- Otitis media is a disease state commonly seen in infants and young children.
- the acute condition is normally successfully treated with a systemic antibacterial agent such as amoxycillin, optionally in combination with potassium clavulanate.
- H. influenzae, S. pneumonia and M. catarrhalis are generally considered to be the most common bacterial pathogens. There however remains the problem of treating the recurrent painful episodes.
- the present invention provides for the use of mupirocin or a pharmaceutically acceptable ester or salt thereof in the manufacture of a medicament for the prophylactic treatment of bacterial infection associated with colonisation of the nasopharynx by pathogenic organisms, and in which the medicament is adapted for administration to, and residence within, the nasopharynx; excluding the use of a 0.2% saline solution of mupirocin for treating recurrent sinusitis, administered at a dosage of less than lmg a day, twice daily on a continuing basis.
- Typical bacterial infections include recurrent otitis media and recurrent sinusitis.
- the present invention provides for the use of the use of mupirocin or a pharmaceutically acceptable ester or salt thereof in the manufacture of a medicament for the prophylactic treatment of recurrent otitis media.
- the present invention also provides for the use of mupirocin or a pharmaceutically acceptable ester or salt thereof in the manufacture of a medicament for the prophylactic treatment of recurrent sinusitis.
- mupirocin or a pharmaceutically acceptable ester or salt thereof in the manufacture of a medicament for the prophylactic treatment of recurrent sinusitis.
- the term 'prophylactic treatment' includes not only complete elimination of the bacterial infection, for instance recurrent otitis media or recurrent sinusitis, but also a partial elimination of thereof, that is a reduction in the number of acute episodes.
- the present invention provides for the use of mupirocin or a pharmaceutically acceptable ester or salt in the manufacture of a medicament for reducing or eliminating the nasal carriage of pathogenic organisms associated with recurrent otitis media, which medicament is adapted for nasal administration, in particular, focussed delivery to the nasopharynx.
- mupirocin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or ester thereof is preferred to administer of mupirocin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or ester thereof on an intermittent, rather than a continual, basis.
- the present invention provides the use of mupirocin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or ester thereof (hereinafter referred to as drug substance) in the manufacture of a medicament adapted for administration to the nasopharynx and which is administered to a patient in need thereof on an intermittent basis.
- drug substance mupirocin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or ester thereof
- drug substance (mupirocin or a pharmaceutically acceptable ester or salt) is administered on a daily basis, for a small number of days, for instance from 2 to 10, suitably 3 to 8, more suitably about 5 days, the administration then being repeated after an interval, for instance, on a monthly basis over a period of months, for instance up to six months.
- the drug substance may be administered on a continuing, daily basis, over a prolonged period, for instance several months.
- drug substance is administered twice a day.
- drug substance is administered during the winter months when bacterial infections such as recurrent otitis media and recurrent sinusitis tend to be more prevelant.
- drug substance is administered at a dosage of from 1 to lOmg, preferably from 3 to 8, typically about 5mg, in each nostril, twice a day.
- the drug substance is administered to the nasopharynx, in particular the anterior nasopharynx.
- Suitable pharmaceutically acceptable salts of mupirocin are well known in the art and include alkali metal salts such as sodium and lithium and alkaline earth metal salts such as calcium, of which the calcium salt is preferred, in particular the crystalline dihydrate form thereof described in EP 0 167 856-A (Beecham Group), as well as other metal salts, for instance silver and aluminiun salts and ammonium substituted ammonium salts.
- the salts may be anhydrous or may be in the form of pharmaceutically acceptable solvates, for instance alcoholates and, especially, hydrates.
- Preferred salts include the calcium, silver and lithium salts, in particular the calcium salt.
- the crystalline salt preferably the crystalline hydrated calcium salt, more preferably the crystalline dihydrate salt, is used.
- the crystalline hydrated calcium salt is used.
- the present invention provides for the use of the crystalline calcium dihydrate salt of mupirocin in the manufacture of a medicament for the prophylactic treatment of conditions associated with bacterial colonisation of the nasopharynx.
- Suitable pharmaceutically acceptable esters are well known in the art and include lower alkyl esters, especially the methyl and ethyl esters.
- the drug substance is present in medicaments for use in the present invention inn between 0.01 and 10%, preferably 0.1 and 5%, more preferably 1 and 5%. Suitable amounts include 2% and 4% by weight of the medicament. It is preferred to avoid low level dosages of drug substance as this might increase the risk of the development of mupirocin resistant bacteria.
- the present invention provides for the use of mupirocin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or ester thereof in the manufacture of a medicament for the prophylactic treatment of bacterial infection, characterised in that the medicament is administered to the nasopharynx and comprises from 0.5 to 5% by weight of mupirocin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or ester.
- compositions for administration include those adapted for focussed delivery to, and residence within, the nasopharynx.
- focussed delivery' is used to mean that the composition is delivered to the nasopharynx, rather than remaining within the nares.
- 'residence' within the nasopharynx is used to mean that the composition once delivered remains within the nasopharynx over a course of several hours, rather than being washed away more or less immediately.
- the present invention provides for a sprayable pharmaceutical formulation comprising: (a) an amphiphilic agent that increases in viscosity on contact with water;
- Amphiphilic agents are substances containing both hydrophilic and lipophilic groups. In liquid form, these agents are generally capable of spontaneous self-association in the presence of water, with a consequent increase in viscosity. This self-association results in a change in properties ranging from the formation of viscous liquids to semi-rigid gels. This behaviour has been characterised as due to the formation of long range order in the liquid system giving several distinct phases which have been called "liquid crystalline phases”.
- Materials known to exhibit such properties and which are suitable for use in a pharmaceutical formulation include mono-glycerides such as mono-olein and mono- linolein, phospholipids such as phosphatidyl cholines, and galactolipids such as galactoyl- diglycerides.
- the monoglycerides are long-chain fatty acid monoglycerides, optionally comprising up to 10% (w/w) of a long-chain fatty acid diglyceride and/or a small amount by weight of a free long-chain fatty acid.
- the mono- and di-glycerides may each include blends of different long-chain fatty acid mono- and di-glycerides.
- Suitable long-chain fatty acid monoglycerides include glycerol monooleate, glycerol monopalmitate and glycerol monostearate.
- Suitable commercially available examples of such include the products available under the trade names MYV ⁇ ROL, such as MYVEROL 18-99, MYVATEX, MYVAPLEX, and GMORPHIC 80 respectively, from Eastman Kodak Chemicals, Rochester, New York.
- a further useful long-chain fatty acid monoglyceride- containing product is ARLACEL 186 (available from ICI Americas Inc.) which includes, in addition to glycerol monooleate, propylene glycol (10%).
- the main fatty acids of MYVEROL 18-99 are oleic acid (61%), linoleic acid (21%), linolenic acid (9%) and palmitic acid (4%).
- the major fatty acid component is a C 1 g-saturated, monounsaturated or polyunsaturated fatty acid, preferably a Ci g-monounsaturated or polyunsaturated fatty acid.
- the monoglyceride will have an HLB value in the range of about 2.5 to 6.
- the HLB value of the product MYVEROL 18-99 is 3.7.
- the amphiphilic substance is preferably glyceryl mono-oleate (mono-olein).
- glyceryl mono- oleate is a material which is predominantly glyceryl mono-oleate but also contains minor amounts of related mono and di-glycerides. Accordingly, the amount that is effective in a particular spray formulation will vary dependent on the level of glyceryl mono-oleate in the commercial material used.
- a diluent is selected on the basis of compatibility e.g. producing a stable blend with the amphiphilic agent, and the ability to achieve a sprayable blend without excessive dilution that will reduce the self-association on contact with water and detract from the desired viscosity increase.
- a diluent is a pharmaceutically acceptable oil, most preferably a fatty acid triglyceride, typically vegetable (i.e. plant derived) oil, since mineral oils such as paraffin oil have been implicated in undesirable side effects when inhaled. Suitable vegetable oils include coconut oil, sesame oil and soya bean oil.
- the preferred diluent is a vegetable oil, most preferably coconut oil, that has been fractionated so that it is predominantly medium chain length triglycerides.
- the proportion of amphiphilic agent to oil is from 2:1 to 1 :4, preferably 1 : 1 to 1 :2.
- the amount of diluent is adjusted so that the formulation is of a viscosity that is suitable for spray delivery at 20°C or above.
- Suitable medium-chain fatty acid triglycerides for use in the present invention may be of natural, semi-synthetic or synthetic origin and may include blends of different medium chain fatty acid triglycerides.
- the term "medium-chain fatty acid” as used herein refers to a fatty acid having from 6 to 12, preferably 8 to 10 carbon atoms which may be branched or unbranched, preferably unbranched and which may be optionally substituted.
- Certain neutral plant oils, such as fractionated coconut oils provide convenient sources of medium-chain fatty acid triglycerides.

- the drug substance is used at between 2 and 8%, suitably between 3 and 5%, typically about 4%, by weight of the formulation. It is preferred to use a relatively high dosage level, to reduce the risk of the development of bacterial resistance. Also, to avoid excessive delivery volumes which will be uncomfortable in nasal administration, the drug substance is preferably present at a relatively high loading compared to other topical administration formulations.
- the drug substance is micronised calcium mupirocin dihydrate.
- the drug substance has a particle size less than 100 ⁇ m, preferably less than 10 ⁇ m.
- the sprayable formulations of this invention are especially suitable for delivery to and residence within the nasopharynx, because in the humid environment of the nasal passages they increase in viscosity by contact with water, and so are better able to resist wash-out when in contact with nasal surfaces.
- Othe sprayable formulations for use in the prsent invention include solutions of drug substance, preferably mupirocin, in aqueous polyethylene glycol.
