Definitions
- the present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for use in the treatment or prophylaxis of mucositis.
- the present invention further involves a method of treating or preventing mucositis.
- Mucositis is the medical term for the painful inflammation and ulceration of the mucous membranes lining the digestive tract. Mucositis often appears as an adverse effect of chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatment for cancer. Mucositis can occur anywhere in the body where mucous membranes are present but is most common in the gastrointestinal tract and oral cavity. Oral mucositis refers to the inflammation and ulceration that occurs in the mouth and is a common and often debilitating side-effect of cancer treatment. Oral mucositis is generally graded on a WHO scale ranging from 1 to 4, 4 being the most severe. In grade 3 oral mucositis, the patient is unable to eat solid food, and in grade 4, the patient is unable to consume liquids as well.
- Oral and gastrointestinal mucositis can affect up to 100 % of patients undergoing high-dose chemotherapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), 80 % of patients with malignancies of the head and neck receiving radiotherapy, and a wide range of patients receiving chemotherapy.
- HSCT hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
- Alimentary tract mucositis increases mortality and morbidity and contributes to rising health care costs.
- IL-1 , IL-11 and TGF- beta3 IL-1 , IL-11 and TGF- beta3
- amino acid supplementation e.g. glutamine
- vitamins e.g. glutamine
- colony- stimulating factors e.g. cryotherapy
- laser therapy e.g. laser therapy.
- Symptomatic relief of the pain of oral mucositis may be provided by barrier protection agents such as concentrated oral gel products (e.g. GELCLAIR (TM)).
- GELCLAIR GELCLAIR
- CAPHOSOL (TM) is a mouth rinse which has been shown to prevent and treat oral mucositis caused by radiation and high dose chemotherapy.
- a problem with many of the barrier protection agents is that very frequent application may be required, often as many as 4-10 times per day.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a topical pharmaceutical composition which, when administered to a patient suffering from or at risk of developing mucositis, prevents exacerbation or development of the mucositis.
- a further object of the present invention is to provide a topical pharmaceutical composition for treatment or prophylaxis of mucositis, which provides a sustained effect, thus reducing the required frequency of administration.
- Yet another object of the present invention is to provide a topical pharmaceutical composition for prophylaxis of mucositis, which enables the use of higher dosages of chemotherapy, radiotherapy and/or stem cell therapy in the treatment of cancer in a patient, without causing more suffering for the patient.
- the present invention provides a composition comprising an ionic complex of chitosan and a negatively charged polysaccharide, selected from the group consisting of heparin, heparan sulfate and dextran sulfate, for use in the treatment of mucositis in a mammalian subject.
- a composition comprising an ionic complex of chitosan and a negatively charged polysaccharide, selected from the group consisting of heparin, heparan sulfate and dextran sulfate, for use in the treatment of mucositis in a mammalian subject.
- compositions, methods and uses for treatment of mucositis disclosed herein are applicable to mammalian subjects in general and to human subjects in particular.
- composition of the invention may preferably be applied topically to a site in need of treatment, such as for example to a surface of a mucous membrane which has been damaged due to mucositis, or which is at risk of becoming damaged due to mucositis.
- the composition When applied to the surface of mucous membranes, such as the mucous membranes of the oral cavity, or wounds, sores or ulcers on mucous membranes, the composition forms a physical barrier covering the surface onto which it is applied.
- the physical barrier also referred to as a film, helps to prevent direct contact of the surface with objects or materials that would otherwise be brought into direct contact with potentially exposed nerve endings at the surface, thereby causing discomfort or pain to the patient.
- objects or materials may include, in the case of oral mucositis, the teeth of the patient or foreign materials or substances, such as foodstuff or particles of food, beverages and other foreign objects or substances that may be introduced into the mouth of the patient.
- the physical barrier further helps prevent the introduction of bacteria into wounds, sores or ulcers on mucous membranes, thereby reducing the risk of infection.
- Preventing contact of the surface of a wounded mucous membrane with objects or materials that would otherwise be brought into direct contact may further help accelerate the healing process since irritation and infection of the wound can be avoided.
- the composition does not merely act as a physical barrier which protects wounded or sensitized mucous membranes.
- the ionic complex between chitosan and a negatively charged polysaccharide when applied to a mucous membrane, further provides a slow release of the negatively charged polysaccharide, e.g. heparin, to the membrane.
- the negatively charged polysaccharide present in the ionic complex is gradually released when the chitosan degrades.
- Heparin has inherent antimicrobial, antiinflammatory, pain relieving and wound healing properties. A slow release of heparin at the surface of a wounded mucous membrane is thus highly beneficial to a patient suffering from mucositis.
- the composition may be used in the treatment of patients suffering from developed mucositis, e.g. oral mucositis of WHO grade 1 , 2, 3 or 4.
- the composition may also advantageously be used for prophylactic treatment of a patient at risk of developing mucositis.
- Chitosan is a positively charged linear 1 ,4-bound polysaccharide based on ⁇ -D-glucosamine residues.
- Chitosan is formed by partial N-deacetylation of chitin, a polymer comprised, e.g., in crab and shrimp shells. N- deacetylation may for example be performed by treatment of the chitin with a strong base or acid and results in the conversion of acetamido groups to amine groups. In vivo, chitosan is degraded by lysozyme and other glycosaminodases to mono- and oligomers.
- Chitosan which is rich in N- acetyl-D-glucosamine is degraded faster in vitro, and probably also in vivo, than a chitosan with a high proportion of D-glucosamine residues.
- the chitosan used with the composition of the invention may generally have a degree of deacetylation in the range of 50 to 99 %. It has been found, however, that a chitosan having a degree of deacetylation in the range of about 80 to 95 % is especially useful in a composition for treatment of mucositis.
- the chitosan used in the composition has a degree of deacetylation in the range of 50 to 99 %, preferably in the range of 80 to 95 %.
- Chitosan degrades under physiological conditions, such as the conditions that may be present in the oral cavity or in the gastrointestinal tract, to physiologically acceptable, non-harmful and readily metabolized subcomponents.
- Most negatively charged polysaccharides also degrade under physiological conditions, such as the conditions that may be present in the oral cavity or in the gastrointestinal tract to non-harmful and readily metabolized sub-components, such as carbohydrate mono- and oligomers.
- Examples of negatively charged polysaccharides that degrade in vivo to naturally occurring sub-components include heparin, heparan sulfate and dextran sulfate.
- the composition may preferably comprise chitosan and a negatively charged polysaccharide selected from the group consisting of heparin, heparan sulfate and dextran sulfate.
- a composition is advantageous in that it may be biologically degradable and form non-toxic, naturally occurring and/or readily metabolized residues upon degradation.
- the negatively charged polysaccharide is heparin.
- the inventive composition consists of a chitosan- heparin ionic complex.
- the weight ratio of chitosan to heparin may be from about 1 :1 to 10:1 , such as from about 1 :1 to about 5:1. Examples of more specific intervals are from about 3:1 to about 4:1 , and from about 2:1 to about 3:1.
- the weight ratio of chitosan to heparin in the ionic complex affects the physical characteristics of the complex, in particular its rheological properties and adhesiveness.
- the composition according to this aspect of the invention, the number of positive charges contributed by said chitosan are in excess over the number of negative charges contributed by said negatively charged polysaccharide in the ionic complex.
- the charge ratio of positive charges in said chitosan to negative charges in said negatively charged polysaccharide is in the range of from 10:1 to 10:8, preferably in the range of from 10:3 to 10:6, more preferably in the range of from 10:4 to 10:5.
- a charge ratio in the range of from 10:4 to 10:5 is especially advantageous, since it provides very good adhesion to the surface of mucous membranes and wounds, sores or ulcers on mucous membranes caused by mucositis, while still providing a therapeutically relevant release rate of the negatively charged polymer, e.g. heparin, to the surface.
- the composition may preferably be formulated for topical administration. More preferably, the composition may be formulated for topical administration to the surface of mucous membranes. In an embodiment, the composition is applied in the form of a mouthwash.
- the composition may be in the form of a suspension of particles of the complex of chitosan and heparin in a liquid medium.
- the liquid medium may preferably be water or water based.
- the composition may be referred to as a suspension or a gel.
- the total concentration of the complex of chitosan and said negatively charged polysaccharide in said composition may preferably be selected such that a film of the complex is formed when the composition is applied to a surface.
- the viscosity of the composition generally increases with increasing concentration of the complex of chitosan and said negatively charged polysaccharide.
- the total concentration of the complex of chitosan and said negatively charged polysaccharide in said composition may preferably be selected such that the viscosity of the composition is capable of forming a film on the mucous membranes of the oral cavity of a patient upon rinsing of the patients mouth with the composition.
- the total concentration of chitosan and negatively charged polysaccharide in the composition may generally be in the range of from 0.1 to 5 %, preferably in the range of from 0.1 to 3 % by weight, based on the total weight of the composition.
- a suitable viscosity may for example be obtained when the total concentration of said chitosan and said negatively charged polysaccharide in the composition is in the range of from 0.5 to 5 %, based on the total weight of the composition.
- a total concentration of said chitosan and said negatively charged polysaccharide in the composition in the range of from 0.1 to 0.5 % by weight, for example in the range of 0.2 to 0.4 % by weight, based on the total weight of the composition is useful.
- the total concentration of said chitosan and said negatively charged polysaccharide in the composition is in the range of from 0.1 to 0.5 % by weight, based on the total weight of the composition, for example in the range of 0.2 to 0.4 % by weight, based on the total weight of the composition.
- composition may further comprise various pharmaceutically acceptable excipients and additives.

- the composition further comprises an antifoaming agent, for example a silicone based antifoaming agent.
- an antifoaming agent is useful to prevent foaming of the composition when applied, for example, in the form of a mouthwash.
- composition may also comprise additional pharmaceutically active agents, that may further improve the healing or pain relieving effects of the composition.
- additional pharmaceutically active agents include, but are not limited to, analgesic agents, anti-inflammatory agents and antibiotics.
- the composition may be useful in the treatment of all types of mucositis, e.g. mucositis affecting the oral cavity, esophageal tract, gastrointestinal tract, genitourinary tracts, and the nasal and respiratory tracts, but is particularly suitable for treatment of oral and gastrointestinal mucositis, especially oral mucositis.
- mucositis affecting the oral cavity, esophageal tract, gastrointestinal tract, genitourinary tracts, and the nasal and respiratory tracts
- the combination of the ability to form a physical barrier covering the surface to be protected and/or treated, and the wound healing properties of the composition makes it well suited for treatment of oral and gastrointestinal mucositis, such as esophageal mucositis.
- the mucositis to be treated is oral or gastrointestinal mucositis, and preferably oral mucositis.
- the most common cause of mucositis is the treatment of cancer by radiotherapy, chemotherapy or stem cell therapy.
- the composition is especially useful for treatment of this group patients, since the onset of mucositis may be relatively accurately predicted in relation to the commencement of a radiotherapy, chemotherapy or stem cell therapy procedure.
- the possibility of predicting the onset of mucositis allows prophylactic treatment of patients at risk of developing mucositis, thereby allowing treatment of the patient even before any symptoms are experienced.
- the composition may significantly reduce the pain and discomfort of patients receiving radiotherapy, chemotherapy or stem cell therapy.
- treatment with the composition, and especially prophylactic treatment may enable the use of higher dosages of chemotherapy, radiotherapy and/or stem cell therapy in the treatment of cancer in a patient, without causing more suffering for the patient.

- the treatment of cancer may include one or more therapies selected from the group consisting of chemotherapy, radiotherapy or stem cell therapy.
- the present invention provides a method of preventing or treating mucositis in a mammalian subject, by applying topically a composition comprising an ionic complex of chitosan and a negatively charged polysaccharide, selected from the group consisting of heparin, heparan sulfate and dextran sulfate, to a site in need of treatment.
- the composition is typically applied topically to the site in need of treatment, such as a wounded, damaged or ulcerous mucous membrane, or a membrane at risk of becoming damaged, e.g. because of a cancer treatment procedure.
- the composition may preferably be applied in an amount sufficient to form a film, which covers the surface to be treated or protected.
- the composition may be applied once or a suitable number of times during administration, such that a single layer film or a film having more than one layer is formed.
- a suitable treatment regimen may be determined by a person skilled in the art, depending for example on the grade and severity of the mucositis and on patient specific factors affecting the duration of the film.
- the composition may be applied in any form suitable for topical administration, such as a gel, suspension, lotion, cream, ointment, foam or spray.
- the composition may preferably be applied in the form of a gel or a suspension.
