DERMAL FORMULATIONS OF DP2 RECEPTOR ANTAGONISTS
RELATED APPLICATIONS
[0001] This application claims the benefit of U.S provisional patent application no.
61/230,585 entitled "DERMAL FORMULATIONS OF DP2 RECEPTOR
ANTAGONISTS" filed on July 31, 2009, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0002] Described herein are pharmaceutical compositions for topical administration to the skin of a mammal that include at least one DP2 receptor antagonist compound and methods of use thereof in the treatment or prevention of dermal diseases or conditions.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0003] Dermal diseases or conditions include, but are not limited to, dermatitis, psoriasis, eczema, urticaria, rosacea, burns, scarring and cutaneous mucinoses. In certain instances, dermal conditions result from an over-production of prostaglandin D2 and/or cytokines.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0004] Prostaglandins have a diverse range of activities and have a well recognized role in inflammation. Prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) is produced by mast cells, macrophages and Th2 lymphocytes in response to local tissue damage and/or inflammation and/or infection related to dermal diseases or conditions. PGD2 binds to a number of receptors, which include the thromboxane -type prostanoid (TP) receptor, PGD2 receptor (DP, also known as DPi) and chemoattractant receptor-homologous molecule expressed on Th2 cells (CRTH2; also known as DP2). In Th2 lymphocytes, IL-4, IL-5 and IL- 13 cytokine production is stimulated. These cytokines have been implicated in numerous biological actions including, by way of example only, inflammation, and/or eosinophil recruitment. Topical
administration of a DP2 receptor antagonist compound is used to treat or prevent dermal diseases or conditions. Topical dermal formulations of DP2 receptor antagonists, administered to any dermal site of a mammal, are used to prevent, ameliorate or treat DP2- dependent or DP2-mediated diseases or conditions.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0029] Prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) is an acidic lipid derived from the metabolism of arachidonic acid by cyclooxygenases and PGD2 synthases. PGD2 is produced by mast cells, macrophages and Th2 lymphocytes in response to local tissue damage as well as in response allergic inflammation and/or infection. PGD2 exerts a variety of biologic actions in the skin; these include scarring, mucinosis and inflammatory effects. [0030] Activation OfDP2 is associated with chemotaxis and activation of Th2 lymphocytes, eosinophils and basophils. PGD2 binds to DP2 receptors and mediates many of its effects through a Grdependent elevation of intracellular calcium levels and reduction of cyclic AMP. In Th2 lymphocytes, IL-4, IL-5 and IL- 13 cytokine production are also stimulated by DP2 receptor activation. These cytokines have been implicated in numerous biological actions including, by way of example only, immunoglobulin E production, mucous secretion and/or accumulation, and eosinophil recruitment.
[0031] DP2 receptors provide a target for the treatment of PGD2-dependent or PGD2- mediated dermal diseases, disorders or conditions, including, by way of example, immune diseases or conditions, (e.g. an autoimmune diseases or conditions (e.g., eczema, psoriasis)); proliferative conditions (e.g., melanoma); contact with an allergen and/or an irritant; a mast cell diseases or conditions; scarring (e.g., scarring after a trauma (e.g., surgery)); burns; cutaneous mucinosis; inflammatory diseases or conditions affecting the skin, or
combinations thereof.
[0032] Disclosed herein is the use of DP2 receptor antagonist compounds in the
manufacture of medicaments suitable for topical administration to the skin of a mammal for use in the treatment or prevention of prostaglandin D2-dependent or prostaglandin D2- mediated dermal diseases or conditions.
[0033] Described herein are pharmaceutical compositions suitable for topical
administration, methods for treating, methods for formulating topical formulations, methods for producing, methods for manufacturing, and treatment strategies using DP2 receptor antagonist compounds.
[0034] Described herein, in certain embodiments, are topical formulations that include a DP2 receptor antagonist compound for treating or preventing a dermatological disease or condition. In one aspect, topical administration of a DP2 receptor antagonist compound to a mammal minimizes systemic absorption of the DP2 receptor antagonist compound. In one aspect, topical administration of a DP2 receptor antagonist compound allows for local treatment of dermal conditions. In one aspect, local treatment of dermal conditions with a DP2 receptor antagonist compound reduces possible side effects associated with systemic administration of a DP2 receptor antagonist compound.
[0035] In one aspect, the dermatological condition is a result of the over-production of PGD2 and/or cytokines. In one aspect, the dermatological disease or condition includes, but is not limited to, dermatological immune diseases or conditions, dermatological proliferative conditions, a dermatological disease or condition resulting from contact with an allergen and/or an irritant, a dermatological mast cell diseases or conditions, a burn, a cutaneous mucinosis, an inflammatory disease or condition affecting the skin, or combinations thereof. Allergens and/or irritants include, but are not limited to, uruishol, alcohol, xylene, turpentine, esters, acetone, ketones. Dermatological immune disorders include, but are not limited to, eczema, psoriasis. Dermatological proliferative disorders include, but are not limited to, melanoma. Dermatological mast cell disorders include but are not limited to, fibroblast disorders including scarring, such as the formation of keloid scars, hypertrophic scars, and/or acne scars. Dermatological burn disorders include, but are not limited to, a first degree burn, a second degree burn, a third degree burn, or a fourth degree burn.
[0036] Described herein, in certain embodiments, are topical formulations that include a DP2 receptor antagonist compound for treating a chronic blistering disorder, psoriasis, dermatitis (e.g., contact or atopic), eczema, urticaria, rosacea, scarring (i.e. the formation of a scar (e.g., a keloid scar or a hypertrophic scar)), a first degree burn, a second degree burn, a third degree burn, a fourth degree burn, cutaneous mucinosis and/or melanoma. In some embodiments, a topical formulation disclosed herein comprises a therapeutically-effective amount of a DP2 receptor antagonist. In some embodiments, a topical formulation disclosed herein is administered before or after contact with an allergen and/or irritant.

Examples of polymers that gel at body temperature and are used in gels and/or films described herein include and are not limited to poloxamers (e.g., PLURONICS F68®, F88®, F 108®, and F 127®, which are block copolymers of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide). The liquid state-to-gel state phase transition is dependent on the polymer concentration and the ingredients in the solution.
[00192] In some embodiments, the formulations and compositions disclosed herein are administered as a dermal paint. As used herein, paints (also known as film formers) are solutions comprised of a solvent, a monomer or polymer, an active agent, and optionally one or more pharmaceutically-acceptable excipients. After application to a tissue, the solvent evaporates leaving behind a thin coating comprised of the monomers or polymers, and the active agent. The coating protects active agents and maintains them in an immobilized state at the site of application. This decreases the amount of active agent which may be lost and correspondingly increases the amount delivered to the affected area of the skin of an individual. By way of non-limiting example, paints include collodions (e.g. Flexible Collodion, USP), and solutions comprising saccharide siloxane copolymers and a cross-linking agent. Collodions are ethyl ether/ethanol solutions containing pyroxylin (a nitrocellulose). After application, the ethyl ether/ethanol solution evaporates leaving behind a thin film of pyroxylin. In solutions comprising saccharide siloxane copolymers, the saccharide siloxane copolymers form the coating after evaporation of the solvent initiates the cross-linking of the saccharide siloxane copolymers.
[00193] In some instances, the topical formulations described herein comprise pressure sensitive adhesives (e.g., polyalkyloxazoline polymers) and allow for application of an adhesive film to an affected area of skin.

The reactions are terminated by rapid filtration through Whatman GF/C glass fibre filter plates. The filter plates were pre-soaked in 0.33% polythylenimine for 30 minutes at room temperature then washed in Wash Buffer (50 mM Hepes, 0.5 M NaCl pH 7.4) prior to harvesting. After harvesting, the filter plates are washed 3 times with 1 ml cold Wash Buffer then dried. Scintillant is then added to the plates and the radioactivity retained on the filters is determined on a Packard TopCount (Perkin Elmer). Specific binding is determined as total radioactive binding minus non-specific binding in the presence of 10 μM PGD2. IC50S were determined using GraphPad prism analysis of drug titration curves.
Example 6: DP1 binding assay
[00208] The ability of a compound to bind to the human DPI receptor was evaluated via a radioligand membrane binding assay using the DPi selective synthetic ligand
[3H]BWA868C. Packed human platelets (Biological Specialty Corporation), were resuspended in 6 volumes of Hepes/HBSS buffer (10 mM Hepes, 1 mM DTT in Hanks Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS)), lysed and centrifuged at 75,000 xg to pellet the
membranes. Membranes were resuspended in Hepes/HBSS buffer to approximately 12 mg protein/ml. Membranes (20 μg protein/well) are incubated in 96-well plates with 2 nM
[3H]BWA868C and test compound in Assay Buffer (50 mM Hepes, 10 mM MnCl2, 1 mM EDTA, plus or minus 0.2% human serum albumin, pH 7.4) for 60 minutes at room temperature. The reactions are terminated by rapid filtration through Whatman GF/C glass fibre filter plates. The filter plates were pre-soaked in 0.33% polethylenimine for 30 minutes at room temperature then washed in Wash Buffer (50 mM Hepes, 0.5 M NaCl pH 7.4) prior to harvesting. After harvesting, the filter plates are washed 3 times with 1 ml cold Wash Buffer then dried. Scintillant is then added to the plates and the radioactivity retained on the filters is determined on a Packard TopCount (Perkin Elmer). Specific binding is determined as total radioactive binding minus non-specific binding in the presence of 10 μM BW A868C. IC50S were determined using GraphPad prism analysis of drug titration curves.

Example 7: Rabbit Wound Healing and Hypertrophic Scar Model
[00210] Following anesthesia, ear wounds are created in 10 young adult female New Zealand rabbits, 4 wounds per ear on each ear for a total of 8 wounds per animal. Wounds were created using a 7-mm biopsy punch with the wound created to go to bare cartilage. A dissecting microscope is used to ensure complete removal of the epidermis, dermis and perichondrium in each wound. For the hypertrophic scar model, it is the removal of the perichondrial layer and subsequent delay in reepithelialization of the defect that results in the elevated scar. Each wound heals independently and is considered a separate sample.
[00211] Two treatment groups are examined to study the early phase and a later phase of wound healing. The early treatment group (n=15 rabbits, 120 wounds) are treated with either the test compound formulated as a 0.05 - 1.5% by weight topical formulation
(solution, cream, ointment or gel) or placebo using the topical vehicle formulation post- wounding on days 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 and harvested on day 28 after wounding. The later treatment group (n=15 rabbits, 120 wounds) are treated with either the test compound formulated as a 0.05 - 1.5% topical formulation (solution, cream, ointment or gel) or placebo using the topical vehicle formulation post-wounding on days 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 and harvested on day 28 after wounding. Half of the wounds in each group are treated with active compound and half are treated with placebo. Each wound is covered with a sterile dressing (Tegaderm; 3M) and dressings are changed daily following each treatment and as needed until the wound appears reepithelialized on gross examination. Wounds are excluded from analysis if there is evidence of infection, desiccation or necrosis. [00212] At the end of each study wounds are harvested with a 5-mm margin of surrounding unwounded tissue. The scars are bisected and half of each wound is fixed in 4% neutral- buffered formaldehyde, dehydrated, embedded in paraffin, cut in 4-μm sections, and stained with Masson's trichrome or sirrus red. The other half of each wound is flash frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored for RNA extraction
Histologic Analysis
[00213] Light microscopy is used to examine each tissue section and the degree of wound healing and scar hypertrophy are measured with a calibrated lens reticle in a blinded fashion. Wound healing parameters: Relevant measurements are granulation tissue ingrowth volume and height, wound epithelialization, and wound closure. Each parameter is assessed twice and the results are averaged.
[00214] Scar hypertrophy parameters: The scar elevation index is determined as described by Lu et al, J. Am. Coll. Surg., 2005, 201, p391-397. The values are determined twice by in a blinded fashion and the results averaged.
Example 8: Rat abraded skin model to test for acute irritancy and skin penetration following dermal administration:
[00215] Male Sprague Dawley Rats (n = 3 per group) are shaved on the back such that approximately 20% of the body area surface is exposed. The shaved skin is mildly abraded then 2 mL of a 10 mg/mL solution of the test compound in a formulation containing 75% propylene glycol, 15% transcutol, 10% water is applied to the abraded skin. The site of administration is occluded for 24 hours after which time the skin is cleansed of excess material (if any). Plasma samples are drawn from each rat at 2, 4, 24 and 72 hours.
[00216] Visual analysis of erythema, edema or other dermal findings are recorded prior to dosing then at 24, 48 and 72 hours. Scoring follows a Draize protocol. A Draize score of zero indicates no irritancy of the formulation. The plasma levels of the compounds are recorded at 24 h.
Example 9: Effects of DP2 Antagonist on Mucin Levels
[00217] BALB/c mice were divided into groups and acclimatized in cages for 24 hours (day 0). The control group was exposed to air and the test group was exposed to smoke from seven unfiltered cigarettes per day for 8 days (day 1 to day 8). Mice were divided into groups and are administered compound starting at day 1 and up to day 13. On day 14, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) is tested for influx of cells, cytokines, chemokines (e.g., KC, MIP-2, IL-6), mucin, and/or proteins. Lung histology is also examined. One group received treatment with DP2 receptor antagonist 5-{2-[(N-Benzyloxycarbonyl-N- ethyl-amino)-methyl]-4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl}-pyridin-3-yl)-acetic acid (Compound 1; 10 mg/kg qd), a second group received treatment with FLAP inhibitor compound H (3-(3-(tert- butylthio)- 1 -(4-(6-methoxypyridin-3 -yl)benzyl)-5 -((5 -methy lpyridin-2-yl)methoxy)- 1 H- indol-2-yl)-2,2-dimethylpropanoic acid) (30 mg/kg, b.i.d.); and the third group received treatment with a combination of DP2 receptor antagonist Compound 1 (10 mg/kg qd) and FLAP inhibitor compound H (30 mg/kg, b.i.d.).
[00218] Figure 1 illustrates the effect of DP2 receptor antagonism and FLAP inhibition on the number of total cells, neutrophils and lymhocytes present in BALF. Figure 2 illustrates the effect of a combination of a DP2 receptor antagonist and a FLAP inhibitor on the presence of mucin in BALF. In the subchronic smoking mouse model, the effects of a combination of a DP2 receptor antagonist compound and a FLAP inhibitor compound on mucin secretion in BALF were additive, i.e., a combination of Compound 1 and Compound H reduced the amount of mucin in BALF more than each compound alone. In one aspect, the effects of topical administration of a DP2 receptor antagonist, either alone or in combination with a FLAP inhibitor compound, to the skin has similar effects (e.g., is mechanistically expected to) in dermal tissues as observed in the BALF.
Example 10: Mouse Epicutaneous Sensitization Model
[00219] Using the procedure described in Boehme et al, Internat. Immunol, 2009, 21(1), pl- 17 mice are anaesthetized and the dorsal skin shaved. Gauze ( 1X1 cm2) soaked in either PBS or 1% ovalbumin (Fraction VI) solution in PBS is placed on the exposed skin surface. The gauze is held in place using a bioocclusive dressing ( e.g. IV3000 MPV transparent dressing) and after 3 days the gauze is replaced with a fresh gauze patch kept in place for 4 days such that the total sensitization period is 7 days. The mice have a 2 week interval, then the 7 day patch protocol is repeated followed by a second 2 week interval and then a third 7 day patch protocol is carried out. One day following the last of the three sensitizations (day 50) the mice are sacrificed, serum and patched skin collected for analysis. Mice are dosed orally either with vehicle or with a DP2 antagonist compound in vehicle daily during the second and third sensitization periods. The patched skin is examined by histology, mRNA and for cytokine and chemokine levels.
Example 11: Effect of a DP? Receptor Antagonist Compound on the Treatment of Canine Atopic Dermatitis [00220] The protocol described in Nuttall et al, Vet Dermatol, 2009, 20(3), 191-198 was followed with modifications. Dogs with a canine atopic dermatitis (AD) extent and severity index (CADESI-03) > or = 50 are randomly allocated to receive either vehicle solution or drug solution (n = 15 each group) as a spray. Animals receive two sprays from 10 cm distance once a day for 28 days. The area treated is 100 cm2. CADESI score, pruritis and owner satisfaction (using a 5 point scale) is evaluated at day 28. Haematology and drug plasma concentrations are measured at baseline and at day 7, day 14, day 21, and day 28.
Example 12: Effect of a DP2 Receptor Antagonist Compound on the Treatment of Atopic Dermatitis
[00221] This is a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized study to evaluate the safety, efficacy and tolerability of a topically applied DP2 receptor antagonist in the treatment of subjects with atopic dermatitis.
[00222] Subjects are to read and sign an informed consent agreement and must be willing to comply with the protocol. Exclusion criteria include a diagnosis of an acute systemic illness; suspected viral, fungal or bacterial infection of the skin; severe hepatic disease or renal impairment; systemic treatment within the preceding thirty days and topical treatment within the preceding 30 days. Pregnant or lactating women are excluded and women of child-bearing potential must have a documented negative urine pregnancy test and must be practicing a medically proven form of contraception during the course of the study.
[00223] Two hundred patients with clinically diagnosed atopic dermatitis based on the evaluation of seven disease signs are randomly allocated to a placebo group and a drug- treated group (randomized 5:3 to drug treatmentplacebo). The seven disease signs (infiltration, scaling, erythema, lichenification, vesicles, papules, and excoriation) are each given a ranking using a four-point scale: absent (0), mild (1), moderate (2) and severe (3). The disease severity is determined by the total score for the seven clinical signs with a score > 6 being required for study enrollment. The drug treated group receive a dermal administration of a DP2 receptor antagonist compound formulated to an appropriate concentration of between 0.05 to 1.5% by weight in a clinically acceptable and safe topical formulation (solution, cream, ointment or gel). The placebo group receive the same topical formulation absent the active drug. Patients receive treatment once daily for 14 days with the treatment areas covering approximately 15% of the body surface on the basis of location, extent of involvement and severity of signs. Treatment is excluded on the face, hands, groin or axillae. Follow up study visits are scheduled for days 3, 7 and 14. [00224] Clinical Assessment . The seven disease signs (infiltration, scaling, erythema, lichenification, vesicles, papules, and excoriation) are each given a ranking using the four- point scale. The primary efficacy evaluation is based on the change from the baseline in the total severity score measured on days 3, 7 and 14. The efficacy of the drug treatment is also assessed by the investigator at day 14 based on overall improvement using the following scale: cleared (1), excellent (2), good (3), fair (4), poor (5), no effect (6), exacerbated (7). Patients also provide a self assessment on the final visit answering questions on: ease of application, lack of odor, and feeling on skin. Patients and investigators individually also provide an assessment of efficacy based on: excellent (1), good (2), fair (3), or poor (4).
