Abstract
The present application refers to alpha-1 antitrypsin for use in combined therapy for the treatment of ischaemia, wherein the combined therapy comprises the simultaneous, sequential or separate administration within a therapeutic interval of alpha-1 antitrypsin and a tumor necrosis factor alpha inhibitor.
Description
Methods and compositions for treating ischaemia in a subject
This application claims the benefit of European Patent Application EP21382021.0 filed on 15.01.2021.
Field of the invention
Provided herein are methods and compositions related to treating ischaemia in a subject by administering to the subject a composition comprising alpha-1 antitrypsin (A1AT) and a Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (TNF-o ) inhibitor.
Background of the invention
Stroke accounts for more than 6 million deaths per year worldwide and is the first cause of chronic and severe disability in industrialized countries. On average, once every 4 minutes someone dies of a stroke and more than 5 million stroke survivors remained permanently disabled. With the actual increase in the life expectancy, it is even estimated that stroke-related disability will become more prevalent in the coming years, which overall supposes devastating effects that range from a decrease in patients' quality of life and increased mortality to large-scale economic consequences in the healthcare systems (World Health Organization).
The only approved therapeutic options for ischemic stroke are the intravenous administration of rt-PA and the mechanical removal of the clot with stent-retriever devices. Due to medical contraindications, these thrombolytic strategies are applied to less than a 15% of stroke patients. Moreover, patients treated with rt-PA fail to re-canalize the occluded brain artery in more than 50% of the cases, and approximately 40% of recanalized patients are still expected to present persistent poor outcome after stroke onset. Stroke-related long-term disabilities comprise numerous physical limitations, which causes social interaction problems and limited participation in economic life and family responsibilities. The growing demand for stroke care and the limited resources available for healthcare are also becoming a major socio-economic concern worldwide.
To overcome this devastating disease, there is an urgent need to seek ways to identify neuroprotective agents as adjunct therapies to actual recanalization strategies. Neuroprotective treatments might ideally reduce the progression of the disease from a very early stage, and consequently reduce stroke-related mortality and improve freedom from disability among stroke survivors. Ideally, these drugs would be safe and effective and might be given at the ambulance while transferring the stroke patient to the hospital.
Summary of the invention
The present invention is confronted with the problem of identifying potential neuroprotective drug combinations to treat stroke and other ischemia-related conditions. In this sense and as shown in the examples included in the present specification, the inventors found that combinations formed by alpha-1
antitrypsin (A1AT) and a Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (TNF-o) inhibitor have surprisingly good neuroprotective effects. The inventors have validated the neuroprotective effect of the selected drug combination and found a solid synergic effect in front of single drug treatment. For example, the combination of A1 AT with TNF-o inhibitor showed efficacy by protecting mouse brains from cerebral ischaemia, since it showed a reduction of 34.88% in the infarct volume compared to the vehicle (p<0.0001 , Figure 6A). However, none of the drugs when given alone was capable of reducing the infarct volume compared to vehicle group. Moreover, drug combination showed a significant reduction of infarct volume when compared to A1 AT alone (p=0.027) and TNF-o inhibitor alone (p=0.0003) (Figure 6A). Importantly, animals receiving the drug combination also showed a significant improvement in functional status after stroke (Figures 11 , 12 and 16).
Therefore, provided herein are methods and compositions related to treating and/or preventing ischaemia and/or for slowing or reversing ischaemia by administering to a subject in need thereof (e.g., a subject with ischemic stroke) A1 AT in combination with at least one TNF-o inhibitor. Provided herein are also methods and compositions to afford protection of neuronal cells by administering to a subject in need thereof (e.g., a subject with ischemic stroke) A1 AT in combination with at least one TNF-o inhibitor.
Thus, a first aspect of the invention refers to A1 AT for use in neuroprotection, wherein the neuroprotection comprises the simultaneous, sequential or separate administration within a therapeutic interval of A1AT and a TNF-o inhibitor. This aspect may be reformulated as use of A1 AT for the manufacture of a neuroprotective agent, wherein said neuroprotective agent is administered simultaneously, sequentially or separately within a therapeutic interval with a TNF-o inhibitor. Also disclosed herein is a method of neuroprotection, said method comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of A1 AT in combination with a TNF-o inhibitor, wherein the A1AT and the TNF-o inhibitor are administered simultaneously, sequentially or separately within a therapeutic interval.
A second aspect of the invention provides A1 AT for use in the treatment of ischaemia, wherein the treatment comprises the simultaneous, sequential or separate administration within a therapeutic interval of A1AT and a TNF-o inhibitor. This aspect may also be reformulated as use of A1AT for the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of ischaemia, wherein said treatment comprises the simultaneous, sequential or separate administration within a therapeutic interval of A1AT and a TNF-o inhibitor. Also disclosed herein is a method of treatment of ischaemia, said method comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of A1 AT in combination with a TNF-o inhibitor, wherein the A1 AT and the TNF-o inhibitor are administered simultaneously, sequentially or separately within a therapeutic interval.
A third aspect of the invention refers to a combination of A1 AT and a TNF-o inhibitor for use in neuroprotection, wherein the neuroprotection comprises the simultaneous, sequential or separate administration of the A1AT and the TNF-o inhibitor. This aspect may be reformulated as use of A1AT and a TNF-o inhibitor in the preparation of a neuroprotective agent for combined therapy, wherein the combined therapy comprises administering A1 AT and a TNF-o inhibitor simultaneously, sequentially or separately
within a therapeutic interval. Also disclosed herein is a method of neuroprotection by combined therapy, said method comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective combination of A1AT and a TNF-o inhibitor, wherein the A1 AT and the TNF-o inhibitor are administered simultaneously, sequentially or separately within a therapeutic interval.
A fourth aspect refers to a combination of A1 AT and a TNF-o inhibitor for use in the treatment of ischaemia, wherein the treatment comprises the simultaneous, sequential or separate administration of the A1 AT and the TNF-o inhibitor. This aspect may be reformulated as use of A1 AT and a TNF-o inhibitor in the preparation of a medicament for the treatment of ischaemia, wherein said treatment comprises the simultaneous, sequential or separate administration within a therapeutic interval of A1 AT and a TNF-o inhibitor. Also disclosed herein is a method of treatment of ischaemia, said method comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective combination of A1AT and a TNF-o inhibitor, wherein the A1AT and the TNF-o inhibitor are administered simultaneously, sequentially or separately within a therapeutic interval.
A fifth aspect refers to a TNF-o inhibitor for use in neuroprotection, wherein the neuroprotection comprises the simultaneous, sequential or separate administration within a therapeutic interval of TNF-o inhibitor and A1 AT. This aspect may be reformulated as use of a TNF-o inhibitor for the manufacture of a neuroprotective agent, wherein said neuroprotective agent is administered simultaneously, sequentially or separately within a therapeutic interval with A1 AT. Also disclosed herein is a method of neuroprotection, said method comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a TNF-o inhibitor in combination with A1 AT, wherein the TNF-o inhibitor and the A1 AT are administered simultaneously, sequentially or separately within a therapeutic interval.

Proteomics and transcriptomics data from human brain from ischemic stroke patients were used to enrich the mathematical model and to build a set of restrictions collated into a truth table, which all generated models had to fulfill. Drug repositioning strategy was used to search for combinations of FDA- approved drugs from the DrugBank.

Detailed description of the invention
Before describing the present invention in detail, it is to be understood that this invention is not limited to particular administration modes, patient populations, and the like, as such may vary, as will be apparent from the accompanying description and figures.
Definitions
All terms as used herein in this application, unless otherwise stated, shall be understood in their ordinary meaning as known in the art. Other more specific definitions for certain terms as used in the present application are as set forth below and are intended to apply uniformly through-out the specification and claims unless an otherwise expressly set out definition provides a broader definition.
It must be noted that, as used in this specification and the intended claims, the singular forms "a,” "an,” and "the” include plural referents unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. Thus, for example, reference to "a drug” includes a single drug as well as two or more of the same or different drugs, reference to "an optional excipient” refers to a single optional excipient as well as two or more of the same or different optional excipients, and the like.
"Pharmaceutically acceptable excipient or carrier” refers to an excipient that may optionally be included in the compositions of the invention and that causes no significant adverse toxicological effects to the patient.
"Pharmaceutically acceptable salt” includes, but is not limited to, amino acid salts, salts prepared with inorganic acids, such as chloride, sulfate, phosphate, diphosphate, bromide, and nitrate salts, or salts prepared from the corresponding inorganic acid form of any of the preceding, e.g., hydrochloride, etc., or salts prepared with an organic acid, such as malate, maleate, fumarate, tartrate, succinate, ethylsuccinate, citrate, acetate, lactate, methanesulfonate, benzoate, ascorbate, para-toluenesulfonate, palmoate, salicylate and stearate, as well as estolate, gluceptate and lactobionate salts.

"Treatment” or "treating” ischaemia or ischemia related disorders includes a prophylactic treatment before the clinical onset of the disease or a therapeutic treatment after the clinical onset of the disease and may be achieved by arresting the development or reversing the symptom of any of these diseases.
The present invention is for protecting neurons or neuronal cells from damage or cell death, in particular, as a result of an ischemic event. Thus the invention is for the treatment of ischaemia or ischemic-related disorders, are based upon administration of the following molecules: A1AT and a TNF-o inhibitor.
Alpha-1 -antitrypsin or a 1 -antitrypsin (A1 AT, A1 A, or AAT) is a protein belonging to the serpin superfamily. It is
encoded in humans by the SERPINA1 gene. A protease inhibitor, it is also known as alphal-proteinase inhibitor (A1 PI) or alphal-antiproteinase (A1AP) because it inhibits various proteases (not just trypsin). A1AT is a protein that was initially named "antitrypsin" because of its ability to bind and irreversibly inactivate the enzyme trypsin in vitro covalently. Trypsin, a type of peptidase, is a digestive enzyme active in the duodenum and elsewhere. The term alpha-1 refers to the protein's behavior on protein electrophoresis. On electrophoresis, the protein component of the blood is separated by electric current. There are several clusters, the first being albumin, the second being the alpha, the third beta and the fourth gamma (immunoglobulins). The non-albumin proteins are referred to as globulins. The alpha region can be further divided into two sub-regions, termed "1" and "2". A1AT is the main protein of the alpha-globulin 1 region. Another name used is alpha-1 proteinase P01009 inhibitor (o1 -PI). Its sequence is available in Uniprot database with the reference code (sequence version 3). It is primarily expressed as a precursor protein of 418 amino acids which contains a 24 amino acid signal peptide. The mature protein is a single polypeptide chain of 394 amino acids and three carbohydrate side chains linked to asparagine residues (Proteomics 6:3369- 3380(2006)). In most embodiments, the therapeutic combinations according to the present invention contain the mature protein. A1 AT in the sense of the present invention encompasses plasma-derived A1AT, as well as recombinant A1 AT. A1 AT is commercially available from several sources, for example, under the tradenames Prolastin®, Prolastin®-C, Prolastin®-C Liquid and Lynspad™ from Grifols, Aralast™ and Glassia® from Takeda, or Respreeza® and Zemaira® from CSL. In particular embodiments, the A1AT is selected from Prolastin®, Prolastin®-C, and Prolastin®-C Liquid. In more particular embodiments, the A1 AT is Prolastin®-C. The CAS registry number for human A1 AT is 9041-92-3.
Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-a, TNFa, TNFa, cachexin, or cachectin, or simply TNF - tumor necrosis factor -) is a cell signaling protein (cytokine) involved in systemic inflammation and is one of the cytokines that make up the acute phase reaction.

Treatments
Disclosed herein is the treatment of ischaemia, such as cerebral ischaemia, vascular ischaemia, cardiac ischaemia. Also disclosed is treating an ischaemia related disorder, such as traumatic brain injury. Also disclosed is treating stroke. In particular embodiments the treatment of the first to sixth aspects of the invention is the treatment of a disorder selected from the group consisting of cerebral ischaemia, vascular ischaemia, cardiac ischaemia, and/or traumatic brain injury. In particular embodiments the treatment of the first to sixth aspects of the invention is the treatment of stroke. The treatment comprises administering to the subject (e.g., a subject in need thereof) a therapeutically-effective amount of A1AT and a therapeutically- effective amount of a TNF-o inhibitor. The combination of compounds protects the neurons or neuronal cells from damage or death, such that prevention or treatment of the above disorders is achieved. A skilled person in the art will understand that prevention or treatment of the above disorders may not be absolute. Indeed,
partial neuroprotection may provide relevant advantages to the patients suffering from ischaemia, for example, in terms of functional performance.
In some embodiments the treatment comprises preventing that the neuronal cells are damaged by oxygen deprivation, or reducing the damage caused by oxygen deprivation in neuronal cells.
In some embodiments, the treatment comprises slowing or reversing the progression of ischaemia or an ischaemia related disorder; in particular for slowing or reversing the progression of cerebral ischaemia, vascular ischaemia, cardiac ischaemia, and/or traumatic brain injury. In some embodiments, the treatment comprises slowing or reversing the progression of stroke. The stroke may be ischemic stroke. In particular embodiments the stroke is ischemic stroke. In particular embodiments the stroke is acute ischemic stroke. In other embodiments the stroke is focal acute ischemic stroke.
In particular embodiments the combination therapy described herein is an adjuvant therapy with respect to a first-line therapy for the treatment of ischaemia. Thus, in particular embodiments of the first to sixth aspects of the invention, the treatment of ischaemia (or an ischaemia-related disorder) further comprises the simultaneous, sequential or separate administration within a therapeutic interval of a first-line therapy suitable for the treatment of ischaemia. The first-line therapy for the treatment of ichaemia or ischaemia-related disorder as defined above may be selected from a reperfusion therapy such as a thrombolytic agent, mechanical thrombectomy and combinations thereof. In particular embodiments, said thrombolytic agent is tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA), for example, Tenecteplase.
In some examples, provided herein is the use of A1 AT in combination with a TNF-o inhibitor, as an adjuvant therapy administered simultaneously, sequentially or separately within a therapeutic interval with respect to a first-line therapy suitable for the treatment of ischaemia. The combination is herein understood as the simultaneous, sequential or separate administration of A1AT and a TNF-o inhibitor to a subject. In particular embodiments, said combination therapy is for treating a condition selected from the group consisting of cerebral ischaemia, vascular ischaemia, cardiac ischaemia, and traumatic brain injury. In particular embodiments, said combination therapy is for treating stroke. In special examples, said A1 AT is used in combination with infliximab or etanercept.
In still some further embodiments, provided herein is the use of A1AT in combination with a TNF-o inhibitor, as an adjuvant therapy administered simultaneously, sequentially or successively with respect to a reperfusion therapy such as a thrombolytic agent suitable for the treatment of cerebral ischaemia or stroke and/or mechanical thrombectomy. In a particular embodiment, said thrombolytic agent is tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) or recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) or Tenecteplase.
In some embodiments of the invention, the A1 AT and the TNF-o inhibitor are administered in a sole pharmaceutical composition or in separate pharmaceutical compositions. In particular embodiments, the
administration of A1AT and TNF-o inhibitor is carried out simultaneously, for example in a single dose via intravascular bolus injection and/or via the intravenous route of administration that can be used for injections (with a syringe at higher pressures) or infusions (typically using only the pressure supplied by gravity).
In some embodiments, the treatment is administered within the first twenty, or within the first twenty four hours, or within the first twelve hours, of symptom onset. In particular embodiment, the treatment is administered within the first six hours, for example within the first three hours. In a particular embodiment, the disorder is stroke. In more particular embodiments, the stroke is ischemic stroke. In yet a more particular embodiment the stroke is acute ischemic stroke, for example focal acute ischemic stroke.
The therapeutic window for the treatment of stroke is quite narrow. Thus, it is desirable to administer the treatment as soon as possible after the stroke. However, state of the art treatments must wait until the etiology of the stroke is elucidated, since the treatments indicated for ischemic stroke are generally contraindicated for hemorrhagic stroke. Elucidation of the etiology of stroke must be made in the hospital using sophisticated imaging techniques. It follows that often precious time is lost while getting the patient to the hospital and elucidating the etiology of the stroke. In this sense, it is noteworthy that the treatment of the invention is safe when administered after an hemorrhagic stroke. As shown in the examples below, no deleterious effects were observed in hemorrhage volume and motor-neurological status in intracerebral haemorrhage mouse models. This means that the treatment of the invention might be given in the ambulance before knowing the type of stroke, saving time and improving the chances of recovery for the patient.

Examples
Example 1. In silico stroke modelling
1.1. Materials and methods
1.1.1. Therapeutic Performance Mapping System (TMPS) technology
We have used the TPMS technology, a top-down systems biology approach (Anaxomics S.L., Spain), for drug repositioning [Mas JM, Pujol A, Aloy P, et al. Methods and systems for identifying molecules or processes of biological interest by using knowledge discovery in biological data. US 2011/0098993 A1, 2010], In brief, TMPS approach included the following steps (Figure 1):
(1) Generation of molecular maps for ischemic stroke disease. A manually-curated list of known molecular mediators that characterize the pathology of ischemic stroke was created by carefully reviewing full- length published articles (287 proteins; data not shown). The generation and extension of the subsequent network map was conducted by incorporating all known relationships of the molecular mediators from this list, based on the following sources: KEGG [Kanehisa M, Goto S, Hattori M, et al. From genomics to chemical genomics: new developments in KEGG. Nucleic Acids Res 2006; 34: D354-7], REACTOME [Croft D, Mundo AF, Haw R, et al. The Reactome pathway knowledgebase. Nucleic Acids Res 2014; 42: D472-7], BIOGRID [Salwinski L, Licata L, Winter A, et al. Recurated protein interaction datasets. Nat Methods 2009; 6: 860-1], INTACT [Kerrien S, Aranda B, Breuza L, et al. The IntAct molecular interaction database in 2012. Nucleic Acids Res 2012; 40: 841-846], HDPR [Keshava Prasad TS, Goel R, Kandasamy K, et al. Human Protein Reference Database-2009 update. Nucleic Acids Res 2009; 37: D767-72], MATRIXDB [Chautard E, Fatoux- Ardore M, Ballut L, et al. MatrixDB, the extracellular matrix interaction database. Nucleic Acids Res 2011; 39: D235-40], MIPS [Mewes HW, Ruepp A, Theis F, et al. MIPS: Curated databases and comprehensive secondary data resources in 2010. Nucleic Acids Res 2011; 39: 220-224], DIP [Xenarios I, Fernandez E, Salwinski L, et al. DIP: The Database of Interacting Proteins: 2001 update. Nucleic Acids Res 2001; 29: 239— 41] and MINT [Chatr-Aryamontri A, Zanzoni A, Ceol A, et al. Searching the protein interaction space through the MINT database. Methods Mol Biol 2008; 484: 305-17], The final network included 6640 proteins (data not shown 1).
(2) Generation of the mathematical models. Static network maps were transformed into mathematical models (topological maps) through the use of Artificial Neuronal Networks (ANN) and pattern recognition techniques based on the optimization of generic algorithms, as previously published elsewhere [Romeo- Guitart D, Sci Rep. 2018;8(1): 1879], The multilayer perceptron (MLP) neural network classifier was the
algorithm used for ANN [Gybenko G. Approximation by Superpositions of a Sigmoidal Function. Math Control , Signals , Syst 1989; 303-314],
(3) Feeding of the mathematical models with experimental data from our lab. The machine learning methodology consisted of a model constructed by stratified clusters of neural networks, which was trained with a gradient of algorithms to approximate the values of a given truth table. The truth table incorporated a set of functional values and restrictions based on the available biological knowledge about the molecular mediators of the constructed network. Proteomics and transcriptomics data from human brain samples from patients who died due to stroke were also used to further characterize the truth table. In brief, own data from 4 different studies were included into the mathematical models: 2 different strategies of mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics with brain homogenates ([Cuadrado E, Resell A, Colome N, et al. The Proteome of Human Brain After Ischemic Stroke. J Neuropathol Exp Neurol 2010; 69: 1105-1115], MS analysis of microdissected neurons and brain blood vessels [Garcia-Berrocoso T, Llombart V, Colas-Campas L, et al. Single Cell Immuno-Laser Microdissection Coupled to Label-Free Proteomics to Reveal the Proteotypes of Human Brain Cells After Ischaemia. Mol Cell Proteomics 2018; 17: 175-189] and microarray-based transcriptomics with brain homogenates (unpublished data). Repeats and contradictions among MS-based studies were disregarded and gene information was transformed to protein data before inclusion into the model. In all cases, infarct, peri-infarcted and healthy contralateral regions were compared and 1876 differentially expressed proteins were finally included in the model (data not shown). Through this strategy, 4 different mathematical models were finally generated by selectively integrating into them all high-throughput information. These models simulate (I) healthy and (II) disease conditions (ischaemia), and (III) infarct and (IV) peri-infarct brain regions.
(4) Solving the mathematical models: drug repositioning strategy. Once the mathematical models were generated, drug repositioning solutions were acquired by perturbing them with multiple sets of stimuli, which corresponded to two-by-two combinations of drugs from the DrugBank Database (v4.3) [Wishart DS, Feunang YD, Guo AC, et al. DrugBank 5.0: A major update to the DrugBank database for 2018. Nucleic Acids Res 2018; 46: D 1074— D 1082]. Approximations to the best treatment solution for ischemic stroke were obtained based on three complementary approaches, which identified the best drug combinations for (1) treating ischemic stroke in general (disease model), (2) recovering the peri-infarct area and (3) promoting the conversion of the peri-infarct zone model to a healthy brain model and avoiding the conversion of the periinfarct zone model to the infarct zone model. All identified drug combinations had to fulfill a minimum threshold of ANN predictive value of 80%. This cut-off point corresponded to the maximum ANN predictive value obtained from screening in our mathematical models a set of previous unsuccessful treatments studied in clinical trials for ischemic stroke [19] (Table 1). To further restrict the discovery of potential drug combinations, the following specific filters were applied: (1) an approved-administration for all individual drugs; (2) a theoretical synergic effect of drugs when combined (higher than 20%); (3) no association to hypotension or hemorrhages according to public databases; (4) no incompatibilities for intravenous administration; (5) identified in the two proposed ANN strategies (disease and peri-infart area models) or in model reversion strategies. The following associated DrugBank categories have not been considered in the study: affinity labels, artificial tears, buffers, dietary supplements, food additives, food preservatives, imaging agents,
pesticides, photoaffinity labels, pigmenting agents and ultrasound contrast agents.
1.2. Results
1.2.1. Identification of neuroprotective drug combinations
To identify potential neuroprotective drug combinations to treat ischemic stroke, we applied machine-learning tools. To generate our systems biology-based artificial maps for stroke modeling 13 main pathological pathways were covered, which encompassed a total of 6640 proteins.
In brief, these maps were created and computationally converted into mathematical stroke models incorporating all biological knowledge available. It is important to remark that these models also incorporate datasets from 4 different proteomics and transcriptomics studies previously conducted in our lab on human brain samples from patients who died due to stroke.
Disease-orientated drug repositioning neuroprotective solutions were then acquired by perturbing these virtual stroke models with multiple two-by-two combinations of drugs. From all drug combinations that fulfilled the established criteria, the first 25 were pre-selected.
The combinations of A1 AT with any one of the following TNF-o inhibitors: infliximab, adalimumab, golimumab or certolizumab pegol showed the most promising results as neuroprotective drug combinations. These combinations showed higher ANN predictive value of neuroprotection against ischemic stroke injury, higher value of the predicted synergic effect and with experimental evidences reported in the scientific literature supporting the neuroprotective potential of the individual drugs. Said drug combinations showed an ANN predicted value of neuroprotection against ischemic stroke injury of 92%.
Thereupon, the potential role of A1AT and TNF-o inhibitors has been studied as an acute neuroprotective therapy after ischemic stroke.
Remicade® (Infliximab, Janssen Biologies) and Enbrel® (Etanercept, Pfizer) were used as TNF-o inhibitors in in-vitro experiments, while a neutralizing antibody for murine TNF-o (BioXCell, BE0058) was used in in-vivo experiments. Prolastin®-C (Grifols) was used for both in-vitro and in-vivo studies.
Example 2. In vivo safety and therapeutic effect of the combination of TNF-o inhibitor and A1 AT
2.1. Materials and methods
2.1.1. In vivo safety evaluation of the drug combination administration
In a first step, the safety of the drug combination administration was evaluated in order to discard any toxic effect derived from the pre-selected drug doses and the co-administration of the two drugs at the same time. The dose of each drug was chosen according to an extensive literature-based research on published studies. The final dose was 20 mg/kg for TNF-o inhibitor (neutralizing antibody for murine TNF-o (BioXCell, BE0058)) and 60mg/kg for A1 AT (Prolastin®-C (Grifols)). We initially evaluated safety outcomes on naive animals receiving one dose of the drug combination (n=5), or the respective drug vehicles (n=4) (Figure 2). Drug administration was performed via de retro-orbital sinus. 24h after the first administration, animals were sacrificed and blood was drawn through cardiac puncture, collected in EDTA tubes and centrifuged for 10 min at 3000g at 4°C. Routine clinical biochemistry parameters (including urea, alkaline phosphatase, creatinine, aspartate transaminase (AST), Alanine transaminase (ALT) and Creatine kinase (CK)) were analyzed in plasma samples in the Clinical laboratories from Hospital Vail d'Hebron (Barcelona, Spain).
2.1.2. In vivo determination of the synergic neuroprotective effect of drug combination
Thereupon, the neuroprotective potential of the drug combination was studied in a mouse ischemic stroke model. Transient ischaemia in the territory of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) was induced by introducing an intraluminal filament through the external carotid artery, as described elsewhere [Clark W, Lessov N, Dixon M, et al. Monofilament intraluminal middle cerebral artery occlusion in the mouse. Neurol Res 1997; 19: 641— 648],
In summary, animals were anesthetized and body temperature was maintained at 37°C using a heating pad. The regional cerebral blood flow (CBF) was monitored close to the region irrigated by the MCA by affixing a laser Doppler probe (Moor Instruments, UK) to the skull. Then, animals were placed in the supine position and after surgical exposure of the right bifurcation of the external carotid artery and internal carotid artery, a silicone-coated nylon monofilament (Doccol Corporation, USA; reference number: 602256PK10Re) was introduced to occlude the MCA. MCA occlusion (MCAO) was confirmed by a reduction in the cortical CBF recorded by the laser Doppler probe and the incision was closed with a silk suture. Within the first 10 minutes of occlusion, animals were treated with individual drugs, drug combination or vehicles according to their experimental group, and were allowed to recover from anesthesia. Ninety minutes later, mice were reanesthetized and the filament was removed to induce reperfusion of the MCA. Only animals that exhibited a reduction of 80% of CBF after filament introduction and a recovery of 75% after filament removal were included in the study.
An investigator blinded to the treatments evaluated the infarct volumes and the strength loss (trough a grip strength test) (Figure 3). After 24h, all animals were euthanatized. Blood was drawn and brain was removed and cut into 6 serial 1mm coronal sections. Infarct volume was assessed on these coronal sections using 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining. Infarct volumes were calculated by integration of the lesion areas, corrected for edema and expressed in cubic millimeters (mm3).
2.2. Results
2.2.1. In vivo safety evaluation of the drug combination administration
Animals receiving either drugs in combination or vehicles did not report any body weight loss (Figure 4A). Moreover, 24h after the last treatment administration, clinical biochemical parameters were analyzed in blood. All biochemical parameters showed similar levels between vehicle- and drug-treated animals (Figure 4B). Blood levels of urea showed a decrease in treated animals compared to their respective controls, but only increased levels of urea are cause of concern.
2.2.2. In vivo determination of the synergic neuroprotective effect of drug combination
We validated the theoretical neuroprotective effect of the selected drug combination (TNF-a inhibitor and A1 AT) and the synergic effect in front of single drug treatment. Drug combination showed efficacy by protecting mouse brains from cerebral ischaemia, since it showed a reduction of 34.88% in the infarct volume compared to the vehicle (p<0.0001, Figure 5A). However, none of the drugs when given alone was capable of reducing the infarct volume compared to vehicle group. Moreover, drug combination showed a significant reduction of infarct volume when compared to A1 AT alone (p=0.027) and TNF-a inhibitor alone (p=0.0003) (Figure 5A).
Also, animals treated with drug combination also showed an improvement in the grip strength at 24h after stroke when compared to vehicles, A1AT alone and TNF-a alone (Figure 5B).
Example 3. Compatibility of rt-PA with TNF-a inhibidor + A1 AT combination
3.1. Materials and methods. In vitro clot formation and lysis assay
A pool of plasma was obtained from 10 healthy volunteers (5 men and 5 women, age 78 [75.25-82.25] (median [interguartile range]), with no recorded history of coagulation disturbances. Blood samples were collected in citrate tubes and centrifuged at 4°C, 1500g for 15 minutes. All 10 plasma samples were mixed together for 2h at 4°C and then kept at -80°C until further use.
The assay was conducted in a microtiter 96-well plate. Twenty-five microliters of citrate plasma were added to 75 ul of assay buffer containing 0.05M Tris-HCI (Sigma-Aldrich, USA), 1 M NaCI (Sigma-Aldrich) and 1.245ng of rt-PA (Actylise®, Boheringer) at a pH=7.4 (rt-PA final concentration of 83ng/mL). A final volume of 50ul of activation mix containing 7.5mM CaCI2 and 0.03U/mL thrombin was then added to start the clot reaction. Internal controls without rt-PA were also run in each independent experiment. Optical densities (OD) were immediately read at 405nm and every 40 sec for 40 min at 37°C using a BIO-TEK Elx-808 microplate reader and Gen5 software. Three independent experiments were performed for each experimental condition. Within each experiment, samples were run per triplicate, and those with a coefficient of variation (CV) higher than
20% were excluded for the analysis.
A1 AT and Infliximab or Etanercept were loaded at two different doses: low dose, with a final concentration of 500ng/mL for A1 AT, 306ng/mL for Infliximab and 8,3ng/mL for Etanercept; and high dose, corresponding to a final concentration of 5000ng/mL for A1 AT, 3060ng/ml for Infliximab and 83ng/mL for Etanercept. To extrapolate drug doses from the in vivo experiment, a ratio between the in vivo and the in vitro rt-PA dose was calculated based to the in vivo commonly used 10mg/kg rt-PA dose. This balanced ratio was then used to extrapolate the low drug doses. High doses corresponded to a 10-times increase in the extrapolated low doses. To study the clot lysis, plate readings were interrupted for 1 min when all reactions reached their maximum OD to add drugs' volumes to the reaction. Note that in this case, the volume of activation mix added in the reaction during the formation of the clot is less than 50ul (50ul - volume of drugs added).
To analyze clot formation and lysis parameters, the elapsed time gap between the addition of the activation mix to each well and the start of the reading was always recorded in order to adjust the clot initiation time point. Analyzed parameters include the slope of the curve during the clot lysis phase (clot lysis rate) and the area under the clotting and lysis curve (clot area). Clot formation rate was also calculated to ensure equal clot formation rates among conditions before adding the treatments.
3.2. Results. In vitro characterization of the drug combination effect on rt-PA protease activity
Since the neuroprotective drug combination might be given to ischemic stroke patients together with or within a narrow time window before or after rt-PA administration, we further studied whether our drugs could produce any deleterious effect on the protease activity of rt-PA. To that end, an in vitro simulation of the formation of a blood clot and its lysis due to rt-PA protease activity was created.
To evaluate the effect of such drugs on the rt-PA-related clot lysis, drugs were added to the reaction after the clot was formed (Figure 6A). After adding the drugs to the formed clot no differences were observed in the clot lysis rate nor with A1 AT+Infliximab (Figure 6B) neither with A1AT+Etanercept combinations (Figure 6D). In addition, no differences were observed in the total area under the clot formation and lysis curve nor with A1 AT+Infliximab (Figure 6C) neither with A1AT+Etanercept combinations (Figure 6E). Thus, these results demonstrate no deleterious effects of our drug combination on the rt-PA protease activity in vitro.
Example 4. Neuroprotecting efficacy upon ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke of the combination formed by A1AT and a TNF-a inhibitor
Considering the promising results obtained in previous experiments, and following STAIR recommendations ("Recommendations for standards regarding preclinical neuroprotective and restorative drug development" doi: 10.1161/01 ,str.30.12.2752) we aimed to confirm the efficacy of the combination formed by A1 AT and a TNF-o inhibitor in neuroprotecting the brain in rats. To do so, two different TNF-o inhibitors were selected:
Infliximab and Etanercept. Etanercept is a fusion protein that mimics natural TNF-soluble receptor and bind to TNF- o and TNF-p, while Infliximab is a chimeric murine/human monoclonal antibody that bins to TNF- a. Both anti-TNFs bind TNF- a but Etanercept binds soluble TNF with more affinity than Infliximab.
First, we have tested the efficacy of these two combinations in reducing the infarct volume and improving the state of the animals in a rat model of cerebral ischemia. Moreover, considering that these combinations might be given in the ambulance before determining the type of stroke (ischemic stroke or hemorrhagic stroke), we have tested whether the administration of the drug combinations produced any deleterious effect in an intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) model in rats.
4.1. Material and methods
4.1.1. Drug doses
For this set of experiments two combinations were tested: A1 AT + Etanercept and A1 AT + Infliximab. The tested doses were:
A1AT (Prolastin®-C): 60 mg/kg (administration volume: 300 ul) Infliximab: 5 mg/kg (administration volume: 200 ul) Etanercept: 1 mg/kg (administration volume: 200 ul) Vehicle: Saline (administration volume: 500 ul)
4.1.2. Ischemic stroke model:
_Male Wistar rats (Envigo) 8 weeks old (200-225 g) were used for the ischemic stroke model. Animals were randomized for all experiments and assessments were performed in a blinded manner. Focal cerebral ischemia was induced by 70 min transient occlusion of the left middle cerebral artery and left common carotid artery (CCA), as previously described (Pradillo, 2017). Isoflurane (2% for induction and 1.5% during surgery) was used in a mixture of 70% N2O and 30% 02. Core body temperature was maintained at 37.0 C ± 0.5 C throughout the surgery by a heating blanket (Homeothermic Blanket Control Unit; Harvard Apparatus, Kent, UK). Ischemia was induced by a transient ligature of the left MCA trunk and CCA with a 10-0 suture (Prolene, Ethicon, Somerville, NJ, USA). Occlusion and reperfusion were confirmed visually under the surgical microscope. Right after MCA occlusion (MCAO), vehicle or drug combinations were administered intravenously via the tail vein. Animals were allowed to recovery during the MCA occlusion period. Seventy minutes later, animals were re-anesthetized to induce reperfusion by removal of the filament.
After surgery, animals were returned to home cages and allowed free access to water and food. Animals were excluded from statistical analysis based on an a priori exclusion criterion, namely if animals experienced brain hemorrhage, lack of reperfusion or if the surgery took longer than 45 min and there was excessive bleeding
Animals were kept alive for 72 h. Infarct volume was measured by MRI (T2W-images) at 24h, and behavioural and motor-neurological characterization was performed at 24h, 48h and 72h as well as body weight monitoring.
Behavioural characterization: Animals were tested according to the procedures detailed, modified from Hunter et al. (2000) at 24h, 48h and 72h (prior to euthanasia) after MCAO induction. First, assessment of each animal began with observation of undisturbed behaviour in a clear plastic cage: body position (completely flat, 0 to upright position, 4) and spontaneous activity (none, 0 to repeated vigorous movement, 3). Then, animals were transferred to an arena for observation of the following behaviours: transfer arousal (coma, 0 to extremely excited, 5), gait (absolute incapacity, 0 to normal, 3), touch escape (none, 0 to extremely vigorous, 3) and positional passivity (no struggle when held with a hand, 0, maximal struggle, 4).
Motor-Neurological characterization after MCAO: A neurological test was made by two unaware independent observers as previously described (Hunter et al., 2000) at 24h, 48h and 72h (prior to euthanasia) after MCAO induction. According to the test, animals were scored as: 0 points, No deficit; 1 point, failure to extend right forepaw fully; 2 points, decreased grip of right forelimb while tail pulled; 3 points, spontaneous circling or walking to contralateral side; 4 points, walks only when stimulated with depressed level of consciousness; 5 points, unresponsive to stimulation.
4.1.3. Hemorrhagic stroke model:
Male Wistar rats (Envigo) 10 weeks old (250-300 g) were used for the hemorrhagic stroke model. Animals were randomized for all experiments and assessments were performed in a blinded manner. Animals were subjected to an experimental model of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) as previously described (Rosenberg, 1990; Otero-Ortega, 2018). In brief, anesthesia was induced using an anesthetic chamber with 8% isoflurane in a 5-L/min oxygen flow and the animals were maintained using a face mask with 4% isoflurane in a 2-L/min oxygen flow. After intraperitoneal injection of meloxicam (2 mg/kg), the animals were placed in a stereotactic frame. Craniotomy was performed adjacent to the bregma, and intrastriatal white matter injury was induced by injection of 1 mL saline containing 0.25 U collagenase type IV (Sigma-Aldrich). Stereotaxic coordinates of the injection site with respect to the bregma were as follows: 0.04 mm posterior, 0.35 mm lateral, 0.6 mm ventral. Right after ICH induction, vehicle or drug combinations were administered intravenously via the tail vein. Animals were kept alive for 72 h. Homerrhage volume was measured by MRI (T2W-images) at 24h, and motor-neurological characterization was performed at 24h, 48h and 72h, as well as body weight monitoring.
Motor-Neurological characterization after MCAO: A neurological test was made by two unaware independent observers as previously described (Hunter et al., 2000) at 24h, 48h and 72h (prior to euthanasia) after MCAO induction. According to the test, animals were scored as: 0 points, No deficit; 1 point, failure to extend right forepaw fully; 2 points, decreased grip of right forelimb while tail pulled; 3 points, spontaneous circling or
walking to contralateral side; 4 points, walks only when stimulated with depressed level of consciousness; 5 points, unresponsive to stimulation (coma).
4.2. Results
We first aimed to confirm the neuroprotective effects of the combinations in a model of cerebral ischemia in rats, following STAIR recommendations ("Recommendations for Standards Regarding Preclinical Neuroprotective and Restorative Drug Development”, supra). Figure 7 summarizes the experimental design. In brief, rats were subjected to 70 minutes of MCAO. Animals were kept alive for 72 h. Infarct volume was measured by MRI (T2W-images) at 24h, and behavioural and motor-neurological characterization was performed at 24h, 48h and 72h, as well as body weight monitoring. Animals receiving either drugs in combination or vehicles showed a body weight loss, but no differences were observed between groups (Figure 8). In addition, both drug combinations showed efficacy by protecting rat brains from cerebral ischemia. Reduction in infarct volume for rats receiving A1 AT+infliximab was 11.21 % greater than rats receiving vehicle (p=0.0416), while the reduction in infarct volume for rats receiving A1AT+etanercept was 15.87% greater rats receiving vehicle (p=0.0103) (Figure 9). Moreover, both combinations produced an improved motor-neurological status of the animals at 24h when compared to vehicle, and this improved motor- neurological status was maintained at 48h and 72h in A1 AT+etanercept treated group when compared to vehicle (Figure 10). Finally, the behavioural status of the animals was determined at 24h, 48h and 72h, revealing that A1 AT+infliximab treated group showed improved behavioural status at 24h and 48h, and A1 AT+etanercept treated group at 48h and 72h when compared to vehicle (Figure 11).
Overall, our results revealed that the administration of A1AT combined with a TNF-o inhibitor, either Infliximab or Etanercept showed efficacy in neuroprotecting the brain after cerebral ischemia in rats.
Once we confirmed the efficacy of the drug combination in a model of cerebral ischemia, we aimed to discard any possible deleterious effect of the combinations in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), since the combination might be given in the ambulance before knowing the type of stroke (ischemic or hemorrhagic). Figure 12 summarizes the experimental design. In brief, rats underwent a procedure to induce intracerebral hemorrhage. Animals were kept alive for 72 h. Hemorrhage volume was measured by MRI (T2W-images) at 24h, and motor-neurological characterization was performed at 24h, 48h and 72h, as well as body weight monitoring. Animals receiving either drugs in combination or vehicles showed a body weight loss. Interestingly, animals treated with A1 AT+infliximab showed a reduced body weight loss when compared to the other two groups, and no differences were observed between vehicles and A1 AT+etanercept groups (Figure 13). Both drug combinations showed no deleterious effect when administered after ICH, since the volume of the hemorrhage was not different between groups (Figure 14). Interestingly, animals receiving
A1 AT+infliximab showed improved motor-neurological status at 24h, 48h and 72h when compared to vehicle, while no differences were observed between vehicle and A1 AT+etanercept treated group (Figure 15).
Overall, these results revealed that both combinations are safe when administered after ICH, since no deleterious effects were observed in hemorrhage volume and motor-neurological status in treated groups when compared to vehicles.
