Patent Application
20220184117
This invention generally relates to infectious diseases and medicine. In alternative embodiments, provided are therapeutic combinations, including products of manufacture and kits, and methods, using at least one potassium competitive acid blocker or acid pump blocker, or at least one inhibitor of H+/K+ ATPase, for treating, ameliorating, reversing and/or preventing (acting as a prophylaxis) a Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) (HP) infection in an individual in need thereof.
The history of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) (HP) eradication dates back to 1984 when the first triple therapy was developed in Australia by Thomas Borody at the Centre for Digestive Diseases. It consisted of bismuth, tetracycline, and FLAGYL™. Its long term effects were reported in 1989 and it was dispensed to patients as a separately-prescribed combination written on prescriptions by most physicians until the commercial product called HELIDAC™ was placed on the market in several countries. Since that time numerous triple therapies have been described with the one most utilized being a combination consisting of a Proton Pump Inhibitor (PPI), amoxicillin and clarithromycin. However, there has been a progressive fall in the efficacy of this combination due to H. pylori (HP) developing resistance to clarithromycin and hence, alternate therapies are being sought.
While these therapies have achieved some degree of success, a significant number of treatments still remain failures (see for example, Akazawa Y et al. 2016, Therap Adv Gastroenterol, 9:845) which can result in adverse effects in the responding patients and antibiotic resistance in non-responders. To be clinically effective or useful, H. pylori (HP) eradication efficacy of a therapeutic regimen should reach close to or over 90%—otherwise it is really not sufficiently clinically effective. The existing amoxicillin and clarithromycin PPI protocols were initially able to achieve greater than 85% eradication and became the “standard of care protocols” in many parts of the world. However, the rising resistance to clarithromycin has brought an end to the clinical usefulness of this combination in numerous regions of the world. Some eradication rates have fallen from 90% down to less than 50%.

In alternative embodiments, provided are kits or products of manufacture comprising a therapeutic or drug combination as provided herein, or a therapeutic combination as used in a method as provided herein.
In alternative embodiments, provided are use of a therapeutic combination as provided herein, or use of a therapeutic combination as used in a method as provided herein, or a kit or product of manufacture as provided herein, in the manufacture of a medicament.
In alternative embodiments, provided are therapeutic combinations as described herein for use in treating, ameliorating, reversing and/or preventing (acting as a prophylaxis) a Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection in an individual in need thereof.
The details of one or more exemplary embodiments of the invention are set forth in the description below. Other features, objects, and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the description, and from the claims.
All publications, patents, patent applications cited herein are hereby expressly incorporated by reference for all purposes.
In a first aspect, forms of the invention described herein include the following:
In alternative embodiments, provided are therapeutic combinations (including formulations, pharmaceutical preparations or pharmaceutical compositions) using at least one potassium competitive acid blocker or acid pump blocker, or at least one inhibitor of H+/K+ ATPase, for treating, ameliorating, reversing and/or preventing (acting as a prophylaxis) a Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori, or “HP”) infection in an individual in need thereof, including products of manufacture and kits, for practicing methods as provided herein.
In alternative embodiments, therapeutic combinations, formulations, pharmaceutical preparations or pharmaceutical compositions as provided herein use at least one potassium competitive acid blocker or acid pump blocker, or at least one inhibitor of H+/K+ ATPase, to improve efficacy in novel combinations to achieve close to 100% eradication of HP infections; and this significant breakthrough is particularly relevant for those individuals in need thereof who have previously failed eradication of HP, or at least have failed to get any or clinically sufficient resolution of an HP infection and/or symptoms associated with HP infection.
The emergence of the potassium competitive blockers has brought a new dimension to HP therapies. These new acid-lowering medications, can so profoundly reduce acid secretion by parietal calls in the stomach that the pH can rise to 5, 6 or above for prolonged periods. It this rise in the gastric contents pH (or alkalinization) that permits the accompanying antibiotics to better destroy the HP in the mucus and first layers of cells. Efficacy is profoundly elevated making the eradication antibiotic combination therapies work ever so much better.
In alternative embodiments, therapeutic combinations, formulations, pharmaceutical preparations or pharmaceutical compositions as provided herein use the unexpected bactericidal activity of the new compositions mitigating resistance which give new life to otherwise failing of lagging HP eradication protocols, as discussed above.
In alternative embodiments, provided are therapeutic combinations (including formulations, pharmaceutical preparations or pharmaceutical compositions) which use a potassium blocking agent in a dose of between about 1 mg to 5 mg to about 200 mg to 400 mg per day, in conjunction with various other antibiotics or other antimicrobials or drugs. In alternative embodiments, the potassium blocking agent is administered for between about one to 30 days, or longer, for example, the potassium blocking agent is administered for between about one to 30 days at a dosage of between about 5 mg to about 200 mg per day.
In alternative embodiments, provided are therapeutic combinations (including formulations, pharmaceutical preparations or pharmaceutical compositions) which may be more effective than the standard protocols, for example, more effective than using an amoxicillin, clarithromycin or vonoprazan protocol. In alternative embodiments, provided are therapeutic combinations and regimens comprising or consisting of an at least one potassium competitive acid blocker or acid pump blocker, or at least one inhibitor of H+/K+ ATPase that may achieve significantly higher eradication than existing protocols.
In alternative embodiments, therapeutic combination as provided herein, and as used to practice methods as provided herein, are formulated and dosaged for oral administration as a powder, for example, a lyophilized powder, which can be inserted into carriers, for example, capsules, tablets, geltabs, and the like, for example, for administration to adults, infants or children to ingest.
In alternative embodiments, therapeutic combination as provided herein, and as used to practice methods as provided herein, are formulated and dosaged for individuals at an age of 2.5 years or above, where the children are unlikely to be able to swallow a capsule; thus, this provided are additional delivery vehicles, products of manufacture and devices to be combined with formulations as provided herein, for example, powders such as lyophilized powders, for example, lyophilized powder in a storage vehicle, for example, capsules, geltabs and the like; for example, provided are delivery vehicles, products of manufacture and devices manufactured as a container, a kit, a package or a pack of a “device and capsule” together, for example, operably associated such that the container, kit, package or a pack permits individuals, for example, the very young children and the older children (and including disabled or handicapped individuals) to ingest the product, for example, the lyophilized product, from the storage vehicle, for example, capsules, geltabs and the like.
In alternative embodiments, the container, kit, a package or a pack provides the ability of any age child (or disabled or handicapped individual, or any individual) to ingest or swallow the product (for example, a therapeutic combination, a formulation, pharmaceutical preparation or pharmaceutical composition as provided herein) within the storage vehicle (for example, capsule) by “draining”, for example, by puncturing, crushing, twisting or turning the container by hand or a device, or otherwise opening, the storage vehicle using a puncturing, crushing or equivalent device (operably built into the container, kit, package or pack), or by hand motion, for example, by twisting or hand turning (for example, by hand) the container, and thus allowing passage or contact of the contents of the storage vehicle to enter or pass into an ingestible liquid or other edible substance (for example, an ice cream or a yoghurt), which is also contained within the container, kit, package or pack, which can be initially (before the twisting or turning, puncturing, crushing or otherwise opening) in a separate compartment from the storage compartment. This twisting or turning, or puncturing, crushing or otherwise opening of the storage compartment and the passage or contact of the contents of the storage vehicle to the ingestible liquid effectively places the contents of the storage (for example, a powder or freeze-dry comprised of or within a formulation, pharmaceutical preparation or pharmaceutical composition as provided herein) into the ingestible liquid or substance, which can be for example, water, a milk, a yoghurt, an ice cream, a yogurt, a juice (for example, a fruit juice, an apple juice), an apple sauce, or a masking drink. The container, kit, package or pack can be designed as an infant feeding bottle, for example, comprising a nipple or teat for the very young.
In alternative embodiments, this simple twisting or turning, or puncturing or crushing device, allows the storage containers, for example, geltabs or capsules, to be punctured and/or crushed or otherwise “opened”, allowing the contents of the storage container, (for example, a powder or freeze-dry comprised of or within a therapeutic combination, a formulation, pharmaceutical preparation or pharmaceutical composition as provided herein), to fall out in to the liquid or food compartment, for example, to the bottom end of a device or straight into a bottle or a container held underneath or configured to be attached and underneath. For example, in this way a provider, for example, the mother, can purchase a supply of storage containers, for example, geltabs or capsules, convert them as needed into a powder capable of being mixed a liquid of her choice that the child will be ingesting.
In alternative embodiments, for those capable of swallowing tablets, capsules and the like, the storage containers, for example, geltabs, tablets or capsules, are manufactured as enteric coated to bypass the acid of the stomach and bile of the duodenum, such that the storage containers, for example, geltabs, tablets or capsules open (for example, dissolve) in the jejunum or below.
In alternative embodiments, further provided are instructions for use, for example, that when emptied into a drink, providers (for example, the mothers of infants or children) are advised to choose a drink or food that has its own buffering capacity such as flavoured milk, chocolate milk, ice cream, yoghurt, ice blocks, frozen icicles, or simply milk, for example, that is being fed to the infant or child by a bottle, for example, a milk bottle, with a nipple or teat.
In alternative embodiments, storage containers, for example, geltabs, tablets or capsules, or any formulation as provided herein, also comprises an antacid, for example, a calcium carbonate, magnesium hydroxide, propylene glycol alginate and sodium alginate, or the combination of aluminium hydroxide with magnesium trisilicate, magnesium oxide or magnesium carbonate, so that when the storage container is punctured, crushed or otherwise opened and put into contact with the liquid, for example, the feeding bottle, and ingested, there will be greater protection from acid damage.
In alternative embodiments, therapeutic combinations, formulations, pharmaceuticals or pharmaceutical preparations as provided herein are formulated or manufactured as storage vehicles, for example, tablets, geltabs, pills, capsules and the like; and in alternative embodiments, these storage vehicles are contained in, or contained in a kit with, or packaged with, or sold together with, a storage vehicle ‘cracking’, puncturing, or otherwise opening or releasing device (for example, as a powder, for example, as lyophilized material). These can be dispensed together, or configured together, or manufactured together, as a simple way of meeting the needs of both infants, the very young, older children and needful (for example, handicapped) adults; for example, as a powder, for example, as lyophilized material, for example, from their storage vehicles, for example, as encapsulated therapeutic combinations, formulations, pharmaceuticals or pharmaceutical preparations, thus permitting successful clinical administration on a frequent, for example, bid (twice a day), tid (three times a day), or once a day (daily) basis for prolonged periods, for example for up to one to two months, or longer.
Provided are multi-component delivery systems, for example, products of manufacture, comprising for example, formulations, pharmaceutical preparations or pharmaceutical compositions used to practice methods as provided herein, for example, formulated and dosaged for oral administration as a powder, for example, a lyophilized powder, and another component, for example, a liquid; these multi-component delivery systems, for example, products of manufacture, can be designed or manufactured as described for example, in U.S. Pat. Nos. 8,968,717; 8,931,665; 7,861,854; 7,018,089; 6,626,912; and, U.S. Pat. App. Pub nos. 2010/0034574; 2009/0180923; 20090232886; 2008/0160076; 2007/0087048; 2007/0036830; 2007/0074979; 2005/0205438; 2004/0089563.
Provided are compositions, including preparations, formulations and/or kits, comprising combinations of ingredients, for example, therapeutic combinations as described herein. In alternative embodiments, therapeutic combination can be mixed and administered together, or alternatively, they can be an individual member of a packaged combination of ingredients, for example, a liquid component and a solid product component manufactured in a separate compartment, package, kit or container; for example, where all or a subset of the combinations of ingredients are manufactured in a separate compartment, package or container. In alternative aspects, the package, kit or container comprises a blister package, a clamshell, a tray, a shrink wrap and the like.
In one aspect, the package, the kit or container comprises a “blister package” (also called a blister pack, or bubble pack). In one aspect, the blister package is made up of two separate elements: a transparent plastic cavity shaped to the product and its blister board backing. These two elements are then joined together with a heat sealing process which allows the product to be hung or displayed. Exemplary types of “blister packages” include: Face seal blister packages, gang run blister packages, mock blister packages, interactive blister packages, slide blister packages.
Blister packs, clamshells or trays are forms of packaging used for goods; thus, provided are for blister packs, clamshells or trays comprising a formulations, pharmaceutical preparations or pharmaceutical compositions used to practice methods as provided herein. Blister packs, clamshells or trays can be designed to be non-reclosable, so consumers can tell if a package has already opened. They are used to package for sale goods where product tampering is a consideration, such as the pharmaceuticals as provided herein. In one aspect, a blister pack comprises a moulded PVC base, with raised areas (the “blisters”) to contain the tablets, pills, etc. comprising the combinations of formulations, pharmaceutical preparations or pharmaceutical compositions as provided herein, covered by a foil laminate. Tablets, pills, etc. are removed from the pack either by peeling the foil back or by pushing the blister to force the tablet to break the foil. In one aspect, a specialized form of a blister pack is a strip pack. In one aspect, in the United Kingdom, blister packs adhere to British Standard 8404.
In one embodiment, provided is a method of packaging wherein the compositions comprising combinations of ingredients are contained in-between a card and a clear PVC. The PVC can be transparent so the item (pill, tablet, geltab, etc.) can be seen and examined easily; and in one aspect, can be vacuum-formed around a mould so it can contain the item snugly and have room to be opened upon purchase. In one aspect, the card is brightly colored and designed depending on the item (pill, tablet, geltab, etc.) inside, and the PVC is affixed to the card using pre-formed tabs where the adhesive is placed. The adhesive can be strong enough so that the pack may hang on a peg, but weak enough so that this way one can tear open the join and access the item. Sometimes with large items or multiple enclosed pills, tablets, geltabs, etc., the card has a perforated window for access. In one aspect, more secure blister packs, for example, for items such as pills, tablets, geltabs, etc. are used, and they can comprise of two vacuum-formed PVC sheets meshed together at the edges, with the informative card inside. These can be hard to open by hand, so a pair of scissors or a sharp knife may be required to open.
In one aspect, blister packaging comprises at least two or three or more components: a thermoformed “blister” which houses multi-ingredient combination as provided herein, and then a “blister card” that is a printed card with an adhesive coating on the front surface. During the assembly process, the blister component, which is most commonly made out of PVC, is attached to the blister card using a blister machine. This machine introduces heat to the flange area of the blister which activates the glue on the card in that specific area and ultimately secures the PVG blister to the printed blister card. The thermoformed PVG blister and the printed blister card can be as small or as large as you would like, but there are limitations and cost considerations in going to an oversized blister card. Conventional blister packs can also be sealed (for example, using an AERGO 8 DUO™, SCA Consumer Packaging, Inc., DeKalb Ill.) using regular heat seal tooling. This alternative aspect, using heat seal tooling, can seal common types of thermoformed packaging.
In alternative embodiments, therapeutic combinations, formulations, pharmaceutical preparations or pharmaceutical compositions are formulated, for example, as a powder, for example, as lyophilized material, for example, a lyophilized encapsulated product, for example, for practicing methods as provided herein, can be packaged alone or in combinations, for example, as “blister packages” or as a plurality of packettes, including as lidded blister packages, lidded blister or blister card or packets or packettes, or a shrink wrap.
In alternative embodiments, laminated aluminium foil blister packs are used, for example, for the preparation of therapeutic combinations, formulations, pharmaceutical preparations or pharmaceutical compositions as provided herein. Products or kits comprise an aqueous solution(s) which are dispensed (for example, by measured dose) into containers. Trays can be freeze-dried to form tablets which take the shape of the blister pockets. The alufoil laminate of both the tray and lid fully protects any highly hygroscopic and/or sensitive individual doses. In one aspect, the pack incorporates a child-proof peel open security laminate. In one aspect, the system give tablets an identification mark by embossing a design into the alufoil pocket that is taken up by the tablets when they change from aqueous to solid state. In one aspect, individual ‘push-through’ blister packs/packettes are used, for example, using hard temper aluminium (for example, alufoil) lidding material. In one aspect, hermetically-sealed high barrier aluminium (for example, alufoil) laminates are used. In one aspect, products of manufacture include kits or blister packs, use foil laminations and strip packs, stick packs, sachets and pouches, peelable and non-peelable laminations combining foil, paper, or film for high barrier packaging.
Provided are products of manufacture and kits for practicing methods as provided herein, comprising a therapeutic combination, a formulation, a pharmaceutical preparation or a pharmaceutical composition as provided herein.
In alternative embodiments, multi-component products of manufacture, including kits or blister packs as provided herein, include memory aids to help remind patients when and how to take the therapeutic combination. This safeguards the therapeutic combination's efficacy by protecting each tablet, geltab or pill until it's taken; gives the product or kit portability, makes it easy to take a dose anytime or anywhere.
The invention will be further described with reference to the examples described herein; however, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to such examples.
A number of embodiments of the invention have been described. Nevertheless, it can be understood that various modifications may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Accordingly, other embodiments are within the scope of the following claims.
Four male patients aged 32 y to 64 y were included in a small trial to examine the efficacy of eradicating resistant Helicobacter pylori. They were treated with tegoprazan (two patients with 200 mg tds and two with 400 mg tds) in combination with amoxicillin 500 mg tds and clarithromycin 250 mg tds with minimal adverse effects. The treatment lasted 10 days. On retesting at six weeks with the urea breath test, all four patients had managed to achieve eradication of H. pylori. This indicates that even 200 mg tds can eradicate the resistant infection using this combination. This is in spite of the fact that the patients had previously failed to be cured by standard Nexium-containing therapies administered between two and four times.
An 82 y old female with a chronic gastric lesser curve ulcer with H. pylori infection on endoscopy was originally treated by her attending gastroenterologist—but pain continued and she was referred for second opinion. On her next gastroscopy multiple biopsies were collected but none showed cancer nor dysplasia. Presence of H. pylori was confirmed. Given previous failure when treated with amoxicillin (500 mg tds), rifabutin (150 mg tds) and omeprazole (20 mg tds) (Talicia)—she was treated with revaprazan (150 mg tds) in the place of omeprazole. Pain progressively subsided and a urea breath test at 5 weeks showed no evidence of Helicobacter. She underwent a subsequent gastroscopy 3 months later and H. pylori was absent on histology and urease test, and the gastric ulcer was healed, with minor scarring. The revaprazan helped the antibiotics to work well.
Two patients with chronic H. pylori infection and epigastric pain were found on urea breath test and gastroscopy to be infected but ulcer-free. One had failed ‘Nexium HP 7’ treatment whilst the other had never received H. pylori treatment. Using compounded linaprazan capsules, taken as 100 mg×3/day both patients were treated for 10 days in combination with bismuth subsalicylate 300 mg tds, tetracycline HC1250 mg tds, and tinidazole 250 mg tds (along with the linaprazan). Urea breath test was negative at 4 and 5 weeks respectively in these patients, now cured of the infection and pain free.
A small prospective study was carried out in 6 patients with H. pylori infection referred by their family physicians after they had continued to be infected in spite of an esomeprazole:amoxil:clarithromycin therapy judged by urea breath tests (UBT). All had dyspepsia symptoms. They were investigated by gastroscopy, found to have no stomach cancer nor ulcer but had evidence of H. pylori on histology and UBT. Each was treated using tegoprazan 400 mg tds combined with high dose amoxicillin (1.5 g tds) both for 14 days (double therapy). All 6 were cured of the infection when UBT was repeated at 4-6 weeks. Followed up they remained UBT negative on their second UBT at 3-6 months. This ‘double therapy’ was successful in all.
The present application claims priority to U.S. 62/835,996, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by cross-reference.
