The present invention relates to methods of preventing or reducing the need of colectomy. In particular, the present invention relates to an oligonucleotide, for use in the treatment of an inflammatory bowel disease, such as ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn's disease, in a subject that is refractory or responds insufficiently or is intolerant to anti-inflammatory therapy, wherein said oligonucleotide is repetitively administered as a single exposure. Further, the present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising said oligonucleotide for the prevention or reduction of need of colectomy.
Colectomy is the surgical resection of any extent of the large intestine and is often the clinical endpoint intervention for medical indications such as colon cancer and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), for example UC.
While the understanding of the etiology of UC has grown over the years, the picture emerging is one of a complex interplay between genetic (Cho and Brant, 2011; Thompson and Lees, 2011), microbial (Wine et al., 2010) and environmental factors (Cosnes, 2010) as well as intestinal epithelial function (Schmitz et al., 1999) and mucosal immune system (Heller et al., 2002). No factor alone appears to be sufficient to trigger the development of the disease and the contribution of each individual component may vary between patients (Xavier and Podolsky, 2007). Clinical presentation of UC depends upon the extent and severity of the disease however predominate features includes blood in stool, stool frequency, passage of mucopus and possible abdominal pain (Riegler et al., 2000).
Effective clinical management of active UC requires a comprehensive understanding of the disease extent, the severity and the potential risks and benefits of the available interventions with focus on the induction and maintenance of remission. Corticosteroids remain the cornerstone of initial therapy yet a third of patients will fail to respond, and further management involves critical and timely decisions on whether to use rescue therapy in the form of immunomodulatory drugs such as Ciclosporine A or anti-TNF therapies such as Infliximab (Turner et al., 2007). Current data suggest that rescue with Ciclosprine A and Infliximab are efficacious in the short to medium term perspective (Wilhelm et al., 2008; Filippi et al., 2011) but the long term outcome seems less efficacious (Sjöberg et al., 2011). Furthermore, a significant proportion of UC patients will have recurrent flares or chronic continuous disease despite receiving conventional symptomatic treatment and within a 10 year period, some 20 percent of these patients will require surgical intervention (Langholz et al., 1994).
While surgical intervention may be curative and provide a better quality of life (Weinryb et al., 1995), it is not without considerable risks to the patient (Ferrante et al., 2008) and the procedure itself presents a significant pre- and postoperative morbidity as well as an economic burden to the healthcare system (Rubin et al., 2009). Consequently, there is an urgent need for alternative treatments.
The present invention relates to methods of preventing or reducing the need of colectomy. In particular, the present invention relates a method, wherein an effective amount of an oligonucleotide comprising the sequence 5′-Xm-TTCGT-Yn-3′ is administered repetitively as a single exposure to a subject in need thereof, for the prevention of colectomy, wherein X is A, T, C or G, Y is A, T, C or G, m=0-12, n=0-12 and wherein at least one CG dinucleotide is unmethylated. Further the present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising said oligonucleotide together with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipient(s) and/or carrier(s), as well as exposure regimes of said oligonucleotide for preventing or reducing the need of colectomy. In particular, the present invention relates to methods of preventing or reducing the need of colectomy. In particular, the present invention relates to an oligonucleotide, for use in the treatment of an inflammatory bowel disease, such as ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn's disease, in a subject that is refractory or responds insufficiently or is intolerant to anti-inflammatory therapy, wherein said oligonucleotide is repetitively administered as a single exposure.
These and other aspects of the invention will now be described in further detail, with reference to the appended figures.
All patents, patent applications, and publications cited herein are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety.
As used herein, the term inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) refers to a group of inflammatory conditions of the colon and the small intestine. The major types of IBD are UC and Crohn's disease. The main difference between UC and Crohn's disease is the location and nature of the inflammatory changes. Crohn's disease can affect any part of the gastrointestinal tract, from mouth to anus, while UC is most often restricted to the colon and the rectum. In rare cases, a definitive diagnosis of either Crohn's disease or UC cannot be made due to idiosyncrasies in the presentation. In these cases a diagnosis of indeterminate colitis may be made. Other forms of IBD include, but are not limited to, collagenous colitis, lymphocytic colitis, ischaemic colitis, diversion colitis, Behçet's disease and indeterminate colitis.
As used herein, the term “chronic active ulcerative colitis” refers to patients with ulcerative colitis, typically with an active disease of gradual onset, with almost constant diarrhea mixed with blood.
As used herein, the term “colectomy” refers to surgical resection of any extent of the large intestine (colon). Herein, colectomy includes, but is not limited to, right hemicolectomy, left hemicolectomy, extended hemicolectomy, transverse colectomy, sigmoidectomy, proctosigmoidectomy, Hartmann operation, “double-barrel” or Mikulicz colostomy, total colectomy (also known as Lane's Operation), total procto-colectomy and subtotal colectomy.
As used herein, the phrase “elective for colectomy” refers to a subject who may choose to undergo the procedure of non-emergency colectomy based on physician and surgeon assessment. Subjects elective for colectomy may be, but are not limited to, subjects refractory to available therapy or intolerant of available therapy. This differs from emergency colectomy, which is an acute intervention for subjects with acute illnesses or injuries and who require immediate medical attention. The phrase also includes subjects that are elected for colectomy.

Patient Selection
Over the course of two and a half years 14 chronic active UC out-patients were treated with DIMS0150 (SEQ ID NO:1) as add-on to their current therapies with 3 subjects receiving 3 doses of DIMS0150 (SEQ ID NO:1) with 4 weeks between exposure occasions. A diagnosis of UC was established in all patients based on clinical, endoscopic and histological features. All patients were judged as being therapy failures with a documented history of not responding adequately to effective dosing regimens of available therapies including high dose i.v glucocorticoids and were considered for elective colectomy based on the treating physician and surgeon's assessment. Base line characteristics are given in Table 1. Subjects who were deemed likely to require prompt clinical intervention or cases of expected colectomy were not considered.
Safety and Efficacy
The suitability of DIMS0150 (SEQ ID NO:1) was evaluated as a potential rescue therapy to prevent colectomy, on a midterm basis of 6 months, if colectomy was elected as the preferred therapy option. Other objectives addressed response (a decrease in CAI score by ≧5 units from baseline) or remission (CAI score of ≦4 points) and the prevention of colectomy on a long term basis of more than 6 months.
Endoscopy was assessed according to the Rachmilewitz composed activity index (Rachmilewitz, 1989) scale (0-12) where endoscopic response was defined as a decrease of ≧4 units from baseline and complete endoscopic remission is represented by 0-3. Histological assessments were made in accordance to the Geboes et al., (2000) scale (0-5) where a response was defined as a decrease of ≧3 units from baseline and complete resolution is indicated by a score of zero. Complete remission was defined as a CAI score of 0 or 1, with a concomitant endoscopic score of 0-3. Clinical assessment of the efficacy parameters were made at weeks 1, 4 and 12. Those patients that received additional exposure(s) of DIMS1050 (SEQ ID NO:1) due to a relapse of symptoms were likewise evaluated at weeks 1, 4 and 12. For all visit occasions, adverse events were recorded.
Therapy
Eleven patients received a single intracolonical administration of 30 mg of DIMS0150 (SEQ ID NO:1) diluted in 50 mL of sterile water in addition to their current therapies. Application of drug was performed during colonoscopy with the aid of a spraying catheter inserted through the colonoscopies biopsy channel and delivered approximately to the upper portion of the descending colon or to the transverse region. In instances of a relapse (as determined by a deterioration of the disease of ≧4 CAI units) an additional exposure(s) of DIMS0150 (SEQ ID NO:1) was offered and the patient subsequently followed.
Three patients received 3 doses of DIMS0150 (SEQ ID NO:1) at 4 weeks intervals. Table 2 outlines patient's base-line characteristics and clinical response parameters, at weeks 1, 4 and 12 and time of additional exposure(s) in those subjects who experienced a relapse.
Single Exposure
After therapy with DIMS0150 (SEQ ID NO:1), 73% (8/11) of patients had a clinical response and 27% (3/11) were in remission by week 4. At week 12, clinical response and remission rates were 91% (10/11) and 73% (8/11) respectively, with 2 cases of complete clinical remission.
Endoscopic evaluation at week 4, showed that 64% (7/11) of subjects had a endoscopic response with 27% (3/11) in endoscopic remission. By week 12, an endoscopic response was seen in 73% (8/11) of patients with 45% (5/11) in remission.
Multiple Exposures
Three patients (p12-14)) were administered three exposures of 30 mg DIMS0150 (SEQ ID NO:1) as add-on to current therapies with 4 week intervals between each exposure. The clinical response parameters are provided in Table 3 and interestingly there is a clear improvement in the efficacy parameters at 12 weeks when compared to those values achieved with just a single exposure.
