The present invention relates to a composition for controlling pest rodents, to a use of the composition as rodenticide, to a pest rodent bait containing the composition, and to a method for controlling pest rodents.
Compositions for controlling pest rodents are known per se. Wild rodents have long been a considerable problem for human health, property and food supply. Even as far back as the pharaonic period, cats were used against rodents. Just taking the rat as an example, almost 70 diseases are know, many of which can be transmitted to humans, such as bubonic plague, typhoid fever or Weil's disease. Wild rodents constitute an economic threat in agriculture. Economic harm is caused not only by their consumption of feed or food but also, above all, by contamination by droppings and urine. It is estimated that approximately 10% of the global food supply is consumed or damaged by rats alone. Livestock diseases such as foot-and-mouth disease or swine fever are also transmitted by wild rodents. In addition, further damage is also inflicted on buildings and equipment, since wild rodents can also, for example, damage water and wastewater pipes, and cables.
The most widespread method for controlling such pest rodents is the use of edible bait—in some cases, storerooms and/or underground rodent tunnels are also fumigated. There are specific requirements on suitable active ingredients for edible bait. Rats live in groups, exhibit distinctive social behavior and have a good memory. Young males volunteer to be food tasters, while the other rats wait for the next few hours. If the food taster dies within two days because it has eaten poisoned bait, their conspecifics no longer touch the bait. An active ingredient suitable as rodenticide therefore has to exhibit a correspondingly delayed onset of action, such that conspecifics of the food taster are not deterred from consuming a corresponding bait. The rodenticides used currently for edible bait are customarily anticoagulants, since zinc phosphide, typically used in earlier times in poisoned wheat, arsenic compounds, barium carbonate. strychnine and white phosphorus have not been authorized as rodenticides for some time.
In hemostasis, platelets first adhere to tissue structures, aggregate together and form a hemostatic plug. The aggregation of platelets to one another is mediated by the binding of fibrinogen and Ca2+ to receptors on the platelets. In the secondary phase, the fibrin formation phase, the fibrin formed strengthens the hemostatic plug. Actual blood clotting is therefore the conversion of soluble fibrinogen to insoluble fibrin. The activation of blood clotting results in a prothrombinase complex composed of factor Xa factor Va. phospholipid and Ca2+. The key enzyme in blood clotting is the protease thrombin. Thrombin catalyzes the conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin by cleaving the fibrinopeptides A and B from the fibrinogen. The resulting fibrin monomers aggregate to form polymers.
For poisoning rodents, such as rats, mice, voles, rabbits, opposums and ground squirrels, use has to date been made, inter alia, of warfarin, coumatetralyl, diphacinone, flocoumafen. brodifacoum and bromadiolone. Warfarin is (RS)-4-hydroxy-3-(3-oxo-1-phenylbutyl)coumarin, and coumatetralyl is 4-hydroxy-3-(1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-naphthyl)coumarin. Difenacoum is 3-(3-biphenyl-4-yl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-naphthyl)-4-hydroxycoumarin, flocoumafen is 4-hydroxy-3-[3-(4′-trifluoromethylbenzyloxyphenyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-naphthyl]coumarin, brodifacoum is 3-(3-(4′-bromo-1,1′-biphenyl-4-yl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-naphthyl)-4-hydroxycoumarin, bromadiolone is 3-[3-(4′-bromobiphenyl-4-yl)-3-hydroxy-1-phenylpropyl]-4-hydroxycoumarin. Therefore, these are coumarins. Coumarins. derivatives of 4-hydroxycoumarin or 1,3-indanedione, are vitamin K antagonists because they block the enzymes vitamin K quinone reductase and vitamin K epoxide reductase.
Vitamin K is required as a cofactor for the post-translational γ-carboxylation of N-terminal glutamic acid residues in a number of proteins also including clotting factors II, VII, IX and X and also the clotting modulators protein C and protein S. Coumarins, for example phenprocoumon (Marcumar®, Falithrom®) or warfarin (Couxnadin®) are therefore indirectly-acting anticoagulants. According to the different biological half-lives of vitamin K-dependent clotting factors, the maximum coumarin effect manifests only after a considerable delay; in humans, this is 24 to 36 hours.
Two further known rodenticides are difenacoum (2-(diphenylacetyl)-1H-indene-1,3(2H)-dione) and pindone (2-pivaloyl-1,3-indanedione). As indanedione compounds, they act as vitamin K antagonists, like a coumarin.
The efficacy of coumarins and indanedione compounds is based on the slow accumulation of the substance in the animal's body and on the resulting increase in clotting inhibition, as a result of which the animals suffer internal bleeding. It is precisely this gradual-onset poisoning effect which made coumarins and indanedione compounds so particularly successful as pest rodent poisons.
When consuming bait filled with a coumarin or indanedione compound. the rats initially remain alive, and do not exhibit any symptoms of poisoning. A wild rodent such as a rat which feeds regularly on the baited food therefore does not die directly or shortly after consuming the bait, and rather remains alive for a few days before ultimately bleeding internally. This therefore also applies to a “food taster rat”. The protective social behavior of rats is therefore effectively circumvented and the food bait containing the pesticide (coumarin/indanedione) is not avoided by the rat population. In fact, the entire rat population feed from the readily available bait, which leads, albeit with a delay, to the complete extinction of the entire rat population. Regularly offered bait containing a coumarin or indanedione compound has therefore reliably led to the ensured extinction of large populations of rats.
Meanwhile, because of the widespread use of coumarin and indanedione compounds, it is to be expected that almost a third to a half of all rat strains worldwide have developed marked resistance to coumarin and indanedione compounds. This resistance is based on an alternative pathway to the reduction of vitamin K, which is also present and is dependent on thiol (SH—)/disulfide (S—S). Unlike in humans, where the thiol-dependent reduction pathway is generally only insufficiently developed, there are currently a number of rat strains which can activate this alternative vitamin K reduction pathway. Where coumarins have been used for long periods as pesticides, the thiol-dependent reduction pathway held a significant selective advantage for rats. Over the many decades during which coumarin bait has been used highly efficiently, coumarin-resistant strains in particular have been able to reproduce undisturbed, such that during this time there has been considerable selection for this coumarin-resistant strain.
A significant problem of such anticoagulants is therefore, in addition to persistence and/or bioaccumulation, widespread resistance in wild rodents. Resistance to an anticoagulant was found as early as the 1950s. Initially, only first-generation anticoagulants such as warfarin and coumatetralyl were affected, but resistance to more effective second-generation anticoagulants such as difenacoum or bromadiolone was also observed later. Since then, more than 40% of all rat strains are resistant to these anticoagulants.
Moreover, since 1 Jan. 2013, the selling of conventional rodenticides in the European Union was actually supposed to be no longer authorized due to the concentration in the environment exceeding the level predicted to be harmless to organisms. However, due to the lack of alternatives, competent professionals are still authorized to use them for the time being.
There is therefore a need for an effective way to control wild rodents.
Therefore, the object of the present invention is to provide a composition for controlling pest rodents that overcomes the disadvantages of known compositions. In particular, the object of the present invention is to provide compositions for controlling pest rodents that circumvent resistance to known vitamin K antagonists in order to have high efficacy and comparatively low environmental impact.
This object is solved by the composition according to claim 1 and also by the use according to claim 12, the pest rodent bait according to claim 13 and the method according to claim 14. Preferred configurations of the invention are given in the dependent claims and in the description, it being possible for further features shown in the dependent claims or in the description to constitute, individually or in any desired combination, a subject of the invention, unless clearly shown otherwise from the context.
Unless otherwise specified. the following terms and expressions, when used in this document including the description and the claims, have the following meanings.
The term “aliphatic” as used in this document can relate both to a chemical group and to a chemical compound as a whole, depending on the context. The term means, unless otherwise indicated, that a straight-chain or branched hydrocarbon chain is present, which may be saturated, monounsaturated or polyunsaturated and may contain one or more heteroatoms. Heteroatoms are atoms other than carbon, such as N, O, S, Se or Si. An unsaturated aliphatic group contains one or more double and/or triple bonds, i.e. alkene and/or alkyne groups. The branches of the hydrocarbon chain can have linear chains and also non-aromatic cyclic elements. Unless otherwise indicated. the hydrocarbon chain can have any desired length and any desired number of branches. In typical embodiments, the hydrocarbon main chain contains up to approximately 20 carbon atoms, for example 1 to approximately 15 carbon atoms. In some embodiments, the hydrocarbon main chain has 2 to approximately 10 carbon atoms. Examples of alkyl groups are methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl, pentyl, hexyl, heptyl, octyl (caprylyl), nonyl (pelargonyl), decyl (capryl), dodecyl (lauryl), tetradecyl (myristyl), hexadecyl (cetyl), the n-isomers of these groups, isopropyl, isobutyl, isopentyl, sec-butyl, tert-butyl, neopentyl or 3,3-dimethylbutyl.
The term “cycloaliphatic”, equivalent to “alicyclic”, relates, unless otherwise indicated, to a non-aromatic cyclic chemical structure, typically a cyclic hydrocarbon radical. Such a ring structure can be saturated. Such a ring structure can contain one or more double bonds. This cyclic structure can contain a plurality of closed rings, which can for example be fused into decalin. A cycloaliphatic group and a cycloaliphatic molecule can be substituted with one or more non-aromatic rings, chain elements or functional groups. If a cycloaliphatic structure is substituted with an aromatic, this group or this molecule is also referred to as arylalicyclic. Unless otherwise indicated, the main chain of a cycloaliphatic hydrocarbon unit can have any desired number of non-aromatic rings or chain elements in a ring. In some embodiments, a main chain of a cycloaliphatic hydrocarbon unit can have 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 main chain atoms in a ring. Illustrative examples of such units are cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, cycloheptyl or cyclooctyl. A cycloaliphatic hydrocarbon unit can furthermore have heteroatoms. both within the main chain and in substituents such as a side chain or a cyclic substituent. Examples of such heteroatoms are N, O, S, Se or Si.
The term “aromatic” as used in this document relates to a planar cyclic hydrocarbon unit, both as a complete molecule and also as a chemical group or radical. An aromatic hydrocarbon unit is characterized by conjugated double bonds. An aromatic unit can have a single ring or a plurality of fused or covalently bonded rings. Illustrative examples of corresponding units are cylcopentadienyl, phenyl, naphthalenyl, [10]annulenyl-(1,3,5,7,9-cyclodecapentaenyl), [12]annulenyl, [8]annulenyl, phenalene (perinaphthene), 1,9-dihydropyrene or chrysene (1,2-benzophenanthrene). An individual aromatic ring typically has 5, 6, 7 or 8 main chain atoms. An aromatic unit can contain substituents such as functional groups or aliphatic groups. The term “aromatic” also covers “arylalkyl”, for instance a benzyl unit. An aromatic hydrocarbon unit can furthermore have heteroatoms, both within the main chain and in substituents, for instance a side chain. Examples of such heteroatoms are N, O, S or Se. Examples of heteroaromatic hydrocarbon units include furanyl, thiophenyl, naphthyl, naphthofuranyl, anthrathiophenyl, pyridinyl, pyrrolyl, quinolinyl, naphthoquinolinyl, quinoxalinyl, indolyl, benzindolyl, imidazolyl, oxazolyl, oxoninyl, oxepinyl, benzoxepinyl, azepinyl, thiepinyl, selenepinyl, thioninyl, azecinyl (azacyclodecapentaenyl), diazecinyl, azacyclododeca-1,3,5,7,9,11-hexaen-5,9-diyl, azozinyl, diazocinyl, benzazocinyl, azecinyl, azaundecinyl, thia[11 ]annulenyl, oxacyclotrideca-2,4,6,8,10,12-hexaenyl or triazaanthracenyl units.
The term “arylaliphatic” relates to hydrocarbon units containing one or more aromatic units and one or more aliphatic units, with one or more aromatic units being bonded to one or more aliphatic units. In some embodiments, a hydrocarbon main chain contains 5, 6, 7 or 8 main chain atoms in one aromatic ring of an arylaliphatic unit. Examples of arylaliphatic units include 1-ethylnaphthaline, 1,1′-methylenebisbenzene, 9-isopropylanthracene, 1,2,3-trimethylbenzene, 4-phenyl-2-buten-1-ol, 7-chloro-3-(1-methylethyl)-quinoline, 3-heptylfuran, 6-[2-(2,5-diethylphenyl)ethyl]-4-ethyl-quinazoline or 7,8-dibutyl-5,6-diethylisoquinoline.
The terms “control” and “controlling” as used in this document relate to a measure which succeeds in killing an unwanted organism, in the present case a pest rodent. In some embodiments, “control” has a meaning that corresponds to “combating”. “Control” and “controlling” denote for example causing, accelerating, promoting, including enabling, an abnormal, including pathological, state to arise in an organism of a pest rodent. Typically, “controlling” includes a method and/or a use in which a compound is administered to cells or tissue of a pest rodent. The terms “control” and “controlling” also generally include elements of the method and/or the use which make it possible to administer a corresponding compound to cells or tissue of a pest rodent. In the method and uses disclosed here, such elements that enable administration typically relate to the time frame of the onset of action of the active ingredient used in such a method and/or such a use.
The expression “consisting of” as used in this document means including, and limited to. what follows the term “consisting of”. The term “consisting of” thus indicates that listed elements are required or necessary, and that no other elements may be present. The term “substantially consisting of” is accordingly understood to mean that any elements defined following this expression are included, and that further elements may also be present, for example in a sample or a composition, which further elements do not change the activity or effect stated in this document for the elements in question, i.e. do not impair them or contribute to them. As an example, this term means, for a pharmaceutical composition, that it can contain carrier substances/auxiliaries when they substantially consist of one or more active ingredients. Thus, the expression “substantially consisting of” indicates that the defined elements are necessary or required, but that further elements are optional and may or may not be present, depending on whether or not they are of relevance to the effect or efficacy of the defined elements.
The word “approximately”, when used herein, relates to a value that is within an acceptable error range for a given value as determined by a person of average skill in the art. This will in part depend on how the value in question has been determined or measured, i.e. on the limitations of the measurement system. “Approximately” can for example mean within a standard deviation of 1 or more, depending on the use in the field in question. The term “approximately” is also used to indicate that the amount or value can be the value given, or can be another value which is roughly the same. The term is intended to express the idea that similar values favor equivalent results or effects as disclosed in this document. In this context, “approximately” can relate to a range of up to 10% above and/or below a specific value. In some embodiments, “approximately” relates to a range of up to 5% above and/or below a specific value, such as approximately 2% above and/or below a specific value. In some embodiments, “approximately” relates to a range of up to 1% above and/or below a specific value. In some embodiments, “approximately” relates to a range of up to 0.5% above and/or below a specific value. In one embodiment, “approximately” relates to a range of up to 0.1% above and/or below a specific value.
The conjunction “and/or” between several elements, when used herein, is considered to cover both individual and combined options. If, for example, two elements are linked by “and/or”, a first option relates to the use of the first element without the second. A second option relates to the use of the second element without the first. A third option relates to the use of the first and second elements together. It is understood that any one of these options falls under the meaning of the expression, and therefore meets the conditions of the term “and/or” as used in this document.
The term “low-molecular-weight” in conjunction with a compound, for example a low-molecular-weight thrombin inhibitor, relates to a molecular mass in the range up to approximately 5000 Da. In some embodiments, the mass of a low-molecular-weight compound can be in the range up to approximately 2000 Da.
The term “prodrug” denotes a compound which is converted—for example enzymatically, mechanically and/or electromagnetically—into its active form in the body of an animal, for instance a rodent, this active form exhibiting the desired pharmacological or toxicological effect. A “prodrug” is accordingly a derivative of the active ingredient that itself is still pharmacologically/toxicologically inactive or has a lesser effect than the final active ingredient. Prodrugs are typically used to deal with requirements regarding stability, specificity, toxicity or bioavailability. A prodrug can, for example. have an advantageous solubility, tissue compatibility or release compared to the final active ingredient. For example, compared to the final active ingredient, a prodrug can bear a protective group on a functional group, which protective group is removed in vivo by solvolysis or enzymatically. As a further example, a prodrug can be converted in vivo into a final active ingredient by oxidation and/or phosphorylation or glycosylation. One or more enzymes and/or gastric acids may be involved in this. Examples of typical prodrugs include carboxylic acid derivatives such as an ester, which is obtained by reacting a parent acid compound with a suitable alcohol, for example a C1-6 alcohol, an amide, which is obtained by reacting a parent acid compound with a suitable amine, for example a C1-6 amine, or an acylated basic group, for example a C1-6 acylamine, which is obtained by reacting a base-containing parent compound with a carboxylic acid compound.
The term “administering” or “administration”, when used herein, relates to any manner of transferring, supplying, introducing or transporting material such as a compound, for example a pharmaceutical compound, or another reagent such as an antigen, into or to a subject. Administration forms include for example oral administration, topical (local) contact, intravenous, intraperitoneal, intramuscular, intranasal and subcutaneous administration. In the applications and methods described herein, the administration to rodents is typically oral. Administration “in combination with” one or more further substances, for instance one or more pharmaceutical active ingredients, covers simultaneous and sequential administration, in any order. When laying bait as administration, the social behavior of rodents is taken into account insofar as the rodents are left to choose the time and order of ingestion within the group.
Singular forms such as “an”, “a” or “the” include the plural form when used in this document. Thus, for example, reference to “a cell” denotes both an individual cell and also a plurality of cells. In some cases, the expression “one or more” is explicitly used in order to indicate, in the case in question, that the singular form also includes the plural form. Such explicit references do not restrict the general meaning of the singular form. Unless otherwise indicated, the term “at least”, when preceding a sequence of elements, is understood accordingly to mean that it relates to each of these elements. The terms “at least one” or “at least one of” include for example one, two, three, four or more elements.
The expression “at least substantially consisting of”, when used herein, is considered to cover the terms “substantially consisting of” and “consisting of”. The term “at least substantially consisting of” thus indicates that, in some embodiments, listed elements are required or necessary, and that no other elements may be present. Thus, the term “at least substantially consisting of” also indicates that, in some embodiments, listed elements are required or necessary, but that further elements are optional and may or may not be present, depending on whether or not they are of relevance to the effect or efficacy of the defined elements. It is furthermore understood that minor deviations above or below a range stated herein can be used to achieve substantially the same result as a value that lies within that range. Unless otherwise indicated, the disclosure of a range is also provided as a continuous range, including all individual values that lie between the minimum and maximum values.
The formulae described in the context of the present invention should therefore be understood such that it can also be provided that the described substances can be present in the composition as prodrug, salt or hydrate.
The invention proposes a composition for controlling pest rodents, having:
In the context of the present invention, a clotting factor inhibitor means a substance that can inhibit blood clotting factors. In the context of the present invention, blood clotting factors are substances involved in functioning blood clotting. In the context of the present invention, inhibition means restricting the function of the corresponding substance, the term being used independently of the mechanism of action of the inhibitor. In the context of the present invention, an inhibitor can therefore for example be a true inhibitor or also an antagonist. In the context of the present invention, direct clotting factor inhibitors are clotting factor inhibitors which directly inhibit the clotting factors and which, in comparison to indirect clotting factor inhibitors such as vitamin K antagonists, do not require cofactors or for example only inhibit the synthesis of the clotting factors.
In the context of the present invention, a P-glycoprotein inhibitor means a substance that restricts the function of P-glycoprotein. The term P-glycoprotein means, in a known way, a specific membrane protein which is a primary efflux pump which can transport its substrate out of the cell membrane and into the extracellular space. P-glycoprotein inhibitors are also referred to as multidrug resistance protein (MDRP) or MDR1, breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), or ATP-binding cassette (ABC) superfamily.
It was possible to demonstrate that pest rodents could be killed by the above-described composition. In particular, it was possible to demonstrate that, by combining at least one clotting factor inhibitor, at a dosage which causes absolutely no bleeding in rats when administered acutely or chronically, with at least one P-glycoprotein inhibitor which on its own has no hemorrhagic effect whatsoever, it is possible to increase the effect of the abovementioned clotting factor inhibitor such that, even at a comparatively low consumption of the composition by a pest rodent, a clotting cascade can be inhibited in such a way as to induce, after a latency period, the death of the pest rodent by spontaneous bleeding.
Advantageously, it was possible to demonstrate that the efficacy of the composition according to the invention is effective even in rat strains which potentially have resistance to vitamin K antagonists.
Without being bound by a theory, it was possible to demonstrate that the direct clotting factor inhibitors are all subject to a ceiling effect, which is why even with excessive dosing when consumed orally, only limited concentrations can be reached in the blood which are insufficient to cause spontaneous bleeding. The combination with at least one Pgp inhibitor makes it possible to suppress this ceiling effect. In addition, the Pgp inhibitor makes it possible for the direct clotting factor inhibitors used to cross the blood-brain barrier and thus to also become active in the brain. This makes it possible to also cause spontaneous bleeding on the brain in a delayed manner, thereby achieving particularly rapid death of the pest rodent without any manifestations of poisoning appearing beforehand. Symptoms of poisoning or the death of a rat shortly after a rat has eaten bait can cause a rat strain to completely avoid this bait and therefore escape extermination. Furthermore, some Pgp inhibitors are also inhibitors of the various cytochrome oxidases. Cytochrome oxidases are responsible for degrading some drugs in the liver. Blocking cytochrome P450 (CYP) monooxygenase prolongs degradation and thus the half life of the dependent drugs. As a result, it is also possible to achieve more rapid accumulation of the constituents of the composition when the composition is ingested multiple times, and therefore a lethal dose can be achieved even with low repeated ingestion. When selecting a Pgp inhibitor with CYP inhibition, the degradation of the substance(s) is accordingly also inhibited, as a result of which the level increases further.
The fact that the composition has the at least one direct clotting factor inhibitor and the at least one Pgp inhibitor makes it possible to achieve a good rodenticide effect at a low dosage of the clotting factor inhibitor.
The above-described composition further makes it possible to achieve better environmental compatibility. This can advantageously be achieved because the efficacy of the composition is based on the combination of the direct clotting factor inhibitor with the at least one Pgp inhibitor. The concentration of the direct clotting factor inhibitor can therefore be kept low enough that a lethal effect can only be achieved by combination with the Pgp inhibitor. Because each of the at least two substances are metabolized very differently and also excreted differently, the composition of the active substances administered together changes by the concentration of each of the individual substances changing such that the toxic effect is rapidly lost, and even the excreta from such an animal no longer contain any toxic composition. Because the composition is so effective, the dose of the composition can also be selected such that it only begins after being ingested multiple times. Thus, the effect in animals which accidentally consume the bait in question can be reduced. Furthermore, the substances used are metabolized differently in the target animal, and therefore toxicity is rapidly lost for predators and scavengers, and also the excreta from the target animals no longer contain an active combination of the constituents of the composition. As a result, the composition may be safer to handle and have less of an environmental impact due to an overall lower dose. In particular, the poison effect for predators of the poisoned pest rodents is already weakened by metabolism by the pest rodent, because the pest rodent stays alive for a while after ingestion. Thus, carcasses of poisoned pest rodents also have a weakened poison effect for scavengers. Remaining poison can also be rapidly further degraded by the predators or scavengers, rapidly further reducing toxicity for said predators and scavengers. Furthermore, a lethal effect for predators and scavengers can only occur if they simultaneously eat several poisoned animals in succession on successive days. In particular, this reduces cross-toxicity for other animals.
As a result, therefore, the composition according to the invention makes it possible to effectively control pest rodents and at the same time ensure comparatively lower cross-toxicity for other animals and a comparatively very low impact on the environment.
Preferably, it can be provided that the clotting factor inhibitor is selected from the group consisting of factor Xa inhibitors and factor IIa inhibitors.
This makes it possible to achieve a particularly efficient composition. Without being bound to a theory, it is assumed that factor Xa inhibitors and factor IIa inhibitors are particularly efficient because their efficacy can be particularly advantageously influenced by the Pgp inhibitor and because they both inhibit each of the end sections of the intrinsic and also the extrinsic clotting cascade.
It can preferably be provided that the composition has at least one factor Xa inhibitor as clotting factor inhibitor, wherein the at least one factor Xa inhibitor is preferably selected from the group consisting of the following listed factor Xa inhibitors i)-ix).
It was possible to demonstrate that these factor Xa inhibitors are particularly well suited to the composition because they can be particularly advantageously influenced by the Pgp inhibitor and are well suited for oral consumption.
In a preferred configuration, it can be provided that the factor Xa inhibitor is selected from
