Title:
POLYMERIC TOPICAL ANTISEPTIC COMPOUND AND METHOD OF USE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/040376
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Topical antiseptic nibs are disclosed that reduce microorganism loading on the skin surface preventing possible infections. The FDA currently recognizes ethanol, isopropanol and benzalkonium chloride as active ingredients but further defines the actives as chronic use drugs. The present invention describes formulations and applications of a liquid compound that forms a topical polymeric skin layer consisting of a given benzalkonium chloride concentration within the matrix, which quickly reduces all bacteria including the MERS, virus types, and kills spores including the Clostridium difficle. The "second skin" concept, is likened to the human skin cellular function of the stratum corneum, functions as a barrier to exogenous substances, which reduces any chronic flux of benzalkonium chloride into the epidermis and reducing symptoms of constant usage. The second skin polymeric application agglomerates, traps and kills bacteria. The "second skin" provides for cosmetic moisturizing, barrier effects and skin softness.

Description:
POLYMERIC TOPICAL ANTISEPTIC COMPOUND AND METHOD OF

USE

This application claims the priority benefit under 35 U.S.C. section 119 of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62/547,846 entitled "Polymeric Topical Antiseptic Compound And Method Of Use" filed on August 20, 2018; and which is in its entirety herein incorporated by reference.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention provides for novel compounded formulations that are considered topical antiseptic compositions as defined by the US Federal Drug Administration (FDA) with the listed nomenclature of "consumer antiseptic rubs" (Federal Register /Vol 81. No 243 /Wednesday, Dec 20, 2017 Food and Drug Administration 21 CRF Part 310 Safety and Effectiveness of Health Care Antiseptics: Topical Antimicrobial Drug Products for Over-The - Counter Human Use), "health care worker's antiseptic rubs" (Federal Register /Vol 82. No 243 /Wednesday, Dec 20, 2017 Food and Drug Administration 21 CRF Part 310 Safety and Effectiveness of Health Care Antiseptics: Topical Antimicrobial Drug Products for Over-The - Counter Human Use), "topical antiseptics", "surgical scrubs" and "first aid antiseptics" to include topical sanitizing wipes for bathing, pre/post surgery, barrier and general topical sanitizing of the skin.

Since the active compound in the formulations are antimicrobials by definition and prescribed in the formulations at concentrations adequate to do damage to bacterial cells or viral structures, the FDA has had concern of the effects of actives as a "chronic drug" absorbed by the skin over a six months period. To reduce the FDA concerns of over-absorption by fluxing the active into the skin, the invention uses a monomer film forming compound to polymerize on top the skin and thus maintain the active on top of the skin.

The invention provides formulations which includes the delivery of a cationic, polymeric film former which upon contacting the skin, at room and body temperature, initiates a condensation polymerization reaction with the evaporation of the carrier water. As the reaction nears completion the incorporated biocidal actives are within the matrix and affect the skin flora. The reaction provides a method to trap and hold the actives on the surface of the skin while performing the FDA requirements of an antiseptic rub by killing microorganisms. The film former eliminates chronic effects upon and within the skin through reduction of biocidal active's flux into or through the skin.

The compounded formulations also provide for the unique architectural structure of the film former and actives upon the skin as developed to provide polymerized cationic peaks connected by higher molecular weight polymeric dense throughs all in the nanometer size.

The compounded formulations also provide for a solution in which Benzalkonium halides and Chlorhexidine gluconate formulations in the market having been exposed to Burkholderia cepacia biofilms can be compromised and do not kill Burkholderia cepacia but actually grow Burkholderia cepacia in the contained fluid or wipe.

The compounded formulations can be administered in a convenient manner in foamer bottles, spray bottles, gel tubes, bath wipes, hand wipes, solid films and solid sol-gel films.

The compounded formulations are not flammable as are the active alcohols so no special storage conditions are needed.

There is a long felt need in the art for anti-microbial compositions that are used to rub into the hands and retain their activity by forming a film that retains the active. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

There is a continued need for contact protection from micro-organisms such as bacteria, virus, fungi and single cell organisms. It is evident as the infectious diseases agencies reported increases in outbreaks and incidents.

The human body has inherent immune system mechanisms to affect microorganisms but remains genetically susceptible to microorganism attack. There is the subsequent ability to transfer bacteria, virus and fungus by contact to other humans. Since microorganism are part of the skin biome and nosocomial microorganisms are found in aerosols, fomites, infected wounds and tissues, and hard surfaces, a safe, fast killing and persistent topical antiseptic treatment such as a rub or scrub or ointment is needed. With the safety concern issues of ethanol and isopropanol as a chronic drug for health care workers, the invention provides a lower concentration of biocides trapped on top of the skin as a means to continue a healthy treatment of sanitization.

The Center for Disease Control (CDC) estimates that more than two million people are affected by antibiotic-resistant infections every year in the United States, with at least 23,000 dying as a result. Hospital nosocomial infections have generated the terms methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), vancomycin resistant Enterococcus (VRE), carbapenem- resistant Enter obacteriaceae (CRE), multi-drug resistant tuberculosis (MRT TB) and Clostridium difficile (C Dif) as a listing for infections caused by bacteria which have mutated to become resistant to common antibiotics. The crisis has accelerated due to Horizontal Gene Transfer within bacterial environments to evolve and developing R genes which have become resistant to antibiotics. The term "superbugs" refers to microbes with enhanced morbidity and mortality due to multiple mutations endowing high levels of resistance to the antibiotic classes specifically recommended for their treatment. The therapeutic options for these microbes are reduced, and periods of hospital care are extended and costly. In some cases, super resistant strains have also acquired increased virulence and enhanced transmissibility.

While microorganisms are transferred by contact, hand washing and effective hand sanitization remain as a visible means to reduce the spread of microorganisms, especially antibiotic resistant microorganisms

The FDA considers antimicrobial topical antiseptics a drug and further allows the industry to produce protection under an Over the Counter Drug tentative monograph listed in 1984 under and in FDA 2016-N-0124. In 2015 and 2016, the FDA proposed final OTC Drug Monographs which defined consumer antiseptic rubs and separately the health care worker antiseptic rubs. To further clarity, FDA defines "Rubs" as typical leave on products referring to their antimicrobial properties that are not rinsed off the skin like soap and water in a hand wash. The FDA infers that the chemistry of the rubs will either stay on the stratum corneum or flux into the epidermis, dermis or microcapillaries within the skin. The chemistry is dangerous enough to be antimicrobial or bactericidal therefore killing microorganisms such as bacteria or germs, while not destructive to human tissue, cells, human DNA or general health of the user.

The FDA also contends that "the consumer antiseptic rubs are intended to provide immediate reduction of bacteria rather than a persistent benefit". The topical antiseptic compositions comprise of a FDA currently approved active compounds or bactericidal compounds such as Benzalkonium chloride, ethanol and isopropanol as listed in the 21CFR part 310.

The present invention provides for compositions using the active Benzalkonium chloride at concentration limits prescribed and listed in the Federal Register at 0.10-0.13% wt range. There is also a need for a non-alcohol topical rubs which kills most major pathogens in a quick and efficacious manner defined by the FDA while not acting as a chronic drug.

In US 7,754,770 Antimicrobial Compositions, Curtis teaches that a compounded formulation with 1000-1200 ppm N,N dimethyl alkylamine homologs of C 12 and C 14 as an active and foaming agents such as dihydroxypropyl PEG 15 linoleammonium chloride and stabilizers and emollients of ammonium lactate is effective against bacteria in a time kill dilution test and determined acute toxicity data in animal testing using Benzalkonium chloride as an active at 0.1%. However, at 2 g/kg of Benzalkonium chloride as applied uniformly to an area of 10% of shaven skin on all ten test animals; all test animals exhibit erythema, and edema at the application site on Study Day 1.

As stated by the FDA, "Many of the safety considerations for consumer antiseptic rubs are based on FDA's view that the use of consumer antiseptic rubs is a "chronic" use as that term is defined by the International Council on Harmonization (ICH). As defined by the ICH, a use is considered chronic if the drug will be used for a period of at least 6 months over the user's lifetime, including repeated, intermittent use. We believe that consumer antiseptic rubs are often used on a daily basis and sometimes repeatedly over the course of the day. Usages by health care workers could be seen to up to 100 applications per day.

Because of advances in technology, our ability to detect antiseptic active ingredients in body fluids such as serum and urine is greater than it was in 1994. For example, studies have shown detectable blood alcohol levels after use of alcohol containing hand rubs we believe that any consequences of this systemic exposure should be identified and assessed to support our risk-benefit analysis for consumer antiseptic use. Given the frequent repeated use of consumer antiseptic rubs, systemic exposure may occur. Although some systemic exposure data exist for all of the three consumer antiseptic rub active ingredients, data on systemic absorption after maximal use are lacking. Currently, there is also a lack of data to assess the impact of important drug use factors that can influence systemic exposure such as dose, application frequency and method, duration of exposure, product formulation, skin condition, and age."

In US 6,613,755 Peterson et al states that an 18% ethyl alcohol and trimethoxysilylpropyl dimethyloctadecyl ammonium chloride as a drug provides a hand sanitizer for the skin. No mention of the addition of other actives to disrupt the bacteria remaining on the treated skin nor be in compliance with FDA OTC Monographs.

In PCT/AU2015/050111, Bralkowski et al teach that the use of the film forming trimethoxysilypropyl dimethyl octadecyl ammonium chloride monomer from 0.1 to 1.5% wt combined with benzalkonium chloride to be an effective hand sanitizer. No mention is made to formation of a skin scaffold or second skin which is effective in encapsulating Clostridium difficle spores found on the human skin and furthermore no mention of an expanded range of the amount of trimethoxysilypropyl dimethyl octadecyl ammonium chloride monomer in excess of 1.5% wt can be used safely to further the benefits of the hand rub.

In US 2006/0193816 A Elfersey et al states that mixtures of organosilane quaternaries and quaternary ammonium chloride with hydrogen peroxide and nonyl phenol ethoxylates are suitable compositions of biocidal treatments effective against bacterial spores. However, Elfersey could not use on the skin to kill spores due to the unapproved ingredients in the quaternium mixture since only Benzalkonium chloride and Benzethonium chloride (tentatively) are approved for human skin contact. Nonyl phenol ethoxylates are endocrine disruptors.

In WO 2011/123623 A3 Higgins and Bralkowski claim methyl anthranilate and silane quaternary extend protection for 24 hours at 0.9% silane quat. The patent does not teach of ability to kill spores.

In US 2014/0011766 Al Kraft teaches of an antimicrobial composition and hand sanitizing composition which disinfects precleaned hard surfaces by killing 99.99 percent of germs, including turberculosis, MRSA, VRE and viruses. The compound contains: ethanol 50.0- 80.0 percent by weight; and a treated particle with an antimicrobial organosilane compound attached to it 0.01-5.0 percent by weight the treated particle is a powder chosen from the group consisting of Zinc oxide, silica, calcium carbonate, and talc. Kraft doesn't mention the effects of the compound on spores or molds. Nor does he teach of the use of Polyhexanide as a Pseudomonas aeruginosa biocide. Nor does his composition contain surfactants to clean surfaces.

US. Pat. Nos. 5,827,870 and 5,661, 170, to Chodosh, discloses an antimicrobial "SAB" composition that treats microbial infections. The antimicrobial composition includes a quaternary ammonium compound in an aqueous solution, Wherein the preferred quaternary ammonium compound is benzalkonium chloride (BZK). The antimicrobial composition also contains a surfactant and the keratolytic agent allantoin (SAB) surfactant, allantoin, and BZK). The composition disclosed is solely antimicrobial in nature and is ideally suited for subcutaneous, cutaneous, or mucosal membrane administration.

US 2015/0045443 Al to Weaver teaches the use of multiple quaternium compounds in water and acidified with concentrated mineral acids. Weaver does not refer to use of polymeric Polyhexanide or other polymeries to adjust the film former structure.

In US 5,902,820 Jacquess et al describes the use of Propiconazole and Dodecylamine or a dodecylamine salt for controlling the growth of microorganisms especially fungal microorganisms. Jacques does not teach the use with l-octadecanaminium-N,N-dimethyl-N-[(3- tri ethoxy silyl)propyl ] chl ori de .

It is well known that spore germination can be controlled by certain environmental and chemical stimulants such as high pressure, high temperatures and certain amine chemistries. Luo Mi et al in Chemical Insights into Dodecylamine Spore Lethal Germination state that dodecylamine may change the osmoregulatory function of the spore cortex thereby allowing dipiconlinic acid and water to transfer between the core. Luo doesn't declare that the use of other compound which support the addition of Dodecylamine provide for better microorganism control in a hand sanitizer that encapsulates spores in a polymer.

U.S. Pat. No. 6,503,952 of Modak et al discloses a triple antimicrobial composition having chlorhexidine (or a salt 2 thereof), a quaternary ammonium compound such as BZK, and a chlorinated phenol compound such as para chlorometaxylenol. Optionally alcohol may be included. This composition is stated to be antimicrobial, but it is silent with respect to reducing or controlling viruses. The prior art has disadvantages. The prior art fails to reduce, control or eliminate certain viruses especially the norovirus (the cruise ship virus) and other similar viruses.

US 8,383,164 B2 to Cueman et al teaches an alcohol-free antiviral composition that includes between about 0.1 to about 3 wt % of hydrogen peroxide, between about 0.1 to about 0.3 wt % of an benzalkonium chloride, between about 0.1 to 1 wt % of a parachlorometaxylenol, and at least about 60 wt % aqueous solvent.

US 2013/0017242 Al Richardson et al teach that a wipe can be made of a flexible absorbent substrate comprising natural material and a solution impregnated into said substrate with said solution containing an organo-functional silane-base quaternary ammonium salt at a concentration of between about 0.10 percent to 2.0 percent in water for antimicrobial protection. Richardson does not teach that cotton or most natural fibers have a problem with the organosilanes covalently bonding to the said natural fibers and becoming ineffective at controlling microorganisms on the surface that would be treated with the wipe. Peterson refers to this in US 6,613,755.

There is a need for a hand sanitizer and methods to apply the hand sanitizer that is nontoxic and does not irritate the skin after frequent, long term use and is alcohol-free.

Polymeric Compositions

In a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a carrier for the bactericidal active which comprises a water soluble liquid monomer and water soluble polymer compounds which when activated will through condensation polymerization at room temperature react to form a polymeric film skin or skin scaffold or biomimetic.

According to Zhong, "engineering skin substitutes by tissue engineering approach has relied upon the creation of three-dimensional scaffolds as extracellular matrix (ECM) analog to guide cell adhesion, growth, and differentiation to form skin-functional and structural tissue. The three-dimensional scaffolds can not only cover wound and give a physical barrier against external infection as wound dressing, but also can provide support both for dermal fibroblasts and the overlying keratinocytes for skin tissue engineering. A successful tissue scaffold should exhibit appropriate physical and mechanical characteristics and provide an appropriate surface chemistry and nano and microstmctures to facilitate cellular attachment, proliferation, and differentiation. Highlighted emerging fabrication technique is electrospinning that allows the design and fabrication of biomimetic scaffolds that offer tremendous potential applications in wound healing of skin."

The invention provides compositions containing: (i) an alkoxy silyl ammonium compound monomer; (ii) an alkoxy silyl ammonium compound polymer; (iii) a polymeric biguanide; (iv) a polymeric stabilizer such as a smectite, bentonite or filler such as hydroxyethyl cellulose; (v) a natural silk fibroin and (vi) multiple oxirane polymeric surfactants.

In some embodiments, the alkoxy silyl ammonium polymer and monomer combination film-forming agents is an alkoxy silyl quaternary ammonium film forming agent. Alkoxy silyl quaternary ammonium film forming agents are also known in the art as organosilicon quaternary ammonium film forming compounds.

In some embodiments, the alkoxy silyl ammonium film-forming agent is a compound of formula:
