Abstract

Abstract:

Collagen implant containing active ingredient(s) for im-plantation in bones or soft tissues, whereby the implant is designed in sheet or in rod form, and a process for preparation thereof.

Description

Collagen Implant Containing Active Ingredient(s) for Implantation in Bones or Soft Tissues and Process for its Manufacture The invention concerns an implant resorbable in the body and 5 containing active ingredients, for implantation in bones and soft tissues. It especially relates to a collagen implant ln the form of a sheet containing active ingredient(s), which optionally c~n be rolled into a rod and which after implan-tation in the bone or tissue gradually releases the ingre-10 dient(s).

It is known that collagen can be used as material which isbioresorbable in the body, for filling defects in bones or in soft tissues.

The use of polyhydroxy acetic acid ester for the manufacture 15 of antibiotic-containing resorbable surgical materials, e.g.
tubes, is known from DE-PS 12 93 396. DE-OS 20 51 ~ des-cribes a combination of an active ingredient with a polylac-tide or of a copolymer of lactide and glycolide units.

The above-mentioned materials are synthetic polymers or co-20 polymers which are decomposed in the body. Such polymers and copolymers have increasingly gained in significance because as fully synthetic products they have readilly re-producible properties and can be prepared in high purity.

;.... .

Materials of the above-mentioned polymers and copolymers are also used as synthetic resorbable suture materials.

For many years collagen has been known as a resorbable ma-terial and has been used hemostatically, especially during 5 and a~ter surgical operations or to fill body cavities or to cover wounds. There have always been certain problems con-cerning the degree of purity of collagen, since it is ex-tracted from natural products, and is difficult to produce in high purity. However, collagen can be made with a high 10 degree of purity, so that complications can be avoided when using it for surgical purposes.

DE-OS 28 43 963 describes a shaped mass resorbable in the body, on the basis of collagen. This shaped mass contains, in addition to denatured collagen, a bioresorbable binding 15 agent as well as optionally an active ingredient. The above-mentioned polymers and copolymers o-F glvcolic acid or of lac-tide and glycolide are especially s~itable as the bioresor-bable binding agents.

It is the object of this invention to provide a bioresorbable 20 implant containing an active ingredient for im~lantation in bones or soft tissues.

This object has been attained by providing a very ~ure nati-`
ve collagen containing an acti~e ingredient, and having a factor nitrogen:hydroxyproline~ 3 to 5 in the form of a sheet 25 or rod, the rod beinq made by rolling the collagen sheet.
(By the term "native collagen" is ment collagen which is purified but not changed in its structure.) -The rod-shaped collaaen product has about the same thickness as a pencil. It can be conveniently made by adding a solu-30 tion of the active ingredient to a collagen solution; after ., drying, e.g. with hot air or by lyo~hilization, the colla-gen is first prepared in sheet Eorm ~as a so-called fascia).
Also the reverse route, depending on the stability of the active ingredient, can be undertaken, by first preparing the collagen fascia and then charginy it with the active ingredient. This can be done e.g. by spraying an aqueous so-lution of an active ingredient, e.g. an antibiotic in the iorm of a salt on the collagen sheet and allowing it to dry there. Equally it is possible to apply the antibio-tic or another pharmacologically e~fective compound, bypainting, rolling, dipping or sprinkling with an active in-gredient in powder form or in a similar manner. The so ob-tained collagen sheet charged with the acti~e ingredient can then be rolled into a rod-shaped product of about pencil thickness. In this form it can be cut into anv desired length depending on the desired dose and can be packed to remain sterile until used.
Especially suitable active ingredients in combination with collagen are aminoglycoside antibiotics, such as gentamycin. In salt form, e.g. as sulfate, gentamycin is water-soluble and can be added to the collagen in a wide ran~e from about 1 to about 100 mg/cm2 fascia or it can ~e sprayed on. The collagen sheet (collagen fascia) containing the gentamycin can then be rolled and dried and thereafter it maintains its rod-shape.

Other active ingredients such as sulfonamides, antise~tics, or corticosteroids can be added instead of or in addition to the antibiotic.

The collagen used has a purity expressed by the factor nit-rogen:hydroxyproline ~ 3 to 5. Such a collagen can be pre-pared in the manner described in the example.

Using the rod-sha~ed collagen charaed with an active in-7, ~

gredient of the invention is of special a~vantaye in -tha-t the active lngredlent adheres very well to the collagen and optionally can even be bonded to it. To the extent that the collagen decomposes over a period of time, the active ingredient is released~ so tha-t there is a sustained re-lease A further advantage is that the carrier matrix collagen serves as a guide for proliferating con-nective tissue cells and thus promotes the healing of the wound in a known manner.

~xample The following highly pure native collagen is prepared as follows:

Fresh beef tendons freed from all pigment layers and res-idues of muscle were homogenised and an amount correspon-ding to 100 g dry weight was extracted with 3 liters 0.05 Mcitrate buffer (pH 3.7) for 24 hours and then dialysed~for 12 hours against 1% acetic acid. Ihe tissue, suspended in 3 liters 1% acetic acid, was incubated with constant stir-ring for 48 hours at 15C with pepsin in a ratio of collagen to pepsin of 50 : 1.

The preparation was diluted with 1% acetic acid to 5 liters and then freed from undissolved tendon fragments by centri-fugation.

The viscous collagen solution was diaIysed against alkalised tap water (p~ 8.0) and wasthen vigorously centrifuged. The residue was again dissolved in 5 liters 1% acetic acid and dialysed. This process was repeated until the factor nitro-gen:hydroxv~roline was ~ 3. After the last dialysis a 1.5%
collagen solution in 0.05% acetic acid was prepared.

'7~6 Preparation of the Collagen Implant containing Active In-gredient 10 ml of the 1.5~ collagen solution obtained as above are placed in a dish of 10 x 10 cm. 100 ma gentamycin tin the 5 form of its sulfate) were added thereto. The solution was then lyophilized in the dish to yield a sponge-like mass having the shape of the dish. This sponge was then pressed into a fascia or sheet and optionally rolled into a rod-shaped product of pencil thickness.

10 The gentamycin-containing implant ohtained in this way was sterile-packed and sterilised with ethylene oxide in known manner.

Use If the above-mentioned collagen implant containing 100 mg 15 c,tentamycin is introduced into the tibia, it is completely resorbed there within 3 weeks. During this time the genta-mvcin is released.
