Abstract

The use of chitosan in combination with a first polysaccharide selected from heparin, heparan sulphate and dextran sulphate for the manufacture of an agent that accelerates, stimulates and/or promotes healing of dermal wounds, said polysaccharide, optionally, being immobilized to the chitosan; and a process for the treatment of dermal wounds.

Description

WOUND HEALING AGENT
The present invention relates to new agents to accelerate, stimulate or promote the healing of dermal wounds. The invention also includes a process for the treatment of dermal wounds.
With regard to wound ointments and similar agents for the treatment of dermal wounds, i.e. disorders in the form of wounds in the epidermis arising through accident, surgical incision or without exterior influence, for example wounds in connection with acne, so called chaps or the like, the market is flnoded by products of different kiirds. Ti~ese products are characterized by containing as active constituents active substances of different kinds, for example antibiotics, anti-inflammatory etc. whose action primarily is not directed to stimulate healing but instead are directed to act as desinfectants or in some other manner perform a cleaning action. The components contained are therefore often of such a character that they are not biodegradable to a desired degree, the storage stability also leaving something to be desired. Therefore, for the purpose of improving storage stability known products for dermal treatment often contain one or several excipients to prevent or delay decomposition, and among such excipients, there may be mentioned sodium disulfide, dithiotreitol and others.
The present invention is directed towards the provision of agents which accelerate, stimulate or promote healing of dermal wounds.
The present invention is also directed towards the provision of such an agent, in whose use no inflammatory response will arise.
The present invention further is directed towards the provision of agents which are bioacceptable and biodegradable without giving raise to deleterious decomposition products.
In accordance wi~lh one aspect of the present invention,~there is provided a new use of chitosan in combination with a first polysaccharide selected from heparin, heparan sulphate and dextran sulphate for the manufacture of an agent that accelerates, stimulates and/or promotes healing of dermal wounds.
In the present context the expression "dermal wound" is intended to cover any disorder in association with dermis in the form of regular wounds arising through accident, surgical incision or in another manner by exterior influence, or wounds which have arisen without exterior influence, such as acne, so called chaps or other fissures in the dermis.
The first polysaccharide used can be present in the agent in admixture with a chitosan and possible other ingredients, but can also be immobilized to the chitosan in three different ways. Immobilization can thus take place by ionic bond, by covalent bond or by mechanical inclusion in the chitosan in connection with its precipitation from a solution.
A process for the covalent binding of a relevant polysaccharide to a substrate carrying amino groups, which substrate can be constituted by chitosan is described in US patent 4,613,665.
As a polysaccharide it is particularly preferred to use heparin or heparan sulphate, both of which are commercially available on the market from several manufacturers. Also partially hydrolyzed forms of the polysaccha-WO 96102260 3 219 4 9 7 6 p~.~g95100875 rides can, of course, also be used provided that the bio-logical activity is maintained.

The agent for healing of dermal wounds involved in " the present invention can be presented in different phy-sical forms,,for example as powders, ointments, pastes, gels, suspensions or solutions. The form used is, of course, adapted to the dermal disorder to be treated. For certain types of wound treatment the treatment agent according to the inventin may also be presented in the form of thin films or membranes.

One of the main components in the subject treatment agent for dermal wounds is thus chitosan which is a linear 1,9-bound polysaccharide built up from ~i-D-glucose amine entities. The chitosan is manufactured by N-deace-tylation of chitin, a polymer forming the shell of inter alia insects and crayfish. Commercial chitin is recovered from crab and shrimp shell which are waste products from the fishing industry. By controlling the alkali treatment of chitins it-is possible to manufacture chitosans of varying degrees of N-acetylation. When treating chitin with alkali, usually sodium hydroxide, N-deacetylation thus takes place, i.e. acetamido groups are converted to amino groups to form chitosan.

The physical properties of chitosan affecting its utility depend on the degree of N-acetylation, molecular weight and homogeneity. The chitosan is biodegradable, both by chitinas from the digestive system and by lyso-zyme in body fluids.

It is preferred in connection with the use of the present invention that the chitosan has a degree of N-acetylation of at most about 90% and preferably at most about 50%. It is particularly preferred that the degree of N-acetylation is less than about 25%.

~fihe:two main components of the wound treatment agent, the chitosan and the first polysaccharide, parti-cularly heparin or heparan sulphate, are suitably used in combination with a conventional carrier or excipient of an acceptable character. Quite-generally it is preferred that the matrix is an aqueous matrix, the carrier or the excipient containing a viscosity increasing second poly-saccharide, which can be selected from hemicelluloses, for example arabino xylanes and glukomannanes, plant gums, for example guar gum, locust bean gum, celluloses and derivatives thereof, far example methyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose, hydroxi ethyl cellulose, carboxi methyl cellulose, starch and starch derivatives, for examgle hydroxi ethyl starch or crosslinked starch, microbial polysaccharides, for example xanthan gum, curdlan, pullulan, dextran. Also algi polysaccharides, for example agar, carrageenans, alginic acid, can be used as a con-stituent in the carrier or excipient.
15- A preferred second polysaccharide is a cellulose derivative, for example methyl cellulose.
It is preferred that said first polysaccharide is heparin or heparan sulphate. It is furthermore preferred that said first polysaccharide is present in the composi-tion in an amount of at least about 2% by weight based on the combined amount of polysaccharide and chitosan in the composition. It is particularly preferred that said amount is at least about 4% by weight and preferably at least about 6% by weight. The upper limit as to said amount is not particularly critical, but for economic reasons it is preferred to use no more than about 10% by weight of said first polysaccharide, particularly since higher amounts thereof do not increase the degree of re-epithelialisation. -The present invention also provides a process for the acceleration, stimulation or promotion of healing in connection with the treatment of dermal wounds. This pro-cess means that at the location there is topically app-lied an agent comprising chitosan in combination with a i first polysaccharide selected from heparin, heparan sulphate and dextran sulphate.

« 'O 9G1022G0 ~ PCT/SE95100875 Said first polysGcchar~de in connection ~~i~h such orccess is preierabl~~ iieDarin or heparan sulphate. The agent is suitably ~px~lied in the form of a powder, an ointment, a paste, a gel, a suspension, a solution or a film.
~xamnles of preferred e::~bodi:~ents The present inve~nticn will in the follcwing be illustrated in connec~tien with non-limiting examples. In _=aid examples parts ~:nd percentages refer to weight if not otherwise stated. This illustration is made in asso-ciation with the app~:rded drawings, wherein r figure 1 is a d:~aaram si~.owing ti-~e cegree of i-~ealing as a function of differenct substances and products used y5 in the experiments; and Figure 2 is a diagram on the degree of re-epithelia-lisation as a function of the percentage of heparin used in heparinized chitosan membranes.
~XP.MPLE 1 Cou~lina of heparin to crosslinked starch Microsnheres of crosslinkedwst:arch (~ldexomer,.
Perstorp~ are subjected to periodate oxidation. 25 g eldexomer is slurried in 1 Z of water. 2.5 g sodiu.-a periodate are ~cded and the reaction mixture is allowed to stand under shaking over night. The gel-.formed mate-rial is filtered of=' and washed with water.
5 g of the periodate oxidated gel is transferred to 500 rU; chitosan solution (0.25 w/v of 85% degree of ceacetylation) together with 200 mg sodium cyanoboro hydride. Under shaking the solution is allowed to stand over night at room temperature. The gel is then washed with water and an indicaticn~test with regard to amino groups is carried out.
250 mg of nitrite degraded heparin is dissolved in 500 mL distilled wal:er together with 4.4 g sodium chlo-ride. The pH is adjusted to 3,9:,using dilute hydrochloric ~ Tr;~.de-mark ii'O 96I022G0 acid, and 10 ;;.o of scdii:.-~ cyanoboror i-sydride are added.
The starch cel prepared according to the above is added to the heparin soluticn. Incubation under shaking takes place over night, the gel being then washed with water.
'' 2 EXPS:P~:.
:enarinized chitosan pearls soluti cn (2% w/v) ~of chitosan of 84% degree of ceacetylation (Fronova Biopelymers, Seacure C1 313) is pusmped dropwise through a capillary (inner diameter 0.8 dcwn into a sodiun phosphate buffer, 0.1 M, pH 7, 250 .~. Gel pearls of chitesan having a diameter of 1.2 .mzn are formed.
Heparin (Pi g :auc~osa, iCabivitrum) is added to the buffer soluticn to a concentration of about 1 mg/mL, the heparin being icnbound to the chitosan pearls. =fter fil-tration cn a glass filter funnel and drying the diameter of the pearls is reduced to about 0.8- mm. The pearls ob-tained are then pressed and used as a paste in dermal eppl iCatlOnS.

Chitosan film with he~carinized surface 2 g chitosan having a degree of deacetylatier of 84%
are dissolved in 200 ~z, sterile filtered distilled water.
The films are preaare~3 by transferring the chitosan solu tion obtained to petridishes of 54 cm' with 20 r1h chito-san solution in each dish. Evaporation and drying at 70°C
for 16 h results in the formation of a film having an approximate thickness of 0.1 mm.
1 g heparin (Pig mucosa, Kabivitrum) is dissolved in 100 .~L . sterile filter=d phosphate buffer, phi 6. 9 . 20 mL
of the'soluticn cbtai~~ed are added to each ~etridish con-taining the' chitosan~:~ilm prepared. The dish is subjected to shaking over night. This neutralizes the film a~ the same time as heparin is ionbound to its surface. Next day ~ Trademark WO 96102260 7 219 4 9 7 b p~/gg95100875 the films are washed with sterile filtered distilled water and allowed to dry at room-temperature.
' EXAMPLE 4 Preparation of ointment Ah ointment is prepared containing the following constituents:
0.5% methyl cellulose 1% chitosan (Seacure C1 211, 57% degree deacetylation) 0.2% heparin (Pig mucosa, Kabivitrum) 2% glycerol, plus water, adjustment of pH to 5.6.
The ointment is prepared by admixing 100 mL chitosan (2% w/v) in a turnmixer with 50 mL methyl cellulose (1%
- w/v). 400 mg heparin are dissolved in 50 mL distilled water and this solution is then admixed into the turn-mixer with the solution of chitosan and methyl cellulose.
Finally, 4 mL of glycerol are added under continued stirring.
The ointment obtained has a highly viscous consis-tency and is found to be very effective for the treatment of so called juvenile acne.

Preparation of wound powder A wound powder is prepared by mixing chitosan powder (Seacure C1 210, 82% degree of deacetylation, Pronova Biopolymer) heparin (Pig mucosa, Kabivitrum) and micro-spheres of crosslinked starch (Eldexomer, Perstorp) in the proportions 9:1:90. The powder obtained can be directly applied to dermal wounds and then preferably coated with a dressing or adhesive.

Preparation of chitosan film 2 g of hydrochloride salt of chitosan (Seacure Cl 313, 84% degree of deacetylation, Pronova Biopolymer) are dissolved in 200 mL of sterile filtered distilled water.
The films are prepared in petridishes of 54 cmz, 20 mL of the chitosan solution prepared being added to each dish, and evaporation and drying then takes place at 70°C for 16 h. The films obtained are then subjected to varying treatment. r Neutralization of film using sodium hydroxide To each petridish containing the film prepared according to Example 6 there are added 20 mL sterile filtered 1 M NaOH. After about 3 h the films are rinsed with sterile filtered distilled water to neutral pH. The films are dried at room temperature and then packed into sterile bags. Autoclavation for 30 min takes place at 125°C for sterilization.

Neutralization of film in phosphate buffer To each petridish containing film prepared according to Example 6 there are added 20 mL sterile filtered phos-phate buffer 0.2 M, pH 6.4. After about 3 h the films are rinsed with sterile filtered distilled water and are then allowed to dry at room temperature. They are then packed in sterile bags and autoclaved in accordance with Example 7.

Preparation of alternative chitosan film Example 6 is repeated but using chitosan having 57~
degree of.deacetylation (Seacure C1 211, Pronova Biopolymer). The films obtained are then neutralized with NaOH in accordance with Example 7.

9 7 6 P~'/SE95/00875 Heparinization of chitosan film 1 g of heparin {Pig mucosa, Kabivitrum) is dissolved in 100 mL sterile filtered phosphate buffer 0.2 M, pH

6.4. 20-mL of the solution obtained are then added to each petridish containing chitosan film prepared in accordance with Example 6. The petridishes are subjected to slow shaking over night, the films being neutralized at the same time as heparin is ionbound to the surface of the films.

The next day the films are washed with sterile fil-tered distilled water and are then allowed to dry at room temperature. The films are packed in sterile bags with the heparinized surface facing upwardly and are then autoclaved for 30 min at 125C for sterilization.

Test in vitro of wound healing Sterile humane skin is obtained from routine breast operations for the reduction of breast size. Under ste-rile conditions pieces having a diameter of 6 mm are cut with a biopsy punch. In the centre of each piece there is provided on the epidermal side a non-through wound with a 3 mm biopsy punch, and the pieces are then transferred to plates with 24 wells. Each wound is then covered with the test substance, in the present case fetal calf serum, 10~, 2~ and the products from Example 7-20 above. In all cases antibiotics are added (penicillin 50 U/mL and streptomycin 50 ug/mL). The medium is replaced every other day. After 7 days the skin pieces are fixed in 1~

neutral buffered formaldehyde, dehydrated via an ethanol-xylene series and embedded in paraffin. Sections, 10-20 dun thickness, are tinted with the use of-the hematoxy-line-eosine-technique and reepithelialization is deter-mined by light microscopy. Only total epithelialization of the wound is considered as a positive result.

On the appended drawing there is presented the re-sult of the experiments made. In the diagram the degree of healing is recorded on the vertical axis, whereas the horisontal axis reflects the different substances and products supplied.
As is clear from the diagram of the figure the addi-tion of 10% fetal calf serum results in complete healing after 7 days, whereas 2% fetal calf serum does not give any observable healing. Furthermore, the diagram shows that chitosan film of varying degree of deacetylation and with or Without neutralization results in a certain ef-fect by increased degree of deacetylation. Finally, the diagram through the pile furthest to the right shows that the combination of chitosan-heparin results in a healing effect largely corresponding to that obtained with 10%
fetal calf serum. This effect is totally surprising and constitutes a substantial step forward within the tech-niques concerning healing of dermal wounds, which step forward is based on the combination of chitosan-heparin.

Preparation of chitosan-heparin films The hydrochloric salt of chitosan (5 g, 16% degree of acetylation, Pronova) is dissolved in a 2% acetic acid solution (aq. 0.5L). The solution is autoclaved at 125°C
for 30 min. After cooling, 20 mL of the solution is added to a petridish (54 cmz) and allowed to evaporate in an oven at 70°C for 16 h. The film is neutralized with M
NaOH for 3 h at room temperature and then rinsed with distilled water (3x100 mL) for 3 h each time. The result-ing film is dried in an oven for 2 h at 70°C. The film is then transferred to a petridish (54 cm2) and 30 mL of a sterile solution of native heparin (1% w/v, Pig mucosa, Kabivitrum) in 0.2 M phosphate buffer (pH 6.4) is added.
The films are kept at room temperature over night and then rinsed with sterile water and dried in a LAF bench.
Three more films are prepared as described above with the R'O 96102260 11 219 4 9 ~ 6 P~~E95/00875 modification that they are treated with 0.5%, 0.1%, 0.01%
and 0.00% solutions of heparin, respectively. The hepari-nized films are subjected to elemental analysis and con-' tained 1.2%, 0.9%, 1.3%, 0.23% and 0.007% sulfur, respectively. These values correspond to a heparin con tent of 9.2%, 7.7%, 10.8%, 1.9% and 0%, respectively.

Preparation of in vitro wounds Sterile human skin is obtained from mastectomy specimens. In each experiment only skin from a single donor is used. Under sterile conditions, pieces with a diamter of 6 mm are cut with a biopsy punch (Stiefel Laboratories, UK). In the centre of each, on the epider-mal side, a partial thickness wound is made with a 3 mm biopsy punch and subsequently pieces are transferred to 12-well plates (Costar) with the epidermal side up. Each well is filled with Dulbeccos Modified Eagles Medium (DMEM) to the epidermal level keeping the wound in the gas/liquid interface. Fetal calf serum, 2% (FCS) and antibiotics (penicillin 50 pg/mL and streptomycin 50 pq/mL) are added to all samples. The biopsies are divided into five groups with ten biopsies in each group. Every wound in each group is covered with a heparinized membra-ne, prepared as described in Example 8 above. The media are changed every day. After 7 days the pieces are fixed in 4% neutral buffered formaldehyde, dehydrated through an ethanol-xylene series and embedded in paraffin. Cross sections, 10-20 mm in thickness are stained with haema-toxylin and eosin and the degree of re-epithelialization is assessed by light microscopy. Only wounds totally covered with keratinocytes are regarded as healed. As is evident from Fig. 2 films with a heparin content below about 2% do not stimulate cellproliferation in this experiment.
