Description

A NOVEL PHARMACEUTICAL PREPARATION FOR PREECLAMPSIA, ECLAMPSIA, AND TOXEMIA AND THEIR RELATED SYMPTOMS AND
RELATED DISORDERS OF PREGNANCY

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[001] The invention relates to a treatment for pregnancy induced hypertension, preeclampsia, eclampsia, toxemia and related disorders of pregnancy, and more particularly, to the use of digestive/pancreatic enzymes in the treatment of pregnancy induced hypertension, preeclampsia, eclampsia and toxemia that may occur during pregnancy.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[002] Every year thousands of women suffer from pregnancy induced hypertension. While blood pressure during pregnancy is generally lower than in the non-pregnant state, some pregnant women will develop hypertension. Hypertension during pregnancy can have a significant impact on the mother and the fetus, including, but not limited to stroke or other cardiovascular complications. It is estimated that 7 out of every 100 pregnant women will develop toxemia/eclampsia and/or pre-eclampsia of which hypertension is the main presenting symptom. Mild toxemia, also known as preeclampsia is monitored closely and usually causes few problems for the mother or child. Of note, toxemia, and eclampsia are often used interchangeably to refer to the same condition, and will be used interchangeably throughout the application.
[003] There is no known cause for toxemia. What is known is that toxemia starts to develop as the placenta begins to develop, although the condition may not be detected until the latter part of pregnancy. Most cases of toxemia happen with first pregnancies. Second and subsequent pregnancies are at lower risk, unless the woman is with a new partner. Since there is no known cause of toxemia, there is no way to determine if a woman is at risk for the condition before she gets pregnant.
[004] Preeclampsia causes hypertension and proteinuria, manifesting most often after the twentieth week of pregnancy. In the past, edema was considered a diagnostic criterion.
Recently, however, it has been eliminated as a requirement for diagnosis.
Preeclampsia causes vasospasm, a condition in which your blood vessels squeeze and then relax almost like a muscle spasm. This causes the smooth lining of the blood vessels to become damaged and rough. Once this damage occurs, the body will send out cells to repair the damage. The cells that arrive first are platelets. As platelets and other blood products try to repair the damage, they form little clots along the blood vessel wall causing the blood vessel to become even more narrow and further decreasing blood flow to the organs. The body continually makes new platelets; however, there is a limited supply of platelets in the body at any one time. Once they have become depleted, spontaneous bleeding can occur.
[005] Other cells passing by the damaged lining of the blood vessels break open, often spilling their toxic contents. These toxic waste products cause high blood pressure and even more damage to other organs. Vasospasm and the miniature blood clots cause further damage by decreasing blood flow and thus decreasing the oxygen supply to vital organs such as the brain, kidneys, and liver.
[006] The term preeclampsia refers to the disease state before a seizure. Once a woman has had a seizure with this disease, it then becomes eclampsia. Eclampsia includes hypertension and proteinuria. Preeclampsia may be classified as mild or severe. Severe preeclampsia is characterized by (1) a systolic blood pressure in a known normotensive woman greater than 140-160 mm Hg or diastolic blood pressure greater than 90-110 mm Hg on 2 occasions at least 6 hours apart in a woman on bed rest and (2) the presence of significant proteinuria.
Proteinuria concentration associated with preeclampsia are in the 300mg/24 hour urine range.
Marked proteinuria is defined as 5 g or more of protein in a 24-hour urine collection.
[007] Severe preeclampsia, at times, may be associated with oliguria, cerebral or visual disturbances, pulmonary edema or cyanosis, epigastric or right upper quadrant abdominal pain, impaired liver function, thrombocytopenia, or intrauterine growth restriction. In mild preeclampsia, hypertension and proteinuria are present, but not to these extreme levels, and the patient has no evidence of other organ dysfunction. As preeclapmsia develops into eclampsia/toxemia, oliguria and other symptoms may be present. Many of the health problems associated with eclampsia/toxemia may be very dangerous to the mother and the child, and can result in severe morbidity and potentially mortality for the mother and/or the child. Toxemia may cause liver and /or kidney damage or failure. It may cause problems with eyesight and, if left untreated for too long, may cause the maternal patient to go into seizures.
These seizures can lead to coma and even death. Often, the progression of these symptoms can not be stopped and full blown toxemia occurs, including kidney failure.
[008] The etiology of preeclampsia is still unknown. Many areas have been explored including: the examination of the renin-angiotensin system, selective hormonal examination, including epinephrine, norepinephrine, and vasopressin. Further examination has included endothelin and prostaglandins, all without conclusion or an effective treatment for preeclampsia and the potential resultant eclampsia/toxemia.
[009] Since placental delivery reverses the symptoms of preeclampsia, it suggests that the placenta may have a central role in the condition. Additionally, women with increased placental tissue for gestational age, those with hydatiform moles and/or twin or multiple pregnancies, have an increased prevalence of preeclampsia. This, therefore, leads one to consider the possibility that substances, such as human chorionic gonadotropin, which is high in a hydatiform mole, may be involved. This link between the placenta and the development of preeclampsia is key.
[010] As the fertilized ovum begins to divide, it is known as a morula at the sixteen cell stage. As the morula enters the uterine cavity from the fallopian tube, it does not implant until day seven of gestation at which time it is termed a blastocyst. The trophoblastic cells of the blastocyst erode the uterine lining to form large pockets known as lacunae.
The trophoblast now forms a divide in the cellular portion and the syncytial portion. The outside covering of the syncytial portion is known as the chorion. The chorion secretes human chorionic gonadotropin which prevents immune attack from the mother, and helps to maintain the corpus luteum of pregnancy until the maternal/fetal exchange can take place through the placenta. This is the beginning of the formation of the placenta.
[011] The cellular trophoblast, once it begins to proliferate without proper changeover to syncytial trophoblastic activity, may cause possible syncytial demise, thus reducing the amount of steroid hormone produced, and also reducing the possibility that the placenta will form correctly. The syncytial trophoblast further proliferates to form a highly specialized trophoblast, known as an extravillous trophoblast. The extravillous trophoblast bores through the endometrium, extending to the decidua and myometrium of the uterus. These extravillous trophoblasts continue their invasion into the spiral arterioles of the uterus and replace the endothelial and muscular linings of the uterine arterioles, leading to vasodilation of the uterine vasculature. This change ensures a continued low resistance system, which potentiates maternal blood flow to the intervillous space and maintains adequate perfusion of the developing fetus.
[012] The mechanism by which the cellular trophoblast is reduced in its proliferation such that the syncytial trophoblast can take over is the presence of proteolytic enzymes, especially that of chymotrypsin. These proteases produced by the mother, especially chymotrypsin, are able to restrain the proliferation of the cellular trophoblast and the overproduction of human chorionic gonadotropin. This mechanism was outlined by Ernest T. Krebs in 1949 (Medical Record, Vol. 162, No. 10, October 1949).
[013] In preeclampsia, the lack of proliferation of the syncytial trophoblasts leads to a lack of extravillous trophoblasts and an improper boring into the muscular lining of the uterine arterioles. This leads to vasospasm of the arteries of the uterine endometrium and results in ischemia, anoxia, necrosis, histamine and tyramine release. With the absence of marked vasodilation and the lumen of the vessels essentially occluded, blood flow and oxygen transfer to the fetus is diminished, leading to the maternal manifestations of preeclampsia as well as the fetal manifestations of oligohydramnios and intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR).
[014] The resultant improper placental development results in placental vascular endothelial dysfunction and a relative uteroplacental insufficiency. The vascular endothelial dysfunction results in increased permeability, hypercoagulability, and diffuse vasospasm.
[015] The loss of protein through the kidney and excretion in the urine and the alterations in the permeability of the vascular system due to the potential endothelial dysfunction results in an increase in vascular permeability. This enhanced vascular permeability ultimately permits the proteins, especially large proteins which are large molecules, to get through the capillaries and the glomerulus of the kidney. This loss of protein creates a potential need for large amounts of protein intake during pregnancy.
[016] With incomplete protein breakdown due to the increased permeability of the vascular system, and its ability to permit large molecules into the vascular system, the protein requirements of the body during pregnancy are even greater than in the non-pregnant state.
Further, with the significant loss of protein and the resultant dearth of amino acids present in the pregnant woman, the potential exists for organ dysfunction and potential organ death.
[017] The use of digestive enzymes can facilitate the presence of sufficient protein so as not to allow the body to go into a negative protein balance. This is highly desirable as well as necessary due to the need for proteases such that the body can facilitate formation of the placenta as well as replacement proteins which are lost by the body during the pregnancy.
[018] In view of such findings, there is need for a method of treating those with preeclampsia such that the development of eclampsia/toxemia does not occur in pregnant women. The present invention is directed to therapeutic agents for the treatment of toxemia, preeclampsia and eclampsia and the method for preparing those agents. Further, the present invention is directed to the reduction of the formation of hydatiform moles (molar pregnancies).
[019] More specifically, the present invention relates to stable pharmaceutical preparations containing, but not limited to, digestive/pancreatic enzymes, including, but not limited to, amylases, proteases, cellulase, papaya, papain, bromelain, lipases, chymotrypsin and hydrolases. This combination is made by, but not limited to: direct compression, microencapsulation, lipid encapsulation, wet granulation or other methods including the use of Prosolv , microencapsulation, lipid encapsulation technology, or other suitable technology. This technology can include the use of rapid dissolution (rapid dissolve), time release or other delivery methods including oral, injection, patch or other method. Further, the delivery of the enzymes can be in the form of a tablet, sprinkles, sachet, capsules, caplets or other compressed tablet delivery, or other oral delivery method.
[020] Further, the invention is directed toward the use of a biomarker, the presence of chymotrypsin in the maternal GI tract to determine the likelihood of developing preeclampsia, pregnancy induced hypertension, and eclampsia/toxemia.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[021] It is a goal of the present invention to provide a therapeutic agent for the treatment of pregnancy induced hypertension, toxemia, preeclampsia and eclampsia and provide a method for preparing those agents.
[022] Another goal of the present invention is to formulate stable pharmaceutical preparations containing, but not limited to, digestive/pancreatic enzymes including, but not limited to, amylases, proteases, cellulase, papaya, papain, bromelain, lipases, chymotrypsin;
and hydrolases.
[023] Yet another goal of the present invention is to make a combination of digestive/pancreatic enzymes is made by but not limited to: direct compression, microencapsulation, lipid encapsulation, wet granulation or other methods including the use of Prosolv , and other known excipients and additives to accomplish microencapsulation, lipid encapsulation, direct compression, wet or dry granulation or other suitable technology.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
[031] Since placental delivery reverses the symptoms of preeclampsia, it suggests that the placenta has a central role in the condition. Additionally, women with increased placental tissue for gestational age, or those with hydatiform moles and twin pregnancies, have an increased prevalence of preeclampsia. This leads one to consider the possibility that substances, such as human chorionic gonadotropin, which is present in an increased amount in a hydatiform mole, may be involved. This link between formation of the placenta and the development of preeclampsia is key.
[032] The formation of the syncytial trophoblast, and its secretion of steroid hormones keeps the levels of human chorionic gonadotropin low, and thereby reduces the likelihood of developing preeclampsia. The syncytial trophoblast further proliferates to form a highly specialized trophoblast, known as an extravillous trophoblast. The extravillous trophoblast bores through the endometrium, extending to the decidua and myometrium. These extravillous trophoblasts continue their invasion into the spiral arterioles and replace the endothelial and muscular linings of the uterine arterioles, leading to vasodilation of the uterine vasculature. This change ensures a continued low resistance system, which potentiates maternal blood flow to the intervillous space and maintains adequate perfusion of the developing fetus.
[033] The mechanism by which the cellular trophoblast is reduced in its proliferation so that the syncytial trophoblast may take over is the presence of proteolytic enzymes, especially that of chymotrypsin. The maternal proteases, especially that of chymotrypsin, are able to restrain the proliferation of the cellular trophoblast and the overproduction of human chorionic gonadotropin.
[034] In one embodiment, a stable preparation of digestive/pancreatic enzymes is formed into a dosage formulation containing a therapeutically effective amount of a protease, an amylase, and/or a lipase. The formulation may include additional enzymes, such as pancreatin, chymotrypsin, trypsin, papain and/or papaya. Other combinations of digestive enzymes may also be used. These enzymes can be in the form of animal or plant derivatives, natural or synthetic.
[035] The following outlines a formulary for digestive/pancreatic enzymes for preecl amp sia/toxemia:

Amylase 10,000-60,000 U.S.P
Protease 10,000-70,000 U.S.P
Lipase 4,000-30,000 U.S.P
Pancreatin 2,000-6,000 U.S.P
Chymotrypsin 2-5 mg Trypsin 60-100 mg Papain 3,000-10,000 USP units/mg Papaya 30-60 mg [036] The dosage formulation may be administered by an oral preparation including, but not limited to, an encapsulated tablet, mini-tabs, microcapsule, mini-capsule, time released capsule, sprinkle or other methodology. In one embodiment, the oral preparation is encapsulated using Prosolv technology. Alternatively, the oral preparation may be encapsulated using enteric coating, lipid encapsulation, direct compression, dry granulation, wet granulation, and/or a combination of these methods.
[037] In a study conducted by the inventor, six women diagnosed with preeclampsia in weeks 28-34 of pregnancy were examined. Each was administered pancreatic enzymes, including lipases, amylases and proteases, within two days of their diagnosis of preeclampsia for the duration of their pregnancy, while being monitored by their obstetricians. The results of the study are found in Figure 1, which illustrates the changes in the womens' blood pressure, both diastolic and systolic, urine protein level, and fecal chymotrypsin levels.
[038] As seen in Figure 2, it is clear from the results that the blood pressures of the pregnant women were reduced significantly over the 30 days of administration of the pancreatic enzymes. In every case, their blood pressures returned to normal, which is usually 120/80. In some cases, the reversion to a normal blood pressure reading occurred within 15 days.
[039] Further, the levels of protein in their urine also reverted to normal within 30-35 days as seen in Figure 3. Proteinuria is diagnosed by examining the urine through a simple urinalysis. Normal urine has very small amounts of protein present. Larger amounts are usually reported as 1+ to 4+.
[040] In another study, shown in Figure 4, seventeen women that were pregnant for the first time (primipara) that were in their first trimester were administered a fecal chymotrypsin test every other week from week 12 to week 40 of their pregnancy. One woman, subject 6, developed preeclamptic symptoms, and her fecal chymotrypsin test became abnormal one week prior to the diagnosis of preeclampsia.
[041] Fecal chymotrypsin is a sensitive, specific measure of proteolytic activity. Normal levels of chymotrypsin are considered be greater than 8.4 U/gram. Decreased values (less than 4.2 U/gram) suggest diminished pancreatic output (pancreatic insufficiency), hypoacidity of the stomach or cystic fibrosis. Elevated chymotrypsin values suggest rapid transit time, or less likely, a large output of chymotrypsin from the pancreas.
[042] For the fecal chymotrypsin test, a stool sample was collected from each of the subjects. Each stool sample was analyzed using an enzymatic photo spectrometry analysis to determine the level of fecal chymotrypsin in the stool. Alternatively, other methods, such as the colorimetric method, use of substrates, use of assays, and/or any other suitable method may be used to measure the fecal chymotrypsin levels. The levels of fecal chymotrypsin in the samples of the primipara pregnant women were compared to the levels of fecal chymotrypsin in pregnant women not diagnosed with preeclampsia to determine if the primipara pregnant women would benefit from the administration of digestive enzymes.
[043] The foregoing description of the embodiments of the invention has been presented for the purposes of illustration and description. It is not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the invention to the precise form disclosed. Many modifications and variations are possible in light of this disclosure. It is intended that the scope of the invention be limited not by this detailed description, but rather by the claims appended hereto.
