Definitions
- the invention relates to a new biotechnological preparation process that can be used on an industrial scale for the production of epothilones, especially a process for concentrating these compounds in the culture medium, as well as a new strain for the fermentative preparation of these compounds.
- the invention also relates to new crystal forms of epothilones, especially epothilone B, obtainable by the new processes, their usage in the production of pharmaceutical preparations, new pharmaceutical preparations comprising these new crystal forms and/or the use of these compounds in the treatment of proliferative diseases such as tumours, or in the production of pharmaceutical formulations which are suitable for this treatment.
- Taxol ® (Paclitaxel; Bristol- Myers Squibb), a microtubuii-stabilising agent, plays an important role and has remarkable commercial success.
- Taxol has a number of disadvantages. In particular, its very poor solubility in water is a problem. It therefore became necessary to administer Taxol ® in a formulation with Cremophor EL ® (polyoxyethylated castor oil; BASF, Ludwigshafen, Germany). Cremophor EL ® has severe side effects; for example it causes allergies which in at least one case have led even to the death of a patient.
- Taxan class of microtubuii-stabilising anti-cancer agents has been commended as "perhaps the most important addition to the pharmaceutical armoury against cancer in the last decade" (see Rowinsky E.K., Ann. rev. Med. 48, 353-374 (1997)), and despite the commercial success of Taxol ® , these compounds still do not appear to represent a really great breakthrough in the chemotherapy of cancer. Treatment with Taxol ® is linked with a series of significant side effects, and a few primary classes of compact tumours, namely colon and prostate tumours, respond to this compound only to a small extent (see Rowinsky E.K., inter alia).
- Epothilones A and B represent a new class of microtubuii-stabilising cytotoxic active ingredients (see Gerth, K. et al., J. Antibiot. 49, 560-3 (1966)) of the formulae:
- R signifies hydrogen (epothilone A) or methyl (epothilone B).
- the disadvantage of this process is that, on a large scale, it leads to an abundance of problems. Valves are impaired by the globules of resin, pipes can block, and apparatus may be subject to greater wear due to mechanical friction.
- the globules of resin are porous and therefore have a large inner surface area (about 825 m 2 /gram resin). Sterilisation becomes a problem, as air enclosed in the resin is not autoclaved. Thus, the process cannot be practicably carried out on a large scale using resin addition.
- One aspect of the invention relates to a process for concentrating epothilones, especially epithilone A and/or B, in particular epothilone B, in a culture medium, in order to produce these compounds on a biotechnological scale, the process comprising microorganisms which produce these compounds, especially myxobacteria (as producers of natural substances), whereby a complex-forming component which is soluble in the culture medium is added to the medium.
- a further aspect relates to the corresponding culture medium, which comprises a corresponding complex-forming component and microorganisms, especially myxobacteria, in particular of the genus Sorangium, which are suitable for producing epothilones, especially epothilone A and/or B.
- a further aspect of the invention relates to a process for the production of epothilones, especially epothilone A and/or B, especially the two pure compounds, in particular epothilone B, which is characterised in that the epothilones are obtained by working up a culture medium for the biotechnological preparation of these compounds, which comprises as producers of natural substances microorganisms, especially myxobacteria, that produce these compounds, and to which a complex-forming component that is soluble in the culture medium is added, and the subsequent purification and, if desired, separation of the epothilones, for example epothilone A and B.
- a fourth aspect of the invention relates to a method of separating epothilones, especially epothilones A and B from one another, which is characterised by chromatography on a reversed-phase column with an eluant comprising a lower alkyl cyanide.
- a further aspect of the invention relates to a strain of Sorangium cellulosum obtained by mutagenesis, which under otherwise identical conditions, produces more epothilones than Sorangium cellulosum Soce ⁇ O.
- a further aspect also relates to new crystal forms of epothilone B.
- Lower alkyl may be for example unbranched or branched once or more, and is e.g. methyl, ethyl, propyl such as isopropyl or n-propyl, butyl such as isobutyl, sec. -butyl, tert. -butyl or n-butyl, or also pentyl such as amyl or n-pentyl.
- a culture medium for the biotechnological preparation of epothilones which contains microorganisms that produce these compounds, especially myxobacteria, as producers of natural substances is primarily a medium which comprises a corresponding (naturally occurring or also obtainable by cultivation or in particular by genetic modification) microorganism, especially a myxobacterial strain which is in a position to produce these compounds, in particular a myxobacterium of the genus Sorangium, preferably (in particular for epothilone production) a microorganism of the type Sorangium Cellulosum Soce ⁇ O (see WO 93/10121 ), or a biomaterial derived therefrom (for example by mutagenesis or recombinant gene technology) or from parts of this myxobacterium, especially a correspondingly derived strain, in particular the strain having the reference BCE33/10 or mutants thereof, and in addition, together with water, preferably other conventional and appropriate constituents of culture media, such as biopolymers, sugar, amino acids, salt
- One preferred myxobacterium is a strain selected by UV mutagenesis and selection for increased formation of epothilone A and/or B over Sorangium cellulosum Soce ⁇ O, which is deposited in the DSM under no. 6773, especially the mutant BCE33/10, which was deposited under the number DSM 1 1999 on 9th February 1998 at the German Collection of Microorganisms and Cell Cultures (DSMZ, Braunschweig, Germany).
- strain BCE 33/10 The strain can grow on cellulose as the sole source of carbon and energy with potassium nitrate as the sole source of nitrogen, e.g. on filter paper over ST21 mineral salt agar (0.1 % KNO 3 ; 0.1 % MgSO 4 x 7 H 2 O; 0.1 % CaCI 2 x 2 H 2 O; 0.1 % K 2 HPO 4 ; 0.01 % MnSO 4 x 7 H 2 O; 0.02 % FeCI 3 ; 0.002% yeast extract; standard trace element solution; 1% agar). On this medium, dark reddish- brown to blackish-brown fruiting bodies are formed. They consist of small sporangioles (ca. 15 to 30 ⁇ m diameter) and exist in dense heaps and packs of varying size.
- the vegetative bacilli have the shape typical of Sorangium (relatively compact, under the phase contrast microscope dark, cylindrical bacilli with broad rounded ends, on average 3 to 6 ⁇ m long and 1 ⁇ m thick).
- Epothilones are primarily epothilone A and/or B, but also other epothilones, for example epothilones C and D named in International Application WO 97/19086 and WO 98/22461 , epothilones E and F named in WO 98/22461 , and further epothilones obtainable from corresponding microorganisms.
- a water-soluble complex-forming component is primarily a water-soluble oligo- or polypeptide derivative or in particular an oligo- or polysaccharide derivative of cyclic-or helical structure, which forms an intramolecular cavity, which because of its sufficiently hydrophobic properties is in a position to bind epothilones, especially epothilone A and/or epothilone B.
- a water-soluble complex-forming component that is especially preferred is one that is selected from cyclodextrins or (in particular) cyclodextrin derivatives, or mixtures thereof.
- Cyclodextrins are cyclic ( -1 ,4)-linked oligosaccharides of ⁇ -D-glucopyranose with a relatively hydrophobic central cavity and a hydrophilic external surface area.
