Other aspects of the current disclosure are described below.
Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art. It must be noted that as used herein and in the appended claims, the singular forms “a”, “and”, and “the” include plural referents unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. Thus, e.g., reference to “the compound” includes a plurality of such compounds and reference to “the assay” includes reference to one or more assays and equivalents thereof known to those skilled in the art, and so forth.
A dash at the front or end of a chemical group is a matter of convenience; chemical groups may be depicted with or without one or more terminal dashes without losing their ordinary meaning.

Compounds described herein may contain one or more polyethylene glycol (PEG) groups (polymers of ethylene oxide). The size of the PEG groups can be characterized by molecular formula, the number of monomer units, or by average molecular weight. It is well known in the art that PEG is available in a wide range of lengths or average molecular weights, and that PEG characterized by average molecular weight will have some distribution in the exact number of monomers in each polymer. Suitable PEG groups are available from Sigma-Aldrich Corporation and other chemical suppliers. In general, and without limiting the scope of this disclosure, compounds described herein may have from about 1 to about 1000 monomers, or PEG groups with average molecular weights from about 44 to about 44,000. For example, compound 38-1 contains 2 ethylene oxide groups (in this compound, X is —(OCH2CH2)h— wherein h is 3, and V is methyl). By way of further example, compound 38-125 has a PEG group with an average molecular weight of about 2000 (an average of about 43 monomers). By way of further example, compound 38-113 has 100 ethylene oxide groups. By way of further example, compound 39-4 contains 2 ethylene oxide groups (in this compound, X is —(OCH2CH2)h— wherein h is 2, and V is methyl). By way of further example, compound 39-24 has a PEG group with an average molecular weight of about 1276 (an average of about 29 monomers). By way of further example, compound 39-23 has 19 ethylene oxide groups.
Certain compounds described herein may contain more than one polyol group. For example, compound 38-97 may be described as containing four polyol groups, two two-carbon groups and two one-carbon groups, and terminates in a hydrogen (i.e., following the description of Formula I, X is —CH2CHOH—, —CH2CHOH—, —CHOH—, and —CHOH—; and V is H). By way of further example, compound 39-29 may be described as containing three polyol groups, three one-carbon groups, and terminates in a hydrogen (i.e., following the description of Formula I, X is (CHOR3)h where R3 is H and h is 3; and V is H).
Furthermore, certain compounds described herein may be described as copolymers or block copolymers. That is, in compounds of Formula I wherein X is a combination of the groups described, X may be described as a copolymer or block copolymer of those substitutents. For example, in certain compounds, X may be block copolymer of a first block of —(CH2CH2O)h— and a second block of —(CHOR3)h— wherein R3 is hydrogen, alkyl, acyl, aryl, heteroalkyl, or heteroaryl, each of which may be optionally substituted, and h in each instance is from about 1 to about 1000. As an illustrative and nonlimiting example, compounds 38-141 and 38-142 describe compounds wherein X is three groups of —CHOH— (that is, (CHOR3)h wherein R3 is H and h is 3) and one group of CHOCH3 (that is, (CHOR3)h wherein R3 is CH3 and h is 1). By way of further example, compound 39-127 describes a compound wherein X is three groups of —CHOH— (that is, (CHOR3)h wherein R3 is H and h is 3) and one group of CHOCH3 (that is, (CHOR3)h wherein R3 is CH3 and h is 1).
Salts of the compounds of the present application may be prepared by reacting the free acid or base moieties of these compounds, where present, with a stoichiometric or greater amount of the appropriate base or acid in water or in an organic solvent, or in a mixture of the two; generally, e.g., non-aqueous media like ether, ethyl acetate, ethanol, isopropanol. The salts of the present application may also be prepared by ion exchange.
Compounds of Formula I may be formulated as solids, liquids, gels, aerosols, and other forms. For example, solid formulations may consist primarily of a compound of Formula I as a salt. Compositions comprising one or more compounds of Formula I and one or more other substances (e.g. excipients) may be formed, and may take the form of aerosols, creams, emulsions, gels, lotions, ointments, pastes, powders, solutions, suspensions, and other forms suitable for their intended use or application.
Compositions may also include multiple (e.g. two or more) compounds of Formula I. The compositions may also comprise other active ingredients, such as HOCl, OCl−, and other antimicrobial agents.
Compositions or formulations may include a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, as defined above. By way of example, the compositions of the present application may include the following pharmaceutically acceptable carriers: sodium chloride to attain isotonicity, buffers, stabilizers, solvents, flavoring agents (in case of oral or nasopharyngeal administration or the food industry), preserving agents, diluents, extenders and other auxiliary substances or excipients. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable carriers and excipients that may be used are described in Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, R. Hendrickson, ed., 21st edition, Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins, Philadelphia, Pa., (2005) at pages 317-318, which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entireties. In general, water, saline, oils, alcohols (e.g. 2-propanol, 1-butanol, etc.), polyols (e.g. 1,2-propanediol, 2,3-butanediol, etc.), and glycols (e.g. propylene glycol, polyethylene glycols, etc.) may be suitable carriers for solutions. In one aspect solutions contain the active ingredient in a water soluble or aqueous medium soluble form, e.g. as a salt, together with suitable stabilizing agents, and if necessary, buffer substances.
For example, compounds of Formula I may be formulated with cyclodextrin or cyclodextrin derivatives, including cyclodextrin sulfobutyl ether (Capisol®, Cydex Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Overland Park, Kans., USA). These and other carriers may be used to improve or otherwise modulate the solubility, penetration, uptake, and other properties of compositions comprising the compounds described herein.
Aerosols can range from colloidal dispersions to formulations designed for pressurized delivery. Modes of operation include liquefied-gas systems, compressed-gas systems, and barrier-type systems.
Creams are viscous liquids or semisolid emulsions, either oil-in-water or water-in-oil. Cream bases are water-washable, and contain an oil phase, an emulsifier and an aqueous phase. The oil phase, also called the “internal” phase, is generally comprised of petrolatum and a fatty alcohol such as cetyl or stearyl alcohol. The aqueous phase usually, although not necessarily, exceeds the oil phase in volume, and generally contains a humectant. The emulsifier in a cream formulation is generally a nonionic, anionic, cationic or amphoteric surfactant.
Emulsions are two-phase systems prepared by combining two immiscible liquids, in which small globules of one liquid are dispersed uniformly throughout the other liquid. Emulsions may be designated as oil-in-water or water-in-oil type emulsions. Certain emulsions may not be classified as such because they are described by another category, such as a lotion, cream, and the like.
Gels are semisolid, suspension-type systems. Single-phase gels contain organic macromolecules distributed substantially uniformly throughout the carrier liquid, which is typically aqueous, but also, e.g., contain an alcohol such as ethanol or isopropanol and, optionally, an oil. Exemplary gelling agents include crosslinked acrylic acid polymers such as the “carbomer” family of polymers, e.g., carboxypolyalkylenes that may be obtained commercially under the Carbopol® trademark. Also useful are hydrophilic polymers such as polyethylene oxides, polyoxyethylene-polyoxypropylene copolymers and polyvinylalcohol; cellulosic polymers such as hydroxypropyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose phthalate, and methyl cellulose; gums such as tragacanth and xanthan gum; sodium alginate; and gelatin. In order to prepare a uniform gel, dispersing agents such as alcohol or glycerin can be added, or the gelling agent can be dispersed by trituration, mechanical mixing or stirring, or combinations thereof.
Lotions are preparations generally applied to the skin surface so as to avoid high friction, and are typically liquid or semiliquid preparations in which solid particles, including the active agent, are present in a water or alcohol base. Lotions are usually suspensions of solids, and, e.g., comprise a liquid oily emulsion of the oil-in-water type. Lotions can be used to large body areas, because of the ease of applying a generally fluid composition. It is generally necessary that the insoluble matter in a lotion be finely divided. Lotions will typically contain suspending agents to produce better dispersions as well as compounds useful for localizing and holding the active agent in contact with the skin, e.g., methylcellulose, sodium carboxymethyl-cellulose, or the like.
Ointments are semi-solid preparations that are typically based on petrolatum or other petroleum derivatives. The specific ointment base to be used is one that will provide for optimum active ingredient delivery, and other desired characteristics, e.g., emolliency. As with other carriers or vehicles, an ointment base should be inert, stable, nonirritating and nonsensitizing. Ointment bases may be grouped in four classes: oleaginous bases, emulsifiable bases, emulsion bases and water-soluble bases. Oleaginous ointment bases include, e.g., vegetable oils, fats obtained from animals, and semisolid hydrocarbons obtained from petroleum. Emulsifiable ointment bases, also known as absorbent ointment bases, contain little or no water and include, e.g., hydroxystearin sulfate, anhydrous lanolin and hydrophilic petrolatum. Emulsion ointment bases are either water-in-oil (W/O) emulsions or oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions, and include, e.g., cetyl alcohol, glyceryl monostearate, lanolin and stearic acid. For example, water-soluble ointment bases are prepared from polyethylene glycols of varying molecular weight.
Pastes are semisolid dosage forms in which the active agent is suspended in a suitable base. Depending on the nature of the base, pastes are divided between fatty pastes or those made from single-phase aqueous gels. The base in a fatty paste is generally petrolatum or hydrophilic petrolatum or the like. The pastes made from single-phase aqueous gels generally incorporate carboxymethylcellulose or the like as a base.
Suspensions may be defined as a coarse dispersion containing finely divided insoluble material suspended in a liquid medium. Formulations may also be prepared with liposomes, micelles and microspheres.
Various additives may also be included in formulations, e.g. to solubilize the active ingredients. Other optional additives include opacifiers, antioxidants, fragrances, colorants, gelling agents, thickening agents, stabilizers, surfactants and the like.
These and other compositions or formulations suitable for carrying and delivering compounds of Formula I (which include compounds of Formula IA) are described in Chapters 22, 39, 43, 45, 50 and 55 of Remington, above, which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entireties.
The concentration of compounds of Formula I (which include compounds of Formula IA) or their salts in compositions, formulations, and dosage forms may be up to the saturation concentration of those compounds (or salts), e.g., up to about 1 M (molar), up to about 500 mM (millimolar), or up to about 150 mM. For example, compositions of the present application can comprise a concentration of a compound of Formula I (or its salt) ranging from about 0.001 mM to about 1 M, from about 0.01 mM to about 500 mM, from about 0.05 mM to about 150 mM, from about 0.1 mM to about 10 mM, and about 0.5 mM to about 2 mM.
In a further aspect, compositions of the present application comprise isotonic or physiologically balanced solutions of compounds of Formula I or their salts.
The compounds of Formula I, or their salts, are useful in methods of preventing or treating microbial (e.g. bacterial, viral, or fungal) infection or contamination. Compounds described herein may also be administered to prevent or treat a disease, disorder, ailment, or other pathology caused by bacteria, fungus, virus, or associated biofilm. The compounds or salts described herein may also be used for the preparation of a medicine for the prevention or treatment of microbial infection, contamination or activity in a subject. Such methods comprise administering or applying an effective amount of the compound or salt thereof in or near the area of interest, e.g. in or near a tissue or organ, to a surface of a medical device, within a storage container, and so on.
Compositions described herein have antimicrobial activity against a broad range of microorganisms. Tables 3 and 4 show activity of selected compounds against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Candida albicans. These compounds may be effective against other organisms including Haemophilus influenzae, Enterococcus faecium, Enterococcus faecalis, Listeria monocytogenes, methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA), Staphylococcus epidermidis, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Proteus mirabilis, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Lactobacillus spp., Acinetobacter junii, yeast, (e.g. Candida albicans), vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus spp., molds, and spores, including spores of anthrax and cysts of Acanthamoeba spp.

Compositions of the present application are useful in a wide range or applications in which antimicrobial properties are desirable. Such applications include, without limitation, treatment or reduction of pathogens on or in the skin, nails, hair, or mucous membranes, wounds, surgical sites, and so forth. Applications and areas of interest include wounds, burns, ulcers, inflammation or lesions of the skin, the eyes, ears, nasal passages, sinus, bronchopulmonary system, vagina, rectum and other mucous membranes or related tissues.
While N-halogenated compounds of Formula I may have inherent antimicrobial activity, the corresponding N-protonated (i.e. non-halogenated) analogs may also have antimicrobial activity, or may be activated to an antimicrobial (or increased antimicrobial) state by a source of halogen. For example, it is well known that hypochlorite and/or hypochlorous acid is generated by neutrophils, eosinophils, mononuclear phagocytes, and B lymphocytes [see, e.g., L. Wang et al., J. Burns Wounds, 6, 65-79 (2007) and M. Nagl et al., Antimicrob. Agents Chemother. 44(9) 2507-13 (2000)]. Certain organic chloramines, including N-chlorotaurine, have been detected in the supernatants of stimulated granulocytes, and are thought to prolong the oxidative capacity of these cells during oxidative burst and to protect cells from damage by HOCl/OCl−. In a similar fashion to taurine, N-protonated compounds of Formula I in or near these cells may be chlorinated during oxidative burst, and may serve a similar microbicidal and/or protective effect. Thus, compounds of Formula I may be used in methods to generate antimicrobial activity in situ, to prolong or otherwise modulate the oxidative capacity of cells during oxidative burst, or to decrease associated cyctotoxicity.
The compounds described herein may also be useful in a method to decontaminate, disinfect, or clean surfaces of materials, devices, or equipment, the method comprising contacting the material, device, or equipment with a solution comprising a compound or salt thereof. For example, a solution comprising a compound of Formula I can be applied by spray or an applicator such as a cotton ball or cloth to the medical device, or the medical device can be immersed in said solution. Applications include the elimination or reduction of pathogens (e.g. bacteria, virus, fungus, microbe, etc.) on or in medical (including surgical, dental, optical, and other) devices, equipment and instruments, (e.g. breathing tubes, catheters, contact lenses, dental implants and equipment, equipment used for organ preservation, hearing aids, prostheses, stents, etc.), devices, food (e.g., meats, fish, fruits, vegetables, nuts, etc.) and food contact surfaces (e.g. cutting tools, cutting surfaces, storage rooms or containers, etc.) including the elimination or reduction of bacterial biofilms, and agricultural uses including protection of seed stocks.
By way of example, compounds and compositions of the present application may be used for the eradication of bacteria (including bacteria in a biofilm), such as, but not limited to, bacterial and biofilms in or on medical devices, e.g. in the lumen of a catheter (e.g. urinary, central venous, hemodialysis catheters and the like), stent, breathing tube, etc. Such methods may include the destruction of the corresponding biofilm matrix to clear the bacterial load from the medical device, such as improving or maintaining patency in the lumen of a catheter, stent, or breathing tube. Biofilms are a group of microorganisms attached to a substrate and are often associated with the excretion of extracelullar polymeric substance [R. M. Donlan et al., Clin. Microbiol. Rev., 4, 167-193 (2002)]. The demonstrated resistance of biofilms to antimicrobials has caused problems in human health and has had a significant impact on the success of medical implants, e.g., catheters [J. W. Costerton et al., Science, 284(5418), 1318-22 (1999)]. Once catheters are colonized, biofilms will develop on the outer and inner surfaces and cause infections. Reduction of the bacterial load by prevention of the formation of biofilm [J. F. Williams and S. D. Worley, J. Endourology, 14(5), 395-400 (2000); K. Lewis and A. M. Klibanov, Trends in Biotech., 23, 7, 343-348 (2005)], destruction of an existing biofilm [P. Wood et al., Appl. Env. Microb. 62(7), 2598-2602 (1996)] and killing bacteria in biofilm [P. Gilbert and A. J. McBain, Am. J. Infect. Control, 29, 252-255 (2001)] are strategies towards lowering microbial load and reducing biofilm-related infection from any catheters and shunts, such as but not limited to, urinary and central venous catheters, implanted artificial joints, implanted artificial hearts, gastric feeding tubes, and colostomy tubes.
Compounds described herein may be used to treat, eradicate, or prevent the formation of biofilm formed by a variety of bacteria and fungi, including, but not limited to, gram-positive cocci, gram-negative rods, P. aeruginosa, C. albicans, S. aureus, B. cepacia, E. coli, S. epidermidis, A. hydrophila, H. influenzae, S. liquifaciens, P. mirabilis, K. pneumoniae, and P. vulgaris. A discussion of these, and examples of other, biofilm-forming species may be found in, e.g., S. Kjelleberg, and S. Molin, Curr Opin Microbiol., June, 5(3):254-8 (2002); J. W. Consterton et al., Science, 284, May 21, 1318-11 (1999); and D. J. Stickler et al., Methods in Enzymology, 310: 494-501 (1999).
In another application of decontaminating, disinfecting, or cleaning medical devices, a solution of a compound of the present application may be used to decontaminate, disinfect, or clean contact lenses. Disinfection of contact lenses is important in the prevention of infections of the eye caused by micro-organisms. Microbes are primarily introduced to the eye by handling of the lens. For example, introduction of E. coli may lead to infections of various eye structures, such as microbial keratitis. Fungal pathogens, such as Fusarium spp., can also infect the eye when transferred from a colonized contact lens. See, e.g., J. K. Suchecki et al., Ophthalmol. Clin. North Am., 16(3), 471-84 (2003). In one embodiment, a method provides for immersing a contact lens in an aqueous solution of a compound of Formula I for a sufficient period of time so as to kill or otherwise inactivate substantially all of bacteria, viruses or other microbes present thereon. For example, contact lenses can be left overnight in an aqueous solution of a compound of Formula I. Such solutions may also contain additional preservatives and disinfecting agents as well as cleaning and other agents. These solutions may be used to store contact lenses (e.g., in packaging, between uses, in carrying cases, etc.), to condition lenses, to wet or re-wet lenses before insertion into the eye, or to clean and rinse lenses.

Various chlorine sources may be used to produce the N-chlorinated compounds, e.g., chlorine itself (i.e., Cl2 gas), certain N-chloroarylsulfonamide salts, wherein the aryl group contains from about 6 to about 15 carbon atoms with 1 or 2 aromatic rings, or 6 to 10 or 6 to 8 carbon atoms and one aromatic ring, such as N-chlorobenzene-sulfonamide or N-chloro-4-alkylbenzenesulfonamide, wherein the alkyl group is an alkyl from about 1 to about 4 carbons, such as methyl or ethyl. The N-chlorobenzene-sulfonamides or N-chloro-4-alkylbenzenesulfonamides are often used in the form of their salts, e.g., alkali salts, e.g., sodium or potassium salts. Frequently used reagents include N-chlorobenzenesulfonamide and N-chloro-4-methyl-benzenesulfonamide in the form of their sodium salts, because they are readily commercially available.
