Definitions
- graft rejection is a complex process involving the immune system. This process is briefly outlined below. Rejection appears to be initiated by blood borne antigen presenting cells (dendritic cells and monocytes expressing class II MHC molecules) of the allograft which migrate from the allograft. Antigen recognition and production of IL-1 by the antigen presenting cells causes the activation of CD4 + T-cells thereby initiating an immune response leading to the ultimate graft rejection. Activated CD4+ T-cells produce IL-2 which is a growth factor essential to the activation of both CD8 + T-cells and B-cells.
- blood borne antigen presenting cells dendritic cells and monocytes expressing class II MHC molecules
- T-cells cytotoxic CD8+ T-cells and CD4+ T-cells
- cytotoxic CD8+ T-cells and CD4+ T-cells migrate from the host lymphoid tissue and infiltrate the graft tissue.
- Infiltration involves initial adherence of the T-lymphocytes to vascular endothelium, transmigration through the vascular wall, migration within the graft, selective retention of activated cells within the graft, and local proliferation of cells.
- Antigen presenting graft cells are destroyed direcdy by cytotoxic CD8 + T-cells.
- CD4+ T-cells produce other lymphokines such as interferon- ⁇ (LFN- ⁇ ), IL-4, and IL-5 which also contribute to graft destruction.
- LFN- ⁇ interferon- ⁇
- IL-4 interferon- ⁇
- IL-5 IL-5
- LFN- ⁇ induces increased expression of HLA-A, -B, and -DR on graft tissue making it more vulnerable to effector mechanisms.
- IFN- ⁇ also activates macrophages to initiate a delayed hypersensitivity reaction causing nonspecific damage to the graft.
- IL-4 and LL-5 are implicated in inducing antibody production by plasma cells leading to antibody mediated damage of the graft. [Hutchinson, I., Transplantation 3: 722 (1991); Garovoy, M.R., Basic and Clinical Immunology, ed. Stites, 7th ed., 747 (1991)].
- cyclosporin A is the most powerful and most frequentiy used, but has the unsatisfactory side-effect of nephrotoxicity in man, which can lead to structural renal damage.
- rapamycin a macrocyclic triene antibiotic produced by Streptomyces hygroscopicus [U.S. Patent 3,929,992] has been shown to prevent the formation of humoral (IgE-like) antibodies in response to an albumin allergic challenge [Martel, R., Can. J. Physiol. Pharm. 55: 48 (1977)], inhibit murine T-cell activation [Staruch, M., FASEB 3: 3411 (1989)], prolong survival time of organ grafts in histoincompatible rodents [Morris, R., Med. Sci. Res. 17: 877 (1989)], and inhibit transplantation rejection in mammals [U.S. Patent 5,100,999].
- Rapamycin has also been shown to be useful in treating pulmonary inflammation [U.S. Patent 5,080,899], systemic lupus erythematosis [U.S. Patent 5,078,899], immunoinflammatory skin disorders, such as psoriasis [U.S. Patent 5,286,730], immunoinflammatory bowel disorders [U.S. Patent 5,286,731], ocular inflammation [U.S. Patent 5,387,589], hyperproliferative vascular disorders, such as restenosis [U.S. Patents 5,512,781 and 5,288,711], carcinomas [U.S. Patent 5,206,018 and 4,885,171], and cardiac inflammatory disease [U.S.
- Patent 5,496,832 ; and in preventing the onset of insulin dependent diabetes mellitus [U.S. Patent 5,321,009]. Additionally, rapamycin has been shown to be useful in treating adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma [European Patent Application 525,960 Al].
- vitamin D 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol
- l,25(OH) 2 D 3 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol
- l,25(OH)2D3 has a strong impact on the immune system, probably exerted via specific receptors present in both monocytes and activated T lymphocytes [Rigby, W.F.C., Immunol. Today 9: 54 (1988)].
- l,25(OH)2U3 seems to impair immune cell interaction at the macrophage as well as at the T helper level [Rigby, W.F.C., Blood 76: 189 (1990)], and modulates the paracrine function of the two cell types [Manolagas, S.C, Semin. Nephrol. 14: 129 (1994)].
- This invention provides a combination of rapamycin and 1,25- dihydroxycholecalciferol (l,25(OH)2D3) which is useful for inducing immunosuppression, and in the treatment of transplantation rejection, graft vs. host disease, autoimmune diseases, diseases of inflammation, adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma, neoplasms, fungal infections, and hyperproliferative vascular disorders.
- the combination of rapamycin and l,25(OH) 2 D 3 can be administered to a mammal orally, parenterally, intranasally, intrabronchially, transdermally, topically, intravaginally, or rectally.
- This invention also provides a pharmaceutical composition
- a pharmaceutical composition comprising rapamycin and l,25(OH)2D3, and a pharmaceutical carrier.
- the ability the combination of rapamycin and l,25(OH)2D3 to act as an immunosuppressive agent was established in an in vitro and in vivo standard pharmacological test procedure.
- the in vitro procedure evaluated the ability of the rapamycin and l,25(OH)2D3 combination to inhibit PHA-stimulated PMBC proliferation.
- the in vivo test procedure measured the ability of the rapamycin and l,25(OH)2D3 combination to inhibit the development of experimental allergic encephalomyelitis, which is a test procedure emulating multiple sclerosis, an autoimmune disease.
- the procedures used and the results obtained are briefly described below.
- the PHA-stimulated PMBC proliferation standard pharmaceutical test procedure was used to evaluate the immunosuppressive activity of the combination of the rapamycin and l,25(OH)2D3 combination. Briefly, human PBMC were isolated from freshly collected heparinized venous blood of healthy volunteers by Ficoll-Hypaque density gradient centrifugation.
- Radioactivity was measured with a ⁇ - scintillation counter, and the percent proliferation was calculated.
- the results obtained in this standard pharmacological test procedure are provided in the table below, which shows the dosages necessary to produce specified percent inhibition of PHA-stimulated PMBC proliferation.
- mice The experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) standard pharmacological test procedure was used to further evaluate the immunosuppressive activity of the combination of rapamycin and l,25(OH)2U3. This test procedure also evaluated the combination's activity against autoimmune disorders. Briefly, mouse spinal cord, isolated from NMRI mice, was lyophilized and stored as powder at +4°C. The mice were injected in their hind foot pads with 50 ⁇ l of an emulsion consisting in an equal volume mixture of mouse spinal cord in PBS (55 mg/ml) and mycobacterium tuberculosis strain H37-Ra in complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA, 4 mg/ml). The induction day was considered day 0. On days 0 and +2, pertussis toxin, 200 ng in a volume of 50 ⁇ l PBS, was given intravenously on the induction day and repeated two days later.
- EAE experimental allergic encephalomyelitis
- the last two groups were treated with combinations between l,25(OH)2U3 at 2 pg/kg every 2 days and the same total dose of rapamycin, but given either in daily administrations of 0.3 mg/kg (group MLX-1, 25 mice), or 0.6 mg/kg given every two days (group MLX-2, 23 mice).
- rapamycin administered in the last group was alternated with that of l,25(OH)2D3, starting with rapamycin on day -3.
- Three to seven urine samples were collected from each mouse which measured urinary calcium and collagen cross-links content (deoxypyridinoline, DPD). All mice were sacrificed on day 20, or earlier if severely paralyzed. Blood was collected by heart puncture, under ether anesthesia. Serum was stored at -20"C, for further measurement of calcium and osteocalcin. Duodenum, 1 cm below the pylorus, was isolated, rinsed and stored at -20°C, until assayed for calbindin D-9K content. Brain and spinal cord were removed and fixed in Bouin solution for histology.
- mice were assessed for clinical signs of paralysis, starting on day 9. EAE signs were scored daily, on a scale from 0 to 4. Scores were evaluated blindly, by two independent observers. To be considered positive for clinical EAE, a mouse must have been scored 0.5 or higher for 2 consecutive days. For the mice found dead after previously presenting signs of disease, or for moribunds sacrificed before day 20, a score of 4 was considered from the day of their death until the end of the follow up.
- the disease free survivorship representing the number of disease free mice of one group on the day of sacrifice, and the following parameters of disease severity were used: the cumulative score, defined as the sum of the daily mean scores of one group between days 11 and 20 of the follow up; the integrated disease score, calculated by making the mean of all individual daily scores of the last 10 days for one group, and the mean maximal disease score, which is the mean of the maximal disease scores reached by all the mice of one group.
- the results of this standard pharmacological test procedure showed that treatment with both l,25(OH)2U3 and rapamycin alone significantly decreased disease severity (p ⁇ 0.0001 by ANOVA test). All but one of the control mice showed signs of paralysis.
- mice In the group treated with l,25(OH) 2 D 3 at 2 ⁇ g/kg every 2 days, 8 of 23 mice were disease free at the end of the follow up (30 %, group D2), whereas 5 ⁇ g/kg every 2 days prevented the appearance of disease in 65 % of the treated mice (13 out of 25 mice, group D5) and postponed the disease onset in the mice who did develop the disease (p ⁇ 0.01). Rapamycin at 1 mg/kg/day (group RP1) conferred near to total protection (only 2 out of 28 animals developed mild disease), whereas lower doses were only partially protective.
- rapamycin at 0.3 mg/kg/day prevented disease evolution in 45 % of the animals (group RP0.3), while the same drug quantity given every two days (0.6 mg/kg every 2 days, group RP0.06') was somehow less protective (31 % disease free animals at the end of the observation period).
- mice with mild or no central nervous system inflammation were four, five and three out of eight for groups D2, RP0.3 and RPO.6' respectively.
- groups D2, RP0.3 and RPO.6' were inflammation - free, only one showing mild mononuclear infiltration.
- Mean histological score was significantly lower than that of group D2 in both combination groups.
- the combination of rapamycin and l,25(OH) 2 U3 is useful in treating or preventing diseases or disorders involving the immune system.
- diseases or disorders involving the immune system include, but are not limited to, in the treatment or inhibition of transplantation rejection such as kidney, heart, liver, lung, bone marrow, pancreas (islet cells), cornea, small bowel, and skin allografts, and heart valve xenografts; treatment or inhibition of autoimmune diseases and diseases of inflammation such as systemic lupus erythematosis, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes mellitus, myasthenia gravis, aplastic anemia, pure red cell anemia, idiopathic thrombocytopenia, polychondritis, scleroderma, Wegener's granulomatosis, chronic active hepatitis, biliary cirrhosis, sarcioidosis, nephrotic syndrome, multiple sclerosis, Steven- John
- rapamycin and l,25(OH>2D3 may be used in combination with other agents useful in treating or preventing diseases or disorders involving the immune system, such as azathioprine, corticosteroids, such as prednisone and methylprednisolone, cyclophosphamide, cyclosporin A, FK-506, OKT-3, and ATG to further reduce dosage requirements needed to achieve the desired effect.
- azathioprine corticosteroids, such as prednisone and methylprednisolone

- the liquid carrier can contain other suitable pharmaceutical additives such as solubilizers, emulsifiers, buffers, preservatives, sweeteners, flavoring agents, suspending agents, thickening agents, colors, viscosity regulators, stabilizers or osmo-regulators.
- suitable examples of liquid carriers for oral and parenteral administration include water (partially containing additives as above, e.g.
- cellulose derivatives preferably sodium carboxymethyl cellulose solution
- alcohols including monohydric alcohols and polyhydric alcohols, e.g. glycols) and their derivatives, and oils (e.g. fractionated coconut oil and arachis oil).
- the carrier can also be an oily ester such as ethyl oleate and isopropyl myristate.
- Sterile liquid carriers are useful in sterile liquid form compositions for parenteral administration.
- the liquid carrier for pressurized compositions can be halogenated hydrocarbon or other pharmaceutically acceptable propellant.
- Liquid pharmaceutical compositions which are sterile solutions or suspensions can be utilized by, for example, intramuscular, intraperitoneal or subcutaneous injection. Sterile solutions can also be administered intravenously. The compound can also be administered orally either in liquid or solid composition form.
- the combination of rapamycin and l,25(OH)2D3 may be administered rectally in the form of a conventional suppository.
- the compounds of this invention may be formulated into an aqueous or partially aqueous solution, which can then be utilized in the form of an aerosol.
