Description
:A 02821341 2013 06 11 Compositions for Anorectal Use and Methods for Treating Anorectal Disorders RELATED APPLICATION
This International application claims priority to U.S. Application Serial No.
13/161,992 filed June 16, 2011 and U.S. Application Serial No. 13/004,465 filed January 11, 2011, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.
BACKGROUND
Technical Field The present disclosure relates to compositions for anorectal use and methods for treating anorectal disorders. More particularly, the compositions for anorectal use include organic compounds containing at least two coordination elements selected from copper, silver, gold, aluminum, scandium, titanium, vanadium, chromium, manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel, zinc, gallium, yttrium, zirconium, niobium, molybdenum, technetrium, ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, cadmium, indium, tin and germanium. The organic compounds can be prepared by reacting a polyfunctional compound with two or more coordination elements.
Background of the Invention In general, anal fissure (fissure-in-ano), anal ulcer, hemorrhoidal diseases, and levator spasm (proctalgia fugax) are relatively common benign conditions of the anorectal area which affect subjects, including humans, of all ages, races, and sexes.
However, these conditions can be problematical and inconvenient to treat and painful to endure. An anal fissure or ulcer is a tear or ulcer of the mucosa or lining tissue of the :A 02821341 2013 06 11 distal anal canal. An anal fissure or ulcer can be associated with another systemic or local disease, but is more frequently present as an isolated finding. The typical idiopathic fissure or ulcer is confined to the anal mucosa and usually lies in the posterior midline, distal to the dentate line. An individual with an anal fissure or ulcer frequently experiences anal pain and bleeding, the pain being more pronounced during and after bowel movements.
Hemorrhoids are specialized vascular areas lying subjacent to the anal mucosa.
Symptomatic hemorrhoidal diseases are manifested by bleeding, thrombosis and/or prolapse of the hemorrhoidal tissues. Commonly, internal hemorrhoidal tissue bulges into the anal canal during defecation and results in bleeding and pain. As the tissue enlarges, further bleeding, pain, prolapse and thrombosis can ensue. The thrombosis of hemorrhoids is yet another cause of bleeding and pain.
Levator spasm is a condition affecting women more frequently than men. This syndrome is characterized by spasticity of the levator ani muscle, a portion of the anal sphincter complex. The patient suffering from levator spasm may experience severe, episodic rectal pain. A physical exam may reveal spasm of the puborectalis muscle and pain may be reproduced by direct pressure on this muscle. Bleeding is normally not associated with this condition.
Current treatments of anorectal disorders include relieving sphincter spasm and include dilatation (under anesthesia) or cutting a part of the sphincter (lateral internal sphincterotomy). In addition, applications of heat, cold, witch hazel, topical anesthetics, topical steroids, stool softeners, and bed rest have also been prescribed to treat the anorectal disorder as well as the symptoms associated with the disorder.

3 :A 02821341 2013 06 11 DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
The present disclosure describes compositions for anorectal use which include at least one polymetal complex. The synthetic compositions are prepared for anorectal administration and may be used in methods for treating anorectal disorders.
As defined herein, the term "anorectal region" is meant to include both the anus and the rectum regions of a mammal. Particularly, the term includes the internal anal canal, the external anus, the anal sphincter and the lower rectum.
The term "anorectal disorder" is defined herein to include any disorder associated with an anal rectal disease, including, but not limited to, acute or chronic anal fissures, internally or externally thrombosed hemorrhoids, hemorrhoidal diseases, disorders associated with endoscopic hemorrhoidal ligation, levator spasms, constipation, and pain associated with any anorectal disorder.
The terms "treatment" and "treating" are meant to include, but not be limited to, changes in the subject's status. The changes may be either subjective or objective and may relate to features such as symptoms or signs of the disease or disorder receiving therapy. For example, if the patient notes decreased itching, reduced bleeding, reduced discomfort or decreased pain, then successful treatment has occurred. Similarly, if the clinician notes objective changes, such as by histological analysis of a biopsy sample, then treatment has also been successful.
Alternatively, the clinician may note a decrease in the size of lesions or other abnormalities upon examination of the patient. This would also represent an improvement or a successful treatment. Prevention of deterioration of the recipient's status is also included by the term.

Thus, the foregoing list of salts should be considered a non-limiting, illustrative list.
:A 02821341 2013 06 11 For carrying out the process, a reaction solution can be prepared by mixing the various ingredients in water. Water in the mixture may advantageously be added in limited amounts sufficient to allow the reaction product to precipitate from solution upon formation. Accordingly, the reaction mixture is not so dilute as to prevent product precipitate formation. Where necessary, mixing and heating can be used to bring the reactants to 40 ¨ 100 C in order to force the reaction. As a result, reactant solubility may be enhanced through energy input such as microwave heating or addition of boiling water. The input of the energy may take place through any instrument capable of heating the aqueous reaction mixture. The reaction products formed in solution may be immediately separated so that their production can take place in a continuous process. Where a short reaction time and rapid crystallization of the reaction product occur, the conversion may be carried out continuously, and the recovery of the resultant solid product may take place by any conventional manner such as filtering, centrifugation, or sedimentation.
In embodiments, the method of forming a polymetal complex includes forming a solution by adding to a solvent (i) at least one polyfunctional compound selected from polycarboxylic acids, polyamines and amino acids having at least two carboxylic acid groups and (ii) basic salts of two or more coordination elements selected from one or more of copper, silver, gold, aluminum, scandium, titanium, vanadium, chromium, manganese, iron, cobalt, nickelõ zinc, gallium, yttrium, zirconium, niobium, molybdenum, technetium, ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, germanium, cadmium, and indium; and recovering a polymetal complex that includes the two or more :A 02821341 2013 06 11 PCT/US2012/1)2(1466 coordination elements joined to a central unit derived from the polyfunctional compound.

Suitable amounts of polyfunctional compound also include excess amounts in relation to the amount of metal cations. In embodiments, polyfunctional compound is present in a 3:1:1 molar ratio in relation to the metal constituents. In embodiments, the polyfunctional compound is malonic acid which can be present in acidic form, salt form, or mixtures thereof. In embodiments, the process parameters are especially advantageous if the polyfunctional compound is added to excess in comparison to the metal counter cation constituents.
Depending on the desired complex, the latter are added so that the molar ratio of polyfunctional compound to metal ions is approximately 3:2.
In embodiments, the coordination elements may be present as one or more ionic compounds formed by joining one or more independent coordination element molecules or ions of a first type and coordination element molecules or ions of a second type to a central unit by ionic bonds. For example, the reaction product may be in the form of a trinuclear cation, where structurally independent coordination element hydrates are bridged by a central unit. However, various coordination modes are possible depending on the source of the coordination elements and synthesis conditions. In embodiments, the central unit may be a multi-membered ring such as eight-membered ring, six-membered ring, and four-membered metalocycle for bridging or chelating functions between the coordination element constituents.
Accordingly, the crystal structures of the reaction products can be very diverse, from :A 02821341 2013 06 11 ionic to three-dimensional polymers. In embodiments, the reaction products are present in several hydrate, and polymorphic forms.

Cu/Zn Malonate Embodiments In embodiments, malonic acid may be reacted with salts containing copper and zinc constituents in an aqueous solution. It has been found that where the malonic acid, copper and zinc constituents are present in at least about a 3:1:1 molar ratio, copper-zinc malonates may be produced in good yield and high crystalline purity.
MaIonic acid refers to 1,3-propanedioic acid, a dicarboxylic acid with structure CH2(COOH)2 or:
?H ?H
:A 02821341 2013 06 11 The ion form of malonic acid, as well as its esters and salts, are known as malonates. For example, diethyl malonate is ethyl ester of malonic acid. As used herein, the term copper-zinc malonate applies to any salt substances formed from malonic acid having copper and zinc constituents.
Suitable ingredients for the formation of copper-zinc malonates include malonic acid, one or more bases of copper and zinc, and water. In an aqueous reaction solution, suitable salt forms provide copper and zinc cations capable of bonding to malonate anions. Other suitable ingredients for the formation of copper-zinc malonates will include the replacement of bases of copper and zinc with the metallic form of copper and zinc. The elemental form of copper and zinc are known as copper and zinc metals and will be dissolved in the acidic water media as they react with malonic acid.
One or more salts containing copper and zinc constituents are present in amounts that will contact malonic acid in an aqueous solution. Suitable salts for making copper-zinc malonate compositions in accordance with this disclosure include metal salts containing complex-forming metal ions of copper and/or zinc. Non-limiting examples of suitable metal salts are copper (I) and (II) salts such as copper chloride, copper bromide, copper fluoride, copper nitrate, copper fluoroborate, copper sulfate, copper acetate, copper trifluoro acetate, copper stearate, copper octoate, copper methacrylate, copper malonate, copper benzoate; zinc salts such as zinc bromide, zinc chromate, zinc chloride, zinc stearate, zinc octoate, and zinc ethylhexoate. In embodiments, the aqueous solution may include one or more metallic salts, such as cupric carbonate (CuCO3.Cu(OH)2), zinc carbonate (3Zn(OH)2.22nCO3), metallic :A 02821341 2013 06 11 copper, metallic zinc and combinations thereof. Basic salts such as basic zinc salts, basic copper salts, and combinations thereof are also suitable for use in accordance with the present disclosure. In embodiments, suitable metal basic salts are:
copper (I) and (II) salts such as copper carbonate, copper oxide, and copper hydroxide;
and zinc salts such as zinc carbonate, zinc oxide, and zinc hydroxide.
It should be understood that the listed salts are only a small portion of the salts suitable for use in accordance with the present disclosure. For example, inorganic salts are suitable provided that they provide copper and zinc cations when placed in an aqueous solution. Thus, the foregoing list of salts should be considered a non-limiting, illustrative list.
For carrying out the process, the reaction solution can be prepared by mixing the various ingredients in water where malonic acid and the salts may ionize and become more reactive. Water in the mixture is added in limited amounts sufficient to allow copper-zinc malonates to precipitate from solution upon formation.
Accordingly, the reaction mixture is not so dilute as to prevent product precipitate formation.
Where copper and zinc salts in the reaction mixture are insoluble and form dispersions (such as at cooler temperatures), mixing and heating steps can be applied to bring the reactants to 40 ¨ 100 C in order to force the reaction. As a result, reactant solubility may be enhanced through energy input such as microwave heating or addition of boiling water dissolver. The input of the energy may take place through any instrument capable of heating the aqueous reaction mixture. The copper-zinc malonate complexes formed in solution may be immediately separated so that their production can take place in a continuous process. Due to the short reaction time and :A 02821341 2013 06 11 the rapid crystallization of the copper-zinc malonate product, the conversion may be carried out continuously, and the recovery of the resultant solid product may take place by any conventional manner such as filtering, centrifugation, or sedimentation.
In the production of the reaction mixture, the concentration of the polyfunctional compound and that of the copper and zinc constituents may be pre-selected so that the total concentration of product formed exceeds the solubility equilibrium.
This will result in product precipitating from solution in solid form for easy collection.
In embodiments, the final composition may be a deep blue crystal having good yield and substantial crystalline purity. Suitable copper-zinc malonate forms in accordance with the present disclosure include any salt formed from the neutralization of malonic acid by one or more copper containing molecules and one or more zinc containing molecules. Illustrative examples include salt formed by the neutralization of malonic acid by cupric carbonate (CuCO3.Cu(OH)2), and zinc carbonate (3Zn(OH)22ZnCO3) in an aqueous solution. Here copper may be added first, followed by zinc in order to obtain the salts of the present disclosure.
In embodiments, the copper-zinc malonates may be one or more ionic compounds formed by joining one or more independent copper molecules or ions and one or more independent zinc molecules or ions to a central unit by ionic bonds. For example, the copper-zinc malonate may be in the form of a trinuclear cation, where structurally independent copper and zinc hydrates are bridged by a central unit such as an octahedral diaquadimalonatocopper (II) unit. However, various coordination modes are possible depending on the source of the copper and zinc and synthesis conditions. In embodiments, the central unit malonate ion may be a multi-membered :A 02821341 2013 06 11 ring such as eight-membered ring, six-membered ring, and four-membered metalocycle for bridging or chelating functions between the copper and zinc constituents. Accordingly, the crystal structures of copper-zinc malonates can be very diverse, from ionic to three-dimensional polymers. In embodiments, the copper-zinc malonates can be found in several hydrate, and polymorphic forms.
In embodiments, the process parameters are especially advantageous if the polyfunctional compound is added to excess in comparison to the metal counter cation constituents. Depending on the desired complex, the latter are added so that the molar ratio of polyfunctional compound to metal ions is approximately 3:2.

As an illustrative example, products can be formulated to contain copper-zinc malonate in amounts from about 0.001 to about 25 % by weight of the total composition. In embodiments, products can be formulated to contain copper-zinc malonate in an amount from about 0.05 to about 10 % by weight of the total composition. In other embodiments, the amount of copper-zinc malonate is from about 0.1 to about 5 % by weight of the total composition. Here, the copper-zinc malonate present may be in a pharmaceutically acceptable salt form. Other active ingredients may be provided in the formulations at the same concentrations.
The particular active ingredient or ingredients employed, and the concentration in the compositions, generally depends on the purpose for which the composition is to be applied. For example, the dosage and frequency of application can vary depending upon the type and severity of the anorectal disorder.
Similarly, the pH of the compositions may vary according to the form of the composition, the ingredients contained therein and the type of tissue the composition is contacting. In embodiments, the pH of the compositions may range from about 4.0 to about 10Ø In embodiments, the pH of the composition may range from about 4.5 to about 8.0 and in particularly useful embodiments, the pH of the composition may range from about 5.5 to about 6Ø
In particularly useful embodiments, the compositions may include the polymetal complex and at least one pharmaceutically active agent known to treat anorectal disorders.

It has also been discovered that the compositions which contain the polymetal complex are useful in causing varying levels of vasoconstriction. Such an effect may be useful in many anorectal disorders. Moreover, the vasoconstrictive effect of the present compositions decrease the rate at which the body is able to clear the composition by local blood supply, thereby allowing the composition to remain at the site of application longer which increases the rate and depth of tissue penetration of the composition. In embodiments, the compositions of the present application may be combined with other vasoconstrictive agents to further enhance the effect of the polymetal complex.

In embodiments, the compositions described herein may be incorporated into suppository formulations for anorectal administration. The polymetal complexes may be combined with any known suppository base material. Some examples of known suppository base materials include, but are not limited to, FattibaseTm (polyethylene glycol base), Vehicle-Sim (acrylic polymer resin base), and Polybaselm (polyethylene glycol base), cocoa butter, waxes, glycerinated gelatins, and hydrogenated vegetable oils. Such materials are readily available for preparing the present formulations and have desirable pH's, melting points, and preservatives.

isobutane, or fluorocarbons, e.g. dichlorodifluoromethane and dichlorotetrafluoroethane, or hydrochlorofluorocarbons or hydrofluorocarbons. As concerns the pharmaceutical formulation, rectal foams--compared with enemas--have a lower water content and contain propellants, which are indispensable for dispensing the dose of drug to be administered.
It is the presence of propellants that allows the dose dispensed at each release of the pressure valve--in case of multidose bottles--or on pressure release valve¨in case of single-dose bottles¨to spread out and reach the innermost areas of the anorectal region.
The propelling properties can vary depending on the type and quantity of propellant used and, consequently, the foam can reach more or less distant regions of the anorectal region.

While several embodiments of the disclosure have been described, it is not intended that the disclosure be limited thereto, as it is intended that the disclosure be as broad in scope as the art will allow and that the specification be read likewise.
Therefore, the above description should not be construed as limiting, but merely as exemplifications of embodiments. Those skilled in the art will envision other modifications within the scope and spirit of the claims appended hereto.

Thus, the foregoing list of salts should be considered a non-limiting, illustrative list.
:A 02821341 2013 06 11 For carrying out the process, a reaction solution can be prepared by mixing the various ingredients in water. Water in the mixture may advantageously be added in limited amounts sufficient to allow the reaction product to precipitate from solution upon formation. Accordingly, the reaction mixture is not so dilute as to prevent product precipitate formation. Where necessary, mixing and heating can be used to bring the reactants to 40 ¨ 100 C in order to force the reaction. As a result, reactant solubility may be enhanced through energy input such as microwave heating or addition of boiling water. The input of the energy may take place through any instrument capable of heating the aqueous reaction mixture. The reaction products formed in solution may be immediately separated so that their production can take place in a continuous process.

It has been found that where the malonic acid, copper and zinc constituents are present in at least about a 3:1:1 molar ratio, copper-zinc malonates may be produced in good yield and high crystalline purity.
MaIonic acid refers to 1,3-propanedioic acid, a dicarboxylic acid with structure CH2(COOH)2 or:
?H ?H
:A 02821341 2013 06 11 The ion form of malonic acid, as well as its esters and salts, are known as malonates. For example, diethyl malonate is ethyl ester of malonic acid. As used herein, the term copper-zinc malonate applies to any salt substances formed from malonic acid having copper and zinc constituents.
Suitable ingredients for the formation of copper-zinc malonates include malonic acid, one or more bases of copper and zinc, and water. In an aqueous reaction solution, suitable salt forms provide copper and zinc cations capable of bonding to malonate anions.

and zinc salts such as zinc carbonate, zinc oxide, and zinc hydroxide.
It should be understood that the listed salts are only a small portion of the salts suitable for use in accordance with the present disclosure. For example, inorganic salts are suitable provided that they provide copper and zinc cations when placed in an aqueous solution. Thus, the foregoing list of salts should be considered a non-limiting, illustrative list.
For carrying out the process, the reaction solution can be prepared by mixing the various ingredients in water where malonic acid and the salts may ionize and become more reactive. Water in the mixture is added in limited amounts sufficient to allow copper-zinc malonates to precipitate from solution upon formation.
Accordingly, the reaction mixture is not so dilute as to prevent product precipitate formation.
Where copper and zinc salts in the reaction mixture are insoluble and form dispersions (such as at cooler temperatures), mixing and heating steps can be applied to bring the reactants to 40 ¨ 100 C in order to force the reaction. As a result, reactant solubility may be enhanced through energy input such as microwave heating or addition of boiling water dissolver. The input of the energy may take place through any instrument capable of heating the aqueous reaction mixture. The copper-zinc malonate complexes formed in solution may be immediately separated so that their production can take place in a continuous process. Due to the short reaction time and :A 02821341 2013 06 11 the rapid crystallization of the copper-zinc malonate product, the conversion may be carried out continuously, and the recovery of the resultant solid product may take place by any conventional manner such as filtering, centrifugation, or sedimentation.
In the production of the reaction mixture, the concentration of the polyfunctional compound and that of the copper and zinc constituents may be pre-selected so that the total concentration of product formed exceeds the solubility equilibrium.
This will result in product precipitating from solution in solid form for easy collection.
In embodiments, the final composition may be a deep blue crystal having good yield and substantial crystalline purity. Suitable copper-zinc malonate forms in accordance with the present disclosure include any salt formed from the neutralization of malonic acid by one or more copper containing molecules and one or more zinc containing molecules.

In embodiments, the copper-zinc malonates may be one or more ionic compounds formed by joining one or more independent copper molecules or ions and one or more independent zinc molecules or ions to a central unit by ionic bonds. For example, the copper-zinc malonate may be in the form of a trinuclear cation, where structurally independent copper and zinc hydrates are bridged by a central unit such as an octahedral diaquadimalonatocopper (II) unit. However, various coordination modes are possible depending on the source of the copper and zinc and synthesis conditions.
