Benefits of technology

The patent describes the discovery of halogenated salicylanilides, specifically closanthel, rafoxanide, oxyclozanide, and niclosamide, which are effective at treating infections caused by Gram-positive bacteria, such as staphylococcus and streptococcus. These compounds are also effective in reducing the development of resistance bacteria. The patent explores the potential use of these compounds in treating various diseases or infections, including those caused by MRSA. The halogenated salicylanilides can be applied topically to the affected area to decolonize the subject and prevent the spread of infection. Overall, the patent provides a valuable resource for developing new treatments for Gram-positive bacterial infections.

Problems solved by technology

Many bacteria are resistant to, or rapidly develop, resistance against antibiotic agents and thus it is undesirable or ineffective to treat a mammal suffering from a topical bacterial disease or infection caused by bacteria that are resistant to the antibiotics.

example 1

[0147]Experimental tests were conducted to determine the antibacterial activity and the mutation rate conferring resistance for halogenated salicylanilides and reference compounds.

Microorganisms

[0148]Chosen for its relevance regarding bacterial skin infections, the methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) 01 strain was used as the primary test microorganism. This strain is a community-acquired MRSA clinical isolate of USA 300 type, from a skin abscess.

[0149]Twenty-one other MRSA and methicillin-sensitive S. aureus strains, and 4 Streptococcus pyogenes strains, were also included in the study (Table 1). These covered fusidic acid- and mupirocin-resistant strains, these two types of resistance being of clinical relevance.

[0150]Strains were conserved in Luria Bertani (LB) Broth (S. aureus) or Brain Heart Infusion (BHI) (S. pyogenes) supplemented with glycerol 15% (v / v) at −80° C., and reactivated by isolation on LB (S. aureus) or BHI (S. pyogenes) agar plates. Strains were cultivated in ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a halogenated salicylanilide selected from closantel, rafoxanide, oxyclozanide and niclosamide and derivatives thereof including salts, hydrates, esters and the like for use in the topical treatment or prevention of infections caused by Gram-positive bacteria such as Staphylococcus, in particular Staphylococcus aureus, and Streptococcus, in particular Streptococcus pyogenes. Gram positive bacteria treated with the halogenated salicylanilides exhibit a very low frequency of appearance of resistant mutants compared to commonly used topical antibiotics.

Description

FIELD OF INVENTION[0001]The invention relates to the halogenated salicylanilides closantel, rafoxanide, oxyclozanide or niclosamide and derivatives thereof including salts, hydrates, esters for use in the topical treatment or prevention of conditions caused by Gram positive bacteria such as Staphylococcus, in particular Staphylococcus aureus, and Streptococcus, in particular Streptococcus pyogenes. The halogenated salicylanilides have a surprisingly low frequency of appearance of resistant mutants in said strains compared to commonly used topical antibiotics. Also provided are topical formulations comprising a halogenated salicylanilide.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Today, there are many different classes of antibiotics available to medical practitioners. However, many of the bacteria that these antibiotics are designed to treat are quickly developing resistance to drugs in all classes. Unfortunately the large pharmaceutical companies have limited there research in finding new an...
