Definitions

  • TECHNICAL FIELD The invention relates to probiotic bacteria and compositions comprising same for preventing and/or treating and/or managing the symptoms of psoriasis and related disorders.
  • BACKGROUND Any discussion of the prior art throughout the specification should in no way be considered as an admission that such prior art is widely known or forms part of common general knowledge in the field.
  • Psoriasis is a chronic, recurrent and non life-threatening condition characterized by scaling and inflammation that in many cases requires continuous treatment.
  • the most common form of psoriasis is characterized by swollen red skin lesions with a silvery white scale (plaques). 80-90% of people with psoriasis have this type. On the surface, psoriasis appears to be a skin disease.
  • Psoriasis affects about 2% of the world's population (ranging from 0.5% in Japan up to 2.5% in Scandinavia). According to the NIH, psoriasis affects approximately 5 million people in the USA. The gene frequency of psoriasis has been found to vary widely among different ethnic groups. Between 150,000 and 260,000 new cases of psoriasis occur each year in the US. The growth of the prevalence of psoriasis is expected to be parallel to the general growth of the population. According to the NLH, psoriasis is associated with 2.4 million visits to dermatologists per year in the US. Overall, annual outpatient costs are estimated at $1.6 to $3.2 billion. Most severely affected patients may be hospitalised for long periods.
  • psoriasis patients receive topical treatments while 20-30% receive phototherapy, systemic treatments or both.
  • Current topical treatments include emollients, coal tar, Anthralin, corticosteroids and Vitamin A and D derivatives such as Daivonex, Dovonex or tazarotene.
  • these topical treatments can have disadvantages, for example, the disadvantages of coal tar include odour and staining, irritation and photosensitivity.
  • Anthralin topical medication can be irritating to the skin, and it has the tendency to stain anything it touches.
  • Corticosteroids are generally effective at treating the inflammation that occurs with psoriasis but common side effects can include thinning of the skin, easy bruising and stretch marks.
  • Vitamin D derivatives Daivonex, or Dovonex have been recognised as effective and safe for long-term control of psoriasis, with few side effects but are often prescribed in combination with other therapies, e.g. steroids and UVB.
  • Vitamin A derivatives such as the retinoic acid receptor agonist or tazarotene can cause skin irritation.
  • Phototherapy involving UV light is often used in moderate-to-severe cases. It involves the use of either UVA or UVB light exposure to the affected skin.
  • UVA therapy is usually done in conjunction with methoxalen (PUVA), a photosensitising drug.
  • Systemic medications such as Methotrexate, Cyclosporin or Oral retinoids such as Soriatane or acitretin are effective in the management of moderate to severe psoriasis but are associated with organ toxicity and birth defects requiring careful monitoring. As a result, systemic drugs are usually prescribed after safer topical and light therapy treatments have failed or have been poorly tolerated.
  • probiotic bacteria provide such a safe and effective alternative for the prevention and/or treatment of psoriasis and related disorders.
  • a method for preventing and/or treating and/or managing psoriasis, a related disorder and/or symptoms thereof comprising the step of administering a probiotic bacterium, to a subject in need of such treatment.
  • the bacterium is a Lactobacillus, a Bifidobacterium, a Lactococcus or an Enterococcus. More preferably, the bacterium is a lactic acid bacterium and even more preferably it is a Lactobacillus species.
  • the preferred species is Lactobacillus fermentum.

  • Other preferred probiotic bacteria are Lactobacillus casei and Bifidobacterium lactis. It will be understood that any combination of two or more probiotic bacteria may also be used.
  • the probiotic is part of a composition, such as for example a food preparation, food supplement or a pharmaceutical preparation (e.g. tablets, capsules, powders, liquid formulations, creams, lotions and the like).
  • the composition comprises live cells of the probiotic bacteria.
  • the composition may also comprise dead cells of the probiotic bacteria.
  • the probiotic bacterium can be advantageously combined with other compounds such as prebiotics, non-digestible dietary components, dietary fibre or pharmaceutically active compounds.
  • the prebiotic comprises or consists of inulin, a resistant starch, an oligosaccharide, a gum or a beta-glucan.
  • the prebiotic is an unmodified high amylose maize starch or a beta-glucan.
  • the composition can be prepared as a tablet, capsule, powder, gel, paste, liquid formulation, dietary supplement, a food product, cream or a lotion and the like.
  • the composition is prepared in a tablet or capsule form.
  • the terms "subject” and “individual” are used interchangeably in this specification and in the context of the present invention include within their scope any mammal which can develop, or already has psoriasis or a related disorder.
  • the preferred subjects for administration of the treatment of the present invention are humans, domestic pets and farm animals.
  • the required dosage amount will vary according to the severity of the condition to be treated, the cause of the condition, age of the subject and other standard clinical parameters which can be easily determined by routine procedures within the skill set of those skilled in the art.
  • the probiotic bacterium or the composition comprising said bacterium may be administered by any known means but preferably it is administered orally or topically.
  • the probiotic bacterium, or the composition comprising said bacterium may be administered in conjunction with one or more other pharmaceutically active agents.
  • the probiotic bacterium, or the composition comprising said bacterium may be administered simultaneously (co-administered) with the other treatments or it may be administered sequentially in any order. It is preferred that the bacterium or a composition comprising it, be administered daily. It can be administered several times per day, or it may be administered infrequently or discontinuously (for example every second or third day), depending on the progress of treatment of the condition in question, its cause and severity. These parameters can also be easily determined by those skilled in the art.

  • Example 1 Origin and Identification of VRI 003
  • the Lactobacillus fermentum VRI 003 variant was isolated from a healthy human subject. In a series of laboratory experiments, the VRI 003 variant was found to adhere to the gastrointestinal epithelial tissue. It was also shown to have a demonstrable effect on human gastrointestinal pathogens, and was resistant to bile acids. The VRI 003 variant also survived in a low pH environment and was resistant to pepsin and to nutrient limited conditions. The bacterial variant VRI 003 was cultured on Rogosa agar (Oxoid) Plates and incubated at 37°C in an anaerobic chamber for 24 hours.
  • Rogosa agar Oxoid
  • the strain was purified by successive transfers on MRS agar (Oxoid) plates incubated at 37°C in an anaerobic chamber for 24 hours and the final culture stored at -70°C in 20% glycerol by subculturing in MRS broth at 37°C for 24 hours in anaerobic conditions prior to the addition of glycerol to the culture broth.
  • the culture is also stored as a freeze dried preparation in glass vials.
  • Variant VRI 003 was a catalase negative, Gram positive rod which produced gas when grown anaerobically on brain heart infusion (BHI) (Oxoid) broth containing glucose. It was broadly identified therefore as a heterofermentative lactobacillus and confirmed to be L.
  • fermentum strain according to the API carbohydrate kit (50 CHL kit; Biomerieux; supplier data base and database with a certainty of 99.9%.
  • sugars 5, 10, 11, 12, 13, 25, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32 and 25 are utilized by strain VRI 003.
  • the cell is a short rod, Gram positive and consistent with the description of the morphology of Lactobacillus fermentum.
  • Lactobacillus fermentum strain VRI 003 was deposited under the provision of the Budapest Treaty, at the Australian Government Analytical Laboratories, PO Box 385 Pymble 2073, NSW, Australia, on 27 August 2002 and the deposit was allocated the accession number NM02/31074.
  • Lactobacillus fermentum strain VRI-002 was isolated from a faecal sample from a healthy Swedish female 30-35 years old. The woman had a history of resistance to diarrhoea induced by food poisoning organisms and traveller's diarrhoea. The strain represented one of the dominant lactobaciUi (about log 8 per gram wet wt faeces) when an homogenate of the fresh faecal sample was inoculated onto Rogosa agar and incubated anaerobically at 37°C.
  • the strain was purified by successive transfers on MRS agar and the final culture stored at -70°C in 20% glycerol and subsequently freeze dried. It was identified as a catalase negative, Gram-positive rod which produced gas when grown anaerobically on brain heart infusion broth (BHI) containing glucose. It was therefore heterofermentative and confirmed to be Lactobacillus fermentum according to the API carbohydrate kit and database with a certainty of 99.9%. The sequence of the 16s rRNA was consistent with the database for Lactobacillus fermentum.
  • VRI-002 was deposited with Australian Government Analytical Laboratories, AGAL, of PO Box 385, Pymble NSW 2073, Australia, on 12 December 2002 and given the accession number NM02/32959.
  • Example 3 Culture and Formulations (i) Growth of the culture Lactobacillus fermentum variant VRI 003 is grown in a fermentation vessel at 37 DC. The vessel is then cooled and the fermentation broth concentrated, preferably by centrifugation. The collected culture is dried, preferably by freeze-drying and subsequently milled. The milled material is then blended with the major excipient to give the desired level of microbes per gram of dry material. The level to be used is dependent on the application (range up to log 11 per gram). The standardised material is then used in the formulation by mixing all ingredients in a blender (preferably a V- blender).
  • a blender preferably a V- blender
  • Formulations (a) Formulation A: High amylose maize based (symbiotic formulation) Lactobacillus fermentum VRI 003 lOOmg Hi-maize 958 (or 1043) 170 mg Stearic acid up to 4.5mg Silica dioxide up to 4.5mg (b) Formulation B: Microcrystalline cellulose (MCC based) Lactobacillus fermentum VRI 003 lOOmg Avicell Ph 112 (or relevant equivalent) 170mg Stearic acid up to 4.5mg Silica dioxide up to 4.5mg (c) Formulation C: Either the High amylase maize base or the MCC based as described in A and B, with colloidal silica (up to 4.5mg) instead of silica dioxide or with silica dioxide as well (up to 4.5mg).
  • VRI 003 One of the desired characteristics for VRI 003 is that it remains viable and has the capacity to grow within the human gastrointestinal tract after dosage. As outlined above this characteristic was one of the selection criteria for a desirable strain. However, this is not necessarily essential for the desired beneficial effects. An additional consideration in this regard is that even though the strain has the capacity to survive the various conditions within the tract, the strain must retain viability and desired strain characteristics when grown on a large scale and dispensed in a product form. The following is an analysis of the viability and strain characteristics of VRI 003 after large scale culture and freeze-drying, as well as after encapsulation in gelatin capsules.
  • Example 4 Reduction in symptoms of psoriasis with oral dosage of Lactobacillus fermentum VRI 003
  • Case Study 1 A 37 year old male had been suffering from medically-diagnosed psoriasis for the past 20 years. The following courses of treatment have been tried: tar-based treatment, PUVA light treatment, Chinese medicines and acupuncture and zinc-based treatments. The skin appeared red and scaly dry and the affected areas were well-distributed all over the body. Prior to commencing the study, the subject was not using any other medication but only applied moisturiser on the affected areas. Treatment with L. fermentum VRI 003 commenced with 3 capsules in the morning with food and 3 capsules in the evening with food for 4 weeks of a daily basis.
  • Each capsule contained 4.2 x 10 10 cfu.
  • symptoms associated with psoriasis improved associated allergy reduced and the skin was less red and less dry, discomfort associated with psoriasis had decreased considerably, itchiness had reduced and the areas affected significantly reduced to a minimum.
  • the subject reported a significant improvement on his quality of life.
  • Case Study 2 A 28 year old female has been suffering from medically-diagnosed psoriasis. This condition had persisted for 16 years and had been severe. Symptoms included red, dry and sore skin. Thick, scaly patches were spread all over the legs, stomach, back, arms and scalp. Previously, steroid creams have been tried. Treatment with L.
  • fermentum VRI 003 commenced with 3 capsules in the morning with food and 3 capsules in the evening with food for 4 weeks on a daily basis. Each capsule contains 4.2 x 10 10 cfu. No other medication was being used prior to taking L. fermentum VRI 003. Improvement in the following areas has been reported: inflammation, texture (less scaling), appearance (less red), and itchiness. An overall improvement on the subject's quality of life was also reported.
  • Case Study 3 Dandruff A 50 year old male who had suffered for over 30 years with dandruff which was managed using regular use of a dandruff shampoo, took 10 11 cfu freeze dried powdered L fermentum VRI 003 with breakfast each day in a glass of milk for one week and has been symptom free for the last 14 months.
  • Case Study 4 Scalp Psoriasis A 45-55 year old male had suffered scalp psoriasis for many years and took 3 capsules with food in the morning and the evening (each capsule contained 4.2 x 10 10 cfu) for 4 weeks. Itchiness had eased considerably and the condition is clearing. Extended treatment and/or a higher dose could be recommended for greater improvement in a shorter time.
  • Example 5 Reduction of symptoms of psoriasis with oral dosage of L. fermentum
  • Case Study No. 1 A 24-year old female presented with mild psoriasis in the form of dry, coarse, red and itchy plaques. Treatment over several years included UVB, UVA, cyclosporin and acupuncture. The subject was not taking any medication prior to taking probiotics. Treatment with L. fermentum VRI 002 commenced with 3 capsules in the morning and 3 capsules at night with food (each capsule contained approximately 2.45 xlO 10 CFU). Following 3 weeks of treatment, the subject reported improvement of the following symptoms associated with psoriasis: flaking had thinned, plaques appeared less red, skin was less dry and scaly and the size of the patches had likewise decreased.
  • L. fermentum VRI 002 Treatment with L. fermentum VRI 002 commenced with 3 capsules in the morning with food and 3 capsules in the evening with food (each capsule contained approximately 2.45 xlO 10 CFU). After 2 and a half weeks of taking L. fermentum VRI 002, the skin had dramatically improved: patches decreased in size and thickness, redness was decreased and the subject's energy levels started to rise. These improvements persisted even after 2 weeks of not taking L. fermentum VRI 002. The subject reported improvement of his skin condition without any side effects unlike previous psoriasis treatment.
  • Case Study No.3 A 33-year old male presented with medically-diagnosed psoriasis for the past 16 years. Symptoms include round, white, scaly patches itching severely. Dryness also causes bleeding occasionally. Previous treatment with steroid-based creams and UV therapy were tried. Treatment at presentation include Exorex cream. Treatment with L. fermentum VRI 002 commenced with 3 capsules in the morning with food and 3 capsules in the evening with food (each capsule contained approximately 2.45 xlO 10 CFU). After two weeks of daily taking L. fermentum VRI 002, the flaking pattern has slowed down, patches appeared pink instead of red, inflammation has decreased, dryness and scaling has been considerably decreased and itching had been minimised.
  • Example 6 Effect of Different Strains of Probiotics in Improving the Symptoms of Psoriais
  • the strains used were L. casei VRI 004 and Bifidobacterium lactis VRI 201. These strains are sourced from the University of New South Wales, Microbiology Culture Collection, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. These strains were given daily for four weeks at a dose of:
  • the degree of severity of psoriasis was measured using a self-reported questionnaire. The following symptoms; texture of skin, size of the patches, degree of inflammation, itchiness and the effect on the quality of life were scored weekly. A score of 1 equated to improvement of the condition while a score of 10 indicated worsening of the symptoms. An absence of noticeable change on the affected area or quality of life gave a score of 0.
  • psoriasis patches started to clear up and inflammation subsided considerably. Consequently, the skin began to flake off and formation of normal skin cells was observed. Supplementation of B. lactis markedly reduced inflammation from affected areas. The reduction in inflammation correlated directly with the degree of itchiness experienced by the volunteer.
