Abstract
Cenicriviroc (CVC) is an orally active antagonist of ligand binding to C-C chemokine receptor type 5 (CCR5) and C-C chemokine receptor type 2 (CCR2). CVC blocks the binding of RANTES, MIP-1α, and MIP-1β to CCR5, and of MCP-1/CCL2 to CCR2. Methods of treating fibrosis and related conditions comprising co-administration of CVC with FXR agonists, high dose vitamin E (>400 iU/d), a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPAR-α) agonist, PPAR-γ agonist, PPAR-δ agonist and/or chemokine antagonists are provided herein.
Claims44
A method of treating fibrosis or a fibrotic disease or condition in a subject in need thereof comprising co-administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of cenicriviroc or a salt or solvate thereof;
- and one or more additional active agents.
A method of treating NASH in a subject in need thereof comprising co-administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of cenicriviroc, or a salt or solvate thereof;
- wherein the NASH is associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM);
- and one or more additional active agents.
A method of treating NASH in a subject in need thereof comprising co-administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of cenicriviroc, or a salt or solvate thereof;
- wherein the NASH is associated with metabolic syndrome (MS);
- and one or more additional active agents.
A method of treating NASH in a subject in need thereof comprising co-administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of cenicriviroc, or a salt or solvate thereof;
- and one or more additional active agents;
- wherein the NASH is associated with HIV and HCV co-infection.
The method of any of the preceding claims, wherein the cenicriviroc or salt or solvate thereof is formulated as an oral composition.
The method of any of the preceding claims, wherein the cenicriviroc or salt or solvate thereof is administered once per day or twice per day.
The method of any of the preceding claims, wherein the co-administration comprises simultaneous administration, sequential administration, overlapping administration, interval administration, continuous administration, or a combination thereof.
The method of any of the preceding claims, wherein the co-administration comprises oral administration, parenteral administration, or a combination thereof.
The method of any of the preceding claims, wherein the co-administration comprises one or more treatment cycles, and each treatment cycle comprises about 28 days.
The method of any of the preceding claims, wherein the co-administration comprises simultaneous administration.
The method of any of the preceding claims, comprising detecting a level of one or more biological molecules in the subject treated for fibrosis or the fibrotic disease or condition, and determining a treatment regimen based on an increase or decrease in the level of one or more biological molecules, wherein the biological molecule is selected from the group consisting of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), LPs-binding protein (LBP), 16S rDNA, sCD14, intestinal fatty acid binding protein (I-FABP), zonulin-1, Collagen 1a1 and 3a1, TGF-β, fibronectin-1, hs-CRP, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-33, fibrinogen, MCP-1, MIP- 1α and -1β, RANTES, sCD163, TGF-β, TNG-α, a biomarker of hepatocyte apoptosis such as CK-18 (caspase-cleaved and total), and a combination thereof.
The method of any of the preceding claims, comprising detecting a level of one or biological molecules in the subject treated for fibrosis or the fibrotic disease or condition, wherein an increase or decrease in the level of one or more biological molecules compared to a predetermined standard level is predictive of the treatment efficacy of fibrosis or the fibrotic disease or condition, wherein the biological molecule is selected from the group consisting of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), LPs-binding protein (LBP), 16S rDNA, sCD14, intestinal fatty acid binding protein (I-FABP), zonulin-1, Collagen 1a1 and 3a1, TGF-β, fibronectin-1, hs-CRP, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-33, fibrinogen, MCP-1, MIP- 1α and -1β, RANTES, sCD163, TGF-β, TNG-α, a biomarker of hepatocyte apoptosis such as CK-18 (caspase-cleaved and total), and a combination thereof.
The method of claim 34, where the biological sample is selected from blood, skin, hair follicles, saliva, oral mucous, vaginal mucous, sweat, tears, epithelial tissues, urine, semen, seminal fluid, seminal plasma, prostatic fluid, pre-ejaculatory fluid (Cowper's fluid), excreta, biopsy, ascites, cerebrospinal fluid, lymph, brain, and tissue extract sample or biopsy sample.
A pharmaceutical composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of cenicriviroc, or a salt or solvate thereof;
- and one or more additional active agents.
A combination package comprising
- (a) at least one individual dose of cenicriviroc, or a salt or solvate thereof;
- and
- (b) at least one individual dose of one or more additional active agent.
A method of distributing an antifibrotic agent comprising distributing to a subject a predetermined amount of a first pharmaceutical composition comprising cenicriviroc, or a salt or solvate thereof, in combination with a predetermined amount of a second pharmaceutical composition comprising at least one or more active agents.
A method of distributing an antifibrotic agent comprising distributing to a subject a predetermined amount of a first pharmaceutical composition comprising cenicriviroc, or a salt or solvate thereof, in combination with an instruction of administering the first pharmaceutical composition with a predetermined amount of a second pharmaceutical composition comprising at least one or more active agents.
The use of co-administration of a therapeutically effective amount of cenicriviroc, or a salt or solvate thereof, and one or more additional active agents for treating fibrosis or a fibrotic disease or condition in a subject in need thereof.
The use of co-administration of a therapeutically effective amount of cenicriviroc or a salt or solvate thereof, and one or more additional active agents for treating NASH associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in a subject in need thereof.
The use of co-administration of a predetermined amount of a first pharmaceutical composition comprising cenicriviroc or a salt or solvate thereof, in combination with a predetermined amount of a second pharmaceutical composition comprising at least one or more active agents for distributing an antifibrotic agent in a subject.
The use of co-administration of a predetermined amount of a first pharmaceutical composition comprising cenicriviroc, or a salt or solvate thereof, in combination with an instruction of administering the first pharmaceutical composition with a predetermined amount of a second pharmaceutical composition comprising at least one or more active agents for distributing an antifibrotic agent in a subject.
