IP and IP analogs dosage regimens for the treatment of ectopic calcifications
The present disclosure related to compositions, methods, dosages, dosage regimens, articles of manufacture and kits for the treatment and/or prevention ectopic calcifications, and in particular cutaneous calcifications such as calciphylaxis calcifications comprising inositol phosphate, inositol phosphate analogs, inositol phosphate derivatives, or combinations thereof. In a particular aspect the disclosure provides a dosage regimen to treat calciphylaxis comprising the administration of 6 mg/kg to 9 mg/kg daily doses of myo-inositol hexaphosphate, three times a week, for at least 1 to 8 months.
1. A method to treat or inhibit the occurrence of critical limb ischemia and/or the consequences thereof in a subject comprising administering a dose of SNF472 (hexasodium salt of myo-inositol hexaphosphate) in a dosage of about 5 mg of SNF472 per kg per day to about 10 mg of SNF472 per kg per day to the subject for about 2,3,4,5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31 or 32 weeks, wherein the administration of the dosage effectively treats or inhibits the occurrence of critical limb ischemia and/or the consequences thereof in the subject.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein SNF472 is at least 90% pure.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein SNF472 is at least 95% pure.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein SNF472 is at least 99% pure.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the dosage is about 6 mg of SNF472 per kg per day to about 9 mg of SNF472 per kg per day.
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the dosage is about 7 mg of SNF472 per kg per day.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the dosage comprises a dose of about 300 mg to about 600 mg of SNF472.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the dosage comprises a dose of about 450 mg of SNF472.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the dose of SNF472 is formulated for injection.
10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the injection is an intravenous injection.
11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the intravenous injection is a bolus injection.
12. The method of claim 10 , wherein the intravenous injection is intravenous infusion.
13. The method of claim 1 , wherein the dosage is administered as a single daily dose or as multiple daily doses.
14. The method of claim 1 , wherein the dosage is administered between 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7 times per week.
15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the dosage is administered 3 times per week.
16. The method of claim 1 , wherein the dosage is administered for 12 weeks.
17. The method of claim 1 , wherein the dosage is administered 3 days per week for 12 weeks.
18. The method of claim 1 , wherein the administration of the dosage effectively treats critical limb ischemia and/or the consequences thereof in the subject by:
(i) reducing lesions as determined by the Bates-Jensen Wound Assessment tool;
(ii) improving lesion healing;
(iii) reducing pain;
(iv) improving global wound quality of life (QoL) as determined by using a validated wound-associated QoL questionnaire; or,
(v) a combination thereof.
19. The method of claim 18 , wherein reducing lesions comprises a reduction in the severity of the lesions, a reduction in the size of the lesions, and reduction in the duration of the lesions, or a combination thereof.
20. The method of claim 1 , wherein the consequences of the critical limb ischemia comprise a functional complication, pain, a trophic complication, an infection, or a combination thereof.
21. The method of claim 20 , wherein the functional complication is a limitation of range of motion and/or joint function.
22. The method of claim 20 , wherein the trophic complication is a lesion.
23. The method of claim 22 , wherein the lesion is necrosis of the cutaneous and/or subcutaneous tissues.
24. The method of claim 1 , wherein the subject has end-stage renal disease and/or is on hemodialysis.
25. The method of claim 1 , wherein the administration of the dosage to the subject inhibits the formation and/or growth of hydroxyapatite crystals.
26. The method of claim 1 , wherein the consequences comprise intermittent claudication.
