Definitions

  • the present invention relates to novel tetrahydrocurcumin (THCu) compositions, novel methods of manufacturing, and methods of using these compositions for therapeutic applications.
  • THCu tetrahydrocurcumin
  • THCu is a major metabolite of the curcuminoid, curcumin and can be used for its anti-fibrotic and anti-oxidant activities.
  • THCu is a strong anti-oxidative molecule, and can be obtained by the hydrogenation of curcumin.
  • THCu can be used as an anti-oxidant in oxidative stress diseases.
  • THCu is relatively safe at high dosages (80 mgs/kg body weight)
  • one of the major disadvantages of THCu is its low solubility, in which it has poor solubility in water at acidic and at physiological pH. Another disadvantage is its ability to hydrolyze rapidly in basic solutions.
  • U.S. Pat. 9,375,408 issued June 28, 2016, to Dr. Bhupinder Singh describes the production of THCu through hydrogenation of curcumin.
  • the '408 patent discloses that THCu is poorly absorbed and is rapidly metabolized.
  • the '408 patent discloses the deuteration of THCu. Deuteration at one or two alcohol sites of THCu can delay glucuronidation, thus improving the half-life of THCu.
  • the present invention involves a pharmaceutical formulation comprising tetrahydrocurcumin (THCu) and lacking detectable amounts of HHC.
  • the invention involves a pharmaceutical formulation comprising a second component having a relative retention time between that of THCu and HHC.
  • the THCu composition includes only one component with a retention time that is greater than that of THCu.
  • the present invention involves pharmaceutical formulations comprising the above THCu composition combined with a liposome carrier composition.
  • the liposome carrier comprises a first lipid, wherein the first lipid is polyenylphosphatidylcholine.
  • the composition comprises at least 5% of the polyenylphosphatidylcholine by weight and no more than 95% of the polyenylphosphatidylcholine by weight.
  • the formulation may further comprise an antioxidant selected from Vitamin E, Vitamin C or alpha lipoic acid.
  • the composition in another aspect may comprise at least 5% of antioxidant by weight and no more than 95% of the antioxidant by weight.
  • the composition may comprise an excipient, wherein the excipient is a sugar, lactose, sucrose, mannitol, sorbitol, cellulose preparations of maize starch, wheat starch, rice starch, potato starch, gelatin, gum tragacanth, methyl cellulose, hydroxypropylmethyl-cellulose, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, and/or polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP).
  • the composition may alternatively or, in addition, further comprise a lipophilic solvent, a fatty oil, or an organic oil.
  • the invention also relates to a method of treating or preventing a disorder, wherein the method comprises administering the pharmaceutical formulation of any of the foregoing claims to a patient in need thereof.
  • the disorder is selected from kidney disease, chronic kidney disease, and polycystic kidney disease.

  • THCu THCu
  • Ferulic acid (1) is abundantly available from plants and is a very cheap source of raw material. Reduction of ferulic acid followed by protection of the phenol with benzoate results in 3 in high yields. From the acid chloride of 3 we can make the 8-ketoester 5, which on further alkylation with another molecule of the acid chloride results in 6. More experiments are needed to optimize the conversion of acid chloride to 6. Krapcho deethoxycarbonylation followed by the hydrolysis of benzoate results in THCu according to the scheme shown in Fig 1.
