WO 93/07892 2 ~ 2 0 3 3 7 PCT/US92/08823
such as lincomycin; clindamycin; and chloramphenirol; etc.;

Peptide antibiotics which are not ion channel-forming
peptides or proteins which may be employed include, but are not
limited to, a bacitracin; gramacidin S; polymyxin; vancomycin;

thereof.
The biologically active amphiphilic peptideq employed in the
present invention are generally water soluble to a concentration
of at least 20 mg/ml at neutral pH in water. In addition, the
structure of such peptide provides for flexibility of the peptide
molecule. When the peptide i~ placed in wa~er, it does not
assume an amphiphilic structure. When the p~ptide encoun~ers an
oily surface or membrane, the peptide chain fold~ upon itself
into a rod-like or alpha-helical structure.
In general, such peptides ha~e at lea~t 11 amino acids, and
preferably at least 20 amino acid~. In most ca~es, such peptides
do not have in excess of 50 amino acids.
In general, the biolo~ically active peptides or proteins~
employed in the present in~ention are ion cha~nel-forming
peptides or proteins. An ion channel-orming peptide or protein
or ionophore is a peptide or protein which increa~es the
permeability for ions across a natural or synthetic lipid
membrane. B. Christensen et al. PNAS ~ol. 85 P. 5072-76 (July,
1988~ describes methodology which indicates whether or not a
pep~ide or; protein has ion channel~forming prop~rties and is
therefore an ionophore. As used herein an ion channel-forming
peptide or protein is a peptide or protein which has ion
channel-forming properties as determined by the method of
Christensen et al.

WO 93/0?892 PCT/US92/08823
212~3~7
An amphiphilic peptide or protein is a peptide which
includes both hydrophobic and hydrophilic peptide regions.
Although the biologically active amphiphilic (amphipathic)
ion channel-forming peptides or proteins are capable of forming
ion channels, the ability of such peptides or proteins and the
above-mentioned a~,tibiotics to potentiate each other is not
necessarily dependent upon the antibiotic crossing a membrane
through such channels. Thus, although the ability to form ion
channels may be a characteristic of a type of peptide or protein
used in the invention, the invention is not limited to the
formation and/or use of such channels as part of the mechani~m
for the peptide or protein potentiating the antibiotic or vice
versa. Similarly, although Applicant believes that such peptides
or proteins interact with the membrane of bacterial cells and
such interaction is the mechanism by which the antib.~.otic
potentiates the peptide or protein and vice versa, the pre~sent
invention is not limited to such a mechanism.
The term "potentiate", as used herein, means either that the
biologically active amphiphilic peptide or protcin is e~fective
in increasing the biological activity of the above-mentioned
antibiotics against a target cell so thereby the antibiotic may
be employed in an amount lower than that which would be requi~ed
for preven~ing, destroying or inhibiting growth of a tar~et cell,
and/or that the peptide or protein may be employed in~an amount
lower than that which would be required for preventing,
destroying, or inhibiting growth of a target c~llo
The administration of the biologically active amphiphilic
peptides or proteins and antibiotic to a target cell may be
direct administration to the cell or ~ystemic or topical
administration to a host which includes the target cell, in order
to prevent, destroy, or inhibit the growth of a target cell.
Target cells whose growth may be prevented, inhibited, or
destroyed by the administration of the biolog~cally active

W093/07892 2 ~ ~ 0 3 3 7 PCT/US92/OW23
amphiphilic peptide or protein and antibiotic include
Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.
For example, erythromycin, when employed without the
above-mentioned peptides, is effective only against Gram-positive
organisms. Applicants have found unexpec~edly that erythromycin,
when employed in combination with the above-mentioned peptides or
proteins, is potentiated such that it becomes biolcgically
effective against Gram-negative bacteria. Moreover, the
erythromycin may be employed against Gram-positive bacteria in
amounts lower than tho~e normally used. Furthermore, such a
res~lt can be achieved by using peptide or protein amounts lower
tha~ those normally used.
The peptides or proteins employed in the present invention
are capable of interacting selectively with membranes of
bacteria.
In general, the peptide or protein is employed to provide
peptide dosages of from 1 mg to 500 mg per kilogram of host
weight, when administered systemically. When administered
topically, the peptide or protein is used in a concentration of
from 0.1% to 10%.
The antibiotic, such as those hereinabove described, or
derivatives or analogues thexeof, when used topically, is
generally employed in a concentration of about 0.1% to about 10%.
When used systemically, the anti~iotic or derivative or analogue
thereof is generally employed in an amount of from O.lmg to about
45mg per kg of host weight per day.
The use of a combination of peptide or protein and an
antibiotic such as those hereina~ove described, or derivatives or
analogues thereof in a~cordance with the present invention is
effective as an antibiotic, and may be employed to inhibit,
prevent or destroy the growth or proliferation of microbes, such
as bacteria.
The compositions have a broad range of poterlt antibiotic
activity against a plurality of microorganisms, including

WO ~3/07892 PCT/US92/08823
212~33~ ~
Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Such compositions may
be employed for treating or controlling microbial infection
caused by organisms which are sensitive to such composition. The
treatment may comprise administering to a host organism or
tissues acceptable to or affiliated with a microbial infection an
anti-microbial amount of such peptide or protein and an
antibiotic.
The compositions may also be used as preservatives or
sterilants for materials susceptible to microbial contamination.
In accordance with a preferred embodiment, the peptide used
in conjunction with an antibiotic such as those hereinabo~e
described, or derivatives or analo~es t~ercof i8 a basic
(positively charged) polypeptide having at least sixteen amino
acids wherein the polypeptide includes at least eight hydrophobic
amino acids a~d at least eight hydrophilic amino acids. Still
more particularly, the hydrophobic amino acids are in groups o
two adjacent amino acids, and each group of two hydrophobic amino
acids i8 spaced from another group of two hydrophobic amino acids
by at least one amino acid other than a hydrophobic amino acid
(preferably at least two amino acids) and generally by no greater

hydrophobic amino acids may or may not be hydrophilic.
The hydrophilic amino acids are generally also in groups of
two adja~ent amino acids in which at lea~t one of ~he~two amino
acids is a basic hydrophilic amino acid, with ~uch groups of two
hydrophilic amino acids being ~paced from each other ~y at least
one amino acid other than a hydrophilic amino acid (preferably at
least two amino acids) and ~enerally no greater than four amino
acids, and the amino acids between pairs of hydrophilic amino
~cids may or may not be hydropho~ic.

the four amino acids in each group are hydrophobic amino acids,

WO ~3/07892 2 1 2 0 3 3 7 PCT/US92/08823
and two of the four amino acids in each group are hydrophilic,
with at least one of the hydrophilic amino acids in each group
being a basic hydrophilic amino acid and the other beinq a basic
or neutral hydrophilic amino acid.
The hydrophobic amino acids may be selected from the class
consisting of Ala, Cys, Phe, Gly, Ile, Leu, Met, Val, Trp, Tyr,

Each of the groups of four amino acids may be of the
seguence ABCD, BCDA, CDA~, or DABC, wherein A and 8 are each
hydrophobic amino acids and may be the same or different, one of
C or D is a basic hydrophilic amino acid, and the other of C or D
is a basic or neutral hydrophilic amino acid and may be the same
or different. In a preferred embodiment, the polypeptide chain
may comprise 5 or 6 groups of one or more of the~e ~equences. In
each group, each of A, B, C and D may be the Jame in ~ome or all
of the groups or may be different in some cr all of the groups.
The polypeptide chain preferably has at least 16 amino
acids, and ~o greater than 50 amino acids. It is to be

consist entirely of the groups described abo~e. The polypeptide
may have amino acids extendirlg rom either or both end~ of the
noted groups fo~ming the polypeptide chain and/or there may be
amino acids between one or more of ~he at le~st four groups and
still remain within the scope of the invention.
The groups of amino acids may be repe~t1 ng groups of amino
acids, or the amino acids in the various groups may vary provided
that in each group of the at least four groups of amino acids
there are two hydrophobic and two hydrophilic amino acids as
hereinabove noted.

The above r~sùlts indicate that when one of the biologically
active ion-channel forming peptides hereinabove described is
added in combination with bacitracin, tobramycin, gen~amicin,,
benzyl penicill~n, ampicillin, or aztreonam, in an amount of 20%
of the MIC of these antibiotics, against S.aureus, E.coli, or

WO 93/07X92 2 1 2 ~ 3 3 7 PCT/US92/08823

P.aeruqinosa, there is, in most cases, a resulting synergy
between the peptide and the antibiotic. In most cases, less
peptide and less antibiotic may be used against these organisms
when peptide and antibiotic are employed in combination, than if
peptide or antibiotic alone were employed.
Exam~le 6
In this example, the effect of a combination of erythromycin
and biologically active amphiphilic ion channel-forming peptide
will be measured against K.Pneumoniae, P.aeruqinosa, E.coli, and
5.aureus.
For each of the organisms listed in Table 6 below, 105
organisms were mid-log inoculated into 200 ~1 of one-half
strength trypticase soy broth. The organisms were incubated for
15 hrs. at 37C. After the incubation of the organisms, the
minimal inhi~itory concentration in ~g/ml for Magainin II
(amide-terminated), shown as MGN2, CPF Z-50 (amide-terminated)
peptide, Z-52 (amide-terminated) peptide, against each species of
organism was measured wherein 10 ~g~ml of erythromycin was added
and wherein no erythromycin was added. The minimal inhibitory
concentration of erythromycin alone against each species of
organism was also measured. The minimal inhibitory
concentrations in ~g/ml are given below in Table 6. For purpQses
of explanation, the "~" and "-" signs below the "Erythromycin (10
~g/ml)" column indicate the presence or a~sence, respectively,
of erythromycin ~dministered in combination with one of the `-
biologically active peptides. K.~neumQniae, P.aeruqinosa, and
E.coli are Gram-negative bacteria.

The above results show that when one of the ~-
biologically active ion channel-forming peptides shown in
Table 6 is added to 10 ~g/ml of erythromycin, such a
combination of peptide and erythromycin is effective against
the Gram-negative organisms shown, whereas grea~er than 100
~g/ml of erythromycin alone is required for effective
biological a~tivity against these Gram-negative organisms.
The addi*ion of erythromycin to the biologically active
peptides also enables one to use less of the biologically
active peptide against Gram-negatiYe organis~. Thus, there
is provided a synergistic effect against Gram-negatiYe
organisms when erythromycin and a biologically active
amphiphilic ion channel-fo~ming peptide are administered to
inhibit growth of Gram-negative organisms.
It was also found that a concentration from a~out
0.6 ~g/ml to about 1.25 ~g~ml of erythromycin alone was
required for effectiYe biological activity agai.nst S._aureus,
a Gram-positive organism, and that greater than 250 ~g/ml of
amide-terminated organism, and that greater than 250 ~g/ml of
amide-te~minated Magainin II alone was required for effective
biological activity against S.aureus. A combination of lO

M~gainin II and 0.03 ug/ml of erythromycin, however, al80 showed
effective biological activity against S.aureus. Thus, it has
also been shown that an enhanced effect against Gram-positive
organisms is also obtained when erythromycin and a biologically
active amphiphilic ion channel-forming peptide are administered
to inhi~it growth of Gram-positive organisms. The addition of
erythromycin to the bioloyically active peptide enables one to
use less of the biologically active peptide against a
Gram-positive organism.
ExamPle 7 -:~
The procedure for t~is assay, which is a checkerboard assay,
is performed as described in Antibiotics and Laboratorv Medicine,
2 nd ed., Victor Lorian, M.D., Editor, pgs. 540-546 (19~6).
The checkerboard assay is carried out in a microtiter plate
having wells arranged in rows and columns, 100 ~1 of plain broth
is added to every row of wells. 100 ~1 of peptide (SEQ ID
N0:100) at 512 ~g/ml is added to the top row of wells, and
serially dil~ted (1:2) through the columns. 50~1 o vancomycin
in 4X concentrations is added to each appropriate column of
wells to give a range of vancomycin concentrations from 16 to
1,024 ~g/ml. 50~1 of P. aeru~lnosa strain ATCC 27853 is thenr
added to each well. The plate is incubated at 35-37C for 18 to
24 hours, and the wells are then examined for the presence of
visible growth, i.e., turbidity.
Peptide (SEQ ID N0:100~-N~2 was tested alone or in
combination with vancomyein for activity against _ aeruainosa --
strain ATCC 27853.
In this assay, the MIC of (SEQ ID N0:100)-NH2 wa~ 32 ~g/ml,
and the MIC of vancomycin was greater than 1,024 ~g/ml; i.e.,
vancomycin at a concentration of 1,024 ~g/ml did not inhibit
growth of P. aeru~inosa.

WO g3J07892 PCT/US92/08823
2~2D337

The following combinations of (SEQ tD N0:100)-N~2 and
vancomycin were found to be inhibitory.
~ ~q/ml ~SEQ ID NO:100)-NH2 plus 16 ~g/ml ~ancomycin
8 ~g/ml (SEQ ID NO:100)-NH2 plus 32 ~g/ml vancomycin
8 ~g/ml (SEQ ID N0:100)-NH2 plus 64 ~g/ml vancomycin
8 ~g/ml (SEQ ID N0:100)-NH2 plus 128 ~g/ml vancomycin
8 ~g/ml (SEQ ID NO:100)-NH2 plus 256 ~g/ml vancomycin
8 ~g/ml (SEQ ID NO:100)-NH2 plus S12 ~g/ml vancomycin
8 ~g/ml (SEQ ID N0:100)-NH2 plus 1,024 ~g/ml vancomycin
The above results thus indicate that an enhanced effect
against P. aeruainosa is obtained when vancomycin and a
biologically active ion channel-forming peptide are administered
to inhibit growth of P. aeruqinosa.
The peptide or protein and antibiotic such as those
hereinabove des~ribed, may be enployed for treating a wide
variety of hosts. In accordance with a preferred embodiment, a
host is an animal, and such animal may be a human or non-human
animal~ It is also possible to administer the peptide or protein
and antibiotic in separate forms. For example, the antibiotic
may be administered systemically and the peptide or protein may
be administered topically.
The peptide or pr~tein and/or antibiotic such as those
hereina~ove described, may be employed in a wide variety of
pharmaceutical compositions in combination with a non-toxic
pharmaceutical carrier or vehicle such a~ a filler, nun-toxic
buffer, or physiological saline solution. Such pharmaceutical
compositions may be used topically or systemically and may be in
any suitable form such as a liquid, solid, semi-solid, injectable
soiution, tablet, ointment, lotion, paste, capsule, or the like.
The peptide or protein and/or antibioti~ such as those
hereinabove described may also be used in combination with
adjuvants, protease lnhibitors, or compatible drugs where such a
combination is seen to be desirable or advantàgeous in
controlling infection caused by harmful microorganisms.

When the peptide or protein is administered topically, it is
administered in combination with a water-soluble vehicle, said
water-soluble vehicle being in the form of an ointment, cream,
lotion, paste, or the like. Examples of water-soluble vehicles
which may be employed include, but are not limited to, glycols,
such as polyethylene glycol, hydroxycellulose, and KY Jelly. The
water-soluble vehicle is preferably free of an oily substance.
The combination of peptide or protein and antibiotic of the
present invention may be administered to a host; in particular an
animal, in an effective antibiotic amount. When used to inhibit
growth of bacterial cells, the combination, whether administered
as a mixture or separately, is employed in an effective
antibacterial amount. When used to inhibit growth of fungi, such
components are administered in an effective antifungal amount.
As representative examples of administering the peptide or ~-
protein and antibiotic for topical or local administration, the ~-
peptide or protein could be administered in an amount of from
about O.l,o to about 10% weight to weight; and the antibiotic is
delivered in an amount of from about 0.1~ to about 10% weight to
weight. -~;
Numerous modifications and variations of the present
invention are possible in light of the above teachings and,
therefore, within the scope of the appended claims, the invention
may be practiced otherwise than as partiGularly d~cribed.
