Benefits of technology

The patent text describes a composition that has the ability to enhance the skin's ability to absorb radiation and minimize damage caused by sun exposure or laser treatments. Additionally, the composition can help prevent skin cancer from occurring or coming back after treatment.

Problems solved by technology

Radiation therapy has traditionally been the treatment of choice for locally or regionally advanced cancer, but its therapeutic efficacy is often hindered by limited tolerance of normal tissues and by tumor radio resistance.
Radiation may cause severe burns of the skin and surrounding tissue as well as permanent changes in pigmentation.
Further, prolonged exposure to UV radiation, such as from the sun, can lead to the formation of light dermatoses and erythema, as well as increase the risk of skin cancers, such as melanoma, and accelerate skin aging, such as loss of skin elasticity and wrinkling.

on of Mineral-based Compositions

[0120]The present example relates to a specific embodiment of the composition of the invention. Fountain water containing Sodium, Chloride, Calcium, Magnesium, Potassium, Manganese, Cooper, Zinc, Selenium, Sulphur, Silicates, Bicarbonate, Tellurium and Iron (pH 8.2) was collected and filtrated with reverse osmosis (RO) filtration system (6 Bar, 0.0001 micron; LOFMEM™ Q Series, Lenntech Ltd., Eaton Corporation, USA). Following drying and evaporation, the concentrate was grinded with citric acid to receive a supersaturated solution. Thereafter, a precipitation process (85° C.) is performed to substantial reduce sodium chloride levels. A dry substance is received by heating the supersaturated solution to 60° C.

[0121]Thereafter, a microencapsulating process is performed by mixing Jojoba wax with the supersaturated mineral substance (IKA® T18 digital ULTRA-TURRAX® Homogenizer, 25000 rpm) in 5° C., and subsequently mixing in vitamin E and vitamin A. Aloe-Ve...

n of Skin Damage in Subjects Undergoing Radiotherapy

[0122]The ability of the composition described herein to prevent skin damage due to exposure to radiotherapy was examined. A breast cancer patient showed skin dermatitis including red irritation and blistering after 10 days of radiotherapy (FIG. 1A). Topically applying the composition of the invention remarkably cleared the dermatitis (FIG. 1B). Furthermore, dermatitis did not reoccur throughout the entire treatment process (26 seasons, 5 per week).

[0123]The present example shows prevention of damage to skin of a cancer patient undergoing radiotherapy by topically applying the composition of the invention.

n of Skin Damage in Subjects Exposed to UV Rays

[0124]The ability of the composition described herein to prevent skin damage (e.g., burns) due to over exposure to UV rays was examined. Fifty subjects, who were exposed to long term sun exposure, applied the composition in two different regimens. One group applied the composition each morning once a day and the second group applied the composition once every 3 days. Group one showed no signs of any burns or redness. The second group also showed no sign of burns. Two patients having very fair skin, showed minor redness after the 3rd day which disappeared after further application of the composition.

[0125]The present example shows prevention of damage to skin cells exposed to UV radiation by topical application of the composition of the invention.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 054,040 filed Sep. 23, 2014 and entitled “MINERAL BASED COMPOSITIONS AND USE THEREOF”, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The invention relates to, inter alia, mineral-based formulations and use thereof in preventing skin damages.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]In higher vertebrates including mammals and particularly in humans, skin is the largest body organ and serves as an important environmental interface, providing a protective envelope that is crucial for homeostasis. The outer layer of skin, the epidermis, is covered by the stratum carenum, a protective layer of dead epidermal skin cells (e.g., keratinocytes) and extracellular connective tissue proteins that is continually being sloughed off as it is replaced by new material pushed up from the underlying epidermal granular cell, spi...
