The second is a 58-year-old patient, diabetic and hypertensive, with a right foot injury, with previous vascular surgery; 19 applications of Heberprot-P were performed and the lesion healed in 49 days. The third case is a 55-year-old patient, who was admitted due to an extensive injury to his right foot, 22 applications of Heberprot-P were performed, closure of the injury was achieved in 85 days and amputation was avoided. Conclusions: The presented cases evolved favorably with Heberprot-P treatment.
RESUMO
Introducción: Heberprot-P® obtuvo su primer registro sanitario en Cuba en el año 2006, actualmente está aprobado en otros 26 países. Objetivo: Describir el proceso de registro sanitario en México, del medicamento biotecnológico Heberprot-P® para el tratamiento de las úlceras del pie diabético. Métodos: El proceso de registro sanitario de Heberprot-P® siguió las pautas de la reglamentación sanitaria de México sobre la base de la Ley general de salud y el Reglamento de insumos para la salud. Se revisaron además la Farmacopea de los Estados Unidos Mexicanos y las normas oficiales mexicanas en función de cumplir las exigencias para la comercialización de medicamentos en este territorio. Resultados: El proceso de registro se inició en junio de 2017 en México con acciones en función de completar los documentos e informaciones exigidas en el expediente de registro sanitario a presentarse. Entre ellos resaltan las consideraciones del Subcomité de Evaluación de Productos Biotecnológicos y el Comité de Moléculas Nuevas, la evaluación del expediente por un Tercero Autorizado y documentos emitidos por el Centro Nacional de Farmacovigilancia e Instituto Mexicano de la Propiedad Industrial. Se presentó la solicitud del registro sanitario ante Cofepris y esta se aprobó en mayo de 2018. Conclusiones: El trabajo con grupos de expertos permitió a la autoridad mexicana hacer un trabajo más expedito basado en las evidencias de las evaluaciones realizadas que son parte de la información del registro sanitario. Como resultado de este proceso, se otorgó el Registro Sanitario a Heberprot-P® en mayo de 2018 y Cofepris lo reconoció como un medicamento biotecnológico innovador(AU)
Introduction: Heberprot-P® obtained its first Sanitary Registration in Cuba in 2006, and it is currently approved in 26 other countries. Objective: Describe the sanitary registration process in Mexico of the biotechnological drug Heberprot-P® for the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers. Methods: The sanitary registration process of Heberprot-P® followed the guidelines of the sanitary regulations of Mexico on the basis of the General Health Law and the Regulation of Supplies for Health. The Pharmacopoeia of the United Mexican States and the official Mexican standards were also revised in order to comply with the requirements for the marketing of medicines in this territory. Results: The registration process began in June 2017 in Mexico with actions to complete the documents and information required in the sanitary registration file to be submitted. Among them are the considerations of the Sub-committee on the Evaluation of Biotechnological Products and the Committee on New Molecules, the evaluation of the file by an Authorized Third Party and documents issued by the National Center for Pharmacovigilance and the Mexican Institute of Industrial Property. The application for sanitary registration was submitted to Cofepris and this was approved in May 2018. Conclusions: The work with groups of experts allowed the Mexican authority to do a more expeditious work based on the evidence of the evaluations carried out that are part of the information of the sanitary registry. As a result of this process, Heberprot-P® was granted the Sanitary Registry in May 2018 and COFEPRIS recognized it as an innovative biotechnological medicine(AU)

BACKGROUND: Imaging the lower extremity reproducibly and accurately remains an elusive goal. This is particularly true in the high risk diabetic foot, where tissue loss, edema, and color changes are often concomitant. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the reproducibility of a novel and inexpensive stereotaxic frame in assessment of wound healing. METHODS: The main idea is to keep constant and reproducible the relative position of extremities related to the sensor used for the examination during a serial studies by stereotaxic digital photographic sequence. Ten healthy volunteers were evaluated at 10 different time moments to estimate the foot position variations in the stereotaxic frame. The evolution of 40 of DFU patients under treatment was evaluated before and during the epidemical grow factor intralesional treatment. RESULTS: The wound closing and granulation speeds, the relative contribution of the contraction and tissue restauration mechanism were evaluated by stereotaxic digital photography. CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study suggest that the stereotaxic frame is a robust platform for serial study of the evolution of wound healing which allow to obtain consistent information from a variety of visible and hyperspectral measurement technologies. New stereotaxic digital photography evidences related to the diabetic foot ulcer healing process under treatment has been presented.

NTRODUCTION Diabetic foot ulcers are a chronic complication in patients with diabetes mellitus. They appear as a result of the combination of diabetic polyneuropathy and angiopathy, and in many cases require amputation of the affected extremity. Clinical trials have demonstrated that repeated local infiltration with Heberprot-P can improve healing of chronic diabetic foot ulcers. Although there is evidence of its effects as a granulation stimulator and on cell migration and proliferation, genetic control mechanisms explaining its anti-inflammatory and oxidative stress reduction properties are not yet thoroughly understood. OBJECTIVE Analyze changes in expression of genes involved in healing after treatment of diabetic foot ulcers with Heberprot-P. METHODS Biopsies were collected from diabetic foot ulcers of 10 responding patients before and after 2 weeks' treatment with Heberprot-P (75-µg applied intralesionally 3 times per week). Total RNA was obtained and quantitative PCR used to determine expression of 26 genes related to inflammation, oxidative stress, cell proliferation, ngiogenesis and extracellular matrix formation. Genetic expression was quantified before and after treatment using REST 2009 v2.0.13. RESULTS After treatment, there was a statistically significant increase in expression of genes related to cell proliferation, angiogenesis and formation of extracellular matrix (PDGFB, CDK4, P21, TP53, ANGPT1, COL1A1, MMP2 and TIMP2). A significant decrease was observed in gene expression related to inflammatory processes and oxidative stress (NFKB1, TNFA and IL-1A). CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that Heberprot-P's healing action on diabetic foot ulcers is mediated through changes in genetic expression that reduce hypoxia, inflammation and oxidative stress, and at the same time increase cell proliferation, collagen synthesis and extracellular matrix remodeling. The kinetics of expression of two genes related to extracellular matrix formation needs further exploration.
