The invention belongs to the technical field of medicine, and relates to a crystalline form of a pyrrole amide compound and preparation methods and uses thereof, in particular relates to a crystalline form of (S)-1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-4-methyl-N-(3-fluoro-4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl)-5-(2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxamide (compound having formula (I)) and preparation methods and uses thereof. The present invention further relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising the crystalline form.
The mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) is an aldosterone-activated nuclear hormone receptor that regulates the expression of many genes involved in electrolyte homeostasis and cardiovascular disease. Increases in circulating aldosterone raise blood pressure through its effect on urinary sodium excretion, with potential effects on the brain, heart, and vascular system. In addition, hyperaldosteronism has been implicated in many disease processes leading to renal and cardiovascular disease. Although hyperaldosteronism is usually caused by aldosterone-producing adenomas, patients with resistant hypertension often have elevated aldosterone levels, which is often referred to as “aldosterone escape” and results from elevated serum potassium levels or residual AT1R activity. Hyperaldosteronism and aldosterone escape typically result in increased MR activity, and MR antagonists have been shown to be effective antihypertensive agents and are also effective in the treatment of heart failure and primary hyperaldosteronism. In addition, MR antagonists have also been shown to be effective in preclinical models of renal disease and may be used in combination with standard therapy to reduce proteinuria in patients with renal disease, such as chronic kidney disease, including diabetic nephropathy.
Drug polymorphism is a common phenomenon in drug development and an important factor affecting the quality of drugs. Different crystalline forms of the same drug may have significant differences in appearance, solubility, melting point, dissolution, bioavailability, etc., and may have different effects on the stability, bioavailability and efficacy of the drug. Therefore, the drug should be fully considered the problem of polymorphism in drug research and development.

X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) can detect changes in crystalline form, crystallinity, crystalline state and other information, and is a common means for identifying crystalline form. The peak position of the XRPD pattern primarily depends on the structure of the crystalline form and is relatively insensitive to the experimental details, and its relative peak height depends on many factors associated with sample preparation and instrument geometry. Thus, in some embodiments, the crystalline form of the present invention is characterized by an XRPD pattern having certain peak positions, which is substantially as shown in the XRPD pattern provided in the drawings of the present invention. At the same time, the 2θ of the XRPD pattern can be measured with an experimental error. The measurement of 2θ of the XRPD pattern may be slightly different between the different instruments and the different samples. Therefore, the vale of 2θ cannot be regarded as absolute. According to the condition of the instrument used in this test, the diffraction peak has an error tolerance of ±0.2°.
Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) is a technique of measuring the energy difference between a sample and an inert reference (commonly used α-Al2O3) with temperature by continuously heating or cooling under program control. The endothermic peak of the DSC diagram depends on many factors associated with sample preparation and instrument geometry, while the peak position is relatively insensitive to experimental details. Thus, in some embodiments, the crystalline form of the present invention is characterized by an DCS diagram having certain peak positions, which is substantially as shown in the DCS diagram provided in the drawings of the present invention. At the same time, the DCS diagram can be measured with an experimental error. The peak position and peak value of DCS diagram may be slightly different between the different instruments and the different samples. Therefore, the peak position or the peak value of the DSC endothermic peak cannot be regarded as absolute. According to the condition of the instrument used in this test, the endothermic peak has an error tolerance of ±3° C.
Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) is a technique for measuring the quality of a substance with temperature under the control of a program. It is suitable for examining the loss of solvent in the crystal or the process of sublimation and decomposition of the sample. It can be presumed that the crystal contains crystalline water or crystallization solvent. The mass change of the TGA diagram shown depends on a number of factors such as the sample preparation and the instrument. The mass change detected by TGA varies slightly between different instruments and different samples. According to the condition of the instrument used in the experiments of the present invention, there is a ±0.1% error tolerance for the mass change.
In the context of the present invention, the 20 values in the X-ray powder diffraction pattern are in degrees (°).

The percentage of the other crystalline forms in the total volume or total weight of the crystalline form is less than 20%, or less than 10%, or less than 5%, or less than 3%, or less than 1%, or less than 0.5%, or less than 0.1%, or less than 0.01%.
“Substantially free” means that the percentage of one or more other crystalline forms in the total volume or total weight of the crystalline form is less than 20%, or less than 10%, or less than 5%, or less than 4%, or less than 3%, or less than 2%, or less than 1%, or less than 0.5%, or less than 0.1%, or less than 0.01%.
The “relative intensity” (or “relative peak height”) in the XRPD diagram means the ratio of the intensity of the other peaks to the intensity of the first strong peak when the intensity of the first strong peak in all the diffraction peaks of the X-ray powder diffraction pattern (XRPD) is 100%.
