The disclosure also relates to processes for preparing crystalline forms of Compound 1 and/or tautomers thereof. The disclosure further relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising crystalline Compound 1 and/or tautomers thereof, methods of inhibiting a cell division cycle 7 (Cdc7) in a mammal comprising administering crystalline Compound 1 and/or tautomers thereof, as well as methods of treating a cell division cycle 7 mediated cancer in a mammal.
A characteristic of cancer is abnormal cell proliferation with a broken control mechanism. Most cancer cells grow more rapidly than cells of normal tissues. During cell division cycle, chromosome duplication is essential, and replication of DNA in the S phase of the cell division cycle is tightly regulated. Inhibition of DNA replication has been confirmed to be an effective therapy for cancer treatment and, for example, DNA replication inhibitors such as hydroxyurea (HU), gemcitabine and active metabolites of 5-fluorouracil are widely used as therapeutic agents for the treatment of cancer in clinical practice.
Cdc7 is an evolutionally well-conserved serine/threonine kinase and is known to play an important role in the initiation of DNA replication. The kinase activity of Cdc7 is controlled by binding with its activating partner. From the late stage of G1 phase to S phase, Cdc7 forms a complex with Dbf4 (also known as ASK) and phosphorylates the Cdc7 substrate to control transition from the G1 phase to the S phase. Recent studies have reported that Cdc7 plays important roles in both DNA replication and DNA damage signaling pathways.
In recent years, Cdc7 has been considered an attractive target for the treatment of cancer. Overexpression of Cdc7 is observed in many cancer cell lines and clinical tumors, including tumors associated with breast cancer, colorectal cancer, and lung cancer. In some cancer cell lines, an increase in chromosomal copy number of an activating factor, Dbf4, is found. Interestingly, a cancer cell line and an untransformed fibroblast cell line show different responses to suppression of Cdc7 expression using siRNA. The suppression of Cdc7 expression using siRNA causes the S phase arrest in cancer cell lines and induces apoptosis, whereas in normal cells it induces the G1 phase arrest in a p53 activity-dependent manner. Furthermore, Cdc7 is activated in cells undergoing replication stress, and apoptosis induced by hydroxyurea and etoposide increases in Cdc7 down-regulated cells. Accordingly, a Cdc7 inhibitor, as a single agent or in combination with other chemotherapeutic agents, could be useful for a selective cancer treatment.
Homma M. et al., U.S. Pat. No. 8,722,660 B2, a national stage entry of PCT/JP2011/053303 (published as WO 2011/102399), discloses compounds which are effective inhibitors of Cdc7. The compounds are useful for inhibiting Cdc7 kinase activity in vitro and in vivo and are useful for the treatment of disorders of cell proliferation, particularly cancer.

The synthesis of 2-[(2S)-1-azabicyclo[2.2.2]oct-2-yl]-6-(3-methyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one and/or tautomers thereof (crude Compound 1) was described in Example 178 of U.S. Pat. No. 8,722,660 B2. The large-scale manufacturing of a pharmaceutical composition poses many challenges to the chemist and chemical engineer. While many of these challenges relate to the handling of large quantities of reagents and control of large-scale reactions, the production and handling of the final active product poses special challenges linked to the nature of the final crystalline form, also referred to herein as the pharmaceutically active substance. Not only should the active product be prepared in high yield, be stable, and be capable of ready isolation, but the manufacturing processes must also be controlled such that the desired crystalline form is produced reliably and consistently. The stability and purity of the crystalline form of the pharmaceutical preparation must be considered during each step of the manufacturing process, including the synthesis, isolation, bulk storage, pharmaceutical formulation and long-term storage.
The pharmaceutically active substance used to prepare pharmaceutical compositions should be as pure as possible, and its stability on long-term storage should be guaranteed under various environmental conditions. These properties are useful to prevent the appearance of unintended degradation products in pharmaceutical compositions, as degradation products may be potentially toxic or result simply in reducing the potency of the composition.
One primary concern for the large-scale manufacture of pharmaceutical compounds is that the active substance should have a stable crystalline polymorph to ensure consistent processing parameters and pharmaceutical quality. If an unstable crystalline form is used, crystal polymorph may change during manufacture and/or storage, resulting in quality control problems and formulation irregularities. Such a change may affect the reproducibility of the manufacturing process, resulting in final formulations which do not meet the high quality and stringent requirements imposed on formulations of pharmaceutical compositions. In this regard, it should be generally noted that any change to the solid state of a pharmaceutical composition which can improve its physical and chemical stability imparts a significant advantage over less stable forms of the same drug. Furthermore, it is critical that a robust manufacturing process is developed that consistently produces the active substance. The existence of multiple crystalline forms with close solubilities creates a difficult challenge in large-scale manufacture of pharmaceutical compounds.
When a compound crystallizes from a solution or slurry, it may crystallize with different spatial lattice arrangements, a property referred to as “polymorphism.” Each of the crystal forms is known as a “polymorph.” While polymorphs of a given substance have the same chemical composition, they may differ from each other with respect to one or more physical properties, such as solubility, dissociation, true density, dissolution, melting point, crystal shape, compaction behavior, flow properties, and/or solid state stability.
As described generally above, the polymorphic behavior of drugs can be of great importance in pharmacology. The differences in physical properties exhibited by polymorphs affect practical parameters such as storage stability, compressibility and density (important in formulation and product manufacturing), as well as dissolution rates (an important factor in determining bio-availability). Differences in stability can result from changes in chemical reactivity (e.g., differential oxidation, such that a dosage form discolors more rapidly when it is one polymorph than when it is another polymorph), mechanical changes (e.g., tablets crumble on storage as a kinetically favored polymorph converts to a thermodynamically more stable polymorph), or both (e.g., tablets of one polymorph are more susceptible to breakdown at high humidity). In addition, the physical properties of the crystal may be important in processing. For instance, one polymorph might be more likely to form solvates that cause the solid form to aggregate and increase the difficulty of solid handling. Alternatively, the particle shape and size distribution might be different between one polymorph relative to another, leading to increased challenges when filtering the pharmaceutically active substance to remove impurities.
While drug formulations having improved chemical and physical properties are desired, there is no predictable means for preparing new drug forms (e.g., polymorphs and other new crystalline forms) of existing molecules for such formulations. These new forms would provide consistency in physical properties over a range of environments common to manufacturing and composition usage. Thus, there is a need for new drug forms that are useful for inhibiting Cdc7 kinase activity in vitro and in vivo, and are useful for the treatment of disorders of cell proliferation, particularly cancer, and other disorders associated with Cdc7 kinase activity, as well as have properties suitable for large-scale manufacturing and formulation.

The crystals were collected by filtration and washed with ethanol (60 mL) to give Compound 1 as crystals (Compound 1 Crystalline Form A, 7.73 g, yield 81.1%). The obtained crystals contained 2.6% water and were characterized by a XRPD pattern with specific peaks at d values (or d-spacings) of 22.1, 11.0, 7.3, 5.5, 5.1, 4.9, 4.5, 3.7, 3.4, 3.3 and 3.0 Å.

Crude Compound 1 was obtained according to the method described in Example 178 of U.S. Pat. No. 8,722,660 B2. Crude Compound 1 (30 g) was dissolved in DMSO (300 mL) at 20° C. to 30° C. After confirmation of dissolution, dust removal filtration was carried out and a filtrate solution was obtained. The residue was washed with DMSO (60 mL), and a washing solution was obtained. A mixed solution of acetone (150 mL) and water (150 mL) was stirred at 45° C. to 55° C., and 45 mL of the filtrate solution was added dropwise for 10 to 30 min at the same temperature. After dropwise addition, the mixture was stirred at the same temperature for 10 min. To the mixture, 15 mL of the filtrate solution was added dropwise for 3 to 10 min at the same temperature. After dropwise addition, the mixture was stirred at the same temperature for 1 hr or longer. After confirmation of the precipitation of the crystals, the rest of the filtrate solution was added dropwise for 1 to 2 hr at the same temperature. After dropwise addition, the washing solution was added dropwise at the same temperature. After dropwise addition, the mixture was stirred at the same temperature for 1 hr. After stirring, the mixture was allowed to cool to 20° C. to 30° C. and stirred for 1 hr or longer. After stirring, the crystals were collected by filtration and washed with water (150 mL) and acetone (150 mL) successively to give wet crystals. The obtained wet crystals were dried under reduced pressure at 60° C. to give Compound 1 as crystals (Compound 1 Crystalline Form I, 25.9 g, yield 86.3%).
A mixture of Compound 1 Crystalline Form A and Compound 1 Crystalline Form I, herein referred to as Compound 1 Crystalline Form A/I (5 g) was suspended in a mixture of DMSO (60 mL) and water (5.15 mL). Then, the suspension was heated to 55° C. to 65° C. and stirred for 12 hr or longer. Thereafter, a part of the solids was collected by filtration. As a result of XRPD measurements, Compound 1 Crystalline Form A/I was confirmed to convert to Compound 1 Crystalline Form I. After confirmation of the conversion, the mixture was allowed to cool to 20° C. to 30° C. over 3 hrs and stirred at the same temperature for 1 hr or longer. Thereafter, a part of the solids was collected by filtration. As a result of XRPD measurements, the identification of the crystals as Compound 1 Crystalline Form I was confirmed. After confirmation, a mixture of acetone (25 mL) and water (25 mL) was added dropwise for 30 min or longer at 20° C. to 30° C. After dropwise addition, the mixture was stirred at the same temperature for 1 hr or longer. After stirring, the crystals were collected by filtration and washed with water (25 mL) and acetone (25 mL) successively to give wet crystals. The obtained wet crystals were dried under reduced pressure at 60° C. to give Compound 1 as crystals (Compound 1 Crystalline Form I, 4.7 g, yield 94.0%).
X-ray powder diffraction patterns were collected using a Rigaku Ultima IV (Rigaku, Tokyo, Japan) with Cu-Kα radiation generated at 50 mA and 40 kV. A sample was placed on a silicon plate at room temperature. Data were collected from 2° to 35° (2θ) at a step size of 0.02° and a scanning speed of 6°/min.
To study the effects of (i) concentration of Compound 1 and (ii) water content on the crystalline form of Compound 1, the following screen was performed.
Compound 1 Crystalline Form A was completely dissolved in 5 mL DMSO/g Compound 1 Crystalline Form A at 80° C. and filtered through a 0.22 μm pore membrane filter. Then, part of the resulting solution was diluted by 4/3, 2 or 3-fold with DMSO. The Compound 1 solutions were added into acetone containing various percentage of water at 55° C. The solutions were incubated at 55° C. for 1 hr and stirred at 300 rpm while cooling to 25° C. at 3° C./hr. The precipitate was harvested from each solution, and crystal form of the precipitates was studied by XRPD analysis. X-ray powder diffraction patterns were collected using a Rigaku Ultima IV (Rigaku, Tokyo, Japan) with Cu-Kα radiation generated at 50 mA and 40 kV. A sample was placed on a silicon plate at room temperature. Data were collected from 2° to 35° (2θ) at a step size of 0.02° and a scanning speed of 6°/min. The results are shown in Table 2.
This result demonstrated that, at high concentrations of Compound 1 (i.e., 18.2 g/L), pure Compound 1 Crystalline Form I will not crystallize unless the water content in acetone before the DMSO solution addition is low (i.e, less than 0.7% v/v).
Suitable water content for further optimization studies to obtain Compound 1 Crystalline Form I was determined based on the screening results. Then, Compound 1 in DMSO solution (10 mL DMSO/g Compound 1) was added dropwise to a mixture of acetone and water (10 mL acetone/water per g Compound 1) at 50° C. with various addition speeds. Based on the results, which are shown in Table 3 below, the addition speed of Compound 1 in DMSO solution should be slow throughout the addition in order to obtain Compound 1 Crystalline Form I. Under these conditions, fast addition favored formation of Compound 1 Crystalline Form A.
About 2 mg of Compound 1 Crystalline Form A made in example 2 or Compound 1 Crystalline Form I made in example 3-2 and 2 mL of 200 mM phosphate buffer (pH 6.8) were added into a glass test tube. The test tube was shaken vigorously and incubated at 10° C., 20° C., 30° C. or 40° C. for 20 hrs. After the incubation, the suspension was centrifuged and the supernatant was filtered through a 0.22 μm pore membrane filter. The filtrate solutions were diluted 2-fold with 50 mM sodium perchlorate buffer (pH 2.5)/acetonitrile (1/1, v/v). Concentration was determined by HPLC. The results are shown in Table 4.
Compound 1 crystalline form I (9.5 kg, 97.1% ee) was dissolved in DMSO (85.5 L, 9.0 mL DMSO/g Compound 1). The solution was heated to 60° C. The reaction mixture was polish filtered while maintaining a mixture temperature of approximately 60° C. The transfer lines were rinsed with DMSO (6.7 L, 0.7 mL DMSO/g Compound 1). The Compound 1 solution and the rinse solution were combined. The Compound 1 solution was then heated to 60° C. Preheated 60° C. water (4.0 L, 0.43 mL water/g Compound 1) was added to the Compound 1 solution over 1 hr while maintaining an internal temperature of 60° C. Compound 1 Crystalline Form I (106.0 g, 1.1 weight %) seed crystals were charged to the reaction mixture. The reaction mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 1 hr. Preheated 60° C. water (3.9 L, 0.41 mL water/g Compound 1) was added to the Compound 1 suspension over 3 hrs while maintaining a batch temperature of 60° C. Upon completion of water addition, the slurry was stirred at 60° C. for a minimum of 4.5 hrs. A sample was taken from the slurry and filtered to obtain crystals. The crystals were analyzed by XRPD. If the sample crystals were not all Compound 1 Crystalline Form I, the stirring was continued. Samples were taken then analyzed every 6 hrs until Compound 1 Crystalline Form A was not detected by XRPD in the sample crystals. The reaction was cooled to 25° C. in 5 hrs. The solids were filtered and washed with 3 mL of 2:1/acetone:water (28.5 L) per g of solid twice. The solids were dried under vacuum at 60° C. for 18 hrs to afford 7.3 kg (76.8% yield) of the desired product. The desired product was obtained as a white solid. HPLC showed the obtained product was >99% purity and chiral HPLC showed 99.1% ee. Analysis by XRPD confirmed the obtained product was Compound 1 Crystalline Form I.
X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) patterns were collected using a Bruker AXS D8 Advance X-ray Diffractometer with Cu Kα radiation at 40 kV and 40 mA. Approximately 100 mg sample was gently flattened at the center of a 50 mm diameter VeroWhitePlus sample holder for powder diffraction analysis. The sample was run as a continuous scan from 2.9° to 35° 2θ using 2θ/θ locked coupled angles with step size of 0.025° 2θ and data collection time of 0.4 seconds per step. The sample run was carried out under ambient conditions, and all data analysis was performed using EVA version 9.0 software.
DMSO (240 mL, 3380 mmol, 12 mL DMSO/g Compound 1 Crystalline Form A/I) and water (20.6 mL, 1140 mmol, 1 mL water/g Compound 1 Crystalline Form A/I) were added to a 500 mL OptiMax reactor. Compound 1 Crystalline Form A/I (20.00 g, 58.58 mmol) was then added to the reactor. The resulting slurry was stirred at 300 rpm and heated to 60° C. After stirring for 26 hrs, a sample of the slurry was removed, filtered hot, and washed with a minimal amount of 1:1 acetone:water to yield approximately 100 mg of solids, which were submitted for XRPD analysis and found to be Compound 1 Crystalline Form I. The bulk slurry was cooled to 22° C. over 6 hrs and was stirred at 22° C. overnight. In the morning, the slurry was filtered and washed twice with 60 mL of 2:1 acetone:water. The filter cake was dried over 72 hrs at 45° C. under vacuum. XRPD of the bulk dried solid showed that it was Compound 1 Crystalline Form I.

Compound 1 Crystalline Form A/I (20.00 g, 58.58 mmol) was then added to the reactor. The resulting slurry was circulated through the wet mill (set at 10,000 rpm) for 1 min. The slurry was then passed once through the wet mill and transferred back to the OptiMax reactor. The slurry was then heated to 60° C. After stirring for 17.5 hrs at 60° C., a sample of the slurry was removed, filtered hot, and washed with a minimal amount of 1:1 acetone:water to yield approximately 100 mg of solids, which were submitted for XRPD analysis and found to be Compound 1 Crystalline Form I.

A solution of DMSO/water with known water content was added to a glass vial and heated to 60° C. Crystals of Compound 1 Crystalline Form I or Compound 1 Crystalline Form A were added to the vial until a suspension was obtained. The suspension was stirred via magnetic stirring and incubated for 24 hrs at 60° C. After incubation, the suspension was filtered at 60° C. 10 μL of the filtrate was sampled and diluted with 990 μL of acetonitrile/water (1/1, v/v). Sample concentration of Compound 1 was determined by HPLC. At 60° C., the solubility of Compound 1 Crystalline Form I in water/DMSO was lower than the solubility of Compound 1 Crystalline Form A in water/DMSO (
The following fillers were evaluated for compatibility with Compound 1 Crystalline Form I:
Lactose (FlowLac 100® [Mutchler, Inc; Harrington Park, N.J., USA])
Mannitol (Pearlitol 100SD® [Roquette America, Inc; Geneva, Ill., USA])
Starch 1500 (StarCap 1500® [Colorcon, Inc; Harleysville, Pa., USA])
Dicalcium phosphate anhydrous (A-Tab® [Innophos, Inc; Cranbury, N.J., USA])
Because Compound 1 epimerization is catalyzed in the presence of an acid, 10% L-glutamic acid was included in the evaluated blends to facilitate the development of a stability indicating assay. The formulation compositions used for the study are described in Table 7. To evaluate stability, the blends were stored at the accelerated conditions of 60° C./75% RH for two weeks. A blend containing no filler but an equivalent amount of acid was used as a control in the stability indicating assay. The results from the compatibility study are shown in Table 8.
MCC PH101 and dicalcium phosphate showed a higher increase in the chiral impurity at 1 week and were not tested at 2 weeks. Mannitol, lactose and starch demonstrated an acceptable increase in chiral impurity at 2 weeks.
To prepare a capsule formulation of Compound 1 Crystalline Form I, mannitol, colloidal silicon dioxide, and Compound 1 Crystalline Form I were weighed and added to a V-blender. The powders were then mixed in the V-blender for 5 minutes at 25 rpm. The resultant blend was passed through a comil fitted with a 032R screen (810 microns) to delump Compound 1 Crystalline Form I and the excipients mannitol and colloidal silicon dioxide. The comilled blend was mixed in a V-blender for 5 minutes at 25 rpm. Blend uniformity was evaluated as part of in-process testing. The final blend was collected and encapsulated into capsules using a manual encapsulation process. Capsules were polished using manual and instrumented equipment. Polished capsules were inspected for metal contamination, weight checked, and sorted as part of in-process testing. Weight sorted capsules were bulk packaged in a high density polyethylene (HDPE) drum lined with double polyethylene bags.
Representative manufacturing batch formula to produce approximately 45,455 capsules comprising about 10 mg dose strength Compound 1 Crystalline Form I, approximately 45,000 capsules comprising about 25 mg dose strength Compound 1 Crystalline Form I, and approximately 28,125 capsules comprising about 80 mg dose strength Compound 1 Crystalline Form I are provided in Table 9. As used herein, the dosage strength or dose strength for the capsule is represented by the approximate weight of the active drug substance (Compound 1 Crystalline Form I).
aActual weight adjusted based on a drug substance assay and moisture content to give the desired potency per capsule.
bActual amount adjusted based on the amount of Compound 1 Crystalline Form I used to give the desired potency per capsule.
Crystallographic parameters of Compound 1 crystalline forms are summarized in Table 10. In the X-ray crystal structure of Compound 1 Crystalline Form, a water molecule is located on the 2-fold symmetry axis. Therefore, an asymmetric unit cell contains a molecule of 2-[(2S)-1-azabicyclo[2.2.2]oct-2-yl]-6-(3-methyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one and half of one water molecule. On the other hand, an asymmetric unit cell in the crystal structure of Compound 1 Crystalline Form I contains two molecules of 2-[(2S)-1-azabicyclo[2.2.2]oct-2-yl]-6-(3-methyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one with different conformations from each other and one water molecule. The asymmetric unit cells suggest that Compound 1 Crystalline Form A and Compound 1 Crystalline Form I are hemihydrates.

Furthermore, X-ray structure analysis was also conducted using another crystal with higher quality and refinement calculations was performed using SHELXL-2014. Hydrogen atom of water was successfully identified in the new difference Fourier maps while its location could not be determined in previous maps due to low data quality. The hydrogen atoms of a methyl group and water were located in a difference Fourier synthesis and the others were placed geometrically. All hydrogen atoms were refined using a riding model. Final optimized parameter is shown in Table 11.
