Patent Application
20210300931
Described herein are methods for the preparation of certain pyrrolopyrimidine compounds that are useful for the treatment of proliferation disorders and other diseases related to the dysregulation of kinase (such as, but not limited to, EGFR (including HER), Alk, PDGFR, BLK, BMX/ETK, BTK, FLT3(D835Y), ITK, JAK1, JAK2, JAK3, TEC, and TXK) and/or the respective pathways. Also described herein are certain salt forms and physical forms of said pyrrolopyrimidine compounds, stabilized pharmaceutical compositions comprising said pyrrolopyrimidine compounds and processes for preparing such compositions, and intermediates useful in the preparation of the pyrrolopyrimidine compounds.
Certain pyrrolopyrimidine compounds are modulators of protein kinases and are therefore useful in protein kinase-mediated diseases, including cancer and chronic inflammation. A particular kinase of interest is epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR; ErbB-1; HER1 in humans). This kinase is a member of the ErbB family of receptors, a subfamily of four closely related receptor tyrosine kinases: EGFR (ErbB-1), HER2/c-neu (ErbB-2), Her 3 (ErbB-3) and Her 4 (ErbB-4). EGFR is reportedly deregulated in most solid tumor types, such as lung cancer, breast cancer, and brain tumors. Resistance to known therapies develops due to the presence of a mutation of T790M, which is the gatekeeper of EGFR. Certain pyrrolopyrimidine compounds show selective inhibition of the T790M-mutated EGFR inhibitor relative to the wild type EGFR. It is desirable to develop a more efficient EGFR inhibitor that will target substantially the mutated EGFR over the wild type protein. Other protein kinases that are useful targets for small molecule pharmaceuticals include B lymphoid tyrosine kinase (BLK), janus kinase 1 (JAK1), bone marrow kinase on the X chromosome (BMX/ETK), Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK), janus kinase 2 (JAK2), janus kinase 3 (JAK3), tyrosine kinase expressed in hepatocellular carcinoma (TEC), resting lymphocyte kinase (TXK, also known as RLK), FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3), and FLT3 (D835Y). Such compounds are described in PCT Publ. No. WO2014/025486.
An efficient method of making such pyrrolopyrimidine kinase inhibitors is needed to allow for clinical testing and commercial use. Such methods, and intermediates useful for the preparation of such compounds, are described herein. Certain salt forms and polymorphs of said compounds are also described.
Certain pyrrolopyrimidine compounds, including N-(3-((2-((3-fluoro-4-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)phenyl)amino)-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-yl)oxy)phenyl)acrylamide and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, are useful in treating tumors and related diseases related to the dysregulation of kinases such as those described herein (including, but not limited to, EGFR (including HER), Alk, and PDGFR pathways). See, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 8,685,998 B2.
In general, drug stability is an important consideration in the design, manufacture, and storage of pharmaceutical compositions. Drug products that lack stability can form degradation products that can cause undesirable side effects or, in some cases, can cause a decrease in the efficacy and bioavailability of the drug substance itself, making it difficult for physicians to prescribe consistent and effective doses. Therefore, pharmaceutical compositions containing active therapeutic agents, such as those described herein, including N-(3-((2-((3-fluoro-4-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)phenyl)amino)-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-yl)oxy)phenyl)acrylamide and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, that have quick release characteristics, excellent stability, extensive adaptability, and medicinal significance are needed. Described herein are such pharmaceutical compositions.
The present invention is directed to methods of preparing certain pyrrolopyrimidine derivatives and intermediates useful in their preparation. Also described herein are certain salt forms, polymorphs, and amorphous forms of said compounds. Additionally, pharmaceutical compositions comprising these pyrrolopyrimidine derivatives and their process of preparation are described.

Aside from the pharmacological activity of an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), there are a variety of physical or physicochemical characteristics of the active substance that are relevant for the preparation of solid oral dosage forms (including oral powders, granules, pellets, tablets, capsules, chewable tablets, dispersible tables, troches or lozenges). To achieve adequate formulation characteristics, such as correct assay, content, and mass uniformity, chemical and physical stability of the drug product, and a proper dissolution rate, the characteristics of the drug product intermediates also have to support a robust manufacturing process.
Therefore, in some aspects, how to achieve suitable adequate formulation characteristics depends on making and manufacturing process for stabilized pharmaceutical compositions containing a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or Compound 1, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
While not wishing to be bound by any particular theory, in some instances, the degradation of a compound of Formula (I) or Compound 1 is considered to occur through a pathway involving dimerization of the compound. For example, two molecules of a compound of Formula I could condense under acidic conditions (e.g., during or after salt formation with an acid) to form a dimer. In some embodiments, an amino group on one molecule reacts with the acrylamide group of a second molecule. In some embodiments, the —NR10 or N—R15 amino group of one molecule reacts with the acrylamide group in a second molecule to form a β-amino-substituted amido group. In some embodiments, Compound 1 dimerizes. In some embodiments, a dimer of Compound 1 may have the structure Dimer 1 as shown below:
In situations where the compound or salt thereof dimerizes during the formulation process, the dimer may have one or more acid counterions as appropriate for the acid used, e.g., maleate (one molecule, as the dicarboxylate), two bromide counterions, two mesylate counterions, and the like. In some embodiments, the dimer may form as shown below:
Undesired dimerization may be promoted by exposure of the drug substance to heat, air, moisture, stress, compaction, or other interactions or events during the manufacturing process. This dimerization can affect particle size of the drug substance, and thus solubility, stability, and bioavailability of the resulting drug product.
Attempts to reduce dimer-based degradation in active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) have been reported in WO2004/045624 A1 (PCT/JP2003/014504) and Chinese Pat. Publ. No. CN104306348 A1 (Appln. No. CN20141514067). WO 2004/045624 A1 describes a physical method to control dimer formation for an API by using a coating process, which increases the cost and complexity of the manufacturing process. CN104306348 A describes reducing dimer formation through the addition of various chemical additives (butylated hydroxyanisole, BHA). However, use of such chemicals may be limited due to undesired interactions with other components of the drug product, or regulatory approval considerations.
Therefore, there is a need for stabilized pharmaceutical compositions and the manufacturing process thereof that does not require the addition of restricted chemicals or excipients. There is also a need for manufacturing process for making the stabilized pharmaceutical compositions into suitable pharmaceutical dosage forms, e.g., solid oral formulation, without resorting to a more complex manufacturing process.
In some embodiments are methods of making stabilized pharmaceutical compositions comprising a compound of Formula (I) or Compound 1, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, comprising pre-blending a suitable adsorbing agent with the therapeutic agent, and then re-blending manufacturing excipients during manufacture of the solid oral formulation, e.g., capsules or tablets. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions comprise an effective amount of a compound of Formula (I) or Compound 1, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
In some embodiments, it is discovered, surprisingly, that combining a compound of Formula (I) or Compound 1, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, with a suitable adsorbing agent, prior to formulation into a dosage form, lowers dimerization rate of the compound. While not wishing to be bound by any particular theory, it is considered that the adsorbing agent(s) is able to protect the compound of Formula I or Compound 1, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, from physical and environmental stress that, under unprotected conditions, lead to the formation of degradation products such as a dimers, e.g., a dimer having the structure of Dimer 1.
In some embodiments, it is demonstrated that by utilizing one or more suitable adsorbing agent(s) as a blending agent, the formation of degradation products such as a dimer of the compound of Formula I or Compound 1, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, e.g., a dimer having the structure of Dimer 1, is significantly reduced. Indeed, it is demonstrated that a dimer of the compound of Formula (I) or Compound 1, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, e.g., a dimer having the structure of Dimer 1, can be reduced to or maintained at a level that is less than any one of 2.0%, or less than 1.0%, or less than 0.75%, or less than 0.5%, or less than 0.25% of the total weight of the compound of Formula I or Compound 1, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, upon completion of formulation, or upon storage for a time point that is at least 3 months, or at least 6 months, or at least 12 months, or at least 18 months, or at least 24 months, or at least 36 months from the date when the pharmaceutical compositions are first formulated. In some embodiments, the dimer or other impurity is detected by HPLC methods known to one of skill in the art.
In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition contains from about 0.001% (w/w) to about 1% (w/w) of a dimer of Compound 1, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, after a stability test for about 10 days, or about 1 month, or about 2 months, or about 3 months, or about 6 months, or about 12 months, or about 18 months, or about 24 months. In some embodiments, the stability test is conducted at ambient temperature, or at a temperature greater than or equal to about 25° C., or at a temperature of about 25° C., or about 50° C., or about 60° C., or between about 50° C. to about 70° C., and/or under relative humidity conditions of about 50%, or about 60%, or about 70%, or greater than about 70%, and/or under exposure to light, e.g., visible light.
In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions described herein demonstrate improved stability of the compound of Formula I or Compound 1, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, (active agent) upon storage or under stability testing conditions relative to substantially the same formulation without the adsorbing agent. In some embodiments, the storage time and stability testing conditions are those described herein.
In some embodiments, the present invention also relates to methods of making the pharmaceutical compositions. Such methods may comprise first pre-blending or re-blending a compound of Formula I or Compound 1, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, with a suitable adsorbing agent. The present methods may also comprise first pre-blending a compound of Formula I or Compound 1, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, with a suitable adsorbing agent prior to formulation into a dosage form.

Suitable additives include, but are not limited to, diluents, binders, vehicles, carriers, excipients, binders, disintegrating agents, lubricants, swelling agents, solubilizing agents, wicking agents, cooling agents, preservatives, stabilizers, sweeteners, flavors, and polymers. While any pharmaceutically acceptable additive is contemplated by the present disclosure, it should be understood that the additives selected for compounding with coated particles of a compound of Formula (I) or Compound 1, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, should not defeat the stability objectives of the present disclosure. Even though some pharmaceutically acceptable additives may cause degradation of a compound of Formula (I) or Compound 1, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, such additives may be suitable for the pharmaceutical compositions described herein as long as such additives do not increase dimer formation (relative to the formulation without the further additive) as it is combined with a blending agent, or upon storage, or in vivo.

The reaction mixture was filtered, and the residue was washed with THE until compound 2b was not detected in the filtrate (by thin layer chromatography (TLC)). The filtrate was combined and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was then re-dissolved in ethyl acetate (300 kg) and was washed with water until a neutral pH was reached. The organic layer was separated, dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford the title compound, which was used directly for next step without further purification.

The mixture was heated at reflux until the (2-(3-fluoro-4-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)phenylamino)-4-(3-nitrophenoxy)-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7-yl)methyl pivalate was completely dissolved and then was stirred for another 30 min at ˜65° C. At this point, the hot water was removed from jacket, and replaced with cold alcohol (−10˜−15° C.) to cool the reactor. When the temperature inside the reactor reached 10-18° C., a NaOH solution (2.5 M, 2.1 L) was added drop-wise into the reaction over a ˜1 h period. The temperature was kept below 20° C. during the addition. After the addition was completed, the reaction mixture was stirred between 15-20° C. for another ˜5 h. At this point, an in-process HPLC analysis indicated that the (2-(3-fluoro-4-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)phenylamino)-4-(3-nitrophenoxy)-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7-yl)methyl pivalate was completely consumed and that there was a partially de-protected intermediate (MW=463.5±30) (less than 10%) in the reaction mixture. The reaction mixture was cooled to 0-5° C., and water (12 L) was added drop-wise into the reactor over 60 min. The temperature was kept below 20° C. during the addition of the water. After the addition of the water, the reaction mixture was stirred for another 15 min. The resulting precipitate (crude product) was collected, washed with water (2 L), and dried under vacuum. The crude material was re-dissolved in ethyl acetate (30 L). The resulting solution was washed with water (10 L ×3) and brine (10 L ×1). The organic layer was passed through a pad of diatomaceous earth to remove the residual insoluble material. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure at 38-42° C. until the volume of the remaining solution was around 5 L.
