The present disclosure relates to new salts of Larotrectinib and solid state forms thereof, processes for the preparation thereof, pharmaceutical formulations/compositions thereof, and methods of use thereof.
Larotrectinib, (S)—N-(5-((R)-2-(2,5-difluorophenyl)pyrrolidin-1-yl)pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-3-yl)-3-hydroxypyrrolidine-1-carboxamide, having the following formula:
is an ATP-competitive inhibitor of tropomyosin-related kinase (TRK) family of receptor kinases, which is being developed by Array BioPharma Inc. for the treatment of cancer.
Larotrectinib was described in U.S. Pat. No. 8,513,263. The hydrogen sulfate salt of Larotrectinib is described in U.S. Pat. No. 9,127,013. A crystalline form HS-1 of the Hydrogen Sulfate is described in International Application No. WO2016077841.
Polymorphism, the occurrence of different crystal forms, is a property of some molecules and molecular complexes. A single compound, like Larotrectinib, may give rise to a variety of polymorphs having distinct crystal structures and physical properties like melting point, thermal behaviors (e.g. measured by thermogravimetric analysis—“TGA”, or differential scanning calorimetry—“DSC”), X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) pattern, infrared absorption fingerprint, Raman absorption fingerprint, and solid state (13C—) NMR spectrum. One or more of these techniques may be used to distinguish different polymorphic forms of a compound.
Different salts and solid state forms (including solvated forms) of an active pharmaceutical ingredient may possess different properties. Such variations in the properties of different salts and solid state forms and solvates may provide a basis for improving formulation, for example, by facilitating better processing or handling characteristics, improving the dissolution profile, or improving stability (polymorphic as well as chemical stability) and shelf-life. These variations in the properties of different salts and solid state forms may also provide improvements to the final dosage form, for instance, if they serve to improve bioavailability. Different salts and solid state forms and solvates of an active pharmaceutical ingredient may also give rise to a variety of polymorphs or crystalline forms, which may in turn provide additional opportunities to use variations in the properties and characteristics of a solid active pharmaceutical ingredient for providing an improved product.
Discovering new salts and solid state forms and solvates of a pharmaceutical product can provide materials having desirable processing properties, such as ease of handling, ease of processing, storage stability, and ease of purification or as desirable intermediate crystal forms that facilitate conversion to other salts or polymorphic forms. New salts, polymorphic forms and solvates of a pharmaceutically useful compound can also provide an opportunity to improve the performance characteristics of a pharmaceutical product (dissolution profile, bioavailability, etc.). It enlarges the repertoire of materials that a formulation scientist has available for formulation optimization, for example by providing a product with different properties, e.g., a different crystal habit, higher crystallinity or polymorphic stability which may offer better processing or handling characteristics, improved dissolution profile, or improved shelf-life. For at least these reasons, there is a need for additional salts and solid state forms (including solvated forms) of Larotrectinib.

A crystal form may be referred to herein as being characterized by graphical data “as depicted in” a Figure. Such data include, for example, powder X-ray diffractograms and solid state NMR spectra. As is well-known in the art, the graphical data potentially provides additional technical information to further define the respective solid state form (a so-called “fingerprint”) which can not necessarily be described by reference to numerical values or peak positions alone. In any event, the skilled person will understand that such graphical representations of data may be subject to small variations, e.g., in peak relative intensities and peak positions due to factors such as variations in instrument response and variations in sample concentration and purity, which are well known to the skilled person. Nonetheless, the skilled person would readily be capable of comparing the graphical data in the Figures herein with graphical data generated for an unknown crystal form and confirm whether the two sets of graphical data are characterizing the same crystal form or two different crystal forms.
Larotrectinib salts or solid state form thereof referred to herein as being characterized by graphical data “as depicted in” a Figure will thus be understood to include any Larotrectinib salt, characterized with the graphical data having such small variations, as are well known to the skilled person, in comparison with the Figure.
A solid state form (or polymorph) may be referred to herein as polymorphically pure or as substantially free of any other solid state (or polymorphic) forms. As used herein in this context, the expression “substantially free of any other forms” will be understood to mean that the solid state form contains about 20% (w/w) or less, about 10% (w/w) or less, about 5% (w/w) or less, about 2% (w/w) or less, about 1% (w/w) or less, or about 0% of any other forms of the subject compound as measured, for example, by XRPD. Thus, solid states of Larotrectinib salts described herein as substantially free of any other solid state forms would be understood to contain greater than about 80% (w/w), greater than about 90% (w/w), greater than about 95% (w/w), greater than about 98% (w/w), greater than about 99% (w/w), or about 100% of the subject solid state form of Larotrectinib salts. In some embodiments of the disclosure, the described solid state forms of Larotrectinib salts may contain from about 1% to about 20% (w/w), from about 5% to about 20% (w/w), or from about 5% to about 10% (w/w) of one or more solid state forms of Larotrectinib salts of the present disclosure or other salts of Larotrectinib.
As used herein, unless stated otherwise, XRPD peaks reported herein are measured using CuKα radiation, λ=1.5418 Å, in some cases, XRPD peaks reported herein are measured using CuK α radiation, λ=1.5418 Å, at a temperature of 25±3° C.
As used herein, the term “isolated” in reference to solid state forms of Larotrectinib salts of the present disclosure corresponds to solid state form of Larotrectinib salts that is physically separated from the reaction mixture in which it is formed.
A thing, e.g., a reaction mixture, may be characterized herein as being at, or allowed to come to “room temperature”, often abbreviated “RT.” This means that the temperature of the thing is close to, or the same as, that of the space, e.g., the room or fume hood, in which the thing is located. Typically, room temperature is from about 20° C. to about 30° C., or about 22° C. to about 27° C., or about 25° C.
A process or step may be referred to herein as being carried out “overnight.” This refers to a time interval, e.g., for the process or step, that spans the time during the night, when that process or step may not be actively observed. This time interval is from about 8 to about 20 hours, or about 10 to about 18 hours, typically about 16 hours.
As used herein, the expression “wet crystalline form” refers to a polymorph that was not dried using any conventional techniques to remove residual solvent. Examples for such conventional techniques can be, but not limited to, evaporation, vacuum drying, oven drying, drying under nitrogen flow, and the like.
As used herein, the expression “dry crystalline form” refers to a polymorph that was dried using any conventional techniques to remove residual solvent. Examples of such conventional techniques can be, but are not limited to, evaporation, vacuum drying, oven drying, drying under nitrogen flow, and the like.
As used herein, and unless stated otherwise, the term “anhydrous” in relation to a Larotrectinib salts or a crystalline Larotrectinib salts relates to a Larotrectinib salts or crystalline Larotrectinib salts which does not include any crystalline water (or other solvents) in a defined, stoichiometric amount within the crystal. Moreover, an “anhydrous” form does not contain more than about 1% (w/w) of either water or organic solvents as measured for example by TGA.
The term “solvate”, as used herein and unless indicated otherwise, refers to a crystal form that incorporates a solvent in the crystal structure. When the solvent is water, the solvate is often referred to as a “hydrate.” The solvent in a solvate may be present in either a stoichiometric or in a non-stoichiometric amount.
The amount of solvent employed in a chemical process, e.g., a reaction or a crystallization may be referred to herein as a number of “volumes” or “vol” or “V.” For example, a material may be referred to as being suspended in 10 volumes (or 10 vol or 10V) of a solvent. In this context, this expression would be understood to mean milliliters of the solvent per gram of the material being suspended, such that suspending 5 grams of a material in 10 volumes of a solvent means that the solvent is used in an amount of 10 milliliters of the solvent per gram of the material that is being suspended or, in this example, 50 mL of the solvent. In another context, the term “v/v” may be used to indicate the number of volumes of a solvent that are added to a liquid mixture based on the volume of that mixture. For example, adding (methyl tert-butyl ether) MTBE (1.5 v/v) to a 100 ml reaction mixture would indicate that 150 mL of MTBE was added.
As used herein the term non-hygroscopic in relation to Larotrectinib salts or crystalline forms thereof, refers to less than about 1.0% (w/w) absorption of water at about 25° C. and about 80% relative humidity (RH), by the Larotrectinib salts or crystalline forms thereof as determined for example by TGA. Water can be for example atmospheric water.
As used herein, the term “reduced pressure” refers to a pressure of about 10 mbar to about 500 mbar.
As used herein, and unless indicated otherwise, the term “thermo-dynamical stability” in relation to salts and solid state forms of Larotrectinib salts refers to resistance of the solid state form to polymorphic conversion under certain conditions, for example, heating, melting or dissolving. In some embodiments, the term refers to less than about 20% (w/w), about 10% (w/w), about 5% (w/w), about 1% (w/w), about 0.5% (w/w), or about 0% (w/w) conversion of the crystalline Larotrectinib salts to any other solid state form of Larotrectinib salts of the present disclosure or other salt thereof as measured by XRPD. In some embodiments, the conversion is about 1% (w/w) to about 20% (w/w), about 1% (w/w) to about 10% (w/w) or about 1% (w/w) to about 5% (w/w).
