This application claims the priority of Indian Provisional Patent Application No. 3020/CHE/2012, filed Jul. 24, 2012, which is incorporated herein by reference.
The present invention generally relates to solid forms of tyrosine kinase inhibitors, in particular combinations of tyrosine kinase inhibitors with anti-oxidative acids, processes for its preparation and a pharmaceutical compositions containing the same.
Tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) is a pharmaceutical drug that inhibits tyrosine kinase, an enzyme which transports phosphates from ATP to a protein's tyrosine residue. Therefore, a Tyrosine Kinase inhibitor prevents the phosphate groups from being transferred. Research indicates that mutations which make Tyrosine Kinases constantly active can be a contributing factor in the development of cancerous cells. So, when an inhibitor is used, the cell communication and reproduction is reduced, and cancerous cell growth will be reduced to the point of stopping tumor growth.
Several TKIs have been found to have effective antitumor activity and have been approved and were commercially available in various dosage forms and strengths; for example imatinib, gefitinib, erlotinib, sorafenib, nilotinib, dasatinib, lapatinib, sunitinib, etc.
TKIs in pharmaceutical compositions can be prepared in a variety of different forms. Such drugs can be prepared so as to have a variety of different chemical forms including chemical derivatives or salts. Such drugs can also be prepared to have different physical forms. For example, the drugs may be amorphous or may have different crystalline polymorphs, perhaps existing in different solvates or hydrate states. By varying the form of a drug, it is possible to vary the physical properties thereof. For example, crystalline polymorphs typically have different solubilities from one another, such that a more thermodynamically stable polymorph is less soluble than a less thermodynamically stable polymorph. Pharmaceutical polymorphs can also differ in properties such as shelf-life, bioavailability, morphology, vapour pressure, density, color, and compressibility.

EP Patent No. 0564409 discloses Imatinib of Formula II and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof and process for the preparation of the same.
Imatinib is marketed in many countries as its methanesulfonate salt (imatinib mesylate) under the brand name GLIVEC® or GLEEVEC®. The marketed imatinib mesylate was disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 6,894,051 (“the '051 patent”) as its alpha-crystal form and a beta-crystal form. The '051 patent also discloses that the beta-crystal form has the advantage that its flow properties are substantially more favorable than those of the alpha-crystal form.

However, there is no disclosure about physical or pharmaceutical properties of the salts of imatinib.
Although it is known that the preparation of salt forms may improve the physical or pharmaceutical properties of a basic pharmaceutical active compound, it is not possible to predict which salt forms may possess advantages for a particular purpose prior to the actual preparation and characterization of the salt form.
The discovery of new salts and polymorphic forms of Tyrosine kinase inhibitors can provide new opportunities to improve the synthesis and the characteristics of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API). Such discoveries can also enlarge the repertoire of materials that a formulation scientist has available for designing, for example, a pharmaceutical dosage form of a drug with a targeted release profile or other desired characteristic.
Accordingly, there remains a need in the art for novel solid forms of tyrosine kinase inhibitors having greater solubility and bioavailability and having desirable pharmacological, pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic effects.
It has now been surprisingly found that several chemically and morphologically stable novel solid forms of tyrosine kinase inhibitors and polymorphic forms thereof, in particular combinations of tyrosine kinase inhibitors with anti-oxidative acids could be prepared, in spite of the fact that a lot of salts of tyrosine kinase inhibitors and polymorphic forms thereof had already been known.

The accompanying drawings, which are incorporated in and constitute a part of this specification, illustrate several embodiments of the invention and together with the description, serve to explain the principles of the invention.
The present invention addresses a need in the art by providing new solid forms of tyrosine kinase inhibitors; in particular combinations of tyrosine kinase inhibitors with anti-oxidative acids and processes for their preparation.
The present inventors have identified novel solid forms of tyrosine kinase inhibitors, particularly in combination with anti-oxidative acids. These solid forms may be in the form of salts, polymorphs of salts, co-crystals, or polymorphs of co-crystals.
It has surprisingly been found that when a tyrosine kinase inhibitor and a selected anti-oxidant acid component are allowed to form a solid form, the resulting solid form may give rise to improved properties of the tyrosine kinase inhibitors, as compared to its free form (including free base, hydrates, solvates etc.), particularly with respect to solubility, dissolution, bioavailability, stability, Cmax, Tmax, processability, longer lasting therapeutic plasma concentration, hygroscopicity, decrease in form diversity (including polymorphism and crystal habit), change in morphology or crystal habit, etc. For example, a solid form of tyrosine kinase inhibitor is particularly advantageous where the original tyrosine kinase inhibitor is insoluble or sparingly soluble in water. The solid form properties conferred upon the tyrosine kinase inhibitors are also useful because the bioavailability of the tyrosine kinase inhibitors can be improved and the plasma concentration and/or serum concentration of the tyrosine kinase inhibitors can be improved.
The anti-oxidant acids used in the present invention are not only intended for formation of pharmaceutically acceptable solid forms of tyrosine kinase inhibitors, but can advantageously be useful for therapeutical use, for example, the anti-oxidant acids can stabilize the body's metabolism by defending against damage caused by free radicals. The solid forms of tyrosine kinase inhibitors with anti-oxidant acids are more effective with respect to therapeutic activity of the tyrosine kinase inhibitors as compared to tyrosine kinase inhibitor solid forms without any anti-oxidant acid described in the prior art.
Accordingly, in one embodiment, the present invention provides solid forms of a tyrosine kinase inhibitor in combination with an anti-oxidative acids (herein after referred to as “solid forms of tyrosine kinase inhibitor”).
The ratio of tyrosine kinase inhibitors to anti-oxidative acid compound may be stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric according to the present invention. For example, 1:1, 1.5:1, 1:1.5, 2:1 and 1:2 ratios of tyrosine kinase inhibitor to anti-oxidative acid are acceptable.
In another embodiment, the present invention provides solid forms of a tyrosine kinase inhibitor in combination with an anti-oxidative acid, where the tyrosine kinase inhibitor can be, but is not limited to, imatinib, gefitinib, erlotinib, sorafenib, nilotinib, dasatinib, lapatinib, sunitinib, or the like.
In another preferred embodiment, the present invention provides solid forms of a tyrosine kinase inhibitor in combination with an anti-oxidative acid, where the tyrosine kinase inhibitor is imatinib or gefitinib.
In another embodiment, the anti-oxidative acid is at least one of anti-oxidative acid compounds known in the art. For example, the anti-oxidative acid can be, but is not limited to benzoic acid derivatives such as p-hydroxy benzoic acid, vanillic acid, syringic acid, 3,4-dihydroxy benzoic acid, and the like; or cinnamic acid derivatives such as p-coumaric acid, ferulic acid, sinapic acid, caffeic acid, and the like.
It is known that the difference in delta pKa value of the tyrosine kinase inhibitor and the anti-oxidative acid indicate whether the anti-oxidative acid compound may form with tyrosine kinase inhibitor as salt form or co-crystals. As per the FDA draft guidelines, if the difference of delta pKa value is more than 3 then the compound may form as salt form whereas co-crystals may be formed if the delta pKa value is less than 3.
It has been found that the delta pKa difference between imatinib and anti-oxidative acids is found to be more than 3 and in the case of gefitinib and anti-oxidative acids is less than 3. The inventors of the present invention label imatinib may form salt with anti-oxidative acids whereas gefitinib may form co-crystals.
In another embodiment, the present invention provides a process for preparing solid forms of tyrosine kinase inhibitors, comprising a) providing a mixture or solution comprising a tyrosine kinase inhibitor either in free base or an another salt form and an anti-oxidative acid; and b) isolating the solid forms of tyrosine kinase inhibitor; wherein the anti-oxidative acid is selected from the group consisting of benzoic acid derivatives such as p-hydroxy benzoic acid, vanillic acid, syringic acid, 3,4-dihydroxy benzoic acid, and the like; and cinnamic acid derivatives such as p-coumaric acid, ferulic acid, sinapic acid, caffeic acid, and the like.
The step of forming a mixture or solution includes any form of tyrosine kinase inhibitor that may be combined in to a suitable solvent at a suitable temperature, then the anti-oxidant acid may be added to the resultant slurry or solution. Alternatively, the mixture may be formed by adding both the tyrosine kinase inhibitor and the anti-oxidative acid at the same time into a suitable solvent.
