[0002] FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0003] The present disclosure relates to the fields of chemistry and medicine, more particularly to processes for making 4-(2-chloro-4-methoxy-5-methylphenyl)-N-[(1S)-2-cyclopropyl-1-(3-fluoro-4- methylphenyl )ethyl] -5-methyl-N-prop-2-ynyl- 1 ,3-thiazol-2-amine (Compound 1), pharmaceutically acceptable salts, and crystalline forms thereof, for the treatment of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH).
[0004] BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0005] Classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is a disease that includes a group of autosomal recessive disorders that result in an enzyme deficiency that alters the production of adrenal steroids due to 21 -hydroxylase deficiency, a condition that results in little or no cortisol biosynthesis. One clinical manifestation of the absence of cortisol is the lack of feedback inhibition of pituitary adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) secretion. Increased ACTH levels cause adrenal hyperplasia and the enzyme mutation causes a shunting of cortisol precursor steroids to alternate pathways. Most notably, the shunting of androgens leads to virilization and other developmental complications in females and the over-accumulation of ACTH is associated with the formation of testicular adrenal rest tumors in males. In addition, since the same enzyme (21 -hydroxylase) is used in the pathway for the biosynthesis of the mineralocorticoids, a number of these patients suffer from aldosterone deficiency which can result in dehydration and death due to salt-wasting. The prevalence of classic 21- hydroxylase deficiency CAH in the US general population, based on newborn screening, has been documented as 1:10,000 to 1:20,800 (Trakakis et al., “An update to 21 -hydroxylase deficient congenital adrenal hyperplasia,” Gynecol. Endocrinol. (2010) 26(1):63-71; Hertzberg et al., “Birth prevalence rates of newborn screening disorders in relation to screening practices in the United States,” / . Pediatr. (2011) 159(4):555-560).
[0006] Pediatric patients from birth through adolescence, and females in particular, appear to be the most vulnerable population of CAH sufferers and represent the subgroup of patients with the greatest unmet medical need (Cheng and Speiser, “Treatment outcomes in congenital adrenal hyperplasia,”
[0007] Adv. Pediatr. (2012) 59(1):269-281; Merke and Poppas, “Management of adolescents with congenital adrenal hyperplasia,” Lancet Diabetes Endocrinol. (2013) 1(4):341 -352). Excessive androgen production in these younger patients results in early onset puberty and adrenarche, changes in skeletal maturation patterns, short stature caused by premature growth plate fusion, as well as significant hirsutism and acne problems. While survival is properly ensured through steroid replacement strategies based on physiologic dosing of glucocorticoids (e.g., hydrocortisone) and mineralocorticoids (e.g., fludrocortisone), these doses are often inadequate to suppress the accumulating ACTH and overproduction of progestogens and androgens (e.g., 17-hydroxyprogesterone [17-OHP], androstenedione, and testosterone). The uncontrolled symptoms of androgen excess, indeed, have a substantial impact on the day-to-day functioning and development of these patients.
[0008] Currently, exogenous corticosteroids are the standard of care for treating patients with classic CAH. This treatment is used to correct the cortisol deficiency and reduce the excessive ACTH levels and androgen excess. However, the dose and duration of steroid use required to suppress ACTH are typically well above the normal physiological level used for cortisol replacement alone (as in patients with Addison’s disease). This increased exposure to glucocorticoids can lead to iatrogenic Cushing’s syndrome, increased cardiovascular risk factors, glucose intolerance, reduced growth velocity, and decreased bone mineral density in CAH patients (Elnecave et al, “Bone mineral density in girls with classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to CYP21 deficiency,” J. Pediatr. Endocrinol. Metab. (2008) 21(12): 1155-1162; King et al., “Long-term corticosteroid replacement and bone mineral density in adult women with classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia,” J. Clin. Endocrinol. Metab. (2006) 91(3):865-869; and Migeon and Wisniewski, “Congenital adrenal hyperplasia owing to 21- hydroxylase deficiency. Growth, development, and therapeutic considerations,” Endocrinol Metab. Clin. North Am. (2001) 30(1): 193-206).
[0009] It has been demonstrated in clinical trials that orally active compounds that block CRFi, such as 4-(2-chloro-4-methoxy-5-methylphenyl)-N-[( 1S)-2-cyclopropyl- l-(3-fluoro-4-methylphenyl)ethyl]- 5-methyl-JV-prop-2-ynyl-l,3-thiazol-2-amine (Compound 1), provide a reduction from baseline in 17- hydroxyprogesterone ( 17-OHP) and androstenedione levels in amounts believed to allow use of lower, more physiologic doses of glucocorticoid (e.g. hydrocortisone) in patients with CAH. The structure of Compound 1 is shown below:

[0119] For XRPD, the relative intensities of the peaks can vary, depending upon the sample preparation technique, the sample mounting procedure and the instrument employed. Moreover, instrument variation and other factors can often affect the 2Θ values. Therefore, the peak assignments of diffraction patterns can vary by plus or minus about 0.2° (i.e., ± about 0.2°). For TGA, the temperature features reported herein can vary by plus or minus about 5°C (i.e., ± about 5°C). The TGA % weight changes reported herein over a specified temperature range can vary by plus or minus about 2% weight change (i.e., ± about 2% weight change) due to, for example, variations in sample quality and sample size. All X-ray powder diffraction patterns (diffractograms) were obtained using Cu-Ka radiation.
[0120] Further characterization with respect to hygroscopicity of the crystalline form can be gauged by, for example, Gravimetric Vapor Sorption (GVS). The GVS features reported herein can vary by plus or minus about 5% relative humidity (i.e., ± about 5% relative humidity). The GVS features reported herein can also vary by plus or minus about 2% weight change (i.e., ± about 2% weight change).

[0133] It is understood that peak intensities can vary from one diflfractogram to another for the same crystalline form based on any number of factors that are known to those skilled in the art, such as, preferred orientation effects, preparation technique, the sample mounting procedure, the instrument employed, etc. In some instances, peak intensities can be rather dramatical. Accordingly, the diffraction peak intensities shown herein are illustrative and identical diffraction peak intensities are not necessarily required. One example is the XRPD for Form I shown in Figure 7 showing substantially the same peak positions but dramatic peak intensity differences. One skilled in the art would understand that Figure 1 and Figure 7 are the XRPD’s for Form I, despite the differences in the peak intensities. Similarly, those skilled in the art would readily be capable of comparing the diffractograms provided herein with a diflfractogram generated for an unknown crystal form and confirm whether the difflractogram is characterizing the same crystal form as provided herein or a different form.

[0474] A chemical element has an atomic number defined by the number of protons within the atom’s nucleus. Each atomic number identifies a specific element, but not the isotope; an atom of a given element can have a wide range in its number of neutrons. The number of both protons and neutrons in the nucleus is the atom's mass number, and each isotope of a given element has a different mass number. A compound wherein one or more atoms have an isotopic distribution for a chemical element in proportional amounts different to those usually found in nature is commonly referred to as being an isotopically labeled compound. Each chemical element as represented in a compound structure can include any isotopic distribution of said element. For example, in a compound structure a hydrogen atom can be explicitly disclosed or understood to be present in the compound. At any position of the compound that a hydrogen atom can be present, the hydrogen atom can be an isotopic distribution of hydrogen, including but not limited to protium (1H ) and deuterium (2H) in proportional amounts to those usually found in nature and in proportional amounts different to those usually found in nature.
