Description
PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS COMPRISING AZD5305 The present disclosure relates to pharmaceutical compositions suitable for oral administration, and more particularly to pharmaceutical tablets comprising the compound known as “AZD5305” or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. BackgroundPARP family of enzymes play an important role in a number of cellular processes, such as replication, recombination, chromatin remodeling, and DNA damage repair (O’Connor 2015). Examples of PARP inhibitors and their mechanism of action are taught in e.g. WO2004 / 080976. PARP1 and PARP2 are the most extensively studied PARPs for their role in DNA damage repair. PARP1 is activated by DNA damage breaks and functions to catalyse the addition of poly (ADP-ribose) (PAR) chains to target proteins. This post-translational modification, known as PARylation, mediates the recruitment of additional DNA repair factors to DNA lesions. Following completion of this recruitment role, PARP auto-PARylation triggers the release of bound PARP from DNA to allow access to other DNA repair proteins to complete repair. Thus, the binding of PARP to damaged sites, its catalytic activity, and its eventual release from DNA are all important steps for a cancer cell to respond to DNA damage caused by chemotherapeutic agents and radiation therapy (Bai 2015). Inhibition of PARP family enzymes has been exploited as a strategy to selectively kill cancer cells by inactivating complementary DNA repair pathways. A number of pre-clinical and clinical studies have demonstrated that tumour cells bearing deleterious alterations of BRCA1 or BRCA2, key tumour suppressor proteins involved in double-strand DNA break (DSB) repair by homologous recombination (HR), are selectively sensitive to small molecule inhibitors of the PARP family of DNA repair enzymes. Such tumours have deficient homologous recombination repair (HRR) pathways and are dependent on PARP enzymes function for survival. Although PARP inhibitor therapy has predominantly targeted BRCA-mutated cancers, PARP inhibitors have been tested clinically in non-BRCA-mutant tumors, those which exhibit homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) (Turner 2004). It is believed that PARP inhibitors having improved selectivity for PARP1 may possess improved efficacy and reduced toxicity compared to other clinical PARP1 / 2 inhibitors. It is believed also that selective strong inhibition of PARP1 would lead to trapping of PARP1 on DNA, resulting in DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) through collapse of replication forks in S-phase. It is believed also that PARP1-DNA trapping is an effective mechanism for selectively killing tumour cells having HRD. “AZD5305” refers to a compound with the chemical name 5‑{4-[(7-ethyl-6-oxo‑5,6-dihydro‑1,5-naphthyridin-3-yl)methyl]piperazin-1-yl}‑N‑methylpyridine-2-carboxamide and structure shown below:AZD5305 is a potent and selective PARP1 inhibitor and PARP1-DNA trapper with excellent in vivo efficacy. AZD5305 is highly selective for PARP1 over other PARP family members, with good secondary pharmacology and physicochemical properties and excellent pharmacokinetics in preclinical species, and with reduced effects on human bone marrow progenitor cells in vitro. The synthesis of AZD5305 is described in Johannes 2021 and in WO2021 / 013735, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety. To deliver AZD5305 to patients, formulations need to be developed which are stable and have good dissolution properties.

In some embodiments, the cancer treated may be deficient in Homologous Recombination (HR) dependent DNA DSB repair activity. The HR dependent DNA DSB repair pathway repairs double-strand breaks (DSBs) in DNA via homologous mechanisms to reform a continuous DNA helix (Khanna and Jackson 2001). The components of the HR dependent DNA DSB repair pathway include, but are not limited to, ATM (NM_000051), RAD51 (NM_002875), RAD51L1 (NM_002877), RAD51C (NM_002876), RAD51L3 (NM_002878), DMC1 (NM_007068), XRCC2 (NM_005431), XRCC3 (NM_005432), RAD52 (NM_002879), RAD54L (NM_003579), RAD54B (NM_012415), BRCA1 (NM_007295), BRCA2 (NM_000059), RAD50 (NM_005732), MRE11A (NM_005590) and NBS1 (NM_002485). Other proteins involved in the HR dependent DNA DSB repair pathway include regulatory factors such as EMSY (Hughes-Davies 2003). HR components are also described in Wood 2001. A cancer which is deficient in HR dependent DNA DSB repair may comprise or consist of one or more cancer cells which have a reduced or abrogated ability to repair DNA DSBs through that pathway, relative to normal cells i.e. the activity of the HR dependent DNA DSB repair pathway may be reduced or abolished in the one or more cancer cells. The activity of one or more components of the HR dependent DNA DSB repair pathway may be abolished in the one or more cancer cells of an individual having a cancer which is deficient in HR dependent DNA DSB repair. Components of the HR dependent DNA DSB repair pathway are well characterised in the art (see for example, Wood 2001) and include the components listed above. In some embodiments, the cancer cells may have a BRCA1 and / or a BRCA2 deficient phenotype i.e. BRCA1 and / or BRCA2 activity is reduced or abolished in the cancer cells. Cancer cells with this phenotype may be deficient in BRCA1 and / or BRCA2, i.e. expression and / or activity of BRCA1 and / or BRCA2 may be reduced or abolished in the cancer cells, for example by means of mutation or polymorphism in the encoding nucleic acid, or by means of amplification, mutation or polymorphism in a gene encoding a regulatory factor, for example the EMSY gene which encodes a BRCA2 regulatory factor (Hughes-Davies 2003). BRCA1 and BRCA2 are known tumour suppressors whose wild-type alleles are frequently lost in tumours of heterozygous carriers (Jasin 2002; Tutt 2002). The association of BRCA1 and / or BRCA2 mutations with breast cancer is well-characterised in the art (Radice 2002). Amplification of the EMSY gene, which encodes a BRCA2 binding factor, is also known to be associated with breast and ovarian cancer. Carriers of mutations in BRCA1 and / or BRCA2 are also at elevated risk of certain cancers, including breast, ovary, pancreas, prostate, hematological, gastrointestinal and lung cancer. In some embodiments, the individual is heterozygous for one or more variations, such as mutations and polymorphisms, in BRCA1 and / or BRCA2 or a regulator thereof. The detection of variation in BRCA1 and BRCA2 is well-known in the art and is described, for example in EP 699 754, EP 705 903, Neuhausen and Ostrander 1992; Chappuis and Foulkes 2002; Janatová 2003; Jancárková 2003). Determination of amplification of the BRCA2 binding factor EMSY is described in Hughes-Davies 2003. Mutations and polymorphisms associated with cancer may be detected at the nucleic acid level by detecting the presence of a variant nucleic acid sequence or at the protein level by detecting the presence of a variant (i.e. a mutant or allelic variant) polypeptide. In some embodiments, AZD5305, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered as a monotherapy.In some embodiments, AZD5305, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered in combination with one or more other agents which can be used in treating diseases and conditions in which inhibition of PARP1 or PARP 1 function is of therapeutic significance. ExamplesThe compounds of the application will now be further explained by reference to the following non-limiting examples. Example 1 Tablets with the following composition were made using roller compaction: ComponentFunctionQuantity(mg) AZD5305Active20.0 Microcrystalline celluloseFiller55.0 Calcium hydrogen phosphate anhydrousFiller18.5 Hydroxypropyl cellulose low substitutedDisintegrant5.0 Magnesium stearateLubricant1.5 Tablet core weight100.0 Tablets were tested to confirm AZD5305 strength. A gradient reverse phase LC method was used with mobile phases consisting of ammonium hydroxide in water and ammonium hydroxide in acetonitrile, a USP L1 stationary phase and UV detection. The conditions were selective to AZD5305 in the presence of excipients, synthetic impurities and degradation products. Quantification was performed against an external AZD5305 reference standard, analysed using the same conditions on the same system. AZD5305 was measured to be within 95-105% of the assay target value. The amount of AZD5305 per tablet was found to be 20.06 mg, i.e. 100.3% of target strength. The dissolution of these tablets was measured in a standard test with greater than 80% dissolution occurring in 900 ml of pH1.2 media in a USP (United States Pharmacopoeia) apparatus 2 at 75rpm at 30 minutes.
