Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of crystalline pharmaceutical molecules, and particularly relates to osimertinib cocrystals and their preparation methods and applications. Background Art

[0002] Osimertinib, chemical name: N-[2-[[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl](methyl)amino]-4-methoxy-5-[[4-(1-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)pyrimidin-2-yl]amino]phenyl]prop-2-enamide, English name: N-(2-{[2-(Dimethylamino)ethyl](methyl)amino}-4-methoxy-5-{[4-(1-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)-2-pyrimidinyl]amino}phenyl)acrylamide. CAS No.: 1421373-65-0, and its structural formula is shown as follows:

[0003]

[0004] Lung cancer patients with EGFR or ALK gene mutations can benefit from targeted drugs in terms of survival. However, the efficacy of these drugs is generally very short-lived, and drug resistance occurs within 9 - 11 months. This is because cancer cells can evade the therapeutic activity of EGFR or ALK inhibitors by mutating and changing their growth patterns.

[0005] ADZ9291 developed by AstraZeneca is a third-generation oral, irreversible selective EGFR mutation inhibitor, which can be used for both activating and resistant mutant EGFRs. That is to say, for advanced non-small cell lung cancer patients, 50% of the acquired resistance to anti-EGFR therapy is caused by the T790M mutation, and ADZ9291 can render this challenging mutation ineffective. ADZ9291 has a better therapeutic effect on NSCLC patients with resistance to existing epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) and the T790M mutation.

[0006] Patent CN103702990A discloses the compound structure of AZD9291. This patent also discloses the polymorphs of this compound and its mesylate, including osimertinib mesylate polymorph A and osimertinib mesylate polymorph B. The original research company uses the mesylate of osimertinib for clinical research. However, methanesulfonic acid has high biological toxicity and is not suitable for drug development when there are alternatives. And the mesylate has problems of high hygroscopicity and easy deliquescence in high humidity. Improving the solubility of candidate compounds by salting has become an important means in drug research and development. Compared with the free form of the drug, a suitable salt form of the drug can improve the solubility of the drug, increase physical and chemical stability, and after the drug is salted, its physical properties such as melting point, hygroscopicity, and crystal type can also be improved.

[0007] Patent CN104961731A discloses osimertinib phosphate; Patent CN106432231A discloses osimertinib pharmaceutical salts sulfate, p-toluenesulfonate, tartrate, acetate, and citrate; which overcomes the problems of high toxicity and high hygroscopicity of the mesylate, and the solubility is greatly improved compared with osimertinib. Patent CN107915725A discloses new pharmaceutical salts of osimertinib maleate, fumarate, gluconate, malonate, succinate, and lactate, and Patent CN110483486A discloses osimertinib ketorolac salt, which improves the problem of high hygroscopicity of the mesylate.

[0008] Although numerous osimertinib crystal forms have been disclosed in the existing literature, the systematic research on its crystal forms still needs to be improved, especially for osimertinib cocrystals. There are many reports on other salts now, but their drug-forming properties need to be further studied. Summary of the Invention
