Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a crystal form of a pyridopyrrole compound, and a preparation method and application of the crystal form. Background Art

[0002] Tumor development is often accompanied by excessive cell activation and persistent proliferation. Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) play a crucial role in regulating the cell cycle and transcriptional processes, mediated by intracellular and extracellular signals. In cancer cells, CDK-cyclin activity is often dysregulated. Possible causes include overactivation of signaling pathways, overexpression of cyclins, abnormal CDK amplification, and inactivation or loss of endogenous inhibitors. These findings have inspired the development of tumor treatment technologies through the continuous search for novel CDK inhibitors.

[0003] CDK9, a member of the CDK family, is primarily involved in transcriptional regulation. Heterodimers composed of CDK9 and cyclins (T1, T2a, T2b, and K) form the positive transcription elongation factor (p-TEFb), with approximately 80% of CDK9 binding to cyclin T1. P-TEFb regulates transcriptional elongation by phosphorylating the carboxy-terminal domain of RNA polymerase II, primarily at Ser-2. CDK9 inhibition and transcriptional repression lead to the rapid depletion of short-lived mRNA transcripts and associated proteins (including Myc and Mcl-1), resulting in the death of cancer cells that are highly dependent on these anti-apoptotic proteins. Therefore, targeting CDK9 represents a therapeutic strategy for tumor types that are highly dependent on these anti-apoptotic proteins.

[0004] Currently, CDK9 small molecule inhibitors have entered clinical research for cancer treatment, including Bayer's BAY1251152 and AstraZeneca's AZD4573. These patents include WO2012160034, WO2014076091, WO2009047359, WO2011110612, and US2016376287.

[0005]

[0006] Although much effort has been made to develop CDK9 inhibitors for the treatment of cancer and other diseases, no drugs targeting this target have been marketed to date. Among the drugs undergoing clinical trials, the most common clinically significant grade 3 / 4 and dose-limiting adverse side effect of BAY1251152 is neutropenia, while AZD4573 has poor kinase selectivity and metabolism, limiting its efficacy. Therefore, there is still an urgent need to develop novel, safer and more effective CDK9 inhibitors that can treat a variety of cancers, including leukemia and lymphoma. Summary of the Invention

The mixture was purged with nitrogen three times and then heated to 80°C for 4.0 hours. The reaction was complete as monitored by LCMS and HPLC. The reaction mixture was cooled to 15°C and slowly poured into water (2.5 L) while stirring. A large amount of solid precipitated. The solid was filtered, and the filter cake was washed with water (1 L) and dried to afford the crude product. The crude product was slurried with ethanol (2.0 L).
