Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of pharmaceutical technology, and in particular relates to the crystal forms of thiophene pyrimidine compounds and their preparation methods. Background Technology
[0002] Hematologic malignancies have a high incidence rate; in the United States alone, approximately 184,720 new cases of hematologic malignancies were diagnosed in 2023. New cases of leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma accounted for approximately 9.4% of all new cancer diagnoses in the US in 2023. Specifically, leukemia accounted for 32%, lymphoma for 48%, and myeloma for 19%. It is estimated that 1,629,474 people in the US have or are recovering from hematologic malignancies, including leukemia, lymphoma, myeloma, myelodysplastic syndromes, and myeloproliferative neoplasms (Leukemia and Lymphoma Society 2023). Statistics from the Chinese Anti-Cancer Association show that approximately 84,000 new lymphoma patients are diagnosed in my country each year, with over 47,000 deaths, and this number is increasing at a rate of 5% annually. In addition, approximately 10,000-15,000 new myeloma patients and over 20,000 new cases of acute and chronic lymphocytic leukemia are diagnosed in my country each year. Currently, there are no effective drugs for patients with advanced relapsed or drug-resistant lymphoma, myeloma, and lymphocytic leukemia.
[0003] Phosphoinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and histone deacetylase (HDAC) are important targets for tumor cell survival. HDAC inhibitors exert inhibitory effects on multiple targets of tumor cell messengers through epigenetic regulatory mechanisms. PI3K inhibitors and HDAC inhibitors have significant anti-cancer effects, which have been clinically validated (Ho, T et al., Journal of Medicinal Chemistry 63, 12460-12484, 2020; Zhang, M et al., Chemical Science 11, 5855-5865, 2020; Vanhaesebroeck, B et al., Nature Reviews Drug Discovery 20, 741-769, 2021). Several known inhibitors of phosphoinositol 3-kinase and histone deacetylase, including Copanisib, Alpelisib, Idelalisib, Voronostat, and Belinostat, which have been approved by the US FDA, cannot simultaneously inhibit phosphoinositol 3-kinase and histone deacetylase, and are less effective in treating refractory or relapsed hematologic malignancies, thus failing to meet the increasing clinical needs.
[0004] Thiophene pyrimidine compounds (Compound A) are dual-target inhibitors of HDAC (histone deacetylase) and PI3K (phosphoinositol 3-kinase). By selectively inhibiting the synergistic tumor cell messenger core protein kinase target PI3K and the epigenetic target HDAC, they disrupt the tumor cell messenger network, thereby exerting a potent killing effect on various tumor cells. This inhibitor has shown strong and effective inhibition of tumor growth in various hematologic and solid xenograft tumor animal models, particularly in various hematologic B-cell malignancies, and its safety evaluation experiments have demonstrated good safety. It can be used for the effective treatment of patients with advanced relapsed or drug-resistant lymphoma, myeloma, and lymphocytic leukemia. Its structural formula is as follows:

This process resulted in inconsistent crystal forms across different batches, and the impurity content was relatively high. The improved process in Example 1 involved reacting compound A with a hydrogen chloride / methyl tert-butyl ether solution in the presence of methanol and water, followed by crystallization. This method effectively controlled the impurity content and maintained consistent crystal forms across multiple batches.

[0183] Example 2. Preparation of crystal form II of compound (I)
[0184]
[0185] 900 mL of EtOH was added to a 2 L reactor, followed by 300 mL of purified water. 120 g of compound (I) crystal form I was added, and the mixture was stirred at 25 °C for 96 hours. After filtration, 200 mL of EtOH was added to wash the filter cake. The mixture was then vacuum dried at 50 °C for 20 hours to obtain 108 g of compound (I) crystal form II solid, with a molar yield of 90% and a chlorine content of 12%.
[0186] The XRPD pattern of crystal form II of compound (I) is shown in [reference needed]. Figure 3 The peak positions are listed in Table 3; the DSC spectrum is shown in Table 3. Figure 4 .

[0190] Example 3. Preparation of crystal form III of compound (I)
[0191]
[0192] 10g of crystal form I of compound (I) and 200ml of MeOH were added to a 500ml reactor. The mixture was stirred at 25℃ for 10 minutes, then at 50℃ for 30 minutes. The temperature was slowly lowered from 50℃ to 5℃ at a rate of 0.1℃ / min and stirred for 3 hours. The mixture was filtered, and 20mL of MeOH was added to wash the filter cake. The mixture was then vacuum dried at 50℃ for 20 hours to obtain 9.2g of crystal form III of compound (I), with a molar yield of 92% and a chlorine content of 12%.
[0193] The XRPD pattern of crystal form III of compound (I) is shown in [reference needed]. Figure 5 The peak positions are listed in Table 4; the DSC spectrum is shown in Table 4. Figure 6 .

[0196]
[0197] Example 4. Comparison of chloride ion content and solubility of crystal forms I, II, and III
[0198] The solubility determination method is as follows: Weigh 5 mg of the sample of the crystal form to be tested into a liquid chromatography vial, add 1 mL of 5% glucose solution. If the compound is basically dissolved, add an appropriate amount of solid compound; otherwise, proceed directly to the next step. Add a stir bar and stir at 25°C / 700 rpm for 24 hours. Transfer the sample to a filtered centrifuge tube, centrifuge at 14000 rpm for 10 min, dilute 100 times, and then analyze the sample content in the liquid chromatography system and calculate the solubility. The content determination method is the same as the content determination method in Example 1.
[0199] The chloride ion content was determined according to the general rules of the 2020 edition of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. <0701> The chlorine content of the crystalline sample was determined by potentiometric titration, and the result was calculated using the weight content correction. The weight content determination method is described in Example 1.
[0200] The results are shown in Table 5 below: Crystal form I is 3 mg / mL hydrochloride, while crystal forms II and III are 2 mg / mL hydrochloride. All three crystal forms have a solubility of ≥4 mg / mL in 5% glucose aqueous solution, meeting the basic solubility requirement for preparing lyophilized injectable formulations (the minimum requirement is 4 mg / mL). If the solubility is too low, it can easily lead to excessively long dissolution time of the compound during the formulation preparation process, drug precipitation after prolonged standing of the solution, or even incomplete dissolution, which is not conducive to the preparation of lyophilized injectable formulations. Among the three crystal forms, crystal forms I and III have much higher solubility in 5% glucose solution than crystal form II, making them easier to prepare lyophilized injectable formulations and thus superior crystal forms.

[0203] Example 5. Stability of sample with crystal form I of compound (I)
[0204] The sample of compound (I) crystal form I was placed in a double-layer pharmaceutical low-density polyethylene bag, each layer was tied with a cable tie, silica gel desiccant (product / desiccant: 5 / 1) was added, and then placed in a single-layer aluminum foil bag and heat-sealed. Finally, it was placed in a plastic bucket and placed under different stability test conditions for a certain period of time. The impurity content of the sample was then tested and compared with the test results of the 0-day sample.
[0205] The experimental results are shown in Table 6 below: Compound (I) crystal form I has good stability.
