[0107] A mixture of diastereoisomers can be separated into its individual diastereoisomers based on their physicochemical differences by methods well known to those skilled in the art, such as by chromatography and / or fractional crystallization. Enantiomers can be separated by reacting the enantiomeric mixture with an appropriate optically active compound (e.g., a chiral auxiliary, such as a chiral alcohol or Mosher's acid chloride), converting the enantiomeric mixture into a diastereomeric mixture, separating the diastereoisomers and converting (e.g., hydrolyzing) the individual diastereoisomers into the corresponding pure enantiomers. Alternatively, a specific enantiomer of the compounds of the invention can be prepared by asymmetric synthesis. Additionally, when the molecule contains a basic functional group (e.g., an amino group) or an acidic functional group (e.g., a carboxylic acid), diastereomeric salts are formed with an appropriate optically active acid or base, followed by fractional crystallization or chromatography as known in the art to separate the diastereoisomers thus formed, and the pure enantiomers are subsequently recovered.

[0537] II. Pharmaceutical Composition and Dosage Considerations

[0538] As used herein, the term "combination (combination / combined)" and related terms refer to the simultaneous or sequential administration of therapeutic agents according to the present disclosure. For example, the compound can be administered together with another therapeutic agent in a separate unit dosage form simultaneously or sequentially or in a single unit dosage form. Therefore, the present disclosure provides a single unit dosage form, which comprises the compound, another therapeutic agent and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, adjuvant or vehicle. When a patient or individual is exposed to two agents at the same time, it is generally believed that two or more agents are administered "in combination". In multiple embodiments, when a patient or individual shows treatment-related levels of two or more agents in a specific target tissue or sample (e.g., in the brain, in serum, etc.) at the same time, it is believed that the agent is administered "in combination".

[0539] When the compounds of the present disclosure are administered together with other agents in a combination therapy, they can be administered to the patient sequentially or simultaneously. Alternatively, a pharmaceutical or prophylactic composition according to the present disclosure may comprise a combination of a compound of Formula I and another therapeutic or prophylactic agent. Alternatively, a pharmaceutical or prophylactic composition according to the present disclosure may comprise a combination of a compound of Formula I-1 and another therapeutic or prophylactic agent. Additional therapeutic agents that are typically administered to treat a specific disease or condition may be referred to as "agents appropriate for the disease or condition being treated."

[0540] In some embodiments, the methods of the present invention include administering a therapeutically effective amount of one or more additional active agents. Combination therapy means that the c-kit inhibitory compound can be used in combination with another therapeutic agent to treat a single disease or condition. In certain embodiments, the compounds of the present invention are administered simultaneously with the administration of another therapeutic agent, which can be administered as a component of a composition comprising the compounds of the present invention, or as a component of a different composition.

[0541] The compounds of the present invention can be administered in combination with other therapeutic agents in a variety of therapeutic applications. The therapeutic applications of interest in combination therapy include those in which the activity of the target c-kit kinase is a cause or compounding factor of disease progression. Thus, the compounds of the present invention can be used in combination therapies in which it is necessary to inhibit the target c-kit kinase in the subject. The compounds used in the compositions and methods of the present disclosure can also be modified by adding appropriate functional groups to enhance selective biological properties. Such modifications are known in the art and include increasing biological penetration in a given biological system (e.g., blood, lymphatic system, or central nervous system), increasing oral availability, increasing solubility to allow administration by injection, changing metabolism, and / or changing excretion rate.

[0542] The terms "treatment" and "therapeutic method" are used interchangeably herein and refer to both: 1) therapeutic treatment or measures that cure, slow down, alleviate symptoms of, and / or halt the progression of a diagnosed pathological condition, disease, or disorder, and 2) prophylactic / preventative measures. Those in need of treatment can include individuals already suffering from a particular medical disease or disorder, as well as those who may eventually acquire the disorder (i.e., those at risk or in need of prophylactic measures).

[0543] As used herein, the term "subject" refers to any individual or patient who performs the methods of the present invention. Generally, the subject is a human, but those skilled in the art will appreciate that the subject can be an animal.

[0552] Pharmaceutically acceptable compositions

[0553] The compounds and compositions according to the methods of the present disclosure are administered in any amount and by any route of administration effective to treat or alleviate the severity of the conditions provided above. The exact amount required will vary from subject to subject, depending on the species, age, and general condition of the subject, the severity of the infection, the specific agent, its mode of administration, and the like. The compounds of the present disclosure are preferably formulated in dosage unit form for ease of administration and uniformity of dosage. As used herein, the expression "dosage unit form" refers to physically discrete dosage units suitable for the patient to be treated. However, it should be understood that the total daily dosage of the compounds and compositions of the present disclosure will be determined by the attending physician within the scope of sound medical judgment. The specific effective dosage level for any particular patient or organism will depend on a variety of factors, including the condition being treated and the severity of the condition; the activity of the specific compound employed; the specific composition employed; the patient's age, weight, general health, sex, and diet; the time of administration, route of administration, and excretion rate of the specific compound employed; the duration of treatment; the drugs used in combination with or in conjunction with the specific compound employed, and similar factors well known in the medical field.

[0554] The pharmaceutically acceptable compositions of the present disclosure can be administered to humans and other animals orally, rectally, parenterally, intracisternal, intravaginal, intraperitoneally, topically (e.g., by powder, ointment, or drops), buccally, as an oral or nasal spray, etc., depending on the severity of the infection being treated. In certain embodiments, the compounds of the present disclosure are administered orally or parenterally at a dosage level of about 0.01 mg / kg to about 50 mg / kg, and preferably about 1 mg / kg to about 25 mg / kg, of the subject's body weight per day, once or more a day to achieve the desired therapeutic effect.

[0555] Liquid dosage forms for oral administration include, but are not limited to, pharmaceutically acceptable emulsions, microemulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups, and elixirs. In addition to the active compound, the liquid dosage form may also contain inert diluents commonly used in the art, such as water or other solvents; solubilizers and emulsifiers, such as ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, ethyl carbonate, ethyl acetate, benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate, propylene glycol, 1,3-butylene glycol, dimethylformamide, oils (especially cottonseed oil, peanut oil, corn oil, germ oil, olive oil, castor oil, and sesame oil), glycerol, tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol, polyethylene glycol, and fatty acid esters of sorbitan and mixtures thereof. In addition to inert diluents, oral compositions may also include adjuvants, such as wetting agents, emulsifiers and suspending agents, sweeteners, flavorings, and aromatics.

[0556] Injectable preparations (e.g., sterile injectable aqueous or oily suspensions) can be prepared using suitable dispersants or wetting agents and suspending agents according to known techniques. The sterile injectable preparations can also be sterile injectable solutions, suspensions or emulsions in nontoxic parenteral acceptable diluents or solvents, such as solutions in 1,3-butanediol. Acceptable vehicles and solvents that can be used are water, Ringer's solution (USP) and isotonic sodium chloride solution. In addition, sterile, fixed oils are conventionally used as solvents or suspension media. For this reason, any gentle fixed oil can be used, including synthetic monoglycerides or diglycerides. In addition, fatty acids such as oleic acid are also used to prepare injectables.

[0557] The injectable formulations can be sterilized, for example, by filtration through a bacteria-retaining filter or by incorporating sterilizing agents in the form of sterile solid compositions that can be dissolved or dispersed in sterile water or other sterile injectable medium prior to use.

[0558] In order to prolong the effect of the compounds of the present invention, it is generally necessary to slow the absorption of the compound injected subcutaneously or intramuscularly. This can be achieved by using a liquid suspension of crystalline or amorphous materials with poor water solubility. The absorption rate of the compound depends on its dissolution rate, which in turn may depend on the crystal size and crystalline form. Alternatively, delayed absorption of the compound form administered parenterally can be achieved by dissolving or suspending the compound in an oil vehicle. Injectable reservoir forms are prepared by forming a microencapsulation matrix of the compound in a biodegradable polymer such as polylactide-polyglycolide. The compound release rate can be controlled based on the ratio of compound to polymer and the properties of the specific polymer used. Examples of other biodegradable polymers include poly(orthoesters) and poly(anhydrides). Depot injectable formulations are also prepared by encapsulating the compound in liposomes or microemulsions that are compatible with body tissues.

[0559] Compositions for rectal or vaginal administration are preferably suppositories, which can be prepared by mixing the disclosed compounds with suitable non-irritating excipients or carriers such as cocoa butter, polyethylene glycol or a suppository wax, which are solid at ambient temperature but liquid at body temperature and therefore melt in the rectum or vaginal cavity and release the active compound.

[0560] Solid dosage forms for oral administration include capsules, tablets, pills, powders, and granules. In such solid dosage forms, the active compound is mixed with at least one inert, pharmaceutically acceptable excipient or carrier, such as sodium citrate or dicalcium phosphate and / or a) fillers or extenders, such as starches, lactose, sucrose, glucose, mannitol, and silicic acid, b) binders, such as carboxymethylcellulose, alginates, gelatin, polyvinylpyrrolidone, sucrose, and acacia, c) humectants, such as glycerol, d) disintegrants, such as agar, calcium carbonate, potato starch or tapioca starch, alginic acid, certain silicates, and sodium carbonate, e) solution retarder, such as paraffin, f) absorption accelerators, such as quaternary ammonium compounds, g) wetting agents, such as cetyl alcohol and glyceryl monostearate, h) absorbents, such as kaolin and bentonite, and i) lubricants, such as talc, calcium stearate, magnesium stearate, solid polyethylene glycols, sodium lauryl sulfate, and mixtures thereof. In the case of capsules, tablets and pills, the dosage form may also comprise buffering agents.

[0561] In the soft-filled and hard-filled gelatin capsules using excipients such as lactose (lactose / milk sugar) and high molecular weight polyethylene glycol, similar solid compositions can also be used as fillers. Solid dosage forms such as tablets, dragees, capsules, pills and granules with coatings and shells such as well-known other coatings in the field of enteric coating and pharmaceutical formulation can be prepared. They can optionally contain an emulsifier and can also have a composition that allows them to optionally only or preferentially release the active ingredient in a certain part of the intestinal tract in a delayed manner. The example of operable embedded composition includes polymeric substances and waxes. In the soft-filled and hard-filled gelatin capsules using excipients such as lactose and high molecular weight polyethylene glycol, similar solid compositions can also be used as fillers.

[0562] Active compound can also be in the form of microencapsulation with one or more excipients as described above. The solid dosage forms of tablets, dragees, capsules, pills and granules can be prepared to have coatings and shells, such as enteric coatings, release-controlled coatings and other coatings well-known in the field of pharmaceutical formulations. In such solid dosage forms, the active compound can be mixed with at least one inert diluent (such as sucrose, lactose or starch). As a rule, such dosage forms can also include other substances other than inert diluents, such as tableting lubricants and other tableting aids, such as magnesium stearate and microcrystalline cellulose. In the case of capsules, tablets and pills, the dosage form can also include a buffer. They can optionally contain an emulsifier and can also have a composition that allows it to optionally only or preferentially release the active ingredient in a delayed manner in a certain part of the intestinal tract. The example of an embedding composition that can be used includes polymeric substances and waxes.

[0563] The dosage form for the surface or transdermal application of the compound of the present disclosure includes ointment, paste, cream, lotion, gel, powder, solution, spray, inhalant or patch. The active ingredient is mixed with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and any required preservative or buffer that may be needed under aseptic conditions. Ophthalmic preparations, ear drops and eye drops are also considered to be within the scope of the present disclosure. In addition, the present disclosure encompasses the use of transdermal patches, which have additional advantages, i.e., control delivery of the compound to the body. Such dosage forms can be prepared by dissolving or distributing the compound in a suitable medium. Absorption enhancers can also be used to increase the flux of the compound through the skin.

[0662] Compounds containing one or more stereo centers are mixtures of stereoisomers, unless otherwise indicated or described (e.g., using dotted lines or wedge-shaped bonds to represent stereochemistry). In general, enhanced stereochemistry represents the introduction of three types of identifiers that can be attached to stereogenic centers. Stereochemical group labels are made up of identifiers and group numbers. Each stereogenic center labeled with a wedge-shaped bond belongs to one (and only one) stereochemical group. Grouping allows the specification of the relative relationship between the stereogenic centers.

[0663] ABS represents a stereogenic center with known absolute configuration. As used herein, "or" represents a stereogenic center with known relative configuration but unknown absolute configuration. The structure represents a stereoisomer, which is the drawn structure (R, S), or a diastereomer in which the stereogenic center has the opposite configuration (S, R). It will be understood by those skilled in the art that if a single stereogenic center is present, the designation "or" represents a single isomer with unknown absolute configuration. In some such cases, two compounds may be depicted in the same manner with "or" at a single stereogenic center, one of which has a single stereogenic center in R configuration and the other in S configuration. The designations "and" and "&" are used interchangeably and represent a mixture of stereoisomers. It can be a pair of enantiomers or all diastereomers.
