Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of Chinese Patent Application No. 202180062748.2 (PCT application number PCT / JP2021 / 033901), filed on September 15, 2021, entitled “Salts of Triazine Compounds, Crystal Forms Thereof and Methods of Manufacturing”. Technical Field

[0002] This invention relates to salts of triazine compounds having inhibitory effects on aldosterone synthase and useful as medicines, especially for the prevention or treatment of primary aldosteronism, as well as their crystal forms and methods of manufacture. More specifically, it relates to 3-[4-[[trans-4-(acetamido)cyclohexyl]carbamoylmethyl]piperazin-1-yl]-5-(p-tolyl)-1,2,4-triazine (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as "triazine compound A") or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, their crystal forms, methods of manufacture, and pharmaceutical compositions containing them as active ingredients. Background Technology

[0003] Patent Document 1 discloses various triazine compounds or their pharmacologically acceptable salts that have aldosterone synthase inhibitory activity, and Triazine Compound A is described in Example 48. However, Patent Document 1 does not describe or suggest a specific salt or crystal form of Triazine Compound A.

[0004] In addition, Patent Document 1 discloses the following method for manufacturing triazine compound A.

[0005] [Chemical Formula 1] Existing technical documents Patent documents Patent Document 1: International Publication No. 2015 / 163427 Summary of the Invention

[0006] The problem that the invention aims to solve The present invention provides a novel salt of triazine compound A for the prevention or treatment of primary aldosteronism, its crystal form, and an industrially advantageous method for manufacturing the compound.

[0007] Methods for solving problems To address the aforementioned issues, the inventors of this application conducted in-depth research to obtain a raw material with suitable qualities for use as a drug, and attempted to obtain a salt. As a result, hydrobromide, sulfate, succinate, or p-toluenesulfonate of triazine compound A were discovered as salts that are excellent in terms of purity, thermal stability, hygroscopicity, deliquescence, chemical stability, and safety, and are also excellent in terms of handling.

[0008] Next, the inventors of this application conducted in-depth research on the salt of the above-mentioned triazine compound A, and found that the hydrobromide of triazine compound A exhibits stable pharmacokinetics under both gastric acid secretion promotion and gastric acid secretion inhibition conditions.

[0009] Thus, the hydrobromide of triazine compound A, as a pharmaceutical technical material, possesses unexpectedly excellent properties, but multiple crystal forms have been identified. The inventors of this application discovered that, in particular, the A-type crystal of the hydrobromide of triazine compound A is the most preferred crystal form from a stability perspective. However, depending on the amount of hydrogen bromide added during the crystallization step, the crystallization temperature, and the composition of the crystallization solvent, issues such as the introduction of polymorphs, the increase of impurities, and the increase of residual solvent were observed, making it impossible to obtain the target crystal with good reproducibility and stability. Therefore, in addition to in-depth research on the types, amounts, and ratios of reagents and solvents used in crystallization, the inventors of this application also conducted in-depth research on the crystallization steps. As a result, a method for efficiently obtaining the A-type crystal of the hydrobromide of triazine compound A, suitable for pharmaceutical technical materials, was discovered, thus completing this invention. Furthermore, similarly to the A-type crystal of the hydrobromide of triazine compound A, methods for obtaining stable crystal forms of good quality for the sulfate, succinate, and p-toluenesulfonate of triazine compound A were also discovered.

[0010] Furthermore, based on the results of differential scanning calorimetry, compounds (B), (C), and (E) described in Patent Document 1 were confirmed to be compounds with explosive risks. Furthermore, based on the results of the DEREK; MultiCASE genotoxicity risk assessment, compounds (B), (C), and (D) were confirmed to be compounds with potential genotoxic risks. As stated above, the manufacturing method described in Patent Document 1 uses compounds with explosive and genotoxic risks as manufacturing intermediates, and is therefore unfavorable for industrial-scale implementation.

[0011] Furthermore, triazine compound A is a poorly soluble compound, similar in properties to insoluble impurities produced in intermediate steps. Therefore, it is known that it is not easy to separate or purify it in the final step, making it difficult to supply triazine compound A of suitable quality as a pharmaceutical raw material.

[0012] Therefore, the inventors of this application conducted various studies and discovered an industrially advantageous method for manufacturing triazine compound A with qualities suitable for use as a pharmaceutical ingredient, which allows for the easy removal of insoluble impurities by using compounds with low explosive and genotoxic risks as manufacturing intermediates and by using compounds with high solubility as manufacturing intermediates.

The term "patient" in this invention refers to an individual who is the object of prevention or treatment by the crystals of the present invention, preferably a mammal, and more preferably a human.

[0130] Regarding the dosage, it can be determined by considering factors such as the patient's age, weight, general health condition, sex, diet, administration time, administration method, excretion rate, combination of drugs, and the severity of symptoms of the patient being treated at the time of administration, taking into account these or other factors. The salt of the present invention, the crystal of the present invention, and the pharmaceutical composition containing them as active ingredients have low toxicity and can be used safely. The daily dosage (i.e., the effective dose) varies depending on the patient's condition, weight, and route of administration. For example, in the case of non-oral administration, it is desirable to administer about 0.0001 to 1000 mg / person / day, preferably about 0.01 to 1000 mg / person / day, and particularly preferably about 0.01 to 500 mg / person / day. In the case of oral administration, it is desirable to administer about 0.01 to 1000 mg / person / day, preferably about 0.01 to 500 mg / person / day.

[0131] In this invention, "prevention" refers to the act of administering the salt, crystal, or pharmaceutical composition containing the present invention to an individual who has not yet developed a disease or symptoms. Conversely, "treatment" refers to the act of administering the salt, crystal, or pharmaceutical composition containing the present invention to an individual who has already developed a disease or symptoms. Therefore, administering such treatment to an individual who has already developed a disease or symptoms in order to prevent the worsening of symptoms, the onset of disease, or the recurrence of disease is a form of "treatment."

For wells with precipitates, filter out the precipitates and perform XRPD analysis. For wells without precipitates, open the cap, store at room temperature overnight, and if a solid is observed, filter out the solid and perform XRPD analysis.

[0150] For a portion of each of the aforementioned crystals, evaluate their thermal stability, hygroscopicity, deliquescence, and chemical stability.

[0151] <Evaluation of Thermal Stability> The following measurements and evaluations were performed using a simultaneous thermogravimetric / differential calorimetry (TGC / DTA7200) device (SII NanoTechnology Co., Ltd.).

[0152] Heating rate: 10℃ / minute Temperature range: 25~300℃ Atmosphere: Nitrogen 200 mL / min <Evaluation of hygroscopicity and deliquescence> The evaluation was performed using a moisture adsorption assay apparatus, either the DVS-1 or DVS-intrinsic (Surface Measurement Systems Limited). Approximately 5 mg of sample was placed in a pre-calibrated aluminum dish. The apparatus was then attached to a precision balance, and the initial weight was precisely measured. The weight change was recorded over time as humidity was varied in stages within a chamber at 25°C, and the equilibrium weight at each humidity level was determined. Using the weight at dryness (0% RH) as a baseline, the rate of weight change and hydration number at each humidity level were calculated.

[0153] <Chemical Stability Evaluation> For samples stored at 60℃ (sealed) and 60℃ / 75%RH (open) for one week, as well as unstored samples (at the start of the test), approximately 1 mg was measured and dissolved in 5 mL of acetonitrile / water (1:1) mixture to prepare a sample solution. The test was performed using liquid chromatography under the following conditions, and the peak areas were determined.

Furthermore, succinate type A crystals showed no significant weight changes between 25 and 148 °C (melting point), thus confirming them as a crystal form with good thermal stability.

[0157] Furthermore, as shown in Table 5 regarding the evaluation results of hygroscopicity and deliquescence, no significant increase in similar substances was observed in hydrobromide type A crystals, sulfate type B crystals, p-toluenesulfonate type B crystals, p-toluenesulfonate type C crystals, succinate type A crystals, and glycolate type A crystals, confirming them as good crystal forms with low hygroscopicity and deliquescence. Additionally, it was confirmed that sulfate type B crystals have a hydration stage and are hydrated under conditions of room temperature and relative humidity of 10–95%.

[0158] Furthermore, as shown in the chemical stability test results in Table 5, no significant increase of similar substances was observed in hydrobromide type A crystals, hydrochloride type A crystals, sulfate type B crystals, p-toluenesulfonate type B crystals, p-toluenesulfonate type C crystals, maleate type A crystals, citrate type A crystals, succinate type A crystals, and glycolate type A crystals, confirming that they are crystal forms with good chemical stability.

[0159] Hydrobromide type A crystals, sulfate type B crystals, p-toluenesulfonate type C crystals, and succinate type A crystals possess good thermal stability, hygroscopicity, deliquescence, and chemical stability.

[0160] Experimental Example 1: Synthesis of Sulfate Type B Crystals 50 mg of triazine compound A was dissolved in 2 mL of chloroform at room temperature. 30 mg (2.7 equivalents) of sulfuric acid was diluted with 2 mL of methanol and added at room temperature. After stirring at room temperature for 0.5 hours, the solvent was evaporated under nitrogen. 3 mL of acetonitrile and 100 μL of water were added to the dried solid to obtain a sugar-like substance. Seed crystals were added to the sugar-like substance to form a suspension, which was then stirred overnight at room temperature. The precipitate was filtered, washed twice with 0.5 mL of acetonitrile, and dried under reduced pressure at 40 °C for 2.5 hours to obtain 75 mg of sulfate type B crystals (yield 92%, calculated as 2,5-sulfate dihydrate).

[0161] Experimental Example 2: Synthesis of p-Toluenesulfonate C-type Crystals Dissolve 50 mg of triazine compound A in 2 mL of chloroform at room temperature. Dissolve 45 mg (2 equivalents) of p-toluenesulfonic acid in 2 mL of chloroform and 0.5 mL of methanol, and add the solution at room temperature. Evaporate the solvent with nitrogen, add 2.5 mL of 1,2-dimethoxyethane, and stir overnight at room temperature. Filter the precipitate and dry under reduced pressure at 40 °C for 3 hours to give 70 mg of p-toluenesulfonate C-type crystals (yield 79%, calculated as 2 p-toluenesulfonate).

[0162] Experimental Example 3: Synthesis of Succinate Type A Crystals 40 mg of triazine compound A was dissolved in 2 mL of chloroform at room temperature. 12 mg (1 equivalent) of succinic acid was dissolved in 1 mL of tetrahydrofuran and added at room temperature. After stirring for 0.5 hours, 1 mL of methanol was added to the reaction mixture to prepare a solution. The solvent was then evaporated by nitrogen blowing, and 2.5 mL of toluene was added. The mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature. The precipitate was filtered, washed with toluene, and dried under reduced pressure at 40 °C for 2 hours to give 43 mg of succinate type A crystals (yield 85%, calculated as 1 succinate).

[0163] Experimental Example 4: Synthesis of Hydrobromide Type A Crystals (Another Method) Dissolve 50 mg of triazine compound A in 2 mL of chloroform at room temperature. Dilute 39 mg of 25% hydrobromic acid / acetic acid with 1 mL of methanol and add the solution at room temperature. Stir at room temperature for 1 hour, then evaporate the solvent with nitrogen. Add 2.5 mL of acetonitrile to the dried solid and stir overnight at room temperature. Filter the precipitate, wash the filter twice with 0.5 mL of acetonitrile, and dry under reduced pressure at 40 °C for 3 hours to obtain 50 mg of hydrobromide type A crystals (yield 85%).

[0164] Example 3: Polymorphism Search of Hydrobromate of Triazine Compound A <Experimental Methods> Approximately 500 mg of triazine compound A hydrobromide type A crystals were dissolved in 5.0 mL of chloroform to obtain a suspension. 50 μL of this suspension was dispensed into each well of a 96-well plate. After the solvent dried under a nitrogen stream, the solvents listed in Table 6 were added in the order of unsuitable solvents (6 types) and good solvents (4 types), bringing the total volume to 200 μL. Acetone, tetrahydrofuran, ethyl acetate, diisopropyl ether, acetonitrile, and toluene were selected as unsuitable solvents. Methanol, benzyl alcohol, N-methylpyrrolidone, and dimethyl sulfoxide were selected as good solvents. The plate was sealed and stirred at room temperature for 5 days. The presence of suspension was visually confirmed. For wells showing suspension, the plate was filtered through a 96-well filter plate (MultiScreen (registered trademark) HTS+Hi-Flow, FC, Merck Millipore), and the XRPD of the residue on the filter was determined.

[0165] <Results> Using the hydrobromide A-type crystals of triazine compound A, polymorphism searching was performed using a mixed solvent prepared with six unsuitable solvents (acetone, tetrahydrofuran, ethyl acetate, diisopropyl ether, acetonitrile, and toluene) and four good solvents (methanol, benzyl alcohol, N-methylpyrrolidone, and dimethyl sulfoxide). X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) was performed on the obtained crystals, and the results are shown in Table 6. Crystal types were distinguished by XRPD patterns, and for each salt, letters were labeled in the order in which the novel XRPD pattern was confirmed. The XRPD results show that the hydrobromide A-type crystals of triazine compound A are the same as those obtained in Example 1.

[0166] [Table 6] Of the 96 conditions shown in Table 6, the A-type hydrobromide crystals did not undergo a change in crystal form under 55 conditions, changed to the C-type (dimethyl sulfoxide) crystals of triazine compound A under 11 conditions, and changed to the D-type (N-methylpyrrolidone) crystals of triazine compound A under 1 condition. Here, "not conforming" indicates a change to a form such as a solution that cannot be measured by X-ray powder diffraction, and "amorphous" indicates a change from the A-type hydrobromide crystals to an amorphous substance. Therefore, it can be concluded that the A-type hydrobromide crystals of triazine compound A are the most stable.

[0167] Example 4: Polymorphism Search of Hydrobromide Crystals of Triazine Compound A - 2 Using triazine compound A, polymorphisms of the hydrobromide crystals of triazine compound A were searched in acetone, water, or a mixture of acetone and water by means of hydrogen bromide equivalent or crystallization temperature. As a result, 11 polymorphs were obtained.

[0168] Among the many crystal forms obtained, the A-type crystal of triazine compound A, the F-type crystal of triazine compound A, and the N-type crystal of triazine compound A exhibit good thermal stability, hygroscopicity, deliquescence, and chemical stability.

[0169] The crystallization conditions for triazine compound A hydrobromide type A crystals, triazine compound A hydrobromide type F crystals, and triazine compound A hydrobromide type N crystals, which have suitable physical properties for pharmaceutical manufacturing, are shown in Table 7. The XRPD apparatus and measurement conditions were the same as in Example 1. The XRPD results show that the triazine compound A hydrobromide type A crystals are the same as those obtained in Example 1.

[0170] [Table 7] In method (a), type A crystals of hydrobromide of triazine compound A were obtained. It was determined that the crystals contained 1.0 equivalent of hydrobromic acid.

[0171] In method (b), F-type crystals of the hydrobromide of triazine compound A were obtained. It was determined that the crystal contained 2.0 equivalents of hydrobromic acid.

The mixture was cooled to 10 °C and filtered. The wet mixture was washed with acetone (50 mL) and dried under reduced pressure at 40 °C for 24 hours to obtain hydrobromide F-type crystals (13.45 g).

[0175] Experimental Example 7 (c) Experimental example of the method Triazine compound A (50.0 g) was suspended in water (450 mL) at 50 °C, and then 26.19 g (1.4 equivalents) of 48% hydrobromic acid aqueous solution was added, and the mixture was stirred for about 5 hours. The mixture was cooled to 14 °C and filtered. The wet mixture was washed with acetone (200 mL) and dried under air for 21 hours to obtain N-type hydrobromide crystals (57.43 g).

[0185] For each of the above crystals, evaluate their thermal stability, hygroscopicity, deliquescence, and chemical stability.

[0186] <Evaluation of Thermal Stability> The following measurements and evaluations were performed using a simultaneous thermogravimetric / differential calorimetry (TGC / DTA7200) device (SII NanoTechnology Co., Ltd.).

[0187] Heating rate: 10℃ / minute Heating range: 30~300℃ Atmosphere: Nitrogen 200 mL / min or, The following measurements and evaluations were performed using a TGA / DSC1 thermogravimetric analyzer (Mettler-Toledo, STARe system) under the following conditions.

[0188] Heating rate: 10℃ / minute Temperature range: 25~300℃ Atmosphere: Nitrogen 50 mL / min <Evaluation of hygroscopicity and deliquescence> The evaluation was performed using a moisture adsorption measuring device, either the DVS-1 or DVS-intrinsic (Surface Measurement Systems Limited). The sample was placed in a pre-calibrated tare dish, and the device was attached to a precision balance. The initial weight was precisely measured. The weight change was recorded over time as humidity levels changed, and the equilibrium weight at each humidity level was determined. The rate of change of weight at each humidity level was calculated using the dry state (0% RH) or an anhydrous sample converted from the initial moisture content confirmed by other methods as a baseline.

[0189] <Chemical Stability Evaluation> The sample was stored at 60℃ in a sealed state and at 60℃ and 75%RH for one week. The increase or decrease of similar substances before and after storage was calculated by high performance liquid chromatography based on the area percentage of each peak, and then the state after storage was observed.

[0190] The results are shown in Table 10.

[0191] [Table 10] Among the many crystal forms obtained, hydrobromide type A, hydrobromide type F, and hydrobromide type N crystals exhibit good thermal stability, hygroscopicity, deliquescence, and chemical stability. However, hydrobromide type F and hydrobromide type N crystals have a hydration stage, confirming that they are hydrates under conditions of room temperature and relative humidity of 10–95%.

[0192] Example 6: The effect of water during the crystallization of hydrobromide type A crystals [Table 11] <Experimental Methods> Triazine compound A was added to acetone and water mixtures with varying water contents, along with one equivalent of aqueous hydrobromic acid. The mixture was stirred at 50°C. After 1 hour, 19 hours, and 45 hours of stirring, portions of the reaction solution were filtered off, and the filtrates were subjected to X-ray powder diffraction analysis. The transition rate to type A crystals in acetone and water mixtures with varying water contents was confirmed.

[0193] <Results> The results are shown in Table 11.

[0194] In a mixed solvent with a water content of 0.64% (entry 1), after 19 hours of stirring, it is a mixture of hydrobromide type A crystals, hydrobromide type F crystals and triazine compound A, but after 45 hours of stirring, it converges into hydrobromide type A crystals.

[0195] In a mixed solvent with a water content of 2–5% (items 2–5), after stirring for 1 hour, it converged into hydrobromide type A crystals. Furthermore, it was confirmed that when the water content was 2–3%, the inclusion rate of triazine compound A in the mother liquor was good, ranging from 0.6% to 1.1%, but when the water content was 5%, the inclusion rate of triazine compound A in the mother liquor increased to 5.5%.

[0196] It has been confirmed that by adding triazine compound A to a mixed solvent of acetone and water with a water content of 2.0–3.0%, followed by the addition of 1 equivalent of aqueous hydrobromic acid, and stirring at 50°C, the stirring time can be shortened, and hydrobromide type A crystals can be obtained with high recovery. This method is an industrially advantageous crystallization method for pharmaceuticals.

[0197] Example 7: Comparison of the pharmacokinetics of triazine compound A and its hydrobromide when used in combination with a gastric acid secretion promoter or a gastric acid secretion inhibitor. <Experimental Methods> In dogs treated with gastric acid secretion promoters or gastric acid secretion inhibitors, a two-group, four-phase crossover method was used to evaluate the hydrobromide content of triazine compound A under gastric acid secretion and gastric pH regulation, as well as the pharmacokinetics of triazine compound A.

[0198] In the treatment of gastric acid secretion stimulants, pentagastrin was used. The administration solution was prepared by dissolving 2.8 mg of pentagastrin in dimethyl sulfoxide (7.0 mL) and water for injection (7.0 mL), and administered intramuscularly to the thigh muscle at a dose of 10 μg / 0.05 mL / kg. Pentagastrin was administered 0.5 hours before and 0.5 hours after administration of the test substance (hydrobromide of triazine compound A (compound 1 prepared in Example 1), or triazine compound A (compound 10 prepared in Example 1)). In the treatment of gastric acid secretion inhibitors, omeprazole was used. The administration solution was prepared by dissolving 90 mg of omeprazole in 22.5 mL of a 1:1 mixture of 0.1% sodium bicarbonate aqueous solution (w / v) and polyethylene glycol 400, and administered intravenously to the saphenous vein of the hind limb at a dose of 1 mg / 0.25 mL / kg. Omeprazole should be administered 1 hour before the test substance.

[0199] After the dog drinks 25 mL of water for injection using a syringe with an oral cannula, it is forcibly administered orally at a dose of 10 mg / capsule (the equivalent amount of the free salt of triazine compound A is 10 mg based on triazine compound A) and triazine compound A. The dog is then given another 25 mL of water for injection to drink from the syringe with the oral cannula. The test substance is administered while the dog is fasting, and feeding resumes 6 hours after administration. Water is withheld from 1 hour before to 2 hours after administration of the test substance.

[0200] Six 4-year-old male beagle dogs were divided into two groups of three. For the dogs in group 1, the administration sequence was: (Phase 1) omeprazole followed by triazine compound A, (Phase 2) omeprazole followed by triazine compound A hydrobromide, (Phase 3) pentagastrin followed by triazine compound A, and (Phase 4) pentagastrin followed by triazine compound A hydrobromide. For the dogs in group 2, the administration sequence was: (Phase 1) omeprazole followed by triazine compound A hydrobromide, (Phase 2) omeprazole followed by triazine compound A, (Phase 3) pentagastrin followed by triazine compound A hydrobromide, and (Phase 4) pentagastrin followed by triazine compound A. The withdrawal period for each phase was 6 or 7 days. At 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 24 hours after administration of triazine compound A hydrobromide or triazine compound A, 0.6 mL whole blood samples were collected from the cephalic vein using a heparin sodium syringe while the patient was awake. The whole blood samples were processed into plasma, and the concentration of triazine compound A was analyzed using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS / MS). The area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC; the area from time 0 to the time at which the final concentration can be measured) based on plasma-time data was calculated using Phoenix WinNonlin Software Ver. 6.3 (Certara LP). 0-t And the area AUC from time 0 to infinity calculated by extrapolation through the final elimination of the phase. 0-∞ ), maximum blood concentration (C max Time to peak plasma concentration (T) max ), and the elimination half-life (T) in plasma. 1 / 2 ).

[0201] <Results> The results are shown in Table 12 and Figure 14 .

[0202] [Table 12] The absorption of triazine compound A was inhibited under conditions of gastric acid inhibition, and compared with conditions of gastric acid secretion promotion, the absorption of C was confirmed. max Both the concentrations of triazine compound A hydrobromide and its AUC decreased by approximately 50%. Furthermore, this suggests that under conditions of gastric acid suppression, the CV% is high, making individual variability more likely. The blood concentration of hydrobromide in triazine compound A remained unchanged under gastric acid conditions, confirming that it is not affected by gastric pH.

[0203] It should be noted that the hydrobromide of triazine compound A used in Example 7 is in the form of hydrobromide type A crystal.

[0204] Experimental Example 8: Measurement of Aldosterone Synthase (hereinafter CYP11B2) Inhibitory Activity <Experimental Method> The pcDNA3.1-human CYP11B2 plasmid was transfected into the Chinese hamster lung fibroblast V79 cell line to produce a stable expression strain of the human CYP11B2 gene.

[0205] The cells were cultured and proliferated in Dulbecco's modified Eagle ham medium (Japanese: Dulbecco-modified Eagle ham medium) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and 1% G418 disulfate solution at 37 °C in an environment of 95% air and 5% CO2, and the cells were recovered.

[0206] Next, referring to the method of Chabre et al., JCE&M 85 (11) 4060-68, 2000, a mitochondrial fraction was obtained. Specifically, the cells suspended in 5 mmol / L Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.4) containing 250 mmol / L sucrose were homogenized using a Teflon (registered trademark) Potter-Elvehjem homogenizer, and then the suspension was centrifuged (at 800 × g for 15 minutes). After collecting the supernatant, it was centrifuged again (at 10,000 × g for 15 minutes) to obtain pellets (mitochondrial fraction).

[0207] The mitochondrial fraction diluted with a buffer containing 10 mmol / L KH2PO4, 10 mmol / L Tris, 20 mmol / L KCl, 25 mmol / L sucrose, 5 mmol / L MgCl2, and 0.05% bovine serum albumin was dispensed into a 96-well plate. 0.5 μmol / L deoxycorticosterone and 150 μmol / L NADPH were added, and incubated at room temperature for 1.5 to 2 hours to produce aldosterone. The amount of aldosterone produced in the solution was measured by the HTRF (Homogeneous Time Resolved Fluorescence) method.

[0208] Based on the aldosterone production inhibition rate (%) of the triazine compound A of the present invention at each concentration, a non-linear regression based on a logistic curve was performed to calculate the IC 50 (nmol / L).

[0209] As a result, the IC 50 of the triazine compound A of the present invention was 9.0 nmol / L, and the triazine compound A of the present invention has strong aldosterone synthase inhibitory activity.

[0210] Furthermore, experiments were conducted using the salt of the triazine compound A of the present invention and its crystals, in the same manner as in this experimental example. Thus, it was also confirmed that the salt of the triazine compound A of the present invention and its crystals have strong aldosterone synthase inhibitory activity.

[0211] Industrial availability The novel salts of 3-[4-[[trans-4-(acetamido)cyclohexyl]carbamoylmethyl]piperazin-1-yl]-5-(p-tolyl)-1,2,4-triazine are salts that yield excellent crystals. In particular, the hydrobromide salt exhibits stable pharmacokinetics under both gastric acid secretion-promoting and gastric acid secretion-inhibiting conditions, and is free of compounds that could potentially have adverse effects on organisms from a safety perspective. Furthermore, the crystals of the novel salts of 3-[4-[[trans-4-(acetamido)cyclohexyl]carbamoylmethyl]piperazin-1-yl]-5-(p-tolyl)-1,2,4-triazine are characterized by: no solvent residue, excellent thermal stability, minimal and stable weight change relative to humidity, non-hygroscopicity, excellent chemical stability, and excellent safety profile. They are free of compounds that could potentially have adverse effects on organisms from a safety perspective. Moreover, since the crystals can be readily and reproducibly obtained using industrially suitable methods, they are excellent crystals for use as pharmaceutical technical materials.

[0212] Furthermore, the method for manufacturing crystals of 3-[4-[[trans-4-(acetamido)cyclohexyl]carbamoylmethyl]piperazin-1-yl]-5-(p-tolyl)-1,2,4-triazine is an industrially advantageous method that does not use manufacturing intermediates with explosive or genotoxic risks, can produce the active ingredient in good yield, and can reproducibly obtain the most stable crystals in high yield.
