AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The compound 2-(isoindolin-2-ylmethyl)-5-((l-(methylsulfonyl)piperidin-4-yl)methoxy)-4H-pyran-4-one (I) and its salts are prone to stability issues when formulated with carriers and excipients for solid oral compositions, such as tablets and capsules.

Method used

Incorporating a stability-enhancing amount of a pharmaceutically acceptable organic acid, such as citric acid or maleic acid, into the pharmaceutical composition to improve the chemical stability of the active ingredient.

Benefits of technology

The addition of a pharmaceutically acceptable organic acid significantly enhances the chemical stability of the pharmaceutical compositions, making them more suitable for oral administration in treating hormonally regulated diseases like prostate cancer and breast cancer.
