Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001] This application claims priority to the applicant's prior application, bearing application number 202210162007.8 and entitled "Cariprazine medicinal salts and crystalline forms thereof, pharmaceutical compositions, preparation methods and uses," filed with the State Intellectual Property Office of the People's Republic of China on February 22, 2022. The above-mentioned prior application is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.

[0002] [Technical field] The present invention belongs to the field of chemical medicine, specifically to cariprazine medicinal salts and their crystalline forms, pharmaceutical compositions, preparation methods and uses.

[0003] [Background technology] Cariprazine, whose chemical structure is shown below, is a novel atypical antipsychotic drug that has antagonistic effects on dopamine D3, dopamine D2 and 5-serotonin 2B receptors and can be used to treat schizophrenia and bipolar I disorder. Currently available cariprazine hydrochloride capsules are oral preparations that need to be administered daily to maintain the drug concentration in the blood, but the frequent administration poses a problem of poor patient compliance.

[0004] [ka]

[0005] Patent document CN101679315A discloses various salts of cariprazine, including the monohydrochloride, dihydrochloride, monohydrobromide, maleate and mesylate salts.

[0006] Patent document CN105218484A discloses cariprazine tartrate and provides the solubilities of cariprazine tartrate, cariprazine hydrochloride, cariprazine maleate, cariprazine besylate and cariprazine phosphate, all of which are greater than 3 mg / mL.

[0007] Patent document WO2020056929A discloses a new crystalline form of cariprazine hydrochloride, in which it is described that cariprazine hydrochloride is rapidly dissociated into a free base in a buffer solution of pH 6.5.

[0008] Patent document CN108261394A discloses cariprazine hydrochloride injection formulations, including aqueous suspension and lyophilized formulations, which can obtain sustained release for at least one week. However, the inventors found in the course of research that the stability of the aqueous solution of cariprazine hydrochloride is not ideal, and dissociation occurs under weakly acidic to alkaline conditions, so there is a risk of dissociation in the aqueous suspension, which results in the property and quality of the product being easily changed, the solubility and absorbability of the drug being changed, affecting the efficacy of the drug and the safety of drug use in patients, and making it unsuitable for use in long-acting sustained-release formulations. In addition, the cariprazine concentration, administration concentration, and blood drug concentration in animal pK experiments of the cariprazine hydrochloride injection formulation disclosed in patent document CN108261394A are too high, and previous research data shows that the elimination of cariprazine varies greatly between species (about 2 to 4 hours in rats and 3 to 9 days in humans), so if the blood drug concentration is too high, the toxicity and side effects will be relatively large, and the drug may accumulate excessively in the human body.

[0009] There have been no reports to date of an injectable cariprazine poorly soluble salt formulation with improved performance.

[0010] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, finding cariprazine pharmaceutical salts and crystalline forms thereof that have low solubility, are suitable for long-acting administration, are highly stable, have good clinical efficacy, and / or are suitable for commercialization is a technical problem that is currently urgently needed to be solved in the field.

The cariprazine mono-1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate dihydrate crystal form A of the present invention is relatively stable and does not change in crystal form under high humidity, light exposure and accelerated conditions, but is converted to cariprazine mono-1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate crystal form C under high temperature conditions.

[0182] Example 10: Comparison of solubility at different pH levels Crystal form A of cariprazine mono-1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate dihydrate prepared in Example 1A, crystal form C of cariprazine semi-mono-1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate prepared in Example 4, crystal form A of cariprazine bis-1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate hydrate prepared in Example 5, amorphous cariprazine pamoate prepared in Example 7, crystal form I of cariprazine hydrochloride prepared in Example 8, and cariprazine free base (commercially available) were taken and added to the following media having different pH values, shaken at 37°C for 24 hours, filtered through a 0.45 μm aqueous phase filter membrane, and the filtrates were collected and their solubilities were measured by high performance liquid chromatography. Among them, pH3, pH4, pH5, and pH6 were acetate buffer solutions, and pH7, pH7.4, pH8, and pH9 were phosphate buffer solutions.

[0183] The results of the solubility test are shown in Table 3, which shows that the solubility of cariprazine mono 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate and its crystalline form and cariprazine bis 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate prepared in the present invention is relatively low in the range of pH 3-9, and the solubility in the range of pH 3-6 is significantly lower than that of hydrochloride, and the solubility in the range of pH 7-9 is significantly lower than that of pamoate. The relatively low solubility allows the release rate of the salt form and crystalline form to be minimally dependent on pH, thereby avoiding the influence of the pH environment of different regions in the body on the drug release rate, avoiding the occurrence of abrupt release phenomenon or excessive increase in blood drug concentration in local regions in the body, and reducing the difference in drug release between individuals. In addition, the stability of the crystalline form of cariprazine 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate is relatively good, which is suitable for long-acting preparations, can reduce the number of administrations, and can improve patient compliance, and has a good market prospect.

[0217] [Table 12]

[0218] From the results in the table above, it can be seen that even with the same formulation, suspensions with particles of different particle sizes (Dv90) can be produced by controlling the grinding parameters.

[0219] Examples 38-40: Aqueous suspensions of cariprazine mono 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate in different crystalline forms

[0220] [Table 13]

[0221] Manufacturing process: (1) The formulation amounts of Tween 20, disodium hydrogen phosphate, sodium dihydrogen phosphate, mannitol, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, and approximately 60% of the total amount of water for injection were weighed out, and the mixture was stirred to dissolve and disperse.

[0222] (2) The above-mentioned crystalline form of cariprazine mono 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate in the formulation amount was added, and the pH was adjusted to 4.0 to 9.0 with sodium hydroxide or hydrochloric acid, optionally, followed by volume adjustment and stirring until completely dispersed to obtain the suspensions of Examples 38 to 40.

[0223] The blended samples prepared in Examples 38 to 40 were taken, and the needle passability, suspendability, sedimentation ratio and redispersibility were examined. It was found that all of the above suspension samples could pass through a 0.45×15 mm injection needle, showing good suspendability, and that the sedimentation ratios of the samples in Examples 38 to 40 for at least 10 minutes were greater than 0.9, showing good redispersibility (they could be dispersed quickly when shaken after settling). From the results shown in the above table, it was found that the same formulation of aqueous suspension was applicable to all of the different crystalline forms of cariprazine mono-1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate, taking into consideration the needle passability, suspension property, sedimentation ratio and wetting property.

[0224] Example 41: Consideration of the stability of cariprazine 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate aqueous suspension at 60°C The aqueous suspension of cariprazine mono-1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate dihydrate crystalline form A prepared in Example 21 and the aqueous suspension of cariprazine bis-1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate hydrate crystalline form A prepared in Example 24 were subjected to detection of related substances at 60°C on days 0, 5 and 10, and the results are shown in the table below.

[0225] [Table 14]

[0226] The results in the above table show that, in the same formulation, the aqueous suspension of cariprazine mono-1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate dihydrate crystalline form A is more stable than the aqueous suspension of cariprazine bis-1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate hydrate crystalline form A.

[0227] Examples 42-43: Amplification and stability of aqueous suspensions of cariprazine mono 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate in different formulations

[0228] [Table 15]

[0229] Manufacturing process: (1) The compounded amounts of Tween 20, disodium hydrogen phosphate, sodium dihydrogen phosphate, mannitol, sodium carboxymethylcellulose / PVPK30, and approximately 60% of the total amount of water for injection were weighed out, stirred to dissolve and disperse, and the volume was adjusted to 200 mL.

[0232] (4) An OMEC LS-909 particle size analyzer was used to measure the particle size distribution of the samples of Examples 42 and 43, and the results are shown in the table below.

[0233] [Table 16]

[0234] The results in the above table show that by controlling the milling parameters it is possible to produce aqueous suspensions of particles with smaller particle size (Dv90).

[0235] The suspensions prepared in the above examples were subjected to high temperature (60°C), light irradiation, accelerated (40°C / 75% RH), long-term (25°C / 60% RH), and low temperature (2-8°C) conditions to obtain stability samples. Data on content, particle size, etc. are shown in the table below.

[0236] [Table 17]

[0237] From the above data, it can be seen that the abrasive samples with different formulations all have good stability in terms of related substances, content, particle size, etc. under different conditions, and at the same time, the needle passability and redispersibility of the above stability samples are all good, with no abnormalities observed.

[0238] Example 44: Hydrochloride Salt Dissociation Studies The cariprazine hydrochloride crystalline form I prepared in Example 8 was added to corresponding aqueous media such as pH 6, pH 7, pH 7.4, pH 8 and pH 9, respectively, and shaken at 37°C for 4 hours, centrifuged, and the residue was subjected to XRPD detection. The result showed that cariprazine hydrochloride crystalline form I was dissociated into cariprazine free base, and the comparative result of pH 7.4 is shown in FIG. 16 (the rest are not shown), which shows that cariprazine hydrochloride crystalline form I is unstable in solution, and the change of the crystalline form after administration changes the efficacy and reduces the safety of administration.

[0239] Examples 45-47: Pharmacokinetic study of cariprazine 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate suspension formulation in rats

[0240] [Table 18]

[0241] The manufacturing process of the suspension injection of Example 42 was as described in Example 42 above.

[0242] 1. Preparation process of the suspension injection of Examples 45-46: (1) The formulation amounts of poloxamer 188, disodium hydrogen phosphate, sodium dihydrogen phosphate, mannitol, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, and approximately 60% of the total amount of water for injection were weighed out, and the mixture was stirred to dissolve and disperse.

[0243] (2) The corresponding sample of crystalline form A of cariprazine mono-1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate dihydrate or crystalline form A of cariprazine bis-1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate hydrate was added in the prescribed amount, stirred until completely dispersed, and then adjusted to the specified volume to obtain the suspension injections of Examples 45 to 46 having a pH of 7.4±0.2.

[0244] 2. Preparation process of the suspension injection of Example 47: (1) The formulation amounts of Tween 20, disodium hydrogen phosphate, sodium dihydrogen phosphate, mannitol, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, and approximately 60% of the total amount of water for injection were weighed out, and the mixture was stirred to dissolve and disperse.

[0245] (2) The formulated amount of amorphous cariprazine pamoate was added to each solution, stirred until completely dispersed, and then adjusted to the specified volume to obtain a suspension injection solution of Example 47 having a pH of 7.4±0.2.

[0246] 3. An OMEC LS-909 particle size analyzer was used to measure the particle size distribution of the samples in Examples 45 to 46, and the results are shown in the table below.

[0247] [Table 19]

[0248] Example 48: Preparation of hydrochloride crystalline form I oral liquid (1) An appropriate amount of the sample of cariprazine hydrochloride crystalline form I obtained in Example 8 was taken and added to about 60% of the total amount of water for injection, optionally adding 0.1% Tween 20 and 0.35% sodium carboxymethylcellulose, and dispersed by stirring.

[0249] (2) The pH was adjusted to 5.0 to 5.5 with hydrochloric acid, and the volume was adjusted to constant, thereby obtaining the final clear oral liquid of Example 48.

[0250] Example 49: Pharmacokinetics Experiments Examples 45-48: 12 male SD rats were divided into 4 groups, and 3 of the groups were administered a single dose of 9 mg / kg of cariprazine mono 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate (Example 45), cariprazine bis 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate (Example 46) and cariprazine pamoate (Example 47) by intramuscular injection, respectively, and plasma was collected 0 h, 1 h, 3 h, 7 h, 24 h, 4 d, 7 d, 15 d, 20 d, 25 d and 30 d after administration. The 4th group was administered a single dose of 0.3 mg / kg of cariprazine hydrochloride crystalline form I (Example 48) by forced oral administration, and plasma was collected 5 min, 15 min, 30 min, 1 h, 2 h, 3 h, 4 h, 6 h, 8 h, 12 h and 24 h after administration. During the study, animals in the intramuscular injection group had free access to food and water, whereas animals in the gavage group were fasted overnight before dosing and resumed eating and drinking 4 hours after dosing.

[0251] Collection of plasma samples: Approximately 150 μL of blood was collected from the jugular vein (whole blood was centrifuged within 30 minutes to separate plasma) and placed in a test tube containing anticoagulant EDTA-K2, and the treated plasma was stored in a refrigerator at -70°C until use. After pretreatment of the plasma samples, 1 μL of the solution was taken for LC-MS / MS analysis.

[0252] The pharmacokinetic parameters in the animals are shown in Tables 4 to 7, and the drug time course curves are shown in Figures 17 to 19.

[0253] The results showed that in the cariprazine hydrochloride oral combination group, the peak blood drug concentration Cmax absorbed within 1 hour after administration reached 20 ng / mL, which decreased to 1 ng / mL at 12 hours, and the mean residence time (MRTlast) was only 2.75 hours, while the three injection groups of Examples 45, 46, and 47 had significantly longer peak arrival times Tmax and mean residence times (MRTlast) compared with the oral group, with Tmax extended from several hours to several days, and MRTlast being 4.5 days, 6.5 days, and 5.4 days, respectively, which were 39, 57, and 47 times that of the oral experimental group, indicating a significant sustained release effect.

[0254] Example 42: Three male SD rats and three female SD rats were divided into two groups, one for each group, and each group was intramuscularly administered with a single dose of 9 mg / kg of cariprazine mono 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate formulation (Example 42), and plasma samples were collected 1 h, 3 h, 7 h, 24 h, 4 d, 7 d, 10 d, 13 d, 16 d, 19 d, 22 d, 25 d, and 28 d after administration. During the study, the animals were allowed to freely access food and water.

[0255] Collection of plasma samples: After blood samples were collected, they were placed on ice and centrifuged within 1 hour (centrifugation conditions: 6800 g, 6 min, 2-8°C) to separate the plasma, which was placed in a test tube containing the anticoagulant EDTA-K2, and the plasma samples were stored in a refrigerator at -80°C before analysis. After pretreatment of the plasma samples, the solution was taken and subjected to LC-MS / MS analysis.

[0256] The pharmacokinetic parameters in the animals are shown in Tables 8 and 9, and the drug time course curves are shown in Figures 20 and 21.

[0257] The results showed that the two groups of rats of different sexes in Example 42 showed significantly longer peak time Tmax and mean residence time (MRTlast) than the oral group (Example 48, the peak blood drug concentration Cmax absorbed within 1 hour reached 20 ng / ml, decreased to 1 ng / ml at 12 hours, and the mean residence time (MRTlast) was only 2.75 hours), Tmax was extended from several hours to several days, and MRTlast was 5.9 days and 6.5 days, respectively, which was 51 and 57 times that of the oral experimental group, showing a significant sustained release effect.

[0258] The Cmax values ​​of the injection groups of Examples 42, 45 and 46 (26 (male), 29 (female), 13 and 24 ng / mL) were not significantly different from those of the oral group, indicating that the formulations produced in this patent application do not pose safety concerns such as adverse drug reactions due to excessive increases in blood drug concentrations after administration, while the Cmax value of the injection group of Example 47 was relatively high at 50.5 ng / mL, which may raise safety concerns regarding certain adverse reaction events.

[0259] In addition, from the viewpoint of maintaining the blood drug concentration, Examples 42, 45 and 46 were maintained at approximately 1 ng / mL within 15 to 20 days after administration to the injection group, while Example 47 was maintained for only 11 days, indicating that Examples 42, 45 and 46 have a longer period during which they exert their pharmacological effects in the body and have a superior sustained release effect to Example 47.

[0260] Furthermore, the AUClast values ​​of the injected male rats in Examples 42, 45 and 46 were 138, 68 and 168 day×ng / mL, respectively, indicating that Examples 42 and 46 were more advantageous in terms of bioavailability than Example 45.
