Description

[Technical field]

[0001] Claiming priority This application claims priority from U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 269,945, filed March 25, 2022, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.

[0002] Technical Field The present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions of tyrosine protein kinase 2 (TYK2) inhibitors and methods of making said compositions. The present invention also provides methods of treating disorders using said pharmaceutical compositions. [Background technology]

[0003] Protein kinases constitute a large family of structurally related enzymes responsible for the control of various signaling processes within cells. Protein kinases are thought to have evolved from a common ancestral gene because their structure and catalytic function are conserved. Almost all kinases contain a similar 250-300 amino acid catalytic domain. Kinases can be classified into families according to the substrates they phosphorylate (e.g., protein-tyrosine, protein-serine / threonine, lipids, etc.).

[0004] In general, protein kinases mediate intracellular signaling by effecting phosphoryl transfer from a nucleoside triphosphate to a protein acceptor involved in a signaling pathway. These phosphorylation events act as molecular on / off switches that can modulate or regulate the biological function of the target protein. These phosphorylation events are ultimately triggered in response to a variety of extracellular and other stimuli. Examples of such stimuli include environmental and chemical stress signals (e.g., osmotic shock, heat shock, ultraviolet radiation, bacterial endotoxin, and H2O2), cytokines (e.g., interleukin-1 (IL-1), interleukin-8 (IL-8), and tumor necrosis factor a (TNF-a)), and growth factors (e.g., granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF), and fibroblast growth factor (FGF)). Extracellular stimuli can affect one or more cellular responses related to cell growth, migration, differentiation, secretion of hormones, activation of transcription factors, muscle contraction, glucose metabolism, control of protein synthesis, and regulation of the cell cycle.

[0005] Many diseases are associated with abnormal cellular responses triggered by kinase-mediated events, including, but not limited to, autoimmune diseases, inflammatory diseases, bone diseases, metabolic diseases, neurological and neurodegenerative diseases, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, allergies and asthma, Alzheimer's disease, and hormone-related diseases.

[0006] TYK2 catalyzes the phosphorylation of STAT proteins downstream of several cytokine receptors, including type I interferon receptors and IL-12 and IL-23 receptors. Activation of TYK2-dependent receptors by their cytokine ligands activates STAT-dependent transcriptional and cellular functional responses specific to the receptor and the cell type in which they are expressed. Cytokine signaling pathways regulated by TYK2 play important roles in several immune-mediated disorders. The cytokine IL-12 is essential for the development of type 1 T helper cells (Th1), which produce interferon-gamma, the main effector molecule of systemic autoimmune disorders such as systemic lupus erythematosus. The cytokine IL-23 is essential for the expansion and survival of Th17 cells and innate lymphoid cells, both of which have been shown to play important pathogenic roles in autoimmunity. IL-23 stimulation drives the production of important proinflammatory cytokines by Th17 cells, including IL-17A, IL-17F, and IL-22, all of which are important effector molecules in the pathogenesis of conditions such as psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, and spondyloarthritis. Inhibition of TYK2 is predicted to impact multiple immune-mediated disorders through its effects on the IL-23 / Th17 / Th22 axis, IL-12-mediated Th1 function, and modulation of diverse immune pathways and cell types by type I interferons.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0019] Detailed Description Compound 1: [ka] is a TYK2 inhibitor previously disclosed by the applicant. See U.S. Patent No. 11,046,698. Solubilization of this compound is difficult and can be an obstacle when formulating the compound for administration to or treatment of a patient, for example, because solubility can affect bioavailability and therapeutic outcome. The present disclosure meets the need for solubilizing formulations of Compound 1 and provides other related advantages.

[0020] Compound 1 is an oral, allosteric, and selective TYK2 inhibitor being investigated for the treatment of psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, and other inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Currently, there are no approved TYK2 inhibitors, and this compound is the most selective of the TYK2 inhibitors currently in clinical development. Furthermore, the selectivity of Compound 1, plus the possibility of higher levels of TYK2 inhibition over longer periods with once-daily (QD) dosing, may provide clinical and eventual commercial advantages over other TYK2 inhibitors in development. TYK2 is a member of the Janus kinase (JAK) family of kinases, a class of intracellular signaling proteins that regulate chronic inflammation in inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. JAK inhibition can be effective in the treatment of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, but it may also raise on-target safety issues by modulating a variety of cytokine pathways. As a result, JAK inhibitors have become an established oral treatment for a number of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, but their clinical utility is limited by the high risk of infection and other side effects, which has led to warning panels and dose limits being mandated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as part of their labeling. Due to the structural similarity between the catalytic (orthosteric or JH1) site for drug targeting on the JAK catalytic domain, and due to the specific physical properties (e.g., solubility) of JAK inhibitors such as compound 1, it is difficult to design selective JAK inhibitors in an optimized formulation for effective dissolution in vivo that directly and specifically inhibit the intended kinase function. Based on human genetic data and growing clinical evidence of the selectivity of allosteric TYK2 inhibitors, this approach to selective allosteric inhibition of TYK2 offers an optimal balance of achieving potent efficacy with the potential to avoid safety concerns associated with broader JAK inhibition for the treatment of multiple inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Additionally, this approach to inhibitor formulation facilitates dissolution of the compounds used in treatments requiring the aforementioned drug therapy.

[0045] As used herein, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" refers to a salt that is suitable for use in contact with the tissues of humans and lower animals without undue toxicity, irritation, allergic response, etc., within the scope of sound medical judgment, and commensurate with a reasonable benefit / risk ratio. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts are well known in the art. For example, S. M. Berge et al. describe pharmaceutically acceptable salts in detail in J. Pharmaceutical Sciences, 1977, 66, 1-19, which is incorporated herein by reference. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds described herein include those derived from suitable inorganic and organic acids and bases. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic acid addition salts are salts of amino groups formed with inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, phosphoric acid, sulfuric acid, and perchloric acid, or organic acids such as acetic acid, oxalic acid, maleic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, succinic acid, or malonic acid, or by using other methods used in the art, such as ion exchange. Other pharma- ceutically acceptable salts include adipate, alginate, ascorbate, aspartate, benzenesulfonate, besylate, benzoate, bisulfate, borate, butyrate, camphorate, camphorsulfonate, citrate, cyclopentanepropionate, digluconate, dodecyl sulfate, ethanesulfonate, formate, fumarate, glucoheptonate, glycerophosphate, gluconate, hemisulfate, heptanoate, hexanoate, hydroiodide, 2-hydroxybenzoate, and the like. -ethanesulfonate, lactobionate, lactate, laurate, lauryl sulfate, malate, maleate, malonate, mesylate, 2-naphthalenesulfonate, nicotinate, nitrate, oleate, oxalate, palmitate, pamoate, pectinate, persulfate, 3-phenylpropionate, phosphate, pivalate, propionate, stearate, succinate, sulfate, tartrate, thiocyanate, p-toluenesulfonate, undecanoate, and valerate salts.

[0046] Salts derived from appropriate bases include alkali metal, alkaline earth metal, ammonium and N+ (C 1-4 Representative alkali metal or alkaline earth metal salts include sodium, lithium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and the like. Further pharma- ceutically acceptable salts include non-toxic ammonium, quaternary ammonium, and amine cations formed using counterions such as halides, hydroxides, carboxylates, sulfates, phosphates, nitrates, lower alkyl sulfonates, and aryl sulfonates, where appropriate.

[0047] Unless otherwise stated, structures depicted herein are also intended to include all isomeric (e.g., enantiomeric, diastereomeric, and geometric (or conformational)) forms of the structure; for example, the R and S configurations for each asymmetric center, Z and E double bond isomers, and Z and E conformational isomers. Therefore, single stereochemical isomers as well as enantiomeric, diastereomeric, and geometric (or conformational) mixtures of the present compounds are within the scope of the invention. Unless otherwise stated, all tautomeric forms of the compounds of the invention are within the scope of the invention.

[0048] As used herein, "about" or "approximately" in reference to a numerical value means that the stated numerical value may vary by up to 10% of the stated value. For example, "about 10" refers to a value between 9.9 and 10.1 (10±0.1).

[0049] The present disclosure includes embodiments that are defined as "comprising" an item. The present disclosure also contemplates similar embodiments that "consist essentially of" or "consist of" the item.

[0050] As used herein, "nominal particle size" refers to the particle size that represents the mass average of the particles.

[0051] As used herein, "loose bulk density" refers to the mass per unit volume of loose powder.

[0052] As used herein, "solubilizer" may refer to one or more compounds added to a formulation to increase its solubility in a given solvent system (e.g., water, organic solvents, biological fluids, simulated biological fluids, and mixtures thereof).

[0053] As used herein, "binder" may refer to one or more compounds that promote cohesion between other ingredients in a formulation; binders are also called adhesives and help mix other ingredients in a formulation together. Tablet binders may help turn powders into granules. This may be accomplished during the process of granulation.

[0054] As used herein, "surfactant" may refer to one or more compounds that reduce the surface tension between two liquids, between a gas and a liquid, or between a liquid and a solid. Surfactants may function as detergents, wetting agents, emulsifiers, foaming agents, or dispersing agents.

[0055] As used herein, a "glidant" is an additive substance used to improve the flow of a powder by reducing interparticle friction, surface charge, and cohesion, thereby decreasing the angle of repose. They are often incorporated as a dry powder just prior to direct compression.

[0056] As used herein, "granulation" refers to the process of producing larger or smaller granules or particles of a substance or mixture of substances. This process may also remove fine granules and improve flowability within the formulation. Both wet granulation and / or dry granulation may be used. Dry granulation is accomplished using only a combination of granules without the need for liquid thereon. Slugging uses a tablet press to form large tablets of variable weight due to the poor flowability of the formulation. The resulting slugs are then passed through a granulator to break them into granules, which are then compressed again to obtain the final granular product.

[0057] This process may include roller compaction, where the formulation is fed through a roller compactor, the mixture is fed through a top hopper, and two rollers compress the powder to form a ribbon, which then passes through a granulator, where the powder is pressed through a mesh to create granules of the desired size. In some embodiments, the granules have an average particle size of about 0.01 mm to about 10 mm. In some embodiments, the granules have an average particle size of about 0.2 mm to about 0.4 mm.

[0058] Wet granulation can be used to facilitate particle aggregation. Adhesives, usually called binders, can be incorporated in the form of a solution or suspension in a suitable liquid.

[0059] Wet granulation may use a fluidized bed granulator, where hot air is fed into the bed to spray and levitate the granules, binding them together and forming bridges between the granules. The initial stage of wet granulation may involve spraying the granules, and the spraying rate may vary. The wetting of the powder may then begin to form liquid bridges between the granules. This process continues until granules of the required size are formed with solid bridges between the granules. Once the complete granules are ready to proceed to the drying process, the spraying process may be stopped and hot air continues to flow through the bed to dry the granules. Wet granulation may be carried out in a high shear wet granulator that is commercially available or known to those skilled in the art, for example, a wet granulator described in Liu et al., “A review of high shear wet granulation for better process understanding, control and product development,” Powder Technology, 381, March 2021, Pages 204-223, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. With regard to the drying process, such methods and equipment for carrying it out will be known to those skilled in the art. Drying can be carried out, for example, in a fluid bed dryer as described in Srivastava et al., "Fluid Bed Technology: Overview and Parameters for Process Selection," International Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences and Drug Research 2010;2(4):236-246, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.

[0060] Screen milling of the process materials may be used, for example after drying. Screen milling procedures and equipment are well known to those skilled in the art, as described, for example, in Kotamarthy, LVG, (2018). “Understanding the effect of granulation and mill process parameters on granule critical quality attributes,” [Master's dissertation, Rutgers University]. Rutger's Library, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

[0061] "Blending" as used herein refers to techniques for blending solid materials that are well known to those skilled in the art.

[0159] In some embodiments, Compound 1 is a racemate: [ka] or a mixture of stereoisomers, or in the form of a solvate or pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof.

[0160] Use of the pharmaceutical composition Compound 1 and compositions described herein are generally useful for inhibiting the kinase activity of one or more enzymes. In some embodiments, the kinase inhibited by compound 1 and methods described herein is TYK2.

[0161] TYK2 is a non-receptor tyrosine kinase member of the Janus kinase (JAK) family of protein kinases. The mammalian JAK family consists of four members: TYK2, JAK1, JAK2, and JAK3. JAK proteins, including TYK2, are essential for cytokine signaling. TYK2 associates with the cytoplasmic domains of type I and type II cytokine receptors, as well as interferon type I and type III receptors, and is activated by these receptors upon cytokine binding. Cytokines involved in TYK2 activation include interferons (e.g., IFN-α, IFN-β, IFN-κ, IFN-δ, IFN-ε, IFN-τ, IFN-ω, and IFN-ζ (also known as limitin) and interleukins (e.g., IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IL-11, IL-12, IL-13, IL-22, IL-23, IL-27, IL-31, oncostatin M, ciliary neurotrophic factor, cardiotrophin-1, cardiotrophin-like cytokine, and LIF).Velasquez et al.,“A protein kinase in the interferon α / β signalling pathway,”Cell(1992)70:313、Stahl et al.,“Association and activation of Jak-Tyk kinases by CNTF-LIF-OSM-IL-6β receptor components,”Science(1994)263:92、Finbloom et al.,“IL-10 induces the tyrosine phosphorylation of Tyk2 and Jak1 and the differential assembly of Stat1 and Stat3 complexes in human T cells and monocytes,”J.Immunol.(1995)155:1079、Bacon et al.,“Interleukin 12(IL-12)induces tyrosine phosphorylation of Jak2 and Tyk2:differential use of Janus family kinases by IL-2 and IL-12,”J.Exp.Med.(1995)181:399、Welham et al.,“Interleukin-13 signal transduction in lymphohemopoietic cells:similarities and differences in signal transduction with interleukin-4 and insulin,”J.Biol.Chem.(1995)270:12286、Parham et al.,“A receptor for the heterodimeric cytokine IL-23 is composed of IL-12Rβ1 and a novel cytokine receptor subunit,IL-23R,”J.Immunol.(2002)168:5699。Activated TYK2 then begins to phosphorylate additional signaling proteins, such as members of the STAT family, including STAT1, STAT2, STAT4, and STAT6.

[0162] Activation of TYK2 by IL-23 has been linked to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), Crohn's disease, and ulcerative colitis. Duerr et al., "A Genome-Wide Association Study Identifies IL23R as an Inflammatory Bowel Disease Gene," Science (2006) 314:1461-1463. TYK2, as a downstream effector of IL-23, has also been implicated in psoriasis, ankylosing spondylitis, and Behcet's disease. Cho et al., “Genomics and the multifactorial nature of human auto-immune disease,” N. Engl. J. Med (2011) 365: 1612-1623; Cortes et al., “Identification of multiple risk variants for ankylosing spondylitis through high-density genotyping of immune-related loci,” Nat. Genet. (2013) 45(7): 730-738; Remmers et al., “Genome-wide association study identifies variants in the MHC class I, IL10, and IL23R-IL12RB2 regions associated with Behcet's disease,” Nat. Genet. (2010) 42: 698-702. A genome-wide association study of 2,622 individuals with psoriasis identified an association between disease susceptibility and TYK2. Strange et al., “A genome-wide association study identifies a new psoriasis susceptibility loci and an interaction between HLA-C and ERAP1,” Nat. Genet. (2010) 42:985-992. Knockout of TYK2 or inhibition of tyrphostin significantly reduces both IL-23-induced and IL-22-induced dermatitis.Ishizaki et al., “Tyk2 is a therapeutic target for psoriasis-like skin inflammation,” Intl. Immunol. (2013), doi:10.1093 / intimm / dxt062.

[0163] TYK2 is also involved in respiratory diseases such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), lung cancer, and cystic fibrosis. Goblet cell hyperplasia (GCH) and mucus hypersecretion are mediated by IL-13-induced TYK2 activation, which in turn activates STAT6. Zhang et al., “Docking protein Gab2 regulates mucin expression and goblet cell hyperplasia through TYK2 / STAT6 pathway,” FASEB J. (2012) 26:1-11.

[0164] Reduction of TYK2 activity leads to protection of joints from collagen antibody-induced arthritis, a model of human rheumatoid arthritis. Mechanistically, reduction of Tyk2 activity reduces T h 1 / T h 17-related cytokines and matrix metalloproteinases, as well as other important inflammatory markers. Ishizaki et al., “Tyk2 deficiency protects joints against destruction in anti-type II collagen antibody-induced arthritis in mice,” Intl. Immunol. (2011) 23(9):575-582.

[0165] TYK2 knockout mice showed complete resistance to experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE, an animal model of multiple sclerosis (MS)) with no infiltration of CD4 T cells in the spinal cord compared to controls, suggesting that TYK2 is essential for the development of pathogenic CD4-mediated disease in MS. Oyamada et al., “Tyrosine Kinase 2 Plays Critical Roles in the Pathogenic CD4 T Cell Responses for the Development of Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis,” J. Immunol. (2009) 183: 7539-7546. This supports previous studies that linked increased TYK2 expression to MS susceptibility. Ban et al., “Replication analysis identifies TYK2 as a multiple sclerosis susceptibility factor,” Eur J. Hum. Genet. (2009) 17: 1309-1313. Loss-of-function mutations in TYK2 lead to decreased demyelination and increased remyelination of neurons, further suggesting a role for TYK2 inhibitors in the treatment of MS and other CNS demyelinating disorders.

[0166] TYK2 is the only signaling messenger common to both IL-12 and IL-23. In mice, TYK2 knockout reduced footpad thickness induced by methylated BSA injection, imiquimod-induced psoriasis-like skin inflammation, and dextran sulfate sodium or 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid-induced colitis.

[0167] Co-linkage and association studies of various type I IFN signaling genes and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE, an autoimmune disorder) have shown a strong and significant correlation between loss-of-function mutations in TYK2 and reduced prevalence of SLE in affected families. Sigurdsson et al., “Polymorphisms in the Tyrosine Kinase 2 and Interferon Regulatory Factor 5 Genes Are Associated with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus,” Am. J. Hum. Genet. (2005) 76:528-537. Genome-wide association studies of SLE affected and unaffected cohorts have shown a highly significant correlation between the TYK2 locus and SLE. Graham et al., “Association of NCF2,IKZF1,IRF8,IFIH1,and TYK2 with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus,” PLoS Genetics(2011)7(10):e1002341.

[0168] TYK2 has been shown to play a key role in maintaining tumor surveillance, and TYK2 knockout mice showed impaired cytotoxic T cell responses and accelerated tumor development. However, these effects were associated with efficient suppression of natural killer (NK) and cytotoxic T lymphocytes, suggesting that TYK2 inhibitors would be highly suitable for the treatment of autoimmune disorders or transplant rejection. Although other JAK family members such as JAK3 have similar roles in the immune system, TYK2 has been suggested as a superior target because it is involved in fewer and more closely related signaling pathways, thus reducing off-target effects. Simma et al. “Identification of an Indispensable Role for Tyrosine Kinase 2 in CTL-Mediated Tumour Surveillance,” Cancer Res. (2009) 69: 203-211.

[0169] However, contrary to the reduced tumor surveillance observed by Simma et al., studies in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) have shown that T-ALL is highly dependent on IL-10 via TYK2 through STAT1-mediated signaling to maintain cancer cell survival by upregulation of the anti-apoptotic protein BCL2. Knockdown of TYK2 reduced cell growth, but this was not the case for other JAK family members. Specific activating mutations in TYK2 that promote cancer cell survival include mutations to the FERM domain (G36D, S47N, and R425H), JH2 domain (V731I), and kinase domain (E957D and R1027H). However, it was also identified that the kinase function of TYK2 is required to increase cancer cell survival, since TYK2 enzymes characterized by kinase-dead mutations (M978Y or M978F) in addition to activating mutations (E957D) failed to transform. Sanda et al. “TYK2-STAT1-BCL2 Pathway Dependence in T-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia,” Cancer Disc. (2013)3(5):564-577.

[0170] Therefore, selective inhibition of TYK2 has been suggested as a suitable target for patients with IL-10 and / or BCL2-dependent tumors, such as 70% of adult T-cell leukemia cases. Fontan et al. "Discovering What Makes STAT Signalling TYK in T-ALL," Cancer Disc. (2013) 3: 494-496.

[0171] TYK2-mediated STAT3 signaling has also been shown to mediate neuronal cell death caused by amyloid beta (Aβ) peptides. Decreased TYK2 phosphorylation of STAT3 after Aβ administration leads to reduced neuronal cell death, and increased phosphorylation of STAT3 has been observed in postmortem brains of Alzheimer's disease patients. Wan et al. “Tyk / STAT3 Signalling Mediates β-Amyloid-Induced Neuronal Cell Death: Implications in Alzheimer's Disease,” J.Neurosci.(2010)30(20):6873-6881.

[0172] Inhibition of the JAK-STAT signaling pathway has also been implicated in hair growth and reversal of hair loss associated with alopecia areata. Xing et al., “Alopecia areata is driven by cytotoxic T lymphocytes and is reversed by JAK inhibition,” Nat. Med. (2014) 20:1043-1049; Harel et al., “Pharmacologic inhibition of JAK-STAT signalling promotes hair growth,” Sci. Adv. (2015) 1(9): e1500973.

[0173] Thus, compounds that inhibit the activity of TYK2, particularly those with selectivity over JAK2, would be beneficial. Such compounds should exert pharmacological responses that successfully treat one or more of the conditions described herein without the side effects associated with inhibition of JAK2.

[0174] Although TYK2 inhibitors are known in the art, there is a continuing need to provide new inhibitors with more effective or advantageous pharmacologic properties. For example, compounds with increased activity, selectivity over other JAK kinases (particularly JAK2), and ADMET (absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and / or toxicity) properties. Thus, in some embodiments, a pharmaceutical composition, formulation, or unit dosage form may include a TYK2 inhibitor compound 1 that exhibits selectivity over JAK2.

[0175] The activity of compound 1 utilized as an inhibitor of TYK2 or a mutant thereof as described herein can be assayed in vitro, in vivo, or in a cell line. In vitro assays include assays that determine the inhibition of either the phosphorylation activity and / or subsequent functional consequences, or the ATPase activity, of activated TYK2 or a mutant thereof. An alternative in vitro assay quantifies the ability of an inhibitor to bind to TYK2. Inhibitor binding can be measured by radiolabeling the inhibitor prior to binding, isolating the inhibitor / TYK2 complex, and determining the amount of radiolabel binding. Alternatively, inhibitor binding may be determined by performing a competition experiment in which a new inhibitor is incubated with TYK2 bound to a known radioligand. Representative in vitro and in vivo assays that are useful for assaying TYK2 inhibitors include, for example, those described and disclosed in the published literature, each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

[0176] As used herein, the terms "treatment," "treat," and "treating" refer to reversing, alleviating, delaying the onset, or inhibiting the progression of a disease or disorder, or one or more symptoms thereof, as described herein. In some embodiments, treatment may be administered after one or more symptoms have developed. In other embodiments, treatment may be administered in the absence of symptoms. For example, treatment may be administered to a susceptible individual prior to the onset of symptoms (e.g., taking into account symptom history and / or taking into account genetic or other susceptibility factors). Treatment may also be continued after symptoms have resolved, e.g., to prevent or delay the recurrence of symptoms.

[0177] Compound 1 is an inhibitor of TYK2 and is therefore useful for treating one or more disorders associated with the activity of TYK2 or its mutants.

[0234] The composition of Compound 1 may be administered using any amount and any route of administration effective for treating or reducing the severity of an autoimmune, inflammatory, proliferative, endocrine, neurological, or transplant-related disorder. 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 drug, its mode of administration, and the like. Compound 1 is preferably formulated in unit dosage form for ease of administration and uniformity of dosage. The expression "unit dosage form" as used herein refers to a physically discrete unit of drug appropriate for the patient being treated. However, it will be understood that the total daily usage of the compounds and compositions described herein will be determined by the attending physician within the scope of sound medical judgment. The specific effective dosage level for a particular patient or organism will depend on a variety of factors, including the disorder being treated and the severity of the disorder; the activity of the specific compound being used; the specific composition being used; the age, weight, general health, sex, and diet of the patient; the time of administration, route of administration, and excretion rate of the specific compound being used; the duration of treatment; drugs used in combination or simultaneously with the specific compound being used, and similar factors well known in the medical field. The term "patient", as used herein, means an animal, preferably a mammal, and most preferably a human.

[0235] The pharma- ceutically acceptable compositions described herein can be administered to humans and other animals orally, rectally, parenterally, intravesically, intravaginally, intraperitoneally, topically (as powders, ointments, or drops), bucally, as oral or nasal sprays, etc., depending on the severity of the infection being treated. In certain embodiments, the compounds described herein can be administered orally or parenterally, one or more times per day, at dosage levels of about 0.01 mg / kg to about 50 mg / kg, preferably about 0.01 mg / kg to about 5 mg / kg of subject body weight per day, to obtain the desired therapeutic effect.

[0236] Liquid dosage forms for oral administration include, but are not limited to, pharma- ceutically acceptable emulsions, microemulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups, and elixirs. Liquid dosage forms may contain, in addition to the active compound, inert diluents commonly used in the art, such as water or other solvents, solubilizing and emulsifying agents, such as ethyl alcohol, 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 sorbitan fatty acid esters, and mixtures thereof. In addition to inert diluents, oral compositions may also contain adjuvants, such as wetting agents, emulsifying and suspending agents, sweeteners, flavoring agents, and aromatic agents.

[0237] Injectable preparations, for example, sterile injectable aqueous or oleaginous suspensions, can be formulated according to known techniques using suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents. Sterile injectable preparations can also be sterile injectable solutions, suspensions, or emulsions in non-toxic parenterally acceptable diluents or solvents, for example, as a solution in 1,3-butanediol. Acceptable vehicles and solvents that can be used include water, Ringer's solution (USP), and isotonic sodium chloride solution. In addition, sterile fixed oils are conventionally used as solvents or suspending media. For this purpose, any non-irritating fixed oil can be used, including synthetic mono- or diglycerides. In addition, fatty acids such as oleic acid are used in the preparation of injectables.

[0238] The injectable preparations can be sterilized, for example, by filtration through a bacterial-retaining filter, or by incorporating sterilizing agents in the form of sterile solid compositions which can be dissolved or dispersed in sterile water or other sterile injectable medium prior to use.

[0239] To prolong the effect of Compound 1, it is often desirable to slow the absorption of the compound from subcutaneous or intramuscular injection. This can be accomplished by the use of a liquid suspension of crystalline or amorphous material with poor water solubility. The rate of absorption of the compound therefore depends on its rate of dissolution, which in turn may depend on crystal size and crystalline form. Alternatively, delayed absorption of a parenterally administered compound form is accomplished by dissolving or suspending the compound in an oil vehicle. Injectable depot forms are made by forming microencapsule matrices of the compound in biodegradable polymers such as polylactide-polyglycolide. Depending on the ratio of compound to polymer and the nature of the particular polymer employed, the release rate of Compound 1 can be controlled. Examples of other biodegradable polymers include poly(orthoesters) and poly(anhydrides). Injectable depot formulations are also prepared by entrapping the compound in liposomes or microemulsions that are compatible with body tissues.

[0240] Compositions for rectal or vaginal administration are preferably suppositories which may be prepared by mixing Compound 1 with a suitable non-irritating excipient or carrier (such as cocoa butter, polyethylene glycol, or a suppository wax) which is solid at ambient temperature but liquid at body temperature and therefore melts in the rectal or vaginal cavity to release the active compound.

[0241] 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 pharma- ceutically 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, for example, carboxymethylcellulose, alginates, gelatin, polyvinylpyrrolidone, sucrose, and acacia, c) humectants such as glycerol, d) disintegrating agents such as agar-agar, calcium carbonate, potato or tapioca starch, alginic acid, certain silicates, and sodium carbonate, e) solution retarding agents such as paraffin, f) absorption accelerators such as quaternary ammonium compounds, g) wetting agents such as, for example, cetyl alcohol and glycerol monostearate, h) absorbents such as kaolin and bentonite clay, 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 forms may also comprise buffering agents.

[0242] Solid compositions of a similar type may also be used as fillers in soft and hard filled gelatin capsules using excipients such as lactose or milk sugar and high molecular weight polyethylene glycols. The solid dosage forms of tablets, dragees, capsules, pills, and granules may be prepared with coatings and shells, such as enteric coatings and other coatings well known in the pharmaceutical formulation art. They may optionally contain opacifying agents and may be of a composition that releases the active ingredient(s) only, or preferentially, in a certain part of the intestinal tract, optionally in a delayed manner. Examples of embedding compositions that may be used include polymeric substances and waxes. Solid compositions of a similar type may also be used as fillers in soft and hard filled gelatin capsules using excipients such as lactose or milk sugar and high molecular weight polyethylene glycols.

[0243] The active compound may also be in microencapsulated form with one or more excipients as described above. In some embodiments, a hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HMPC) capsule encapsulates the composition or formulation described herein. In some embodiments, the capsule is a size 2 hard Swedish orange HPMC capsule. The solid dosage forms of tablets, dragees, capsules, pills, and granules may be prepared with coatings and shells, such as enteric coatings, release-controlling coatings, and other coatings well known in the pharmaceutical formulation art. In such solid dosage forms, the active compound may be mixed with at least one inert diluent, such as sucrose, lactose, or starch. According to normal practice, such dosage forms may also contain additional substances other than the inert diluent, for example, tableting lubricants and other tableting aids, such as magnesium stearate and microcrystalline cellulose. In the case of capsules, tablets, and pills, the dosage forms may also contain buffering agents. They may optionally contain opacifying agents and may be of a composition that they release the active ingredient(s) only, or preferentially, in a certain part of the intestinal tract, optionally, in a delayed manner. Examples of embedding compositions that can be used include polymeric substances and waxes.

[0244] Dosage forms for topical or transdermal administration of formulations containing Compound 1 described herein include ointments, pastes, creams, lotions, gels, powders, solutions, sprays, inhalants, or patches. The active ingredient is mixed under sterile conditions with a pharma- ceutically acceptable carrier and, if necessary, with any necessary preservatives or buffers. Ophthalmic formulations, ear drops, and eye drops are also contemplated to be within the scope of the compositions and formulations described herein. In addition, the formulations and compositions described herein can be used as transdermal patches, which have the added advantage of providing a controlled delivery of the compound to the body. Such dosage forms can be made by dissolving or dispensing the compound in a suitable medium. Absorption enhancers can also be used to increase the flux of the compound through the skin. The rate can be controlled by providing a rate-controlling membrane or by dispersing the compound in a polymer matrix or gel.

[0299] The structures of the active compounds, identified by code number, generic name or trade name, can be obtained from the current edition of the standard abstract "The Merck Index" or from databases such as Patents International (eg IMS World Publications).

[0300] Formulations containing compound 1 described herein may be used in combination with known therapeutic processes, such as administration of hormones or radiation. In certain embodiments, provided compounds are used as radiosensitizers, particularly for the treatment of tumors that exhibit insufficient sensitivity to radiation therapy.

[0301] The formulations comprising compound 1 as described herein can be administered alone or in combination with one or more other therapeutic compounds, and possible combination therapies are in the form of fixed combinations, or compound 1 as formulations as described herein is administered alternately or independently of one another, or a combination of a fixed combination with one or more other therapeutic compounds. Compound 1 can be administered in addition or in combination, particularly in tumor therapy, with chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy, phototherapy, surgical intervention, or a combination thereof. In the context of other treatment strategies as described above, long-term therapy is equally possible, as is adjuvant therapy. Other possible treatment methods are therapy to maintain the patient's condition after tumor regression, or even chemopreventive therapy, for example in patients at risk.

[0302] These additional agents may be administered separately from the composition containing the compound of the present invention as part of a multiple dose regimen. Alternatively, these agents may be part of a single dosage form, mixed together with Compound 1 as a single formulation or composition. When administered as part of a multiple dose regimen, the two active agents may be provided simultaneously, sequentially, or within a period of each other (usually within 5 hours of each other).

[0303] As used herein, the terms "combination," "combined," and related terms refer to simultaneous or sequential administration of therapeutic agents according to the methods described herein. For example, Compound 1 may be administered simultaneously or sequentially with another therapeutic agent in separate unit dosage forms, or together in a single unit dosage form. Thus, a single unit dosage form may include Compound 1, an additional therapeutic agent, and a pharma- ceutically acceptable carrier, adjuvant, or vehicle.

[0304] The amounts of both the compounds of the invention and additional therapeutic agents (in compositions containing additional therapeutic agents as described above) that may be combined with the carrier materials to produce a single dosage form will vary depending on the host treated and the particular mode of administration. Preferably, the compositions described herein should be formulated so that a dosage of 0.01 to 10 mg / kg body weight / day of Compound 1 or a solvate or pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof can be administered.

[0305] In compositions containing an additional therapeutic agent, the additional therapeutic agent and compound 1 may act synergistically. Thus, the amount of the additional therapeutic agent in such compositions will be less than that required in a monotherapy utilizing only that therapeutic agent. In such compositions, the additional therapeutic agent may be administered at a dosage of 0.01 to 1,000 μg / kg body weight / day.

[0306] The amount of additional therapeutic agent present in a composition comprising Compound 1 will not be greater than the amount that would normally be administered in a composition comprising that therapeutic agent as the only active agent. Preferably, the amount of additional therapeutic agent in a composition of the present disclosure will range from about 50% to 100% of the amount that would normally be present in a composition comprising that agent as the only therapeutically active agent.

[0307] Compound 1 and its pharmaceutical compositions may be incorporated into compositions for coating implantable medical devices, such as prostheses, artificial valves, vascular grafts, stents and catheters. Vascular stents, for example, have been used to overcome restenosis (re-narrowing of the vessel wall after injury). However, patients using stents or other implantable devices run the risk of clot formation or platelet activation. These undesirable effects can be prevented or mitigated by pre-coating the device with a pharma- ceutically acceptable composition comprising a kinase inhibitor. An implantable device coated with the compounds described herein is another embodiment of the compositions and formulations described herein.

[0308] In some embodiments, the medicament may include at least Compound 1 formulated as described herein.

[0309] Pharmaceutical ingredients The compositions described herein are administered using any amount and any route of administration effective for treating or reducing the severity of the above diseases. 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 drug, its mode of administration, and the like. Compound 1 is preferably formulated in unit dosage form for ease of administration and uniformity of dosage. The expression "unit dosage form" as used herein refers to a physically discrete unit of drug appropriate for the patient being treated. However, it will be understood that the total daily usage of the compounds and compositions described herein will be determined by the attending physician within the scope of sound medical judgment. The specific effective dosage level for a particular patient or organism (e.g., cat, dog, cow, horse, pig, or bird) will depend on a variety of factors, including the disorder being treated and the severity of the disorder; the activity of the specific compound used; the specific composition used; the age, weight, general health, sex, and diet of the patient; the time of administration, route of administration, and excretion rate of the specific compound used; the duration of treatment; drugs used in combination or simultaneously with the specific compound used, and similar factors well known in the medical field.

[0310] The pharma- ceutically acceptable compositions described herein can be administered to humans and other animals orally, rectally, parenterally, intravesically, intrathecally, transdermally, transmucosally, ophthalmically, by inhalation, intravaginally, intraperitoneally, topically (as powders, ointments, or drops), bucally, intranasally, as oral or nasal sprays, etc., depending on the severity of the disease being treated. In certain embodiments, the compounds described herein are administered orally or parenterally at dosage levels of about 0.01 mg / kg to about 50 mg / kg, e.g., about 1 mg / kg to about 25 mg / kg of subject body weight, one or more times per day to obtain the desired therapeutic effect.

[0311] The unit dosage forms described herein may be formulated for oral administration. Pharmaceutical compositions / formulations suitable for oral administration may be provided as individual dosage forms, such as, but not limited to, tablets, fastmelts, chewable tablets, capsules, pills, strips, troches, lozenges, pastilles, cachets, pellets, medicated chewing gum, bulk powders, effervescent or non-effervescent powders or granules, oral mists, solutions, emulsions, suspensions, wafers, sprinkles, elixirs, and syrups. In some embodiments, such dosage forms contain a predetermined amount of active ingredient and may be prepared by methods of pharmacy known to those skilled in the art. Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 18 th ed., Mack Publishing, Easton Pa. (1990). As used herein, oral administration also includes buccal, lingual, and sublingual administration.

[0312] In some embodiments, the formulation further comprises one or more pharma- ceutically acceptable excipients or carriers.

[0313] Those of skill in the art will recognize that a pharmaceutical formulation ingredient may serve multiple purposes within a formulation, and therefore, a particular formulation ingredient may be classified according to multiple functions (e.g., an ingredient may be both a filler and a binder).

[0314] In some embodiments, the unit dosage forms provided herein are prepared according to conventional pharmaceutical compounding techniques by combining the active ingredient in an intimate mixture with one or more pharma- ceutically acceptable excipients or carriers, including, but not limited to, binders, fillers, diluents, disintegrants, wetting agents, lubricants, glidants, colorants, dye transfer inhibitors, sweeteners, flavoring agents, emulsifiers, suspending and dispersing agents, preservatives, solvents, non-aqueous liquids, organic acids, and carbon dioxide sources. Excipients or carriers can take a wide variety of forms depending on the form of preparation desired for administration. For example, excipients or carriers suitable for use in oral liquid or aerosol dosage forms include, but are not limited to, water, glycols, oils, alcohols, flavoring agents, preservatives, and colorants. Examples of excipients or carriers suitable for use in solid oral dosage forms (e.g., powders, tablets, capsules, and caplets) include, but are not limited to, starches, sugars, microcrystalline cellulose, diluents, granulating agents, lubricants, binders, and disintegrants.

[0315] In some embodiments, the active ingredient, such as Compound 1 or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof, is incorporated into the pharmaceutical composition as a spray-dried powder or granules. The use of spray drying to produce powders from fluid feedstocks is well known, with applications ranging from milk powder to bulk chemicals and pharmaceuticals. See U.S. Pat. No. 4,187,617 and Mujumbar et al., 91 Drying, pages 56-73 (1991). The use of spray drying to form solid amorphous dispersions of drugs and concentration-enhancing polymers is also known. See commonly owned European Patent Applications Nos. 0901786, 1027886, 1027887, 1027888, and commonly owned PCT Applications Nos. WO00 / 168092 and WO00 / 168055, each of which is incorporated herein by reference. A typical spray drying apparatus comprises a drying chamber, an atomizing means for atomizing a solvent-containing liquid fed to the drying chamber, a source of heated drying gas directed into the drying chamber, and a dried product collection means for separating the dried product from the cooled drying gas and vaporized solvent stream after it exits the drying chamber. Examples of such apparatus include Niro models PSD-1, PSD-2, and PSD-4 (Niro A / S, Soeborg, Denmark).

[0316] Spray-dried powders or granules generally contain active compounds in combination with polymers, such as concentration-enhancing polymers.One class of polymers suitable for use in the compositions and formulations described herein includes non-ionizable (neutral) non-cellulosic polymers.Exemplary polymers include vinyl polymers and copolymers having at least one substituent selected from the group consisting of hydroxyl, alkylacyloxy, and cyclic amide; polyvinyl alcohol having at least a portion of the repeating units in non-hydrolyzed (vinyl acetate) form; polyvinyl alcohol polyvinyl acetate copolymers; polyvinylpyrrolidone; and polyethylene polyvinyl alcohol copolymers; and polyoxyethylene-polyoxypropylene copolymers.

[0317] An exemplary neutral non-cellulosic polymer is composed of a vinyl copolymer of at least one hydrophilic, hydroxyl-containing repeat unit and at least one hydrophobic, alkyl- or aryl-containing repeat unit. Such neutral vinyl copolymers are referred to as "amphiphilic hydroxyl-functional vinyl copolymers". It is believed that amphiphilic hydroxyl-functional vinyl copolymers provide high concentration enhancement because their amphiphilicity provides both sufficient hydrophobic groups to interact with hydrophobic low-solubility drugs and sufficient hydrophilic groups to have sufficient water solubility for good dissolution. The copolymer structure of amphiphilic hydroxyl-functional vinyl copolymers also allows them to adjust their hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity to maximize the performance of certain low-solubility drugs.

[0318] Another class of polymers suitable for use in the compositions and formulations described herein includes ionizable non-cellulosic polymers.Exemplary polymers include carboxylic acid functionalized vinyl polymers, such as carboxylic acid functionalized polymethacrylates and polyacrylates, such as the EUDRAGIT™ series manufactured by Rohm Tech Inc., Malden, Mass.; amine functionalized polyacrylates and polymethacrylates; proteins, such as gelatin and albumin; and carboxylic acid functionalized starches, such as starch glycolate.

[0319] Amphiphilic non-cellulosic polymers are copolymers of relatively hydrophilic and relatively hydrophobic monomers. Examples include acrylate and methacrylate copolymers. Exemplary commercial grades of such copolymers include the EUDRAGIT™ series, which are copolymers of methacrylates and acrylates.

[0320] An additional class of polymers includes ionizable and neutral (or non-ionizable) cellulosic polymers having at least one ester-linked and / or ether-linked substituent, the polymer having a degree of substitution of at least 0.05 for each substituent. Note that in the polymer nomenclature used herein, the ether-linked substituent is described before "cellulose" as a moiety attached to an ether group. For example, "cellulose ethyl benzoate" has an ethoxybenzoic acid substituent. Similarly, the ester-linked substituent is described after "cellulose" as a carboxylate. For example, "cellulose phthalate" has one carboxylic acid of each phthalic acid moiety ester-linked to the polymer and the other carboxylic acid unreacted.

[0321] It should also be noted that a polymer name such as "cellulose acetate phthalate" (CAP) refers to any of a family of cellulosic polymers that have acetate and phthalate groups attached via ester bonds to the majority of the hydroxyl groups of the cellulosic polymer. In general, the degree of substitution of each substituent can range from 0.05 to 2.9, so long as the other criteria of the polymer are met. "Degree of substitution" refers to the average number of three hydroxyls per saccharide repeat unit on the cellulose chain that is substituted. For example, if all hydroxyls on the cellulose chain are phthalate substituted, the degree of phthalate substitution is 3. Each polymer family type also includes cellulosic polymers to which relatively small amounts of additional substituents have been added that do not substantially change the performance of the polymer.

[0322] Amphiphilic cellulose includes polymers in which the parent cellulosic polymer is substituted with at least one relatively hydrophobic substituent at any or all of the three hydroxyl groups present on each saccharide repeat unit. The hydrophobic substituent can be essentially any substituent that can render the cellulosic polymer essentially water insoluble when substituted to a sufficiently high level or degree of substitution. Examples of hydrophobic substituents include ether-linked alkyl groups such as methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl, etc.; or ester-linked alkyl groups such as acetate, propionate, butyrate; and ether-linked and / or ester-linked aryl groups such as phenyl, benzoate, or phenylate. The hydrophilic regions of the polymer can be either the portions that are relatively unsubstituted because the unsubstituted hydroxyls themselves are relatively hydrophilic, or the regions that are substituted with hydrophilic substituents. Hydrophilic substituents include ether-linked or ester-linked non-ionizable groups, such as hydroxyalkyl substituents hydroxyethyl, hydroxypropyl, and alkyl ether groups such as ethoxyethoxy or methoxyethoxy. Particularly preferred hydrophilic substituents are those that are ether- or ester-linked ionizable groups, such as carboxylic acids, thiocarboxylic acids, substituted phenoxy groups, amines, phosphates, or sulfonates.

[0323] One class of cellulosic polymers includes neutral polymers, meaning that the polymer is substantially non-ionizable in aqueous solution. Such polymers contain non-ionizable substituents, which may be either ether- or ester-linked. Exemplary ether-linked non-ionizable substituents include alkyl groups such as methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl, hydroxyalkyl groups such as hydroxymethyl, hydroxyethyl, hydroxypropyl, and aryl groups such as phenyl. Exemplary ester-linked non-ionizable substituents include alkyl groups such as acetate, propionate, butyrate, and aryl groups such as phenylate. However, when aryl groups are included, it may be necessary for the polymer to include a sufficient amount of hydrophilic substituents so that the polymer has at least some aqueous solubility at any of the physiologically relevant pHs from 1 to 8.

[0324] Exemplary non-ionizable cellulosic polymers that can be used as the polymer include hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, methylcellulose, hydroxyethyl methylcellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose acetate, and hydroxyethyl ethyl cellulose.

[0325] An exemplary class of neutral cellulosic polymers are those that are amphiphilic, such as hydroxypropyl methylcellulose and hydroxypropyl cellulose acetate, in which cellulose repeat units having a relatively large number of methyl or acetate substituents compared to the unsubstituted hydroxyl or hydroxypropyl substituents constitute hydrophobic regions compared to other repeat units on the polymer.

[0326] A particular class of cellulosic polymers includes polymers that are at least partially ionizable at physiologically relevant pH and contain at least one ionizable substituent that can be either ether- or ester-linked.Exemplary ether-linked ionizable substituents include carboxylic acids, such as acetic acid, propionic acid, benzoic acid, salicylic acid, alkoxybenzoic acids such as ethoxybenzoic acid or propoxybenzoic acid, various isomers of alkoxyphthalic acids such as ethoxyphthalic acid and ethoxyisophthalic acid, various isomers of alkoxynicotinic acids such as ethoxynicotinic acid, and various isomers of picolinic acid such as ethoxypicolinic acid; thiocarboxylic acids such as thioacetic acid; substituted phenoxy groups such as hydroxyphenoxy; amines such as aminoethoxy, diethylaminoethoxy, trimethylaminoethoxy; phosphates such as phosphateethoxy; and sulfonates such as sulfonateethoxy. Exemplary ester-linked ionizable substituents include carboxylic acids, such as succinate, citrate, phthalate, terephthalate, isophthalate, trimellitate, and various isomers of pyridine dicarboxylic acid; thiocarboxylic acids, such as thiosuccinate; substituted phenoxy groups, such as aminosalicylic acid; amines, such as natural or synthetic amino acids, such as alanine or phenylalanine; phosphates, such as acetyl phosphate; and sulfonates, such as acetyl sulfonate.To provide the aromatic substituted polymer with the required water solubility, it is also desirable to attach sufficient hydrophilic groups, such as hydroxypropyl or carboxylic acid functional groups, to the polymer to make it water-soluble, at least at the pH value at which the ionizable group is ionized.In some cases, the aromatic substituent may itself be ionizable, such as a phthalate or trimellitate substituent.

[0327] Exemplary cellulosic polymers that are at least partially ionized at physiologically relevant pH include hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose succinate, hydroxypropyl cellulose acetate succinate, hydroxyethyl methylcellulose succinate, hydroxyethyl cellulose acetate succinate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose phthalate, hydroxyethyl methylcellulose acetate succinate, hydroxyethyl methylcellulose acetate phthalate, carboxyethyl cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose, carboxymethyl ethyl cellulose, ethyl carboxymethyl cellulose, cellulose acetate phthalate, methyl cellulose acetate phthalate, ethyl cellulose acetate phthalate, hydroxypropyl cellulose acetate phthalate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate phthalate, hydroxypropyl cellulose acetate phthalate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate phthalate, hydroxypropyl cellulose acetate phthalate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate phthalate, hydroxypropyl cellulose acetate phthalate succinate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate acetate succinate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate cellulose acetate trimellitate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose succinate phthalate, cellulose propionate phthalate, hydroxypropyl cellulose butyrate phthalate, cellulose acetate trimellitate, methylcellulose acetate trimellitate, ethyl cellulose acetate trimellitate, hydroxypropyl cellulose acetate trimellitate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate trimellitate, hydroxypropyl cellulose acetate trimellitate succinate, cellulose propionate trimellitate, cellulose butyrate trimellitate, cellulose acetate terephthalate, cellulose acetate isophthalate, cellulose acetate pyridine dicarboxylate, salicylic acid cellulose acetate, hydroxypropyl salicylic acid cellulose acetate, ethyl benzoic acid cellulose acetate, hydroxypropyl ethyl benzoic acid cellulose acetate, ethyl phthalic acid cellulose acetate, ethyl nicotinic acid cellulose acetate, and ethyl picolinic acid cellulose acetate.

[0328] Exemplary cellulosic polymers that meet the definition of amphiphilic, having hydrophilic and hydrophobic regions, include polymers such as cellulose acetate phthalate and cellulose acetate trimellitate, in which cellulose repeat units having one or more acetate substituents are hydrophobic relative to those having no acetate substituents or having one or more ionized phthalate or trimellitate substituents.

[0329] A further subset of cellulosic ionizable polymers are those that have both carboxylic acid functional aromatic and alkylate substituents and are therefore amphiphilic. Exemplary polymers include cellulose acetate phthalate, methyl cellulose acetate phthalate, ethyl cellulose acetate phthalate, hydroxypropyl cellulose acetate phthalate, hydroxylpropyl methyl cellulose acetate phthalate, hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose acetate phthalate, hydroxypropyl cellulose acetate phthalate succinate, cellulose propionate phthalate, hydroxypropyl cellulose butyrate phthalate, cellulose acetate trimellitate, methyl cellulose acetate trimellitate, ethyl cellulose acetate trimellitate, hydroxypropyl cellulose acetate trimellitate, hydroxyl cellulose acetate trimellitate, hydroxypropyl ... cellulose acetate trimellitate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate trimellitate succinate, cellulose propionate trimellitate, cellulose butyrate trimellitate, cellulose acetate terephthalate, cellulose acetate isophthalate, cellulose acetate pyridine dicarboxylate, cellulose acetate salicylate, hydroxypropyl salicylate cellulose acetate, ethyl benzoate cellulose acetate, hydroxypropyl ethyl benzoate cellulose acetate, ethyl phthalate cellulose acetate, ethyl nicotinate cellulose acetate, and ethyl picolinate cellulose acetate.

[0330] Another subset of ionizable cellulose-based polymers is one that has a non-aromatic carboxylate substituent. Exemplary polymers include hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose succinate, hydroxypropyl cellulose acetate succinate, hydroxyethyl methylcellulose acetate succinate, hydroxyethyl methylcellulose acetate succinate, and carboxymethyl ethylcellulose. These cellulose-based polymers that are at least partially ionized at physiologically relevant pH include, for example, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose phthalate, cellulose acetate phthalate, cellulose acetate trimellitate, and carboxymethyl ethylcellulose. In some embodiments, the polymer is hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate (HPMCAS).

[0331] Another class of polymers consists of neutralized acidic polymers. By "neutralized acidic polymer" is meant any acidic polymer in which the majority of the "acidic moieties" or "acidic substituents" are "neutralized", i.e., present in their deprotonated form. By "neutralized acidic cellulosic polymer" is meant any cellulosic "acidic polymer" in which the majority of the "acidic moieties" or "acidic substituents" are "neutralized". By "acidic polymer" is meant any polymer having a significant number of acidic moieties. Generally, a significant number of acidic moieties is about 0.1 milliequivalents of acidic moieties per gram of polymer or more. An "acidic moiety" includes any functional group that is sufficiently acidic that, upon contact with or dissolution in water, it is capable of increasing the hydrogen ion concentration by at least partially donating hydrogen cations to the water. This definition includes any functional group or functional groups having a pK of less than about 10. aThe term "substituent" includes when a functional group is covalently attached to a polymer having the formula: Exemplary classes of functional groups included in the above description include carboxylic acids, thiocarboxylic acids, phosphates, phenolic groups, and sulfonates. Such functional groups may form the primary structure of a polymer such as polyacrylic acid, but are more commonly covalently attached to the backbone of the parent polymer and are therefore referred to as "substituents."

[0332] The amount of concentration-enhancing polymer relative to the amount of drug (compound 1) present in the spray-dried dispersion depends on the drug and the concentration-enhancing polymer, and can vary widely between drug-to-polymer weight ratios of 0.01 to 5. However, in most cases, except when the drug dose is very low, such as 25 mg or less, the drug-to-polymer ratio is typically greater than 0.05 and less than 2.5, and in many cases, improvements in drug concentration or relative bioavailability are observed at drug-to-polymer ratios of 1 or less, and even 0.2 or less for some drugs. When the drug dose is about 25 mg or less, the drug-to-polymer weight ratio can be significantly less than 0.05. In general, regardless of dose, improvements in drug concentration or relative bioavailability increase as the drug-to-polymer weight ratio decreases. However, because there are practical limits to keeping the total mass of a tablet, capsule, or suspension low, it is often desirable to use a relatively high drug-to-polymer ratio as long as satisfactory results are obtained. The maximum drug:polymer ratio that will give satisfactory results will vary from drug to drug and is best determined by dissolution testing, as described below.

[0333] The spray-dried solid described herein can be a solid dispersion containing the compound described herein and pharma-ceutically acceptable polymer.The specific compounds described herein generally have low water solubility, and their absorption in vivo is limited by dissolution rate.The solid dispersion containing the compound can improve the bioavailability of the compound by increasing the solubility / dissolution of the compound.

[0334] The term "solid dispersion" as used herein refers to a dispersion of a pharma- ceutical active ingredient, such as a compound described herein, in a solid-state inert polymer matrix. A solid dispersion can be prepared by methods well known in the art, such as spray drying or hot melt extrusion. The matrix can be crystalline or amorphous. A solid dispersion contains a co-precipitate of a pharma- ceutical active ingredient with one or more water-soluble polymers, in which the pharma- ceutical active ingredient is uniformly dispersed within the polymer matrix formed from the polymer. The pharma- ceutical active ingredient can be present in an amorphous state, a crystalline dispersion form, or a combination thereof. It can also be finely dispersed or dissolved as a single molecule in the polymer matrix. A solid dispersion is typically prepared by spray drying or hot melt extrusion.

[0335] The method for preparing the solid dispersion includes (i) mixing the compound described herein with a polymer in an organic solvent to provide a feeder solution, and (ii) spray-drying the feeder solution as a fine spray through a nozzle into a chamber, where the solvent evaporates quickly to produce particles containing the compound and the polymer. Following the formation of the solid dispersion, the resulting spray-dried particles may be subjected to a secondary drying step to remove residual solvent. The secondary drying step may be carried out in a static or agitated dryer. Gas, humidified gas, vacuum may be applied to the secondary drying step, which is useful for more quickly removing residual solvent remaining in the spray-dried particles.

[0336] Any organic solvent may be used as long as it can easily dissolve or disperse the above-mentioned compounds and polymers. Examples of organic solvents include low carbon number alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, propanol, and isopropanol; ketones such as methyl ethyl ketone and butanone; and combinations thereof.

Enteric coatings include, but are not limited to, fatty acids, fats, phenyl salicylates, waxes, shellac, ammoniated shellac, and cellulose acetate phthalate. Sugar coated tablets are compressed tablets that are encased in a sugar coating that may help to mask unpleasant tastes or odors and protect the tablet from oxidation. Film coated tablets are compressed tablets that are covered with a thin layer or film of a water-soluble material. Film coatings include, but are not limited to, hydroxyethyl cellulose, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, polyethylene glycol 4000, and cellulose acetate phthalate. Film coatings impart the same general properties as sugar coatings. Multiple compressed tablets are compressed tablets made by more than one compression cycle, including layered tablets and press- or dry-coated tablets.

[0368] Tablet dosage forms may be prepared from the active ingredient in powdered, crystalline, or granular form, alone or in combination with one or more carriers or excipients described herein, including binders, disintegrants, controlled release polymers, lubricants, diluents, and / or colorants.

[0369] The tablets of the present disclosure may be formulated for immediate, sustained, extended, or modified release.

[0370] In some embodiments, the unit dosage forms described herein comprise one or more pharma- ceutically acceptable excipients selected from microcrystalline cellulose, lactose monohydrate (modified), croscarmellose sodium, hydroxypropyl cellulose, and magnesium stearate.

[0371] Liquid dosage forms for oral administration include, but are not limited to, pharma- ceutically acceptable emulsions, microemulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups, and elixirs. Liquid dosage forms may contain, in addition to the active compound, inert diluents commonly used in the art, such as water or other solvents, solubilizing and emulsifying agents, such as ethyl alcohol, 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 sorbitan fatty acid esters, and mixtures thereof. In addition to inert diluents, oral compositions may also contain adjuvants, such as wetting agents, emulsifying and suspending agents, sweeteners, flavoring agents, and aromatic agents.

[0372] Injectable preparations, for example, sterile injectable aqueous or oleaginous suspensions, can be formulated according to known techniques using suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents. Sterile injectable preparations can also be sterile injectable solutions, suspensions, or emulsions in non-toxic parenterally acceptable diluents or solvents, for example, as a solution in 1,3-butanediol. Acceptable vehicles and solvents that can be used include water, Ringer's solution (USP), and isotonic sodium chloride solution. In addition, sterile fixed oils are conventionally used as solvents or suspending media. For this purpose, any non-irritating fixed oil can be used, including synthetic mono- or diglycerides. In addition, fatty acids such as oleic acid are used in the preparation of injectables.

[0373] The injectable preparations can be sterilized, for example, by filtration through a bacterial-retaining filter, or by incorporating sterilizing agents in the form of sterile solid compositions which can be dissolved or dispersed in sterile water or other sterile injectable medium prior to use.

[0374] In order to prolong the effect of the compounds described herein, it is often desirable to slow the absorption of the compound from subcutaneous or intramuscular injection. This can be accomplished by using a liquid suspension of crystalline or amorphous material with poor water solubility. The rate of absorption of the compound thus depends on its rate of dissolution, which in turn may depend on crystal size and crystalline form. Alternatively, delayed absorption of a parenterally administered compound form is accomplished by dissolving or suspending the compound in an oil vehicle. Injectable depot forms are made by forming microencapsule matrices of the compound in biodegradable polymers such as polylactide-polyglycolide. Depending on the ratio of compound to polymer and the nature of the particular polymer employed, the release rate of the compound can be controlled. Examples of other biodegradable polymers include poly(orthoesters) and poly(anhydrides). Injectable depot formulations are also prepared by entrapping the compound in liposomes or microemulsions that are compatible with body tissues.

[0375] Compositions for rectal or vaginal administration are preferably suppositories which may be prepared by mixing a compound described herein with a suitable non-irritating excipient or carrier such as cocoa butter, polyethylene glycol, or a suppository wax which is solid at ambient temperature but liquid at body temperature and therefore melts in the rectal or vaginal cavity releasing the active compound.

[0376] The active compound may also be in microencapsulated form with one or more excipients as described above. The solid dosage forms of tablets, dragees, capsules, pills, and granules may be prepared with coatings and shells, such as enteric coatings, release-controlling coatings, and other coatings well known in the pharmaceutical formulation art. In such solid dosage forms, the active compound may be mixed with at least one inert diluent, such as sucrose, lactose, or starch. According to normal practice, such dosage forms may also contain additional substances other than inert diluents, for example, tableting lubricants and other tableting aids, such as magnesium stearate and microcrystalline cellulose. In the case of capsules, tablets, and pills, the dosage forms may also contain buffering agents. They may optionally contain opacifying agents, and may be of a composition that releases the active ingredient(s) only, or preferentially, in a certain part of the intestinal tract, optionally in a delayed manner. Examples of embedding compositions that may be used include polymeric substances and waxes.

[0377] The dosage form for topical or transdermal administration of the compounds described herein may include ointments, pastes, creams, lotions, gels, powders, solutions, sprays, inhalants, or patches. The active ingredient is mixed under sterile conditions with a pharma- ceutically acceptable carrier and, if necessary, with any necessary preservatives or buffers. Ophthalmic preparations, ear drops, and eye drops are also contemplated. In addition, transdermal patches may be used, which have the added advantage of providing controlled delivery of the compound to the body. Such dosage forms may be made by dissolving or dispensing the compound in a suitable medium. Absorption enhancers may also be used to increase the flux of the compound through the skin. The rate may be controlled by providing a rate-controlling membrane or by dispersing the compound in a polymer matrix or gel.

[0378] In some embodiments, the compositions described herein may include a prodrug of Compound 1. As used herein, the term "prodrug" means a compound that is convertible in vivo by metabolic means (e.g., hydrolysis) to the compound.

[0379] For oral administration in the form of tablets or capsules (e.g., gelatin capsules), the active drug components can be combined with oral non-toxic pharma- ceutically acceptable inert carriers, such as ethanol, glycerol, water, etc. Furthermore, if desired or necessary, suitable binders, lubricants, disintegrating agents, and coloring agents can also be incorporated into the mixture. Suitable binders include starch, magnesium aluminum silicate, starch paste, gelatin, methylcellulose, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, and / or polyvinylpyrrolidone, natural sugars, such as glucose or beta-lactose, corn sweeteners, natural and synthetic gums, such as acacia, tragacanth, or sodium alginate, polyethylene glycol, wax, etc. Lubricants used in these dosage forms include sodium oleate, sodium stearate, magnesium stearate, sodium benzoate, sodium acetate, sodium chloride, silica, talc, stearic acid, its magnesium or calcium salts, and / or polyethylene glycol, etc. Disintegrants include, but are not limited to, starch, methylcellulose, agar, bentonite, xanthan, gum starch, agar, alginic acid or its sodium salt, or effervescent mixture, croscarmellose or its sodium salt, etc. Diluents include, for example, lactose, dextrose, sucrose, mannitol, sorbitol, cellulose and / or glycine.

[0380] Tablets contain the active ingredient in a mixture with non-toxic pharma- ceutically acceptable excipients suitable for tablet manufacture.These excipients can be, for example, inert diluents such as calcium carbonate, sodium carbonate, lactose, calcium phosphate, or sodium phosphate; granulating and disintegrating agents such as corn starch, or alginic acid; binders such as starch, gelatin, or acacia, and lubricants such as magnesium stearate, stearic acid, or talc.Tablets can be uncoated or can be coated by known techniques to delay disintegration and absorption in the gastrointestinal tract, thereby providing a sustained action over a longer period of time.

[0381] The therapeutically effective dose of the compounds described herein in oral formulations may vary from 0.15 mg / kg to 20 mg / kg of patient body weight per day, more specifically 0.015 to 1.0 mg / kg, and may be administered in one or multiple doses per day. For oral administration, the drug may be delivered in the form of a tablet or capsule containing 1 mg to 100 mg, specifically 1 mg, 5 mg, 10 mg, 20 mg, 50 mg, or 100 mg of active ingredient, or at least 1%, 2%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 40%, 50% (w / w) of active ingredient. For example, a capsule may contain 50 mg of active ingredient, or 5 to 10% (w / w) of active ingredient. For example, a tablet may contain 100 mg of active ingredient, or 20 to 50% (w / w) of active ingredient. For example, tablets may contain, in addition to the active ingredient, disintegrants or emollients (e.g., croscarmellose or its sodium salt and methylcellulose), diluents (e.g., microcrystalline cellulose), and lubricants (e.g., sodium stearate and magnesium stearate). Drugs may be administered daily, either once, twice or more times a day.

[0382] For administration by inhalation, the compounds can be delivered in the form of an aerosol spray from pressured container or dispenser which contains a suitable propellant, such as a gas like carbon dioxide, or a nebulizer.

[0383] For transmucosal or transdermal administration, a penetrant appropriate for the barrier to be permeated is used in the formulation. Such penetrants are widely known in the art and include, for example, for transmucosal administration, detergents, bile salts, and fusidic acid derivatives. Transmucosal administration can be achieved through the use of nasal sprays or suppositories. For transdermal administration, the active compound is formulated into an ointment, salve, gel, or cream, as is widely known in the art. Penetration enhancers promote the penetration of drugs through the corneal barrier and alter the integrity of the epithelial cell layer. Penetration enhancers frequently used in ophthalmic formulations include cyclodextrin, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), sodium glycocholate and related cholates, Tween 20 (nonionic polysorbate surfactant), Brij 35 (polyoxyethylene lauryl ether), saponin, and bile salts. In general, penetration enhancers such as EDTA and cholates temporarily loosen the tight junctions between adjacent cells of the corneal epithelium. Thus, permeation enhancers when applied topically to the eye have been successfully applied to the delivery of proteins and peptides across the corneal epithelium. In some embodiments, the formulations described herein include a penetration enhancer such as polyoxyethylene-9-lauryl ether, sodium deoxycholate, sodium glycocholate, or sodium taurocholate.

[0399] In some embodiments, the solid form of Compound 1 is substantially amorphous or crystalline, or a mixture thereof. In some embodiments, the solid form is substantially free of impurities.

[0400] In certain embodiments, Compound 1 is a crystalline solid. In some embodiments, Compound 1 is a crystalline solid and is substantially free of amorphous Compound 1. As used herein, the term "substantially free of amorphous Compound 1" means that the compound does not contain a significant amount of amorphous Compound 1. In some embodiments, at least about 95% by weight of crystalline Compound 1 is present. In still other embodiments described herein, at least about 99% by weight of crystalline Compound 1 is present.

[0401] The compound may be formulated as an SDD formulation. As used herein, "SDD" refers to a pharmaceutical formulation (e.g., of Compound 1 or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof) that is a spray-dried formulation. In some embodiments, the formulation comprises a compound of the present disclosure (e.g., Compound 1 or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof) and hypromellose acetate succinate (HPMCAS). In one embodiment, the HMPCAS is HPMCAS-M, where "M" indicates (acetyl content 7.0%-11.0%, succinoyl content 10%-14%). The use of spray drying to produce powders from fluid feedstocks is well known, with applications ranging from milk powder to bulk chemicals and pharmaceuticals. See U.S. Pat. No. 4,187,617 and Mujumbar et al., 91 Drying, pages 56-73 (1991). The use of spray drying to form solid amorphous dispersions of drugs and concentration-enhancing polymers is also known. See European Patent Application Nos. 0901786, 1027886, 1027887, 1027888, and PCT Application Nos. WO00 / 168092 and WO00 / 168055, each of which is incorporated herein by reference. A typical spray drying apparatus comprises a drying chamber, an atomizing means for atomizing the solvent-containing liquid fed into the drying chamber, a source of heated drying gas directed into the drying chamber, and a dried product collecting means for separating the dried product from the cooled drying gas and the vaporized solvent stream after exiting the drying chamber. Examples of such apparatus include Niro models PSD-1, PSD-2, and PSD-4 (Niro A / S, Soeborg, Denmark).

[0402] As used herein, "TPGS" or "vitamin E TPGS" as a descriptor for a pharmaceutical formulation of a compound of the present disclosure refers to a pharmaceutical formulation (e.g., of compound 1 or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof) that includes the following components: (a) an active compound (e.g., compound 1 or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof), (b) one or more diluents (e.g., microcrystalline cellulose), (c) one or more solubilizers (e.g., D-α-tocopherol polyethylene glycol succinate [vitamin E TPGS]), and (d) one or more binders (e.g., povidone). The formulation may be prepared using a granulation process (e.g., wet granulation). As used herein, "granulation" refers to a process that produces larger or smaller granules or particles of a substance or mixture of substances. This process may also remove fine granules and improve flowability within the formulation. Both wet granulation and / or dry granulation may be used. Dry granulation is achieved using only a combination of granules without the need for a liquid thereon. Slugging uses a tablet press to form large tablets of variable weight due to the poor flowability of the formulation. The resulting slugs are then run through a granulator to break them into granules, which are then compressed again to produce the final granular product.

[0403] All publications, patents, patent applications, and other documents cited in this application are incorporated by reference in their entirety for all purposes to the same extent as if each individual publication, patent, patent application, or other document was individually indicated to be incorporated by reference for all purposes.

[0404] All features of each aspect of the invention apply mutatis mutandis to all other aspects.

[0405] In order that the invention described herein may be more fully understood, the following examples are set forth. It should be understood that these examples are for illustrative purposes only and are not to be construed as limiting this invention in any manner. EXAMPLES

[0406] Example 1: Dissolution of Compound 1 and the effect of excipients on it The main formulation challenge presented by Compound 1 was its poor aqueous solubility, which may limit its absorption in vivo. Two anhydrous nonsolvated forms of Compound 1 (Forms C and Material D) were identified in polymorph screening, as well as two variable hydrates (Form A with up to 3 moles of water, and Form J with 1-2 moles of water) and several solvates. Through competitive slurry studies, Form C was determined to be the most stable anhydrous nonsolvated form. The hydrate Form A converted to Form C upon dehydration, and possibly Form J as well.

[0407] The conversion of anhydrous form C to hydrate form A is achieved by increasing the water activity (a w ) was about 0.62 to greater than 0.82. After 1 day, no conversion of Form C to Form A was observed in water itself, likely due to its low solubility. After 11 days of storage of Form C at room temperature at 90% RH, no conversion to Form A was observed. As shown in Table 1 below, poor solubility of the two polymorphic forms of Compound 1 (Form C and Form A) in various aqueous systems (left column) is observed. [Table 7] [Table 8]

[0408] Partition coefficient ClogP = 1.96.

[0409] Dissociation constant Based on the pKa of the protonated form of 1.94, the dissociation constant K a =1.15×10 -2 .

[0410] Hygroscopic Compound 1 form C showed limited hygroscopicity with hysteresis-free water sorption of 1.75% between 5 and 95% relative humidity. The variable hydrate form A showed significant hygroscopicity with water sorption of 4.58% between 5 and 95% RH.

[0411] Melting point Compound 1 Form C had a melting onset of 244.5°C with a peak at 244.8°C by DSC.

[0412] pKa and pH values The pKa of the protonated form of Compound 1 was determined to be 1.94±0.01. The pH of a saturated aqueous solution of Compound 1 was 8.6.

[0413] We hypothesized that the use of Vitamin E TPGS in a pharmaceutical formulation would increase the solubility of Compound 1 and overcome the solubility issue. A capsule dissolution study was used as a screening tool to compare different preclinical formulations. Figure 1 shows the dissolution of crystalline Compound 1 as Form C blended with microcrystalline cellulose (MCC; bottom curve) versus two granulations of Compound 1 as Form C with 5% (second-lowest or middle curve) or 20% (top curve) Vitamin E TPGS and MCC. As can be seen in Figure 1, the addition of Vitamin E TPGS significantly increased the dissolution rate and overall solubility.

[0414] The TPGS formulation was used in early Phase I clinical trials. Late Phase I and current Phase II clinical trials utilize an alternative SDD formulation, which is described below. Optimization of the SDD formulation included evaluation of several polymers and comparison of drug loading of selected polymers. From the SDD screening run, it was found that a 50:50 ratio of compound 1 and polymer HPMC-AS-M (a moderately substituted grade of HPMC-AS) provided the best combination of properties including overall spray drying yield, lowest hygroscopicity under high humidity conditions, and best dissolution performance, while balancing the need for a relatively small capsule size for clinical use. X-ray powder diffraction confirmed that the SDD process produced an amorphous API dispersion. A human PK evaluation of the relative bioavailability of the TPGS formulation versus the SDD formulation was performed. Overall, exposure was similar or slightly better, with a calculated relative %F of 128%.

[0415] As described herein, SDD formulations containing 50% Compound 1:50% HPMC-AS-M have been successfully formulated into size #3 capsules containing 2 mg, 5 mg, 15 mg, or 25 mg of Compound 1, and size #2 capsules containing 50 mg of Compound 1. These HPMC-AS-M based SDD formulations are expected to provide good exposure of Compound 1 when administered orally in a clinical setting.

[0416] Initial toxicity studies utilized a formulation of Compound 1 in 10% Cremophor EL / 10% propylene glycol / 80% water. However, repeated administration of this formulation to rats demonstrated a "plateau" in systemic exposure where higher doses did not result in significantly higher exposure. Therefore, additional formulations were evaluated in both rats and monkeys, including a nanodispersion formulation in 0.5% hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) E5 and 0.5% Tween® 80 in deionized water, and a spray-dried dispersion (SDD) formulation in 0.5% MC 400cP and 0.1% Tween® 80 in deionized water. The copolymer used in the initial SDD formulation was polyvinylpyrrolidone / vinyl acetate (PVP-VA) with a drug loading of 20%. This spray-dried dispersion formulation demonstrated good solubility compared to the crystalline material and reproducibly demonstrated the highest systemic exposure achievable in animals. This formulation was used in the initial pivotal repeat-dose toxicity study (28 days total), as well as in vivo safety pharmacology and genotoxicity studies. Subsequent development of the SDD formulation was undertaken to increase drug loading and optimize the formulation properties for clinical use. These efforts resulted in an SDD formulation with 50% drug loading using hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate (HPMCAS) as the polymer. This improved SDD formulation was used in long-term repeat-dose toxicity studies in rabbits and developmental toxicity studies, and also served as the basis for the clinical formulation.

[0417] Example 2: Development of an oral capsule formulation of Compound 1 Drug products of Compound 1 in strengths of 5 mg and 25 mg were prepared. Drug product descriptions are shown in Table 3. [Table 9]

[0418] composition The compositions of Compound 1 pharmaceuticals at doses of 5 mg and 25 mg are shown in Tables 4 and 5. [Table 10] [Table 11]

[0419] excess amount There is no excess.

[0420] Sealing of containers Container closure systems for Compound 1 drug product 5 mg and 25 mg are provided in Table 6 below. [Table 12]

[0421] Pharmaceutical ingredients drug substance Compatibility of drug substance and excipients Excipient suitability was determined by conducting accelerated and real-time stability studies of the formulated drug in capsules identical in composition and preparation method to the intended clinical dosage form.

[0422] Physicochemical characteristics of the drug substance physical properties The physical properties of Compound 1 are summarized above. Two major polymorphic forms, A and C, were evaluated during development. Form A is a low melting hydrate containing up to 3 equivalents of water, which can convert to Form C upon heating or drying. Form C is the most stable polymorph observed to date and was selected for development. GLP and GMP batches of drug substance were supplied as Form C. [Table 13]

[0423] chemical properties pKa: 1.94 Chemical stability in the solid state (crystalline and amorphous) and in solution: Compound 1 drug substance was stress tested to gain insight into the intrinsic stability of the molecule, to identify potential degradation products, and to facilitate the development of stability-indicating analytical methods.

[0424] Excipients MCC (microcrystalline cellulose) was used as an inert filler in capsule formulation. The addition of MCC increases the volume of the fill material, thus increasing the accuracy of the volumetric filling operation. Furthermore, MCC generally has good density and powder flow properties, which is helpful for capsule filling operations.

[0425] PVP K30 (Polyvinylpyrrolidone) is used as a binder in the wet granulation process. PVP is a very commonly used binder that helps hold the agglomerates of API and filler (MCC) particles together.

[0426] Vitamin E TPGS is a commercially available non-ionic surfactant derived from vitamin E. It is commonly used to improve the bioavailability of poorly water-soluble drugs administered orally. It was selected based on the high solubility of the drug substance compound 1 in this excipient.

[0427] Container Closing System explanation Compound 1 drug capsules, 5 mg and 25 mg, are packaged in 60 cc HDPE bottles with induction seals and child resistant caps.

[0428] Material Selection HDPE bottles are the type of container closure system most commonly used in the pharmaceutical industry for capsule and tablet formulations and are readily available. HDPE is chemically inert and offers good protection from moisture and light.

[0429] Moisture protection Capsules of Compound 1 showed no sensitivity to moisture. As a result, the use of a desiccant was not necessary.

[0430] Light protection An ICH photostability study demonstrated that Compound 1 is not light sensitive. Additionally, the bottle is opaque, minimizing exposure to light during drug storage.

[0431] safety Because the Compound 1 drug product is delivered in a capsule, the acceptance criteria for microbial limits are set forth in Table 8. These limits are in accordance with the USP <1111> It is based on the "Acceptance Criteria for Microbiological Quality of Nonsterile Dosage Forms" stipulated in "Microbiological Examination of Nonsterile Products:Acceptance Criteria for Pharmaceutical Preparations and Substances for Pharmaceutical Use." [Table 14]

[0432] USP <61> and <62> Microbial limit testing for release and stability performed in accordance with the FDA guidelines showed that total aerobic microbial counts and total yeast and mold counts did not exceed the acceptance criteria, and no microbial growth was observed. Escherichia coli was absent in all lots tested.

[0433] Manufacturing process description According to the flow diagram shown in FIG. 2 of this disclosure, the formulation process included wet granulation of Compound 1 with MCC (microcrystalline cellulose, diluent, Avicel PH101), Vitamin E TPGS (solubility enhancer), PVP K30 (polyvinylpyrrolidone, binder), and water. After granulation, the wet granules were dried in a fluid bed dryer to LOD≦1.5%, passed through a Comil to break down agglomerates, and blended to obtain bulk capsule fill material. 5 mg capsules were filled using an Xcelodose system based on the weight of the input material. 25 mg capsules were filled using a Profill system based on the volume. Content uniformity testing was performed after capsule filling. Both 5 mg and 25 mg strength capsules were filled into size #2 hard shell HPMC-based capsules. Filled capsules were packaged in 12 counts into 60 cc HPDE bottles.

[0434] In-process control explained [Table 15]

[0435] Standard: Compound 1 drug, capsule The quality control specifications for Compound 1 pharmaceutical capsules 5 mg and 25 mg are shown in Table 10. [Table 16]

[0436] HPLC method for identification and impurities Identification The retention times and UV spectra of the samples were compared to those of Compound 1 drug substance reference standard. The conditions for the reverse phase HPLC method are listed in Table 11.

[0437] impurities The HPLC method for impurities was based on that of the drug substance. The peak area of ​​each related substance was divided by the total peak area to obtain the percentage of each. Total impurities were expressed as the sum of each individual impurity. Purity was obtained by subtracting the total impurities from 100%. Table 11 shows a description of the method. [Table 17]

[0438] Potency, Percent Label Claims, and Dosage Uniformity Potency, percent label claim, and dose uniformity were determined by HPLC with UV detection. The peak area of ​​the Compound 1 peak was compared to that of the reference standard. Table 12 shows the method conditions for obtaining chromatographic purity. For percent label claim, potency was compared to that of the nominal value. For dose uniformity, the USP <905> Calculate the tolerance according to. [Table 18]

[0439] Dissolution Dissolved in USP <711> The dissolution was performed according to the USP Apparatus II with a paddle speed set at 75 rpm in 900 mL of dissolution medium at 37° C. After the 60 minute time point, the paddle speed was increased to 200 rpm. The dissolution medium was 0.1 N HCl with 1% sodium lauryl sulfate. Samples were removed and analyzed by HPLC with UV detection at 343 nm against reference standards. The chromatographic conditions for the HPLC method are listed in Table 13. [Table 19]

[0440] Validation of analytical procedures: Compound 1 Drugs, capsules Analytical procedures were evaluated to a level appropriate for the current stage of development.

[0445] Stability study design The stability of Compound 1 is presented in Table 15. The protocol was performed under both the proposed long-term storage conditions of 2-8° C. and accelerated storage conditions of 25° C. / 60% RH and 40° C. / 75% RH. [Table 21]

[0446] A representative stability protocol for Compound 1 stability is provided in Table 16. The protocol was designed for a 2-year study under both the proposed long-term storage conditions of 2-8°C and accelerated storage conditions of 25°C / 60% RH and 40°C / 75% RH. [Table 22]

[0447] Batches and packages tested Table 17 summarizes the Compound 1 drug product lots that were at steady state. [Table 23]

[0448] Stability Data Results of stability data under established storage and stress conditions The stability data available for the pilot batches (5 mg and 25 mg respectively) are given in the table below. [Table 24] [Table 25] [Table 26] [Table 27] [Table 28] [Table 29]

[0449] Example 3: Batch formulation of pharmaceutical capsule IMPD (such as 2 mg). The table below shows a summary of the batches of the various dosage forms. [Table 30] [Table 31] [Table 32] [Table 33] [Table 34] [Table 35]

[0450] Description of manufacturing process and process control According to the flow diagram shown in Figure 4 for the manufacture of Compound 1 SDD drug product, SDD was prepared by a formulation process by dissolving Compound 1 and HPMC-AS in an organic solvent, then passing the liquid through a 100 mesh screen, followed by spray drying to produce SDI (spray dried intermediate), followed by secondary tray drying to remove residual solvent. After spray drying, in-process testing is performed to ensure that the residual solvent is below ICH levels.

[0451] Once dried, the SDI is blended with intragranular excipients, then milled using a Comil, blended again, and finally dry granulated using a roller compactor against a 1.00 mm screen. This also produces ribbons that are milled at the same time. The resulting dry granules are further blended with extragranular excipients before being filled into capsules using a Profill capsule filling system. Fill weights can be adjusted based on the results of in-process control over potency. Varying amounts of intragranular and extragranular excipients are used to produce blends that make up capsules of 2 mg, 5 mg, 15 mg, 25 mg, and 50 mg strengths, such that the 2 mg, 5 mg, 15 mg, and 25 mg blends can fit into size #3 HPMC capsules, and the 50 mg blends can fit into size #2 HPMC capsules.

[0452] The spray-dried intermediate of compound 1 was stored in a double HDPE bag with desiccant between the bags and then further enclosed in a heat-sealed Mylar pouch at 15-30 °C.

[0453] Compound 1 SDI was placed under stability conditions to support long-term storage. Data is available for 12 months at long-term conditions and 6 months at accelerated conditions. Stability protocols were run at both the proposed long-term storage conditions of 25° C. / 60% RH and accelerated storage conditions of 40° C. / 75% RH. Available data are shown in Tables 30 and 31, respectively. No changes were observed under either condition. Stability studies may be extended beyond 24 months to support longer-term storage of this intermediate. [Table 36] [Table 37] [Table 38]

[0454] Dose Uniformity, Assay, and Impurities Dose uniformity and assay were determined by HPLC with UV detection. Peak area of ​​Compound 1 peak was compared to that of the reference standard. Peak area of ​​each related substance was divided by total peak area to obtain percentage of each. Total impurities are expressed as the sum of each individual impurity. Purity was obtained by subtracting total impurities from 100%. Method conditions are shown in Table 32. In a typical batch produced by these methods, SDD drug product produced a chromatogram with very high purity of Compound 1 (retention time about 14.57 minutes) and very low levels of impurities. [Table 39] [Table 40] [Table 41]

[0455] Dissolution Dissolved in USP <711> The dissolution was performed according to the USP Apparatus II with a paddle speed set at 100 rpm in 900 mL of dissolution medium at 37° C. After the 60 minute time point, the paddle speed was increased to 250 rpm. The dissolution medium was 20 mM KH2PO4 aqueous solution pH 6.8 containing 1% sodium lauryl sulfate. Samples were removed and analyzed by HPLC with UV detection at 266 nm against reference standards. The chromatographic conditions for the HPLC method are listed in Table 35. Purity was assessed by chromatograms. [Table 42]

[0456] Validation of analytical procedures The analytical procedures described herein have been validated to a level appropriate to the current stage of development.

[0457] HPLC methods for identity, assay, dose uniformity, and quantitation of impurities in Compound 1 SDD drug product were qualified for accuracy, precision, linearity, specificity, limit of quantitation, range, and solution stability. Methods for dissolution were qualified for accuracy, precision, linearity, specificity, range, and solution stability. Karl Fischer method for water content was qualified for accuracy and precision.
