Background Art

[0002] Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptors are a class of G protein-coupled receptors that are targets of the lipid signaling molecule sphingosine-1-phosphate. Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive sphingolipid that has been demonstrated to induce many cellular processes, including platelet aggregation, cell proliferation, cell morphology, tumor cell invasion, endothelial cell chemotaxis, and angiogenesis, rearrangement of the cytoskeleton in many cell types for the control of immune cell movement, vascular homeostasis, and intercellular communication between the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral organ systems. S1P can bind to members of the endothelial differentiation gene family (EDG receptors) of plasma membrane-localized G protein-coupled receptors. To date, five members of this family, S1P1 (EDG-1), S1P2 (EDG-5), S1P3 (EDG-3), S1P4 (EDG-6) and S1P5 (EDG-8), have been identified as S1P receptors in different cell types. S1P receptor modulators are compounds that signal as agonists or antagonists at one or more S1P receptors. Because S1P mediates a wide variety of cellular responses, S1P receptor modulators are promising targets for various therapeutic indications.

Mode for Carrying Out the Invention

[0047] Sphingosine-1-phosphate receptors regulate fundamental biological processes such as cell proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, cytoskeletal organization, endothelial cell chemotaxis, immune cell trafficking, and mitogenesis induction. Sphingosine-1-phosphate receptors are also involved in immune-modulation and are directly involved in the suppression of innate immune responses from T cells. Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptors are divided into five subtypes, S1PR1, S1PR2, S1PR3, S1PR4, and S1PR5. They are expressed in various tissues and are found at the highest density in leukocytes, but each subtype exhibits different cell specificities.

[0048] In one aspect, there is administration to a mammal of at least one S1P receptor modulator described herein in the treatment of a disease, disorder, or condition that would benefit from modulation of an S1P receptor. In some examples, there is administration to a mammal of at least one S1P receptor modulator described herein in the treatment of a disease, disorder, or condition that would benefit from selective modulation of an S1P receptor subtype. In some embodiments, there is administration to a mammal of at least one S1P receptor modulator described herein in the treatment of a disease, disorder, or condition that would benefit from selective modulation of two S1P receptor subtypes. In some embodiments, there is administration to a mammal of at least one S1P receptor modulator described herein in the treatment of a disease, disorder, or condition that would benefit from selective modulation of one S1P receptor subtype.

Chemical formula

[0051] In some embodiments, pharmaceutically acceptable salts of Compound 1 are described herein. In relation to Compound 1, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" refers to a salt of Compound 1 that does not cause significant irritation to the administered mammal and does not substantially inhibit the biological activity and properties of the compound. In some embodiments, as pharmaceutically acceptable salts, - acid addition salts formed by reacting Compound 1 with an organic acid, wherein the organic acid includes aliphatic mono- and dicarboxylic acids, alkanoic acids substituted with phenyl, hydroxyalkanoic acids, alkanedioic acids, aromatic acids, aliphatic and aromatic sulfonic acids, amino acids, etc., and, for example, acetic acid, adipic acid, trifluoroacetic acid, propionic acid, glycolic acid, pyruvic acid, oxalic acid, maleic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, fumaric acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, benzoic acid, cinnamic acid, mandelic acid, methanesulfonic acid, ethanesulfonic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, salicylic acid, etc., acid addition salts - acid addition salts formed by reacting Compound 1 with an inorganic acid, wherein the inorganic acid includes hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid, hydroiodic acid, hydrofluoric acid, phosphorous acid, etc., acid addition salts are included.

[0052] In some embodiments, (R)-5-(2,5-dichloro-4-(5-(8-chloro-6-(trifluoromethyl)imidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)phenoxy)piperidin-2-one includes a solvated form (solvate). The solvate contains either a stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric amount of the solvent and is formed in the process of product formation or separation using pharmaceutically acceptable solvents such as water, ethanol, methanol, tert-butyl methyl ether (MTBE), diisopropyl ether (DIPE), ethyl acetate, isopropyl acetate, isopropyl alcohol, methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK), methyl ethyl ketone (MEK), acetone, nitromethane, tetrahydrofuran (THF), dichloromethane (DCM), dioxane, heptane, toluene, anisole, acetonitrile, etc. In some embodiments, the solvate is formed using, but not limited to, Class 3 solvents. In some embodiments, the solvate is formed using, but not limited to, Class 2 solvents. The categories of solvents are defined, for example, in the International Conference on Harmonization of Technical Requirements for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH), “Impurities: Guidelines for Residual Solvents Q3C(R6),” (October 2016). Hydrates are formed when the solvent is water, and alcoholates are formed when the solvent is alcohol.

[0053] In other embodiments, (R)-5-(2,5-dichloro-4-(5-(8-chloro-6-(trifluoromethyl)imidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)phenoxy)piperidin-2-one is prepared in various forms including, but not limited to, an amorphous phase, a crystalline form, a milled form, and a nanoparticle form. In some embodiments, Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is amorphous and anhydrous. In some embodiments, Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is crystalline. In some embodiments, Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is crystalline and anhydrous.

[0054] While not intending to be bound by any particular theory, certain solid forms are characterized by physical properties suitable for pharmaceutical and therapeutic forms, such as stability, solubility, and dissolution rate. Further, while not desiring to be bound by any particular theory, certain solid forms are characterized by physical properties (such as density, compressibility, hardness, morphology, friability, adhesiveness, solubility, water uptake, electrical properties, thermal behavior, solid reactivity, physical stability, and chemical stability) that affect particular processes (such as production, filtration, washing, drying, milling, mixing, tableting, flowability, dissolution, formulation, and lyophilization) that render the particular solid form suitable for the manufacture of solid dosage forms. Such properties can be determined using specific analytical chemistry techniques including, but not limited to, the solid state analytical techniques described herein (such as X-ray diffraction, microscopy, spectroscopy, and thermal analysis).

[0055] Crystalline form The identification and selection of solid forms of pharmaceutical compounds is complex considering that changes in solid form can affect various physical and chemical properties, which can result in benefits or drawbacks in processing, formulation, stability, bioavailability, storage, and handling (e.g., transportation), among other important pharmaceutical properties. Useful pharmaceutical solids include crystalline and amorphous solids, depending on the product and its mode of administration. Amorphous solids are characterized by the absence of long-range structural order, while crystalline solids are characterized by structural periodicity. The desired class of pharmaceutical solid depends on the specific application; amorphous solids are sometimes selected, for example, based on an enhanced dissolution profile, while crystalline solids may be desirable for properties such as physical or chemical stability.

[0056] Whether crystalline or amorphous, the solid forms of pharmaceutical compounds include single-component and multi-component solids. Single-component solids consist essentially of the pharmaceutical compound or active ingredient in the absence of other compounds. The diversity among single-component crystalline materials can potentially arise from the phenomenon of polymorphism, where multiple three-dimensional arrangements exist for a particular pharmaceutical compound.

[0057] In particular, it is not possible to predict a priori not only how to prepare successfully, but even whether there are crystalline forms of the compound (for reference, see, for example, Braga and Grepioni, 2005, “Making crystals from crystals: a green route to crystal engineering and polymorphism,” Chem. Commun.: 3635 - 3645 (with respect to crystal engineering, the results can be unpredictable if the instructions are not very precise and / or other external factors affect the process); Jones et al., 2006, “Pharmaceutical Cocrystals: An Emerging Approach to Physical Property Enhancement,” MRS Bulletin 31: 875 - 879 (currently, it is generally not possible to computationally predict the number of observable polymorphs even for the simplest molecules); Price, 2004, “The computational prediction of pharmaceutical crystal structures and polymorphism,” Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews 56: 301 - 319 (“Price”); and Bernstein, 2004, “Crystal Structure Prediction and Polymorphism,” ACA Transactions 39: 14 - 23 (much still needs to be learned and done before even fewer polymorphs can be declared with any confidence in the ability to predict the crystal structure).

[0058] The various possible solid forms give rise to potential diversity in the physical and chemical properties for a given pharmaceutical compound. The discovery and selection of solid forms are very important in the development of effective, stable, and marketable pharmaceuticals.

[0089] Suitable solvents Therapeutic agents administrable to mammals such as humans must be prepared in accordance with regulatory guidelines. Such government regulatory guidelines are referred to as the "Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) Rules for the Manufacture and Quality Control of Pharmaceuticals and Quasi-Drugs". The GMP guidelines outline acceptable levels of contamination of the active therapeutic agent, for example, the amount of residual solvent in the final product. In some embodiments, the solvents disclosed herein are suitable for use in GMP facilities and are consistent with industrial safety concerns. The categories of solvents are defined, for example, in the International Conference on Harmonization of Technical Requirements for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH), "Impurities: Guidelines for Residual Solvents Q3C(R6)" (October 2016).

[0090] Solvents are classified into three classes. Class 1 solvents are toxic and should be avoided. Class 2 solvents are solvents with restricted use in the manufacture of therapeutic agents. Class 3 solvents are potentially of low toxicity and have a low risk to human health. The data on Class 3 solvents indicate that they are of low toxicity in acute or short-term studies and are also negative in genotoxicity tests.

[0091] Class 1 solvents to be avoided are benzene, carbon tetrachloride, 1,2-dichloroethane, 1,1-dichloroethene, and 1,1,1-trichloroethane.

It is understood that the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory only and are not restrictive of any subject matter. In this application, the use of the singular includes the plural unless specifically stated otherwise. As used in the specification and the appended claims, the singular forms "a", "an", and "the" include plural referents unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. In this application, the use of "or" means "and / or" unless specifically stated otherwise. Further, the use of the term "including" is not limiting in the same manner as the other forms such as "include", "includes", "included", etc. The term "comprising" (and related terms such as "comprise", "comprises", "having", "including", etc.) is not intended to exclude, in other embodiments, for example, embodiments of any composition, mixture, method, or process described herein from consisting of or consisting essentially of the recited features. The term "about" when referring to a number or a range of numbers means that the recited number or range of numbers is an approximation within the scope of experimental variability (or within statistical experimental error), and thus the number or range of numbers may vary between 1% and 15% of the recited number or range of numbers.

[0099] The section headings used herein are for organizational purposes only and are not to be construed as limiting the described inventive subject matter. All documents or portions of documents cited in this application, including but not limited to patents, patent applications, articles, books, manuals, and papers, are hereby expressly incorporated by reference in their entirety.

[0100] The terms "acceptable" or "pharmaceutically acceptable" as used herein with respect to a formulation, composition, or ingredient mean that they have no persistent deleterious effect on the general health of the subject being treated, or that they do not inhibit the biological activity or properties of the compound and are relatively non-toxic.

[0101] As used herein, "amelioration" of a particular disease, disorder, or condition by administration of a particular compound or pharmaceutical composition refers to any reduction in severity, delay in onset, blunting of progression, or shortening of duration, whether permanent or temporary, fixed or transient, that results from or is associated with administration of the compound or composition.

[0102] "Bioavailability" refers to the percentage of a compound 1 administered that is delivered to the systemic circulation of the animal or human being studied. The complete exposure (AUC (0~∞) ) of a drug when administered intravenously is generally defined as 100% bioavailable (F%). "Oral bioavailability" refers to the extent to which compound 1 is absorbed into the systemic circulation when the pharmaceutical composition is taken orally, compared to intravenous injection.

[0103] "Plasma concentration" refers to the concentration of compound 1 in the plasma component of the blood of a subject. It should be understood that the plasma concentration of compound 1 can vary significantly from subject to subject due to variability associated with metabolism and / or potential interactions with other therapeutic agents. According to one embodiment disclosed herein, the plasma concentration of compound 1 can be different for each subject. Similarly, values such as the maximum plasma concentration (C max ), or the time to reach the maximum plasma concentration (T max ), or the total area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC (0~∞) ) can be different for each subject. Due to this variability, the amount required to constitute a "therapeutically effective amount" of compound 1 can be different for each subject.

[0104] As used herein, terms such as "co-administration" are meant to encompass the administration of a selected therapeutic agent to a single patient and are intended to include treatment regimens in which the agents are administered by the same or different routes or at the same or different times.

[0105] "Effective amount" or "therapeutically effective amount," as used herein, refers to an amount of an administered agent or compound sufficient to reduce to some extent one or more of the symptoms of a disease or disorder being treated. The result can be that the signs, symptoms, or causes of a disease are reduced and / or alleviated, or that any other desired change in a biological system can be brought about. For example, an "effective amount" for therapeutic use is the amount of a composition (including a compound disclosed herein) necessary to clinically sufficiently reduce the symptoms of a disease without causing undue adverse side effects. The appropriate "effective amount" in any individual case can be determined using techniques such as dose escalation studies. The term "therapeutically effective amount" includes, for example, an amount effective for prophylaxis. An "effective amount" of a compound disclosed herein is an amount effective to achieve a desired pharmacological effect or improvement in treatment without causing undue adverse side effects. It should be noted that the "effective amount" or "therapeutically effective amount" can vary from subject to subject depending on variations in the metabolism of Compound 1, the age, weight, general condition of the subject, the disease being treated, the severity of the disease being treated, and the judgment of the prescribing physician. By way of example only, a therapeutically effective amount can be determined by a stepwise dose escalation clinical trial.

[0106] The term "enhance or enhancing" means an increase or extension in either efficacy or duration. By way of example, "enhancing" the effect of a therapeutic agent refers to the ability to increase or extend the effect of the therapeutic agent during the treatment of a disease, disorder, or illness, either in terms of efficacy or duration. An "enhancing-effective amount", as used herein, refers to an appropriate amount that enhances the effect of a therapeutic agent in the treatment of a disease, disorder, or illness. When used in a patient, the amount effective for such use depends on the severity and course of the disease, disorder, or illness, previous treatment, the patient's health state and response to the medicament, and the judgment of the physician treating the patient.

[0107] The term "prophylactically effective amount", as used herein, refers to the amount of a composition applied to a patient that reduces to some extent one or more of the symptoms of a disease, disorder, or illness being treated. In such prophylactic applications, such amount may depend on the patient's condition, weight, etc. By way of example, such prophylactically effective amount may be determined by a stepwise dose-increasing clinical trial.

In various embodiments, compressed tablets designed to dissolve in the mouth contain one or more flavoring agents. In other embodiments, the compressed tablets contain a film surrounding the final compressed tablet. In some embodiments, the film coating can provide a delayed release of the compound from the formulation. In other embodiments, the film coating (e.g., Opadry® coating, or sugar coating) aids in patient compliance. Film coatings containing Opadry® typically range from about 1% to about 3% of the tablet weight. In other embodiments, the compressed tablets contain one or more excipients.

[0140] The capsule can be prepared, for example, by placing a bulk formulation of Compound 1 inside the capsule. In some embodiments, the formulations (non-aqueous suspensions and solutions) are placed in soft gelatin capsules. In some embodiments, the formulations (non-aqueous suspensions and solutions) are placed in hard shell gelatin capsules. In other embodiments, the formulations are placed in standard gelatin capsules or non-gelatin capsules, such as capsules containing HPMC. In other embodiments, the formulations are placed in sprinkle capsules, where the capsules can be swallowed whole or the contents can be sprinkled on food by opening the capsule before a meal. In some embodiments, the therapeutic dose is divided into a plurality of (e.g., 2, 3, or 4) capsules. In some embodiments, the total dose of the formulation is delivered in capsule form.

In other embodiments, the microencapsulation materials useful for delaying the release of pharmaceutical compositions are from the USP or the National Formulary (NF). In other embodiments, the microencapsulation material is Klucel. In other embodiments, the microencapsulation material is methocel.

[0146] The microencapsulated compound 1 described herein may be formulated by several methods including, for example, spray drying processes, rotary disk solvent processes, thermal solvent processes, spray chilling methods, fluidized beds, electrostatic deposition, centrifugal extrusion, rotary suspension separation, polymerization at liquid - gas or solid - gas interfaces, pressure extrusion, or spray solvent extraction baths. In addition to these, various chemical techniques such as complex coacervation, dissolution evaporation, polymer - polymer incompatibility, interfacial polymerization in liquid media, in - situ polymerization, drying in liquid method, and desolvation in liquid media may also be used. Further, other methods such as roller compaction, extrusion / spheronization, coacervation, or nanoparticle coating may also be used.

[0147] In one embodiment, the particles of Compound 1 are microencapsulated before being formulated into one of the above forms. In another embodiment, some or most of the particles are coated before being further formulated by using standard coating procedures (such as those described in Remington’s Pharmaceutical Sciences, 20th Edition (2000)).

[0148] In other embodiments, the solid dosage formulations of Compound 1 are plasticized (coated) with one or more layers. Exemplarily, the plasticizer is generally a high-boiling solid or liquid. Suitable plasticizers can be added in an amount of about 0.01 wt% to about 50 wt% (w / w) of the coating composition. Plasticizers include, but are not limited to, diethyl phthalate, citrate esters, polyethylene glycol, glycerol, acetylated glycerides, triacetin, polypropylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, triethyl citrate, dibutyl sebacate, stearic acid, stearol, stearate, and castor oil.

[0149] In other embodiments, powders containing formulations having Compound 1 can be formulated to include one or more pharmaceutical excipients and flavoring agents. Such powders can be formulated, for example, by mixing the formulation with an optional pharmaceutical excipient to form a bulk mixture composition. Additional embodiments also include suspending agents and / or wetting agents. This bulk mixture is uniformly subdivided into units of unit-dose packaging or multi-dose packaging.

[0150] In other embodiments, effervescent powders are also prepared according to the present disclosure. Effervescent salts have been used to disperse drugs in water for oral administration. Effervescent salts are granular or coarse powders containing a drug in a dry mixture, usually composed of sodium bicarbonate, citric acid, and / or tartaric acid. When the salts of the compositions described herein are added to water, the acid and base react to liberate carbon dioxide gas, thereby causing "effervescence". Examples of effervescent salts include, for example, the following components: sodium bicarbonate, or a mixture of sodium bicarbonate and sodium carbonate, citric acid, and / or tartaric acid. Any combination of acid and base that results in the liberation of carbon dioxide can be used in place of the combination of sodium bicarbonate, citric acid, and tartaric acid, as long as the components are suitable for pharmaceutical use and result in a pH of about 6.0 or higher.

[0151] In some embodiments, the solid dosage forms described herein can be formulated as enteric-coated delayed-release oral dosage forms, i.e., oral dosage forms of pharmaceutical compositions as described herein that utilize enteric coating to affect release in the small intestine of the gastrointestinal tract. Enteric-coated dosage forms can be compressed, molded, or extruded tablets / molds (coated or uncoated) containing granules, powders, pellets, beads, or microparticles (coated or uncoated themselves) of the active ingredient and / or other composition components. Enteric-coated oral dosage forms can be capsules (coated or uncoated) containing pellets, beads, or granules of a solid carrier, and / or compositions (coated or uncoated themselves).

[0152] As used herein, the term "delayed release" refers to delivery such that release can be achieved at some generally predictable locations in the gastrointestinal tract distal to that which would be achieved in the absence of a change in delayed release. In some embodiments, the means for delaying release is a coating. Any coating should be applied to a sufficient thickness such that the entire coating is insoluble in gastrointestinal fluid at a pH below about 5, but soluble at a pH regarding 5 or above. It is contemplated that any anionic polymer exhibiting pH-dependent solubility characteristics can be used as an enteric coating in the methods and compositions described herein to achieve delivery to the lower gastrointestinal tract. In some embodiments, the polymers described herein are anionic carboxylic acid polymers. In other embodiments, the polymers and their compatible mixtures, and some of their properties include, but are not limited to:

[0153] Shellac (a purified product obtained from the resinous secretion of insects, also called purified lac. This coating dissolves in solvents with pH > 7);

[0154] Acrylic polymers. The performance of acrylic polymers (primarily their solubility in biological fluids) can vary based on the degree and type of substitution. Examples of suitable acrylic polymers include copolymers of methacrylic acid and ammonium methacrylate salts. The Eudragit series E, L, S, RL, RS, and NE (Rohm Pharma) are available as solubilized in organic solvents, aqueous dispersions, or dry powders. The Eudragit series RL, NE, and RS are insoluble but permeable in the gastrointestinal tract and are primarily used for colonic targeting. The Eudragit series E dissolves in the stomach. The Eudragit series L, L-30D, and S are insoluble in the stomach and dissolve in the intestine.

[0155] Cellulose derivatives. Examples of suitable cellulose derivatives are ethyl cellulose and a reaction mixture of a partial acetate ester of cellulose and phthalic anhydride. Their performance can vary depending on the degree and type of substitution. Cellulose acetate phthalate (CAP) dissolves at pH > 6. Aquateric (FMC) is an aqueous system and is a spray-dried pseudo-latex of particles < 1 μm. Other components in Aquateric may include Pluronics, Tweens, and acetylated monoglycerides. Other suitable cellulose derivatives include the following: cellulose acetate trimellitate (Eastman), methyl cellulose (Pharmacoat, Methocel), hydroxypropyl methylcellulose phthalate (HPMCP), hydroxypropyl methylcellulose succinate (HPMCS), and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate (e.g., AQOAT (Shin Etsu)). Performance can vary based on the degree and type of substitution. For example, HPMCP grades such as HP-50, HP-55, HP-55S, or HP-55F are suitable. Performance can vary based on the degree and type of substitution. For example, suitable grades of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate include, but are not limited to, AS-LG (LF) which dissolves at pH 5, AS-MG (MF) which dissolves at pH 5.5, and AS-HG (HF) which dissolves at a higher pH. These polymers, polyvinyl acetate phthalate (PVAP), are provided as granules or as fine powders for aqueous dispersions. PVAP dissolves at pH > 5 and is much less permeable to water vapor and gastric juice.

[0156] In some embodiments, the coating may contain, and typically does contain, a plasticizer, as well as other possible coating excipients such as colorants, talc, and / or magnesium stearate. Suitable plasticizers include triethyl citrate (Citroflex 2), triacetin (glyceryl triacetate), acetyltriethyl citrate (Citroflec A2), Carbowax 400 (polyethylene glycol 400), diethyl phthalate, tributyl citrate, acetylated monoglyceride, glycerol, fatty acid esters, propylene glycol, and dibutyl phthalate. In particular, anionic carboxylic acid acrylic polymers will typically contain 10 - 25 wt% plasticizer, especially dibutyl phthalate, polyethylene glycol, triethyl citrate, and triacetin. Conventional coating techniques such as spraying or pan coating are utilized to apply the coating. The thickness of the coating must be sufficient to ensure that the oral dosage form remains intact until it reaches the desired site of local delivery in the intestinal tract.

[0157] In addition to plasticizers, colorants, detackifiers, surfactants, antifoaming agents, lubricants (e.g., carnauba wax or PEG) can be added to the coating to solubilize or disperse the coating material and to improve coating performance and the coated product.

[0158] In other embodiments, the formulations described herein that include Compound 1 are delivered using a pulsatile dosage form. A pulsatile dosage form can provide one or more immediate release pulses at a predetermined time after a controlled delay time or at a specific site. Other types of controlled release systems may be used. Examples of such delivery systems include, for example, polymer-based systems such as polylactic acid and polyglycolic acid, polyanhydrides and polycaprolactone; non-polymeric systems that are lipids including sterols such as porous matrices, cholesterol, cholesterol esters and fatty acids, or neutral fats such as mono-, di- and triglycerides; hydrogel release systems; silastic systems; peptide-based systems; wax coatings, biodegradable dosage forms, compressed tablets using conventional binders, and the like. For example, Liberman et al., Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms, 2 Ed., Vol. 1, pp. 209-214 (1990); Singh et al., Encyclopedia of Pharmaceutical Technology, 2nd Ed., pp. 751-753 (2002); U.S. Patent Nos. 4,327,725, 4,624,848, 4,968,509, 5,461,140, 5,456,923, 5,516,527, 5,622,721, 5,686,105, 5,700,410, 5,977,175, 6,465,014, and 6,932,983, which are specifically incorporated by reference.

[0159] In some embodiments, a pharmaceutical formulation is provided that includes particles of Compound 1 and at least one dispersing or suspending agent for oral administration to a subject. The formulation may be a powder and / or granules for suspension and, when mixed with water, provides a substantially uniform suspension.

[0160] It should be understood that a given additive is often classified differently by different practitioners in the art, or is commonly used for any of several different functions, such that there is overlap among the additives listed as being used in the aqueous dispersions or suspensions described herein. Thus, the additives listed above should be construed as merely illustrative of the types of additives that may be included in the formulations described herein, and are not limiting. The amount of such additives can be readily determined by one of ordinary skill in the art according to the particular properties desired.

[0163] In a further embodiment, there is provided a method of treating a mammalian disease, disorder, or illness that would benefit from modulation of the S1P receptor, the method comprising administering to the mammal a therapeutically effective amount of the crystalline form of Compound 1 described herein, wherein the disease, disorder, or illness in the mammal is rejection of a transplanted organ or tissue, graft-versus-host disease caused by transplantation, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, an autoimmune syndrome including myasthenia gravis, hay fever, type I diabetes, prevention of psoriasis, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, acute respiratory distress syndrome, adult respiratory distress syndrome, influenza, rheumatic fever, and post-infectious autoimmune diseases including post-infectious glomerulonephritis, and metastasis of cancer.

[0164] Dosage Methods and Treatment Regimens In some embodiments, crystalline Compound 1 is used in the preparation of a medicament for the treatment of a disease or illness that would benefit from modulation of the S1P receptor. Additionally, a method of treating any of the diseases or illnesses described herein in an individual in need thereof comprises administering to the individual a pharmaceutical composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of crystalline Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable solvate thereof.

[0165] In some embodiments, the composition comprising crystalline Compound 1 is administered for prophylactic, therapeutic, or maintenance treatment. In some embodiments, the composition containing Compound 1 is administered for therapeutic use. In some embodiments, the composition containing Compound 1 is administered for prophylactic use.

[0166] For therapeutic use, the composition is administered to a patient suffering from the disease or illness in an amount sufficient to treat or at least partially arrest the symptoms of the disease or illness. The amount effective for this use depends on the severity and course of the disease or illness, previous treatment, the health state, weight, and response of the patient to the drug, as well as the judgment of the treating physician.

[0167] For prophylactic use, a composition containing the compounds described herein is administered to a patient who is susceptible to, or at risk of, a particular disease, disorder, or illness. Such amounts are defined as "prophylactically effective amounts or prophylactic dosages." In this use, the exact amount varies depending on the patient's condition, weight, etc. When used in a patient, the amount effective for this use depends on the severity and course of the disease, disorder, or illness, previous treatment, the patient's health status, and response to the drug, as well as the judgment of the physician administering the treatment.

[0168] In some embodiments, crystalline Compound 1 is administered daily. In some embodiments, crystalline Compound 1 is administered every other day.

[0169] In some embodiments, Compound 1 is administered once a day. In some embodiments, Compound 1 is administered twice a day. In some embodiments, Compound 1 is administered three times a day. In some embodiments, Compound 1 is administered four times a day.

[0170] If the patient's condition does not improve, based on the judgment of the physician, the compound is administered long-term, i.e., over a long period including the lifetime of the patient, to relieve or otherwise control or suppress the symptoms of the patient's disease or illness.

[0171] If the patient's condition improves, a maintenance dosage is administered if necessary. Subsequently, the dosage or dosing frequency, or both, can be reduced to a level that sustains improvement of the disease, disorder, or illness, depending on the symptoms. However, the patient may require intermittent treatment over a long period for any recurrence of symptoms.

[0172] The amount of a given agent corresponding to such amounts will vary depending on factors such as the particular compound, disease or disorder, and its severity, and the characteristics (e.g., weight) of the subject or host in need of treatment, but nevertheless can be determined in a manner recognized in the art according to the particular circumstances surrounding the case, including, for example, the particular agent being administered, the route of administration, the disease being treated, and the subject or host being treated. However, generally, dosages utilized for the treatment of adult humans typically range from about 0.02 to about 5000 mg per day, and in some embodiments from about 1 to about 1500 mg per day. The desired dosage may conveniently be presented as a single dose or as divided doses, administered simultaneously (or over a short period of time) or at appropriate intervals, for example, as sub-doses two, three, or more times per day.

[0173] The pharmaceutical compositions described herein can be in unit dosage forms suitable for single administration of precise dosages. In unit dosage form, the formulation is divided into unit dosages containing appropriate amounts of one or more compounds. The unit dosage may be in the form of a package containing discrete quantities of the formulation. Non-limiting examples are packaged tablets or capsules, and powders in vials or ampoules. An aqueous suspension composition can be packaged in a single-dose, non-resealable container. Alternatively, a resealable container for multiple administrations can be used, in which case it is typical to include a preservative in the composition. As but one example, a formulation for parenteral injection can be provided in unit dosage form (including, but not limited to, ampoules) or in multiple-dose containers, together with an added preservative.

[0174] Suitable daily dosages for the compounds described herein are from about 0.01 mg / kg to about 20 mg / kg. In one embodiment, the daily dosage is from about 0.1 mg / kg to about 10 mg / kg. The daily dosages indicated for larger mammals, not limited to humans, are in the range of about 0.5 mg to 1000 mg, and are conveniently administered in a single dose, or in divided doses including, but not limited to, up to 4 times a day, or in a sustained release form. Unit dosage forms suitable for oral administration contain from about 1 to about 500 mg of the active ingredient. In one embodiment, the unit dosage is about 1 mg, about 5 mg, about 10 mg, about 20 mg, about 50 mg, about 100 mg, about 200 mg, about 250 mg, about 400 mg, or about 500 mg. Because of the great variability in the variables regarding individual treatment regimens, the foregoing ranges are merely suggestive and it is not uncommon for there to be some deviation from these recommended values. Such dosages may be varied depending upon many variables, including, but not limited to, the activity of the compound used, the disease or disorder being treated, the mode of administration, the requirements of the individual subject, the severity of the disease or disorder being treated, and the judgment of the physician.

[0175] The toxicity and therapeutic efficacy of such treatment regimens can be determined by standard pharmaceutical procedures in cell cultures or experimental animals, including, but not limited to, determination of the LD 50 (50% lethal dose for the population) and ED 50 (therapeutically effective dose at 50% of the population). The dose ratio between the toxic and therapeutic effects is the therapeutic index and can be expressed as the ratio between LD 50 and ED 50 . Data obtained from cell culture assays and animal studies can be used to formulate a range of dosages to be used in humans. The dosages of such compounds preferably lie within a range of circulating concentrations that includes the ED 50 with minimal toxicity. The dosage may vary within this range depending upon the dosage form used and the route of administration utilized.

[0176] Kit / Manufactured Product Kits and products for use in the therapeutic methods of use described herein are also described herein.

[0225] [Table 2]

[0226] Example 15: Solid Vapor Diffusion Solid vapor diffusion experiments were conducted using 13 different solvents.

[0227]

Table 3

[0228] Example 16: Liquid Vapor Diffusion Nine liquid vapor diffusion experiments were carried out. Approximately 15 mg of the free base of Compound 1 was dissolved in an appropriate solvent to obtain a clear solution in a 3-mL vial. This solution was then placed into a 20-mL vial together with 3 mL of a volatile solvent. The 20-mL vial was capped and maintained at room temperature for a sufficient time to allow the organic vapor to interact with the solution. The precipitate deposit was separated for XRPD analysis. The solid was tested by XRPD and the results are shown in Table 4.

[0229]

Table 4

[0230] Example 17: Slow Evaporation Slow evaporation experiments were conducted under six conditions. Briefly, 10 - 17 mg of the free base of Compound 1 was dissolved in 2.5 mL of a solvent in a 3-mL glass vial. If dissolution was not achieved, the suspension was filtered using a nylon membrane (pore size 0.45 μm) and the filtrate was used in the subsequent steps. A visually clear solution was covered with Parafilm® having 3 - 4 pinholes and evaporated at room temperature. The results are shown in Table 5.

[0231]

[0232] Example 18: Slow Cooling Slow cooling experiments were carried out in seven solvent systems. Approximately 20 mg of Compound 1 free base was suspended in 0.5 - 1.0 mL of solvent in a 3 - mL glass vial at room temperature. Subsequently, the suspension was heated to 50 °C, maintained at equilibrium for about 5 hours, and filtered using a nylon membrane (pore size 0.45 μm).

[0233]

Table 6

[0234] Example 19: Addition of Anti - solvent A total of 19 anti - solvent addition experiments were conducted.

[0235]

Table 7

[0236] Example 20: Stability Study The physicochemical stability of Form 1 was evaluated by storing the samples at 80 °C for 1 day, at 25 °C / 60% RH for 1 week, and at 40 °C / 75% RH for 1 month. The stability samples were characterized by XRPD and HPLC. Substantial changes in HPLC purity were not observed under all the tested conditions, indicating good chemical stability. Furthermore, no morphological changes were observed for Form 1 after storage, as evidenced by the XRPD pattern.

[0237] The stability of Form 2 was also evaluated at room temperature in slurries in acetone and methanol / water. Solids were isolated at 1 hour, 3 hours, 5 hours, and 29 hours. XRPD analysis showed the formation of Form 1 within 1 hour in both solvents.

[0238] Example 21: Relationship of the Thermodynamic Stability of the Anhydrate (Forms 1, 5, and 6) Starting from Form 5, an exothermic signal was observed during heating, and Form 6 was formed at high temperature. According to the Burger-Ramberger rule, Form 6 is monotropically related to Form 5 and is thermodynamically more stable.

[0239] As a result, slurry competition between Form 6 and Form 1 in acetone and THF systems was carried out at 5 °C, room temperature, and 50 °C. After stirring for 5 days at the desired temperature, the solids were separated and analyzed by XRPD. As shown in Table 8, only Form 1 was obtained, indicating that Form 1 is the thermodynamically stable form at 5 - 50 °C.

[0240]

Table 8

[0241] Example 22: Critical Water Activity Study between Form 1 and Form 7 The critical water activity between the anhydrous Form 1 and the hydrated Form 7 was investigated at room temperature via slurries in MeOH / H2O systems with various water activities. After stirring overnight, the solids were isolated and analyzed by XRPD. As shown in Table 9, Form 7 was converted to Form 1 under all water activities at RT, indicating that Form 1 is more stable under the selected conditions.

[0242]

Table 9

[0243] Example 23: Solubility Evaluation of Forms 1 and 2 The solubility of Form 1 and Form 2 was evaluated in the same vehicle. Form 1 or Form 2 was added to DCM / MeOH and stirred at room temperature or 50 °C until dissolved. Then, once a clear solution was obtained, a certain amount of HPMC-AS was added to the solution at room temperature. The details and results of the experiment are shown in Table 10. Form 2 dissolved in DCM / MeOH at a concentration of 13 mg / mL, while Form 1 dissolved at a lower concentration of 10 mg / mL. Therefore, in this vehicle, Form 2 showed better solubility than Form 1 and is thus the preferred crystalline form for the formulation in this vehicle.

[0248] Example 25: Single crystal X-ray diffraction, Compound 1, Form 2 Compound 1, Form 2 has the formula C 21 H 13 Cl3F3N5O3·C2H4O2 and crystallizes as a monoclinic crystal in the P21 space group. There are two molecules of Compound 1 and two molecules of acetic acid in each asymmetric unit, and the unit cell contains two asymmetric units. As shown in Figure 18, the chiral carbons exhibit an "R" (C17, C38) configuration within the asymmetric unit. Proton transfer does not occur between Compound 1 and acetic acid, and thus it is a solvate of acetic acid. Further crystallographic data and refinement parameters are listed in Table 12. XRPD analysis of the single crystal structure indicated Form 2.
