[Technical Field]
[0001] Related Applications This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 413,850, filed October 6, 2022, the entire teachings of which are incorporated herein by reference.
[0002] The present invention relates to novel crystalline polymorphic forms of Compound I, methods for their preparation, pharmaceutical compositions comprising said polymorphic forms, methods of using said polymorphic forms for preparing pharmaceutical compositions, and methods of using said polymorphic forms for treating or preventing coronavirus infections. [Background technology]
[0003] Coronaviruses are enveloped, positive-sense, single-stranded RNA viruses. The genomic RNA of CoVs contains a 5' cap structure and a 3' poly(A) tail and at least six open reading frames (ORFs). The first ORF (ORF 1a / b) directly translates two polyproteins: pp1a and pp1ab. These polyproteins are then processed into 16 nonstructural proteins by a 3C-like protease (3CL), also known as the main protease (Mpro). These nonstructural proteins are involved in the production of subgenomic RNAs that encode four structural proteins: envelope, membrane, spike, and nucleocapsid proteins, as well as accessory proteins. Consequently, it is understood that 3C-like proteases play a critical role in the coronavirus life cycle.
[0004] 3CLpro is a cysteine protease responsible for most cleavage events within the precursor polyprotein. Active 3CLpro is a homodimer containing two protomers and characterized by a Cys-His dyad located between domains I and II. 3CLpro is conserved among coronaviruses, and several common features are shared among 3CLpro substrates in various coronaviruses. Because there is no human homolog of 3CLpro, 3CLpro is an ideal antiviral target. Although several compounds have been reported to inhibit 3CLpro activity, none have been approved as coronavirus therapies.

[0012] Compound I is a potent 3CL protease inhibitor and is described in patent application WO 2022 / 109363, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. Compound I is a single enantiomer with three chiral centers. The methods for preparing Compound I disclosed in WO 2022 / 109363 yield amorphous forms of Compound I, which are disclosed herein. Table 1 outlines the procedures for producing four polymorphs (Forms 1, 2, 3, and 4), a mixture of Forms 2 and 4, and ten pseudopolymorphic forms (Forms A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, H1, and J). [Table 1]
[0013] Proton Nuclear Magnetic Resources ( 1 All polymorphs and pseudopolymorphs were proven to be identical in solution, as evidenced by H NMR. Solid-state techniques such as differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) revealed differences between the forms. The current synthetic process produces the drug substance as an anhydrous, nonsolvated, amorphous solid that is stable under the storage conditions described in this application.
[0014] In one embodiment, the present invention provides four polymorphic forms (Forms 1, 2, 3, 4), a mixture of Forms 2 and 4, and ten pseudopolymorphs (Forms A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, H1, J) characterized by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The DSC thermal properties of these polymorphic and pseudopolymorphic forms are set forth in Figures 4, 8, 10, 14, 16, 18, 21, 24, 27, 29, 33, and Tables 2 and 3. [Table 2] [Table 3]
[0015] In one embodiment, the present invention provides four polymorphs (Forms 1, 2, 3, and 4), a mixture of Forms 2 and 4, and ten pseudopolymorphs (Forms A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, H1, and J), which are further characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD). Characteristic powder diffraction peaks are expressed in degrees 2θ. The peak positions (2θ) for all forms are different from each other. The positions of the intense peaks of the polymorphic and pseudopolymorphic forms are shown in Tables 4 and 5. The relative intensities and positions of the intense peaks in Figures 3, 7, 9, 12, 13, 15, 17, 19, 20, 23, 25, 26, 28, 30, and 32 may change or shift under certain conditions, but the crystalline form remains the same. One skilled in the art can readily determine whether a given polymorphic form is the same polymorphic form as that depicted in one of Figures 3, 7, 9, 12, 13, 15, 17, 19, 20, 23, 25, 26, 28, 30, 32, Table 4 or Table 5 by comparing their peak positions and intensities in the XRPD data.
[0016] The powder X-ray diffraction data of the crystalline polymorphic and pseudopolymorphic forms and mixtures were found to be different from each other. [Table 4-1] [Table 4-2] [Table 4-3] [Table 4-4] [Table 4-5] [Table 5-1]

[0071] The Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrum of Form J is shown in Figure 34. The FT-IR spectrum shows characteristic wavenumbers (cm) at 564, 598, 620, 648, 676, 706, 737, 749, 813, 910, 968, 1005, 1019, 1065, 1089, 1120, 1133, 1156, 1209, 1249, 1267, 1306, 1326, 1353, 1377, 1394, 1426, 1439, 1471, 1484, 1522, 1546, 1598, 1657, 1723, 2870, 2957, 3196, and 3335. -1 ) has a characteristic peak.
[0072] In one embodiment, the present invention provides a method for preparing Form J of Compound I, the method comprising: i. preparing a solution of Compound I in about 2.3X by volume (X=weight of Compound I) tetrahydrofuran, preferably at about 10°C to 40°C, more preferably at about 22°C to 25°C; ii. preferably adding about 0.001X to about 0.1X of Form J of Compound I as a seed and about 3X by volume of heptane to provide a suspension of Compound Form J; and iii. filtering the suspension to provide Form J of Compound I. Includes.
[0073] In another aspect, the present invention features a substantially pure crystalline (polymorphic or pseudopolymorphic) form of Compound I having characteristic peaks in an X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) pattern as shown in Figures 3, 7, 9, 12, 13, 15, 17, 19, 20, 23, 25, 26, 28, 30, and 32. As used herein, the term "substantially pure," when used with respect to a given crystalline form, refers to a crystalline form that is at least about 90% pure. This means that the crystalline form contains no more than about 10% of any other form of Compound I. Preferably, the term "substantially pure" refers to a crystalline form of Compound I that is at least about 95% pure. This means that the crystalline form of Compound I contains no more than about 5% of any other form of Compound I. More preferably, the term "substantially pure" refers to a crystalline form of Compound I that is at least about 97% pure. This means that the crystalline form of Compound I contains no more than about 3% of any other form of Compound I.
[0074] Each polymorph and pseudopolymorph disclosed herein 1 The 1 H NMR spectrum is largely consistent with compound I.
[0075] The instruments and associated methods used to characterize the polymorphs and pseudopolymorphs of Compound I are listed in Table 11. The results of these studies are shown in Figures 1-34. As is known in the art, the relative intensities of the peaks in Figures 1-34 may change or shift under certain conditions, but the polymorphs and pseudopolymorphs are the same. One of ordinary skill in the art can readily determine whether a given polymorphic form or pseudopolymorphic form is the same polymorphic form or pseudopolymorphic form described herein by comparing its XRPD pattern with Figures 3, 7, 9, 12, 13, 15, 17, 19, 20, 23, 25, 26, 28, 30, and 32, its DSC thermogram with Figures 4, 8, 10, 14, 16, 18, 21, 24, 27, 29, and 33 for DSC, and its FTIR spectrum with Figures 5, 11, 22, 31, and 34.

[0090] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein are consistent with the meaning commonly known to those skilled in the art. All references cited herein, whether in print, electronic, computer-readable storage media, or other form, are expressly incorporated by reference in their entirety, including, but not limited to, abstracts, articles, magazines, publications, texts, papers, Internet websites, databases, patents, and patent publications.
[0091] Pharmaceutical Compositions The pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention comprise a therapeutically effective amount of a polymorph or pseudopolymorph of Compound I of the present invention, or a combination of two or more such polymorphs or pseudopolymorphs of Compound I, formulated together with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or excipients.
[0092] As used herein, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or excipient" means a non-toxic, inert solid, semi-solid, or liquid filler, diluent, encapsulating material, or formulation auxiliary of any type. Some examples of materials which may serve as pharmaceutically acceptable carriers are sugars such as lactose, glucose, and sucrose; starches such as corn starch and potato starch; cellulose and its derivatives, such as sodium carboxymethylcellulose, ethyl cellulose, and cellulose acetate; powdered tragacanth; malt; gelatin; talc; excipients such as cocoa butter and suppository wax; oils such as peanut oil, cottonseed oil, safflower oil, sesame oil, olive oil, corn oil, and soybean oil; glycols such as propylene glycol; esters such as ethyl oleate and ethyl laurate; agar; buffers such as magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide; alginic acid; pyrogen-free water; isotonic saline; Ringer's solution; ethyl alcohol; phosphate buffer, and other non-toxic compatible lubricants, such as sodium lauryl sulfate and magnesium stearate, as well as coloring agents, releasing agents, coating agents, sweetening agents, flavorings and perfuming agents, preservatives, and antioxidants can also be present in the composition, according to the judgment of the formulator.
[0093] The pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention can be administered orally, parenterally, by inhalation spray, topically, rectally, nasally, buccally, vaginally, or via an implanted reservoir, preferably by oral administration or injection.The pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention can contain any conventional non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, adjuvant, or vehicle.In some cases, the pH of the formulation can be adjusted with pharmaceutically acceptable acids, bases, or buffers to enhance the stability of the formulated compound or its delivery form.The term parenteral as used herein includes subcutaneous, intradermal, intravenous, intramuscular, intraarticular, intraarterial, intrasynovial, intrasternal, intrathecal, intralesional, and intracranial injection or infusion techniques.
[0094] Liquid dosage forms for oral administration include pharmaceutically acceptable emulsions, microemulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups and elixirs.In addition to active compounds, liquid dosage forms can contain inert diluents commonly used in the art, such as water or other solvents, solubilizers and emulsifiers, 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 fatty acid esters of sorbitan, and mixtures thereof.In addition to inert diluents, oral compositions can also contain auxiliary agents such as wetting agents, emulsifiers and suspending agents, sweeteners, flavorings and fragrances.
[0095] Injectable preparations, for example, sterile injectable aqueous or oily suspensions, can be formulated according to known techniques using suitable dispersants 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 solutions 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 monoglycerides or diglycerides. In addition, fatty acids such as oleic acid are used in the preparation of injectables.
[0096] 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 before use.
[0097] To prolong the effect of a drug, it is often desirable to slow the absorption of the drug 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 a drug depends on its dissolution rate, which in turn may depend on crystal size and crystalline form. Alternatively, delayed absorption of a parenterally administered drug form can be achieved by dissolving or suspending the drug in an oil vehicle. Injectable depot forms are made by forming microencapsule matrices of the drug in biodegradable polymers such as polylactide-polyglycolide. The drug release rate can be controlled depending on the ratio of drug to polymer and the nature of the particular polymer used. Examples of other biodegradable polymers include poly(orthoesters) and poly(anhydrides). Depot injectable formulations have also been prepared by entrapping the drug in liposomes or microemulsions that are compatible with body tissues.
[0098] Compositions for rectal or vaginal administration are preferably suppositories, which may be prepared by mixing a compound of the invention 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 rectum or vaginal cavity to release the active compound.
[0099] The solid dosage form for oral administration includes capsules, tablets, pills, powders and granules.In such solid dosage form, active compound is mixed with at least one inert pharmaceutically acceptable excipient or carrier, such as sodium citrate or dicalcium phosphate, and / or a) filler or extender, such as starch, lactose, sucrose, glucose, mannitol and silicic acid, b) binder, such as carboxymethylcellulose, alginate, gelatin, polyvinylpyrrolidinone, sucrose and acacia, c) humectant, such as glycerol, d) disintegrant, such as agar, calcium carbonate, potato or tapioca starch, alginic acid, certain silicates and sodium carbonate, e) solution retardant. In the case of capsules, tablets, and pills, the dosage form may also contain buffering agents.
[0100] Solid compositions of a similar type may also be employed as fillers in soft and hard-filled gelatin capsules using such excipients as lactose or milk sugar as well as high molecular weight polyethylene glycols and the like.
[0101] Solid dosage forms such as tablets, dragees, capsules, pills, and granules can be prepared with coatings and shells, such as enteric coatings and other coatings well known in the pharmaceutical formulation field.They may optionally contain opacifying agents and can also be of a composition that releases the active ingredient 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.
[0102] The dosage forms for topical or transdermal administration of the compound of the present invention include ointments, pastes, creams, lotions, gels, powders, solutions, sprays, inhalants or patches.The active ingredient is mixed under sterile conditions with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and, if necessary, with any necessary preservatives or buffers.Ophthalmic preparations, ear drops, eye ointments, powders and solutions are also considered to be within the scope of the present invention.
[0103] The ointments, pastes, creams and gels may contain, in addition to the active compounds of this invention, excipients such as animal and vegetable fats, oils, waxes, paraffin, starch, tragacanth, cellulose derivatives, polyethylene glycols, silicones, bentonite, silicic acid, talc and zinc oxide, or mixtures thereof.
[0104] Powders and sprays can contain, in addition to the compounds of this invention, excipients such as lactose, talc, silicic acid, aluminum hydroxide, calcium silicates and polyamide powder, or mixtures of these substances. Sprays can additionally contain conventional propellants such as chlorofluorohydrocarbons.
[0105] Transdermal patch has the additional advantage of providing controlled delivery of compound to the body.Such dosage forms can be prepared by dissolving or dispensing compound in suitable medium.Absorption enhancers can also be used to increase the flux of compound across the skin.The rate can be controlled by providing a rate-controlling membrane or by dispersing compound in a polymer matrix or gel.
[0106] For pulmonary delivery, the therapeutic compositions of the present invention are formulated and administered to patients / animals in solid or liquid particulate form by direct administration, for example, inhalation into the respiratory system.The solid or liquid particulate form of the active compound prepared for carrying out the present invention includes particles of respirable size, i.e., particles small enough to pass through the mouth and larynx upon inhalation and enter the bronchi and alveoli of the lungs.The delivery of aerosolized therapeutic agents, particularly aerosolized antibiotics, is known in the art (see, for example, U.S. Patent No. 5,767,068 to Van Devanter et al., U.S. Patent No. 5,508,269 to Smith et al., and International Publication No. WO 98 / 43650 to Montgomery, all of which are incorporated herein by reference).
[0107] Antiviral activity The present invention provides a treatment for preventing a viral infection in a subject in need thereof, comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a polymorph or pseudopolymorph of Compound I described herein, or a combination of two or more thereof. The viral infection is preferably a coronavirus infection. In certain embodiments, the coronavirus is SARS-CoV-1, SARS-CoV-2, or MERS-CoV. Preferably, the coronavirus is SARS-CoV-2.
[0108] A viral suppressive amount or dose of Compound I of the present invention can range from about 0.01 mg / kg to about 500 mg / kg, or from about 1 to about 50 mg / kg. The suppressive amount or dose will also vary depending on the route of administration and the possibility of co-administration with other drugs.
[0109] According to the treatment methods of the present invention, viral infections are treated or prevented in a patient / subject, such as a human or another animal, by administering to the patient / subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of the present invention in an amount and for a time necessary to achieve the desired result.
[0110] A "therapeutically effective amount" of a compound of the present invention refers to that amount of compound that confers a therapeutic effect on the treated subject at a reasonable benefit / risk ratio applicable to any medical treatment. The therapeutic effect can be objective (i.e., measurable by some test or marker) or subjective (i.e., the subject shows an indication of or feels an effect). A therapeutically effective amount of the compound described above can range, for example, from about 0.1 mg / kg to about 500 mg / kg, preferably from about 1 to about 50 mg / kg. The effective dose will also vary depending on the route of administration and the possibility of coadministration with other drugs. It will be understood, however, that the total daily dose of the compounds and compositions of the present invention will be determined by the attending physician within the scope of sound medical judgment. The specific therapeutically effective dose level for any particular patient will depend on a variety of factors, including the disorder being treated and the severity of the disorder, the activity of the particular compound used, the particular composition used, the age, weight, general health, sex and diet of the patient, the time of administration, route of administration and rate of excretion of the particular compound used, the duration of treatment, drugs used in combination or concomitantly with the particular compound used, and similar factors well known in the medical arts.
[0111] The total daily dose of the compounds of this invention administered to a human or other animal in single or divided doses can be, for example, 0.01 to 50 mg / kg body weight or more, usually 0.1 to 25 mg / kg body weight. Single dose compositions may contain such amounts, or fractions thereof, to make up the daily dose. In general, treatment regimens according to the present invention comprise administering to a patient in need of such treatment from about 10 mg to about 1000 mg of the compounds of this invention per day, in single or multiple doses.
[0112] The compounds of the present invention described herein can be administered, for example, by intravenous, intraarterial, subdermal, intraperitoneal, intramuscular, or subcutaneous injection, or orally, buccally, nasally, transmucosally, topically, in ophthalmic preparations, or by inhalation, at doses ranging from about 0.1 to about 500 mg / kg body weight, or at doses of 1 mg to 1000 mg / dose, every 4 to 120 hours, or according to the requirements of the particular drug. The methods herein contemplate administering an effective amount of a compound or compound composition to achieve the desired or described effect. Typically, pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention are administered about 1 to about 6 times per day, or alternatively as a continuous infusion. Such administration can be used for chronic or acute treatment. The amount of active ingredient that can be combined with pharmaceutical excipients or carriers to produce a single dosage form will vary depending on the host treated and the particular mode of administration. Typical preparations contain about 5% to about 95% active compound (w / w). Alternatively, such preparations may contain from about 20% to about 80% active compound. Lower or higher doses than those recited above may be required. The specific dosage and treatment regimen for any particular patient / animal will depend on a variety of factors, including the activity of the specific compound used, the patient's age, body weight, general health, sex, diet, time of administration, rate of excretion, drug combination, the severity and course of the disease, condition, or symptom, the patient's predisposition to the disease, condition, or symptom, and the judgment of the treating physician.
[0113] Once the patient's / animal's condition improves, a maintenance dose of the compound, composition or combination of the present invention can be administered as needed.Then, the dosage or frequency of administration, or both, can be reduced as a function of symptoms, to a level at which the improved condition is maintained when the symptoms are alleviated to a desired level.However, the patient / animal may require intermittent treatment on a long-term basis in response to any recurrence of disease symptoms.
[0114] Combination and Alternative Therapies The compounds of the present invention may be used in combination with one or more antiviral or anti-inflammatory therapeutic agents useful in the prevention or treatment of viral diseases or associated pathophysiology. Thus, the compounds of the present invention and their salts, solvates, or other pharmaceutically acceptable derivatives may be used alone or in combination with other antiviral or anti-inflammatory therapeutic agents.The compounds herein and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof may be used in combination with one or more other agents that may be useful in the prevention or treatment of respiratory diseases, inflammatory diseases, autoimmune diseases, such as antihistamines, corticosteroids (e.g., fluticasone propionate, fluticasone furoate, beclomethasone dipropionate, budesonide, ciclesonide, mometasone furoate, triamcinolone, flunisolide), NSAIDs, leukotriene modulators (e.g., montelukast, zafirlukast, pranlukast), tryptophan, benzodiazepines (e.g., benzodiazepines), and the like. and / or steroids such as steroid hormone receptor antagonists, IKK2 inhibitors, p38 inhibitors, Syk inhibitors, protease inhibitors such as elastase inhibitors, integrin antagonists (e.g. beta-2 integrin antagonists), adenosine A2a agonists, mediator release inhibitors such as sodium cromoglycate, 5-lipoxygenase inhibitors (zyflo), DP1 antagonists, DP2 antagonists, PI3K delta inhibitors, ITK inhibitors, LP (lysophosphatidic acid) inhibitors or FLAP (5-lipoxygenase activating protein) inhibitors (e.g. naphthostat thorium 3-(3-(tert-butylthio)-1-(4-(6-ethoxypyridin-3-yl)benzyl)-5-((5-ethylpyridin-2-yl)methoxy)-1H-indol-2-yl)-2,2-dimethylpropanoate), bronchodilators (e.g., muscarinic antagonists, beta-2 agonists), methotrexate, and similar agents, monoclonal antibody therapy, e.g., anti-lgE, anti-TNF, anti-IL-5, anti-IL-6, anti-IL-12, anti-IL-1, and similar agents, cytokine receptor therapy, e.g., Etanercept and similar agents may be used in combination with appropriate anti-infective agents, including antigen-nonspecific immunotherapy (e.g., interferons or other cytokines / chemokines, chemokine receptor modulators such as CCR3, CCR4 or CXCR2 antagonists, other cytokine / chemokine agonists or antagonists, TLR agonists and similar agents), antibiotics, including those listed at https: / / www.drugs.com / drug-class / anti-infectives.html, antifungals, anthemintic agents, antimalarials, antiprotozoans, antituberculous agents, and antivirals.In general, combination therapy is typically preferred over alternation therapy because it induces multiple simultaneous stresses on the virus.

Various changes and modifications to the disclosed embodiments will be apparent to those skilled in the art, and such changes and modifications, including but not limited to with respect to the chemical structures, substituents, derivatives, formulations and / or methods of the invention, may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention and the scope of the appended claims.
[0119] Example 1: Preparation of Form 1 of Compound I Procedure 1A: Ethyl acetate (700 mL, 10 V (volume), 1 volume means 1 g of solid in 1 mL of solvent) was added to a reactor (R1), followed by the compound (3R,5'S)-1'-(N-methyl-N-(4,6,7-trifluoro-1H-indole-2-carbonyl)-L-leucyl)-2-oxospiro[indoline-3,3'-pyrrolidine]-5'-carboxamide (70 g). The reaction mixture was cooled to 0°C (-5 to +5°C), and then triethylamine (89.6 g) was added, followed by trifluoroacetic anhydride (92.4 g) at 0°C (-5 to +5°C). The reaction mixture was stirred at 0°C (-5 to +5°C) for 1 hour (0.5 to 2 hours). Upon completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was slowly added to 0.2 N aqueous HCl (700 g) over 1 h at 0 °C (-5 to 5 °C).
