Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 384,478, filed November 21, 2022, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.

[0002] FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present disclosure relates to polymorphic forms of 5-[(2,4-dinitrophenoxy)methyl]-1-methyl-2-nitro-1H-imidazole for treating mitochondrial-related disorders or conditions. [Background technology]

[0003] background The present disclosure provides polymorphic forms of 5-[(2,4-dinitrophenoxy)methyl]-1-methyl-2-nitro-1H-imidazole for treating a subject suffering from a mitochondrial-related disorder or condition, such as obesity, diabetes, or a metabolic disorder, including diabetes-related complications.

[0004] Mitochondria control metabolism in individual cells by burning sugars and fats. Mitochondrial uncoupling is a powerful, natural process the body uses to generate heat. Heat is generated by mitochondria through uncoupling of respiration (complexes I-IV) from ATP phosphorylation (complex V). In fact, 20-40% of calories consumed are used to generate body heat. Mitochondrial-related disorders or conditions occur when mitochondria cannot produce enough energy for the body to function properly and can affect nearly every part of the body, including cells of the brain, adipose tissue, nerves, muscles, heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, pancreas, eyes, and ears.

[0005] 5-[(2,4-dinitrophenoxy)methyl]-1-methyl-2-nitro-1H-imidazole is a novel small molecule uncoupler. This uncoupler acts as a controlled metabolic enhancer (CMA). It is designed to effectively address the accumulation of fat and sugar in the body, which is the underlying cause of metabolic disease. CMA improves cellular metabolism, increases energy expenditure and calorie expenditure, and reduces fat accumulation. Using a novel, controlled targeting approach, 5-[(2,4-dinitrophenoxy)methyl]-1-methyl-2-nitro-1H-imidazole can increase mitochondrial proton leak, a continuous process in the body that dissipates energy and accounts for 20% to 40% of daily calorie intake. 5-[(2,4-dinitrophenoxy)methyl]-1-methyl-2-nitro-1H-imidazole utilizes the mitochondrial uncoupling mechanism to increase substrate utilization.

[0006] A primary concern in the manufacture of pharmaceutical compounds is the stability of the active substance. An active substance with stable crystalline morphology can provide consistent processing parameters and pharmaceutical quality. An unstable active substance can affect the reproducibility of the manufacturing process and therefore lead to a final formulation that does not meet the high quality and other strict requirements imposed on the formulation of pharmaceutical compositions.

[0007] Therefore, there is a continuing need for polymorphic forms of 5-[(2,4-dinitrophenoxy)methyl]-1-methyl-2-nitro-1H-imidazole and manufacturing processes for preparing same. Summary of the Invention [Means for solving the problem]

[0298] Example 1 Polymorph Screening

[0299] The goal of polymorph studies is to identify potential polymorphs and select the most suitable one in terms of stability, hygroscopicity, and feasibility for downstream development. The free base compound (I) is poorly soluble. The crystalline form can be enhanced in solubility by the addition of various solubilizing agents.

[0300] The solubility of compound (I) is comparable between pH 1 and 6.5, i.e., its solubility is pH independent. The results suggest that compound (I) is unlikely to ionize, and it was hypothesized that successful salt formation was unlikely.

[0301] However, precipitation of Compound (I) from EtOH solution with HBr and H2SO4 and HCl in acetone yields polymorphs not previously observed in the free base. Two distinct polymorphic forms, Form A and Form B, have been identified. Multiple isoforms have also been identified.

[0302] Form A is an anhydrous form. Form A can be obtained from most solvent systems by equilibration, slow evaporation, slow cooling, and addition of an antisolvent. Form A is highly crystalline. The DSC profile (Figure 3) shows a T of 156.9 °C. onset Figure 3 shows one endothermic peak at 182.9 °C with an enthalpy of 9 J / g, corresponding to the solid-solid transition from Form A to Form B. onset The melting peak at 0.25 and the enthalpy at 183.9°C. Decomposition occurs upon melting. TGA (Figure 4) shows a weight loss of about 0.7% at about 175°C. 1 H-NMR (Figure 5) shows that there was no detectable residual solvent. Form A is a thermodynamically stable anhydrate at or below 35°C.

[0303] Form B is an anhydrous form. Form B was obtained by heating Form A to 165°C or by slow evaporation in 1,4-dioxane. Form B is highly crystalline. DSC (Figure 6) shows a melting peak at Tonset of 182.3°C. Decomposition occurs upon melting. TGA (Figure 7) shows a weight loss of about 0.6% at about 175°C. 1 H-NMR (Figure 8) shows that there was no detectable residual solvent. Form B becomes the thermodynamically stable form A at 50°C or higher.

[0304] Based on the competitive equilibrium results, Forms A and B are enantiotropically related. At 35°C or below, Form A is the only or predominant polymorph in the sample, making it the thermodynamically stable Form A at 35°C or below. At 50°C, Form B is the only or predominant polymorph in the sample, making it the thermodynamically stable form at 50°C or above. At 40°C, Form A was obtained as the major product from acetone or THF, while Form B was obtained as the major product from the acetonitrile / water (v:v=85:15) system, suggesting a phase transition temperature near 40°C. Slight thermodynamic perturbations at this temperature may lead to different equilibrium outcomes.

[0305] Based on the competitive equilibrium results, the thermodynamically stable anhydrate at ambient temperature (20-25°C) is Form A.

[0306] The bulk stability of Compound (I) Forms A and B was evaluated for 1 and 2 weeks at 25° C. / 92% RH in an open container, 40° C. / 75% RH in an open container, and 60° C. in a closed container. Compound (I) Forms A and B are physically and chemically stable under these conditions.

[0307] The hygroscopicity of both Form A and Form B of Compound (I) was evaluated at 25°C by dynamic water vapor sorption (DVS) testing. Form A of Compound (I) is non-hygroscopic. Form A absorbs approximately 0.1% water at 25°C from 40% RH to 95% RH. After the DVS testing, the obtained sample was still Form A. Form B of Compound (I) is non-hygroscopic. Form B absorbs approximately 0.1% water at 25°C from 40% RH to 95% RH. After the DVS testing, the obtained sample was still Form B.

[0308] Form A is primarily formed and is stable at room temperature. Form B is more stable at temperatures above (approximately) 37°C. By heating the slurry, Form B accumulates over time. By heating the slurry, more residual dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB) can be removed and the desired purity achieved.

[0309] Impurity removal is likely to be more effective in heated solvents, so producing Form B at higher temperatures will remove more of the remaining impurities.

[0310] Based on the results of DSC analysis and competitive equilibrium experiments, Forms A and B are enantiotropically related. Form A is the thermodynamically stable form at or below 35°C, while Form B is the thermodynamically stable form at or above 50°C. Both Forms A and B exhibit good chemical and physical stability and are non-hygroscopic at 25°C. Although Forms A and B exhibit good chemical and physical stability after a two-week bulk stability study, this result only describes the short-term kinetic stability of the two interconvertible polymorphs as bare drug substances. As revealed by competitive equilibrium experiments, given accelerated kinetic conditions and sufficient time, the two polymorphs will convert to each other as a function of temperature.

[0311] [Table 7]

[0312] Example 2 solubility studies

[0313] Approximately 5 mg of Form A was weighed into a 2 mL glass vial. A 20 μL aliquot of each solvent was added to dissolve the drug substance at 25°C. Approximately 10 mg of Form A was weighed into a 2 mL glass vial. A 20 μL aliquot of each solvent was added to dissolve the drug substance at 50°C. Sonication was applied to aid dissolution. The maximum volume of each solvent added was 1 mL. Approximate solubility was determined by visual observation.

[0314] [Table 8]

[0315] The solubility of the crystalline forms was further collected. The results showed poor solubility at 25°C and 50°C in all selected solvents except DMSO. Form A was used as the starting material in all the following studies. The results are listed in Table 9.

[0316] [Table 9]

[0317] The starting and final materials were verified by XRPD. All XRPD profiles at 25° C. and 50° C. were the same. Final material refers to the compound after recrystallization.

[0318] Several slurry experiments were performed with the crystalline forms in various solvent systems. Results showed that Form A+B converted to Form B at 50-60°C in acetone and MEK systems. Form B was stable after slurrying in various solvents at various temperatures. Solubility by HPLC is listed in Tables 10 and 11.

[0319] [Table 10]

[0320] [Table 11]

[0321] Example 3 Water sorption and desorption experiments on polymorphic form B

[0322] The water sorption and desorption behavior of Forms A and B was investigated by DVS at 25° C. in a cycle of 40-95-0-95-40% relative humidity (RH) with an equilibration time of 240 min per step. XRPD was measured after the DVS test to determine the form change.

[0323] [Table 12]

[0324] [Table 13]

[0325] Example 4 Crystallization by slow evaporation at room temperature

[0326] 20 mg of Compound (I) free form was dissolved in 0.2-1 mL of solvent. The resulting solution was filtered through a 0.45 μm nylon membrane filter by centrifugation at 14,000 rpm. The resulting clear solution was allowed to slowly evaporate under ambient conditions (approximately 20-25°C, 40-60% RH). The solid residue was examined by XRPD as shown in Table 14. Figure 10 shows the XRPD pattern of Form A obtained by this method. Figure 11 shows the XRPD patterns of Forms A and B obtained by this method.

[0327] [Table 14]

[0328] Example 5 Crystallization by slow cooling from heated saturated solutions

[0329] 40 mg of Compound (I) free form was dissolved in a minimum amount of selected solvent at 50°C. The resulting solution was filtered by centrifugation at 14,000 rpm through a 0.45 μm nylon membrane filter. The resulting clear solution was cooled to 5°C at 0.1°C / min. The precipitate was collected by centrifugal filtration at 14,000 rpm through a 0.45 μm nylon membrane filter. The solid portion (wet cake) was examined by XRPD. Figure 12 shows XRPD patterns (SC1-SC3) of Form A obtained by this method. Figure 13 shows XRPD patterns (SC4-SC6) of Form A obtained by this method.

[0330] [Table 15]

[0331] Example 6 Crystallization by addition of antisolvent

[0332] 30 mg of Compound (I) free form was dissolved in a minimum amount of a selected good solvent at ambient temperature (approximately 20-25°C). 1 to 4 volumes of a poor solvent were slowly added to the resulting clear solution until a large amount of solid precipitated. The precipitate was collected by centrifugal filtration at 14,000 rpm through a 0.45 μm nylon membrane filter. The solid portion (wet cake) was examined by XRPD. Figure 14 shows the XRPD pattern of Form A obtained by this method.

[0333] [Table 16]

[0334] Example 7 Preparation of Form B of Compound (I)

[0335] The DMF solution of Compound (I) is charged to a reactor, polish-filtered, and stored in a clean container to obtain clarified Compound (I). Half of the clarified Compound (I) in DMF solution to be treated is charged to a reactor. Water is then added to the clarified filtrate to precipitate the crude Compound (I) product, which is stirred and isolated by filtration. This procedure is repeated for the remaining half of the clarified Compound (I). The combined crude wet cake is washed with ethanol. The crude wet cake is partially dried in the filter, added back to the reactor, reslurried in water at 35-45°C, cooled, and stirred at room temperature. The crude Compound (I) is filtered, washed with ethanol, and partially dried in the filter. The crude Compound (I) is suspended in ethanol and heated at 60-70°C for 2-3 hours, then cooled to room temperature, filtered, washed with ethanol, and partially dried. The resulting solid is dried under vacuum overnight and then recrystallized by heating in acetonitrile at 60-70°C for 16-20 hours and slowly cooling to room temperature. The resulting crystalline Form B is filtered, washed with ethanol, and dried until a constant weight is achieved. The dried crystalline Form B is then sieved through a 40-mesh sieve before packaging. 1 H NMR (DMSO-d6): δ 8.792 (d, J=2.5 Hz,1H), 8.572 (dd, J=9.5, 2.5Hz, 1H); 7.832 (D, J=9.5 Hz, 1H, 7.399 (s, 1H), 5.66.3 (s, 2H), 3.957 (s, 3H).

[0336] Example 7.1 Preparation of Form B of Compound (I)

[0337] Compound (I) Form A was dissolved in a heated ACN:DMSO mixture in a glass-lined reactor, polish filtered (preceded by an ACN rinse), and slowly cooled to 25°C over 4 hours. After cooling to room temperature, water was added over 4 hours to complete the precipitation of the product. After stirring for 1 hour or more, the solid was isolated by filtration, rinsed with EtOH, and dried to constant weight in a vacuum oven at 45°C. The dried solid was then analyzed for various critical quality attributes (row 2 of Table 17).

[0338] Acetonitrile Slurry: The dried solid was slurried in acetonitrile at 70° C. After stirring for 16 hours or more, the mixture was then cooled to 25° C. and the product was isolated by centrifugation. The solid was rinsed with EtOH and dried to constant weight to isolate Form B (65%).

[0339] As shown in Table 17, reslurrying with acetonitrile also purged impurities from Form B, particularly residual DNFB, from 12.3 to 1.9 ppm (limit 6 ppm).

[0340] [Table 17]

[0341] Example 8 Single crystal cultivation and analysis

[0342] The objective of this study was to solve the single crystal structures of Form A and Form B using single crystal analysis.

[0343] The instrumental methods are listed below. [Table 27]

[0344] Single crystalline Form A suitable for single crystal analysis was obtained by slow evaporation in DCM. Figure 1 shows the XRPD pattern of Form A.

[0345] The crystal structure of Form A was determined at 298(2) K. Based on single crystal data, the single crystal crystallized in the orthorhombic Pbca space group, with R int = 6.0%, and final R1 = [I>2σ(I)] = 4.9% at 298(2) K. An Ortep image of the Form A molecule is shown in Figure 15. The asymmetric unit of Form A is shown in Figure 16. A 3D packing image of Form A is shown in Figure 17. Table 18 provides crystal size data for Form A.

[0346] [Table 18]

[0347] A single crystalline Form B suitable for single crystal analysis was obtained from crystalline Form B, as shown in FIG. 2, which shows the XRPD pattern of Form B.

[0348] The crystal structure of Form B was determined at 298(2) K. Based on single crystal data, the single crystal crystallized in the monoclinic P21 / c space group, with R int = 12.7%, and final R1 = [I>2σ(I)] = 7.7% at 298(2) K. An Ortep image of the Form B molecule is shown in Figure 20. The asymmetric unit of Form B is shown in Figure 19. A 3D packing image of Form B is shown in Figure 20. Table 19 provides crystal size data for Form B.

[0349] [Table 19]

[0350] Example 9 Solubility-Enhancing Additive Screening for Compound (I) - Crystalline vs. Amorphous Form

[0351] The inventors evaluated the solubility enhancement of crystalline Compound (I) Form B and amorphous forms of Compound (I) present in a spray-dried dispersion formulation in suspension vehicles containing solubility-enhancing additives.

[0352] In this study, amorphous drug / polymer colloids of Compound (I) were prepared by spray-drying dispersion (SDD) using Compound (I) and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate (HPMCAS-M). These experiments aimed to identify a solubilizing agent for Compound (I), and TPGS was selected as the additive for the canine study. By extending the dissolution time of Compound (I), rapid uptake of Compound (I) into plasma was prevented, avoiding the risk of a high Cmax (maximum plasma concentration). High plasma concentrations, or rather, a rapid increase in concentration, confer DNP toxicity.

[0353] The SDD of this screening has the following features: Spray dried 120g 25% Compound (I): HPMCAS-M. Spray solvent: 2.5% H2O: Acetone Total solids: 6 wt% [1.5 wt% Compound (I), 4.5 wt% HPMCAS-M] 87% yield PXRD was consistent with an amorphous form A single Tg was observed at 75°C by mDSC.

[0354] [Table 20]

[0355] As shown in Table 20, there is a four- to five-fold difference in solubility between the crystalline and amorphous forms of Compound (I) after one hour. There is also a difference in solubility over time. As shown in Table 20, amorphous Compound (I) dissolves rapidly and then becomes insoluble after extended incubation, as indicated by the lower values. Instead, the concentration of crystalline Form B steadily increases in the medium. Compound (I) is a Class 2 compound with low solubility and high permeability; that is, dissolution is crucial to achieving a slow increase in Compound (I) in plasma, and highly solubilized forms and / or formulations may lead to rapid uptake. Increased solubility (as in the case of the amorphous form) can lead to a sharp increase in PK and potentially unsafe plasma concentrations. This is a prime example, as shown in Table 21.

[0356] As shown in Table 21, when Compound (I) is in amorphous form, the solubility of the free drug is increased by approximately 3-fold. The amorphous form of Compound (I) and TPGS in suspension have a combined effect on the solubility of the free drug, increasing the solubility of the free drug by approximately 9-fold. Addition of TPGS to a suspension of crystalline Compound (I) increases the solubility of the free drug by approximately 3-fold.

[0357] This result highlights that in Examples 10 and 11, unexpected results were achieved by using micronized crystalline Form B, namely, much higher bioavailability than expected.

[0358] [Table 21] All suspensions were prepared at 20 mg / mL of Compound (I). These suspensions had suitable syringability and colloidal stability for use in preclinical and clinical studies. The excipient concentration was determined based on the maximum tolerated dose in dogs.

[0359] Example 10 Comparative pharmacokinetic study of micronized compound (I) in beagle dogs after oral single-dose administration

[0360] Crystalline Form B of Compound (I) (micronized and unmicronized) was administered as a single dose via oral capsule to groups of dogs as set forth in Table 22 below.

[0361] Crystalline Form B was sieved through a 40 mesh screen and micronized by jet milling. The injector and grinder gas pressures were optimized at 5.0 bar each to achieve a D90 of the milled material of 30 μm or less.

[0362] [Table 22]

[0363] Eight serial blood samples (approximately 1 mL each) were collected from each dog at 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, and 24 hours post-dosing for dosing on Day 1. After the final blood sample collection on Day 2, all animals were returned to the ITR reserve colony.

[0364] For this purpose, blood was drawn from each dog by venipuncture and collected in tubes containing the anticoagulant K2EDTA. After collection, the samples were centrifuged (2500 rpm, approximately 4°C for 10 minutes), and the resulting plasma was collected, divided into two aliquots (Set A and Set B), and stored frozen (at -60°C or below) in appropriately labeled vials or tubes.

[0365] FIG. 21 shows the plasma concentrations of 2,4-dinitrophenol after administration of micronized and non-micronized Compound (I).

[0366] Particle size distribution of Compound (I), mean C after administration max and mean AUC 24h are summarized in Table 23 below.

[0367] [Table 23] *Micronized Sample 1 (Dosage Group 2) is the same batch used in Example 11 herein. Compound (I) was administered in a capsule without any additional excipients.

[0368] Example 11 Pharmacokinetics of micronized compound (I)

[0369] Drug administration

[0370] Crystalline Compound (I) or matching placebo was administered orally as a single dose. All subjects, except for the fed cohort, were dosed in the morning after an 8-hour fast, maintained a semi-recumbent position for 1 hour after dosing, and fasted for 4 hours after dosing. Capsules were swallowed with 240 mL (8 fl oz) of room temperature water.

[0371] Micronized Compound (I) was dosed at 600 mg, 1050 mg, and 1400 mg in the fasted state. Compound (I) was rapidly absorbed, with T max The median time was 1.50 to 1.75 hours, and T lag The median time was 0.25 hours. 1 / 2 The mean apparent clearance and volume of distribution remained similar with increasing dose. Compound (I) exposure was observed at C max and AUC, over the dose range of 600 mg to 1400 mg, C max The dose-proportionality was lower (31 = 0.65), and the AUC inf appears to be only slightly lower (31=0.96).

[0372] 2,4-Dinitrophenol appeared immediately after administration of Compound (I), and lag The median time was 0.25 hours, and T max The median time ranged from 6.0 to 8.0 hours. 1 / 2The mean apparent clearance and volume of distribution remained similar with increasing dose. The exposure to 2,4-dinitrophenol was max and AUC, over the dose range of 600 mg to 1400 mg, C max and AUC inf The effects appeared to be less than dose-proportional for , with slopes of 0.89 and 0.81, respectively.

[0373] Figures 22A and 22B show the mean (±SD) plasma Compound (I) concentration-time plots by dose following oral administration of non-micronized Compound (I) (linear (22A) and semi-logarithmic scale (22B)).

[0374] Figures 23A and 23B show the mean (±SD) plasma 2,4-dinitrophenol concentration-time plots by dose following oral administration of non-micronized Compound (I) (linear (23A) and semi-logarithmic scale (23B)).

[0375] Figures 24A and 24B show mean (±SD) plasma Compound (I) concentration-time plots (linear and semi-log scales) by dose following oral administration of micronized Compound (I).

[0376] Figures 25A and 25B below show mean (±SD) plasma 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP) concentration-time plots (linear and semi-logarithmic scales) by dose following oral administration of micronized Compound (I). DNP appeared immediately after a single dose of the micronized formulation of Compound (I), and T lag The median time was 0.25 hours, and T max The median time ranged from 6.0 to 8.0 hours. 1 / 2The mean apparent clearance and volume of distribution remained similar with increasing dose. DNP exposure was less than dose-proportional for Cmax and AUCinf across the dose range of 600 to 1400 mg of micronized Compound (I), with slopes of 0.89 and 0.81, respectively.

[0377] Table 24A shows the pharmacokinetic parameters of Compound (I) after a single dose of non-micronized Compound (I). Table 24B shows the pharmacokinetic parameters of Compound (I) after a single dose of micronized crystalline Compound (I).

[0378] [Table 24A]

[0379] [Table 24B]

[0380] As shown in Table 24B, administration of 1050 mg of a micronized formulation of crystalline Compound (I) resulted in an 8.8-fold increase in Compound (I) Cmax and a 6.9- to 7.2-fold increase in Compound (I) AUC compared to 1050 mg of a non-micronized formulation of Compound (I). Over the range of 600 to 1400 mg of micronized crystalline Compound (I), the Cmax of Compound (I) was 8.8-fold and 6.9- to 7.2-fold. max appeared to increase in a less than dose-proportional manner, and AUC inf appeared to increase in a slightly less than dose-proportional manner (slope = 0.96).

[0381] Figures 26A and 26B compare plasma Compound (I) concentrations (linear and semi-logarithmic scales) after oral administration of 1050 mg of micronized and non-micronized Compound (I). Figures 27A and 27B compare plasma 2,4-dinitrophenol concentrations (linear and semi-logarithmic scales) after oral administration of 1050 mg of micronized and non-micronized Compound (I).

[0382] FIG. 28 shows the effect of particle size distribution on the cumulative release of Compound (I).

[0383] Figure 29 compares the AUC of micronized and non-micronized Compound (I) and shows that micronizing Compound (I) increases exposure.

[0384] The data demonstrate that micronized Compound (I) was absorbed more rapidly and reached higher plasma concentrations compared to non-micronized Compound (I). The micronization and long half-life (i.e., enhancement over time) of Compound (I) results in unexpected levels of therapeutic efficacy for the treatment of a wide range of diseases and conditions.

[0385] A positive effect of food on Compound (I) absorption was evident, as was the effect of Compound (I) particle size on absorption when two formulations of Compound (I) with different particle sizes were evaluated. There was evidence of saturable absorption at a single high dose. AUC / C max The ratio was approximately 18 regardless of dose.

[0386] This study demonstrates the following: The pharmacokinetics of compound (I) is characterized by rapid absorption and rapid excretion. 2,4-Dinitrophenol appears quickly and is excreted relatively slowly. Micronization of compound (I) increased the Cmax of compound (I) and 2,4-dinitrophenol by more than 8.2 times, and the AUC of compound (I) and 2,4-dinitrophenol by more than 6.90 times. Exposure to Compound (I) and 2,4-dinitrophenol following administration of micronized Compound (I) generally increases in a less than dose-proportional manner.

[0387] Example 12 Pharmacokinetics of micronized compound (I)

[0388] A physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) analysis was developed to establish the relationship between particle size and exposure. Micronization of crystalline Compound (I) improved its absorption, with a 600 mg micronized dose having the same absorption rate as a 30 mg non-micronized dose. Dosing with micronized crystalline Compound (I) not only significantly increased plasma exposure of Compound (I) and one of its metabolites, DNP, but also showed signs of reduced hepatic metabolism, likely due to saturation of clearance. Simulations of the effect of different particle size distributions on exposure indicated little difference in exposure as long as the particle size was small.

[0389] To demonstrate the effect of reducing particle size, the output of the PBPK model for a non-micronized dose of 500 mg and a micronized dose of 600 mg are shown in Figures 30A-30C.

[0390] According to the model, the non-micronized dose resulted in a 66% absorption rate (Figure 30A), while the micronized dose resulted in nearly complete dissolution with a 98% absorption rate (Figure 30B). The correlation between absorption rate and absorption for the dose range of 30-1400 mg for the non-micronized and micronized doses is shown in Figure 30C. A non-micronized dose of 30 mg resulted in the same absorption rate (F) as a 600 mg micronized dose. a ), i.e., 98% (Table 25).

[0391] [Table 25]

[0392] The PBPK model was also used to simulate the effect on exposure for hypothetical batches of various particle size distributions (Table 26). For comparison, both the non-micronized and micronized batches from Example 11 were added. All micronized batches had comparable exposure.

[0393] [Table 26]

[0394] Micronization had at least two effects observed on the exposure of crystalline Compound (I) + DNP compared to non-micronized Compound (I): - The more compound (I) dissolved, the higher the absorption rate. - Compound (I) + DNP has higher hepatic exposure and likely saturates hepatic clearance, resulting in lower clearance.
