[0096] "A (a, an, or a(n))" is an indefinite article and, when used herein in reference to a group of substituents or "group of substituents," means at least one.
[0097] When quoting a value, "approximately" includes the stated value ± 10% of the stated value. For example, approximately 50% includes the range of 45% to 55%, and approximately 20 molar equivalents includes the range of 18 to 22 molar equivalents. Therefore, when quoting a range, "approximately" refers to each of the stated values ± 10% of the stated value at each end of the range. For example, the ratio approximately 1 to approximately 3 (weight / weight) includes the range of 0.9 to 3.3. In some embodiments, a quote for approximately one value or parameter includes a description of that value or parameter itself. For example, a quote for approximately 20 molar equivalents includes and describes 20 molar equivalents itself.
[0098] "Administering" refers to administering the composition of the present invention to a target.
[0099] As used herein, “composition” or “pharmaceutical composition” is intended to encompass products containing the present invention or specific active product ingredients (APIs), which may include, for example, pharmaceutically acceptable additives, carriers or excipients described herein in specific amounts as defined throughout the entire disclosure initially filed, and which result from specific combinations of components, for example, specific components in specific amounts described herein.
[0100] A "granulated mixture" refers to a mixture of two or more pharmaceuticals prepared by mixing two or more pharmaceuticals and granulating them together into a specific form. Such a mixture provides a specific substance consisting of two or more pharmaceuticals. For example, in the present invention, a composition may, but is not limited to, a granulated mixture of compound A in acetate form or its solvate and an absorption or penetration enhancer, such as sodium caprate. Such a granulated mixture is formed into particle form or tablet form containing compound A in acetate form or its solvate and sodium caprate. In some embodiments, the composition may include a granulated mixture containing sodium caprate.
[0101] A "disintegrant" refers to a pharmaceutical additive incorporated into a composition to promote disintegration upon contact with a liquid. For example, a disintegrant is a pharmaceutically acceptable agent used in the preparation of tablets that decomposes and releases the pharmaceutical substance when the tablet comes into contact with moisture. Examples of disintegrants include, but are not limited to, cross-linked polymers containing cross-linked polyvinylpyrrolidone (crospovidone) and cross-linked sodium carboxymethylcellulose (croscarmellose sodium), as well as modified starch, sodium starch glycolate, etc. Typical disintegrants for use in the present invention may include, but are not limited to, agar, alginic acid, calcium carbonate, microcrystalline cellulose, sodium croscarmellose, crospovidone, potassium polaritrin, sodium starch glycolate, potato or tapioca starch, other starches, pregelatinized starch, clay, other algins, other celluloses, gums (such as Guerlain), low-substituted hydroxypropylcellulose, or mixtures thereof. In some embodiments, the disintegrant for use in the present invention may include, but is not limited to, sodium croscarmellose.

[0102] "To cover" refers to placing one phase or coating agent on top of another phase or coating agent. Such arrangements can be adapted to the shape of the underlying phase or coating agent so that the layering of the phases and coating agents does not leave any substantial gaps between them.
[0103] "Enteric coating" refers to any of the commonly applied polymer coatings used for the delayed release of active ingredients. As conventionally understood in the art, enteric coatings are generally polymer barriers applied to oral medications to prevent their dissolution or breakdown in the gastric environment. This helps either protect the drug from stomach acid, protect the stomach from the drug's harmful effects, or release the drug after the stomach (usually in the upper intestinal tract). Some drugs are unstable at the pH of stomach acid and need protection from degradation. Enteric coatings are also an effective way to achieve drug targeting (e.g., gastric resistance). Such delayed release is typically pH-dependent, allowing for further release of the active ingredient in the intestinal tract where the pH differs from that of the stomach. Generally, suitable materials used in enteric coatings may include, but are not limited to, fatty acids, waxes, shellac, plastics, and plant fibers. Such enteric materials may include, but are not limited to, cellulose phthalate acetate, polyvinyl alcohol phthalate, shellac, zein, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose phthalate, cellulose acetate trimalate, and film resins. Additional examples of enteric coatings for use herein include, but are not limited to, those based on esters such as aleurtic acid, cellulose acetate phthalate (CAP), poly(methacrylate-co-methacrylate), poly(vinyl acetate phthalate: PVAP), cellulose acetate trimellitate (CAT), and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose phthalate (HPMCP).Other suitable materials used in enteric coating agents may also include poly(methacrylic acid ethyl acrylate) (L100D-55), as well as combinations of methyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), methacrylic acid (FS30D), hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate (HPMC-AS), and L-type HPMC-AS, but are not limited thereto. In some embodiments, the enteric coating agent covers the subcoating agent.
[0104] "Flow promoter" refers to a substance added to a powder to improve its fluidity and / or lubricity. Examples of flow promoters include, but are not limited to, magnesium stearate, fumed silica, starch, talc, etc.
[0105] "Silica" refers to a pharmaceutical additive that can be used as a fluidizing agent (anti-caking agent), adsorbent, and desiccant in the form of a solid product. It can also be used to increase the mechanical stability and disintegration rate of the composition. Silica can be fumed, i.e., it refers to its product through a pyrolysis method that generates fine particles of silica. The particles of fumed silica can have various sizes, such as 5 nm to 100 nm, or 5 to 50 nm. The particles are non-porous and can have a surface area of 50 to 1,000 m 2 / g or 50 to 600 m 2 / g. An example of silica is Aerosil 200, which has a specific surface area of about 200 m 2 / g. Silica can be hydrophilic. Examples of suitable silica materials include, but are not limited to, SiO2, colloidal silicon dioxide, aerosol, colloidal silica, fumed silica, fumed silicon dioxide, colloidal anhydrous silica, colloidal silicon dioxide, etc.
[0106] "Lubricant" refers to a substance added to a formulation to reduce friction. Compounds that function as lubricants can also have properties as flow promoters. Examples of lubricants include, but are not limited to, talc, silica, and fats such as vegetable stearin, magnesium stearate or stearic acid.
[0107] "Microcrystalline cellulose" or "MCC" refers to a pharmaceutical grade cellulose manufactured from purified wood pulp. MCC can be unmodified, such as silicified microcrystalline cellulose (SMCC), or can be chemically modified. MCC can function as a bulking agent and adjuvant in tablet formation due to its desirable compressibility.
[0108] "Patient" or "subject" refers to a living body and includes, but is not limited to, human subjects who have or are prone to suffer from a disease or condition that can be treated by administration of the pharmaceutical composition provided herein. Further non-limiting examples include, but are not limited to, humans, other mammals, cows, rats, mice, dogs, monkeys, goats, sheep, female cows, deer, horses, and other mammalian animals. In some embodiments, the patient is human.
[0109] "Pharmaceutically acceptable" means that a carrier, excipient or additive should be compatible with other components or ingredients of the composition of the present invention, i.e., acceptable for pharmaceutical use, useful, safe and non-toxic. According to the present invention, pharmaceutically acceptable means approved or approvable as listed in the United States Pharmacopeia or other generally recognized pharmacopeias for use in animals, more specifically humans.

[0122] The “therapeutic dose” refers to the amount of a compound (i.e., compound A) or pharmaceutical composition that is useful in treating or alleviating a specific disease or condition, or in exhibiting a detectable therapeutic or inhibitory effect. The “therapeutic dose” further implies a non-toxic but sufficient amount of the specific drug cited to produce the desired therapeutic effect. The exact amount required varies from subject to subject depending on factors such as the patient's overall health and age. The exact amount depends on the purpose of the treatment and can be determined by those skilled in the art using known techniques (see, for example, Lieberman, Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms (vols. 1-3, 1992); Lloyd, The Art, Science and Technology of Pharmaceutical Compounding (1999); Pickar, Dosage Calculations (1999); and Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, 20th edition, 2003, edited by Gennaro, Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins).
[0123] "To treat," "to treat," and "treatment" mean any sign of success in treating or improving an injury, pathology, or condition, including any objective or subjective parameters such as relief, remission, reduction, or greater tolerance to the injury, pathology, or condition, slowing the rate of degeneration or debilitation, reducing the final point of degeneration to milder debilitation, or improving the patient's physical or mental well-being. Treatment or improvement of symptoms may be based on objective or subjective parameters, including the results of a physical examination, neuropsychiatric examination, and / or psychiatric evaluation.
[0124] The abbreviation “(V / V)” refers to the phrase “volume to volume”, that is, the ratio of a specific substance in a mixture measured by the volume or volume amount of the components of the composition disclosed herein to the total volume amount of the composition. Therefore, the component amount has no unit and represents the percentage amount of the volume of the component relative to the total volume of the composition. For example, a 2% (V / V) solvent mixture can indicate that 2 mL of one solvent is present in 100 mL of the solvent mixture.
[0125] The abbreviation “(w / w)” refers to the phrase “weight to weight”, that is, the ratio of a specific substance in a mixture measured by the weight or mass or weight amount of the components of the composition disclosed herein to the total weight amount of the composition. Therefore, the component amount has no unit and represents the percentage amount of the weight of the component relative to the total weight of the composition. For example, a 2% (w / w) solution can indicate that 2 grams of solute are dissolved in 100 grams of the solution.
[0126] The systemic administration route conventionally understood in the medical or pharmaceutical field refers to or is defined as the administration route of a drug, pharmaceutical composition or formulation, or other substance into the circulatory system such that various body tissues and organs are exposed to the drug, formulation or other substance. As conventionally understood in the art, administration can be by oral (ingesting a drug or oral preparation through the mouth and absorbing it through the digestive tract), enteral administration (drug absorption also occurs through the digestive tract), or parenteral administration (generally by injection, infusion, or implantation, etc.).
[0127] Bioavailability refers to the degree and rate at which the active moiety (drug or metabolite) enters the systemic circulation and approaches the site of action. The bioavailability of a drug is affected by the characteristics of the dosage form and depends in part on its design and manufacture.

[0336] In describing the present invention, the abbreviations and symbols used herein follow the usual use of such abbreviations and symbols by those skilled in the art of chemistry and biology. Methods of characterization X-ray Powder Diffraction (XRPD)
[0337] XRPD analysis was performed using PANalytical X'pert pro with a PIXcel detector (128 channels), scanning the sample at 3–35°²θ. The material was gently pulverized to release any aggregates, and the sample was supported by loading it into a multiwell plate with Kapton or Mylar polymer film. The multiwell plate was then placed in a diffractometer and analyzed using CuK radiation (α1λ=1.54060A; α2=1.5444A; β=1.39225A; α1:α2 ratio=0.5) operating in transmission mode (step size 0.0130°²θ, step time 18.87s) with a 40kV / 40mA generator setting. The data were visualized, and images were generated using the HighScore Plus 4.7 desktop application (PANalytical, 2017). Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM)
[0338] The presence of crystalline (birefringent) material was determined using an Olympus BX50 microscope equipped with cross-polarizing lenses and a Motic camera. Images were acquired using Motic Images Plus 3.0. All images were recorded using a 20x objective lens unless otherwise specified. Thermogravimetric Analysis / Differential Scanning Calorimetry (TGA / DSC)
[0339] Approximately 5-10 mg of the substance was placed in a pre-weighed open-top aluminum dish and loaded into a TA Instruments Discovery SDT 650 Auto-Simultaneous DSC, which was kept at room temperature. The sample was then heated from 30°C to 400°C at a rate of 10°C / min, during which the change in sample weight was recorded along the heat flow response (DSC). Nitrogen was supplied at 200 cm³. 3 It was used as a purge gas for the sample at a flow rate of [number] minutes. Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC)
[0340] Approximately 1–5 mg of the substance was weighed into an aluminum DSC dish and sealed with an aluminum lid without airtight sealing. The sample dish was then loaded into a TA Instruments Discovery DSC 2500 differential scanning calorimeter equipped with an RC90 condenser. The sample and reference were heated to 170°C at a scan rate of 10°C / min, and the resulting heat flow response was monitored. After the sample was recooled to 20°C, everything was reheated to 275°C at 10°C / min. Nitrogen was supplied in a 50 cm³ chamber. 3 It was used as a purge gas at a flow rate of [per minute]. Infrared Spectroscopy (IR)
[0341] Infrared spectroscopy was performed using a Bruker ALPHA P spectrometer. A sufficient amount of material was placed in the center of the spectrometer plate, and the spectrum was obtained using the following parameters: Resolution: 4cm -1 Background scan time: 16 scans Sample scan time: 16 scans Data acquisition: 4000~400cm -1 Resulting spectrum: transmittance Software: OPUS version 6 Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR)
[0342] 1¹H NMR tests were performed using a Bruker AVIIIHD spectrometer equipped with a DCH frozen probe operating at 500.12 MHz relative to protons. The tests were conducted with deuterated dimethyl sulfoxide (d6-DMSO), and each sample was prepared to a concentration of approximately 5–25 mM. Dynamic vapor sorption (DVS)
[0343] Approximately 10–20 mg of sample was placed in a mesh vapor adsorption pan and loaded onto a DVS Intrinsic dynamic vapor sorbent balance using Surface Measurement Systems. The sample was subjected to a ramping profile at 40–90% relative humidity (RH) in 10% increments, with the sample maintained at each step until a stable weight was achieved at 25°C (dm / dt 0.004%, minimum step length 30 min, maximum step length 500 min). After the adsorption cycle was complete, the sample was dried to 0% RH using the same procedure, and then returned to 40% RH for a second adsorption cycle. Two cycles were performed. The weight change between adsorption / desorption cycles was plotted to allow determination of the hygroscopicity of the sample. XRPD analysis was then performed on any remaining solid. High-performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet detection (HPLC-UV)
[0344] The following parameters were used: Equipment: Dionex Ultimate 3000 Column: X-Bridge C18 150×4.6mm 3.5μm Column temperature: 30℃ Autosampler temperature: 5℃ UV wavelength: 260nm Injection volume: 5.00 μL Flow rate: 0.7mL / min Mobile phase A: 0.1% TFA in H2O Mobile phase B: Acetonitrile Excipients: Water: Methanol v / v 50:50
[0345] The following gradient program was used: [Table 1]
[0346] LC-MS was performed at the University of Edinburgh. Samples were prepared to a concentration of approximately 20 μg / mL in 0.1% FA of 1:1 water / acetonitrile. Analysis was performed using electrospray on a SolariXR FT-ICR MS equipped with a 12T superconducting magnet (Bruker Daltonics). Variable Humidity X-ray Powder Diffraction (VH-XRPD)
[0347] XRPD analysis was performed using a Philips X'Pert Pro Multipurpose diffractometer equipped with a humidity chamber. Samples were scanned from 4 to 36°²θ using CuK radiation (α1λ=1.54060A; α2=1.54443A; β=1.39225A; α1:α2 ratio=0.5) operating in Bragg-Brentano geometry (step size 0.008°²θ) with a 40kV / 40mA generator setting. Measurements were performed at 30°C during the humidity profiles described below: Initial scan at 40% RH Humidity increased to 90% RH in 105 minutes (scans at 5 and 105 minutes). Humidity decreased to 40% RH in 10 minutes (scan after 5 minutes). Humidity decreased to 5% RH in 60 minutes (scan performed after 60 minutes). Humidity dropped to 0% RH in 17 hours (scan performed after 17 hours). Humidity increased to 40% RH in 60 minutes (scans performed at 30 and 60 minutes). Humidity increased to 60% RH in 105 minutes (scans performed at 5 and 105 minutes). Humidity increased to 80% RH in 60 minutes (scans performed at 5 and 55 minutes). [Example 1] Synthesis of Form 1 of compound A diacetate
[0348] Form 1 of 5-((5-(4-carbamimidylphenoxy)pentyl)oxy)picolinimidoamide diacetate (compound A diacetate) was prepared in 6 steps from the starting materials 4-hydroxybenzonitrile (SM-1), 1,5-dibromopentane (SM-2), and 5-hydroxypicolinonitrile (SM-3). The synthetic route is shown in Scheme 1 below. [ka]
[0349] In the first step, SM-1 was alkylated with SM-2 in the presence of potassium carbonate in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) to obtain INT-1. Next, SM-3 was alkylated with INT-1 in the presence of potassium carbonate in DMF to obtain INT-2. Then, the nitrile at the 2-position of the pyridine ring was converted to amidine by sequential treatment with sodium methoxide and ammonium acetate in methanol to obtain INT-3. Treatment of INT-3 with ethanolic HCl yielded an iminoester INT-4, which could not be isolated but could be converted to the corresponding amidine by treatment with ammonium carbonate in methanol, and compound A was obtained by conversion to a diacetate by treatment with ammonium acetate in methanol. Step 1: Preparation of 4-((5-bromopentyl)oxy)benzonitrile (INT-1)
[0350] A mixture of SM-2 (22.19 kg, 5.0 equivalents) and potassium carbonate (3.19 kg, 1.2 equivalents) in DMF (6.9 L), heated to 40 ± 5 °C, was to be mixed with a solution of SM-1 (2.30 kg, 1.0 equivalent) in DMF (11.5 L) for approximately 1 hour. The reaction mixture was stirred at 40 ± 5 °C for approximately 4 hours, at which point intra-process analysis (IPC-1) indicated that the reaction was complete. The reaction mixture was cooled to approximately 30 °C and quenched with water. The two-phase mixture was separated, and the aqueous layer was extracted with n-heptane. The combined organic layers were washed with water and then cooled to 25 ± 5 °C. The resulting solid was collected by filtration and washed with n-heptane. The filtrate was cooled to -25 ± 5 °C for approximately 3 hours, and the resulting solid was collected by filtration and washed with n-heptane. The combined solids were dried under vacuum at 30±5℃ to obtain the crude product.
[0351] The crude product and n-heptane were combined and heated at 65±5°C for approximately 1 hour. The solution was then cooled to 37.5±2.5°C and filtered. The filtrate containing the product was concentrated to approximately 5 volumes by distillation and cooled to 30°±5°C, during which time the product crystallized. The product was collected by filtration, washed with n-heptane, and dried under vacuum at 30±5°C to obtain INT-1 (1.444 kg, yield 26%, HPLC purity 97.8%).
[0352] The second batch was prepared using the same process with 0.875 kg of SM-1 and 22.19 kg of SM-2, yielding 0.776 kg of INT-1 (39% yield, 98.5% HPLC purity). Step 2: Preparation of 5-((5-(4-cyanophenoxy)pentyl)oxy)picolinonitrile (INT-2)
[0353] Potassium carbonate (3.00 kg, 2.0 equivalents) was added in three separate additions to a solution of SM-3 (2.83 kg, 1.17 equivalents) in DMF (7.20 L) heated to 30 ± 5 °C. The resulting mixture was heated to 75 ± 5 °C, and then a solution of INT-1 (2.40 kg, 1.0 equivalent) in DMF (12 L) was added. The reaction mixture was stirred for approximately 1 hour, at which point intra-process analysis (IPC-1) indicated that the reaction was complete. The reaction mixture was cooled to 30 ± 5 °C, quenched with purified water, and stirred for approximately 2 hours. The solid was collected by filtration, washed with purified water, and dried under vacuum at 50-55 °C to obtain INT-2 (2.46 kg, yield 89%, HPLC purity 97.3%). Step 3: Preparation of 5-((5-(4-cyanophenoxy)pentyl)oxy)picolinimido acetate (INT-3)
[0354] A mixture of INT-2 (2.43 kg, 1.0 equivalent) in methanol (24 L), cooled to 10±5°C, was gradually increased by adding a sodium methoxide solution (0.318 kg, 30% solution in methanol, 0.2 equivalents) while maintaining a batch temperature of 10±5°C. Upon completion of the addition, the reaction mixture was heated to approximately 50°C for about 6 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled to 30±5°C and sampled for in-process analysis (IPC-1). Next, ammonium acetate (1.82 kg, 3.0 equivalents) was added, and the resulting mixture was stirred for approximately 16 hours, at which point the in-process analysis indicated that the reaction was complete (IPC-2). The reaction mixture was then quenched with purified water and stirred for approximately 2 hours. The solid was collected by filtration and washed with purified water. The wet solid was slurryed with acetone, heated to 50±5°C for approximately 2 hours, cooled to 30±5°C, filtered, and washed with acetone. This slurrying process was repeated two more times. The wet solid was dried under vacuum at 55±5°C to obtain INT-3 (2.50 kg, yield 82.5%, HPLC purity 97.5%). Steps 4 and 5: Preparation of 5-((5-(4-carbamimidylphenoxy)pentyl)oxy)picolinimidoamide (Compound A)
[0355] A mixture of INT-3 (2.44 kg) and ethanolic HCl (48.8 L, 5.0 M in ethanol) was cooled to 15-20°C. HCl gas was passed through the reaction mixture until the HCl content reached 32.0% or higher (IPC-1). The reaction mixture was heated to 30±5°C and stirred for approximately 12 hours, at which point in-process analysis indicated that the reaction was complete (IPC-2). Methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) was added to the reaction mixture, and the solid (INT-4) was collected by filtration and washed with MTBE. The wet solid was slurryed with MTBE, filtered, and washed with MTBE to obtain INT-4. A mixture of INT-4 and ammonium carbonate (3.17 kg) in methanol (24.5 L) was stirred for approximately 10 hours at 25±5°C, at which point in-process analysis indicated that the reaction was complete (IPC-3). The solvent was removed by distillation until approximately 6 volumes remained. The batch temperature was adjusted to 30±5°C, and acetone was added to the slurry. After 1 hour, the solid was collected by filtration, washed with acetone, and dried under vacuum at approximately 50-55°C to obtain crude compound A (2.12 kg).
[0356] To a solution of crude compound A (2.12 kg) in N,N-dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO, 21.2 L), dichloromethane (DCM, 53.1 L) was added, and the resulting mixture was stirred at 30±5°C for approximately 5 hours. The solid was collected by filtration, washed with DCM, and dried under vacuum at 50-55°C to obtain 1.91 kg of compound A. Based on the results from in-process elemental impurity testing (IPC-4), the batch was further purified in two batches as described below.
[0357] Activated carbon (Norit® CGP Super, 0.283 kg) was added to a solution of compound A (0.945 kg) in methanol (47.25 L). The resulting mixture was stirred for 24 hours at 30 ± 5 °C. The mixture was filtered through a Celite® bed. The filter bed was washed twice with methanol. The combined filtrate was concentrated by distillation until approximately 18 L remained. Acetone was added, and the mixture was stirred for approximately 4 hours at 30 ± 5 °C. The solid was collected by filtration and washed with acetone.
[0358] The wet cakes from two batches were combined and slurryed with an aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution. The solid was collected by filtration and washed with purified water. The wet solid was slurryed with acetone, filtered, washed with acetone, and dried under vacuum at approximately 30-35°C to obtain purified compound A (1.10 kg, yield 58%, HPLC purity 99.0%). Step 6: Preparation of 5-((5-(4-carbamimidylphenoxy)pentyl)oxy)picolinimidoamide diacetate (form 1 of compound A diacetate)
[0359] A mixture of compound A (1.09 kg) and ammonium acetate (0.49 equivalents) in methanol (10.9 L) was stirred at 30 ± 5°C for approximately 12 hours. Then, methanol (54.5 L) was added, and the batch was heated to 35 ± 5°C and stirred for approximately 2 hours. The reaction mixture was filtered, and the filtrate was washed with methanol. The combined filtrate was distilled under vacuum at approximately 40°C until approximately 20 L remained. Then, acetone was added, and the resulting slurry was stirred at 30 ± 5°C for approximately 45 minutes. The product was collected by filtration and washed with acetone. The solvent-moistened product was slurryed with n-heptane at 60–65°C for approximately 2 hours. The slurry was cooled to approximately 30°C. The product was collected by filtration, washed with n-heptane, and dried under vacuum at approximately 60–70°C to obtain form 1 of compound A diacetate (0.903 kg, yield 61%, HPLC purity 99.0%). [Example 2] Characterization of Form 1 of Compound A
[0360] Form 1 of compound A diacetate ("Form 1") was crystalline according to XRPD, as shown in Figure 1. A summary of the main peaks identified in the XRPD spectrum of Form 1 is shown in Table 1 below. [Table 2]
[0361] TG analysis identified a 31.9% mass loss (1.81 equivalents of acetic acid) associated with an endothermic event with an initiation at 193.1°C and a peak at 217.7°C, likely corresponding to melting in form 1. The sample was found to decompose above 250°C (Figure 2).
[0362] During the first heating phase with DSC to 170°C, a small exothermic event was identified, with an initiation at 133.1°C and a peak at 135.2°C (Figure 3). No significant thermal events were observed during the cooling phase with DSC (Figure 4). During the second heating phase with DSC, a large endothermic event corresponding to sample melting was found, with an initiation at 220.4°C and a peak at 228.6°C (Figure 5).
[0363] A second DSC test was performed, in which the material was heated from 20°C to 275°C, and an endothermic event corresponding to sample melting was identified, with an initiation at 221.0°C and a peak at 228.7°C. Subsequently, a sharp exothermic event corresponding to recrystallization of the free form of the API followed closely, with an initiation at 228.9°C and a peak at 229.9°C (Figure 6).
[0364] In morphology 1, slight hygroscopicity was observed by DVS analysis, accompanied by 1.8% mass uptake (0.5 equivalents of water) at 90% RH (Figure 7). No signs of any morphological change were observed in the dynamical plot in Figure 8. The solid recovered after DVS analysis was maintained as pattern 1, as accepted by XRPD.
[0365] Small, poorly birefringent crystals were observed in PLM, but no clear morphology was detected. Aggregation was also visualized (Figure 9).
[0366] The FT-IR spectrum shown in Figure 10 was consistent with the expected structure of compound A. 1 The 1H NMR spectrum is shown in Figure 11, which is consistent with the expected structure of compound A and confirms the diacetate.
[0367] HPLC analysis yielded a relative area purity value of 96.7%.
[0368] The DAD spectrum can be found in Figure 12 (λmax 264.0 mAU).
[0369] LC-MS confirmed that the molecular weight of the API of compound A was 342.2[M+H]+1 with an error margin of 80 ppb (Figure 13).
[0370] In a one-week stability assessment of morphology 1, no morphological changes were observed by XRPD at 2 and 7 days at 40°C / 75% RH, 80°C, or ambient temperature and humidity.
[0371] The results of the characterization tests described above are summarized in Table 2 below. [Table 3] [Example 3] Screening of solvent solubility for compound A diacetate
[0372] Approximately 380 mg of Form 1 was dissolved in 35 mL of methanol and subjected to a rotary evaporator. The resulting solid was analyzed by XRPD and found to be a mixture of the novel patterns shown in Forms 1 and 2. Subsamples were further characterized (TG / DSC, 1 The material was collected by 1H NMR and PLM. After rotational evaporation, the isolated crystalline substance was redissolved in 27 mL of water. Since the solution remained slightly turbid, it was filtered with a syringe to obtain a clear solution, which was equally divided into 18 vials, yielding approximately 20 mg of the substance per vial. The samples were then frozen at -50°C and freeze-dried for approximately 72 hours. The resulting solid was subjected to XRPD and1 Analysis by 1H NMR revealed poor crystallinity. This substance was used as an input for the solvent solubility screening described below.
[0373] The solubility of compound A diacetate was tested in 18 different solvent systems. A suitable solvent was added to approximately 20 mg of lyophilized compound A diacetate in 100 μL aliquots. Between each addition, the mixture was checked for dissolution. If dissolution was not observed, the mixture was heated to approximately 40°C and checked again. This procedure was continued until dissolution was observed or until 100 volumes of solvent had been added.
[0374] If the solid did not dissolve after adding 2 mL of solvent, the slurry was circulated between room temperature and 40°C for 48 hours. The solid was then isolated by centrifugal filtration and analyzed by XRPD. If the sample dissolved completely upon addition of solvent (methanol and water only), it was left uncapped and allowed to evaporate at room temperature. Any solid recovered after evaporation was then analyzed by XRPD.
[0375] The results of the preliminary solvent solubility screening are summarized in Table 3 below. The substance was found to have low solubility (<5 mg / mL) in all solvents investigated except methanol (20 mg / mL) and water (50 mg / mL). XRPD analysis of the recovered solid revealed six novel diffractogram patterns. [Table 4] [Example 4] Primary polymorph screening
[0376] The amorphous form of compound A diacetate was prepared via lyophilization. Approximately 750 mg of form 1 of compound A diacetate was dissolved in 78 mL of water. Gentle heating and ultrasonic treatment were used to aid dissolution, but the solution remained slightly cloudy, so it was filtered in a syringe to obtain a clear solution. This solution was then equally divided into 14 vials, yielding approximately 50 mg per vial. The samples were then frozen at -50°C and lyophilized for approximately 48 hours. Subsamples were then taken from one sample and analyzed by XRPD. The material was successfully made amorphous.
[0377] Next, the amorphous form was added to one of 13 solvents and subjected to the following methods: thermal circulation, evaporation, crash cooling, addition of a poor solvent, or solvent drop grinding. heat circulation
[0378] A slurry was formed by adding a suitable solvent to a lyophilized compound A diacetate in 100 μL aliquots. The sample was then sealed and placed in an incubator shaker, with temperature circulation between room temperature and 40°C for approximately 72 hours. After temperature circulation, the slurry was centrifuged and filtered to isolate the solid, which was analyzed by XRPD. The saturated mother liquor solution was divided equally into four vials for crystallization testing. The XRPD plates were dried at 40°C, and all samples were re-analyzed by XRPD to check for morphological changes. The remaining isolated solid was gently dried under vacuum at room temperature, and if a new morphology was identified, the solid was analyzed again by XRPD. 1 1H NMR, TG / DSC, PLM, and FT-IR analyses were performed.
[0379] The results of the thermal circulation tests are summarized in Table 4. The entire solid recovered after thermal circulation was crystalline according to XRPD analysis. Form 2 was recovered from THF and water, but when the THF solid was dried under vacuum, it was observed to be converted to Form 3, and when dried at 40°C, a mixture of Forms 1 and 2 was obtained. When the solid of Form 2 recovered from water was dried, a new form, Form 9, was obtained, which could only be isolated from water, suggesting the possibility of a hydrate. The solid of Form 3 was recovered from thermal circulation in 1,4-dioxane, IPA, acetone, and DCM, but when the solid slurryed in DCM was dried at 40°C for 72 hours, a morphological change to Form 11 was observed. Form 4 was isolated only from DMA, and Form 5 was obtained from NMP, indicating a solvate of DMA and NMP. Both forms appeared to be stable when dried at 40°C, but when Form 4 was dried under vacuum, it was observed to be converted to a mixture of Forms 4 and 5. Solvent contamination occurs when samples are dried under vacuum, resulting in novel forms of contamination. 1 ¹H NMR analysis revealed that Form 4 is a solvate of DMA and may have been contaminated with NMP in the vacuum oven used to obtain the mixture of Form 5. Form 6 was isolated from a thermal cycle in toluene but showed poor crystallinity according to XRPD and remained unchanged when dried at 40°C. Form 7 was recovered from acetonitrile and methanol and showed no change in morphology upon drying. Form 8 was recovered from ethanol and ethyl acetate and showed no change in morphology upon drying, although a significant decrease in crystallinity was observed when the ethanol solid was dried under vacuum. evaporation
[0380] A saturated mother liquor solution was prepared as described in the "Thermal Circulation" section above, but without capping, it was left to stand and evaporated at room temperature. Observations were recorded after evaporation, and any recovered solid was analyzed by XRPD.
[0381] The results of the evaporation tests are summarized in Table 4. The solid was not recovered from the evaporation of most saturated mother liquor solutions, which is likely due to the low solubility of compound A diacetate in these solvent systems. The white solid was recovered from the evaporation of an aqueous solution of compound A diacetate, which was identified as morphology 9 by XRPD, with several additional peaks present. Crash Cooling
[0382] A saturated mother liquor solution was prepared as described in the "Thermal Circulation" section above and stored at approximately 4°C for 5 days. Observations were recorded, and where possible, solids were recovered and analyzed by XRPD. If no precipitation occurred, or if there were not enough solids for XRPD analysis, the sample was placed in a storage chamber at approximately -18°C for 6 days. Further observations were then recorded, and any solids were analyzed by XRPD.
[0383] The results of the crush cooling test are summarized in Table 4. Except for the water sample which returned to a turbid solution, no precipitate was observed when the saturated mother liquor solution was cooled to 4°C. XRPD analysis of the solid recovered after filtration of this solution yielded morphology 2. Further cooling of the mother liquor to -18°C yielded a small amount of precipitate in the methanol sample, but not enough material was recovered for XRPD analysis. Addition of poor solvent
[0384] The poor solvent was added to a suitable saturated mother liquor solution in 100 μL aliquots until precipitation occurred or 1 mL was added. If precipitation was observed, the sample was centrifuged and the recovered solid was analyzed by XRPD. If no precipitation occurred, the sample was cooled in a refrigerator at 4°C.
[0385] Heptane was used as a poor solvent for 1,4-dioxane, 2-propanol, acetone, ethanol, ethyl acetate, N-methylpyrrolidone, tetrahydrofuran, toluene, and DCM. Acetone was used as a poor solvent for acetonitrile, N,N-dimethylacetamide, and water.
[0386] The results of the poor solvent addition test are summarized in Table 4. Except for water, which reverted to an amorphous state, no precipitate was observed when the poor solvent was added to the saturated mother liquor solution. Solvent droplet pulverization
[0387] Form 1 of compound A diacetate was made amorphous via lyophilization for use in a solvent droplet pulverization test. Approximately 260 mg of form 1 of compound A diacetate was weighed and dissolved in 26 mL of water. Gentle heating and ultrasonic treatment were used to aid dissolution. The slightly turbid solution was then filtered through a syringe to obtain a clear solution, which was divided equally into 13 vials. The samples were frozen at -50°C for approximately 3 hours, followed by lyophilization for approximately 16 hours. Since lyophilization was incomplete at this point, an additional 2 mL of water was added to each sample to redissolve the substance. The samples were frozen again at -50°C, followed by lyophilization for approximately 72 hours. Subsample No. 13 was analyzed by XRPD to confirm successful lyophilization. Four 2.8 mm stainless steel beads were placed in each vial containing the lyophilized compound A diacetate substance. One to two drops of a suitable saturated mother liquor solution obtained after thermal circulation were added to each sample vial. Next, the sample was ground using the following method: speed: 5000 RPM, cycle time: 60 seconds, number of cycles: 5, time between cycles: 10 seconds.
[0388] The results of the solvent droplet pulverization test are summarized in Table 4. Very poorly crystalline / amorphous substances were recovered from IPA, acetone, acetonitrile, ethanol, NMP, and water. Solids of form 3 were obtained from 1,4-dioxane and THF, while solids of form 4 were obtained from DMA. Novel diffractograms shown in form 10 were obtained from ethyl acetate, toluene, and DCM. Further preparation of polymorphic forms
[0389] Since Form 2 was converted to Forms 3 and 1 when dried at room temperature under vacuum, and Form 4 was converted to a mixture of Forms 4 and 5, attempts were made to re-prepare these forms for further characterization. In addition, the solid of Form 8 from ethanol lost a significant amount of crystallinity when dried, so these solids were also reprocessed in attempts to restore the crystallinity of the material.
[0390] For Form 2, 2 mL of THF was added to the solid of Form 3, which was obtained by drying the THF solid under vacuum, to form a slurry.
[0391] For Form 4, 2 mL of DMA was added to the solid of Form 4 / Form 5, which was obtained by drying the DMA solid under vacuum, to form a slurry.
[0392] For Form 8, 2 mL of ethanol was added to the poorly crystalline Form 8 substance isolated by drying under vacuum to form a slurry.
[0393] Next, these slurries were shaken at 50°C for approximately 5 hours, then centrifuged and filtered, and the solids were analyzed by XRPD. While the crystallinity of the substance in form 8 was successfully restored, no change in morphology was observed in the THF or DMA slurries. Therefore, an additional 1 mL of DMA was added to the mixture of form 4 / form 5, and an additional 2 mL of THF was added to the solid in form 3. These slurries were then subjected to temperature cycling between room temperature and 40°C in 4-hour cycles with stirring for approximately 72 hours. The samples were then centrifuged and filtered, and the solids were again analyzed by XRPD. Again, no change in morphology was observed; the DMA solid remained in the mixture of form 4 / form 5, and the THF solid remained in form 3.
[0394] The results of the primary polymorph screening are summarized in Table 4 below. Eleven polymorphic forms of compound A diacetate were identified during the primary polymorph screening, demonstrating that the diacetate possesses complex polymorphic properties. The characterization of the novel forms is summarized in Table 5, and a diagram illustrating the relationships between the forms is shown in Figure 67.
[0395] In form 2, it was found that it could not be reproduced from THF, but this is not surprising as it is now known to be a tetrahydrate. Form 3 is TG / DSC and 1 Solvation was observed by 1H NMR, with both identifying 1.0 and 1.2 equivalents of THF in the sample, respectively. However, it was advised to scale up this solvated form to further investigation from several process-related solvents (1,4-dioxane, 2-propanol, acetone, and THF). Form 4 was obtained only from DMA and is therefore likely to be a DMA solvate, and similarly, Form 5 was found to be an NMP solvate, with TG / DSC confirming 0.8 equivalents of NMP present in the sample. Form 6 was obtained from toluene and yielded a poorly crystallinity diffractogram and a moderate 13.6% mass loss (0.7 equivalents of toluene) from the start of heating by TG / DSC.
[0396] Form 7 was obtained from methanol and acetonitrile. 1 ¹H NMR did not detect methanol in the analyzed solid, and TG / DSC analysis identified a sharp 4.5% mass loss corresponding to 1.2 equivalents of water, which hydrated Form 7. Form 8 was obtained from ethanol and ethyl acetate and was initially thought to be an anhydrous form because there was no mass loss when the substance was heated in TG / DSC. Salt disproportionation / sample melting was observed at a lower temperature of 186.1°C than for Form 1, which meant that Form 8 was initially thought to be a metastable anhydrous form of compound A diacetate. It was later concluded during secondary screening that Form 8 was another solvated form.
[0397] Form 9 was obtained from water, and for this reason, it was scaled up during secondary screening. TG / DSC analysis revealed 1.7 equivalents of water in the sample, and the large, highly birefringent lath-like morphology was present due to PLM. Form 10 was observed only from solvent droplet pulverization tests, while Form 11 was observed only when Form 3 was dried from DCM. [Table 5] [Table 6] Characterization of novel polymorphs Form 2
[0398] The XRPD diffractogram for morphology 2 is shown in Figure 14. Form 3
[0399] Form 3 was recovered from thermally circulating amorphous compound A diacetate in 1,4-dioxane, IPA, acetone, and DCM. Form 3 was also recovered after drying the Form 2 substance from THF under vacuum, and after solvent droplet pulverization using a saturated THF solution. The XRPD diffractogram is shown in Figure 15, along with a list of peaks shown in Table 6. The Form 3 substance obtained after drying the Form 2 substance from THF was used for further characterization. 1 ¹H NMR identified 1.2 equivalents of THF with a 4.89H peak at 3.60 ppm. The substance was consistent with the structure of compound A diacetate, which corresponds to CH3 in acetic acid and has a 6.00H peak at 1.74 ppm (Figure 16). [Table 7]
[0400] TG / DSC analysis of Form 3 identified a 14.9% mass loss (0.95 equivalents of THF) associated with a broad endothermic event with an initiation at 74.0°C and a peak at 125.6°C, likely due to desolvation of the substance. Subsequently, a broad endothermic event similar to Form 1 occurred, associated with sample melting, with an initiation at 183.7°C and a peak at 197.8°C, including a 27.9% associated weight loss (1.6 equivalents of acetic acid). This suggests the possibility of desolvation in Form 1 (Figures 17-20, 25). PLM analysis did not reveal clear particle morphology, but the presence of birefringence was observed. Aggregation was also visualized (Figure 21). The FT-IR spectrum is shown in Figure 22. The presence of water was detected at 3255.68 cm⁻¹. -1The peaks observed were those at the specified point (list of peaks shown in Table 7). [Table 8] Form 4
[0401] The XRPD diffractogram for form 4 is shown in Figure 26. Form 5
[0402] Form 5 was recovered from amorphous compound A diacetate in thermally circulating NMP. The XRPD diffractogram is shown in Figure 27, along with a list of peaks shown in Table 8. 1 In 1H NMR, 2.6 equivalents of NMP were found at 2.70 ppm with a 7.72H CH3 peak. Less than 0.1 equivalents of 1,4-dioxane and THF, 0.1 equivalents of DMA, and 0.2 equivalents of hexane were also present in the NMR spectrum due to solvent cross-contamination during drying the solid in a vacuum oven. The substance was consistent with the structure of compound A diacetate, which corresponds to the CH3 of acetic acid and has a 6.00H peak at 1.74 ppm (Figure 28). [Table 9]
[0403] TG / DSC analysis identified an 18.2% mass loss (0.84 equivalents of NMP) associated with a small endothermic event with an initiation at 145.4°C and a peak at 161.0°C. Subsequently, a large endothermic event corresponding to sample melting occurred, with an initiation at 190.2°C and a peak at 204.1°C, including an associated 24.4% mass loss (1.4 equivalents of acetic acid). This indicates desolvation of form 1 (Figure 29). PLM analysis did not reveal any clear morphology, but birefringent particles and aggregates were present (Figure 30). FT-IR showed: 1 The structure of compound A diacetate was consistent with the expected structure based on 1H NMR data (Figure 31). form 6
[0404] Form 6 was the amorphous compound A diacetate after thermal cycling and isolation in toluene. The XRPD diffractogram is shown in Figure 32, along with a list of peaks shown in Table 9. 1 ¹H NMR revealed 2.2 equivalents of toluene present in the sample, with a 6.5H peak at 2.30 ppm. Less than 0.1 equivalents of dioxane and IPA, as well as 0.1 equivalents of DMA, NMP, and hexane, were also present in the NMR spectrum (Figure 33). The substance was consistent with the structure of compound A diacetate, with a 6.00H peak at 1.74 ppm. [Table 10]
[0405] TG / DSC analysis identified a mild 13.6% mass loss (0.7 equivalents of toluene) associated with a broad endothermic event with a peak at 113.6°C and an initiation at 58.2°C, likely corresponding to desolvation. Subsequently, sample melting occurred, with a peak at 203.9°C and an initiation at 190.6°C, including a related 21.2% mass loss (1.2 equivalents of acetic acid). This indicates desolvation to Form 1 due to a similar melting at 193.1°C (Figure 34). PLM images are shown in Figure 35. Although no distinct morphology was observed, birefringent particles and aggregates were present. The FT-IR spectrum was consistent with the expected diacetate structure (Figure 36). Form 7
[0406] Form 7 was obtained from a substance of amorphous compound A diacetate circulating temperature in acetonitrile and methanol. The XRPD diffractogram is shown in Figure 37, along with a list of peaks shown in Table 10. 1 ¹H NMR analysis revealed no methanol remaining in the sample after drying under vacuum, but 0.1 equivalents of DCM and dioxane, 0.8 equivalents of DMA, 0.2 equivalents of NMP and ethyl acetate, and less than 0.1 equivalents of IPA, toluene, and acetone were all present in the spectrum. The substances were also found to be consistent with the diacetate structure, confirming that no salt disproportionation had occurred (Figure 38). [Table 11]
[0407] TG analysis identified a moderate mass loss of 7.5% preceded by a sharp mass loss of 4.6% (1.2 equivalents of water) associated with a small endothermic event, with an initiation at 147.7°C and a peak at 147.9°C. The sample then melted, with an initiation at 195.1°C and a peak at 213.0°C, including a 26.2% mass loss (1.5 equivalents of acetic acid) corresponding to salt disproportionation (Figure 39). The PLM image is shown in Figure 40 and contains small, highly birefringent visible particles. No distinct crystalline morphology was identified. FT-IR analysis yielded 3263.89 cm⁻¹. -1 This was consistent with the expected diacetate structure, which was accompanied by a clear water peak (Figure 41). A list of FT-IR peaks is shown in Table 11. [Table 12] Form 8
[0408] Form 8 was obtained from amorphous compound A diacetate, which underwent temperature cycling in ethanol and ethyl acetate. The XRPD diffractogram is shown in Figure 42, along with a list of peaks shown in Table 12. 1 The 1H NMR spectrum is shown in Figure 43, confirming the diacetate structure. The large amount of ethanol visualized as a substance was not dried for pre-NMR analysis due to the loss of crystallinity observed upon drying. [Table 13]
[0409] Compound A appears anhydrous by TG / DSC, with no weight loss identified up to a 28.6% mass loss (1.6 equivalents of acetic acid) associated with sample melting, with an initiation at 186.0°C and a peak at 203.7°C (Figures 44-47, 52). PLM images are shown in Figure 48, visualizing small, poorly birefringent particles. The FT-IR spectrum is consistent with the expected diacetate structure and is shown in Figure 49, along with a list of peaks shown in Table 13. [Table 14] Form 9
[0410] Form 9 was recovered after drying Form 2 from water and then evaporating the saturated aqueous solution, indicating the possibility of hydration. The XRPD diffractogram is shown in Figure 53, along with a list of peaks shown in Table 14. 1 ¹H NMR was consistent with the diacetate structure containing less than 0.1 equivalents of dioxane and IPA, as well as 0.1 equivalents of DMA, NMP, and hexane (Figure 54). TG / DSC analysis identified sample melting / salt disproprtion, involving a 30.9% mass loss (1.8 equivalents of acetate) associated with an endothermic event, with an initial 6.7% mass loss (1.7 equivalents of water) at approximately 50°C, likely corresponding to dehydration (Figures 55-58, 63). This indicates that form 9 is immediately dehydrated to form 1. [Table 15]
[0411] PLM analysis identified large, highly birefringent lath-like morphologies with visible aggregation (Figure 59). The FT-IR spectrum was 3232.61 cm⁻¹. -1 Figure 60 shows the expected diacetate structure with water peaks visualized, which is consistent with the FT-IR peaks. A list of FT-IR peaks is shown in Table 15. [Table 16] Form 11
[0412] The XRPD diffractogram for morphology 11 is shown in Figure 64. [Example 5] Secondary polymorph screening
[0413] Crystal forms 3, 8, and 9 were scaled up for further characterization.
[0414] Approximately 1.2 g of compound A diacetate form 1 was weighed and dissolved in 126 mL of water. The solution was gently heated and sonicated to aid dissolution, then filtered in a syringe and equally divided into three Duran vials, yielding approximately 400 mg of the substance per vial. The samples were then frozen at -50°C and lyophilized for 4 days. Subsamples were analyzed by XRPD after lyophilization to confirm successful amorphization. Preparation and Characterization of Form 3
[0415] 25.6 mL of 2-propanol was added to lyophilized compound A diacetate to form a slurry. The slurry was then subjected to temperature cycling between room temperature and 40°C in 4-hour cycles with stirring for approximately 24 hours. The slurry was then filtered, and the isolated solid was collected in a scintillation vial. Subsamples were analyzed by XRPD, and the vial was left uncapped to allow the solid to dry at room temperature for approximately 24 hours. The material was then re-analyzed by XRPD after drying and fully characterized using the following techniques: DVS, PLM, FT-IR, including TG / DSC, DSC, and XRPD analysis after DVS. 1Purity by 1H NMR and HPLC, TG / DSC including TG / DSC followed by XRPD analysis, and 7-day stability assessment (approximately 10 mg of the substance was stored for 1 week at 40°C / 75% RH, 80°C, and ambient light and humidity. The solid was then analyzed by HPLC for XRPD and purity). Thermodynamic solubility in water and pH 7.4 phosphate buffer (approximately 20 mg of the substance was added to 100 μL aliquots of the appropriate medium to form a slurry. The sample was then sealed and stirred at room temperature for approximately 24 hours, followed by centrifugation filtration. The isolated solid was analyzed by XRPD, and the concentration of the mother liquor was determined by HPLC).
[0416] Since it was confirmed by XRPD, the scale-up of Form 3 was successful, and the morphology and crystallinity were maintained when dried at room temperature for approximately 24 hours. TG / DSC analysis confirmed the removal of the solvent from the surface and identified a 11.7% two-step mass loss (0.9 equivalents of IPA) associated with a small endothermic event with an initiation at 129.1°C and a peak at 126.6°C, likely corresponding to desolvation / dehydration. A large mass loss of 29.4% (1.7 equivalents of acetic acid) occurred with a large endothermic event with an initiation at 192.2°C and a peak at 209.8°C, related to salt disproportionation / melting of Form 1 (Figure 17). The large endothermic event was present in the first heat by DSC with an initiation at 120.9°C and a peak at 143.6°C, corresponding to desolvation (Figure 18). Subsequently, no significant thermal events were present during the cooling of the DSC or in the second heat (Figures 19-20).
[0417] Although a clear crystalline morphology was not visualized by PLM analysis, small, highly birefringent particles were present (Figure 21). 1 ¹H NMR revealed 1.4 equivalents of IPA in a sample with an 8.6H peak at 1.04 ppm (Figure 16). The FT-IR spectrum was consistent with the expected diacetate structure, with the water peak at 3257.32 cm⁻¹ in Figure 22. -1 It exists.
[0418] DVS analysis of Form 3 revealed that the substance was converted to Form 9, which was hydrated at 50% RH with a loss of approximately 4 wt.% (loss of 0.3 equivalents of IPA or 1.0 equivalent of water). Form 9 is hygroscopic in DVS containing 8% mass uptake (2.0 equivalents of water) at 90% RH, with dehydration at less than 10% RH (Figure 23). The conversion of Form 3 to Form 9 is evident in the DVS dynamics plot, as the sample weight stabilizes over time at the 50-60% RH stage (Figure 24). The solid recovered after DVS analysis was analyzed by XRPD to confirm the conversion to Form 9.
[0419] The results of the 1-week stability evaluation of Form 3 are summarized in Table 16. The substance under normal temperature and humidity conditions, at 40°C / 75% RH, showed conversion to Form 1 after 1 week, but no change was observed at 80°C after 1 week. The substance was heated to 150°C using TG / DSC, resulting in an 11.0% weight loss (0.8 equivalents of IPA or 3.2 equivalents of water) with associated endothermic events starting at 132.5°C and peaking at 137.9°C (Figure 25), confirming desolvation. The recovered solid was then analyzed by XRPD to confirm conversion to Form 1.
[0420] Form 3 was the solvated form of compound A diacetate, which readily converts to thermodynamically stable form 1 upon desolvation, as observed in the 1-week stability assessment and desolvation / XRPD test. This also converts to hydrated form 9 under high humidity conditions, as observed in the DVS analysis.
[0421] In summary, Form 3 was solvated, and TG / DSC identified a mass loss of 11.7% (0.9 equivalents of IPA or 3.0 equivalents of water) with melting at 192.2°C. 11H NMR identified 1.4 equivalents of IPA. DSC identified an endothermic event at 120.9°C, corresponding to desolvation. PLM analysis of the substance did not reveal a clear morphology, but visualized small, highly birefringent particles. It was found that form 3 was converted to form 1 during desolvation above 150°C. Similarly, it was found that the substance converted to form 1 during storage at room temperature and humidity at 40°C / 75% RH. DVS analysis (Figures 23-24) showed that the substance converted to form 9 (dihydrate) at 50% RH. Therefore, form 3 appears to be a low-risk solvate as it is easily converted to form 1. Preparation and Characterization of Morphology 8
[0422] Form 8 was scaled up using the following procedure with amorphous input material prepared by the process described above. 27.2 mL of ethanol was added to lyophilized compound A diacetate to form a slurry. The slurry was then circulated between room temperature and 40°C in 4-hour cycles with stirring for approximately 24 hours. The slurry was then filtered through Buchner filtration, and the isolated solid was collected in a scintillation vial. After analyzing the subsamples with XRPD, the XRPD plates were placed in an oven at 40°C for 1 hour, and the samples were re-analyzed with XRPD to check for loss of crystallinity upon high-temperature drying. The vials were left uncapped to allow the solid to dry at room temperature for approximately 24 hours, and then re-analyzed with XRPD. The solid was characterized using the same technique as used in Form 3 above.
[0423] The scale-up of Form 8 was successful, and the form was maintained after drying at room temperature for approximately 24 hours. The bulk material was not dried at high temperatures, as a significant loss of crystallinity was observed when the solid was dried on an XRPD plate at 40°C for 1 hour. TG analysis identified a moderate 6.7% weight loss (0.7 equivalents of ethanol) from the onset of exothermic reactions. Subsequently, a large endothermic event occurred in association with a further 30.6% weight loss, corresponding to salt disproportionation / melting, with an onset at 196.0°C and a peak at 218.5°C (Figure 44). Two broad endothermic events were present with the first heat by DSC due to the moderate drying of the material. The first event had an onset at 32.5°C and a peak at 55.6°C, and the second event had an onset at 78.8°C and a peak at 103.2°C (Figure 45). Subsequently, no significant thermal events were present with the cooling of the DSC or with the second heat (Figures 46-47).
[0424] Although a clear crystalline morphology was not visualized by PLM analysis, small, highly birefringent particles were present (Figure 48). 1 ¹H NMR confirmed the diacetate structure, and 1.8 equivalents of ethanol were found in a sample with a 5.51H peak at 1.06 ppm (Figure 43). The FT-IR spectrum was consistent with the expected structure. The shoulder was approximately 3000 cm². -1 This can be seen across a wide range of peaks, which may be due to water peaks (Figure 49).
[0425] DVS analysis of the substance in form 8 revealed that the substance desolvated and was converted to form 1 at 50% RH via a loss of 8.2 wt.% (0.9 equivalents of ethanol), as seen in the isotherm plot in Figure 50. The substance in form 1 then exhibited slight hygroscopicity with a 1.8% mass increase at 90% RH (consistent with the initial characterization). The morphological change is evident in the dynamics plot in Figure 51, which shows the sample weight that takes considerable time to stabilize initially before proceeding rapidly through the DVS cycle after conversion to form 1. XRPD after DVS confirmed the conversion of form 8 to form 1.
[0426] The results of the one-week stability assessment are summarized in Table 16. Similar to the substance in Form 3, the solid in Form 8 underwent conversion to Form 1 during storage at room temperature and humidity, at 40°C / 75% RH. No change in form was observed during storage at 80°C, although a significant loss of crystallinity was observed. The substance in Form 8 was heated to 150°C before XRPD analysis. TG / DSC identified a two-step mass loss of 2.3% (0.2 equivalents of ethanol or 0.6 equivalents of water) followed by 8.6% (1.0 equivalent of ethanol or 2.2 equivalents of water), accompanied by two related endothermic events at 34.2°C and 67.0°C (Figure 52). XRPD analysis of the recovered solid revealed a substance with significantly reduced crystallinity, but no conversion to Form 1 was observed during desolvation with Form 3.
[0427] Based on the results obtained, Form 8 appears to be a metastable solvated form of compound A diacetate that readily converts to Form 1 during a one-week stability assessment and DVS analysis under high humidity and ambient conditions. Upon drying, the substance becomes less crystalline but does not convert to Form 1.
[0428] In summary, form 8 was also found to be a solvated form of the diacetate, and TG / DSC identified a 6.7% mass loss (0.7 equivalents of ethanol or 1.7 equivalents of water) with melting at 196.0°C. 1 1H NMR also identified 1.8 equivalents of ethanol present in the sample. Two broad endothermic reactions were observed on DSC at 32.5°C and 78.8°C, corresponding to the desolvation of the sample. No distinct morphology was present on PLM, but small, highly birefringent particles were visualized. Drying the substance to 150°C did not convert this solvate to form 1. However, the substance was converted to form 1 during storage at 40°C / 75% RH and 50% RH during the DVS cycle (Figures 50-51). Partial conversion to form 1 was also observed when storing the substance at room temperature and humidity. Preparation and Characterization of Morphology 9
[0429] Form 9 was scaled up using the following procedure with the amorphous input material prepared by the process described above. 3.2 mL of water was added to the lyophilized compound A diacetate to form a slurry. The slurry was then circulated between room temperature and 40°C in 4-hour cycles with stirring for approximately 24 hours. The slurry was then filtered by centrifugation, and the isolated solid was collected in a scintillation vial and analyzed by XRPD. The saturated mother liquor was allowed to stand at room temperature and evaporated. Subsamples were analyzed by XRPD after evaporation, and the solid was dried in a 40°C oven for approximately 24 hours and then re-analyzed by XRPD. The solid was characterized using the same technique as used in Forms 3 and 8.
[0430] In the thermal circulation of amorphous compound A diacetate in water, we successfully produced form 2 (consistent with primary polymorph screening), which is converted to form 9 when dried at 40°C. Evaporation of the saturated mother liquor solution yielded form 2, which was successfully dried again to form 9 at 40°C. TG analysis identified a combined initial mass loss of 9.4% (0.3 equivalents of water followed by 2.3 equivalents of water) associated with an endothermic event with an initiation at 55.6°C and a peak at 74.2°C, likely due to dehydration. A small exothermic event occurred before the disproportionation of the salt, with an initiation at 146.7°C and a peak at 156.1°C. Subsequently, a 31.7% weight loss (2.1 equivalents of acetate) occurred with a large endothermic event corresponding to the disproportionation of the salt, with an initiation at 194.9°C and a peak at 214.2°C (Figure 55). In the first heat phase of the DSC, a large endothermic event was identified, beginning at 88.8°C and including a shoulder peak at 98.0°C, with a peak at 88.9°C (Figure 56). Subsequently, no significant thermal events were observed during the cooling of the DSC or in the second heat phase (Figures 57-58).
[0431] 1 The 1H NMR spectrum is shown in Figure 54. The spectrum was consistent with the diacetate structure containing the identified significant water content. PLM analysis identified a large, highly birefringent rod-like morphology (Figure 59). The FTIR spectrum was obtained at approximately 3000 cm⁻¹. -1The structure was consistent with the expected diacetate structure, accompanied by a water peak hidden beneath a broad peak due to the stretching of OH groups (Figure 60).
[0432] The DVS isotherm plot is shown in Figure 61. The substance underwent a transformation to form 2 in the first adsorption cycle at 80% RH, involving a 5.2 wt.% increase (1.4 equivalents of water), and then transformed back to form 9 at 50% RH. Form 9 is then stable until dehydrated at less than 10% RH, with a 7.3 wt.% loss (2.0 equivalents of water). The dynamics plot shows that the sample weight stabilizes longer at the 80–90% RH stage, but the substance transforms from form 9 back to form 2 (Figure 62). XRPD analysis of the recovered solid revealed a sample that was a mixture of phases, with a peak corresponding to form 9 and a new peak that did not correspond to the other peaks observed. VHXRPD confirmed that the solid in form 9 was transformed back to form 2 at 90% RH, but when the substance was dried at 0% RH, the substance became poorly crystalline and did not transform back to form 9 when the humidity increased to 80% RH.
[0433] The results of the one-week stability evaluation are shown in Table 16. Form 9 remained unchanged in XRPD after storage at room temperature and humidity at 40°C / 75% RH, but conversion to Form 1 was observed when stored at 80°C. The material was dried by TG / DSC, and an 8.3% mass loss (2.1 equivalents of water) associated with a large and broad endothermic event with an initiation at 60.7°C and a peak at 81.6°C was identified (Figure 63). XRPD analysis of the recovered solid revealed a poorly crystalline material with several small peaks corresponding to Form 1 and several new peaks.
[0434] Based on the results obtained, form 9 appears to be a dihydrate that converts to form 2 of the tetrahydrate under high humidity (RH over 80%). The substance showed conversion to form 1 when stored at 80°C for one week, but it does not appear to dehydrate to form 1 when dried.
[0435] In summary, morphology 9 was isolated from water and exhibited good crystallinity according to XRPD analysis. Similarly, PLM analysis revealed a large, highly birefringent rod-like morphology. The material was found to be hydrated, and TG / DSC showed a two-step mass loss at 1.3% (0.3 equivalents of water) followed by 8.1% (2.3 equivalents of water) and melting at 194.9°C. DSC identified a sharp endothermic event corresponding to dehydration at 88.8°C. The material in morphology 9 was observed to be converted to morphology 2 at 80% RH in a DVS cycle and converted back to morphology 9 at 50% RH (Figures 61-62). This was confirmed by VH-XRPD. VH-XRPD analysis revealed dehydration of morphology 9 at less than 10% RH, the material became poorly crystallinity, and morphology 1 could not be obtained. When humidity increased from 0% RH, morphology 9 did not reformulate even at 80% RH for 1 hour.
[0436] A summary of further characterizations of forms 1, 3, 8, and 9 is shown in Table 16 below. [Table 17] Thermodynamic evaluation of solubility
[0437] The results of the thermodynamic solubility tests are summarized in Table 17. In the whole-solid slurry prepared in water, XRPD analysis revealed that it was amorphous after maturation. Form 1 was found to be the most soluble form at 49.5 mg / mL, while Form 3 was the least soluble at 38.5 mg / mL. In the whole-solid slurry prepared in pH 7.4 phosphate buffer, XRPD analysis revealed a new, less crystalline form shown as Form 12 (Figure 65). The substance appears to be highly insoluble in phosphate buffer, with all forms having a solubility of 0.3 mg / mL except for Form 2, which had a solubility of 0.2 mg / mL. [Table 18] Competitive slurry testing
[0438] Approximately 5 mg of compound A diacetate forms 1, 3, 8, and 9 were combined in an 8 × 4 mL vial. A suitable solvent was added to form a slurry, and the sample was shaken at room temperature or 60°C for approximately 48 hours. The sample was then removed from the shaker and filtered by centrifugation. The isolated solid was analyzed by XRPD and found to contain a mixture of forms. The solid was recovered from the XRPD plate, returned, and shaken for a further 3 days as before, and then re-analyzed by XRPD.
[0439] The results of the initial competitive slurry test are summarized in Table 18. Except for the ethanol sample, which had been converted to a mixture of Forms 1 and 8, all samples remained as a mixture of polymorphs of all input compound A diacetate after approximately 48 hours of stirring. After a further 72 hours of stirring, the ethanol in the surrounding sample had been converted to Form 8, while all other samples remained unchanged. [Table 19]
[0440] Approximately 5 mg of compound A diacetate forms 1, 3, 8, and 9 were weighed into 6 × 4 mL vials, and approximately 10 mg of forms 1 and 9 were weighed into 3 × 2 mL vials. A suitable solvent was then added to form a slurry, the samples were sealed with Parafilm, and shaken at room temperature, 40°C, or 60°C for approximately 9 days. After stirring for 5 and 9 days, the solids were analyzed by XRPD.
[0441] The results of additional competitive slurry tests are summarized in Table 19. After stirring for 9 days, the majority of the tests remained as mixtures, except for 95% IPA and 5% water, which returned to Form 1, and 85% IPA and 15% water, which also returned to Form 1. [Table 20] Reactivity precipitation test
[0442] Approximately 500 mg of compound A diacetate was weighed and dissolved in 20 mL of water. The solution was added to a separatory funnel, and 20 mL of saturated sodium bicarbonate solution was added. Precipitation was immediately observed. The slurry was washed with 3 × 40 mL of ethyl acetate, and the organic phase (containing the precipitate) was collected. This slurry was filtered using a Buchner filter, and the isolated solid was dried in a vacuum oven at 40°C for approximately 2 hours. 1 Analysis was performed using 1H NMR.
[0443] Approximately 20 mg of free base of compound A was weighed into a 13 × 1.5 mL vial, and an appropriate volume of solvent was added to form a slurry. Next, 2.05 equivalents of acetic acid were added to the slurry, the sample was sealed with Parafilm, and placed in an incubator shaker, where the temperature was circulated between room temperature and 40°C in 4-hour cycles while stirring for approximately 48 hours. Then, the sample was removed from the shaker, the observations were recorded, and the slurry was centrifuged and filtered. After analyzing the isolated solid with XRPD, the XRPD plate was dried in an oven at 40°C for approximately 72 hours, and the sample was re-analyzed to check for any changes in morphology. If a new morphology was obtained, the solid was subjected to TG / DSC, as far as the amount of substance allowed. 1 Analysis was performed using 1H NMR, PLM, and FT-IR.
[0444] The results of the reactive precipitation tests are summarized in Table 20. One novel diffractogram was identified, shown as Form 13 from NMP and as Form 3 from THF when dried. Most of the solvent systems yielded predictable forms from the primary polymorph screening. The XRPD diffractogram of Form 13 is shown in Figure 66. [Table 21] [Example 11] Preparation of a formulation containing form 1 of compound A
[0445] Batches of 30 mg and 120 mg strength capsules containing form 1 of compound A diacetate were prepared. The compositions of the 30 mg and 120 mg capsules are described in Table 21 below. The 30 mg strength capsules were filled into size 2 HPMC capsules with a white body and a flesh-colored cap. The 120 mg strength capsules were filled into size 0 Swedish orange capsules. [Table 22]
[0446] The capsules were prepared by the process described in Scheme 2 below. [ka]
[0447] First, the required amounts of pre-sieved silicified microcrystalline cellulose (SMCC), lactose, and colloidal silicon dioxide were weighed into a PE bag and manually mixed for approximately 3 minutes. The mixture was then sieved through a 60-mesh screen. Next, form 1 of compound A diacetate was added to the mixture, and the mixture was manually blended for approximately 3 minutes. The mixture was then sampled for blend uniformity (targeting 95–100% of the indicated amount, with a %RSD of less than 5.0%). Next, magnesium stearate was added, and the mixture was manually blended for approximately 2 minutes. The capsule shells were then manually filled with the blend. Weight checks were then performed (n=60 capsules). For 30 mg capsules, the target weight was 214 ± 7.62 mg. For 120 mg capsules, the target weight was 422 ± 16.4 mg. The capsules were then packaged in HDPE bottles with a heat-conductive seal and a child-safe cap.
