Abstract
Description
Background Art
[0001] The overwhelming majority of small molecule drugs act by binding to functionally important pockets on target proteins, thereby controlling the activity of the protein. For example, cholesterol-lowering agents known as statins bind to the enzyme active site of HMG-CoA reductase, thereby preventing the enzyme from engaging its substrate. The fact that many such drug / target interaction pairs are known has misled some people into believing that, given a reasonable amount of time, effort, and resources, small molecule modulators can be discovered for most, if not all, proteins. This is far from the truth. Current estimates suggest that only about 10% of all human proteins are targetable by small molecules. The other 90% are currently considered refractory or intractable to the above-described small molecule drug discovery. Such targets are generally referred to as "undruggable." These undruggable targets include a vast and largely untapped reservoir of pharmaceutically important human proteins. Therefore, there is much interest in discovering new molecular modalities that can control the function of such undruggable targets.
[0002] Ras proteins (K-Ras, H-Ras, and N-Ras) play an essential role in various human cancers and, therefore, have been well established in the literature as suitable targets for anticancer therapy. In fact, mutations in Ras proteins account for approximately 30% of all human cancers in the United States, and many of these are lethal. Dysregulation of Ras proteins due to mutant activation, overexpression, or upstream activation is common in human tumors, and mutant activation of Ras is frequently found in human cancers. For example, mutant activation of codon 12 in the Ras protein inhibits both the GAP-dependent and intrinsic hydrolysis rates of GTP, significantly skewing the population of Ras mutant proteins into the "on" (GTP-bound) state (Ras(ON)), and functions by leading to oncogenic MAPK signaling. In particular, Ras exhibits picomolar affinity for GTP and allows Ras to be activated even in the presence of low concentrations of this nucleotide. Mutations at codon 13 of Ras (e.g., G13C) and at codon 61 (e.g., Q61K) also confer oncogenic activity in some cancers.
[0003] In the past few decades, despite extensive drug discovery efforts against Ras, only two drugs targeting Ras have been approved in the United States, both of which target K-Ras G12C sotorasib and adagrasib. Further efforts are needed to identify additional pharmaceuticals for cancers driven by various Ras mutations. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0054] Pharmaceutical composition and method of use The crystalline form of the compound related to the present invention is a Ras inhibitor, which is useful in cancer treatment. Accordingly, one embodiment of the present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising the crystalline form of the present invention and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient, as well as a method for preparing such a composition using the compound of the present invention.
[0055] As used herein, the term “pharmaceutical composition” refers to a compound or crystalline form, such as the crystalline compound of the present invention, formulated with pharmaceutically acceptable excipients. In some embodiments, the crystalline form (plural) of the compound is present in the pharmaceutical composition in a unit dose appropriate for administration in a therapeutic regimen that exhibits a statistically significant probability of achieving a predetermined therapeutic effect when administered to the relevant population. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition may be specifically formulated for administration in solid or liquid form, and is suitable for: oral administration, e.g., oral tablets (aqueous or nonaqueous solutions or suspensions), tablets, e.g., buccal, sublingual, and those targeted for intracellular absorption, boluses, powders, granules, and pastes for application to the tongue; parenteral administration, e.g., by subcutaneous, intramuscular, intravenous, or epidural injection, e.g., as sterile solutions or suspensions, or as sustained-release formulations; topical application, e.g., as creams, ointments, or controlled-release patches or sprays applied to the skin, lungs, or oral cavity; vaginal or rectal administration, e.g., as pessaries, creams, or foams; sublingual administration; intraocular administration; transdermal administration; or suitable for nasal administration, intrapulmonary administration, and administration to other mucosal surfaces.
[0056] As used herein, “pharmaceutically acceptable excipients” refers to any inert component (e.g., a vehicle capable of suspending or dissolving an active compound) that is non-toxic and non-inflammatory in the subject matter. Typical excipients include, for example, antifouling agents, antioxidants, binders, coatings, compression aids, disintegrants, dyes (colorants), emollients, emulsifiers, fillers (diluents), film-forming agents or coatings, flavoring agents, fragrances, lubricants (flow enhancers), preservatives, printing inks, adsorbents, suspending agents or dispersants, sweeteners, or hydrating water. Examples of excipients include, but are not limited to, optionally substituted butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), calcium carbonate, dibasic calcium phosphate, calcium stearate, croscarmellose, cross-linked polyvinylpyrrolidone, citric acid, crospovidone, cysteine, ethylcellulose, gelatin, optionally substituted hydroxypropylcellulose, optionally substituted hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, lactose, magnesium stearate, maltitol, mannitol, methionine, methylcellulose, methylparaben, microcrystalline cellulose, polyethylene glycol, polyvinylpyrrolidone, povidone, pregelatinized starch, propylparaben, retinyl palmitate, shellac, silicon dioxide, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, sodium citrate, sodium starch glycolic acid, sorbitol, starch (corn), stearic acid, sucrose, talc, titanium dioxide, vitamin A, vitamin E, vitamin C, and xylitol. Those skilled in the art are familiar with a wide variety of drugs and materials useful as excipients.See, for example, Ansel, et al., Ansel's Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms and Drug Delivery Systems. Philadelphia: Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins, 2004; Gennaro, et al., Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy. Philadelphia: Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins, 2000; and Rowe, Handbook of Pharmaceutical Excipients. Chicago, Pharmaceutical Press, 2005. In some embodiments, the composition comprises at least two different pharmaceutically acceptable excipients.
[0057] As used herein, the term “subject” refers to any member of the animal kingdom. In some embodiments, “subject” refers to a human at any stage of development. In some embodiments, “subject” refers to a human patient. In some embodiments, “subject” refers to a non-human animal. In some embodiments, the non-human animal is a mammal (e.g., rodents, mice, rats, rabbits, monkeys, dogs, cats, sheep, cattle, primates, or pigs). In some embodiments, subjects may be mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, or insects, but are not limited to these. In some embodiments, subjects may be transgenic animals, genetically modified animals, or clones.
[0058] As used herein, the term “dosage form” refers to a physically distinct unit of a compound (e.g., a crystalline compound of the present invention) for administration to a subject. Each unit contains a predetermined amount of the compound. In some embodiments, such an amount is a unit dose (or its entire fraction) appropriate for administration to a relevant population according to an administration regimen (i.e., using a therapeutic administration regimen) that has been determined to correlate with a desired or beneficial outcome. Those skilled in the art will understand that the total amount of a therapeutic composition or compound administered to a particular subject may be determined by one or more attending physicians and may involve administration of multiple dosage forms.
[0059] As used herein, the term “dosage regimen” refers to a set of unit doses (usually two or more) administered individually to a subject, usually separated by a period of time. In some embodiments, a given therapeutic compound (e.g., a crystalline compound of the present invention) has a recommended dosage regimen, which may comprise one or more doses. In some embodiments, the dosage regimen comprises multiple doses, each separated from the others by time intervals of the same length; in some embodiments, the dosage regimen comprises multiple doses, comprising at least two different time intervals separating the individual doses. In some embodiments, all doses within the dosage regimen are identical unit doses. In some embodiments, different doses within the dosage regimen are different amounts. In some embodiments, the dosage regimen comprises a first dose at a first dose, followed by one or more further doses at a second dose different from the first dose. In some embodiments, the dosage regimen comprises a first dose at a first dose, followed by one or more further doses at a second dose that is the same as the first dose. In some embodiments, the administration regimen correlates with a desired or beneficial outcome when administered across the relevant population (i.e., it is a therapeutic administration regimen).
[0060] A "treatment regimen" refers to a dosing regimen across relevant populations that correlates with a desired or beneficial therapeutic outcome. The term “treatment” (and additionally, “to treat” or “to treat”), in its broadest sense, refers to any administration of a substance (e.g., a crystalline compound of the present invention) that partially or completely alleviates, improves, reduces, inhibits, delays the onset, reduces the severity, or reduces the occurrence of one or more symptoms, characteristics, or causes of a particular disease, disorder, or condition. In some embodiments, such treatment may be administered to subjects who show no signs of the relevant disease, disorder, or condition, or to subjects who show only the initial signs of the disease, disorder, or condition. Alternatively, or in addition, in some embodiments, such treatment may be administered to subjects who show established signs of one or more of the relevant diseases, disorders, or conditions. In some embodiments, treatment may be administered to subjects diagnosed with suffering from the relevant disease, disorder, or condition. In some embodiments, treatment may be administered to subjects known to have one or more susceptibility factors that are statistically correlated with an increased risk of developing the relevant disease, disorder, or condition.
[0061] The term “therapeutic dose” means a quantity sufficient to treat a disease, disorder, or condition when administered to a population suffering from or suspected of having a disease, disorder, or condition, according to a therapeutic dosing regimen. In some embodiments, a therapeutic dose is a quantity that reduces the onset or severity of one or more symptoms of a disease, disorder, or condition, or delays the onset of one or more symptoms of a disease, disorder, or condition. Those skilled in the art will understand that the term “therapeutic dose” does not actually require that successful treatment be achieved in a particular individual. Rather, a therapeutic dose can be a quantity that, when administered to patients requiring such treatment, produces a specific desired pharmacological response in a significant number of subjects. It is specifically understood that a particular subject may actually be “refractory” to the “therapeutic dose.” In some embodiments, a reference to a therapeutic dose may refer to a quantity measured in one or more specific tissues (e.g., tissues affected by the disease, disorder, or condition) or fluids (e.g., blood, saliva, serum, sweat, tears, urine). Those skilled in the art will understand that in some embodiments, the therapeutically effective dose may be formulated or administered as a single dose. In some embodiments, the therapeutically effective dose may be formulated or administered in multiple doses, for example, as part of an administration regimen.
[0062] For use as a therapeutic agent, the crystalline forms of the compounds disclosed herein can be formulated as pharmaceutical or veterinary compositions. Depending on the target being treated, the method of administration, and the type of treatment desired, e.g., prevention, prophylaxis, or therapeutic agent, the compounds are formulated in a manner consistent with these parameters. A summary of such techniques can be found in Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, 21 stThis information can be found in Edition, Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, (2005); and Encyclopedia of Pharmaceutical Technology, eds. J. Swarbrick and JCBoylan, 1988–1999, Marcel Dekker, New York, each of which is incorporated herein by reference.
[0063] Each composition may be prepared according to conventional mixing, granulation, or coating methods, and the pharmaceutical composition may contain 0.1% to 99%, 5% to 90%, or 1% to 20% (by weight or volume) of the crystalline form of the compound of the present invention. In some embodiments, the crystalline forms of the compounds described herein may be present in total at 1 to 95% by weight of the total weight of a composition such as a pharmaceutical composition.
[0064] The composition can be provided in dosage forms suitable for intra-articular, oral, parenteral (e.g., intravenous, intramuscular), rectal, cutaneous, subcutaneous, topical, transdermal, sublingual, transnasal, intravaginal, intrabladderal, intraurethral, intrathecal, epidural, transaural, or intraocular administration, or for injection, inhalation, or direct contact with the nasal, genitourinary, reproductive, or oral mucosa. Accordingly, the pharmaceutical composition may be in the form of, for example, tablets, capsules, pills, powders, granules, suspensions, emulsions, solutions, gels including hydrogels, pastes, ointments, creams, plasters, oral medications, infiltration delivery devices, suppositories, enemas, injections, implants, sprays, preparations suitable for iontophoresis delivery, or aerosols. The composition may be formulated according to conventional pharmaceutical regulations.
[0065] As used herein, the term “administration” means the administration of a composition (e.g., a crystalline form of compound A, or a preparation containing a crystalline form of compound A as described herein) to a subject or system. Administration to an animal subject (e.g., human) may be by any suitable route. For example, in some embodiments, administration may be bronchial (including bronchial infusion), cheek, enteral, interdermal, intra-arterial, intradermal, intragastric, intramedullary, intramuscular, transnasal, intraperitoneal, intrathecal, intravenous, intraventricular, mucosal, nasal, oral, rectal, subcutaneous, sublingual, topical, intratracheal (including intratracheal infusion), transdermal, vaginal, or intravitreous.
[0066] The formulations can be prepared in a manner suitable for systemic administration or local or local administration. Systemic formulations may be designed for injection (e.g., intramuscular, intravenous, or subcutaneous injection), or they may be prepared for transdermal, transmucosal, or oral administration. The formulations generally contain diluents, and optionally adjuvants, buffers, and preservatives. The crystalline form of the compound can also be administered in liposome compositions or as microemulsions.
[0067] For injection, formulations can be prepared in conventional forms, such as a solution or suspension, or as a solid suitable for solution or suspension in liquid before injection, or as an emulsion. Suitable excipients include, for example, water, physiological saline, dextrose, and glycerol. Such compositions may also contain certain amounts of non-toxic auxiliary substances (e.g., wetting agents or emulsifiers), pH buffers, such as sodium acetate and sorbitan monolaurate.
[0068] Various sustained-release systems for drugs have also been devised. See, for example, U.S. Patent No. 5,624,677. Systemic administration may also involve relatively non-invasive methods, such as suppositories, transdermal patches, transmucosal delivery, and intranasal administration. Oral administration is also suitable for the compounds of the present invention. Preferred forms, as understood in the art, include syrups, capsules, and tablets.
[0069] The crystalline forms of each compound described herein can be formulated in various ways known in the art. For example, the first and second agents of a combination therapy can be formulated together or separately. Other modalities of combination therapy are described herein.
[0070] Individually formulated drugs can be packaged together as a kit. Non-limiting examples include, but are not limited to, kits containing two pills, pills and powder, suppositories and liquids in vials, or two topical creams. A kit may include optional components that facilitate the administration of a unit dose to a subject, such as vials for reconstituting powder forms, syringes for injection, customized intravenous delivery systems, or inhalers. In addition, a unit dose kit may include instructions for preparation or administration of the composition. A kit may be manufactured as a single-use unit dose for one subject, or as a multi-use unit dose for a specific subject (where the potency of individual compounds may change at a constant dose or as treatment progresses); or a kit may contain multi-use doses suitable for administration to multiple subjects ("bulk packaging"). The components of the kit can be assembled into cartons, blister packs, bottles, tubes, etc.
[0071] Preparations for oral use include tablets containing the active ingredient(s) in a mixture with pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic excipients. These excipients may include, for example, inert diluents or fillers (e.g., sucrose, sorbitol, sugars, mannitol, microcrystalline cellulose, starch containing potato starch, calcium carbonate, sodium chloride, lactose, calcium phosphate, calcium sulfate, or sodium phosphate); granulators and disintegrants (e.g., cellulose derivatives containing microcrystalline cellulose, starch containing potato starch, croscarmellose sodium, alginate, or arginine); binders (e.g., sucrose, glucose, sorbitol, acacia, arginine, sodium alginate, gelatin, starch, pregelatinized starch, microcrystalline cellulose, aluminum magnesium silicate, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, methylcellulose, optionally substituted hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, ethylcellulose, polyvinylpyrrolidone, or polyethylene glycol); as well as smoothers, lubricants, and anti-adhesives (e.g., magnesium stearate, zinc stearate, stearic acid, silica, hydrogenated vegetable oil, or talc). Other pharmaceutically acceptable excipients may include colorants, flavoring agents, plasticizers, humectants, buffering agents, and the like.
[0072] Two or more compounds can be mixed or dispensed in a tablet, capsule, or other vehicle. In one example, the first compound is contained inside the tablet, the second compound is on the outside, and a substantial portion of the second compound is released before the release of the first crystalline compound.
[0073] Formulations for oral use may be provided as chewable tablets, or as hard gelatin capsules in which the active ingredient is mixed with an inert solid diluent (e.g., potato starch, lactose, microcrystalline cellulose, calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate, or kaolin), or as soft gelatin capsules in which the active ingredient is mixed with water or an oily medium (e.g., peanut oil, liquid paraffin, or olive oil). Powders, granules, and pellets can be prepared using the above-mentioned components below tablets and capsules by conventional methods, for example, using a mixer, fluidized bed apparatus, or spray dryer.
[0074] Dissolution or diffusion-controlled release can be achieved by appropriate coatings for tablet, capsule, pellet, or granule formation of crystalline compounds, or by incorporating crystalline compounds into an appropriate matrix. Controlled release coatings may include one or more of the above-mentioned coating materials, or shellac, beeswax, glycowax, castor wax, carnauba wax, stearyl alcohol, glyceryl monostearate, glyceryl distearate, glycerol palmitostearate, ethylcellulose, acrylic resin, dl-polylactic acid, cellulose acetate / butyrate, polyvinyl chloride, polyvinyl acetate, vinylpyrrolidone, polyethylene, polymethacrylate, methyl methacrylate, 2-(optionally substituted) hydroxyl methacrylate, methacrylate hydrogel, 1,3-butylene glycol, ethylene glycol methacrylate, or polyethylene glycol. In sustained-release matrix formulations, examples of matrix materials include hydrated methylcellulose, carnauba wax and stearyl alcohol, Carbopol 934, silicone, glyceryl tristearate, methyl acrylate-methyl methacrylate, polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene, or halogenated fluorocarbons.
[0075] Examples of crystalline forms of the compounds of the present invention and liquid forms that can be incorporated for oral administration of compositions include aqueous solutions, suitably flavored syrups, aqueous or oily suspensions, and emulsions flavored with edible oils such as cottonseed oil, sesame oil, coconut oil, or peanut oil, as well as elixirs and similar pharmaceutical vehicles.
[0076] Generally, when administered to humans, the oral dose of any of the crystalline compounds of the present invention depends on the properties of the crystalline compound and can be easily determined by those skilled in the art. The dose may be, for example, 0.001 mg to 2000 mg / day, 1 mg to 1000 mg / day, 5 mg to 500 mg / day, 100 mg to 1500 mg / day, 500 mg to 1500 mg / day, 500 mg to 2000 mg / day, or any range variable therefrom. In some embodiments, the dose may be 10 mg per day. In some embodiments, the dose may be 20 mg per day. In some embodiments, the dose may be 40 mg per day. In some embodiments, the dose may be 80 mg per day. In some embodiments, the dose may be 120 mg per day.
[0077] In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition may further contain additional compounds having antiproliferative activity. Depending on the method of administration, the compounds, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, are formulated into a suitable composition that allows for easy delivery. Each compound of the combination therapy, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, may be formulated in various ways known in the art. For example, the first and second agents of the combination therapy may be formulated together or individually. Preferably, the first and second agents are formulated together for simultaneous or near-simultaneous administration.
[0078] It will be understood that the compounds and pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention can be formulated and used in combination therapy, that is, the compounds and pharmaceutical compositions can be formulated or administered simultaneously with, before, or after one or more other desired therapeutic agents or medical procedures. In specific combinations of treatments (therapeutic agents or procedures) using combination regimens, the suitability of the desired therapeutic agent or procedure and the desired therapeutic effect to be achieved will be taken into consideration. Furthermore, it will be understood that the treatments used may achieve the desired effect for the same disorder, or they may achieve different effects (e.g., control of any adverse effects).
[0079] As described herein, the administration of each drug in combination therapy may be independent, once to four times daily, over a period of one to one year, or even over the lifetime of the patient. Chronic, long-term administration may be indicated.

[0125] MCL-1 inhibitors are known in the art and include, but are not limited to, AMG-176, MIK665, and S63845. The myeloid cell leukemia-1 (MCL-1) protein is one of the major anti-apoptotic members of the B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) protein family. Overexpression of MCL-1 is closely associated with tumor progression and resistance not only to conventional chemotherapy but also to targeted therapies, including BCL-2 inhibitors such as ABT-263.
[0126] In some embodiments, additional therapeutic agents are SHP2 inhibitors. SHP2 inhibitors are known in the art. SHP2 is a non-receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase encoded by the PTPN11 gene, which contributes to several cellular functions, including proliferation, differentiation, maintenance of the cell cycle, and migration. SHP2 has two N-terminal Src homology domains (N-SH2 and C-SH2), a catalytic domain (PTP), and a C-terminal tail. The two SH2 domains regulate the intracellular localization and functional regulation of SHP2. The molecule exists in an inactive, self-inhibitory conformation stabilized by a binding network involving residues from both the N-SH2 and PTP domains. For example, stimulation by cytokines or growth factors acting via receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) results in exposure of the catalytic site, leading to enzymatic activation of SHP2.
[0127] SHP2 is involved in signaling via the RAS mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), JAK-STAT, or phosphoinositol 3-kinase-AKT pathways. Mutations in the PTPN11 gene and subsequent SHP2 mutations have been identified in several human developmental disorders, including Noonan syndrome and Leopard syndrome, as well as in human cancers such as juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia, neuroblastoma, melanoma, acute myeloid leukemia, and breast, lung, and colon cancer. Some of these mutations destabilize the autoinhibitory conformation of SHP2, promoting autoactivation or enhanced growth factor-driven activation of SHP2. Therefore, SHP2 is a very attractive target for the development of novel therapies for the treatment of various diseases, including cancer. SHP2 inhibitors (e.g., RMC-4550 or SHP099) combined with RAS pathway inhibitors (e.g., MEK inhibitors) have been shown to inhibit the growth of several cancer cell lines (e.g., pancreatic, lung, ovarian, and breast cancer) in vitro. Therefore, combination therapy using SHP2 inhibitors and RAS pathway inhibitors can be a common strategy for preventing tumor resistance in a wide range of malignancies.

[0163] Example 1 This example illustrates an exemplary method for preparing a free base of compound A in crystalline form 1, according to one embodiment of the present invention.
[0164] In one method, approximately 50 mg of the free base of amorphous compound A was dissolved in a minimal amount of MeOH at ambient temperature (approximately 20-25°C). Four times the volume of water was quickly added to the resulting clear solution to form a precipitate. The precipitate was isolated by centrifugation at 14,000 rpm using a 0.45 μm nylon membrane filter to obtain crystalline form 1 of the free base of compound A.
[0165] Alternatively, 1 mL of a saturated aqueous solution of compound A at 50°C was added to 1 mL of methanol. The turbid solution was cooled to ambient temperature to obtain crystalline form 1 of the free base of compound A. Crystals deemed to be of sufficient size and quality for single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis were taken and characterized by a crystallographer.
[0166] Alternatively, a mixture of 201.3 mg of amorphous compound A and 2.5 mL of aqueous acetate buffer (pH 4) was stirred at ambient temperature for approximately 7 days. The mixture was centrifuged, the liquid was decanted, and the remaining solid was dried in air to obtain crystalline form 1 of the free base of compound A.
[0167] Alternatively, approximately 50 mg of amorphous compound A was dissolved in a minimal amount of acetone at ambient temperature (e.g., approximately 20-25°C) to form a clear solution. Water was added to this solution until a large amount of solid precipitated (approximately 1:1 (v / v) acetone / water). The solid was recovered by centrifugation at 14,000 rpm through a 0.45 μm nylon membrane filter to obtain crystalline form 1.
[0168] Alternatively, 9.5 g of amorphous compound A was added to 38 mL of MeOH. The mixture was filtered to obtain a clear solution. The clear solution was quickly added to 152 mL of water to form a suspension. Form 1 seeds were added to the suspension, and the mixture was stirred at 25°C for 24 hours, then at 5°C for 24 hours. The solid was recovered by vacuum filtration. After drying the solid at 25°C for about 6 days, 8.2 g of Form 1 was obtained as a white powder (78% yield).
[0169] Alternatively, crystalline form 5 of compound A (see Example 13) spontaneously converts to crystalline form 1 of compound A when crystalline form 5 is exposed to a water activity of 0.4 or higher at 25°C.
[0170] Example 2 This embodiment demonstrates the characterization of crystalline form 1 of compound A free base by X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) according to one embodiment of the present invention.
[0171] XRPD measurements were performed using one of the two RigakuSmart-Lab X-ray diffraction systems. Each was set to a Bragg-Brentano reflection configuration using a line-source X-ray beam. The Bragg-Brentano configuration was controlled by passive divergent and accepting slits, with the sample itself acting as a focusing element of the optical system. Powder samples were prepared in a low-background Si holder using light manual pressure to keep the sample surface flat and at the same height as the reference plane of the sample holder. The specifications of the diffractometer and data acquisition parameters for diffraction system 1 are shown in Table 1. The specifications of the diffractometer and data acquisition parameters for diffraction system 2 are shown in Table 2. The XRPD of crystalline form 1 of compound A as a mixed methanol is shown in Figure 1A. In the essentially pure material of crystalline form 1 as a mixed solvate of methanol and water, a peak can be observed at a refraction angle of 2θ, as shown in Tables 3 and 4 (runs 1 and 2, respectively). The XRPD of crystalline form 1 as a trihydrate solvate is shown in Figure 1B. In the essentially pure material of crystalline form 1 as a trihydrate solvate, a peak can be observed at a refraction angle of 2θ, as shown in Table 5.

[0181] Example 3 This embodiment demonstrates the characterization of crystalline form 1 of the free base of compound A by single-crystal X-ray crystal structure analysis according to one embodiment of the present invention. The X-ray crystal structure of crystalline form 1 (asymmetric unit) of the free base of compound A is shown in Figure 2. This structure was determined to be the free base of compound A as a mixed solvate of methanol and water.
[0182] Select a portion of the free base of compound A and use formula 2(C 44 H 58A pale brown, plate-like crystal with approximately dimensions of 0.42 × 0.19 × 0.04 mm, containing N8O5S)·5.55(H2O)·2.19(CH4O), was mounted randomly oriented on a Mitegen micromesh mount. Preliminary inspection and data acquisition were performed using Cu Kα radiation (λ=1.54178A) on a Bruker AXS D8 Quest CMOS diffractometer equipped with a 4-axis copper stage, I-μ-S microsource X-ray tube, transversely tilted multilayer optics, PhotonIII-C14 single-photon count detector, and Oxford Cryosystems cryogenic apparatus. The initial unit cell was subjected to Apex3 v2019.11-0 at a temperature of 150K. 3 We used [tool name] to make decisions and collect data. We used SAINT V8.40B to integrate the frames. 3 A total of 59,167 reflections were collected, of which 19,822 were unique. Cell constants for data collection were obtained from least-squares refinement using 9,955 reflections in the range of 4.1903 to 78.2402°. The parameters and calculated volumes of the triclinic cell were a=10.8182(3)A, b=13.3787(4)A, c=17.6881(5)A, α=88.4427(15)°, β=79.5367(16)°, γ=82.0377(16) and °V=2493.21(12)A 3 Therefore, when Z=1 and the formula weight is 1792.50, the calculated density is 1.194 g / cm³. 3 The linear absorption coefficient is 1.055 / mm for Cu Kα rays. Scaling and SADABS 2016-2 4 Multi-scan absorption correction was applied using [a specific method / tool]. The transmission coefficient was in the range of 0.6221 to 0.7543. The intensity of equivalent reflection was not averaged during data processing.
[0183] The space group was determined by the XPREP program, which is integrated into SHELXTL. 5 The intensity statistics showed the space group P1(#1). SHELXS 6a The structure was analyzed using a direct method employing SHELXL-2018. 6 and the graphical user interface ShelXle 7Using all reflections, F 2 The structure was refined using the complete matrix least squares method. Additional atoms were placed in the subsequent difference Fourier synthesis. The structure was refined using the complete matrix least squares method, and in the equation, the minimized function is Σw(|F o | 2 - |F c | 2 ) 2 And the weight w is w = 1 / [σ²(F o 2 ) + (0.0831P) 2 It is defined as + 0.3910P], where P=(F o 2 + 2F c 2 The result is ) / 3). The scattering factors were obtained from the International Tables on Crystallography (Vol C Tables 4.2.6.8 and 6.1.1.4). A total of 19,822 independent reflections were used for refinement. A total of 7,187 reflections with F2 > 2σ(F2) were used for the calculation of R1.
[0184] The hydrogen atoms bonded to carbon were geometrically arranged and constrained to rest on the parent atom. The carbon-hydrogen bond distance was constrained to 0.95A in aromatic and alkene CH moieties, and to 1.00, 0.99, and 0.98A in aliphatic CH, CH2, and CH3 moieties, respectively. 2For hybrid nitrogen atoms, the nitrogen-hydrogen bond distance was constrained to 0.88A. The oxygen-hydrogen distance of alcohols was constrained to 0.84A. Hydrogen atoms on the methyl and alcohol moieties were initially allowed to rotate to best fit the experimental electron density. Where necessary, the positions of the H atoms in alcohols were further constrained based on hydrogen bonding considerations. Some H atoms in disordered methyl groups were set to be in alternating positions in the final refinement cycle. The hydrogen atoms of pyramidal R2NH groups were refined, and the NH distance was constrained to 0.88(2)A. The positions of the H atoms in water were initially refined, and the OH and H…H distances were constrained to 0.84(2) and 1.36(2)A, respectively. Where necessary, the positions of the H atoms in water were further constrained based on hydrogen bonding considerations. In the final refinement cycle, the positions of the hydrogen atoms in water and alcohols were set to rest on the positions of their carrier O atoms. iso (H) value U eq The values were set to multiples of (C), with 1.5 for OH and CH3 units and 1.2 for CH and CH2 units, respectively.
[0185] Disorder was observed in some parts of both crystallographically independent molecules. Further and more widespread disorder was observed in the intervening solvate molecules (methanol and water). Disorder was observed in the methylcyclopropane-carboxamide group in molecules A and B. In molecule B, this disorder extends to the main molecule containing the thiazole and hexahydropyridazine rings. In molecule B, the piperazine ring is also disordered.
[0186] For all disordered segments, equivalent portions of both molecules were constrained to have similar arrangements. The Uij components of the atomic displacement parameter (ADP) for disordered atoms closer to each other than 2.0A were constrained to be similar. Under these conditions, the refined occupancy ratios were 0.593(17) to 0.407(17) for the methylcyclopropane-carboxamide group in molecule A, 0.612(2) to 0.388(2) for the methylcyclopropane-carboxamide / thiazole / hexahydropyridazine disorder in molecule B, and 0.681(11) to 0.319(11) for the piperazine disorder in molecule B.
[0187] The oxygen atom of the methanol molecule (O13, C47) was hydrogen-bonded to either methoxy O4B or pyridyl N5B and refined as disordered. Carbon atoms were excluded from disorder. The distance of the CO bonds was constrained to be similar to that of each other and similar to the distance of two other partially occupied methanol molecules. The Uij components of ADP of disordered atoms closer to each other than 2.0A were constrained to be similar. The positions of the hydroxyl H atoms in small portions were constrained based on the consideration of hydrogen bonding. Under these conditions, the occupancy ratio was refined to 0.789(13) to 0.211(13).
[0188] The encapsulated site by the major molecule was refined into two partially occupied water molecules (O12B, O12D). The Uij components of the ADP of the two oxygen atoms were constrained to be similar. The occupancy was refined to 0.171(11) and 0.292(13).
[0189] The solvate molecule was refined as disorder between methanol (O2, C1) and water, with a water molecule and one H atom shared between the two molecules. Adjacent water molecules were included in the disorder, sharing a methanol / water occupancy ratio. The disorder ratio was refined to 0.550(4)–0.450(4) in favor of methanol.
[0190] Adjacent to this disorder, and related to the disorder of methylcyclopropane-carboxamide in both molecules, is further disorder of water and methanol molecules. The disorder is widespread and partially unexplained. Extensive overlap between organic fragments and solvate molecules, unexplained disorder within the disorder, and variations in the occupancy rates of adjacent solvate molecules prevented the construction of a clear and consistent disorder model. The disorder was approximated using partial occupancy. Where possible, the occupancy rates of overlapping portions were constrained to sum to 1, but some unexplained density differences remained that could not be modeled.
[0191] Two disordered methanol molecules were refined as disordered and partially occupied (O8B, C45B; O8D C45D). The distance of the CO bond was constrained to be similar to that of the other disordered methanol molecules (see above). The Uij components of ADP for disordered atoms closer to each other than 2.0A were constrained to be similar. The occupancy was refined to 0.251(11)(O8B) and 0.388(2)(O8D). The occupancy of disordered water molecules refined to the following values: • O7B: 0.612(2) (Same as the major disordered part of methylcyclopropane-carboxamide in molecule B) • O9B1: 0.450 (4) (Same as the water content of the undisordered methanol / water in O2) • O9B2: 0.162(4) (Shares the same location as O9D) • O10B: 0.489 (17) (partially occupied area) • O10C: 0.388(19) (Same as the small, disordered portion of methylcyclopropane-carboxamide in molecule B) • O7D: 0.169 (13) (Partially occupied area) • O9D: 0.388(2) (shares the same location as O9B2).
[0192] The final refinement cycle, involving 1,598 variable parameters and 1,445 constraints, converged with the following unweighted and weighted coincidence coefficients (the maximum parameter shift was 0.007 times its standard uncertainty): R1 = Σ|F o |-|F c | / Σ|F o |=0.0483 wR2={Σ[w(F o 2 -F c 2 )2] / Σ[w(F o 2 ) 2 ]} 0.5 = 0.1381.
[0193] The goodness-of-fit parameter was 1.031. The highest peak in the final difference Fourier map had a height of 0.693 e / A3. The lowest negative peak had a height of -0.271 e / A3.
