Background Art
[0002] The mixed lineage leukemia (MLL) protein is a histone methyltransferase important for the epigenetic regulation of gene transcription. Many acute leukemias, including acute myeloid leukemia (AML), acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), and mixed lineage leukemia (MLL), are characterized by the presence of chimeric MLL fusion proteins resulting from chromosomal translocations of the MLL gene located at band q23 (11q23) of chromosome 11. The chimeric MLL fusion protein retains approximately 1,400 amino acids at the N-terminus of MLL but is fused to one of approximately 80 partner proteins (e.g., AF4, AF9, ENL, AF10, ELL, AF6, AF1p, GAS7). The MLL fusion protein lacks the native histone methyltransferase activity at the C-terminus of MLL and acquires the ability to regulate the transcription of a number of oncogenes, including HOX and MEIS1, resulting in increased cell proliferation and decreased cell differentiation, ultimately leading to leukemia induction.
[0003] Menin protein, encoded by the multiple endocrine neoplasm (MEN) gene, is a ubiquitously expressed nucleoprotein involved in DNA processing and repair proteins, chromatin modification proteins, and interactions with numerous transcription factors (Horm. Metab. Res. 2005, 37(6), pp. 369-374, by Agarwal et al.). The association of menin with the N-terminus of the MLL fusion protein is required for the oncogenic activity observed with the MLL fusion protein. This association has been shown to constitutively upregulate the expression of HOX and MEIS1 oncogenes and impair hematopoietic cell proliferation and differentiation, leading to the development of leukemia. Since menin has been shown to function as a common oncogenic cofactor in MLL-associated leukemia, the interaction between menin and the MLL fusion protein and MLL represents a potential target for chemotherapy.

"Compound 1" or "(S)-4-methyl-5-((4-((2-(methylamino)-6-(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-4-yl)amino)piperidine-1-yl)methyl)-1-(2-(4-(methylsulfonyl)piperazine-1-yl)propyl)-1H-indole-2-carbonitrile" refers to a free base compound having the following structure.
[0027] [ka] Compound 1 is a menin inhibitor and inhibits the interaction between menin and MLL.
[0028] Some embodiments of this specification describe the crystalline form of compound 1 or its solvate. The solvate contains a stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric amount of solvent and is formed during the process of product formation or isolation using pharmaceutically acceptable solvents such as water, ethanol (EtOH), methanol (MeOH), tert-butyl methyl ether (MTBE), diisopropyl ether, ethyl acetate (siRNA), isopropyl acetate, isopropyl alcohol (IPA), methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK), methyl ethyl ketone (MEK), acetone, nitromethane, tetrahydrofuran (THF), dichloromethane (DCM), dioxane, heptane, toluene, anisole, and acetonitrile (ACN). In some embodiments, the solvate is formed using a Class 3 solvent, but is not limited. In some embodiments, the solvate is formed using a Class 2 solvent, but is not limited. The categories of solvents are defined, for example, in the "Impurities: Guidelines for Residual Solvents Q3C(R6)" (October 2016) of the International Conference on Harmonization of Technical Requirements for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH). When the solvent is water, a hydrate is formed, or when the solvent is an alcohol such as ethanol or IPA, an alcoholate is formed.
[0029] In other embodiments, compound 1 or its solvate may be prepared in various forms, including but not limited to amorphous and crystalline phases.
[0030] While not intended to be bound by any particular theory, certain solid forms are characterized by physical properties suitable for pharmaceutical and therapeutic dosage forms, such as stability, solubility, and dissolution rate. Furthermore, while not intended to be bound by any particular theory, certain solid forms are characterized by physical properties (e.g., density, compressibility, hardness, morphology, brittleness, tackiness, solubility, water absorption, electrical properties, thermal behavior, solid-state reactivity, physical stability, and chemical stability) that influence specific processes (e.g., production, filtration, washing, drying, grinding, mixing, tableting, flow, dissolution, formation, and freeze-drying) that produce a particular solid form suitable for the manufacture of a solid dosage form. Such properties can be determined using specific analytical chemistry techniques, including solid-state analysis techniques described herein (e.g., X-ray diffraction, microscopy, spectroscopy, and thermal analysis).
[0031] Crystal morphology The identification and selection of the solid form of a pharmaceutical compound is complex, considering that changes in solid form can affect various physical and chemical properties, potentially leading to advantages or disadvantages in processing (e.g., fluidity, bulk density), formulation, stability, bioavailability, storage, and handling (e.g., transport), among other important pharmaceutical characteristics. Useful pharmaceutical solids include crystalline and amorphous solids, depending on the product and its mode of administration. Amorphous solids are characterized by a lack of long-range structural order, while crystalline solids are characterized by structural periodicity. The preferred classification of pharmaceutical solids depends on the specific application. Amorphous solids may be selected based, for example, on an enhanced solubility profile, while crystalline solids may be preferred for properties such as physical or chemical stability.
[0032] Whether crystalline or amorphous, the solid forms of pharmaceutical compounds include single-component solids and multi-component solids. A single-component solid consists essentially of a pharmaceutical compound or active ingredient in the absence of other compounds. Diversity in single-component crystalline materials can potentially arise from polymorphism, resulting in the existence of multiple three-dimensional arrangements for a particular pharmaceutical compound.
[0033] In particular, it is impossible to predict a priori whether a crystalline form of a compound exists, let alone one or more physicochemical and biological properties of such materials, or methods for successfully preparing them (e.g., Braga and Grepioni, Chem.Commun. 2005, 29, pp. 3635-3645 ("with respect to crystal engineering, if instructions are not very precise and / or if other external factors affect the process, the result can be unpredictable"), Jones et al., MRS Bull. 2006, 31, pp. 875-879 ("At present it is not generally possible to computationally predict the number of observable polymorphs of even the simplest molecules"), Price, Adv.Drug Deliv.Rev. 2004, 56(3), pp. 301-319, and Bernstein, ACA Transactions 2004, 39, pp. 14-23 ("a great deal still needs to be learned and done before one can state with any degree of confidence the ability"). (See "to predict a crystal structure, much less polymorphic forms")
[0034] The various possible solid-state forms lead to potential diversity in the physical and chemical properties of a given pharmaceutical compound. The discovery and selection of solid-state forms are crucial for the development of effective, stable, and marketable pharmaceuticals.

Biological Data Example 12: Fluorescence Polarization Assay Fluorescence polarization (FP) competition experiments were conducted to determine the effectiveness of compound 1 in inhibiting the interaction between menine and MLL, and IC 50The values were reported. A fluorescein-labeled peptide containing a high-affinity menine-binding motif found in MLL was generated according to Yokoyama et al. (Cell, 2005, 123(2): pp. 207-218). Binding of the labeled peptide (1.7 kDa) to a larger menine (approximately 67 kDa) was accompanied by a significant change in the rotational correlation time of the fluorophore, and a substantial increase in fluorescence polarization and fluorescence anisotropy (excitation at 500 nm, emission at 525 nm). The effectiveness of compound 1 in inhibiting the interaction between menine and MLL was measured by an FP competition experiment in which a decrease in fluorescence anisotropy correlates with inhibition of the interaction, and this was converted to IC. 50 Used as a readout for the determination of compound 1. IC 50 The maximum half-dose inhibitory concentration is less than 50 nM.
