[Technical field]

[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 62 / 884,996, filed August 9, 2019, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.

[0002] The present application relates to a salt form of the PD-1 / PD-L1 inhibitor (R)-1-((7-cyano-2-(3'-(3-(((R)-3-hydroxypyrrolidin-1-yl)methyl)-1,7-naphthyridin-8-ylamino)-2,2'-dimethylbiphenyl-3-yl)benzo[d]oxazol-5-yl)methyl)pyrrolidine-3-carboxylic acid, including methods for its preparation, which compounds are useful in the treatment of a variety of diseases, including infectious diseases and cancer. [Background technology]

[0003] The immune system plays a key role in controlling and eradicating diseases such as cancer. However, cancer cells often develop strategies to evade or suppress the immune system to favor their growth. One such mechanism is to alter the expression of costimulatory and co-inhibitory molecules expressed in immune cells (Postow et al, J. Clinical Oncology 2015,1-9). Blocking the signaling of inhibitory immune checkpoints such as PD-1 has proven to be a promising and effective treatment.

[0004] Programmed cell death-1 (PD-1), also known as CD279, is a cell surface receptor expressed on activated T cells, natural killer T cells, B cells, and macrophages (Greenwald et al, Annu. Rev. Immunol 2005,23:515-548; Okazaki and Honjo, Trends Immunol 2006,(4):195-201). It functions as an intrinsic negative feedback mechanism to prevent T cell activation, which in turn reduces autoimmunity and promotes self-tolerance. In addition, PD-1 is also known to play an important role in suppressing antigen-specific T cell responses in diseases such as cancer and viral infections (Sharpe et al, Nat Immunol 2007 8,239-245; Postow et al, J. Clinical Oncol 2015,1-9).

[0005] The structure of PD-1 consists of an extracellular immunoglobulin variable-like domain followed by a transmembrane region and an intracellular domain (Parry et al, Mol Cell Biol 2005, 9543-9553). The intracellular domain contains two phosphorylation sites located at an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif and an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based switch motif, suggesting that PD-1 negatively regulates T cell receptor-mediated signals. PD-1 has two ligands, PD-L1 and PD-L2 (Parry et al, Mol Cell Biol 2005, 9543-9553; Latchman et al, Nat Immunol 2001, 2, 261-268), which differ in their expression patterns. PD-L1 protein is upregulated in macrophages and dendritic cells in response to lipopolysaccharide and GM-CSF treatment, and in T cells and B cells by T cell receptor and B cell receptor signaling. PD-L1 is also highly expressed by almost all tumor cells, and expression is further increased after IFN-γ treatment (Iwai et al, PNAS 2002, 99(19):12293-7; Blank et al, Cancer Res 2004, 64(3):1140-5). Indeed, tumor PD-L1 expression status has been shown to be prognostic in multiple tumor types (Wang et al, Eur J Surg Oncol 2015; Huang et al, Oncol Rep 2015; Sabatier et al, Oncotarget 2015, 6(7): 5449-5464). In contrast, PD-L2 expression is more restricted and is mainly expressed by dendritic cells (Nakae et al, J Immunol 2006, 177:566-73). Ligation of PD-1 and its ligands PD-L1 and PD-L2 on T cells results in signals that inhibit the production of IL-2 and IFN-γ, as well as cell proliferation induced by T cell receptor activation (Carter et al, Eur J Immunol 2002, 32(3):634-43; Freeman et al, J Exp Med 2000, 192(7):1027-34).This mechanism involves recruitment of SHP-2 or SHP-1 phosphatases that inhibit T cell receptor signaling, such as phosphorylation of Syk and Lck (Sharpe et al, Nat Immunol 2007, 8, 239-245). Activation of the PD-1 signaling axis also attenuates activation of the NF-κB and AP1 pathways, as well as phosphorylation of the PKC-θ activation loop, which is required for cytokine production, such as IL-2, IFN-γ, and TNF (Sharpe et al, Nat Immunol 2007, 8, 239-245; Carter et al, Eur J Immunol 2002, 32(3):634-43; Freeman et al, J Exp Med 2000, 192(7):1027-34).

[0006] Several lines of evidence from preclinical animal studies indicate that PD-1 and its ligands negatively regulate immune responses. PD-1-deficient mice have been shown to develop lupus-like glomerulonephritis and dilated cardiomyopathy (Nishimura et al, Immunity 1999, 11:141-151; Nishimura et al, Science 2001, 291:319-322). Using the LCMV model of chronic infection, PD-1 / PD-L1 interaction has been shown to inhibit the activation, expansion, and acquisition of effector function of virus-specific CD8 T cells (Barber et al, Nature 2006, 439, 682-7). Taken together, these data support the development of therapeutic approaches that block PD-1-mediated inhibitory signaling cascades to augment or "rescue" T cell responses. Thus, new compounds and salts that block PD-1 / PD-L1 protein / protein interactions are needed. Summary of the Invention

In some embodiments, the solvent includes acetone, tetrahydrofuran, dichloromethane, methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, or isopropanol. In some embodiments, the solvent includes acetone.

[0109] In some embodiments, the solvent is a mixture of acetone, methanol, and dichloromethane.

[0110] In some embodiments, the solvent is at about room temperature. In some embodiments, the solvent is heated to a temperature of about 50° C. In some embodiments, the temperature is about 50° C. to about 80° C. In some embodiments, the temperature is about 40° C. to about 60° C. In some embodiments, the temperature is about 45° C. to about 55° C. In some embodiments, the temperature is about 45° C., about 50° C., about 55° C., about 60° C., about 65° C., about 70° C., about 75° C., or about 80° C.

[0111] In some embodiments, the solvent is heated to a temperature capable of inducing precipitation at a practical rate. In some embodiments, precipitation is complete within about 12 to about 24 hours, although longer and shorter periods are possible depending on the choice of precipitation solvent and temperature. In some embodiments, precipitation is complete within about 90 minutes.

[0112] In some embodiments, precipitation of the phosphate salt (about 1:3) is carried out by filtering the salt from the solution.

[0113] In some embodiments, the phosphate salt of Compound 1 (about 1:3) is amorphous.

[0114] Different forms of the same substance have different bulk properties, e.g., with respect to hygroscopicity, solubility, stability, etc. Forms with high melting points often have good thermodynamic stability, which is advantageous for extending the shelf life of drug formulations, including solid forms. Forms with low melting points are often less thermodynamically stable, but they are advantageous in that they result in higher water solubility, which in turn results in higher drug bioavailability. Forms with low hygroscopicity are desirable for stability to heat and humidity, and resist degradation during long-term storage.

[0115] In some embodiments, the salt of Compound 1 provided herein is crystalline. As used herein, "crystalline" or "crystal form" refers to a certain lattice configuration of a crystalline substance. Different crystal forms of the same substance typically have different crystal lattices (e.g., unit cells), which are due to the different physical properties inherent to each crystal form. In some cases, different lattice configurations have different water or solvent contents.

[0116] Different salt forms can be identified by solid state characterization methods such as X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD). Other characterization methods such as differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), dynamic vapor sorption (DVS), solid state NMR, etc., further aid in identifying the crystalline form, as well as determining stability and solvent / water content.

[0117] XRPD patterns of reflections (peaks) are typically considered as fingerprints of a particular crystalline form. It is well known that the relative intensities of XRPD peaks can vary widely depending on, among other things, the sample preparation technique, the distribution of crystal sizes, the various filters used, the sample mounting procedure, and the particular instrument employed. In some instances, new peaks may be observed or existing peaks may disappear, depending on the type or settings of the instrument. As used herein, the term "peak" refers to a reflection having a relative height / intensity of at least about 4% of the maximum peak height / intensity. Furthermore, instrumental variations and other factors may affect the 2-theta values. Thus, peak assignments such as those reported herein may vary by plus or minus about 0.2° (2-theta), and the terms "substantially" and "about" as used herein in the context of XRPD are meant to encompass the above-mentioned variations.

[0118] Similarly, temperature readings for DSC, TGA, or other thermal experiments may vary by about ±3° C. depending on the instrument, the particular settings, sample preparation, etc. Thus, the crystalline forms reported herein having DSC thermograms "substantially" as shown in any of the drawings or the term "about" are understood to accommodate such variations.

[0119] In some embodiments, the term "about" means ±10%. In some embodiments, the term "about" means ±5%.

[0120] In some embodiments, the salts described herein are substantially isolated. By "substantially isolated" it is meant that the salt is at least partially or substantially separated from the environment in which it was formed or detected. Partial separation can include, for example, compositions enriched in the salts described herein. Substantial separation can include compositions that contain at least about 50% by weight, at least about 60% by weight, at least about 70% by weight, at least about 80% by weight, at least about 90% by weight, at least about 95% by weight, at least about 97% by weight, or at least about 99% by weight of the salts described herein or salts thereof. Methods for isolating salts are routine in the art.

[0121] The salts of the present invention may also include all isotopes of atoms present in the final salt or compound 1. Isotopes include those atoms having the same atomic number but different mass numbers. For example, isotopes of hydrogen include tritium and deuterium.

[0122] In some embodiments, the salts may be found together with other substances such as water and solvents (eg, hydrates and solvates) or may be isolated.

[0123] The phrase "pharmacologically acceptable" is used herein to refer to salts, materials, compositions, and / or dosage forms that are suitable for use in contact with the tissues of human beings and animals without excessive toxicity, irritation, allergic response, or other problem or complication, within the scope of sound medical judgment, commensurate with a reasonable benefit / risk ratio.

[0124] The salt formation reactions described herein can be carried out at any suitable temperature, which can be readily determined by one of ordinary skill in the art. The reaction temperature will depend, for example, on the melting and boiling points of the reagents and solvent (if present), the thermodynamics of the reaction (e.g., highly exothermic reactions may need to be carried out at lower temperatures), and the kinetics of the reaction (e.g., high activation energy barriers may require higher temperatures).

[0125] As used herein, the expressions "ambient temperature" and "room temperature" or "rt" are art-recognized and generally refer to a temperature, e.g., a reaction temperature approaching the temperature of the room in which the salt-forming reaction is carried out, e.g., about 20° C. to about 30° C.

[0126] The salt-forming reactions described herein can be carried out in air or under an inert atmosphere. Typically, reactions involving reagents or products that are substantially reactive with air can be carried out using air-sensitive synthetic techniques well known to those skilled in the art.

In making the composition of the present invention, the active ingredient is typically mixed with an excipient, diluted by an excipient, or enclosed in such a carrier, for example, in the form of a capsule, sachet, paper, or other container. When an excipient functions as a diluent, it can be a solid, semi-solid, or liquid material that acts as a vehicle, carrier, or medium for the active ingredient. Thus, the composition can be in the form of a tablet, pill, powder, lozenge, sachet, cachet, elixir, suspension, emulsion, solution, syrup, aerosol (as a solid or liquid medium), for example, an ointment containing up to 10% by weight of the active salt, soft and hard gelatin capsules, suppositories, sterile injectable solutions, and sterile packaged powders.

[0209] When preparing the formulation, active salt can be milled to obtain a suitable particle size before combining with other components.If active salt is substantially insoluble, it can be milled to a particle size of less than 200 mesh.If active salt is substantially water-soluble, particle size can be adjusted by milling to obtain a substantially uniform distribution in the formulation, for example, about 40 mesh.

[0210] The salts of the invention may be milled using known milling procedures, such as wet milling, to obtain a particle size suitable for tablet formation and other formulation types. Finely divided (nanoparticulate) preparations of the salts of the invention may be prepared by processes known in the art (see, for example, WO 2002 / 000196).

[0214] In some embodiments, the compositions are manufactured using a wet granulation process. In some embodiments, the compositions are manufactured using a dry granulation process.

[0215] The compositions may be formulated in unit dosage form, each dosage containing from about 5 to about 1000 mg (1 g), more usually from about 100 to about 500 mg, of the active ingredient. In some embodiments, each dosage contains about 10 mg of active ingredient. In some embodiments, each dosage contains about 50 mg of active ingredient. In some embodiments, each dosage contains about 25 mg of active ingredient. The term "unit dosage form" refers to physically discrete units suitable as unitary dosages for human subjects and other mammals, each unit containing a predetermined quantity of active material calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect, in association with a suitable pharmaceutical excipient.

[0216] The ingredients used to formulate the pharmaceutical compositions are of high purity and substantially free of potentially harmful contaminants (e.g., at least national food grade, generally at least analytical grade, more typically at least pharmaceutical grade). In particular, for human consumption, the compositions are preferably manufactured or formulated in accordance with good manufacturing practice regulations as defined in applicable regulations of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. For example, suitable formulations may be sterile and / or substantially isotonic, and / or in full compliance with all U.S. Food and Drug Administration good manufacturing practice regulations.

[0217] The active salts can be effective over a wide dosage range and are generally administered in a therapeutically effective amount. However, it will be understood that the amount of salt actually administered will usually be determined by the physician according to the relevant circumstances, including the condition being treated, the selected route of administration, the salt actually administered, the age, weight, and response of the individual patient, the severity of the patient's condition, and the like.

[0218] The therapeutic dosage of the salt of the invention may vary according to, for example, the particular application for which the treatment is being performed, the method of administration of the salt, the health and condition of the patient, and the judgment of the prescribing physician. The proportion or concentration of the salt of the invention in a pharmaceutical composition may vary depending on many factors, including the dosage, chemical characteristics (e.g., hydrophobicity), and route of administration. For example, the salt of the invention may be provided in an aqueous physiological buffer solution containing about 0.1 to about 10% w / v of the salt for parenteral administration. Some typical dosage ranges are about 1 μg / kg to about 1 g / kg of body weight per day. In some embodiments, the dosage range is about 0.01 mg / kg to about 100 mg / kg of body weight per day. The dosage may depend on such variables as the type and extent of progression of the disease or disorder, the overall health of the particular patient, the relative biological availability of the selected salt, the excipient formulation, and its route of administration. Effective doses may be extrapolated from dose-response curves derived from in vitro or animal model test systems.

[0219] To prepare solid compositions such as tablets, the primary active ingredient is mixed with a pharmaceutical excipient to form a solid preformulation composition containing a homogeneous mixture of the salt of the present invention. When referring to these preformulation compositions as homogeneous, the active ingredient is typically evenly dispersed throughout the composition, and the composition can be readily divided into equally effective unit dosage forms such as tablets, pills, and capsules. This solid preformulation composition is then further divided into unit dosage forms of the type described above, for example, containing from about 0.1 to about 1000 mg of the active ingredient of the present invention.

[0220] The tablet or pill of the present invention can be coated or otherwise compounded to provide a dosage form that provides the advantage of long-term action.For example, the tablet or pill can comprise an inner dose and an outer dose component, the latter being in the form of an envelope on a forming agent.The two components can be separated by an enteric layer that resists disintegration in the stomach and allows the inner component to pass intact into the duodenum or to be delayed in release.Various materials can be utilized as such enteric layer or coating, including materials including a number of polymeric acids and mixtures of polymeric acids with materials such as shellac, cetyl alcohol, and cellulose acetate.

[0221] Liquid forms for oral or injectable administration into which the salts and compositions of the invention may be incorporated include aqueous solutions, suitably flavored syrups, aqueous or oily suspensions, and flavored emulsions containing edible oils such as cottonseed oil, sesame oil, coconut oil, or peanut oil, as well as elixirs and similar pharmaceutical vehicles.

[0222] Compositions for inhalation or insufflation include solutions and suspensions in pharma- ceutically acceptable aqueous or organic solvents, or mixtures thereof, as well as powders. Liquid or solid compositions may contain suitable pharma- ceutically acceptable excipients as described above. In some embodiments, the compositions are administered by oral or nasal respiratory route for local or systemic effect. Compositions may be nebulized by using inert gases. Nebulized solutions may be breathed directly from the nebulizing device, or the nebulizing device may be attached to a face mask, tent, or intermittent positive pressure breathing machine. Solution, suspension, or powder compositions may be administered orally or nasally from a device that delivers the formulation in an appropriate manner.

[0223] Topical formulations may include one or more conventional carriers. In some embodiments, ointments may include water and one or more hydrophobic carriers selected from, for example, liquid paraffin, polyoxyethylene alkyl ether, propylene glycol, white petrolatum, and the like. The carrier composition of creams may be based on glycerol and water in combination with one or more other ingredients, such as, for example, glycerol monostearate, PEG-glycerol monostearate, and cetylstearyl alcohol. Gels may be formulated using isopropyl alcohol and water, preferably in combination with other ingredients, such as, for example, glycerol, hydroxyethylcellulose, and the like. In some embodiments, topical formulations include at least about 0.1, at least about 0.25, at least about 0.5, at least about 1, at least about 2, or at least about 5% by weight of the salt of the invention. Topical formulations may be suitably packaged in 100 g tubes, optionally accompanied by instructions for treating a selected indication, such as, for example, psoriasis or other skin conditions.

[0224] The amount of salt or composition administered to a patient will vary depending on what is being administered, the purpose of the administration, such as prophylaxis or treatment, the condition of the patient, the method of administration, etc. In therapeutic applications, the compositions may be administered to a patient already suffering from a disease in an amount sufficient to cure or at least partially arrest the symptoms of the disease and its complications. The effective dose will depend on the condition of the disease being treated, as well as the judgment of the attending clinician, based on factors such as the severity of the disease, the age, weight, and general health of the patient.

[0225] The compositions administered to patients may be in the form of pharmaceutical compositions described above. These compositions may be sterilized by conventional sterilization techniques or may be sterile filtered. Aqueous solutions may be packaged or lyophilized for use as is, although lyophilized preparations are combined with a sterile aqueous carrier prior to administration. The pH of the formulations will typically be 3-11, more preferably 5-9, and most preferably 7-8.

[0226] The therapeutic dosage of the salt of the invention may vary according to, for example, the particular application for which the treatment is to be performed, the method of administration of the salt, the health and condition of the patient, and the judgment of the prescribing physician. The proportion or concentration of the salt of the invention in a pharmaceutical composition may vary depending on many factors, including the dosage, chemical properties (e.g., hydrophobicity), and route of administration. For example, the salt of the invention may be provided in an aqueous physiological buffer solution containing about 0.1 to about 10% w / v of the salt for parenteral administration. Some typical dosages range from about 1 μg / kg body weight to about 1 g / kg body weight per day. In some embodiments, the dosage range is from about 0.01 mg / kg body weight to about 100 mg / kg body weight per day. The dosage may depend on such variables as the type and extent of progression of the disease or disorder, the overall health of the particular patient, the relative biological availability of the selected salt, the excipient formulation, and its route of administration. Effective doses may be extrapolated from dose-response curves derived from in vitro or animal model test systems.

[0227] Labeled Compounds and Assay Methods The salts of the present disclosure may further be useful in investigating biological processes in normal and abnormal tissues. Accordingly, another aspect of the present invention relates to labeled salts of the present invention (radiolabeled, fluorescently labeled, etc.) that may be useful in imaging techniques as well as in both in vitro and in vivo assays for localizing and quantitating PD-1 or PD-L1 protein in tissue samples, including humans, and for identifying PD-L1 ligands by inhibitory binding of the labeled compounds. Thus, the present invention includes PD-1 / PD-L1 binding assays comprising such labeled salts.

[0228] The present invention further includes isotopically substituted salts of the present disclosure. An "isotopically substituted" salt is a salt of the present invention in which one or more atoms have been replaced or substituted by an atom having the same atomic number, but, for example, an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number typically found in nature (i.e., naturally occurring). It is to be understood that a "radiolabeled" salt is a salt incorporating at least one isotope (e.g., a radionuclide) that is radioactive. Suitable radionuclides that can be incorporated into the salt of the present invention include: 3 H (written as T for tritium), 11 C. 13 C. 14 C. 13 N, 15 N, 15 O. 17 O. 18 O. 18 F, 35 S, 36 Cl, 82 Br, 75 Br, 76 Br, 77 Br, 123 I, 124 I, 125 I, and 131 The radionuclide incorporated in the radiolabeled salts of the present invention will depend on the particular application of the radiolabeled salt. For example, in in vitro PD-L1 protein labeling and competition assays, 3 H, 14 C. 82 Br, 125 I, 131 I, 35 Salts incorporating S will generally be most useful. For radioimaging applications, 11 C. 18 F, 125 I, 123 I, 124 I, 131 I, 75 Br, 76 Br or 77 Br will generally be the most useful.

[0229] In some embodiments, the radionuclide is 3H, 14 C. 125 I, 35 S, and 82 Br. Synthetic methods for incorporating radioisotopes into organic compounds and salts are known in the art.

[0230] Specifically, the labeled salts of the present invention can be used in screening assays to identify and / or evaluate compounds. For example, a labeled newly synthesized or identified salt (i.e., a test salt) can be evaluated for its ability to bind to PD-L1 protein by monitoring its concentration change upon contact with PD-L1 protein through tracking of the label. For example, a (labeled) test salt can be evaluated for its ability to reduce the binding of another compound (i.e., a standard compound) known to bind to PD-L1 protein. Thus, the ability of the test salt to compete with the standard compound for binding to PD-L1 protein directly correlates with its binding affinity. Conversely, in some other screening assays, the standard salt is labeled and the test compound is not labeled. Thus, to evaluate the competition between the standard compound and the test salt, the concentration of the labeled standard salt is monitored, thereby ascertaining the relative binding affinity of the test salt.
