Description

Technical Field

[0001] Field of the Invention The present disclosure relates to the fields of chemistry and medicine, and more specifically, to 4-(2-chloro-4-methoxy-5-methylphenyl)-N-[(1S)-2-cyclopropyl-1-(3-fluoro-4-methylphenyl)ethyl]-5-methyl-N-prop-2-ynyl-1,3-thiazole-2-amine (Compound 1), pharmaceutically acceptable salts, and methods for making its crystalline forms for the treatment of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH).

Background Art

[0002] Background of the Invention Classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is a disorder that includes a group of autosomal recessive disorders that result in an enzyme deficiency that alters adrenal steroidogenesis due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency, a state in which cortisol biosynthesis is almost or completely absent. One clinical manifestation of the absence of cortisol is the lack of feedback inhibition of pituitary adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) secretion. The increase in ACTH levels causes adrenal hyperplasia, and the enzyme mutation causes diversion of steroids, which are cortisol precursors, to alternative pathways. Most notably, the androgen pathway causes virilization and other developmental complications in females, and the excessive accumulation of ACTH in males is associated with the formation of testicular adrenal rest tumors. In addition, since the same enzyme (21-hydroxylase) is used in the pathway for mineralocorticoid biosynthesis, many of these patients are at risk of developing aldosterone deficiency, which can lead to dehydration and death due to salt loss. The prevalence of classical 21-hydroxylase deficiency CAH in the US population based on newborn screening was recorded as 1:10,000 to 1:20,800 (Trakakis et al., "An update to 21-hydroxylase deficient congenital adrenal hyperplasia," Gynecol. Endocrinol. (2010) 26(1):63-71, Hertzberg et al., "Birth prevalence rates of newborn screening disorders in relation to screening practices in the United States," J. Pediatr. (2011) 159(4):555-560).

[0003] Pediatric patients and females from birth to adolescence are particularly the most vulnerable groups of CAH patients and are thought to be a subgroup of patients in whom the medical need is least met (Cheng and Speiser, "Treatment outcomes in congenital adrenal hyperplasia," Adv. Pediatr. (2012) 59(1):269-281; Merke and Poppas, "Management of adolescents with congenital adrenal hyperplasia," Lancet Diabetes Endocrinol. (2013) 1(4):341-352). Excessive androgen production in these young patients causes premature puberty and adrenarche symptoms, changes in the pattern of skeletal maturation, short stature due to premature fusion of growth plates, as well as significant hirsutism and acne problems. Although life is appropriately protected by steroid replacement strategies based on physiological dosing of glucocorticoids (e.g., hydrocortisone) and mineralocorticoids (e.g., fludrocortisone), these dosages are often inadequate to suppress the accumulation of ACTH and the overproduction of progesterone and androgens (e.g., 17-hydroxyprogesterone [17-OHP], androstenedione, and testosterone). Uncontrolled symptoms of androgen excess have a substantial impact on the daily function and development of these patients.

[0004] Currently, exogenous corticosteroids have become the standard care for treating patients with classical CAH. This treatment is used to correct cortisol deficiency and reduce elevated ACTH levels and androgen excess. However, the dosage and duration of steroid use required to suppress ACTH typically far exceed the normal physiological levels used for cortisol replacement only (as in patients with Addison's disease). This increased exposure to glucocorticoids can result in iatrogenic Cushing's syndrome, increased cardiovascular risk factors, impaired glucose tolerance, decreased growth rate, and decreased bone mineral density in CAH patients (Elnecave et al., "Bone mineral density in girls with classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to CYP21 deficiency," J. Pediatr. Endocrinol. Metab. (2008) 21(12):1155-1162; King et al., "Long-term corticosteroid replacement and bone mineral density in adult women with classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia," J. Clin. Endocrinol. Metab. (2006) 91(3):865-869 and Migeon and Wisniewski, "Congenital adrenal hyperplasia owing to 21-hydroxylase deficiency. Growth, development, and therapeutic considerations," Endocrinol. Metab. Clin. North Am. (2001) 30(1):193-206).

[0005] An orally active compound that blocks CRF1, for example, 4-(2-chloro-4-methoxy-5-methylphenyl)-N-[(1S)-2-cyclopropyl-1-(3-fluoro-4-methylphenyl)ethyl]-5-methyl-N-prop-2-ynyl-1,3-thiazole-2-amine (Compound 1), in patients with CAH, at an amount that is thought to enable the use of lower and more physiological doses of glucocorticoids (e.g., hydrocortisone), has been demonstrated in clinical trials to reduce 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP) and androstenedione levels from baseline. The structure of Compound 1 is shown below. [Chemical formula]

[0006] Therefore, there is a fairly high need for an efficient method for the preparation of 4-(2-chloro-4-methoxy-5-methylphenyl)-N-[(1S)-2-cyclopropyl-1-(3-fluoro-4-methylphenyl)ethyl]-5-methyl-N-prop-2-ynyl-1,3-thiazole-2-amine (Compound 1) to support further clinical trials and commercial efforts.

Various medical systems around the world use various methods for prescribing and administering compounds or treatments, and these methods are encompassed by the present disclosure herein. Healthcare providers can include, for example, physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, or other medical professionals who can prescribe or administer a compound (drug) for a disorder disclosed herein. Additionally, healthcare providers can include those who can recommend, prescribe, administer, or cause an individual not to receive a compound or drug, including, for example, insurance providers.

[0093] The terms "prevent", "preventing", and "prevention" refer to eliminating or reducing the occurrence or onset of one or more symptoms associated with a particular disorder. For example, the terms "prevent", "preventing", and "prevention" can refer to administering treatment on a prophylactic or preventative basis to an individual who may ultimately exhibit, but has not yet exhibited, at least one symptom of a disorder. Such individuals can be identified based on the presence of risk factors, such as biomarkers, that are known to correlate with subsequent development of the disease. Alternatively, prophylactic treatment can be administered as a preventative measure without prior identification of a risk factor. Delaying the onset of at least one episode and / or symptom of a disorder can also be considered prevention or prophylaxis.

[0094] As used herein, the terms "react", "contact", or "treat", when describing a particular chemical reaction or process, are used as known in the art and generally refer to bringing chemical reagents and / or intermediates together in such a manner that molecular-level interactions can achieve a chemical or physical transformation. In some embodiments, the reaction comprises two reagents, where, with respect to the first reagent, one equivalent or more of the second reagent is used. The reaction steps of the methods described herein can be carried out under such conditions for a time suitable to prepare the specified product. Also herein, additional terms are used solely to provide descriptive clarity between various method steps, each of which has the same definition as those described above. These additional terms include "alkylation", "cyclization", "deprotection", "reduction", and "condensation".

[0095] The term "solvate", as used herein, refers to a solid-state form of a compound of the invention or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof that contains a stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric amount of a solvent bound by non-covalent intermolecular forces. When the solvent is water, the solvate is a hydrate.

[0096] As used herein, the term "subject" means a human or non-human mammal, such as a dog, cat, mouse, rat, cow, sheep, pig, goat, non-human primate, or bird, such as a chicken, and any other vertebrate or invertebrate animal. In some embodiments, the subject is a human.

In some embodiments, the subject is a pediatric subject.

[0098] As used herein, the term "substituted" refers to the replacement of at least one of the hydrogen atoms of a chemical group by a non-hydrogen substituent or group, and the non-hydrogen substituent may be monovalent or divalent. When a chemical group or substituent is divalent, it is understood that this group is further substituted by another substituent or group. When a chemical group herein is "substituted", it may have up to the total substitution valence. For example, a methyl group may be substituted by 1, 2, or 3 substituents, a methylene group may be substituted by 1 or 2 substituents, a phenyl group may be substituted by 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 substituents, a naphthyl group may be substituted by 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7 substituents, and so on. Similarly, "substituted with one or more substituents" refers to the substitution of a group that is substituted from one substituent to the total number of substituents physically possible by that group. "Optionally substituted" is understood to refer to a group that is "unsubstituted" or "substituted" with a certain group as used herein. Thus, when a group is "optionally substituted with one or more substituents", the group is either "unsubstituted" or "substituted", and when substituted, the group is understood to be substituted from one substituent to the total number of substituents physically possible by that group as described above. In some embodiments, the group may be "optionally substituted with 1, 2, 3, or 4 substituents". In some embodiments, the group may be "optionally substituted with 1, 2, or 3 substituents". In some embodiments, the group may be "optionally substituted with 1 or 2 substituents". In some embodiments, the group may be "optionally substituted with 1 substituent".

Further characterization of the water or solvent content of the crystalline forms can be measured by any of the following methods, for example, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), DSC, etc.

[0102] For DSC, it is known that the temperature at which a thermal event is observed can vary depending on the purity of the sample and can also vary depending on the rate of temperature change, as well as the sample preparation technique and the equipment used. Accordingly, the values reported herein for DSC thermograms may vary by plus or minus about 5 °C (i.e., ± about 5 °C). The values reported herein for DSC thermograms may also vary by plus or minus about 20 joules per gram (i.e., ± about 20 per gram).

[0103] For XRPD, the relative intensities of the peaks can vary depending on the sample preparation technique, the sample mounting procedure, and the equipment used. Further, instrument variations and other factors can often affect the 2θ values. Accordingly, the assignment of the peaks in the diffraction pattern may vary by plus or minus about 0.2° (i.e., ± about 0.2°). For TGA, the temperature features reported herein may vary by plus or minus about 5 °C (i.e., ± about 5 °C). The TGA % weight change reported herein over a specific temperature range may vary by plus or minus about 2% weight change (i.e., ± about 2% weight change), for example, due to variations in the mass of the sample and the size of the sample. All X-ray powder diffraction patterns (diffractograms) were obtained using Cu-Kα radiation.

[0104] Further characterization of the hygroscopicity of the crystalline form can be measured, for example, by gravimetric vapor sorption (GVS). The characteristics of the GVS reported herein may vary by plus or minus about 5% relative humidity (i.e., ± about 5% relative humidity). The characteristics of the GVS reported herein may also vary by plus or minus about 2% weight change (i.e., ± about 2% weight change).

[0113] Peak intensity may vary depending on any number of factors known to those skilled in the art, such as preferred orientation effects, preparation techniques, sample mounting procedures, the equipment used, etc., even for the same crystal form. In some cases, the peak intensity can be quite dramatic. Therefore, the diffraction peak intensities shown herein are exemplary and the same diffraction peak intensity is not necessarily required. One example is the XRPD for Form I shown in Figure 7, which shows substantially the same peak positions but with dramatic peak intensity differences. Those skilled in the art should understand that Figures 1 and 7 are XRPDs of Form I despite the difference in peak intensity. Similarly, those skilled in the art should be able to easily compare the diffraction diagrams provided herein with those created for an unknown crystal form and readily determine whether the diffraction diagram characterizes the same crystal form as provided herein or a different form.

[0231] A chemical element has an atomic number defined by the number of protons in its nucleus. Each atomic number identifies a particular element but not an isotope, and atoms of a given element can have a wide range of numbers of neutrons. The number of both protons and neutrons in the nucleus is the mass number of the atom, and each isotope of a given element has a different mass number. A compound in which one or more atoms have an isotope distribution for a chemical element that is different from the amounts normally found in nature is generally said to be an isotope-labeled compound. Each chemical element represented within a compound structure can include any isotope distribution of said element. For example, within a compound structure, a hydrogen atom can be clearly disclosed as being present in the compound or can be understood as such. At any position in a compound where a hydrogen atom can be present, that hydrogen atom can be in a proportional amount relative to the amount normally found in nature and in proportional amounts different from the amount normally found in nature, including, but not limited to, protium ( 1(H) and deuterium ( 2 H) can exist in the isotope distribution of hydrogen including.

In some embodiments, the atoms at each position of the compound have an isotope distribution for each chemical element in a proportional amount relative to the amount normally found in nature. In some embodiments, the atoms at at least one position of the compound have an isotope distribution for a chemical element in a proportional amount different from the amount normally found in nature (the remaining atoms have an isotope distribution for a chemical element in a proportional amount relative to the amount normally found in nature).
