[0003] This application relates to salts and polymorphs of aminoalkylfumagilol carbamates (e.g., fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamate benzenesulfonate and fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamate hydroxynaphthoethate). The salts and polymorphs of this application are useful as stable intermediates in the production of fumagilol derivatives (e.g., polymer-conjugated fumagilol derivatives) or as therapeutic agents.

[0004] Fumagiline is a low-molecular-weight substance used as an antimicrobial and antiprotozoan. The clinical applications of fumagiline and its derivatives have been limited by toxicity. The formation of fumagiline polymer conjugates for therapeutic purposes requires the presence of one or more stable, pure fumagiline-derived intermediates that do not readily self-condense or hydrolyze (e.g., by the reaction of amine-modified fumagilol with an epoxide on fumagilol). Furthermore, impurities covalently bonded to the polymer backbone are difficult to remove. [Overview of the project]

[0082] In one embodiment, the disclosure provides polymorphs of fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamatebenzenesulfonate characterized by an X-ray powder diffraction pattern using Cu Kα irradiation, which includes peaks at approximately 6.0, 9.0, and 18.0 (e.g., approximately 5.96, 9.00, and 18.02)°2θ.

[0083] In one embodiment, form II further features an X-ray powder diffraction pattern using Cu Kα irradiation, including peaks at approximately 6.0, 9.0, and 18.0°2θ. In another embodiment, form II further features an X-ray powder diffraction pattern using Cu Kα irradiation, including peaks at approximately 6.0, 9.0, 12.3, 12.5, 16.1, and 18.0°2θ. In other embodiments, form II is further characterized by an X-ray powder diffraction pattern using Cu Kα irradiation, including peaks at approximately 5.4, 6.0, 9.0, 12.3, 12.5, 13.8, 16.1, 17.3, 18.0, 20.0, 20.8, and 25.8 °2θ. In other embodiments, form II is further characterized by an X-ray powder diffraction pattern using Cu Kα irradiation, including peaks at approximately 5.4, 6.0, 9.0, 12.3, 12.5, 13.8, 16.1, 17.3, 18.0, 20.0, 20.8, 21.5, 22.0, 24.3, and 25.8 °2θ. In other embodiments, form II of formula I is further characterized by an X-ray powder diffraction pattern including any of the peaks listed in Tables 2-7.

[0084] In one or more embodiments, Embodiment II further features an X-ray powder diffraction pattern substantially similar to that shown in Figure 1A. In one or more embodiments, Embodiment II further features an X-ray powder diffraction pattern substantially similar to that shown in Figure 2A. In one or more embodiments, Embodiment II further features an X-ray powder diffraction pattern substantially similar to that shown in Figures 3A, 3B, or 3C. In one or more embodiments, Embodiment II further features an X-ray powder diffraction pattern substantially similar to that shown in Figures 4A, 4B, or 4C. In one or more embodiments, Embodiment II further features an X-ray powder diffraction pattern substantially similar to that shown in Figure 5A. In one or more embodiments, Embodiment II further features an X-ray powder diffraction pattern substantially similar to that shown in Figure 6A.

[0085] In one or more embodiments, the polymorph of form II is further characterized by the onset of an exothermic event at approximately 178°C and a peak at approximately 188°C when measured by differential scanning calorimetry. Figures 1B and 2B show DSC plots of form II of formula I. In one or more embodiments, the polymorph of form II is further characterized by the onset of an exothermic event at approximately 181°C and a peak at approximately 189°C when measured by thermogravimetric analysis / differential thermal analysis. Figures 1C and 2C show TG / DTA plots of a sample of form II of formula I.

[0086] As shown in the tables and figures of this application, not all values ​​of the peaks (position 2θ) will necessarily match those of different lots of the polymorphs of this application. A person skilled in the art will understand that even different lots of polymorphs of the same form may produce slightly different characterization data, but not obviously different. For example, slight variations in the calibration of the instrument used to perform a given measurement, or slight variations in relative humidity between measurements, may result in data showing slight differences between lots. A person skilled in the art could therefore calibrate his or her instrument and perform repeated measurements to minimize inconsistencies between signals for properly characterizing the polymorphs of this application. However, despite slight differences between batches, the polymorphs of this application are identified and characterized by the characteristic peaks described above (e.g., about 6.0, 9.0 and 18.0°2θ, e.g., ± 0.2°2θ). XPRD [Table 2] [Table 3] [Table 4] [Table 5] [Table 6] [Table 7]

[0087] Table 8 shows the polarization analysis data for lots GMP-1 and GMP-2 of formula I. [Table 8] Single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SXRD)

[0088] The crystal structure of formula I is shown in Figure 8. All non-hydrogen atoms are shown as thermal ellipsoids set at a 30% occupancy level.

[0089] An asymmetric unit containing protonated fumagillol-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamate of two complete formula units having only two related benzenesulfonate anions was found. During refinement, large thermal displacement ellipsoids were observed for the carbon atoms C(20B), C(21B), C(22B) and C(23B) of the alkene moiety of molecule “B”.

[0090] Further irregularities were observed for benzenesulfonate “molecule B” centered on sulfur atom S(1B) which also shows a large thermal displacement ellipsoid for the benzyl ring C(24B)<C(29B). A rotational disorder was observed for the sulfonate moiety of this molecule centered on S(1B), with an occupancy of 0.78:0.22 fitting well, and the distances -O(6B) and S(1B)-O(8C) were fixed at 1.48(1), and 1.44(1) for S(1B)-O(7C).

[0091] Approximately 1.5% of the unit cell is occupied by two solvent voids measuring approximately 168 Å3 and 812 Å3, and the electron density was found to be equal to 74 and 137 electrons respectively. Although not indicative of being constrained by theory, these are most likely arising from disordered solvent molecules. Therefore, the electron density within these voids was modeled with a small mole fraction of solvent molecules. It contains 0.27 equivalents of water, 0.12 equivalents of methanol and 0.06 equivalents of MTBE. Of these, the partially occupied methanol and two partially occupied water molecules were refined at the unit cell origin.

[0092] To correct for the extinction effect of the observed data, an extinction correction of 0.00031(3) was applied, all hydrogen atoms were placed at calculated positions, and refinement was carried out using a riding model where 1.2 times Uiso was fixed for all CH, CH2, NH, NH3 groups and 1.5 times Uiso was fixed for all CH3 groups.

[0093] The highest residual Fourier peak is 0.80 e. Å. 3 Approximately 1.1 Å from C(30) 3 This was the result. While not constrained by theory, this appears to be due to further disorder present in the solvent voids occupied by the modeled MTBE molecule centered around O(9). The deepest Fourier hole was -0.41 e. Å, approximately 1.54 Å from H(9AA).

[0148] In some embodiments, polymorph II of fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamatebenzenesulfonate can be crystallized from a mixture of MTBE and methanol by mixing (trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamatebenzenesulfonate in MTBE and methanol at about 50°C, cooling the resulting mixture, and then adding MTBE to the mixture to complete crystallization. In some embodiments, the mixture of MTBE and methanol is a 50:50 mixture. The ratio of MTBE to methanol can be any ratio between 1:99 and 99:1.

Fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamatebenzenesulfonate can also be dissolved at any specific temperature between about 40°C, about 35°C, about 25°C, or 50°C–5°C. The XRPD spectra of the material produced by the cooling recrystallization procedure are shown in Figure 3. Figure 3A shows the XRPD spectrum of the material from the first sample (i.e., before the addition of further MTBE), and Figure 3B shows the material from the second sample (i.e., after the addition of 30 mL of MTBE). Figure 3C shows the XRPD spectrum of the dried final material. Recrystallization using a poor solvent

[0149] In some embodiments, polymorph II of fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamatebenzenesulfonate can be crystallized from a mixture of MTBE and methanol by adding solid fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamatebenzenesulfonate to MTBE and methanol at about 50°C, and adding additional MTBE before cooling the resulting mixture to complete crystallization.

Fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamatebenzenesulfonate can also be dissolved at any specific temperature between 50°C and 40°C, such as about 40°C, about 35°C, about 25°C, or 50°C. Figure 4A shows the XRPD spectrum of the substance from the first sample (i.e., after the addition of approximately 30 mL of MTBE), and Figure 4B shows the XRPD spectrum of the substance from the second sample (i.e., after the addition of 60 mL of MTBE). Figure 4C shows the XRPD spectrum of the dried final substance. Crystallization from ethyl acetate

[0150] In some embodiments, formulas I and / or II can be crystallized directly from ethyl acetate (for example, as described in Example 5 below). In some embodiments, the free bases of formulas I and / or II can be crystallized directly from ethyl acetate without acidifying the aqueous layer and extracting the free bases back into the organic solvent, before basicizing the aqueous layer and extracting the free bases back into the organic solvent. This has the advantage of being easier to operate than recrystallization from methanol and / or in some cases. It may also have the advantage of using less organic solvent while still maintaining the purity of the final product (i.e., formulas I and / or II).

[0151] As a result, in some embodiments, this disclosure is as follows: (i) Dissolve fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamate in ethyl acetate to form a solution; (ii) Add benzenesulfonic acid to the ethyl acetate solution of the fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamate; and, (iii) The obtained fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamatebenzenesulfonate is filtered. The present invention provides a method for preparing polymorphs (e.g., form II) of fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamatebenzenesulfonate, including the above.

[0152] In some embodiments, benzenesulfonic acid is added as a solution in ethyl acetate. In some embodiments, benzenesulfonic acid is added at a temperature of about 8–12°C. In some embodiments, this method further includes cooling the mixture of fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamate and benzenesulfonic acid to about 0–5°C. Thus, in some embodiments, crystallization from ethyl acetate is reactive crystallization. In some embodiments, the water content in the ethyl acetate free base solution before adding the benzenesulfonic acid / ethyl acetate solution is in the range of 1.0–1.3%.

[0153] Synthesis of Fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamatebenzenesulfonate (Formula I) As shown in Scheme 1 below, fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamate benzenesulfonate can be produced by treating fumagyl-6-yl, p-nitrophenyl carbonate with an excess amount of trans-1,4-diaminocyclohexane. The free base product is finally extracted in MTBE and treated with benzenesulfonic acid as shown in Example 1 below. Scheme 1. Synthesis of fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamatebenzenesulfonate from fumagyl-6-yl, p-nitrophenyl carbonate. [ka]

[0154] While not intended to imply theoretical constraints, the free base form of formula I, i.e., fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamate, is inherently unstable due to the presence of both the primary amine and the two epoxides. Furthermore, the hemi-tartrate of formula I (not shown) was found to contain significant amounts of the autocondensation products, compounds 2 and 3, as well as the hydrolysis product, compound 4, as shown above. The hemi-tartrate and benzenesulfonate also contained impurities associated with compound 5 (shown above), which is the starting material for fumagiline (a natural product). Extensive experimental studies have not been able to reduce the impurity levels in the hemi-tartrate to pharmaceutically acceptable levels. Therefore, the fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamate benzenesulfonate and its polymorphs (e.g., form II) of this disclosure are understood to be more stable than the corresponding hemi-tartrate and free base.

[0155] In contrast to the free base and other salt forms described above, the polymorphs described herein (e.g., form II) are stable at standard temperatures and pressures established, for example, by ICH standards for the evaluation of pharmaceutical substances. Therefore, the polymorphs described herein can be used as stable chemical intermediates, as shown below.

[0156] In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides the reactive crystallization of compounds of formula I from the corresponding free bases described in Example 1 and / or Example 5. This method avoids the isolation of free base epoxides that undergo autocondensation in some embodiments. Use of Fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamatebenzenesulfonate

[0157] Fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamatebenzenesulfonate (Formula I) is useful as an intermediate in the synthesis of polymer conjugate derivatives of fumagilol or fumagiline, such as the compound of Formula III: [ka]

[0159] Compound III can be prepared from compound I according to Scheme 2 below. Formula I is treated with HPMA copolymer (which itself is bonded to an amino acid chain) as shown in Scheme 2 below. The amino acid chain has a suitable leaving group (LG, e.g., para-nitrophenyl), and the reaction is carried out in the presence of a suitable solvent (e.g., DMF). Scheme 2. Example of preparation of compound I from formulas I to III. [ka]

[0160] Certain impurities during the synthesis of compounds of formula I or II, such as compounds 2, 3, 4, and 5 mentioned above, can also be reacted in the same manner as those of formula I or II and bound to the polymer. This can interfere with the reaction and reduce the purity of formula III because polymer-bound impurities are difficult to remove. The polymorphs of this application, as described above, have high purity and contain particularly small amounts of compounds 2, 3, 4, and 5. Therefore, the polymorphs of this application are particularly suitable as intermediates for the preparation of the compounds and can be used to produce formula III in good yield and high purity. Not to imply being bound by theory, the use of salts presented herein (e.g., formula I or formula II) as intermediates for compounds of formula III may provide higher yield and higher purity compared to the use of the corresponding free bases.

[0161] Compounds of formula I or formula II and the polymorphs of this application may be useful for inhibiting MetAP2. In some embodiments, compounds of formula I or formula II or the polymorphs of this application can be used as MetAP2 inhibitors. Thus, compounds of formula I or formula II or the polymorphs of this application (e.g., morph II, morph A) can be used to treat diseases or conditions in which MetAP2 is involved (e.g., onset, regulation, and / or progression of disease or symptoms), such as cancer (e.g., hematological cancers such as lymphoma). For example, Figure 15 shows the effects of the compounds of this disclosure on cancer cells. Figure 15A shows the effect of formula I on B-cell lymphoma cells as a concentration function. Figure 15B shows the effect of formula I on mantle cell lymphoma cells as a concentration function.

[0164] When providing one or more compounds or polymorphs of this application to a mammal, the dosage of the compound or polymorph administered depends on the mammal's age, weight, height, sex, general medical condition, prior medical history, disease progression, tumor burden, route of administration, prescription, etc. For example, an appropriate dose of the compounds of this disclosure for a mammal requiring the treatment described herein ranges from about 0.01 mg to about 2000 mg of the compound per kilogram of body weight. Furthermore, in the case of Formula II, due to the effect of binding to the polymer, the drug may be administered at a lower dose than typically used in the treatment of a particular disorder. Surprisingly, in some embodiments, the polymer conjugates of this disclosure are more active on a weight / weight basis than the corresponding low molecules.

[0165] This disclosure is further illustrated by the following examples, but should not be construed as limiting the scope or idea of ​​the specific procedures described herein. It should be understood that these examples are provided to illustrate specific embodiments and do not limit the scope of this disclosure. It should be further understood that various other embodiments, modifications, and equivalents that can be suggested to those skilled in the art without departing from the intent of this disclosure and / or the appended claims may be given to the means.

[0180] Synthesis and Reaction Crystallization of Fumagillin-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl) Carbamate Benzenesulfonate in Example 1

Chemical formula

[0181] A solution of trans-1,4-diaminocyclohexane (102.2 g, 895 mmol, 4.9 equivalents) dissolved in ethyl acetate (2.8 L) was cooled to 0-5°C. Fumagyl-6-yl p-nitrophenyl carbonate (80.8 g, 181 mmol, 1 equivalent) was dissolved in ethyl acetate (3.2 L) and added to the stirred trans-1,4-diaminocyclohexane solution over 30-90 minutes while maintaining the temperature at 0-5°C. Under in-process control by HPLC-UV, the reaction mixture was stirred at 0-5°C for at least 120 minutes until the carbonate concentration was less than 2% of the starting concentration. The batch was filtered to remove solid by-products, and the solid was washed with ethyl acetate (2 × 1.2 L). The ethyl acetate solution was washed with water (0.5 L), and the aqueous phase was discarded. Ethyl acetate was extracted with a solution of water (1.6 L) and 10% citric acid (0.24 L). The pH of the aqueous phase was approximately 6, and the ethyl acetate was discarded. The aqueous solution was adjusted to pH 10.3 using 1N sodium carbonate (0.87 L). The product in the form of a free base was extracted into MTBE (4 × 1.6 L). The organic phase was dried with sodium sulfate (4 × 128 g) as a drying agent. The organic extracts were combined and filtered to remove the drying agent. The drying agent was washed with MTBE (1.4 L). Fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamate (free base) in MTBE was cooled to 0-5°C, and fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamate benzenesulfonate (0.8 g) was added as a seed. While maintaining the batch at 0-5°C, a solution of benzenesulfonic acid (17.7 g, 0.62 equivalents) in MTBE (0.43 L) was slowly added. The batch was cooled to -20°C. The solid was collected by filtration, washed with MTBE (0.5 L), and dried under reduced pressure at 35°C or below to obtain fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamatebenzenesulfonate (68.3 g, 62%, formula I). Example 2: Recrystallization of Fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamatebenzenesulfonate

[0182] A stirred suspension of fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamatebenzenesulfonate (68.3 g, 118 mmole, Formula I) in methanol (200 mL) was heated at 40°C until a clear solution was obtained. While maintaining the batch temperature at 40°C, MTBE (250 mL) was slowly added until the solution became cloudy. The batch was cooled to 35°C over 1 hour. A seed of fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamatebenzenesulfonate (684 mg, 1.2 mmol, 1 wt%) was added. The batch was cooled in 5°C steps, with 30 minutes allowed at each step and held at 2–8°C for 10 minutes until the batch reached 2–8°C. Additional MTBE (total 8.8 volume) was added over 60 minutes, and the batch was held at 2–8°C for at least 60 minutes. The solid was collected by filtration, washed with MTBE (410 mL), and dried under reduced pressure at 35°C or below to obtain the desired product (64.6 g, 95%) as a polymorph of form II. Example 3. Cooling crystallization of fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamatebenzenesulfonate

[0183] Fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamatebenzenesulfonate (8.1992 g) was dissolved in 39 mL of MTBE:methanol (50:50) to obtain an initial concentration of approximately 210 mg / mL. The solution was stirred at 50°C for 30 minutes and monitored by focused beam reflectance measurement (FBRM) to ensure dissolution. The solution was cooled to 5°C at a rate of 0.2°C / min. At 37°C, 0.08 g (approximately 1%) of the seed material was gently ground using a mortar and pestle and added to the mixture. A sample was taken when the solution temperature reached 5°C, and MTBE was added at a rate of 30 mL / hour until 30 mL of MTBE had been added. A second sample was taken, and the addition of MTBE was continued until 60 mL had been added. Crystallization was then stirred for a further 15 minutes. The final slurry was filtered, and the obtained material was vacuum-dried at 40°C for approximately 16 hours.

[0184] Figure 3 shows the XRPD spectra of the substances produced by the above procedure. Figure 3A shows the XRPD spectrum of the substance from the first sample (i.e., before the addition of further MTBE), and Figure 3B shows the XRPD spectrum of the substance from the second sample (i.e., after the addition of 30 mL of MTBE). Figure 3C shows the XRPD spectrum of the dried final product. Example 4: Antisolvent crystallization of fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamatebenzenesulfonate

[0185] Fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamatebenzenesulfonate (8.0514 g) was dissolved in 39 mL of MTBE:methanol (50:50) to obtain an initial concentration of approximately 210 mg / mL. The solution was stirred at 50°C for 30 minutes and monitored by focused beam reflectance measurement (FBRM) to ensure dissolution. The MTBE was added to the container at a rate of 30 mL / hour. After adding 10.4 mL of MTBE, 0.08 g (approximately 1%) of the seed material was gently ground in a mortar and pestle and added to the mixture. A sample was taken after adding 30 mL of MTBE. The addition of MTBE was continued, and a second sample was taken after adding 60 mL of MTBE. The solution was then cooled to 5°C at a rate of 0.2 °C / min. The crystallized product was then stirred for a further 15 minutes. The final slurry was filtered, and the resulting material was vacuum-dried at 40°C for approximately 16 hours.

[0186] Figure 4 shows the XRPD spectra of the substances produced by the above procedure. Figure 4A shows the XRPD spectrum of the substance from the first sample (i.e., after the addition of approximately 30 ml of MTBE), and Figure 4B shows the XRPD spectrum of the substance from the second sample (i.e., after the addition of approximately 60 ml of MTBE). Figure 4C shows the XRPD spectrum of the dried final product. Example 5: Synthesis of Fumagyl-6-yl N-(Trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamatebenzenesulfonate and crystallization from ethyl acetate

[0187] Fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamatebenzenesulfonate was prepared as shown below. The procedure described in Table 17 below demonstrates that the compound of formula I can be directly purified without first acidifying the free base of formula I and extracting it into the aqueous layer, as described in Example 1, before extracting the free base returned to the organic phase by basicizing the aqueous layer. [Table 20]

[0188] As shown in Table 17 above, the water content in step 18 is maintained at 1–1.3%. While not intended to imply theoretical constraints, maintaining the water content within this range helps to promote the direct crystallization of the compound of formula I from ethyl acetate with good purity (e.g., over 95%). As shown in step 29, this method increased the yield by approximately 10–15% compared to the method of Example 1.

[0189] The quantities of the substances used in the above procedure are shown in Table 18 below. Table 18. Amount of substance in the synthesis of fumagyl-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamatebenzenesulfonate [Table 21]

[0190] As shown in Table 18, benzenesulfonic acid monohydrate (i.e., approximately 12-13% water and approximately 1-2% impurities) was used in step 20. Although not constrained by theory, it was found that formula I was obtained with the highest yield and highest purity when approximately 0.78-0.8 equivalents of benzenesulfonic acid were used.

[0191] While not intended to imply theoretical constraints, the trituration and washing of ethyl acetate in steps 26 and 27 were performed to reduce the water content to an acceptable level before drying, minimizing the risk of water splitting of formula I. In-Process Control for the Synthesis of Fumagillol-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamate Benzenesulfonate

[0192] The HPLC conditions used in the above examples are specified below: [Table 22]

[0193] Table 19 below shows the results under in-process control as high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) measurements for various batches of fumagillol-6-yl N-(trans-4-aminocyclohexyl)carbamate benzenesulfonate (Formula I). Formula I had a retention time of 16.18 minutes and a relative retention time of 1. Various impurities including Compound 2 and Compound 4 were defined by the retention times in Table 19.

[0194] As shown in Table 19, Lots 1-3 are control standards. Lot 1 was manufactured by the method of Example 1. Lots 2 and Lot 3 are comparative batches, and Lot 3 was recrystallized using methanol and methyl tert-butyl ether.

[0195] Lots 4-10 are in-process controls measured during the process described in Example 5 above. Lot 4 gives HPLC data taken 1 hour after Step 11 in Table 17. Lot 5 gives HPLC data after drying with Na2SO4 in Step 17. Lot 6 gives HPLC data after filtration in Step 25. Lot 7 gives HPLC data after washing Formula I once with ethyl acetate. Lot 8 gives HPLC data after washing Formula I twice with ethyl acetate. Lot 9 gives HPLC data after filtering and drying Formula I for 10 hours. Lot 10 gives HPLC data after filtering and drying Formula I for 24 hours. As described in the analysis of Lot 10, the purity of Formula I after 24 hours of drying was the same as that of Lot 1 manufactured by the method of Example 1 without recrystallization from methanol / methyl tert-butyl ether. [Table 23-1] [Table 23-2] Example 7 - Inhibition of hematological malignancy cell lines of formula I

[0196] The maximum median inhibitory concentration (IC) of formula I as a single agent against a panel of human hematological tumor cell lines. 50 The following was investigated: All cell lines were grown in their respective appropriate growth media supplemented with 5-10% FBS and cultured at 37°C in a 5% CO2 atmosphere. Single-drug research Cell viability assay - 72 hours of continuous exposure

[0197] 1.0 hour: Cells were seeded in 200 μL of growth medium in a 96-well microtiter plate. The cells were incubated in a humidified incubator at 37°C for 24 hours.

[0198] 2.24 hours: The drug dose of the test agent was obtained using an HPD300 digital dispenser. Briefly, the digital dispenser added the test agent in the exact volume of DMSO solvent to the culture medium containing the wells. The control wells were given the same volume of DMSO as the test agent wells. After drug administration, the cells were exposed in a humidified incubator at 37°C for 72 hours at the concentrations and dilutions listed in Table 20.

[0199] 3. 72 hours: After 72 hours of exposure, 100 μl of a 1:1 mixture of sterile water and CellTiter-Glo® reagent was added to each well. The plate was incubated at room temperature for 60 minutes. After incubation, luminescence was recorded using a light meter. The results are shown in Table 21 and Figures 15A, 15B, 15C, and 15D below. [Table 24] [Table 25] endpoint

[0200] I C 50 Decision: Data are expressed as the cell proliferation rate of the untreated (vehicle) control, calculated from the luminescence signal. Cell viability was determined by dividing the average luminescence value of the test drug by the average luminescence value of the untreated control. Inhibitory concentrations of the test drug and control were estimated by curve fitting of the data using nonlinear regression analysis with Prism 6 software (GraphPad Software, Inc.).

[0201] Evenly While this disclosure has been described in relation to the specific embodiments described above, many alternatives, modifications, and other variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art. All such alternatives, modifications, and variations will fall within the intent and scope of this disclosure.
