Description

[0001] CRYSTAL FORMS OF A PARP1 INHIBITOR AND PREPARATION THEREOF CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0001] This application claims the benefit of Chinese Provisional Application No.202410573249.5, entitled “Crystal Forms of a PARP1 Inhibitor and Preparation Thereof,” filed May 9, 2024, the entirety of which is hereby incorporated herein by reference. TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] The present disclosure relates to crystal forms of PARP1 inhibitor 5-(4-((9-fluoro-4-oxo-4,5-dihydropyrazolo[1,5-a]quinoxalin-7-yl)methyl)piperazin-1-yl)-N,6- dimethylpicolinamide and preparation thereof. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0003] Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP1) catalyzes the addition of poly(ADP-ribose)to the target protein molecule using NAD+, which is an important process in DNA repair. This is an essential process for maintaining DNA and chromosome integrity and stability, and for ensuring the survival of mammalian cells. PARP1 catalyzes most of the intracellular ADP-ribose polymerization reactions, although PARP2 and other subtypes also have this function. PARP1 knockout mice do not have the repair function for single-stranded DNA damage (Krishnakumar R and Kraus WL, Mol Cell, 2010, 39(1): 8-24). At the same time, cancer cells with DNA repair defects, such as BRCA1 (breast cancer 1) or BRCA2 (breast cancer 2) deficiency, are particularly sensitive to PARP1 inhibitors.

[0004] The catalytic domain of PARP2 is very similar to that of PARP1. PARP2 is alsofound to have similar functions to PARP1 and is involved in the repair of DNA damage through the base excision repair (BER) mechanism (Schreiber et al., 2002 J Biol Chem 277: 23028-23036). Marketed PARP1 inhibitors, such as olaparib, niraparib, talazoparib and rucaparib, not only have inhibitory activities against PARP1, but also have similar inhibitory activities against PARP2. Based on the results of clinical trials, the therapeutic effects of these marketed PARP1 inhibitors are comparable whereas their toxicity profiles are quite different. For example, talazoparib has toxicity similar to chemotherapy drugs such as hair loss. Talazoparib also shows more potent inhibitory activity against TNKS1 / 2 (tankyrase 1 or tankyrase 2) than other PARP1 inhibitors (PARP1i) in biochemical assays (Ryan et al., 2021 J Biol Chem 296: 100251 / 1-100251 / 13). TNKS1 and TNKS2 share 83% sequence identity overall, and their catalytic domain sequences are 89% identical. They play roles in DNA repair, telomere maintenance, and Wnt / β-catenin signaling. Targeting PARP1s other than PARP1 may be the reason why PARP1 inhibitors cause off-targeted toxicity, such as hair loss and diarrhea. In addition, inhibition of PARP2 activity has been found to lead to hematotoxicity (Farrés et al., 2013 Blood 122: 44-54; Farrés et al., 2015 Cell Death and Differentiation 22: 1144-1157). The toxicity of these PARP1 inhibitors limits their clinical application as well as their combination with other targeted drugs.

[0005] Therefore, the development of highly selective PARP1 inhibitors may reduce bothmechanism-related and non-mechanism-related toxicities. Currently, several PARP1 selective inhibitors are in clinical development.

[0006] WO2023025307 discloses the following compound of Formula I (also referred toherein as “the compound of Formula (I)”), 5-(4-((9-fluoro-4-oxo-4,5-dihydropyrazolo[1,5- a]quinoxalin-7-yl)methyl)piperazin-1-yl)-N,6-dimethylpicolinamide, as a PARP1 selective inhibitor and its preparation method, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

[0007] Certain crystal have beneficialproperties, for example, solubility, stability, bioavailability, impurity profile, filtration properties, drying properties, and lack of hygroscopicity, and may be easier to handle, micronize and tablet. In addition, there remains a need for alternative or improved methods of synthetic preparation, especially for large-scale, environmentally friendly production. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0068] In the following description, a certain amount of specific details are set forth inorder to provide a thorough understanding of various embodiments of the present disclosure. However, those skilled in the art will understand that the present disclosure can be practiced without these details. The following description of several embodiments is based on the understanding that the present disclosure is regarded as an example of the claimed subject matter, and is not intended to limit the appended claims to the specific embodiments shown. The headings used throughout this disclosure are provided for convenience only and should not be construed as limiting the claims in any way. The embodiment shown under any heading can be combined with the embodiment shown under any other heading. II. Definition

[0069] Where an aspect or embodiment is described as comprising certain elements orfeatures, the present disclosure should be understood to also disclose, as alternative aspects or embodiments, the corresponding aspects or embodiments that consist of or consist essentially of those same elements or features.

[0070] Reference throughout this specification to "one embodiment" or "anembodiment" means that a specific feature, structure, or characteristic described in conjunction with the embodiment is included in at least one embodiment of the present disclosure. Therefore, the appearances of the phrases "in one embodiment" or "in an embodiment" in various places throughout this specification do not necessarily all refer to the same embodiment. In addition, specific features, structures, or characteristics can be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.

[0071] "Pharmaceutically acceptable excipients" include but are not limited to anyadjuvants, carriers, glidants, sweeteners, diluents, preservatives, dyes / colorants, flavor enhancers, surfactants, wetting agents, dispersing agents, suspending agents, stabilizers, isotonic agents, solvents or emulsifiers, which have been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (U.S. FDA) or Chinese National Medical Products Administration (CN NMPA) or other relevant agencies as acceptable for use in humans or livestock.

[0072] "Pharmaceutical composition" refers to a formulation that comprises an activeingredient (e.g. the compound of Formula (I) and its various forms (amorphous and crystal forms) of the present disclosure), and a vehicle generally accepted in the art for the delivery of a biologically active compound to a mammal (such as a human). Such vehicles include all pharmaceutically acceptable excipients for this purpose.

[0073] Unless otherwise stated, the term "treating" a disease, disorder or condition in asubject (e.g. human, pet, domesticated or veterinary animal) as used herein refers to reversing, reducing, or inhibiting progression in the subject of a disease, disorder or condition or one or more symptoms of the disease, disorder or condition in the subject.

[0074] The term "preventing" a disease, disorder or condition in a subject (e.g. human,pet, domesticated or veterinary animal) as used herein refers to any treatment of a subject that causes one or more clinical symptoms of the disease, disorder or condition not to develop in the subject, or that causes a disease, disorder or condition not to develop in the subject.

[0075] References herein to "about" a value or parameter include (and describe)implementations for the value or parameter itself. For example, description referring to "about X" includes description of "X". In addition, the singular forms "a" and "the" include plural references unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. Thus, for example, reference to "the compound" includes a plurality of such compounds, and reference to "the assay" includes reference to one or more assays and equivalents thereof known to those skilled in the art.

[0076] Pharmaceutically acceptable: The term “pharmaceutically acceptable,” as usedherein, refers to substances that, within the scope of sound medical judgment, 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, commensurate with a reasonable benefit / risk ratio. Accordingly, pharmaceutically acceptable relates to substances that are not biologically or otherwise undesirable, i.e., the substance can be administered to an individual along with the relevant active compound without causing clinically unacceptable biological effects or interacting in a deleterious manner with any of the other components of the pharmaceutical composition in which it is contained.

[0077] When referring to, for example, XRD or XRPD spectrums, DSC thermograms,DVS graphs or TGA, the term "substantially the same as that shown in..." includes spectrums, thermograms, or graphs which are not necessarily the same as those described herein, but fall within the limits of experimental error or deviation when considered by the person skilled in the art.

[0078] In the present disclosure, for the characteristic powder X-ray diffraction peakposition of the crystal form, the allowable error of the angular position (2θ) is ±0.2°. This error is used when comparing two powder X-ray diffraction spectrums. If a diffraction peak in one image is designated as a certain angular position range of measured peak position ±0.2° (2θ), and a diffraction peak in another image is designated as the other angular position range of measured peak position ±0.2° (2θ), and if these peak ranges overlap, the two peaks are considered to have the same angular position (2θ). For example, if the diffraction peak of an image is determined to be at 5.20°, for comparison, the allowable error allows the peak to be specified in the range of 5.00°-5.40°. If the control peak of the other diffraction spectrum is determined to be at 5.35°, for comparison, the allowable error allows the peak to be specified in the range of 5.15°-5.55°. Because of the overlap between the two peak position ranges, the two compared peaks are considered to have the same angular position (2θ). In some embodiments, the allowable error of the angular position (2θ) is ±0.1°. III. Crystal Form

IV. Pharmaceutical Formulations and Routes of Administration

[0095] The compounds and compositions of the present invention can be delivereddirectly or in pharmaceutical compositions or medicaments along with suitable carriers or excipients, as is well known in the art. Present methods of treatment can comprise administration of an effective amount of a compound of the invention to a subject in need. In a preferred embodiment, the subject is a mammalian subject, and in a most preferred embodiment, the subject is a human subject.

[0096] An effective amount of such compound, composition, or medicament canreadily be determined by routine experimentation, as can the most effective and convenient route of administration, and the most appropriate formulation. Various formulations and drug delivery systems are available in the art. See, e.g., Gennaro, A.R., ed. (1995) Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, supra.

[0097] Suitable routes of administration may, for example, include oral, rectal, topical,nasal, pulmonary, ocular, intestinal, and parenteral administration. Primary routes for parenteral administration include intravenous, intramuscular, and subcutaneous administration. Secondary routes of administration include intraperitoneal, intra- arterial, intra-articular, intracardiac, intracisternal, intradermal, intralesional, intraocular, intrapleural, intrathecal, intrauterine, and intraventricular administration. The indication to be treated, along with the physical, chemical, and biological properties of the drug, dictate the type of formulation and the route of administration to be used, as well as whether local or systemic delivery would be preferred.

[0098] Pharmaceutical dosage forms of a compound of the invention may be providedin an instant release, controlled release, sustained release, or target drug-delivery system. Commonly used dosage forms include, for example, solutions and suspensions, (micro-) emulsions, ointments, gels and patches, liposomes, tablets, dragees, soft or hard shell capsules, suppositories, ovules, implants, amorphous or crystalline powders, aerosols, and lyophilized formulations. Depending on route of administration used, special devices may be required for application or administration of the drug, such as, for example, syringes and needles, inhalers, pumps, injection pens, applicators, or special flasks. Pharmaceutical dosage forms are often composed of the drug, an excipient(s), and a container / closure system. One or multiple excipients, also referred to as inactive ingredients, can be added to a compound of the invention to improve or facilitate manufacturing, stability, administration, and safety of the drug, and can provide a means to achieve a desired drug release profile. Therefore, the type of excipient(s) to be added to the drug can depend on various factors, such as, for example, the physical and chemical properties of the drug, the route of administration, and the manufacturing procedure. Pharmaceutically acceptable excipients are available in the art and include those listed in various pharmacopoeias. See, e.g., the U.S. Pharmacopeia (USP), Japanese Pharmacopoeia (JP), European Pharmacopoeia (EP), and British pharmacopeia (BP); the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (www.fda.gov) Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CEDR) publications, e.g., Inactive Ingredient Guide (1996); Ash and Ash, Eds. (2002) Handbook of Pharmaceutical Additives, Synapse Information Resources, Inc., Endicott NY; etc.).

[0099] Pharmaceutical dosage forms of a compound of the present invention may bemanufactured by any of the methods well-known in the art, such as, for example, by conventional mixing, sieving, dissolving, melting, granulating, dragee-making, tabletting, suspending, extruding, spray-drying, levigating, emulsifying, (nano / micro-) encapsulating, entrapping, or lyophilization processes. As noted above, the compositions of the present invention can include one or more physiologically acceptable inactive ingredients that facilitate processing of active molecules into preparations for pharmaceutical use.

[0100] Proper formulation is dependent upon the desired route of administration. Forintravenous injection, for example, the composition may be formulated in aqueous solution, if necessary using physiologically compatible buffers, including, for example, phosphate, histidine, or citrate for adjustment of the formulation pH, and a tonicity agent, such as, for example, sodium chloride or dextrose. For transmucosal or nasal administration, semisolid, liquid formulations, or patches may be preferred, possibly containing penetration enhancers. Such penetrants are generally known in the art. For oral administration, the compounds can be formulated in liquid or solid dosage forms, and as instant or controlled / sustained release formulations. Suitable dosage forms for oral ingestion by a subject include tablets, pills, dragees, hard and soft shell capsules, liquids, gels, syrups, slurries, suspensions, and emulsions. The compounds may also be formulated in rectal compositions, such as suppositories or retention enemas, e.g., containing conventional suppository bases such as cocoa butter or other glycerides.

[0101] Solid oral dosage forms can be obtained using excipients, which may includefillers, disintegrants, binders (dry and wet), dissolution retardants, lubricants, glidants, antiadherants, cationic exchange resins, wetting agents, antioxidants, preservatives, coloring, and flavoring agents. These excipients can be of synthetic or natural source. Examples of such excipients include cellulose derivatives, citric acid, dicalcium phosphate, gelatine, magnesium carbonate, magnesium / sodium lauryl sulfate, mannitol, polyethylene glycol, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, silicates, silicium dioxide, sodium benzoate, sorbitol, starches, stearic acid or a salt thereof, sugars (i.e. dextrose, sucrose, lactose, etc.), talc, tragacanth mucilage, vegetable oils (hydrogenated), and waxes. Ethanol and water may serve as granulation aides. In certain instances, coating of tablets with, for example, a taste- masking film, a stomach acid resistant film, or a release-retarding film is desirable. Natural and synthetic polymers, in combination with colorants, sugars, and organic solvents or water, are often used to coat tablets, resulting in dragees. When a capsule is preferred over a tablet, the drug powder, suspension, or solution thereof can be delivered in a compatible hard or soft shell capsule.

[0102] In one embodiment, the compounds of the present invention can beadministered topically, such as through a skin patch, a semi-solid, or a liquid formulation, for example a gel, a (micro-) emulsion, an ointment, a solution, a (nano / micro)-suspension, or a foam. The penetration of the drug into the skin and underlying tissues can be regulated, for example, using penetration enhancers; the appropriate choice and combination of lipophilic, hydrophilic, and amphiphilic excipients, including water, organic solvents, waxes, oils, synthetic and natural polymers, surfactants, emulsifiers; by pH adjustment; and use of complexing agents. Other techniques, such as iontophoresis, may be used to regulate skin penetration of a compound of the invention. Transdermal or topical administration would be preferred, for example, in situations in which local delivery with minimal systemic exposure is desired.

[0103] For administration by inhalation, or administration to the nose, the compoundsfor use according to the present invention are conveniently delivered in the form of a solution, suspension, emulsion, or semisolid aerosol from pressurized packs, or a nebuliser, usually with the use of a propellant, e.g., halogenated carbons derived from methane and ethane, carbon dioxide, or any other suitable gas. For topical aerosols, hydrocarbons like butane, isobutene, and pentane are useful. In the case of a pressurized aerosol, the appropriate dosage unit may be determined by providing a valve to deliver a metered amount. Capsules and cartridges of, for example, gelatin, for use in an inhaler or insufflator, may be formulated. These typically contain a powder mix of the compound and a suitable powder base such as lactose or starch.

[0104] Compounds and compositions formulated for parenteral administration byinjection are usually sterile and can be presented in unit dosage forms, e.g., in ampoules, syringes, injection pens, or in multi-dose containers, the latter usually containing a preservative. The compositions may take such forms as suspensions, solutions, or emulsions in oily or aqueous vehicles, and may contain formulatory agents, such as buffers, tonicity agents, viscosity enhancing agents, surfactants, suspending and dispersing agents, antioxidants, biocompatible polymers, chelating agents, and preservatives. Depending on the injection site, the vehicle may contain water, a synthetic or vegetable oil, and / or organic co-solvents. In certain instances, such as with a lyophilized product or a concentrate, the parenteral formulation would be reconstituted or diluted prior to administration. Depot formulations, providing controlled or sustained release of a compound of the invention, may include injectable suspensions of nano / micro particles or nano / micro or non-micronized crystals. Polymers such as poly(lactic acid), poly(glycolic acid), or copolymers thereof, can serve as controlled / sustained release matrices, in addition to others well known in the art. Other depot delivery systems may be presented in form of implants and pumps requiring incision.

[0105] Suitable carriers for intravenous injection for the compounds of the inventionare well- known in the art and include water-based solutions containing a base, such as, for example, sodium hydroxide, to form an ionized compound; sucrose or sodium chloride as a tonicity agent; and a buffer, for example, a buffer that contains phosphate or histidine. Co-solvents, such as, for example, polyethylene glycols, may be added. These water-based systems are effective at dissolving compounds of the invention and produce low toxicity upon systemic administration. The proportions of the components of a solution system may be varied considerably, without destroying solubility and toxicity characteristics. Furthermore, the identity of the components may be varied. For example, low-toxicity surfactants, such as polysorbates or poloxamers, may be used, as can polyethylene glycol or other co-solvents, biocompatible polymers such as polyvinyl pyrrolidone may be added, and other sugars and polyols may substitute for dextrose.

[0106] A therapeutically effective dose can be estimated initially using a variety oftechniques well- known in the art. Initial doses used in animal studies may be based on effective concentrations established in cell culture assays. Dosage ranges appropriate for human subjects can be determined, for example, using data obtained from animal studies and cell culture assays. In certain some embodiments, a compound of the disclosure is formulated for oral administration. An exemplary dose of a compound of the disclosure in a pharmaceutical formulation for oral administration is from about 0.5 to about 10 mg / kg body weight of subject. In some embodiments, a pharmaceutical formulation comprises from about 0.7 to about 5.0 mg / kg body weight of subject, or alternatively, from about 1.0 to about 2.5 mg / kg body weight of subject. A typical dosing regimen for oral administration would be administration of the pharmaceutical formulation for oral administration three times per week, two times per week, once per week or daily.

[0107] An effective amount or a therapeutically effective amount or dose of an agent,e.g., a compound of the invention, refers to that amount of the agent or compound that results in amelioration of symptoms or a prolongation of survival in a subject. Toxicity and therapeutic efficacy of such molecules can be determined by standard pharmaceutical procedures in cell cultures or experimental animals, e.g., by determining the LD50 (the dose lethal to 50 % of the population) and the ED50 (the dose therapeutically effective in 50% of the population). The dose ratio of toxic to therapeutic effects is the therapeutic index, which can be expressed as the ratio LD50 / ED50. Agents that exhibit high therapeutic indices are preferred.

[0108] The effective amount or therapeutically effective amount is the amount of thecompound or pharmaceutical composition that will elicit the biological or medical response of a tissue, system, animal or human that is being sought by the researcher, veterinarian, medical doctor or other clinician. Dosages particularly fall within a range of circulating concentrations that includes the ED50 with little or no toxicity. Dosages may vary within this range depending upon the dosage form employed and / or the route of administration utilized. The exact formulation, route of administration, dosage, and dosage interval should be chosen according to methods known in the art, in view of the specifics of a subject's condition.

[0109] Dosage amount and interval may be adjusted individually to provide plasmalevels of the active moiety that are sufficient to achieve the desired effects; i.e., the minimal effective concentration (MEC). The MEC will vary for each compound but can be estimated from, for example, in vitro data and animal experiments. Dosages necessary to achieve the MEC will depend on individual characteristics and route of administration. In cases of local administration or selective uptake, the effective local concentration of the drug may not be related to plasma concentration.

[0110] The amount of compound or composition administered may be dependent on avariety of factors, including the sex, age, and weight of the subject being treated, the severity of the affliction, the manner of administration, and the judgment of the prescribing physician.

[0111] The present compounds and compositions may, if desired, be presented in apack or dispenser device containing one or more unit dosage forms containing the active ingredient. Such a pack or device may, for example, comprise metal or plastic foil, such as a blister pack; or glass and rubber stoppers such as in vials. The pack or dispenser device may be accompanied by instructions for administration. Compositions comprising a compound of the invention formulated in a compatible pharmaceutical carrier may also be prepared, placed in an appropriate container, and labeled for treatment of an indicated condition.

[0112] These and other embodiments of the present invention will readily occur to those of ordinary skill in the art in view of the disclosure herein and are specifically contemplated. IV. Preparation method

Example 1: Polymorph Screening and Suspension Competitive Experiments

[0173] The starting material of the compound of Formula (I) used for polymorphscreening was prepared as follows: about 6g of the compound of Formula (I) was dissolved in DMSO (100mL), stirred at 80°C for 1 hour, cooled to room temperature and poured into ice water (1 L) to precipitate the solids.

The solid obtained by filtration was lyophilized to give the starting material. The X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) result showed the starting material was crystalline, which was named as Crystal form A as shown in Figure 20.

The solution was extracted with EtOAc. The aqueous phase was collected and adjusted to pH 7 to 9 with NaHCO3 aqueous phase and solid precipitated out. The mixture was filtered and the filter cake was dried to give the product. It had an XRPD diffraction peak basically consistent with that of crystal form A, but additional diffraction peaks presented, and additional diffraction peaks disappeared after heating the sample to 170°C and cooling to room temperature.

[0176] Slurry competitive experiments were performed for the crystal form A and theother crystal form of the preceding paragraph to investigate the inter-conversion relationship under different temperatures / solvents, room temperature and water activity conditions. The test operation was as follows: approximately 5 mg of compound crystal form A of Formula I was weighed in each solvent, stirred and balanced at room temperature / 50 ºC for 2 hours, and then filtered. The filtrate was transferred to a small bottle containing compound crystal form A of Formula I and other crystal forms, and continue to suspend and stir at room temperature / 50 ºC before testing XRPD.

[0179] The results showed that the crystal form A has relatively low solubility in mostsingle and binary solvent systems tested, except in acetic acid and hexafluoroisopropanol. Example 3: Crystallization method by using hexafluoroisopropanol / other solvents

[0180] The solubility of the crystal form A in hexafluoroisopropanol was high (morethan 200 mg / mL at 25℃) (as shown in Example 2). Based on that result, hexafluoroisopropanol was used as a solvent, and crystal form A was recrystallized with methyl tert-butyl ether, water and methanol as counter solvents, respectively. The steps for the recrystallization experiment of hexafluoroisopropanol / water system were as follows: the crystal form A was dissolved in hexafluoroisopropanol and the solution was stirred at 30oC. Water and crystal seeds were added, and the mixture was stirred. Additional water was added and the mixture was continuously stirred. Then the mixture was cooled down to 10oC, stirred, filtered, washed and dried to give the product.

[0181] The recrystallization experiment steps of hexafluoroisopropanol / methyl tert-butyl ether system and hexafluoroisopropanol / methanol system were similar to those of the above hexafluoroisopropanol / water system. The experimental results are shown in Table 4 below. Table 4: Crystallization results of hexafluoroisopropanol / other solvent systems Yield / Crystallization System XRPD Purity Residual solvent Mother liquid loss crystal form A hexafluoroisopropanol / water 100% / with additional 99.91% / (1V / 3V) 0.4% diffraction peaks hexafluoroisopropanol / methyl 88% / MTBE: crystal form A 99.21% tert-butyl ether (1V / 3V) 0.1% 7500 ppm Methanol: 1772 ppm hexafluoroisopropanol / methanol 97.9% / crystal form A 99.96% (1V / 3V) 0.3% Hexafluoro- isopropanol: 20419 ppm

[0182] The XRPD of the product obtained from the crystallization ofhexafluoroisopropanol / water system indicates that crystal form A was obtained, but the XRPD contains additional diffraction peaks. The product crystallized in the system of hexafluoroisopropanol / methyl tert-butyl ether is the crystal form A, and the methyl tert- butyl ether residue in the product is high. The product obtained by crystallization in the hexafluoroisopropanol / methanol system is crystal form A, but the content of the residual hexafluoroisopropanol in the product is high. Example 4: Crystallization method by using acetic acid / other solvents

[0183] The solubility of the crystal form A in acetic acid was high (more than 200mg / mL at 25℃) (as shown in Example 2). Based on that result, acetic acid was used as a solvent, and crystal form A was recrystallized with methyl tert-butyl ether and methanol as counter solvents, respectively. The steps for the recrystallization experiments of acetic acid / methyl tert-butyl ether system, and acetic acid / methanol system were similar to those described in Example 3. The experimental results are shown in Table 5 below. Table 5: Crystallization results of acetic acid / other solvent systems Yield / Crystallization System XRPD Purity Residual solvent Mother liquid loss Methyl tert-butyl ether: 700 ppm Acetic acid / methyl tert-butyl 95.8% / Crystal form A 99.78% ether (1V / 3V) 4.74% Acetic acid: 2191 ppm Methanol: 300 ppm 81.9% / Acetic acid / methanol (1V / 3V) Crystal form A 99.87% 15.84% Acetic acid: 400 ppm

[0184] The products obtained by crystallization in the acetic acid / methyl tert-butylether system and acetic acid / methanol system are both crystal form A, and the content of each residual solvent in the product is minimal.

[0200] Analogous procedures are used to analyze the same material after drying thematerial for 16 hours using e.g. an infrared lamp. The results are shown in Figures 10B (DSC) and 10C (TGA). Example 11: Third Preparation of Form B of the Compound of Formula (I)

[0201] The compound of Formula (I) (1g) was dissolved in aqueous sulfuric acid(0.25M, 10mL) at ambient temperature, and the resulting solution was then washed with dichloromethane (DCM) (10mL). The aqueous solution was added to aqueous ammonia (1.5M, 5mL) to carry out slurry. The resulting solid-liquid mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 1 hour, filtered and dried under an IR lamp to provide the compound of Formula (I) (~0.95g). An example of the XRPD of Form B is shown in Figure 9A. An example of an XRPD spectrum of Form B after 16 hours drying under an IR lamp is shown in Figure 9B. Example 12: Single crystal cultivation and structure analysis of the crystal form A Anhydrate: The single crystals of the crystal form A were obtained from acetic acid (solvent) / 2-MeTHF (anti-solvent) solvent system via liquid-vapor permeation. The single crystal X-ray diffraction SCXRD characterization result indicated the single crystal of the crystal form A belonged to triclinic crystal system and P1̅ space group. The unit cell parameters were determined as {a = 7.5277(2) Å, b = 9.1395(2) Å, c = 16.2025(2) Å, α = 90.5230(10)º, β = 90.508(2)º, γ = 105.180(2)º, V = 1075.71(4) Å3}. Single crystal structure analysis showed the asymmetric unit of the crystal structure was comprised of only one molecule of the compound of Formula (I) as shown in Figure 11, which indicated the single crystal of the crystal form A was an anhydrate. The molecular packing diagrams viewed along the crystallographic a-axis is shown as in Figure 12. There is a small cavity in the lattice that does not contain any crystalline water molecules or other solvent molecules. Hydrate: The single crystals of the crystal form A were obtained from DMSO (solvent) / 2- MeTHF (anti-solvent) solvent system via liquid-vapor permeation and slow evaporation. SCXRD characterization result indicated the single crystal of the crystal form A belonged to triclinic crystal system and P1̅ space group. The unit cell parameters were determined as {a = 7.58340(10) Å, b = 9.1224(2) Å, c = 16.1236(3) Å, α = 90.4750(10)º, β = 90.2170(10)º, γ = 104.760(2)º, V = 1078.55(4) Å3}. Single crystal structure analysis showed the asymmetric unit of the crystal structure was comprised of one molecule of the compound of Formula I, and a crystalline water molecule with a chemical occupancy of about 0.2 in the lattice void as shown in Figure 13, which indicated the single crystal of the crystal form A was a non-stoichiometric hydrate (the molar ratio of the freebase molecule to crystalline water molecule in the single crystal structure is 1:0.2). The molecular packing diagrams viewed along the crystallographic a-axis is shown as in Figure 14.

[0202] The above hydrate and anhydrate have only minuscule differences in structurebut show minor peak drift due to those differences (Figure 15 and Figure 16). The hydrate structure only has 20% occupancy on one water - inferring that a monohydrate would present, but that it was not successfully captured in this structure. The hydrogen- bonding observed in the structure would be viable as a monohydrate. The anhydrate structure is almost identical, with a difference of 0.26% in volume, and nearly identical orientations and packing (Figure 17). Example 13: PARP1 and PARP2 chemiluminescent Assay

[0203] The diluent of recombinant poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 and 2 (PARP1 andPARP2) (40 ng enzyme / well) and the compounds to be tested were mixed, respectively.

The plates were incubated for 30 minutes at room temperature. Finally, the plates were treated with streptavidin-HRP followed by addition of the ELISA ECL substrate to produce chemiluminescence that can be measured using a chemiluminescence reader.

The supernatant was discarded, and the cell pellet were re-suspended in complete medium. The cells were seeded into a culture dish at an appropriate proportion, and then cultured in a 5% CO2incubator at 37℃. The assay was carried out when the cells were in optimum condition and the confluence was reached 80%. Cells in the logarithmic growth phase were taken to centrifugate, and the culture supernatant was removed. The cells were resuspended in refresh complete medium and counted.

Then fresh medium of 195 uL / well and 5μL / well of 40^ test compound solution as mentioned above were added into the 96 well plate, respectively. Finally, the plate was incubated for 7 days in a 37℃ 5% CO2 incubator. The medium containing compound was changed on the fourth day. After 7 days, 20μL of CCK-8 was added to each well and shaken gently, then was cultured for 4 hours. The plate was shaken for 5min after incubation. the absorbance values of 450nm or 650nm wavelengths were recorded respectively (OD = absorbance value of 450nm - absorbance value of 650nm) by using the multifunction readout instrument.

[0207] Data were analyzed by software GraphPad Prism 6.0.
