Description
[0001] CRYSTALLINE FORMS OF AN ALC1 INHIBITOR USEFUL IN THE TREATMENT OF CANCER
[0002] The present invention relates to novel crystal forms of sodium 7-(4-bromophenyl)-2-oxo-9- (trifhioromethyl)-l,2-dihydropyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4-olate hydrate, processes for the manufacture thereof and pharmaceutical compositions comprising them. These compounds are useful in treating proliferative diseases, particularly cancer.
[0003] Background of the Invention
[0004] Disruption of the chromatin remodeling forces of ALC1 through active small molecule agents enables safe, highly selective cancer therapy. Inhibition of ALC1 in cells with deficiencies in the homologous recombination repair pathway, including mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2, leads to cell cycle arrest and cell death. Furthermore, ALC1 inhibitors trap PARP enzymes on DNA, potentiating the efficacy of PARP inhibitors. ALC1 inhibitors provide an alternative approach to the treatment of germline or acquired BRCA1 / BRCA2 deficiency, including tumors defined by “BRCAness” or other changes in DNA repair networks while also providing novel therapeutic approaches where ALC1 is amplified as an oncogene. Small molecule inhibitors of the helicase ALC1 (CHD1L) which are suitable for the use in treating proliferative diseases are known from WO 2022 / 117782 Al. One of the most promising compounds disclosed in WO 2022 / 117782 Al is 7-(4-bromophenyl)-2-oxo-9-(trifluoromethyl)-l,2-dihydro-4- hydroxypyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin. A synthesis scheme to prepare this compound is also disclosed in this document.
[0005] For pharmaceutical purposes, the active ingredient should preferably be used in crystalline form. Following the general disclosure of WO 2022 / 117782 Al, the synthesis of 7-(4-bromophenyl)-2-oxo-9- (trifluoromethyl)-l,2-dihydro-4-hydroxypyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin results in the sodium salt thereof. Sodium 7-(4-bromophenyl)-2-oxo-9-(trifluoromethyl)-l,2-dihydropyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2- d]pyrimidin-4-olate hydrate is defined by formula (I) below:
[0006] Sodium 7-(4-bromophenyl)-2-oxo-9-(trifluoromethyl)-l,2-dihydropyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2- d]pyrimidin-4-olate hydrate is a synthetic, small molecule inhibitor of the helicase ALC1 (CHD1L) and is thus suitable for the use in treating proliferative diseases. However, this synthesis scheme of WO 2022 / 117782 Al has disadvantageous properties including an inefficient purification resulting in final purities as low as 95 %. In particular, crystallization in the aqueous solvent system resulted in a first polymorphic form (Form C), which however was found to be a low purity hydrate with high weight loss upon drying. Thus, several further crystallization processes were developed to improve the purity, reproducibility, and stability of the final product. In total, 17 polymorph forms were identified during this development process, designated polymorphic Forms A-Q. Despite the large number of well-defined different crystal forms, only two specific polymorphic forms termed, Form B and Form E, surprisingly showed various unexpected advantages over the other forms. These forms, B and E, were found to be stable against polymorphic conversion, in particular under conditions needed for preparing pharmaceutical compositions. Furthermore, Forms B and E are readily produced and purified, are highly uniform, reproducible, and have a high level of stability during storage at 30-60 % relative humidity. Further, the processes for production of Forms B and E have the advantages of higher yield and better filtration after rinsing with eluent. Finally, compared to the other forms found, being well-defined monohydrates, Forms B and E are advantageous over the DMSO solvates Form A, Form G, Form J, and Form K; the DMF solvate Form P and Form I; the 1,4-dioxane solvates Form L and Form M, the acetone solvates Form D and Form Q; the partial hydrate Form O; the isostructural solvate Form F; and the hydrate forms Form C and Form N which contain an undefined equivalency of water (5.2 % and 4.5 % weight loss prior to 150 °C as observed by TGA, respectively). Finally, Forms B and E are advantageous over Form H due to the requirement of drying under nitrogen to produce Form H.

[0037] The third aspect of the present invention relates to a process for preparing a crystalline form of sodium 7-(4-bromophenyl)-2-oxo-9-(trifluoromethyl)-l,2-dihydropyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin- 4-olate hydrate form (Form B) comprising the steps of a) dissolving sodium 7-(4-bromophenyl)-2-oxo-9-(trifluoromethyl)-I,2- dihydropyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-2(IH)-one in DMSO, preferably at about 20-25 °C, b) adding anti-solvent EtOH or EtOH / FEO having about 1 : 1 ratio (v / v), c) maintaining the solution at the same temperature for about 1-24 hours, and d) filtering.
[0038] Generally for the processes described herein, in particular the processes of the third and fourth aspect, sodium 7-(4-bromophenyl)-2-oxo-9-(trifluoromethyl)-l,2-dihydropyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2- d]pyrimidin-2(IH)-one, i.e. the sodium salt of 7-(4-bromophenyl)-2-oxo-9-(trifluoromethyl)-l,2-dihydro- 4-hydroxypyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin, can be obtained as described in WO 2022 / 117782 Al, the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference herein. According to the third aspect, the API (sodium 7-(4-bromophenyl)-2-oxo-9-(trifluoromethyl)-l,2- dihydropyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-2(lH)-one) is dissolved in DMSO. The amount of DMSO is typically suitable to substantially dissolve the solid API. Suitable amounts of DMSO are 10 to 30 times the volume of API used. The API is preferably dissolved at RT, i.e. at 20 to 25 °C, in particular at about 25 °C. Preferably, the DMSO is provided at this temperature before the API is added. After addition of the API into the DMSO, preferably the mixture is maintained at this temperature for 10 min to 1 h, e.g. about 30 min, to allow complete dissolution of the API. During that time, the mixture may be stirred. In a preferred embodiment, after dissolution, the solution of API in DMSO is filtered to remove insoluble ingredients and impurities. Suitable filters are known in the art.
[0039] As next step, typically following the dissolution and / or filtration step, at least a first part of antisolvent is added to the solution. As anti-solvent, in the third aspect EtOH or EtOHTEO having about 1: 1 ratio (v / v) of EtOH and H2O is used. The temperature of the anti-solvent used is typically substantially the same as the DMSO solution comprising the dissolved API. The total amount of anti-solvent added is such that the ratio of DMSO: anti -solvent (EtOH or 1: 1 EtOH / FEO) is about 1:2 to 1:3 (v / v). Thus, in one embodiment, the first part of anti-solvent is less than the amount of anti-solvent needed such that the ratio of DMSO: anti -solvent (EtOH or 1: 1 EtOH / FEO) is about 1:2 to 1:3 (v / v), and typically is about ! to ‘A of the amount needed such that the ratio of DMSO:anti-solvent (EtOH or 1: 1 EtOH / FEO) is about 1:2 to 1:3 (v / v). After addition of the first part of the anti-solvent, the solution is maintained at the same temperature for up to 4 h, preferably 30 min to 60 min. Afterwards, if only a first part of anti-solvent has been added, the second part of the anti-solvent is added such that the ratio of DMSO:anti-solvent (EtOH or 1: 1 EtOH / FEO) is about 1:2 to 1:3 (v / v), preferably about 1:2.
[0040] After addition of the anti -solvent, the solution can be maintained at the same temperature for up to 24 h, preferably 1 to 24 h, more preferably 6 to 18 h. This time range is suitable to obtain high crystallization yields.
[0041] After addition of the anti -solvent, and optionally maintaining the solution at the same temperature for up to 24 h, the solution can be cooled to about 0 to 10 °C, preferably at a rate of about 5 to 10 °C / hour, e.g. at 10 °C / hour, and preferably maintaining the cooled solution at the same temperature for about 1 to 24 hours.
[0042] In order to obtain the solid crystal Form B of the API, the solids are filtered from the solution. Optionally, the obtained filter cake is rinsed, e.g. up to 5 volumes of the cake, preferably using anti-solvent. Optionally, the wet filter cake is dried, typically under conditions which do not deteriorate the obtained crystal Form B.
[0043] Thus, in a preferred embodiment of the third aspect, the process for preparing a crystalline form of sodium 7-(4-bromophenyl)-2-oxo-9-(trifluoromethyl)-I,2-dihydropyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2- d]pyrimidin-4-olate hydrate Form B comprises the steps of a) dissolving sodium 7-(4-bromophenyl)-2-oxo-9-(trifluoromethyl)-I,2- dihydropyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4-olate in DMSO at RT, preferably about 20-25 °C, b) adding a first part of anti-solvent EtOH or EtOH / H2O having about 1 : 1 ratio (v / v) of EtOH / FEO mixture into the solution, preferably until first precipitation occurs, holding the solution at the same temperature for about 30-60 minutes, c) adding a second part of anti-solvent EtOH or EtOH / FEO having about 1 : 1 ratio (v / v) of EtOH / H2O mixture into the solution until the ratio of DMSO:anti-solvent (EtOH or 1: 1 EtOH / H2O) is about 1 :2 to 1:3 (v / v), and maintaining the solution at the same temperature for about 2-3 hours, d) cooling the solution to about 0-10 °C, preferably at a rate of about 10 °C / hour, and preferably maintaining the solution at the same temperature for about 6-24 hours, e) filtering the mixture and optionally rinsing the filter cake, preferably with anti-solvent, and f) optionally drying the wet filter cake.
[0044] In a further preferred embodiment of the third aspect, the process for preparing a crystalline form of sodium 7-(4-bromophenyl)-2-oxo-9-(trifluoromethyl)-l,2-dihydropyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2- d]pyrimidin-4-olate hydrate Form B comprises the steps of a) dissolving sodium 7-(4-bromophenyl)-2-oxo-9-(trifluoromethyl)-l,2- dihydropyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4-olate in DMSO at 25 °C, b) adding a first part of anti-solvent EtOH or EtOH / H2O having about 1 : 1 ratio (v / v) of EtOH / H2O mixture into the solution, preferably until first precipitation occurs, more preferably about ! to i of the amount of anti -solvent needed to obtain a ratio of DMSO: anti-solvent (EtOH or 1: 1 EtOH / H2O) of about 1:2 to 1:3 (v / v), holding the solution at the same temperature for about 30-60 minutes, c) adding a second part of anti-solvent EtOH or EtOH / H2O having about 1 : 1 ratio (v / v) of EtOH / H2O mixture into the solution until the ratio of DMSO: anti-solvent (EtOH or 1: 1 EtOH / H2O) is about 1 :2 to 1:3 (v / v), and maintaining the solution at the same temperature for about 2-3 hours, d) cooling the solution to about 0-10 °C at a rate of about 10 °C / hour, and maintaining the solution at the same temperature for about 6-24 hours, e) filtering the mixture and optionally rinsing the filter cake, preferably with anti-solvent, and f) optionally drying the wet filter cake.
[0045] The fourth aspect of the present invention relates to a process for preparing a crystalline form of sodium 7-(4-bromophenyl)-2-oxo-9-(trifluoromethyl)-l,2-dihydropyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin- 4-olate hydrate form (Form E) comprising the steps of a) dissolving sodium 7-(4-bromophenyl)-2-oxo-9-(trifluoromethyl)-l,2- dihydropyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4-olate in DMSO at increased temperature, preferably about 55-70 °C, or at a temperature below 50 °C, followed by heating the mixture to about 60-70 °C, b) cooling to about 45-65 °C, preferably at a rate of about 5-10 °C / h, c) adding anti -solvent EtOH / H2O having about 1 : 1 to 9: 1 ratio (v / v) of EtOH / H2O into the solution, optionally maintaining the solution at the same temperature for about 1-4 hours, d) cooling the solution to about 0-10 °C, preferably at a rate of about 5-10 °C / hour, and preferably maintaining the solution at the same temperature for about 1 - 24 hours, e) filtering and drying the wet filter cake, preferably at < 40 °C and at 30-60 % relative humidity.
[0046] According to the fourth aspect, the API (sodium 7-(4-bromophenyl)-2-oxo-9-(trifluoromethyl)-l,2- dihydropyrido[3',2':4,5]thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-2(lH)-one) is dissolved in DMSO at increased temperature, e.g. at least 50 °C, or at a temperature below 50 °C, followed by heating the mixture to about 50-70 °C. The amount of DMSO is typically suitable to substantially dissolve the solid API. Suitable amounts of DMSO are 10 to 30 times the volume of API used. The API is typically dissolved at a temperature in a range of 55 to 70 °C, preferably in a range of 60 to 65 °C. Preferably, the DMSO is provided at this temperature before the API is added. Alternatively, the API is dissolved in DMSO at a temperature below 50 °C, followed by heating the mixture to about 50-70 °C, preferably 60-70 °C. After addition of the API into the DMSO, preferably the mixture is maintained at the increased temperature / heated to the increased temperature for 10 min to 2 h, e.g. about 30 min to 120 min, to allow complete dissolution of the API. During that time, the mixture may be stirred. In a preferred embodiment, after dissolution, the solution of API in DMSO is filtered to remove insoluble ingredients and impurities. The filter cake may be washed with DMSO, e.g. about 2 to 4 volumes. Suitable filters are known in the art.
[0047] As the next step, typically following the dissolution and / or filtration step, the optionally filtered solution may be cooled to about 45-65 °C, preferably about 50-60 °C. The cooling rate is preferably about 5-10 °C / h.
[0048] As next step, typically following the cooling of the solution, at least a first part of anti-solvent is added to the solution. As anti-solvent, in the fourth aspect EtOH / H2O having about 1: 1 to about 9: 1 ratio (v / v) of EtOH and H2O, preferably about 9: 1 (v / v), is used. The temperature of the anti-solvent used is typically the same as the (cooled) DMSO solution comprising the dissolved API. The total amount of antisolvent added is preferably such that the ratio of DMSO: anti -solvent (EtOH / H2O) is about 1:2 to 1:3 (v / v), preferably about 1:2 (v / v). Thus, in one embodiment, the first part of anti-solvent is less than the amount of anti-solvent added such that the ratio of DMSO:anti-solvent (1: 1-9: 1 EtOH / H2O) is about 1:2 to 1:3 (v / v), and typically is about ! to A of the amount needed such that the ratio of DMSO:anti-solvent (1: 1- 9: 1 EtOH / H2O) is about 1:2 to 1:3 (v / v), preferably about 1:2 (v / v). After addition of the first part of the anti-solvent, the solution can be maintained at the same temperature for up to 4 h, typically, 1 to 4 h, preferably 30 min to 120 min. Afterwards, if only a first part of anti-solvent has been added, the second part of the anti-solvent is added such that the ratio of DMSO:anti-solvent (EtOH / H2O) is about 1:2 to 1:3 (v / v), preferably about 1:2.
[0049] In one embodiment, the total amount of anti -solvent is added in three distinct parts. That is, the first part of anti-solvent is less than the amount of anti-solvent added such that the ratio of DMSO: anti-solvent (1: 1-9: 1 EtOH / H2O) is about 1:2 to 1:3 (v / v), and typically is about ! (25 %) to A (50 %) of the amount needed such that the ratio of DMSO:anti-solvent (1: 1-9: 1 EtOH / H2O) is about 1:2 to 1:3 (v / v), preferably about 1:2 (v / v). After addition of the first part of the anti -solvent, the solution can be maintained at the same temperature for up to 4 h, typically, 1 to 4 h, preferably 30 min to 120 min. Afterwards, a second part of anti -solvent is added such that the total amount of anti-solvent added is still below the ratio of DMSO:anti- solvent (1: 1-9: 1 EtOH / H2O) of about 1:2 to 1:3 (v / v), and typically is about 10 % to 30 % of the amount needed such that the ratio of DMSO:anti-solvent (1: 1-9: 1 EtOH / H2O) is about 1:2 to 1:3 (v / v), preferably about 1:2 (v / v). After addition of the second part of the anti-solvent, the solution can be maintained at the same temperature for up to 4 h, typically, 1 to 4 h, preferably 1 to 3h. Finally, the third part of anti-solvent is added such that the ratio of DMSO: anti-solvent (EtOH / H2O) is about 1:2 to 1:3 (v / v), preferably about 1:2. After addition of the third part of the anti-solvent, the solution can be maintained at the same temperature for up to 4 h, typically, 1 to 4 h, preferably 1 to 3 h. The ratio of the relative amounts of the first part:second part:third part of anti -solvent added can be 25-50 %: 10-30 %:20-65 % (the sum has to be 100 %), preferably about 25-35 %: 15-25 %:40-60 %.
[0050] After addition of the anti-solvent, the solution can be maintained at the same temperature for up to 24 h, preferably 1 to 16 h, more preferably 2 to 3 h. This time range is suitable to obtain high crystallization yields.
[0051] After addition of the anti-solvent, and optionally maintaining the solution at the same temperature for up to 24 h, the solution can be cooled to about 0 to 10 °C, preferably at a rate of about 5 to 10 °C / hour, e.g. at 10 °C / h, and preferably maintaining the cooled solution at the same temperature for about 1 to 24 hours. In one embodiment, the cooling step consists of several alternating steps of cooling and maintaining the solution at said lowered temperature for a while, e.g. the following two steps a) and b) could be alternated until the final temperature is reached: a) lowering the temperature for 5 to 10 °C, followed by b) maintaining the cooled solution at the same temperature for about 1 to 24 hours. These extended times are suitable to obtain high crystallization yields and assures consistent production of the desired Form E.
[0052] In order to obtain the solid crystal Form E of the API, the solids are filtered from the solution. Optionally, the obtained filter cake is rinsed, e.g. up to 5 volumes of the cake, preferably using anti-solvent. Optionally, the wet filter cake can be dried, typically under conditions which do not deteriorate the obtained crystal Form E, e.g. at < 40 °C and at 30-60 % relative humidity.
