Novel salt of tegoprazan and method for preparing the same
[0001] The present invention relates to a novel salt form of tegoprazan, tegoprazan orotate salt, and a method for producing the same.
[0002] Tegoprazan is a benzimidazole derivative having acid pump inhibitory activity (H+ K+ ATPase inhibitor) for the treatment of gastrointestinal diseases, gastroesophageal diseases, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcer, gastric ulcer, duodenal ulcer, NSAID-induced ulcer, gastritis, Helicobacter pylori infection, dyspepsia, functional dyspepsia, Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, non-erosive reflux disease (NERD), visceral referred pain, heartburn, nausea, esophagitis, dysphagia, salivation, airway disorders and asthma, and is a compound named 4-[((4S)-5,7-difluoro-3,4-dihydro-2H-chromen-4-yl)oxy]-N,N,2-trimethyl-1H-benz[d]imidazole-6-carboxamide represented by the chemical formula 1. HKINNOEN (CJ Healthcare) developed and marketed K-CAP after acquiring the initial material from LaQualia Pharma Inc. (International Patent Publication No. 2007 / 072146).
[0003] [Chemical Formula 1]
[0004]
[0005] Korean Patent No. 10-1829706 introduces amorphous salts of the compound represented by Chemical Formula 1, which have excellent liquid stability, solid stability, water solubility, precipitation stability, and hygroscopicity, as the free base of the compound represented by Chemical Formula 1 has very low water solubility.
[0006] However, in the case of the pidolate salt and maleate salt of the compound represented by Chemical Formula 1, the amount of total flexible substances and the amount of residual solvent were measured to be higher than expected at the initial stage of synthesis and when stored under specific conditions, and in particular, the amount of residual solvent was much higher than the standard of the ICH guideline.
[0007] Therefore, a new salt of tegoprazan that is easy to formulate and has improved physicochemical stability, moisture absorption, etc., while remaining below the residual solvent standards recommended by the ICH guidelines has not yet been discovered.

[0030] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail.
[0031] New salt of Tegoprazan
[0032] To solve the above problem, the present invention provides a tegoprazan orotate salt. The tegoprazan orotate salt of the present invention is a compound represented by the following chemical formula 2.
[0033] [Chemical Formula 2]
[0034]
[0035] Specifically, the tegoprazan orotate salt represented by the above chemical formula 2 is named 4-[((4S)-5,7-difluoro-3,4-dihydro-2H-chromen-4-yl)oxy]-N,N,2-trimethyl-1H-benzimidazole-6-carboxamide orotic acid [[(S)-4-((5,7-difluorochroman-4-yl)oxy)-N,N,2-trimethyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole-6-carboxamide] orotic acid].
[0036] The tegoprazan orotate salt of the present invention comprises stereoisomers.
[0037] In the present invention, the term “stereoisomer” means a compound having one or more chiral centers (*), each of which can exist in the R or S form. Stereoisomers include not only diastereoisomers, enantiomers, and epimers, but also racemates and mixtures thereof.
[0038] Although it is known that preparing a salt form can improve the physical or pharmacological properties of a pharmaceutically active compound, it is impossible to predict which salt form will be effective for a specific purpose before it is actually prepared and characterized. Because salt formation can alter the physicochemical properties of a drug without altering its chemical structure, selecting an appropriate salt is a crucial consideration for solubility and stability. Solubility, in particular, is a critical property that can influence its suitability for use as a drug.
[0039] The tegoprazan orotate salt according to the present invention has superior physicochemical properties compared to tegoprazan or other salts of tegoprazan.
[0040] Specifically, the tegoprazan orotate salt of the present invention can minimize the generation of related substances in the initial stage of synthesis and under the conditions of 40°C and RH75%, thereby improving stability. In particular, the total amount of related substances measured in the initial stage of synthesis is at least three times less than that of the conventionally known tegoprazan pidolate salt and tegoprazan malate salt, and in the case of residual solvent, it is at least 72 times less than that of the tegoprazan pidolate salt and tegoprazan malate salt, so it can be considered to have stable characteristics of the salt itself. Therefore, even when the formulation is manufactured and stored for a long period of time, the same state is maintained, so the content uniformity of the formulation can be stably maintained, and thus it can be easily applied to mass production.
[0041] The tegoprazan orotate salt according to the present invention can be usefully applied as a medicine for diseases mediated by acid pump antagonism activity by using orotic acid, which is not harmful to the human body.
[0042] In one embodiment of the present invention, the tegoprazan orotate salt may be a combination of tegoprazan and orotic acid in a molar ratio of 1:1.

[0054] In the present invention, the orotic acid of step (a) may be added in a molar ratio of 0.8 to 1.5 equivalents per 1.0 equivalent of tegoprazan free base, but is not limited thereto.
[0055] In the present invention, the co-solvent of step (b) may be selected from the group consisting of methanol, ethanol, acetone, isopropanol, and mixed solvents thereof, but is not limited thereto.
[0056] In the present invention, the co-solvent of step (b) may be added 3 to 8 times (volume / weight) relative to the tegoprazan free base, but is not limited thereto.
[0057] In the present invention, the step (c) may be a step of washing the precipitated solid with any one solvent selected from the group consisting of methanol, ethanol, acetone, isopropanol, and a mixed solvent thereof, but is not limited thereto.

[0068] In the present invention, the pharmaceutical composition can be prepared in the form of a liquid, suspension, powder, granule, tablet, capsule, pill or extract.
[0069] In the present invention, the pharmaceutical composition can be administered orally or parenterally (e.g., by application or intravenous, subcutaneous, or intraperitoneal injection).
[0070] In the present invention, the term “oral administration” refers to a method of administering a drug for improving pathological symptoms through the mouth, and in the present invention, the term “parenteral administration” refers to a method of administering subcutaneously, intramuscularly, intravenously, or intraperitoneally using a tube, excluding oral administration.
[0071] Solid preparations for oral administration include powders, granules, tablets, capsules, soft capsules, and pills. Liquid preparations for oral administration include suspensions, oral solutions, emulsions, syrups, and aerosols. In addition to commonly used simple diluents such as water and liquid paraffin, various excipients such as wetting agents, sweeteners, flavoring agents, and preservatives may be included.

It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the therapeutically effective dosage and frequency of administration of the active ingredient of the present invention will vary depending on the desired effect. Therefore, the optimal dosage to be administered can be readily determined by those skilled in the art, and can be adjusted according to various factors, including the type of disease, the severity of the disease, the content of the active ingredient and other ingredients contained in the composition, the type of formulation, and the patient's age, weight, general health, sex, and diet, the time of administration, the route of administration, and the excretion rate of the composition, the treatment period, and concurrently used drugs.
[0081] Specifically, the therapeutically effective amount is an amount of the tegoprazan orotate salt of the present invention that is effective in preventing or treating a disease mediated by acid pump antagonist activity, preferably 25 mg or 50 mg of tegoprazan orotate salt may be administered once a day, but the therapeutically effective amount may be interpreted to encompass all doses at which the symptoms of the disease mediated by acid pump antagonist activity are improved or completely cured by the pharmaceutical composition.
[0082] The preventive or therapeutic method of the present invention includes not only treating the disease itself before the onset of symptoms, but also inhibiting or avoiding the symptoms thereof by administering a pharmaceutical composition.
[0083] In the present invention, the term “subject requiring treatment” means mammals such as monkeys, cows, horses, dogs, cats, rabbits, rats, and mice, and particularly includes humans.
