Abstract
Description
[0001]AGO-P3287PCT SpecificationCRYSTALLINE FORMS Field of the inventionThe invention relates to solid crystalline salt forms of a potent ALK5 inhibitor, andcompositions, medical uses and processes for manufacturing thereof.Background of the inventionTransforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) belongs to the TGF-β superfamily, which comprises TGF-β1, TGF-β2, and TGF-β3, among other proteins. TGF-β is involved in many cellular processes, including cell proliferation, cell migration, invasion, epithelial−mesenchymaltransition, extracellular matrix production and immune suppression. TGF-β and its receptorsare often chronically overexpressed in various human diseases, including cancer, inflammation, tissue fibrosis and autoimmunity. Therefore, blockade of TGF-β signalling pathway is considered an attractive approach for drug development (Heldin C. H. et al., (2016)). TGF-β signals via two related transmembrane type I and type II serine / threonine kinase receptors. Following TGF-β binding to the constitutively active type II receptor, the type I receptor (TGFβR1, also called activin receptor-like kinase 5 (ALK5), which term is used hereafter) is phosphorylated and creates a binding site for Smad2 and Smad3 proteins, which are further phosphorylated. Phosphorylated Smad2 / Smad3 proteins form a heteromeric complex with Smad4, which translocate into the nucleus, assembles with specific DNA-binding cofactors and co-modulators, and binds to the promoters of TGF-β target genes involved in cell differentiation, proliferation, apoptosis, migration, and extracellular matrix production.(Akhurst R. J. et al., (2012)).In most cell types, activin receptor-like kinase 5 (ALK5) is the predominant TGF-β receptor I that is activated by TGF-β through TGF-β receptor II. This interaction requires both extracellular and intracellular domains for signal transduction. ALK5 and TGF-β receptor II proteins can also form active heterooligomeric complexes in the absence of ligand. These complexes are able to transduce basal signals when both receptors are co-expressed because of their intrinsic affinity for interaction. (Bierie B. et al., (2006)).AGO-P3287PCT SpecificationThe functional TGFβRII–TGFβRI (ALK5) heteromeric signalling complex is commonly associated with human cancer, and it regulates the activation of downstream Smad- dependent and Smad-independent pathways. In fact, many studies have identified mutations in components that are associated with the TGF-β pathway, and which correlate with cancer occurrence and prognosis in many human tissues. The overexpression of TGF-β1 has been associated with breast, colon, oesophageal, gastric, hepatocellular, lung and pancreaticcancer inter alia. Importantly, the overexpression of TGF-β in human cancer correlates withtumour progression, metastasis, angiogenesis and poor prognostic outcome. Furthermore, TGF-β inhibits alveolar epithelial cell growth and repair, so it is a key player in fibroticprocesses, acting on both fibroblasts and alveolar epithelial cells (Saito A. et al., (2018)).Extensive evidence suggests that the canonical ALK5 / Smad3 pathway is critically involved in the pathogenesis of fibrosis in many tissues. Oral administration of a small molecular weight selective inhibitor of the kinase activity of ALK5 inhibited fibrogenesis in a rat model of progressive TGF-β1-induced pulmonary fibrosis. Furthermore, Smad3 null mice exhibit attenuated fibrosis in a wide range of experimental models and are resistant to bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis. (Biernacka A. et al., (2011)). Similar to the role of TGF-β inpulmonary fibrosis, in COPD patients TGF-β promotes fibrotic airway remodelling, which can further contribute to diminished lung function. Some of the increases in TGF-β1 in the airway epithelium of COPD patients may be a direct response to cigarette smoke, the most significantrisk factor for development of this disease state (Aschner Y. et al., (2016)). The transforminggrowth factor (TGF-β) cytokines play a central role in development and progression of chronic respiratory diseases. TGF-β overexpression in chronic inflammation, remodelling, fibrotic processes, and susceptibility to viral infection is established in the most prevalent chronic respiratory diseases including pulmonary fibrosis, asthma, COPD and lung cancer. Compounds which have utility as potent inhibitors of ALK5 are described in WO 2022 / 069509A1. Example 19 of the above-mentioned patent publication discloses a non-crystalline form of2-(piperazin-1-yl)ethyl 3-fluoro-5-(2-(3-(6-methylpyridin-2-yl)-4-(quinolin-4-yl)-1H-pyrazol-1- yl)acetamido) benzoate:AGO-P3287PCT Specification (“the compound of formula (I)”), which compound is a potent inhibitor of ALK5. Polymorphism is an important consideration in the development of a medicinal product because of its influence on the physicochemical and biopharmaceutical properties of the compound. This characteristic arises whenever an entity, such as small molecule, can adopt different crystalline lattices. The resulting variation in solid state packing can lead to differences in storage stability, solubility profiles and density thereby affecting formulation and product manufacturing, as well as dissolution characteristics: an important factor in determining bioavailability in vivo. There is therefore a need to provide solid forms of the compound of formula (I) for use in the treatment of diseases ameliorated by inhibition of ALK5, particularly having appropriatephysical and chemical properties, including properties pertinent to its administration orallyand / or by inhalation, such as high melting point, good polymorphic and chemical stability uponstorage, relatively low hygroscopicity and adequate solubility.Summary of the invention In a first aspect, the present invention provides a substance which is an acid addition salt of a compound of formula (I): AGO-P3287PCT Specificationwherein the acid addition salt is selected from the group consisting of a fumaric acid additionsalt, a succinic acid addition salt and a hydrochloric acid addition salt, and the substance is ina solid crystalline form.In a second aspect, the present invention provides a substance which is a fumaric acidaddition salt of a compound of formula (I): wherein the substance is in a solid crystalline form.In a third aspect, the present invention provides a substance which is a succinic acid additionsalt of a compound of formula (I): wherein the substance is in a solid crystalline form.In a fourth aspect, the present invention provides a substance which is a hydrochloric acidaddition salt of a compound of formula (I): wherein the substance is in a solid crystalline form.AGO-P3287PCT SpecificationSuch substances may be referred to herein as a “substance of the invention” or a “substanceas defined herein”.

These are related by Bragg'sequation, nλ=2d Sin θ, (where n=1; λ=wavelength of the cathode used; d=interplanar spacing;and θ=diffraction angle). Herein, interplanar spacings, diffraction angle and overall patternare important for identification of crystal in the X-ray powder diffraction, due to the characteristics of the data. The relative intensity of the peaks should not be strictly interpreted since it may be varied depending on the direction of crystal growth, particle sizes andmeasurement conditions. Thus, in an XRPD pattern, the skilled person may expect to seevariation in the relative intensity of peaks. In addition, the diffraction angles usually meanangles which coincide in the range of 2θ±0.2°. XRPD patterns are typically collected usingCuKα1-radiation.

Thus, in one embodiment there is provided a pharmaceutical composition comprising the substance of theinvention optionally in combination with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable diluents,excipients, or carriers, wherein the pharmaceutical composition is suitable for oraladministration. The pharmaceutical composition comprising the substance of the invention can be formulatedfor oral administration as a liquid or solid, e.g. as a syrup, suspension, emulsion, tablet,capsule or lozenge.AGO-P3287PCT SpecificationA liquid formulation suitable for oral administration will generally consist of a suspension orsolution of the substance of the invention in a suitable liquid carrier(s). Suitably the carrier isnon-aqueous e.g. polyethylene glycol or an oil. The formulation may also contain a suspending agent, preservative, flavouring and / or colouring agent. A composition in the form of a tablet can be prepared using any suitable pharmaceutical carrier(s) routinely used for preparing solid formulations, such as magnesium stearate, starch, lactose, sucrose and cellulose.Alternatively, the substance of the invention (for example, formulated as a pharmaceuticalcomposition as defined herein) is administered by inhalation such as topically to the lung ornose, particularly, topically to the lung.

The formulation will typically contain a pharmaceutically acceptable (e.g. a topically acceptable) diluent such as lactose, glucose or mannitol(preferably lactose), usually of comparatively large particle size e.g. an MMAD of 50 µm ormore, e.g.100 µm or more or a D50 of 40-150 µm. As used herein, the term “lactose” refers to a lactose-containing component, including α-lactose monohydrate, β-lactose monohydrate, α- lactose anhydrous, β-lactose anhydrous and amorphous lactose. Lactose components may be processed by micronisation, sieving, milling, compression, agglomeration or spray drying.

The resultant particle size distribution may be measured using laser diffraction (e.g. with a Malvern Mastersizer 2000S instrument). Particle size distributions may be represented using D10, D50 and D90 values. The D50 median value of particle size distributions is defined as the particle size in microns that divides the distribution in half. The measurement derived from laser diffraction is more accurately described as a volume distribution and consequently the D50value obtained using this procedure is more meaningfully referred to as a Dv50value (medianAGO-P3287PCT Specificationfor a volume distribution). As used herein Dv values refer to particle size distributions measured using laser diffraction. Similarly, D10and D90values, used in the context of laser diffraction, are taken to mean Dv10and Dv90values and refer to the particle size whereby 10% of the distribution lies below the D10value, and 90% of the distribution lies below the D90value, respectively.

The trace obtained is shown in Figure 1C, characterised by two broad, continuous peaks corresponding to weight loss of 5.5%between 35 ˚C and 220 ˚C, with weight loss due to decomposition of the material starting withonset around 271 ˚C. This result suggests the crystalline form 1 of the hydrobromic acidaddition salt of the compound of formula (I) loses a significant amount of material upon heatingat even low temperatures and would likely not be stable to storage at temperatures above room temperature.Crystalline form 2 of the hydrobromic acid addition salt of the compound of formula (I)Methodology:The compound of formula (I) (20 mg, 0.034 mmol) was dissolved in acetone (0.5 mL) andhydrobromic acid (39 μl of a 0.88 M solution in water, 0.034 mmol, 1 eq) was added. Theobtained solution was evaporated to dryness, and the residue was suspended in acetone (3ml) and stirred at 50 ˚C for 24 hours. A solid was obtained after decantation of the suspension.XRPD XRPD was performed as described in General Methods. The XRPD pattern obtained is shownin Figure 2A. This pattern is characteristic of a crystalline product. The principal peakpositions are: 11.2, 14.2, 14.7, 19.5, 20.3, 22.8, 24.2, 26.7, 27.5, and 28.3 degrees 2-theta. Additional peaks positions are: 13.3, 13.8, 14.3, 15.3, and 18.8 degrees 2-theta.1H-NMR Proton NMR was performed as described in General Methods. The spectrum obtained is shown in Figure 2B. The spectrum is substantially the same as the1H-NMR spectrumobtained for the amorphous form of the compound of formula (I) as free base, with anadditional peak for acetone suggesting that the solid may be an acetone solvate of thehydrobromic acid addition salt. DSC DSC was performed as described in General Methods. The trace obtained is shown in Figure2C, characterised in having two endotherm events with onset around 34 ˚C and 209 ˚Crespectively. These events likely correspond to the loss of material from the crystalline form and suggest that the solid form is not temperature stable.AGO-P3287PCT SpecificationTGA TGA was performed as described in General Methods. The trace obtained is shown in Figure 2C, characterised by two broad, continuous peaks corresponding to weight loss of 5.9%between 33 ˚C and 225 ˚C, with weight loss due to decomposition of the material startingaround 275 ˚C. This result suggests the product loses a significant amount of material uponheating at even low temperatures and would likely not be stable to storage at temperatures above room temperature. Crystalline form 3 of the hydrobromic acid addition salt of the compound of formula (I): Methodology: The compound of formula (I) (20 mg, 0.034 mmol) was dissolved in acetone (0.5 mL) andhydrobromic acid (39 μl of a 0.88 M solution in water, 0.034 mmol, 1 eq) was added. Theobtained solution was evaporated to dryness, and the residue was suspended in ethyl acetate(3 ml) and stirred at 50 ˚C for 24 hours. A solid was obtained after decantation of thesuspension. XRPD XRPD was performed as described in General Methods. The XRPD pattern obtained is shown in Figure 3. This figure is characteristic of a solid product with low crystallinity. This product was therefore not further characterized. In summary, the crystalline forms 1, 2 and 3 of the hydrobromic acid addition salt of thecompound of formula (I) were characterised by low thermal stability, low crystallinity, and / oran inability to be reproduced on a larger scale and were thus deemed not suitable for furtherdevelopment. Example 3: Alternative preparation of crystalline form 1 of fumaric acid addition salt on a larger scaleThe crystalline Form 1 of the fumaric acid addition salt of the compound of formula (I) wasprepared by another process, as follows.The amorphous form of the compound of formula (I) as free base (2.33 g) was dissolved inacetone (8 mL) and fumaric acid (0.466 g) was added. In this experiment the molar ratio ofthe compound of formula (I) as free base to fumaric acid used in the process was 1:1. Thesuspension was heated to 60 °C and stirred at this temperature overnight. The obtainedAGO-P3287PCT Specificationsuspension was slowly cooled to room temperature and stirred for 1 hour, and then stirred forhalf an hour in an ice bath. Afterwards, the solid was filtered off in a filter plate (N.4), washedwith cold acetone (2x2 mL), and dried in vacuum at 60 °C for 4 hours. Yield: 73%.Example 4: Preparation of crystalline Form 1 of fumaric acid addition salt on a larger scaleThe crystalline form 1 of the fumaric acid addition salt of the compound of formula (I) wasprepared at larger scale, as follows.The amorphous form of the compound of formula (I) as free base (100 g) was dissolved inmethanol (1000 mL) and fumaric acid (29.32 g) was added. The suspension was stirred atroom temperature overnight. The obtained suspension was filtered and the solid was washedwith methanol (200 ml) and dried in vacuum for 1-2 hr before being dried in an oven at 60 ˚Cfor 18 hr. Yield: 56%. Example 5: Physical characterisation of the crystalline Form 1 of the fumaric acid addition salt of the compound of formula (I)The crystalline Form 1 of the fumaric acid addition salt of the compound of formula (I)(prepared e.g., as described in Example 3 or Example 4) was characterised by XRPD, FTIR,FTR, 1H-NMR, DSC, TGA and DVS.XRPD XRPD was performed as described in General Methods. The XRPD pattern obtained is shown in Figure 4A. This figure is characteristic of a crystalline product. The principal peak positionsare: 9.3, 10.5, 17.7, 18.0, 18.5, 18.8, 20.4, 23.2, 23.7 and 24.0 degrees 2-theta. Additionalpeaks positions are: 16.5, 20.0, 20.9, 21.1, and 22.7 degrees 2-theta. Further additional peaks are observed at 7.5, 8.5, 9.8, 11.7, 12.3, 12.6, 13.4, 13.8, 14.9, 15.2, 16.9, 21.5, 21.8, 22.2, 24.7, 25.7, 26.0, 26.4, 27.6, 27.9, 28.5, 28.9, 29.8, 30.2, 30.5, 31.1, 31.8, 32.4, 34.7, 35.0,35.9, 36.8, 37.5, 38.1, and 39.1 degrees 2-theta.FTIR FTIR was performed as described in General Methods. The FTIR spectrum obtained is shownin Figure 4B. This spectrum is characteristic of a substance with numerous different carbonylbonding environments. The principal peak positions are: 1701, 1593, 1559, 1458, 1435, 1383,1340, 1312, 1288, 1252, 1166, 1140, 1102, 995, and 766 cm-1.AGO-P3287PCT SpecificationFTRFTR was performed as described in General Methods. The FTR spectrum obtained is shownin Figure 4C. This spectrum is characteristic of a substance with numerous different carbonyl bonding environments. This is consistent with the finding of several different carbonyl environments in the SCXRD pattern associated with the fumaric acid and fumarate moleculespresent in the co-crystal. as discussed below. The principal peak positions are: 3070, 2952,1702, 1592, 1556, 1493, 1451, 1366, 1352, 1271 and 1001 cm-1.1H-NMRProton NMR was performed as described in General Methods. The spectrum obtained isshown in Figure 4D: 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6): δ (ppm) 11.14 (s, 1H), 8.86 (d, 1H), 8.17(s, 1H), 8.05 (m, 2H), 7.88 (dt, 1H), 7.70 (m, 2H), 7.59 (t, 1H), 7.50 (d, 1H), 7.40 (m, 3H), 6.98 (d, 1H), 6.52 (s, 3H), 5.29 (s, 2H), 4.41 (t, 2H), 4.08 (m, 4H), 2.76 (t, 2H), 2.65 (m, 4H), 1.84(s, 3H). The spectrum is substantially the same as the 1H-NMR spectrum obtained for theamorphous form of the compound of formula (I) as free base, with an additional singlet peakat 6.52 ppm attributable to fumaric acid and with shifts in the peak positions of the piperazinering protons consistent with formation of the fumarate salt. The integration of the peaks provides support for the number of equivalents of fumaric acid being 1.5. DSC DSC was performed as described in General Methods. The trace obtained is shown in Figure4E, characterised in having an endotherm with onset about 215 ˚C and a normalized peakintegral of -181 J / g. This result suggests the solid form is temperature stable up to around215 ˚C.TGA TGA was performed as described in General Methods. The trace obtained is shown in Figure4E, characterised by a weight loss of 1.2% between 35 ˚C and 191 ˚C, with weight loss dueto decomposition starting with onset at about 213 ˚C. This result suggests the product istemperature stable up to around 213 ˚C.DVSDVS analysis was performed as described in General Methods. The DVS results obtained areshown in Figure 4F. The DVS traces for sorption and desorption of the crystalline Form 1 ofthe fumaric acid addition salt of the compound of formula (I) are shown in Figure 4F. The traceis characterised in showing weight gain of 1.1% in the transition between 10 and 80% ofrelative humidity and weight gain of 1.2% in the transition between 10 and 90% of relativeAGO-P3287PCT Specificationhumidity. No changes in the crystalline form (observed by XRPD analysis) after the experimentwere observed. This result suggests that the substance is stable to moisture exposure and ischaracterised as being slightly hygroscopic.Figure 4F also shows the trace for a similar experiment performed on the amorphous form ofthe compound of formula (I) as free base, although the desorption stage was not performed.The DVS trace for this form is characterised in showing weight gain of 7% in the transitionbetween 10 and 80% of relative humidity and weight gain of 11.6% in the transition between10 and 90% of relative humidity and the substance is characterised as being moderatelyhygroscopic.

The asymmetric unit contains one molecule of the protonated compound of formula (I), one molecule of monoanionic fumarate and a half molecule of fumaric acid. The position of the hydrogen atoms of the carboxylate groups at the fumaric acid and at the amine groups were confirmed in their positions by localizing them experimentally from the residual electron densities. The rest ofthe hydrogen atoms were calculated in their expected positions. Additionally, carboxylic acidgroups and carboxylates were distinguished by the distances between oxygen and carbon atoms (double bond and single bond in carboxylic acid group and equal short distances in the carboxylate). The half fumaric acid molecule shows Ci-symmetry and is shared with the neighbouring asymmetric unit. This structure corresponds to a co-crystal of the salt with half fumaric acid (molar ratio 2:1 salt / fumaric acid, which corresponds to a global 1:1.5 compound of formula (I) to fumaric acid).A XRPD pattern was simulated from the results of the SCXRD experiment. An overlay of theXRPD pattern obtained in Example 3 compared to the pattern simulated from the single crystalstructure is shown in Figure 4H. The comparison of the experimentally measured XRPDpattern and the XRPD pattern calculated from the single crystal X-ray structure determinationshows that they correspond to the same crystalline phase and confirms that the measured single crystal is the same as the bulk of the crystals available for the sample. Differences inthe peak position of the XRPD patterns are most probably due to the different measurementtemperatures (SCXRD: -173 ˚C, XRPD: 25 ˚C).AGO-P3287PCT SpecificationCounter ion stoichiometry investigation of the crystalline form 1 of the fumaric acid addition salt of the compound of formula (I) The stoichiometric ratio of the compound of formula (I) to fumaric acid in the fumaric acid addition salts of the compound of formula (I) was further investigated using the ratio of 1:1.5, during the synthetic process, as follows.The amorphous form of the compound of formula (I) as free base (1.27 g, 2.14 mmol) wasdissolved in acetone (5 mL) and fumaric acid (0.372 g, 3.21 mmol, 1.5 eq) was added. Thesuspension was seeded with the crystalline form (Form 1), heated to 60 ˚C and stirred at thistemperature overnight. The obtained suspension was slowly cooled to room temperature and stirred for 30 minutes at this temperature, and for additional 30 minutes in an ice bath. Afterwards, the solid was filtered off in a filter plate (N.3), washed with cold acetone (2x2 mL),and dried in vacuum at 55 ˚C for 3 hours. Yield: 1.29 g (85%).This fumaric acid addition salt was characterised by XRPD. The XRPD pattern obtained canbe seen in Fig. 4J. The pattern is substantially the same as the XRPD pattern of the productof Example 3, suggesting that the same crystalline form is produced using a range of acid stoichiometries. This experiment was repeating using the further ratios of compound of formula (I) to fumaricacid of 1:2, 1:1.3 and 1: 0.8 and the crystalline Form 1 of the fumaric acid addition salt of thecompound of formula (I) was obtained in all cases (data not shown). Evidently it is advantageous in the manufacturing process to be able to reproduce the samecrystalline form even with variation in certain parameters, such as the input compound:acidratio. It has thus been determined that crystalline Form 1 of the fumaric acid addition salt of thecompound of formula (I) is a co-crystal of hemifumarate and fumaric acid with a molar ratio of2:1 (hemifumarate:fumaric acid).Example 6: Solubility studies of the crystalline Form 1 of the fumaric acid addition salt of thecompound of formula (I)A basic solubility study of the crystalline Form 1 of the fumaric acid addition salt of thecompound of formula (I) was carried out.AGO-P3287PCT Specification10 mg of the salt were weighed, and portions of 0.1 mL of the corresponding buffer were addeduntil complete solution was produced, or up to a maximum of 3 mL were added. Buffersolutions of pH 3.2, 4.4, 6, and 8 were prepared as follows: Citrate buffer: sodium citrate dihydrate (0.419 g) and citric acid (1.647 g) were pH 3.2 dissolved in water (0.1 L) and the final desired pH was adjusted using HCl or NaOH solutions. Acetate buffer: sodium acetate (0.333 g) and acetic acid (0.357 g) were pH 4.4 dissolved in water (0.1 L) and the final desired pH was adjusted using HCl or NaOH solutions. Potassium phosphate buffer: K2HPO4 (1.628 g) and KH2PO4 (0.089 g) were pH 6 dissolved in water (0.1 L) and the final desired pH was adjusted using HCl or NaOH solutions. Potassium phosphate buffer: K2HPO4 (0.241 g) and KH2PO4 (1.173 g) were pH 8 dissolved in water (0.1 L) and the final desired pH was adjusted using HCl or NaOH solutions.The results of the solubility study are shown in Table 8 below.Table 8: Solubility of the crystalline Form 1 of the fumaric acid addition salt of the compoundof formula (I) at varying temperature and pH Room Temperature = pH temperature2 ˚C3.2 8-10 mg / mL ≈5 mg / mL4.4 Not soluble Not soluble6 Not soluble Not soluble8 Not soluble Not solubleThe results show that crystalline Form 1 of the fumaric acid addition salt of the compound of formula (I) is soluble in the pH 3.2 buffer, which is a suitable pH for administration by inhalation.A comparative solubility test between the crystalline Form 1 of the fumaric acid addition saltof the compound of formula (I) and the amorphous form of the compound of formula (I) as freebase was carried out.AGO-P3287PCT SpecificationStock solutions (10-2M) of the assayed compounds were diluted to decreased molarity, from 300 μM to 0.1μM, in 384 well transparent plate (Greiner 781801) with 1% DMSO: 99% PBSbuffer (pH around 7.4). The samples were incubated at 37 ˚C and read after 2 hours in aNEPHELOstar Plus (BMG LABTECH). The results were adjusted to a segmented regressionto obtain the maximum concentration in which compounds are soluble.
