Description

Preparation of nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound having MYT1 inhibitory activity

[0001] The present invention relates to a preparation of a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound having MYT1 inhibitory activity.

[0002] Cells are exposed to exogenous or endogenous stressors daily, resulting in DNA damage. Normally, cells with DNA damage repair the DNA damage by activating the DNA Damage Response (DDR) pathway. It is known that many cancers have abnormalities in genes and proteins involved in the DDR pathway, and therapeutic approaches are being investigated (Non-Patent Documents 1-2). One method for treating cancers with abnormalities in genes and proteins involved in the DDR pathway is the use of PARP inhibitors, which are used to treat cancers with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations (Non-Patent Document 3). Currently, genes and proteins involved in the DDR pathway, such as ATM, ATR, CHK1, DNA-PK, and WEE1, are being identified as potential targets, and active research is being conducted on these targets (Non-Patent Document 4).

[0003] MYT1 is an enzyme of the WEE1 family and is known to be a negative regulator of CDK1. MYT1 phosphorylates CDK1, inactivating it and playing an important role in regulating the cell cycle. In recent years, new MYT1 inhibitors have been reported, which have been shown to induce synthetic lethality in certain cancers (Non-Patent Document 5). However, no approved drugs have yet been developed, and new therapeutic agents are desired.

[0025] [First Embodiment] One embodiment of the present invention is a composition comprising a compound represented by the following formula (1) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a pharmaceutically acceptable solvate of the compound or salt, and a solubilizing agent:

[0026]

[0023] As used herein, "a compound represented by formula (1) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a pharmaceutically acceptable solvate of the compound or salt" includes a compound represented by formula (1), a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the compound represented by formula (1), a pharmaceutically acceptable solvate of the compound represented by formula (1), and a pharmaceutically acceptable solvate of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the compound represented by formula (1). For convenience, as used herein, "a compound represented by formula (1)" will be referred to as "Compound 1," and "a compound represented by formula (1) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a pharmaceutically acceptable solvate of the compound or salt" may be collectively referred to as "the API of the present invention."

[0027] Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compound represented by formula (1) include, for example, hydrochloride; hydrobromide; hydroiodide; phosphate; phosphonate; sulfate; sulfonate such as methanesulfonate or p-toluenesulfonate; carboxylate such as acetate, citrate, malate, tartrate, succinate, or salicylate; alkali metal salt such as sodium salt or potassium salt; alkaline earth metal salt such as magnesium salt or calcium salt; ammonium salt such as ammonium salt, alkylammonium salt, dialkylammonium salt, trialkylammonium salt, or tetraalkylammonium salt. These salts are produced, for example, by contacting the compound with an acid or a base. As used herein, the term "solvate" refers to a compound that forms a molecular group together with a solvent, and is not particularly limited as long as it is a solvate formed with a solvent that is acceptable for ingestion accompanying the administration of a pharmaceutical. Examples of the solvate include not only hydrates, alcoholates (ethanolates, methanolates, 1-propanolates, 2-propanolates, etc.), and solvates with a single solvent such as dimethyl sulfoxide, but also solvates formed with multiple solvents per molecule of the compound, or solvates formed with multiple types of solvents per molecule of the compound. When the solvent is water, the solvate is called a hydrate. As the pharmaceutically acceptable solvate of the compound represented by formula (1), hydrates are preferred, and specific examples of such hydrates include mono- to decahydrates, preferably mono- to pentahydrates, and more preferably mono- to trihydrates.

[0028] When the compound represented by formula (1) is obtained in a free form, the compound can be converted into a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable solvate thereof (e.g., hydrate) in a conventional manner. Examples include hydrates and ethanolates of the compound represented by formula (1) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. Specific examples include, but are not limited to, pharmaceutically acceptable hemihydrate, monohydrate, dihydrate, trihydrate, tetrahydrate, pentahydrate, hexahydrate, heptahydrate, octahydrate, nonahydrate, decahydrate, or monoethanolate of the compound represented by formula (1), or hemihydrate, monohydrate, dihydrate, trihydrate, tetrahydrate, pentahydrate, hexahydrate, heptahydrate, octahydrate, nonahydrate, decahydrate, or monoethanolate of the sodium salt of the compound represented by formula (1), or a hydrate or ethanolate of the hydrochloride salt of the compound represented by formula (1). The hydrate or solvate may be produced in a crystalline or amorphous form, and in the case of a crystalline form, it may take the form of a crystalline polymorph. As a method for producing a hydrate or solvate, for example, a solvent such as ethanol and / or water can be added to a compound represented by formula (1) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and the mixture can be stirred, cooled, concentrated, and / or dried, or the like, to obtain a hydrate or solvate by a conventional method.

[0029] Furthermore, when the compound represented by formula (1) is obtained as a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable solvate thereof, the compound can be converted to its free form by a conventional method. The compound represented by formula (1) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a pharmaceutically acceptable solvate of the compound or salt is preferably a solvate of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the compound represented by formula (1), more preferably a solvate of the hydrochloride of the compound represented by formula (1), even more preferably a hydrate of the hydrochloride of the compound represented by formula (1), and most preferably a monohydrate of the hydrochloride of the compound represented by formula (1). Furthermore, in a specific embodiment, the compound represented by formula (1) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a pharmaceutically acceptable solvate of the compound or salt is an anhydrous hydrochloride of the compound represented by formula (1).

[0030] The compounds described herein may contain unnatural proportions of isotope atoms in one or more atoms constituting such compounds. The present invention also includes compounds in which any atom in a compound is substituted with another isotope atom having the same atomic number (number of protons) but a different mass number (sum of the number of protons and neutrons), thereby replacing the isotope with an abundance ratio different from the abundance ratio of the isotopes in nature, i.e., compounds labeled with isotope atoms. Examples of isotope elements contained in the compounds of the present specification include hydrogen atoms, carbon atoms, nitrogen atoms, oxygen atoms, phosphorus atoms, sulfur atoms, fluorine atoms, chlorine atoms, etc., and each of these isotopes is 2 H, 3 H, 13 C. 14 C. 15 N, 17 O. 18 O. 32 P, 35 S, 18 F, 36 Isotopically labeled compounds include Cl and the like. Compounds labeled with isotope atoms are useful as therapeutic or preventive agents, research reagents (e.g., assay reagents), and diagnostic agents (e.g., in vivo imaging diagnostic agents). Compounds herein containing radioactive or non-radioactive isotopes in all proportions are encompassed within the scope of the present invention. Compounds labeled with isotope atoms can be produced using reagents and solvents containing the corresponding isotope atoms in the same manner as for producing unlabeled compounds.

[0031] The compounds described herein, their salts, or solvates thereof include all stereoisomers thereof (e.g., enantiomers, diastereomers (including cis and trans geometric isomers)), racemates of such isomers, and other mixtures thereof. For example, the compounds of the present invention may have axial chirality, and the present invention includes each stereoisomer of such compounds and mixtures thereof.

[0032] The content of the API of the present invention is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, 0.1 to 95.0 wt%, 0.1 to 80.0 wt%, or 0.1 to 65.0 wt%, preferably 1.0 to 50.0 wt%, more preferably 10.0 to 40.0 wt%, and most preferably 12.5 to 30.0 wt%, relative to the total weight of the composition. When the composition of this embodiment is in the form of a tablet, an API content within the above range can reduce adhesion to equipment during formulation (particularly adhesion to punches during tableting). Furthermore, when the composition of this embodiment is used to produce capsules, the composition of this embodiment can be the content of the capsule. The content of the API of the present invention may be 0.1 to 95.0 wt %, 0.1 to 80.0 wt %, or 0.1 to 65.0 wt %, preferably 1.0 to 50.0 wt %, more preferably 10.0 to 40.0 wt %, and most preferably 12.5 to 30.0 wt %, based on the weight of the entire capsule minus the weight of the empty capsule (i.e., the weight of the contents of the capsule).

[0033] The solubilizing agent is a component useful for improving the solubility of the API of the present invention in FaSSIF. Examples of the solubilizing agent include a surfactant or a polymer. The inclusion of such a solubilizing agent makes the API of the present invention more soluble in FaSSIF.

[0034] Surfactants have a chemical structure containing a hydrophilic group and a lipophilic group, and act at the boundary between water and oil to change its properties. Examples of hydrophilic groups include salts of hydrophilic functional groups such as carboxyl groups, sulfo groups, and sulfate groups, as well as hydrophilic functional groups derived from polyethylene glycol, sugars, glycerin, sorbitan, amino acids (e.g., carnitine), and dicarboxylic acids (e.g., succinic acid, phthalic acid, and adipic acid). Examples of lipophilic groups include alkyl, alkenyl, or alkynyl groups derived from fatty acids (e.g., alkyl, alkenyl, or alkynyl groups having 6 or more carbon atoms), and tocopherol.

[0035] In certain embodiments, the surfactant may be a nonionic surfactant or an anionic surfactant. In certain embodiments, the surfactant is an anionic surfactant. Examples of anionic surfactants include carboxylates, sulfonates, and sulfate ester salts, with sulfate ester salts being preferred. In certain embodiments, preferred surfactants are alkyl sulfate ester salts, fatty acid esters, tocopherol derivatives, or fatty acid salts. When the surfactant is an alkyl sulfate ester salt (particularly lauryl sulfate), the dissolution property of the composition of the present invention is also excellent. "Dissolution property" can be determined, for example, by the time it takes for the API of the present invention to dissolve at a certain concentration in FaSSIF.

[0071] The composition according to the present embodiment improves the solubility of the API of the present invention in FaSSIF. The specific method for confirming this improved solubility is as follows: The concentration of the API of the present invention in FaSSIF is measured at 60, 180, and 240 minutes after adding the composition according to the present embodiment to FaSSIF at normal pressure and 37°C. "Normal pressure" refers to typical atmospheric pressure, such as "1 atmosphere" or "760 mmHg." A control composition having the same composition but without the solubilizing agent is prepared, and the concentration is measured in the same manner. When compared, the composition according to the present embodiment exhibits a higher concentration of the API of the present invention (i.e., improved solubility) compared to the control composition. In certain embodiments, the composition according to the present embodiment exhibits a concentration of the API of the present invention that is 1.2 times or more higher than the control composition. Furthermore, the composition according to the present embodiment maintains a similarly high solubility 60, 180, or 240 minutes after adding the composition to FaSSIF. In a specific embodiment, the composition of this embodiment exhibits a 20% or less decrease in concentration 180 or 240 minutes after addition to FaSSIF compared to the concentration measured at 60 minutes. The improvement in the solubility of the API of the present invention in FaSSIF can be confirmed in more detail by the method described in the Examples.

[0072] Another aspect of this embodiment is a method for improving the solubility of an API of the present invention in a composition, the method comprising the co-presence of a solubilizing agent in said composition. Preferably, the "solubility" referred to herein is the solubility concentration of the API of the present invention in FaSSIF.

[0073] As used herein, the term "volume-based particle size" refers to the particle size distribution value of a powder weighted by volume, representing the particle size at a specific volume in a powder sample. The volume-based particle size d50 (abbreviated as d50) refers to the particle size at 50% of the sample volume when the cumulative frequency distribution curve of particle sizes is calculated, assuming the total volume of the particles to be 100%. Those skilled in the art can measure the volume-based particle size using a commercially available particle size measurement instrument and following its instruction manual. For example, the volume-based particle size measured using a laser diffraction particle size distribution analyzer can be determined by dispersing the powder to be measured in a solvent (dispersion medium), irradiating the dispersion medium with a laser beam, and measuring the change in the diffraction of the laser beam over time. For example, this can be performed according to a conventional method, such as the "Particle Size Measurement Method" described in the Japanese Pharmacopoeia (17th or 18th revision). For example, the volume-based particle size of the API of the present invention can also be determined according to the following method. In the following examples, a laser diffraction particle size distribution analyzer (trade name: Mastersizer 3000 (manufactured by Spectris Inc.)) is used for explanation. (1) Compound 1 (10 mg) is added to 2-propanol (15 mL) and dispersed by ultrasonic treatment for at least 2 minutes to prepare a sample solution. (2) An "automatic wet dispersion unit" is filled with the dispersion medium (2-propanol) and circulated for at least 3 minutes. (3) The optical axis is adjusted, and the background of 2-propanol is measured. (4) The sample solution is added, circulated for at least 30 seconds, and the particle diameter is measured. (5) The average value of the measured values ​​measured twice is used. In principle, when the sample particles are arranged in order of volume, the particle diameter of the particles that make up 50% of the total, counting from the smallest sample particles, is recorded as d50; however, this can be measured automatically using a dedicated device. The volume-based particle size d50 of the API of the present invention is 0.2 to 60 μm, preferably 0.2 to 40 μm, and more preferably 0.2 to 20 μm.

[0074] In the composition according to one embodiment of the present invention, the content of the API of the present invention contained in the composition after storage for one month at 40°C, 75% storage humidity and in an airtight state may be 80% or more, or 90% or more of the initial content of the API of the present invention contained in the composition.

[0075] In the present specification, "the content of the API of the present invention contained in the composition after storing the composition in an airtight state at 40°C and 75% storage humidity for one month" may be determined, for example, by a quantitative NMR method using a commercially available internal standard (e.g., dimethyl sulfone), or by HPLC analysis. More specifically, this can be carried out according to the method described in the Examples.

[0076] The "initial content of the API of the present invention" means the content of the API of the present invention before the start of storage of the composition under the above conditions. The initial value may be determined by a method similar to the above method, or may be a target value (also referred to as a "set value" in this specification) set when producing the composition with a specific content, or may be the weight of the API of the present invention per composition actually weighed during the production, or may be the content of the API of the present invention per composition described in the package insert of the drug after the drug is marketed.

[0077] [Second Embodiment] One embodiment of the present invention is a composition comprising the API of the present invention and a disintegrant. The description of the first embodiment can be taken into consideration for the API of the present invention. According to this embodiment, a composition excellent in dissolution property of the API of the present invention can be provided. The "dissolution property" can be determined, for example, by the time it takes for the API of the present invention to dissolve to a certain concentration in FaSSIF.

[0083] In particular, the composition according to this embodiment preferably further contains a solubilizing agent and / or a lubricant.

[0084] The solubilizing agent is a component useful for improving the solubility of the API of the present invention in FaSSIF. Examples of the solubilizing agent include the surfactants or polymers described in the first embodiment. The inclusion of these solubilizing agents facilitates the dissolution of the API of the present invention in FaSSIF. When the surfactant is an alkyl sulfate ester salt (particularly lauryl sulfate), the dissolution properties of the composition of the present invention are excellent. When the polymer is a cellulose derivative (particularly HPMC), the dissolved API of the present invention is less likely to precipitate, and the dissolved state is more likely to be maintained for a long period of time.

[0085] Lubricants are components that adhere to the powder surface to reduce the adhesive force between powder particles and help improve the flowability of the powder. Examples of lubricants include stearates (e.g., magnesium stearate, calcium stearate), stearic acid, light anhydrous silicic acid, shellac, talc, carnauba wax, paraffin, sodium stearyl fumarate, fumaric acid, stearyl alcohol, magnesium aluminometasilicate, hardened oil, glycerin, etc., and stearates, light anhydrous silicic acid, shellac, talc, carnauba wax, paraffin, and sodium stearyl fumarate are preferred, stearates are more preferred, and magnesium stearate is most preferred.

Preferably, the above ranges are values ​​relative to the weight of the monohydrate of the hydrochloride salt of the compound represented by formula (1).

[0087] When the composition according to the present embodiment is used to manufacture a capsule, the composition according to the present embodiment may be the content of the capsule. The content of the lubricant may be 0.1 to 20.0 wt %, 0.1 to 15.0 wt %, or 0.1 to 10.0 wt %, preferably 0.5 to 10.0 wt %, and more preferably 1.0 to 8.0 wt %, based on the weight of the entire capsule minus the weight of the empty capsule (i.e., the weight of the content of the capsule).

[0088] Another aspect of this embodiment is a method for improving the dissolution of an API of the present invention in a composition, the method comprising the co-presence of a disintegrant in said composition. Preferably, the "dissolution" referred to herein refers to the dissolution of the API of the present invention in FaSSIF.

[0089] [Third Embodiment] One embodiment of the present invention is a composition comprising the API of the present invention and a lubricant. The description of the first embodiment can be referred to for the API of the present invention. According to this embodiment, a composition can be provided that can reduce adhesion of the composition containing the API of the present invention to a punch during formulation (tabletting).

[0090] Adhesion to punches during tableting can be evaluated by calculating the "ejection force." It has been reported that a decrease in ejection force is positively correlated with a decrease in adhesion to punches (see, for example, Bekuechukwu U. et al. Int. J. Pharmacol. 2018, 543, 234-244; S. Paul et al. Int. J. Pharmacol. 2017, 521, 374-383; and B. Uzondu et al. Int. J. Pharmacol. 2018, 543, 234-244). As used herein, "ejection force" refers to the maximum force applied to the lower punch when a tablet is ejected from a tablet compressed using, for example, a Huxley Bertram compression simulator HB100 under conditions such as a compression speed of 20.0 RPM, a pre-compression pressure of 1.8 kN, and a main compression pressure of 11.9 kN to obtain oval-shaped tablets (major radius: 12.15 mm, minor radius: 6.42 mm). This force can be used as an indicator of tablet adhesion to the punch during compression. For example, "reduced adhesion" means that the ejection force is significantly lower than that of a composition having the same composition except that it does not contain a lubricant. The compression simulator HB100 (Huxley Bertram) can be used as the compression simulator.

[0091] Examples of lubricants in this embodiment include stearates (e.g., magnesium stearate, calcium stearate), stearic acid, light anhydrous silicic acid, shellac, talc, carnauba wax, paraffin, sodium stearyl fumarate, fumaric acid, stearyl alcohol, magnesium aluminometasilicate, hardened oil, and glycerin, with stearates, light anhydrous silicic acid, shellac, talc, carnauba wax, paraffin, and sodium stearyl fumarate being preferred, stearates being more preferred, and magnesium stearate being most preferred.

[0092] In certain embodiments, the content of the lubricant may be 0.1 to 20.0 wt%, 0.1 to 15.0 wt%, or 0.1 to 10.0 wt%, preferably 0.5 to 10.0 wt%, and more preferably 1.0 to 8.0 wt%, based on the weight of the total composition. Also, in certain embodiments, the content of the lubricant is 0.1 to 50.0 wt%, 0.1 to 20.0 wt%, 0.1 to 15.0 wt%, 0.1 to 10.0 wt%, 1.0 to 40.0 wt%, or 3.0 to 35.0 wt%, preferably 1.0 to 40.0 wt%, and more preferably 3.0 to 35.0 wt%, based on the weight of the API of the present invention. Preferably, the above ranges are values ​​relative to the weight of the monohydrate of the hydrochloride salt of the compound represented by formula (1).

[0093] When the composition according to the present embodiment is used to manufacture a capsule, the composition according to the present embodiment may be the content of the capsule. The content of the lubricant may be 0.1 to 20.0 wt %, 0.1 to 15.0 wt %, or 0.1 to 10.0 wt %, preferably 0.5 to 10.0 wt %, and more preferably 1.0 to 8.0 wt %, based on the weight of the entire capsule minus the weight of the empty capsule (i.e., the weight of the content of the capsule).

[0094] The composition according to this embodiment may further contain a pharmaceutically acceptable additive. Examples of the pharmaceutically acceptable additive include an excipient, a binder, a solubilizing agent, a disintegrant, a colorant, a flavoring agent, a stabilizer, an emulsifier, an absorption enhancer, a pH adjuster, a preservative, and an antioxidant. The description of the first embodiment can be referred to for details of these additives.

[0095] In particular, the composition according to this embodiment preferably further contains a solubilizing agent and / or a disintegrating agent.

[0096] The solubilizing agent is a component useful for improving the solubility of the API of the present invention in FaSSIF. Examples of the solubilizing agent include the surfactants or polymers described in the first embodiment. The inclusion of these solubilizing agents makes the API of the present invention more soluble in FaSSIF. When the surfactant is an alkyl sulfate ester salt (particularly lauryl sulfate), the dissolution of the API composition of the present invention is also excellent. When the polymer is a cellulose derivative (particularly HPMC), the dissolved API of the present invention is less likely to precipitate, and the dissolved state is more likely to be maintained for a long period of time.

[0097] Disintegrants are components that help facilitate dissolution of the API of the present invention, and examples of disintegrants include croscarmellose sodium, carmellose sodium, carmellose, carmellose calcium, methylcellulose, and polysorbate.

[0098] In certain embodiments, the preferred disintegrant is at least one selected from the group consisting of croscarmellose sodium, crospovidone, starch, pregelatinized starch, agar, gelatin powder, calcium carbonate, sodium chloride, sodium bicarbonate, calcium citrate, anhydrous silicic acid, dextrin, pectin, carmellose, carmellose calcium, low-substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose, and sodium starch glycolate. The inclusion of such a disintegrant facilitates dissolution of the API of the present invention after oral administration as a tablet. Furthermore, in certain embodiments, the preferred disintegrant is croscarmellose sodium or crospovidone, with croscarmellose sodium being more preferred.

[0099] In certain embodiments, the content of the disintegrant may be 0.1 to 40.0 wt %, preferably 0.1 to 25.0 wt %, and more preferably 0.1 to 10.0 wt %, based on the weight of the total composition. Furthermore, in certain embodiments, the content of the disintegrant is 0.1 to 80.0 wt %, preferably 0.1 to 60.0 wt %, and more preferably 0.1 to 40.0 wt %, based on the weight of the API of the present invention. When the content of the disintegrant is within the above range, the API of the present invention is more easily dissolved after oral administration as a tablet. The above range is preferably a numerical value relative to the weight of the monohydrate of the hydrochloride of the compound represented by formula (1).

[0100] When the composition according to the present embodiment is used to manufacture a capsule, the composition according to the present embodiment may be the content of the capsule. The content of the disintegrant may be 0.1 to 40.0 wt %, preferably 0.1 to 25.0 wt %, and more preferably 0.1 to 10.0 wt %, based on the weight of the entire capsule minus the weight of the empty capsule (i.e., the weight of the content of the capsule).

[0101] Another aspect of this embodiment is a method for improving adhesion of an API of the present invention in a composition to a punch during tableting, the method comprising the co-presence of a lubricant in the composition.

[0102] In this specification, the compositions of the first, second, and / or third embodiments may be referred to as "compositions of the present invention."

[0106] In certain embodiments, the method for producing the composition according to this embodiment comprises mixing the API of the present invention, a solubilizing agent, a disintegrant, and a lubricant.

[0107] When the composition according to this embodiment is in the form of a tablet, the API of the present invention, a solubilizer, and, if necessary, a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier are mixed to obtain a mixture, which is then compressed to obtain granules (hereinafter, this process is referred to as the granulation process). In the granulation process, the pressing speed may be 1.0 to 3.0 RPM, and the pressure may be 3.0 to 14.0 kN, or 3.0 to 8.0 kN. Here, increasing the pressure (granulation pressure) in the granulation process may reduce adhesion to punches during tableting. Granulation may be either dry granulation or wet granulation. The granules are then sized using a mill, and a lubricant is added before tableting (hereinafter, this process is referred to as the tableting process). In the tableting process, the pressing speed may be 20.0 to 40.0 RPM, and the pressure may be 1.0 to 15.0 kN. The tableting step is preferably carried out by pressing in two stages, the first pressing being carried out at a pressure of 1.0 to 2.0 kN, and the second pressing being carried out at a pressure of 5.0 to 15.0 kN.

[0108] When the composition according to this embodiment is in the form of a tablet, the content of the solubilizing agent is, relative to the weight of the total composition, 0.1 to 25.0 wt%, 0.1 to 24.0 wt%, 0.1 to 23.0 wt%, 0.1 to 22.0 wt%, 0.1 to 21.0 wt%, 0.1 to 20.0 wt%, 0.1 to 19.0 wt%, 0.1 to 18.0 wt%, 0.1 to 17.0 wt%, 0.2 to 25.0 wt%, 0.2 to 24.0 wt%, 0.2 to 23.0 wt%, 0. 2 to 22.0 wt%, 0.2 to 21.0 wt%, 0.2 to 20.0 wt%, 0.2 to 19.0 wt%, 0.2 to 18.0 wt%, 0.2 to 17.0 wt%, 0.3 to 25.0 wt%, 0.3 to 24.0 wt%, 0.3 to 23.0 wt%, 0.3 to 22.0 wt%, 0.3 to 21.0 wt%, 0.3 to 20.0 wt%, 0.3 to 19.0 wt%, 0.3 to 18.0 wt%, or 0.3 to 17.0 wt% is preferred.

[0109] The tablets may be further coated (coated tablets) by spraying a coating solution obtained by mixing HPMC, talc, titanium oxide, and water, for example.

[0110] When the composition according to this embodiment is in the form of a capsule, the API of the present invention, a solubilizer, and, if necessary, a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier are mixed to obtain a mixture, which is then sieved as necessary, and the mixture is then filled into an empty capsule. The capsule may be a hard capsule, a soft capsule, or an enteric-coated capsule. The capsule may be made of gelatin, HPMC, placenta, or the like. The capsule size can be set arbitrarily, and standards are listed, for example, in the Japanese Pharmacopoeia. Capsule size 1 has a filling weight of 0.30 to 0.60 g and a volume of approximately 0.47 mL.

[0111] When the composition according to this embodiment is in the form of a capsule, the content of the solubilizing agent is 0.1 to 25.0 wt%, 0.1 to 24.0 wt%, 0.1 to 23.0 wt%, 0.1 to 22.0 wt%, 0.1 to 21.0 wt%, 0.1 to 20.0 wt%, 0.1 to 19.0 wt%, 0.1 to 18.0 wt%, 0.1 to 17.0 wt%, 0.2 to 25.0 wt%, or 0.2 to 24.0 wt% based on the weight of the entire composition excluding the capsule (i.e., the weight of only the capsule contents). , 0.2 to 23.0 wt%, 0.2 to 22.0 wt%, 0.2 to 21.0 wt%, 0.2 to 20.0 wt%, 0.2 to 19.0 wt%, 0.2 to 18.0 wt%, 0.2 to 17.0 wt%, 0.3 to 25.0 wt%, 0.3 to 24.0 wt%, 0.3 to 23.0 wt%, 0.3 to 22.0 wt%, 0.3 to 21.0 wt%, 0.3 to 20.0 wt%, 0.3 to 19.0 wt%, 0.3 to 18.0 wt%, or 0.3 to 17.0 wt% is preferred.

[0112] When the composition according to this embodiment is used to produce capsules, the content of the disintegrant may be 0.1 to 40.0 wt %, preferably 0.1 to 25.0 wt %, and more preferably 0.1 to 10.0 wt %, based on the weight of the entire capsule minus the weight of the empty capsule (i.e., the weight of the contents of the capsule).

[0113] When the composition according to this embodiment is used to produce capsules, the content of the lubricant may be 0.1 to 20.0 wt %, 0.1 to 15.0 wt %, or 0.1 to 10.0 wt %, preferably 0.5 to 10.0 wt %, and more preferably 1.0 to 8.0 wt %, based on the weight of the entire capsule minus the weight of the empty capsule (i.e., the weight of the contents of the capsule).

[0114] A further aspect of this embodiment is the use of a composition of the invention in the manufacture of a medicament for treating a patient in need of treatment with an API of the invention.

[0115] [Treatment or Prevention of Cancer] The composition of the present invention may be a pharmaceutical composition. One embodiment of the present invention is a method of treating a patient in need of treatment with an API of the present invention, comprising administering to the patient a composition of the present invention.

[0116] In certain embodiments, the method comprises administering a composition of the present invention in combination with a chemotherapeutic agent (concomitant administration) to treat or prevent cancer in a patient who has been detected as having a positive RB1 gene mutation or reduced expression of the RB1 gene or protein.

[0117] In certain embodiments, the method comprises administering a composition of the present invention in combination with a chemotherapeutic agent (concomitant administration) to treat or prevent cancer in a cancer patient who is positive for an RB1 gene mutation or has reduced expression of the RB1 gene or protein.

[0118] Since the API of the present invention has MYT1 inhibitory activity, use of the composition of the present invention improves the solubility of the API of the present invention or reduces adhesion to equipment during formulation (particularly adhesion to punches during tableting), making it easier to produce pharmaceuticals (particularly tablets and capsules) that are more suitable for the treatment or prevention of cancer.

[0119] "Cancer treatment" in the present invention means a reduction in the number of cancer cells in an individual, inhibition of cancer cell proliferation, reduction in tumor volume, reduction in tumor weight, inhibition of cancer cell metastasis, or amelioration of various symptoms caused by cancer, or a combination thereof. Furthermore, "cancer prevention" in the present invention means preventing the development of new cancer cells, preventing an increase in the number of cancer cells due to the re-proliferation of reduced cancer cells, preventing the regrowth of cancer cells whose proliferation has been inhibited, preventing a re-increase in the volume or weight of reduced tumors, or a combination thereof.

[0120] RB1 (retinoblastoma gene, also known as Rb or RB) is a gene encoding the RB1 protein, a representative cell cycle regulator, and is involved in the G1 / S checkpoint. The RB1 protein (also known as RB1 or pRb) forms a complex with E2F, a transcription factor responsible for inducing the expression of genes involved in the transition from the G1 phase to the S phase of the cell cycle, thereby suppressing the activity of E2F. When E2F activity is suppressed, the transition from the G1 phase to the S phase is inhibited.

[0121] As used herein, "positive for RB1 gene mutation" means that, when the nucleotide sequence corresponding to the RB1 gene of interest is analyzed, some mutation (e.g., a mutation resulting in the insertion, substitution, deletion, and / or addition of at least one amino acid residue relative to the wild-type RB1 protein) is found in the nucleotide sequence compared to the nucleotide sequence of the wild-type RB1 gene, or, if a mutation in the nucleotide sequence of the RB1 gene is reflected in a base change in a transcription product or an amino acid change in a translation product, the change is detected in the transcription product or translation product. In certain embodiments, a positive RB1 gene mutation is detected in a biological sample (e.g., cancer cells) derived from a cancer patient. As used herein, "detecting a mutation" generally means detecting a mutation in genomic DNA, but also includes detecting the change in the transcription product or translation product (i.e., indirect detection) when the mutation in the genomic DNA is reflected in a base change in a transcription product or an amino acid change in a translation product. A preferred embodiment of the method herein is a method of detecting a mutation by directly determining the nucleotide sequence of the RB1 gene region in a cancer cell. There are no particular limitations on the method for detecting a positive RB1 gene mutation, and for example, confirmation and determination can be performed by NGS (next generation sequencer).

[0122] In the present invention, the term "RB1 gene region" refers to a certain region on genomic DNA that contains the RB1 gene. This region independently includes, in addition to the translated region, untranslated regions such as expression control regions of each gene (e.g., promoter regions and enhancer regions) and the 3'-terminal untranslated region of each gene. In this method, a DNA sample is first prepared from a biological sample. Examples of DNA samples include genomic DNA samples and cDNA samples prepared by reverse transcription from RNA.

[0123] In this embodiment, DNA containing the RB1 gene region is then isolated, and the nucleotide sequence of the isolated DNA is determined. The DNA can be isolated, for example, by PCR using genomic DNA or RNA as a template, using a pair of oligonucleotide primers designed to flank all or part of the RB1 gene region. The nucleotide sequence of the isolated DNA can be determined by methods known to those skilled in the art, such as the Maxam-Gilbert method or the Sanger method, and a next-generation sequencer or the like capable of rapid and comprehensive analysis of gene nucleotide sequences can also be used.

[0124] By comparing the determined DNA or cDNA base sequence with a control (for example, if the biological sample is derived from a cancer patient, with the DNA or cDNA base sequence derived from non-cancerous tissue of the same patient or with a publicly known database), it is possible to determine whether or not there is a mutation in the RB1 gene region in the cancer cells of the biological sample.

[0125] Mutations in the RB1 gene region can be detected by various methods that allow detection of mutations, in addition to direct determination of the base sequence of DNA or cDNA.

[0126] If the mutation involves an amino acid change in the RB1 protein, the sample prepared from the biological sample may be a protein. In such cases, the mutation can be detected by a method using a molecule (e.g., an antibody) that specifically binds to the site where the amino acid change occurs due to the mutation, peptide mass fingerprinting (PMF), protein sequencer (Edman degradation), or the like.

[0127] As used herein, "decreased expression of the RB1 gene or protein" means that, when the RB1 gene or protein of a subject is analyzed, the expression level of the RB1 gene or protein is lower than that of a control (e.g., expression level in a healthy subject or in non-cancerous tissue of the same patient). In a specific embodiment, the decreased expression level of the RB1 gene or protein is detected in a biological sample (e.g., cancer cells) derived from a cancer patient.

[0128] Methods for detecting decreased expression of the RB1 gene are not particularly limited, and examples include methods in which the expression level of RB1 is detected at the transcription level or translation level and compared with the control. In methods for detecting the expression level of the RB1 gene at the transcription level, RNA or cDNA is first prepared from a biological sample. Methods for extracting RNA from a biological sample and preparing cDNA from the extracted RNA are not particularly limited, and known methods can be appropriately selected and used. Examples include extraction methods using phenol and chaotropic salts (more specifically, extraction methods using commercially available kits such as Trizol (Invitrogen) and Isogen (Wako Pure Chemical Industries)), and methods using other commercially available kits (RNAPrep Total RNA Extraction Kit (Beckman Coulter), RNeasy Mini (QIAGEN), RNA Extraction Kit (Pharmacia Biotech), etc.). Furthermore, the reverse transcriptase used to prepare cDNA from the extracted RNA is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include reverse transcriptases derived from retroviruses such as RAV (Rous associated virus) and AMV (Avian myeloblastosis virus), and reverse transcriptases derived from mouse retroviruses such as MMLV (Moloney murine leukemia virus).

[0129] The oligonucleotide primers or oligonucleotide probes are then used in an amplification reaction or hybridization reaction, respectively, to detect the amplified product or hybrid product. Examples of such methods include RT-PCR, Northern blotting, dot blotting, DNA arrays, in situ hybridization, RNase protection assays, and mRNA-seq. Those skilled in the art can routinely design oligonucleotide primers or oligonucleotide probes suitable for each method based on the nucleotide sequence of RB1 cDNA.

[0130] It is known in the art that promoter hypermethylation is one of the factors that contribute to decreased gene expression. Therefore, in detecting whether or not RB1 function is inhibited, it is conceivable to use methylation of the RB1 gene promoter as an indicator. Promoter methylation can be detected by known methods, such as a method in which a change in the base sequence after bisulfite treatment, which has the activity of converting methylated cytosine to uracil, is directly detected by base sequencing, or a method in which a restriction endonuclease that can recognize (cleave) the base sequence before bisulfite treatment but cannot recognize (cleave) the base sequence after bisulfite treatment.

[0131] The method for detecting decreased expression of RB1 protein is not particularly limited, and can be confirmed and determined, for example, by IHC (immunohistochemical staining) using an antibody specific to RB1 protein. In antibody-based protein detection methods, a protein sample is first prepared from a biological sample. Then, RB1 protein is detected by an antigen-antibody reaction using an antibody specific to RB1 protein. When the antibody specific to RB1 protein is labeled, RB1 protein can be detected directly. However, when the antibody is unlabeled, RB1 protein can be detected indirectly by further reacting it with a labeled molecule that recognizes the antibody (e.g., a secondary antibody or protein A), utilizing the label of the molecule. Examples of such methods include immunohistochemistry (immunostaining), Western blotting, ELISA, flow cytometry, imaging cytometry, radioimmunoassay, immunoprecipitation, and analysis using an antibody array. This method also has the advantage of simultaneously obtaining additional information, such as the morphology and distribution of cancer cells in tissue, through immunohistochemistry.

[0132] As used herein, the amplification of the copy number of the CCNE1 gene can be determined in a diagnostic or prognostic assay by assessing the copy number of the CCNE1 gene using a biological sample derived from a cancer patient (e.g., by next-generation sequencing, digital PCR, array CGH, or FISH).

[0133] As used herein, a "patient" may be a mouse, rat, guinea pig, monkey, dog, sheep, horse, or human. A "patient" is preferably a human. In the present invention, a "cancer patient" refers not only to a person currently suffering from cancer, but also to a person suspected of suffering from cancer. The composition of the present invention can be suitably used in humans.

[0134] As used herein, the term "biological sample derived from a cancer patient" is not particularly limited as long as it is a biological sample capable of detecting the presence or absence of an RB1 gene mutation or reduced expression of the RB1 gene or protein, but is preferably a sample such as a cancer biopsy specimen, blood, urine, body cavity fluid, or tumor cell-derived circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA). Protein extracts or nucleic acid extracts (e.g., mRNA extracts, cDNA preparations or cRNA preparations prepared from mRNA extracts) obtained from the specimens may also be used. As used herein, "biological sample" includes samples derived from cancer patients and samples derived from cancer cell cultures.

[0135] The RB1 gene mutation may include a mutation that results in the insertion, deletion, or addition of at least one amino acid residue relative to the wild-type RB1 protein, or a mutation that results in the substitution of an existing amino acid residue. The RB1 gene mutation may also be a nonsense mutation, a frameshift mutation, a splice site mutation, a heterozygous deletion, or a homozygous deletion. Preferably, the RB1 gene mutation is a mutation that reduces the function of RB1. "Mutations that reduce the function of RB1" can be confirmed, for example, via the Internet at: https: / / www.oncokb.org / gene / RB1 [searched February 20, 2023].

[0136] A typical DNA (cDNA) nucleotide sequence of a human wild-type RB1 gene is shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 (NCBI Reference No.: NM_000321.3), and a typical amino acid sequence of a human wild-type RB1 protein is shown in SEQ ID NO: 2 (NCBI Reference No.: NP_000312.2). In the case of a human RB1 gene, an RB1 gene mutation refers to a nucleotide sequence that is different from the human RB1 genomic sequence set forth at positions 48,303,751 to 48,481,890 in NCBI Reference No. NC_13.11, a nucleotide sequence that is different from the human RB1 genomic sequence set forth at positions 4921 to 5161 in NCBI Reference No. NG_9009.1, or a mutation that results in an amino acid sequence that is different from the amino acid sequence of the human RB1 protein set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2, and may result in at least one of the following (1) to (5): Even in RB1 without mutation, individual differences in the sequence may occur due to polymorphism, etc. (1) The codon corresponding to the serine residue (S) at position 82 in the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2 is replaced with a stop codon, (2) The codon corresponding to the arginine residue (R) at position 467 in the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2 is replaced with a stop codon, (3) At least one base is inserted or deleted in the codon corresponding to the amino acid residue at position 182 in the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2, forming a new reading frame starting with an isoleucine residue (I), and the third reading frame therefrom is a stop codon, (4) The glutamic acid residue (E) at position 837 in the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2 is replaced with a lysine residue (K), and a portion of the RB1 gene is homozygously deleted, or (5) The glycine residue (G) at position 449 in the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2 is replaced with a glutamic acid residue (E), and a portion of the RB1 gene is homozygously deleted.

[0137] As used herein, decreased expression of the RB1 gene or protein includes decreased gene expression due to methylation of the RB1 gene or via microRNA.

[0138] The composition of the present invention can be used to treat or prevent cancer, and is particularly suitable for treating or preventing cancer in cancer patients who have been detected as positive for RB1 gene mutation or in whom reduced expression of the RB1 gene or protein has been detected, or in cancer patients who have been detected as positive for RB1 gene mutation or in whom reduced expression of the RB1 gene or protein has occurred. The composition of the present invention can be used alone or in combination with a chemotherapeutic agent.

[0139] In a particular embodiment, the cancer is lung cancer. The compositions of the present invention are particularly suitable for the treatment or prevention of cancer, and particularly for the treatment or prevention of lung cancer.

[0140] The compositions of the present invention may be used in combination with chemotherapeutic agents. In one embodiment, the compositions of the present invention are administered simultaneously with or separately from the chemotherapeutic agents. In another embodiment, the compositions of the present invention are administered as a combination drug with the chemotherapeutic agents.

[0141] The term "combination" refers to the use of two or more components in combination. For example, the combination of an API of the present invention (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "first component") and a chemotherapeutic agent (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "second component") includes "administration as a single formulation containing the first component and the second component" (i.e., administration of the first component and the second component as a combined drug) and "administration of the first component and the second component as separate formulations, either simultaneously or separately." In the latter embodiment, the formulation containing the first component may be administered first, or the formulation containing the second component may be administered first. The latter embodiment may be any of "an embodiment in which the first component and the second component are formulated separately and administered simultaneously via the same administration route," "an embodiment in which the first component and the second component are formulated separately and administered separately via the same administration route at different times," "an embodiment in which the first component and the second component are formulated separately and administered simultaneously via different administration routes (administered from different sites in the same patient)," and "an embodiment in which the first component and the second component are formulated separately and administered separately via different administration routes at different times." In the case of "an embodiment in which the first component and the second component are formulated separately and administered simultaneously via the same administration route," the two formulations may be mixed immediately before administration. "Separately" means that one formulation is administered before or after the other formulation.

[0142] In other words, "combined use" can also be said to be a method of use in which one component is present in the patient's body while the other component is present in the patient's body. That is, a preferred embodiment is one in which the first component and the second component are administered so that they are simultaneously present in the patient's body, for example, in the blood, and a preferred embodiment is one in which one formulation is administered to the patient simultaneously, or one formulation is administered to the patient within 48 hours of the other formulation being administered.

[0143] A chemotherapeutic agent is a substance that has anti-cancer activity (also called anti-tumor activity). A chemotherapeutic agent can be, for example, an antimetabolite.

[0144] An antimetabolite is a substance that has a chemical structure similar to that of a metabolic substance (e.g., folic acid) and antagonizes or inhibits the metabolic mechanism of an organism. Examples of an antimetabolite include antifolates.

[0145] Antifolates are substances that inhibit DNA biosynthesis by suppressing or inhibiting the activity of enzymes that reduce folic acid to active folic acid, which is essential for nucleic acid synthesis. Examples of antifolates include methotrexate and pemetrexed. A more preferred antifolate is pemetrexed.

[0146] In this embodiment, the preferred chemotherapeutic agent to combine with the compositions of the present invention is pemetrexed.

[0147] The dosage of the API of the present invention is preferably 0.001 to 50 mg per kg of body weight of the subject per day (0.001 to 50 mg / kg / day), more preferably 0.001 to 20 mg / kg / day, and even more preferably 0.002 to 10 mg / kg / day. When the dosage of the API of the present invention is within these ranges, the cancer treatment or prevention effect is further enhanced. The frequency of administration of the API of the present invention can be, for example, once or more per week, twice per week, once per day, or twice per day.

[0148] The dosage of the chemotherapeutic agent is preferably 0.005 to 300 mg per kg of body weight of the subject per day (0.005 to 300 mg / kg / day), more preferably 0.01 to 250 mg / kg / day, and even more preferably 0.02 to 200 mg / kg / day. When the dosage of the chemotherapeutic agent is within these ranges, the cancer treatment or prevention effect is further enhanced. The frequency of administration of the chemotherapeutic agent can be, for example, once or more per week, twice per week, once per day, or twice per day.

[0149] In the present invention, administration methods include oral, rectal, parenteral (intravenous, intramuscular, subcutaneous, transdermal), intracisternal, intravaginal, intraperitoneal, intravesical, or topical (injection, infusion, powder, ointment, gel, or cream) administration, and inhalation (buccal or nasal spray). Dosage forms include, for example, tablets, capsules, granules, powders, pills, aqueous and non-aqueous oral solutions and suspensions, and parenteral solutions packaged in containers adapted for individual dosages. Dosage forms can also be adapted for various administration methods, including controlled-release formulations such as subcutaneous implants.

[0150] The first component can be, for example, administered by any of the methods described above, and the second component can be, for example, administered by the same or different method as the first component.

[0151] Another aspect of this embodiment is the use of a composition of the invention for the manufacture of a medicament to be administered in combination with a chemotherapeutic agent for the treatment or prevention of cancer in a patient in whom RB1 gene mutation or reduced expression of the RB1 gene or protein has been detected. Another aspect of this embodiment is the use of a composition of the invention for the manufacture of a medicament to be administered in combination with a chemotherapeutic agent for the treatment or prevention of cancer in a patient in whom RB1 gene mutation or reduced expression of the RB1 gene or protein has occurred.

The inhibition rate was calculated when each concentration of compound 1 was added, with the signal without compound 1 set to 100% and the signal without MYT1 protein set to 0%. IC 50 The results are shown in Table 1. IC of 10 μM or less 50 When the above expression is observed, it can be determined that the kinase activity of MYT1 protein is inhibited.

[0193] (6-3) Results As shown in Table 1, Compound 1 had an IC value of 10 μM or less in the binding assay for the ATP binding site of MYT1. 50 This suggests that it binds to the ATP binding site of the MYT1 protein. In addition, in a MYT1 kinase activity inhibition test, it had an IC value of 10 μM or less. 50 These results suggest that the compound is capable of inhibiting the kinase activity of MYT1 protein, i.e., is a MYT1 inhibitor.

[0194] Test Example 2: Test of combined cytotoxic activity of pemetrexed and compound 1 1. Experimental materials and methods (1) Cell line The cell line LU65 (provided by the JCRB Cell Bank) was used for the evaluation of the present invention. LU65 is a lung cancer cell line that has a truncated deletion mutation of S82* in the RB1 gene (see Non-Patent Document 22), resulting in decreased RB1 function. Cell culture was performed using RPMI-1640 medium (manufactured by SIGMA) containing 10% FBS (manufactured by SIGMA).

[0195] (2) Cytotoxicity test by pemetrexed when Compound 1 was added Pemetrexed (Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.) and Compound 1 at various concentrations were diluted with DMSO, and 0.04 μL of the dilution series and DMSO were added to each well of a cell culture plate using an Echo 555 Liquid Handler (Beckman Coulter). 1,000 LU65 cells (40 μL) were added to each well, and the mixture was incubated at 37°C and 5% CO. 2The cells were cultured in an incubator for 7 days. The amount of intracellular ATP, a marker of cell viability, was measured and used to monitor cell number. After culture, 20 μL of CellTiter-Glo® 2.0 (Promega) was added to each well, and luminescence intensity was measured using a Multimode Plate Reader EnVision® Xcite (PerkinElmer). The luminescence of the DMSO-added wells minus the luminescence of the non-cell-seeded wells was set as 100%, and the viability under each condition was calculated by calculating the percentage of luminescence detected in each well minus the luminescence of the non-cell-seeded wells.

[0196] The cytotoxic activity under each condition was calculated by subtracting the viability at each combination of pemetrexed treatment concentration and Compound 1 treatment concentration from 100%. Furthermore, based on the cytotoxic activity of wells to which Compound 1 was not added at each pemetrexed concentration and the cytotoxic activity of wells to which Compound 1 was not added at each pemetrexed concentration, a Bliss score (see Non-Patent Document 23) based on Bliss independence, which serves as an index of the combined effect of each combination of pemetrexed concentration and Compound 1 concentration, was calculated, and the maximum value thereof and the concentrations of pemetrexed and Compound 1 at which the maximum value was obtained are listed in Table 2. The HSA score (see Non-Patent Document 23), which serves as an index of the combined effect different from Bliss independence, was also calculated, and the maximum value thereof and the concentrations of pemetrexed and Compound 1 at which the maximum value was obtained are listed in Table 2. It can be determined that a combined effect exists when both the maximum Bliss score and the maximum HSA score are 10% or more.

[0197] 2. Results As shown in Figure 1 and Table 2, in the pemetrexed cytotoxicity test when Compound 1 was added, the maximum Bliss score and maximum HSA score were both 10% or more, suggesting that Compound 1 inhibits the function of MYT1 in cells and exerts a combined effect with pemetrexed.

[0198] Effect of Additive Type on Solubility of Monohydrate of Hydrochloride of Compound 1 (Example 1-1-1) Monohydrate of hydrochloride of Compound 1 (1.2 mg) was added to FaSSIF (1.2 mL) kept at 37.0°C under 1 atm conditions and dissolved by shaking at 1500 rpm for 4 hours. After shaking, the mixture was centrifuged at 12000 rpm to obtain a supernatant, which was then filtered. The resulting filtrate was mixed 1:1 with a DMSO / EG solution (60:40 (v / v)) containing approximately 20 μg / mL of 21NE as an internal standard to prepare a measurement sample. The concentration of Compound 1 in the filtrate was measured by HPLC. The residue obtained after the test was measured by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The HPLC measurement conditions were as follows: Apparatus name: ACQUITY UPLC H-Class (trade name) Detector: ultraviolet absorption spectrophotometer Column: ACQUITY UPLC TM BEH C 18 Column (product name): Particle size: 1.7 μm, inner diameter 2.1 mm × length 50 mm Column temperature: Constant temperature around 40°C Detection wavelength: 250 nm Mobile phase A: 0.05% TFA / water Mobile phase B: 0.05% TFA / acetonitrile Gradient: The mixing ratio of mobile phases A and B was controlled as shown in Table 5. Injection volume: 5.0 μL Sample temperature: room temperature

[0199] The XRD measurement conditions were as follows: Measurement device (model): Empyrean (trade name, manufactured by Malvern Panalytical) Anticathode: Cu Tube voltage: 45 kV Tube current: 40 mA Step width: 0.026° Scan axis: 2θ Scan speed: 0.013° / sec Scan range: 3-25°

[0200] The XRD evaluation conditions were as follows: Measuring device (model): Empyrean (trade name, manufactured by Malvern Panalytical) Anticathode: Cu Tube voltage: 45 kV Tube current: 40 mA Step width: 0.026° Scan axis: 2θ Scan speed: 1.313° / sec Scan range: 3-25°

[0201] Example 1-1-2: Compound 1 hydrochloride monohydrate (1.2 mg) was added to FaSSIF (1.2 mL) containing SLS (0.5 mg / mL) kept at 37.0°C under 1 atm conditions, and dissolved by shaking at 1,500 rpm for 4 hours. After shaking, the mixture was centrifuged at 12,000 rpm to obtain a supernatant, which was then filtered. The resulting filtrate was mixed 1:1 with a DMSO / EG solution (60:40 (v / v)) containing approximately 20 μg / mL of 21NE as an internal standard to prepare a measurement sample. The concentration of Compound 1 in the filtrate was measured by HPLC (n=3). The HPLC measurement conditions were the same as in Example 1-1-1.

[0202] Examples 1-1-3 to 1-1-18 Measurements were carried out in the same manner as in Example 1-1-2, except that Additive 1 and Additive 2 in Table 6 were used instead of SLS. The additives used are as follows: Sucrose fatty acid ester (manufactured by Daiichi Kogyo Seiyaku Co., Ltd., trade name: DKesterSS) Poloxamer188: poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(propylene glycol)-block-poly(ethylene glycol) (manufactured by Merck Millipore, trade name: ParteckPLX188) HPMC: hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (manufactured by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd., trade name: HPMC TC5E) HPMCAS: hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate (manufactured by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd., trade name: AQOAT AS-LG) HPMCP: hydroxypropyl methylcellulose phthalate (manufactured by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd., HPMCP55) MC: methylcellulose (manufactured by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd., trade name: METOLOSE SM-4VF) HPC: hydroxypropyl cellulose (manufactured by Nisso, trade name: HPC SL) PVA: polyvinyl alcohol (Merck Millipore, trade name: ParteckCOAT) Kollidon 30: Polyvinylpyrrolidone (trade name, manufactured by BASF) Kollidon VA64: Polyvinylpyrrolidone-vinylpyrrolidone-vinyl acetate copolymer (trade name, manufactured by BASF) EUDRAGIT L100: Methacrylic acid copolymer L (trade name, manufactured by Evonik) EUDRAGIT L100-55: Dry methacrylic acid copolymer LD (trade name, manufactured by Evonik) Soluplus: Polyvinyl caprolactam-polyvinyl acetate-polyethylene glycol graft copolymer (trade name, manufactured by BASF)

[0203] The concentrations of Compound 1 measured by HPLC are shown in Table 6. In Table 6, "SD" stands for standard deviation.

[0204] As shown in Table 6, except for Examples 1-1-4 and 1-1-15, the monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1 exhibited high solubility.

[0205] Furthermore, in Examples 1-1-1, 1-1-4, and 1-1-18, the residues obtained after the above tests were measured by XRD. The results are shown in Figure 2. As shown in Figure 2, Example 1-1-4 suggested a transition in the crystalline form of the monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1, but Example 1-1-18 did not suggest a transition in the crystalline form of the monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1, and showed higher solubility than Example 1-1-5. It was found that Poloxamer 188, when used in combination with HPMC or the like, improves the solubility of the monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1.

[0206] Effect of the amount of additive added on the solubility of the monohydrate of hydrochloride of compound 1 (Example 1-2-1) The monohydrate of hydrochloride of compound 1 (152.4 mg) and SLS (13.3 mg) were weighed and mixed in a mortar, and the mixture was sieved through a sieve (mesh opening 500 μm) to prepare a mixed powder, which was then separated into 41.4 mg portions. The separated mixed powder was added to FaSSGF (40 mL) heated to 37.0 ° C. and stirred at 50 rpm for 30 minutes. Next, 5x concentrated FaSSIF (10 mL) was added, and aqueous sodium hydroxide solution was added to adjust the pH to 6.5. After a predetermined period of time had elapsed since preparation (5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 45, 60, 120, and 240 minutes), the test solution was filtered, and the resulting filtrate was mixed 1:1 with a DMSO / EG solution (60:40 (v / v)) to prepare a measurement sample, and the concentration of Compound 1 in the filtrate was calculated by HPLC. The HPLC measurement conditions were as follows: Apparatus name: ACQUITY UPLC H-Class (trade name) Detector: ultraviolet absorption spectrophotometer Column: ACQUITY UPLC TM BEH C 18 Column (product name): Particle size: 1.7 μm, inner diameter 2.1 mm × length 50 mm Column temperature: constant temperature around 40°C Detection wavelength: 250 nm Mobile phase A: 0.05% TFA / water Mobile phase B: 0.05% TFA / acetonitrile Gradient: The mixing ratio of mobile phases A and B was controlled as shown in Table 7. Injection volume: 2.0 μL Sample temperature: room temperature

[0207] Examples 1-2-2 to 1-2-5 Except for changing the amount of SLS as shown in Table 8, the concentration of Compound 1 was calculated in the same manner as in Example 1-2-1.

[0208] The results are shown in Table 8 and Figure 3. As shown in Figure 3, the greater the amount of SLS added, the higher the solubility of the monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1 in FaSSIF.

[0209] (Example 1-2-6) Compound 1 hydrochloride monohydrate (45 mg), lactose hydrate (90 mg), and sucrose fatty acid ester (37.5 mg) were weighed and mixed in a mortar, and the mixture was sieved through a sieve (mesh opening 500 μm) to prepare a mixed powder, which was then separated into 57.5 mg portions. The separated mixed powder was added to FaSSIF (50 mL) heated to 37.0°C and stirred at 50 rpm. After a predetermined time had elapsed since stirring (5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 45, 60, 120, and 240 minutes), the test solution was sampled and filtered. The resulting filtrate was mixed 1:1 with a DMSO / EG solution (60:40 (v / v)) containing approximately 20 μg / mL of 21NE as an internal standard to prepare a measurement sample. The concentration of Compound 1 in the filtrate was measured by HPLC. The HPLC measurement conditions were as follows: Device name: ACQUITY UPLC H-Class (trade name) Detector: Photodiode array detector Column: ACQUITY UPLC BEH Shield RP-18 Column (trade name), particle size: 1.7 μm, inner diameter 2.1 mm × length 50 mm Column temperature: constant temperature around 40°C Detection wavelength: 339 nm (compound 1) / 282 nm (internal standard substance) Mobile phase A: 0.05% TFA / water Mobile phase B: 0.05% TFA / acetonitrile Gradient: The mixing ratio of mobile phases A and B was controlled as shown in Table 9. Injection volume: 1.0 μL Sample temperature: constant temperature around 20°C

[0210] Examples 1-2-7 to 1-2-10 Measurements were carried out in the same manner as in Example 1-2-6, except that the amounts of sucrose fatty acid ester and lactose hydrate were changed as shown in Table 10, and the concentrations of Compound 1 were calculated.

[0211] The results are shown in Table 10 and Figure 4. As shown in Figure 4, the monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1 showed higher solubility in FaSSIF as the amount of sucrose fatty acid ester added increased.

[0212] Effect of Formulation of Composition Comprising Monohydrate of Hydrochloride of Compound 1 and Surfactant (Example 1-3-1) Monohydrate of hydrochloride of Compound 1 (112.5 mg) and SLS (84.4 mg) were weighed and mixed in a mortar, and the mixture was sieved through a sieve (mesh opening 500 μm) to prepare a mixed powder, which was then divided into 43.8 mg portions. The mixed powder was filled into HPMC capsules (size 1). The capsules filled with the mixed powder were added to FaSSIF (50 mL) heated to 37.0°C and stirred at 50 rpm. After a predetermined time had elapsed since stirring (15, 30, 60, 120, and 240 minutes), the test solution was filtered, and the resulting filtrate was mixed 1:1 with a DMSO / EG solution (60:40 (v / v)) containing approximately 20 μg / mL of 21NE as an internal standard substance to prepare a measurement sample. The concentration of Compound 1 in the filtrate was calculated by HPLC. The HPLC measurement conditions were the same as in Example 1-2-6.

[0213] Example 1-3-2 The concentration of Compound 1 was calculated in the same manner as in Example 1-3-1, except that the amount of SLS was changed as shown in Table 11 and no capsules were filled with SLS.

[0214] The results are shown in Table 11 and Figure 5. In the table, + indicates that the mixed powder was filled into a capsule, and - indicates that the mixed powder was not filled into a capsule.

[0215] Example 1-3-3: Compound 1 hydrochloride monohydrate (112.5 mg) and sucrose fatty acid ester (84.4 mg) were weighed and mixed in a mortar, and the mixture was sieved through a sieve (500 μm mesh) to prepare a mixed powder, which was then aliquoted into 43.8 mg portions. The mixed powder was filled into HPMC capsules (size 1). The filled capsules were added to FaSSIF (50 mL) heated to 37.0°C and stirred at 50 rpm. After a predetermined time had elapsed since stirring (15 minutes, 30 minutes, 60 minutes, 120 minutes, and 240 minutes), the test solution was filtered, and the resulting filtrate was mixed 1:1 with a DMSO / EG solution (60:40 (v / v)) containing approximately 20 μg / mL of 21NE as an internal standard to prepare a measurement sample. The concentration of Compound 1 in the filtrate was calculated by HPLC. The HPLC measurement conditions were the same as in Example 1-2-6.

[0216] Example 1-3-4 The concentration of Compound 1 was calculated in the same manner as in Example 1-3-3, except that the compound was not filled into capsules.

[0217] The results are shown in Table 12 and Figure 6. As shown in Figure 6, it was suggested that the dissolution rate of Compound 1 for FaSSIF in the capsules of Example 1-3-3 tended to be lower than the dissolution rate of the monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1 in Example 1-3-4.

[0218] Stability of Formulated Compound 1 Hydrochloride Monohydrate (Example 1-4-1) Compound 1 hydrochloride monohydrate (890.0 mg), SLS (667.5 mg), and HPMC (142.4 mg) were weighed and mixed in a mortar so that the content of Compound 1 hydrochloride monohydrate per capsule was 25 mg (set value: 25 mg), and the mixture was sieved through a sieve (mesh opening 500 μm) to prepare a mixed powder, which was then aliquoted into 47.8 mg portions. The mixed powder was filled into HPMC capsules (size 1). The filled capsules were placed in airtight glass vials and stored in a thermostatic chamber set at 40° C. for one month. The capsules after storage were dissolved in an acetonitrile / water mixture (50:50 (v / v), 100 mL) and filtered. The resulting filtrate was mixed with an acetonitrile / water mixture (50:50 (v / v)) at a ratio of 4:6 to prepare a measurement sample, and the concentration of Compound 1 in the filtrate was measured by HPLC. From the measured concentration of Compound 1, the content of the monohydrate of hydrochloride of Compound 1 in the formulation was calculated (measured value), and the percentage (%) of this measured value relative to the set value was calculated. The HPLC measurement conditions were as follows: Device name: ACQUITY UPLC H-Class (trade name) Detector: Photodiode array detector Column: Inertsil ODS-HL (trade name), 2.1 mm ID × 50 mm, 1.9 μm (GL Sciences) Column temperature: Constant temperature around 35°C Detection wavelength: 325 nm Mobile phase A: 0.05% TFA / water Mobile phase B: 0.05% TFA / acetonitrile Gradient: The mixing ratio of mobile phases A and B was controlled as shown in Table 13. Injection volume: 1.0 μL Sample temperature: 10°C

[0219] Example 1-4-2 Except for changing the storage humidity as shown in Table 14, the ratio of the measured value to the set value of the content of Compound 1 was calculated in the same manner as in Example 1-4-1.

[0220] Comparative Example 1-4-1 In Comparative Example 1-4-1, the sample was treated in the same manner as in Example 1-4-1 without being stored in a thermostatic chamber.

[0221] The results are shown in Table 14. As shown in Table 14, no significant change was observed in the ratio of the measured content of Compound 1 to the set value for the capsules filled with a mixed powder consisting of the monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1, SLS, and HPMC, suggesting that the capsules have good stability under heated or heated and humidified conditions.

[0222] Effect of Solubilizing Agent (Example 2-1-1) The monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1 and each additive were mixed by inversion in a glass vial to obtain a mixed powder of the monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1 (23.7 wt%), SLS (10.3 wt%), mannitol (26.6 wt%), microcrystalline cellulose (CEOLUS PH-101) (27.6 wt%), HPMC (4.1 wt%), croscarmellose sodium (5.0 wt%), light anhydrous silicic acid (1.0 wt%), and magnesium stearate (1.6 wt%). The obtained mixed powder was added to FaSSIF (60 mL) heated to 37.0°C and stirred with a stirrer. After a predetermined period of time had elapsed since stirring (60 minutes, 120 minutes, 180 minutes, and 240 minutes), the test solution was filtered, and the resulting filtrate was mixed 1:1 with a DMSO / EG solution (60:40 (v / v)) to prepare a measurement sample, and the concentration of Compound 1 in the filtrate was calculated by HPLC. The HPLC measurement conditions were as follows: Apparatus name: ACQUITY UPLC H-Class (trade name) Detector: ultraviolet absorption spectrophotometer Column: ACQUITY UPLC TM BEH C 18 Column (product name): Particle size: 1.7 μm, inner diameter 2.1 mm × length 50 mm Column temperature: constant temperature around 40°C Detection wavelength: 250 nm Mobile phase A: 0.05% TFA / water Mobile phase B: 0.05% TFA / acetonitrile Gradient: The mixing ratio of mobile phases A and B was controlled as shown in Table 15. Injection volume: 2.0 μL Sample temperature: constant temperature around 20°C

[0223] The residue obtained after the test was measured by XRD under the following conditions: Measurement device (model): Empyrean (trade name, manufactured by Malvern Panalytical) Anticathode: Cu Tube voltage: 45 kV Tube current: 40 mA Step width: 0.026° Scan axis: 2θ Scan rate: 0.0740° / sec Scan range: 3-25°

[0224] Example 2-1-2 The monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1 and each additive were mixed by inversion in a glass vial to obtain a mixed powder of the monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1 (23.7 wt%), SLS (10.3 wt%), mannitol (28.7 wt%), microcrystalline cellulose (29.7 wt%, trade name: Ceolus PH-101), croscarmellose sodium (5.0 wt%), light anhydrous silicic acid (1.0 wt%), and magnesium stearate (1.6 wt%). The obtained mixed powder was added to FaSSIF (60 mL) heated to 37.0°C and stirred with a stirrer. After the specified time had elapsed since stirring (60 minutes, 120 minutes, 180 minutes, and 240 minutes), the test solution was filtered, and the resulting filtrate was mixed 1:1 with a DMSO / EG solution (60:40 (v / v)) to prepare a measurement sample, and the concentration of Compound 1 in the filtrate was calculated by HPLC. In addition, the residue obtained after the test was measured by XRD. The HPLC measurement conditions and XRD measurement conditions were the same as those in Example 2-1-1.

[0225] The concentration of Compound 1 measured by HPLC is shown in Figure 7, and the XRD diffraction pattern is shown in Figure 8. As shown in Figure 7, the mixed powder of Example 2-1-1 (containing HPMC) showed improved solubility of the monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1 in FaSSIF after 120 to 240 minutes compared to the mixed powder of Example 2-1-2 (not containing HPMC). Furthermore, as shown in Figure 8, a new peak was observed in the mixed powder of Example 2-1-2, suggesting precipitation. On the other hand, no new peak was observed in the mixed powder of Example 2-1-1, suggesting no precipitation.

[0226] Effect of Disintegrant Type (Example 2-2-1) The monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1 and each additive were mixed by inversion in a 25 mL plastic tube to obtain a mixed powder of the monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1 (22.9 wt%), SLS (10.0 wt%), mannitol (28.6 wt%), microcrystalline cellulose (25.0 wt%, trade name: Ceolus PH-101), HPMC (4.0 wt%), croscarmellose sodium (8.0 wt%), and light anhydrous silicic acid (1.0 wt%). The obtained mixed powder was dry granulated using a compression simulator (trade name: HB100, manufactured by Huxley Bertram) and dry sized using a small-scale hand mill (manufactured by Gerteis). Magnesium stearate (0.5 wt%) was triturated with a portion of the obtained sized powder, and the remaining sized powder was added, and the mixture was mixed by inversion in a 25 mL plastic tube, and compressed using a compression simulator HB100 to obtain tablets with a diameter of 7.00 mm. The tablet manufacturing conditions were as follows: Dry granulation compression speed: 2.0 RPM, compression pressure: 4.0 kN, tableting compression speed: 30.0 RPM, pre-compression pressure: 1.4 kN, main compression pressure: 7.0 kN

[0227] The resulting tablets were added to FaSSGF (480 mL) heated to 37.0 ° C. so that the concentration was 90 mg (as the weight of Compound 1) per vessel, and the mixture was stirred for 30 minutes at 50 rpm. After 15 minutes of stirring (15 minutes before pH adjustment), a test solution for measuring the concentration of Compound 1 was collected. Next, 5x FaSSIF (120 mL) was added to the FaSSGF containing the tablets, and the pH was adjusted to 6.5 with aqueous NaOH. After a predetermined time had passed (immediately after (0 min), 5 min, 10 min, 15 min, 30 min, 45 min, 60 min, 120 min, and 240 min), the test solution was collected and filtered. The resulting filtrate was mixed 1:1 with DMSO / EG solution (60:40 (v / v)) to prepare a measurement sample, and the concentration of Compound 1 in the filtrate was calculated by HPLC. The HPLC conditions were the same as in Example 2-1-1.

[0228] Example 2-2-2: Compound 1 hydrochloride monohydrate and each additive were mixed by inversion in a 25 mL plastic tube to obtain a mixed powder of Compound 1 hydrochloride monohydrate (22.9 wt%), SLS (10.0 wt%), mannitol (28.6 wt%), microcrystalline cellulose (25.0 wt%, trade name: Ceolus PH-101), HPMC (4.0 wt%), crospovidone (8.0 wt%, trade name: Kollidon CL-SF, manufactured by BASF), and light anhydrous silicic acid (1.0 wt%).

After 15 minutes of stirring, a test solution for measuring the concentration of Compound 1 was collected. Next, 5x FaSSIF (120 mL) was added to the FaSSGF containing the tablets, and the pH was adjusted to 6.5 with aqueous NaOH. After a predetermined time had passed (immediately after (0 min), 5 min, 10 min, 15 min, 30 min, 45 min, 60 min, 120 min, and 240 min), the test solution was collected and filtered. The resulting filtrate was mixed 1:1 with DMSO / EG solution (60:40 (v / v)) to prepare a measurement sample, and the concentration of Compound 1 was calculated by HPLC. The HPLC measurement conditions were the same as in Example 2-1-1.

[0230] The results are shown in Figure 9. As shown in Figure 9, the dissolution properties of the tablets in FaSSIF were good regardless of whether croscarmellose sodium or crospovidone (trade name: Kollidon CL-SF, manufactured by BASF) was used as the disintegrant.

The resulting filtrate was mixed 1:1 with DMSO / EG solution (60:40 (v / v)) to prepare a measurement sample, and the concentration of Compound 1 in the filtrate was calculated by HPLC. The HPLC measurement conditions were the same as in Example 2-1-1.

[0233] Example 2-3-2: Compound 1 hydrochloride monohydrate and each additive were mixed by inversion in a 100 mL plastic tube to obtain a mixed powder of Compound 1 hydrochloride monohydrate (24.4 wt%), SLS (10.7 wt%), mannitol (30.3 wt%), crystalline cellulose (26.7 wt%, trade name: Ceolus PH-101), HPMC (4.3 wt%), croscarmellose sodium (2.0 wt%), and light anhydrous silicic acid (1.1 wt%). The obtained mixed powder was dry granulated using a compression simulator HB100 and dry sized using a small-scale hand mill. Magnesium stearate (0.5 wt%) was triturated with a portion of the obtained sized powder, and the remaining sized powder was added.

After 15 minutes of stirring, a test solution for measuring the concentration of Compound 1 was collected. Next, 5x concentration FaSSIF (120 mL) was added to the FaSSGF containing the tablets, and the pH was adjusted to 6.5 with aqueous NaOH. After a predetermined time had passed (immediately after (0 min), 5 min, 10 min, 15 min, 30 min, 45 min, 60 min, 120 min, and 240 min), the test solution was collected and filtered. The resulting filtrate was mixed 1:1 with DMSO / EG solution (60:40 (v / v)) to prepare a measurement sample, and the concentration of Compound 1 in the filtrate was calculated by HPLC. The HPLC measurement conditions were the same as in Example 2-1-1.

The mixture was mixed by inversion in a 25 mL plastic tube and compressed using a compression simulator HB100 to obtain tablets with a diameter of 7.00 mm. The tablet manufacturing conditions were as follows: Dry granulation compression speed: 2.0 RPM, compression pressure: 5.0 kN, Tableting compression speed: 30.0 RPM, pre-compression pressure: 1.5 kN, main compression pressure: 6.0 kN

The resulting filtrate was mixed 1:1 with DMSO / EG solution (60:40 (v / v)) to prepare a measurement sample, and the concentration of Compound 1 in the filtrate was calculated by HPLC. The HPLC measurement conditions were the same as in Example 1-2-1.

[0264] Example 2-8-2: Compound 1 hydrochloride monohydrate and each additive were mixed in a mortar to obtain a mixed powder of Compound 1 hydrochloride monohydrate (22.9 wt%), mannitol (34.3 wt%), crystalline cellulose (31.3 wt%, trade name: Ceolus PH-101), croscarmellose sodium (5.0 wt%), and light anhydrous silicic acid (1.0 wt%). The resulting mixed powder was granulated with water containing HPC (4.0 wt%) and vacuum dried overnight. The resulting granulated powder was dry-sized using a sieve (mesh opening 850 μm), and then magnesium stearate (1.5 wt%) was triturated with a portion of the resulting sized powder. The remaining sized powder was added, and the mixture was mixed by inversion in a 25 mL plastic tube. The mixture was compressed using a compression simulator HB100 to obtain tablets with a diameter of 7.00 mm. The tablet production conditions were as follows. Tableting compression speed: 30.0 RPM Pre-compression pressure: 1.5 kN Main compression pressure: 4.5 kN

[0265] The resulting tablets were added to FaSSGF (480 mL) heated to 37.0 ° C. so that the concentration was 90 mg (as the weight of Compound 1) per vessel, and the mixture was stirred for 30 minutes at 50 rpm. After 15 minutes of stirring, a test solution for measuring the concentration of Compound 1 was collected. Next, 5x concentration FaSSIF (120 mL) was added to the FaSSGF containing the tablets, and the pH was adjusted to 6.5 with aqueous NaOH. After a predetermined time had passed (immediately after (0 min), 5 min, 10 min, 15 min, 30 min, 45 min, 60 min, 120 min, and 240 min), the test solution was collected and filtered. The resulting filtrate was mixed 1:1 with DMSO / EG solution (60:40 (v / v)) to prepare a measurement sample, and the concentration of Compound 1 in the filtrate was calculated by HPLC.

[0266] As shown in Figure 18, in the dry manufacturing process, no decrease in concentration was observed in either the tablet containing SLS (Example 2-7-1) or the tablet not containing SLS (Example 2-8-1), and the dissolution properties were good. Compared to the tablet containing SLS (Example 2-7-1), the dissolution profile of the tablet not containing SLS (Example 2-8-1) was gentler, so the tablet containing SLS had better dissolution properties.

[0267] As shown in FIG. 19, in the wet process, the dissolution profiles of the tablet containing SLS (Example 2-7-2) and the tablet not containing SLS (Example 2-8-2) were almost the same.

[0268] Effect of Solubilizer on Capsules (Example 3-1-1) The monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1 and SLS were weighed and mixed in a mortar to obtain a mixed powder of the monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1 (82.1 wt%) and SLS (17.9 wt%). The mixed powder was sieved through a sieve (500 μm mesh) to prepare a mixed powder, which was then filled into HPMC capsules (size 1). Six capsules were added to FaSSGF (480 mL) heated to 37.0°C and stirred at 50 rpm for 30 minutes. After stirring for 15 minutes, a test solution for measuring the concentration of Compound 1 was collected. Next, 5x FaSSIF (120 mL) was added to the FaSSGF containing the capsules, and the pH was adjusted to 6.5 with aqueous NaOH. After the elapse of a predetermined time (immediately (0 min), 5 min, 10 min, 15 min, 30 min, 45 min, 60 min, 120 min, and 240 min) from the preparation, the test solution was sampled and filtered. The obtained filtrate was mixed with a DMSO / EG solution (60:40 (v / v)) at a ratio of 1:1 to prepare a measurement sample, and the concentration of Compound 1 in the filtrate was calculated by HPLC. The HPLC measurement conditions were the same as those in Example 2-1-1.

[0269] Examples 3-1-2 to 3-1-3 The concentrations of Compound 1 were calculated in the same manner as in Example 3-1-1, except that the contents of Compound 1 and SLS were changed as shown in Table 20.

[0270] The results are shown in Table 20 and Figure 20. As shown in Figure 20, even in capsules, the monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1 showed higher solubility as the ratio (wt %) of SLS to the mixed powder increased.

[0271] Stability of Capsules (Example 3-2-1) The monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1 and each additive were mixed to obtain a mixed powder of the monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1 (24.3 wt%), SLS (10.2 wt%), crystalline cellulose (61.4 wt%, trade name: Ceolus PH-101), and light anhydrous silicic acid (4.1 wt%) so that the content of the monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1 per capsule was 15 mg (set value: 15 mg). The obtained mixed powder was filled into hydroxypropyl methylcellulose capsules (size 1) using a capsule filling machine (trade name: Xcelodose600S, manufactured by LONZA Corporation) to obtain capsules.

[0272] The resulting capsules were filled in 40 capsules per bottle, an airtight container made of HDPE, and stored in a thermostatic chamber set at 40°C and 75% RH for one month. Ten stored capsules were dissolved in an acetonitrile / water mixture (50 / 50 (v / v), 500 mL), then mixed with an acetonitrile / water mixture (50:50 (v / v)) at a ratio of 1:10, filtered, and the concentration of Compound 1 in the filtrate was measured by HPLC. The content of Compound 1 was calculated from the measured concentration of Compound 1 (measured value), and the percentage (%) of the measured value relative to the set value was calculated. The HPLC measurement conditions were the same as in Example 1-4-1.

[0273] The resulting capsules were added to FaSSIF (600 mL) heated to 37.0°C so that the concentration per vessel was 90 mg (as the weight of Compound 1), and the mixture was stirred at 50 rpm. After a predetermined time had elapsed since stirring (5, 10, 15, 30, 45, 60, 120, and 240 minutes), the test solution was filtered, and the resulting filtrate was mixed 1:1 with a DMSO / EG solution (60:40 (v / v)) to prepare a measurement sample. The concentration of Compound 1 in the filtrate was calculated by HPLC. The HPLC measurement conditions were the same as in Example 2-1-1.

[0274] Comparative Example 3-2-1 In Comparative Example 3-2-1, the sample was treated in the same manner as in Example 3-2-1 without being stored in a thermostatic chamber.

[0275] The results are shown in Table 21 and Figure 21. As shown in Figure 21, no significant change was observed in the ratio of the measured value to the set value for the capsules, and no significant change was observed in the dissolution properties, suggesting that the capsules have good stability under heated and humidified conditions.

[0276] Effect of Lubricant Amount (Example 4-1-1) The monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1 and each additive were mixed by inversion in a 25 mL plastic tube to obtain a mixed powder of monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1 (22.9 wt%), SLS (10.0 wt%), mannitol (27.6 wt%), crystalline cellulose (23.0 wt%, trade name: Ceolus PH-101), HPMC (4.0 wt%), croscarmellose sodium (5.0 wt%), light anhydrous silicic acid (1.0 wt%), and magnesium stearate (0.5 wt%) so that the content of Compound 1 per tablet was 60 mg (set value: 60 mg). The obtained mixed powder was dry granulated using a compression simulator HB100 and dry sized using a small-scale hand mill. The obtained sized powder and crystalline cellulose (5.0 wt%, trade name: Ceolus PH-101) were mixed by inversion in a 25 mL plastic tube, and then magnesium stearate (1.0 wt%) was triturated with a portion of the mixed powder of the obtained sized powder and crystalline cellulose, and the remaining mixed powder was added and mixed by inversion in a 25 mL plastic tube. Tablets were compressed using a compression simulator HB100 to obtain oval-shaped tablets (major axis: 12.15 mm, minor axis: 6.42 mm). The tablet manufacturing conditions were as follows: Dry granulation compression speed: 2.0 RPM, compression pressure: 8.0 kN Tableting compression speed: 20.0 RPM, pre-compression pressure: 1.8 kN, main compression pressure: 11.9 kN

[0277] The maximum value of the pressure (ejection force) applied to the lower punch when ejecting the tablet from the die during tableting was obtained using a compression simulator HB100. The ejection force was measured 17 times in total, and the average value was calculated.

[0278] Example 4-1-2: Compound 1 hydrochloride monohydrate and each additive were mixed by inversion in a 25 mL plastic tube to obtain a mixed powder of Compound 1 hydrochloride monohydrate (22.9 wt%), SLS (10.0 wt%), mannitol (27.4 wt%), microcrystalline cellulose (23.2 wt%, trade name: Ceolus PH-101), HPMC (4.0 wt%), croscarmellose sodium (5.0 wt%), light anhydrous silicic acid (1.0 wt%), and magnesium stearate (0.5 wt%), so that the content of Compound 1 per tablet was 60 mg (set value: 60 mg). The obtained mixed powder was dry granulated using a compression simulator HB100 and dry sized using a small-scale hand mill. The obtained sized powder and crystalline cellulose (4.5 wt%, trade name: Ceolus PH-101) were mixed by inversion in a 25 mL plastic tube, and then magnesium stearate (1.5 wt%) was triturated with a portion of the mixed powder of the obtained sized powder and crystalline cellulose, and the remaining mixed powder was added and mixed by inversion in a 25 mL plastic tube. Tablets were compressed using a compression simulator HB100 to obtain oval-shaped tablets (major axis: 12.15 mm, minor axis: 6.42 mm). The tablet manufacturing conditions were as follows: Dry granulation compression speed: 2.0 RPM, compression pressure: 8.0 kN, tableting compression speed: 20.0 RPM, pre-compression pressure: 1.6 kN, main compression pressure: 11.9 kN

[0279] In the same manner as in Example 4-1-1, the ejection force during tablet production was measured. The ejection force was measured 10 times in total, and the average value was calculated.

[0280] The results are shown in Figure 22. The ejection force was 0.183 kN when the magnesium stearate ratio in the composition was 1.5 wt% (Example 4-1-1). On the other hand, the ejection force was 0.154 kN when the magnesium stearate ratio was 2.0 wt% (Example 4-1-2). Thus, a 0.5 wt% increase in the magnesium stearate ratio resulted in a 16.0% decrease in the ejection force. It has been reported that a decrease in ejection force is positively correlated with a decrease in adhesion to the punch, and these results suggest that increasing the magnesium stearate ratio in the composition to 2.0 wt% would further reduce adhesion to the punch.

The obtained mixed powder was dry granulated using a compression simulator HB100 and dry sized using a small-scale hand mill. The obtained sized powder and crystalline cellulose (16.2 wt%, trade name: Ceolus UF-711) were mixed by inversion in a 25 mL plastic tube, and then magnesium stearate (1.0 wt%) was triturated with a portion of the mixed powder of the obtained sized powder and crystalline cellulose, and the remaining mixed powder was added and mixed by inversion in a 25 mL plastic tube. Tablets were compressed using a compression simulator HB100 to obtain oval-shaped tablets (major axis: 12.15 mm, minor axis: 6.42 mm). The tablet manufacturing conditions were as follows: Dry granulation compression speed: 2.0 RPM, compression pressure: 8.0 kN, tableting compression speed: 20.0 RPM, pre-compression pressure: 1.5 kN, main compression pressure: 10.0 kN

The obtained mixed powder was dry granulated using a compression simulator HB100 and dry sized using a small-scale hand mill. The resulting sized powder and crystalline cellulose (15.2 wt%, trade name: Ceolus UF-711) were mixed by inversion in a 25 mL plastic tube, and then magnesium stearate (1.0 wt%) and sodium stearyl fumarate (1.0 wt%) were individually triturated with a portion of the resulting mixed powder of sized powder and crystalline cellulose, and the remaining mixed powder was added and mixed by inversion in a 25 mL plastic tube. Tablets were compressed using a compression simulator HB100 to obtain oval-shaped tablets (major axis: 12.15 mm, minor axis: 6.42 mm). The tablet manufacturing conditions were as follows: Dry granulation compression speed: 2.0 RPM, compression pressure: 8.0 kN, tableting compression speed: 20.0 RPM, pre-compression pressure: 1.5 kN, main compression pressure: 10.7 kN

[0284] The ejection force during tablet production was measured a total of eight times, and the average value was calculated.

[0285] Example 4-2-3: The monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1 and each additive were mixed by inversion in a 100 mL plastic tube to obtain a mixed powder of the monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1 (19.9 wt%), SLS (8.7 wt%), mannitol (23.8 wt%), microcrystalline cellulose (20.0 wt%, trade name: Ceolus PH-101), HPMC (4.1 wt%), croscarmellose sodium (5.0 wt%), light anhydrous silicic acid (0.9 wt%), and magnesium stearate (0.4 wt%), so that the content of Compound 1 per tablet was 60 mg (set value: 60 mg). The obtained mixed powder was dry granulated using a compression simulator HB100 and dry sized using a small-scale hand mill. The obtained sized powder and crystalline cellulose (13.2 wt%, trade name: Ceolus UF-711) were mixed by inversion in a 25 mL plastic tube, and then magnesium stearate (1.0 wt%) and sodium stearyl fumarate (3.0 wt%) were individually triturated with a portion of the obtained mixed powder of sized powder and crystalline cellulose, and the remaining mixed powder was added and mixed by inversion in a 25 mL plastic tube. Tablets were compressed using a compression simulator HB100 to obtain oval-shaped tablets (major axis: 12.15 mm, minor axis: 6.42 mm). The tablet manufacturing conditions were as follows: Dry granulation compression speed: 2.0 RPM, compression pressure: 8.0 kN, tableting compression speed: 20.0 RPM, pre-compression pressure: 1.4 kN, main compression pressure: 11.5 kN

[0286] The ejection force during tablet production was measured seven times in total, and the average value was calculated.

[0287] The results are shown in Figure 23. In Example 4-2-1, which used magnesium stearate (1.5 wt%) as the lubricant, the ejection force was 0.199 kN. In Example 4-2-2, which used magnesium stearate (1.5 wt%) and sodium stearyl fumarate (1.0 wt%) as the lubricant, the ejection force was 0.182 kN. The combined use of sodium stearyl fumarate (1.0 wt%) reduced the ejection force by 8.4%. In Example 4-2-3, which used magnesium stearate (1.5 wt%) and sodium stearyl fumarate (3.0 wt%), the ejection force was 0.156 kN. The combined use of sodium stearyl fumarate (3.0 wt%) reduced the ejection force by 21.8%. These results suggest that the combined use of magnesium stearate and sodium stearyl fumarate is also effective in reducing adhesion to the punch.

[0288] (Example 4-3-1) The monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1 and each additive were mixed in a 25 mL plastic tube by inversion to obtain a mixed powder of the monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1 (24.4 wt%), SLS (10.6 wt%), mannitol (29.4 wt%), crystalline cellulose (24.5 wt%, trade name: Ceolus PH-101), HPMC (4.3 wt%), croscarmellose sodium (5.3 wt%), light anhydrous silicic acid (1.1 wt%), and magnesium stearate (0.5 wt%) so that the content of Compound 1 per tablet was 30 mg (set value: 30 mg). The obtained mixed powder was tableted using a compression simulator HB100 to obtain tablets with a diameter of 7.00 mm. The tablets were produced by direct compression without a granulation process, and the production conditions were as follows. Tableting compression speed: 20.0 RPM Pre-compression pressure: 1.4 kN Main compression pressure: 7.8 kN

[0289] The ejection force during tablet production was measured seven times in total, and the average value was calculated.

The obtained mixed powder was tableted using a compression simulator HB100 to obtain tablets with a diameter of 7.00 mm. This tablet was produced by direct compression without a granulation process, and the production conditions were as follows. Tableting compression speed: 20.0 RPM Pre-compression pressure: 1.4 kN Main compression pressure: 8.1 kN

[0291] The ejection force during tablet production was measured seven times in total, and the average value was calculated.

[0292] The results are shown in Figure 24. In Example 4-3-1, which contained magnesium stearate (0.5 wt%) in the composition, the ejection force was 0.327 kN. On the other hand, in Example 4-3-2, which used magnesium stearate (0.5 wt%) in combination with sodium stearyl fumarate (3.2 wt%), the ejection force was 0.165 kN, a 49.6% decrease in ejection force. These results suggest that the use of sodium stearyl fumarate in combination with magnesium stearate can further suppress adhesion to punches during production.

[0293] (Example 4-4-1) The monohydrate of the hydrochloride of Compound 1 and each additive were mixed by inversion in a 10 L SUS container so that the content of Compound 1 per tablet was 30 mg (set value: 30 mg), and a mixed powder of Compound 1 hydrochloride monohydrate (23.1 wt%), SLS (10.1 wt%), mannitol (27.9 wt%), crystalline cellulose (28.3 wt%, trade name: Ceolus PH-101), HPMC (4.0 wt%), croscarmellose sodium (5.1 wt%), light anhydrous silicic acid (1.0 wt%), and magnesium stearate (0.5 wt%) was obtained. The obtained mixed powder was tableted using a compression simulator HB100 to obtain tablets with a diameter of 7.00 mm. This tablet was produced by direct compression without a granulation process, and the production conditions were as follows. Tableting compression speed: 20.0 RPM Pre-compression pressure: 1.4 kN Main compression pressure: 8.1 kN

[0294] The ejection force during tablet production was measured. The ejection force was measured a total of 11 times, and the average value was calculated.

This tablet was produced by direct compression without a granulation process, and the production conditions were as follows. Tableting compression speed: 20.0 RPM Pre-compression pressure: 1.6 kN Main compression pressure: 7.8 kN

[0296] The ejection force during tablet production was measured 20 times in total, and the average value was calculated.

[0297] The results are shown in Figure 25. In Example 4-4-1, which contained magnesium stearate (0.5 wt%) in the composition, the ejection force was 0.354 kN. On the other hand, in Example 4-4-2, which used hydrogenated castor oil (5.1 wt%) in combination with magnesium stearate (0.5 wt%), the ejection force was 0.237 kN, a 33.2% decrease in ejection force. These results suggest that the use of hydrogenated castor oil in combination with magnesium stearate can further suppress adhesion to the punch during production.
