Type 2 diabetes is a polygenic disease which afflicts nearly 200 million people worldwide and is expected to increase to near epidemic levels over the next 10−15 years. Glucokinase (GK) activators are currently under investigation by a number of pharmaceutical companies with only a few reaching early clinical evaluation. A GK activator has the promise of potentially affecting both the β-cells of the pancreas, by improving glucose sensitive insulin secretion, as well as the liver, by reducing uncontrolled glucose output and restoring post-prandial glucose uptake and storage as glycogen. Herein, we report our efforts on a sulfonamide chemotype with the aim to generate liver selective GK activators which culminated in the discovery of 3-cyclopentyl-N-(5-methoxy-thiazolo[5,4-b]pyridin-2-yl)-2-[4-(4-methyl-piperazine-1-sulfonyl)-phenyl]-propionamide (17c). This compound activated the GK enzyme (αKa = 39 nM) in vitro at low nanomolar concentrations and significantly reduced glucose levels during an oral glucose tolerance test in normal mice.

Piramal Enterprises Ltd has received US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for its Investigational New Drug (IND) P7435. This is a novel, potent and highly selective, oral diacylglycerolacyltransferase 1 (DGAT1) inhibitor.
P7435 has been developed by the NCE Research Division of PEL for the management of metabolic disorders such as lipid abnormalities and diabetes. It is well-established that increased lipid levels’ (including triglycerides) is one of the major risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD). It has been reported by the World Health Organisation, that CVD, is the number one cause of deaths globally, representing approximately 30 per cent of all deaths. Currently, there is a significant medical need for effective and safe drugs for the management of lipid abnormalities and metabolic disorders.
P7435 has demonstrated its lipid lowering potential in various preclinical studies by showing significant reduction in triglyceride levels, glucose and insulin levels,and decrease in food intake and body weight gain -factors which are associated with lipid abnormalities and metabolic disorders.
PEL has established the safety and tolerability of P7435 in a phase I trial recently completed in India. This extension trial in the US will further evaluate the safety and efficacy of P7435 in a larger population.
Dr Swati Piramal, vice chairperson, Piramal Enterprises, said, “The NCE Research division of PEL continues its ambitious diabetes/metabolic disorders programme to discover and develop NCEs to fight against diseases like diabetes and lipid disorders. With P7435 we are looking at addressing a serious need for effective and well-tolerated drugs that treat lipid disorders, which are commonly associated with diabetes and CVDs. Expansion of this trial will allow testing this NCE in a wider population,which is critical to the development of this drug and will provide therapeutic solutions not just to India but also to the rest of the world.”
The NCE Research division of Piramal Enterprises focuses on the discovery and development of innovative small molecule medicines to improve the lives of patients suffering from cancer, metabolic disorders and inflammatory conditions. The key elements of its strategy include capitalizing on Piramal’s strengths, in particular the India advantage, and leveraging external partnerships to achieve high levels of R&D productivity. Piramal’s state-of-the-art Research Centre in Mumbai has comprehensive capabilities spanning target identification all the way through clinical development. Its robust pipeline, including 8 compounds in clinical development, bears testimony to its innovative and rigorous drug discovery process.

Synthesis of Linear Fragment—Fmoc-FRVTQLAPKAQIKE
Desiccated CLEAR-Amide resin ((100-200 mesh) 0.4 mmol/g, 0.5 g) was distributed in 2 polyethylene vessels equipped with a polypropylene filter. The linear peptide synthesis on solid phase were carried out automatically, using Symphony parallel synthesizer (PTI) using the synthesis programs mentioned in the table below. Swelling, C-terminal amino acid [Fmoc-Glu(OtBu)-OH] attachment and capping of the peptidyl resin was carried out as per the protocol in Table I. Subsequent amino acid coupling was carried out as mentioned in Table II. The amino acids used in the synthesis were Fmoc Phe-OH, Fmoc-Arg(Pbf)-OH, Fmoc-Val-OH, Fmoc-Thr(OtBu)-OH, Fmoc-Gln(Trt)-OH, Fmoc-Lys(Boc)-OH, Fmoc-Leu-OH, Fmoc-Ala-OH, Fmoc-Pro-OH, Fmoc-Ile-OH. After the completion of Fmoc-Phe-OH coupling the resin was taken out form peptide synthesiser and manual coupling was carried out as follows.

Pierre Fabre are thus reinforcing their oncology portfolio which already enjoys a combination of chemotherapies, monoclonal antibodies and immuno-conjugates assets at various development phases
Feb 13, 2014, 03:14 ET from Aurigene and Pierre Fabre Pharmaceuticals
CASTRES, France and BANGALORE, India, February 13, 2014 /PRNewswire/ —
Pierre Fabre, the third largest French pharmaceutical company, and Aurigene, a leading biotech company based in India, today announced that the two companies have entered into a collaborative license, development and commercialization agreement granting Pierre Fabre global Worldwide rights (excluding India) to a new immune checkpoint modulator, AUNP-12.
AUNP-12 offers a breakthrough mechanism of action in the PD-1 pathway compared to other molecules currently in development in the highly promising immune therapy cancer space. AUNP-12 is the only peptide therapeutic in this pathway and could offer more effective and safer combination opportunities with emerging and established treatment regimens. AUNP-12 will be in development for numerous cancer indications.
Under the terms of this agreement, Aurigene will receive an upfront payment from Pierre Fabre. Aurigene will also receive additional milestone payments based upon the continued development, regulatory progresses and commercialization of AUNP-12.
“We are pleased that Pierre Fabre see the PD-1 program as a strategic asset in their portfolio. Overall, the deal structure, in line with the financial terms that have been seen in this space, demonstrate the importance that Pierre Fabre attach to the program,” said CSN Murthy, CEO, Aurigene.
“The plans that Pierre Fabre have detailed for the development of this differentiated asset highlight the long-term opportunities for this novel cancer therapeutic,” added Murali Ramachandra, Sr VP, Research, Aurigene.
“This agreement, in the field of oncology, is fully consistent with our vision to build Pierre Fabre’s future in prescription drugs, from a combination of cutting-edge internal R&D capabilities and license partnerships with innovative biotech companies like Aurigene,” stated Bertrand Parmentier, CEO, Pierre Fabre.
“With this deal, Pierre-Fabre Pharmaceuticals are reinforcing their portfolio of oncology assets and capitalizing on their proven capabilities in developing biological compounds such as monoclonal antibodies and immuno-conjugates. We have been impressed by the science at Aurigene and encouraged by the differentiated profile reported for AUNP-12,” added Frédéric Duchesne, President, Pierre Fabre Pharmaceuticals.
About immuno-oncology
Immuno-oncology is an emerging field in cancer therapy, where the body’s own immune system is harnessed to fight against cancer. This approach of targeting cancer through immune response has had a breakthrough when robust and sustained responses were obtained only upon blocking the immune checkpoint targets (such as PD-1 and CTLA4). Recent successes in clinical trials performed with such therapies suggest that immunotherapy should be considered alongside surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and targeted therapy as the fifth cornerstone of cancer treatment.
PD-1 (Programmed cell Death 1) is a receptor that negatively regulates T-cell activation by interacting with specific ligands PD-L1 and PD-L2. Tumor cells express these ligands and thereby escape from the action of T-cells.
About AUNP-12
AUNP-12 is a branched 29-amino acid peptide sequence engineered from the PD-L1/ L2 binding domain of PD-1 It blocks the PD-1/PD-L1, PD-1/PD-L2 and PD-L1/CD80 pathways. AUNP-12 is highly effective in antagonizing PD-1 signaling, with desirable in vivo exposure upon subcutaneous dosing. It inhibits tumor growth and metastasis in preclinical models of cancer and is well tolerated with no overt toxicity at any of the tested doses.

What are the factors led to the scores of partnerships in research and drug discovery space? Biology demands expertise in areas such as DMPK, cell and assay biology and vivo expertise, which is not as common as chemistry expertise in India. There is also a paradigm shift in assignments for CROs, as they are gearing up to gain higher value from existing projects, including Intellectual Property (IP) generation. Probably, this is where Aurigene has a head start over other CROs. Although we are in research services, our success is in IP generated work. We work with world-class companies like Novo Nordisk, Rheoscience, Debiopharm, Forest Labs and Merck Serono on integrated discovery projects. What do you think is the uniqueness of Aurigene that sets it apart from other companies? It is understood that a major chunk of the business for CROs is from global customers. What is the reason for this? The whole concept of drug discovery outsourcing business has caught on in the last 18-month. Could you give us an overview of the market? In India, CROs operate differently. The innovation driven companies are taking on ‘collaborative drug discovery’ projects, leveraging the mutual strengths each has to offer the other (cost and expertise respectively). Therefore, the complexion of business is different from that of the Western countries. We would see large outsourcing companies positioning themselves as offshore partners for pharma-biotech majors. They could also go in for a BOT (Build Operate Transfer) model. Under this model, companies will set-up the facility and manage it to make it a ‘centre of excellence’, focusing on certain disease segments. Another option is that some companies can take up their own programmes to develop compounds and enter into licensing partnerships. This is similar to the US and Europe biotech style of working. Both of these practices are likely to happen in India. How much do you acknowledge science and strategy in Aurigene’s growth? What according to you is the future of the drug discovery sector? |

a selective modulator of S1P1 and S1P5 receptors, allowing S1P1 receptor-dependent modulation of lymphocyte traffic without producing S1P3 receptor-mediated effects.
Phase III
A sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor modulator potentially for the treatment of multiple sclerosis(MS).
Research Code BAF-312
CAS. 1230487-00-9, 1234627-85-0
Siponimod, (BAF312) is a selective sphingosine-1-phosphatereceptor modulator for oral use that is an investigational drug for multiple sclerosis (MS). It is intended for once-daily oral administration.[1]
As of January 2016 it is in a phase III clinical trial for secondary progressive MS due to complete Dec 2016.
AF312 is a potent and selective agonist of S1P with EC50 value of 0.39nM for S1P1 receptors and 0.98nM for S1P5 receptors, respectively [1]. BAF312 has shown >1000-fold selectivity for S1P1 versus S1P2, S1P3 and S1P4 receptors [1]. In vitro metabolism studies with liver microsomes have shown that the metabolic clearance of BAF312 is high in rat, low to moderate in monkey and human being, and low in dog and mouse. Moreover, BAF312 has been revealed to dose-dependently reduce peripheral lymphocyte counts in Lewis rats [2].For the detailed information about the solubility of BAF312 in water, the solubility of BAF312 in DMSO, the solubility of BAF312 in PBS buffer, the animal experiment of BAF312 ,the in vivo and in vitro test of BAF312 ,the cell experiment of BAF312 ,the IC50 and EC50 of BAF312
(June 8, 2009) It is in Phase II trial. “A back-up compound for Fingolimod, BAF 312” is in Phase II studies.[2] It is being tested for the first time on people having multiple sclerosis. Worldwide 275 patients will participate in this phase II trial the outcome of which is to establish what the optimal dosage of BAF312 is for patients affected with Multiple Sclerosis for use in further trials. In order to identify “the optimal dosage”, participants in group I will be randomly selected to take either placebo, or BAF312 in doses of 0.5 mg/day, 2 mg/day, or 10 mg./day and will be regularly controlled in order to measure and determine the effectiveness, the tolerability and the safety of the dosages.
A phase III trial should run from Dec 2012 to Dec 2016.[3]
None yet
Siponimod binds selectively to some of the Sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor forms – including Sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 1 – found on lymphocytes and other cell types.
This binding inhibits the migration of the lymphocytes to the location of the inflammation (e.g. in MS).
BAF312, may be very similar to Fingolimod but preventing lymphopenia, one of its main side effects, by preventing egress of lymphocytes from lymph nodes. BAF312 may be more selective in the particular sphingosine-1-phosphate receptors (8 in number) that it modulates.[4] It is selective for the -1 and -5 SIP receptors.[1]

The said process has a major disadvantage of using column chromatography which is not feasible at plant scale production.
PCT application no. WO 2012147019, discloses the preparation of Silodosin as shown in scheme- 1, wherein the Ν,Ν-dialkyl impurity of Formula (Ila) formed during condensation of 3-{7-cyano-5-[(2R)-2-aminopropyl]-2,3-dihydro-lH-indol-l-yl}propyl benzoate of Formula (III) with 2-(2-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)phenoxy)ethyl methanesulfonate of Formula (IV); is removed through preparation of monotartarate salt to give compound of Formula (VI). The compound of Formula (VI) is base hydrolyzed followed by cyano hydrolysis to give crude Silodosin of Formula (VIII) which is then further purified by crystallization to get desired pure Silodosin.
Scheme- 1:
Major drawback of above said reaction process is that multiple isolations and crystallizations are required to get pure Silodosin.
Similarly, US 7,834,193 discloses monooxalate salt represented by Formula Via having 0.9% of dialkyl impurity represented by Formula Ila. The oxalate salt so obtained is subjected to alkaline hydrolysis followed by transformation of the nitrile to an amide.
Formula (Ila)
Similarly, PCT application no. WO 2012147107, discloses the method wherein Silodosin is prepared by condensation of 3-{7-cyano-5-[(2R)-2-aminopropyl]-2,3-dihydro-lH-indol-l-yl} propyl benzoate with 2-[2-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)phenoxy]ethyl methanesulfonate in solvent using base and phase transfer catalyst wherein, dialkyl impurity is formed up to 11%, followed by hydroxyl deprotection in protic solvent using base and phase transfer catalyst which is then subjected to purification to remove N,N-dialkyl impurity represented by Formula (lib) up to 0.6% through the preparation of acetate salt. This process suffers from a serious drawback i.e., accountable formation of dialkyl impurity and even after purification the impurity is reduced to only up to 0.6%. Secondly, the process requires multiple isolations and purifications ensuing into time engulfing workups and purifications and hence incurring solvent wastage. This makes process lengthy, uneconomical and tedious to be performed at plant scale.
Another PCT application no. WO 2012131710, discloses the preparation of Silodosin in which the chiral compound (3-(5-((R)-2-aminopropyl)-7-cyanoindolin-l-yl)propyl benzoate) is reacted with 2-[2-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)phenoxy]ethyl methane sulfonate in isopropyl alcohol using sodium carbonate as base. The reaction is completed in 40-50h and about 9-11% of dimer is formed during condensation. After completion of reaction, it is subjected to hydroxyl deprotection and the crude compound so obtained is purified to remove the Ν,Ν-dialkyl impurity of Formula (lib). The pure compound is then reacted with hydrogen peroxide in dimethyl sulfoxide to give Silodosin. The major drawback of this process is that the process is a multistep process wherein the condensation reaction is long-drawn-out resulting into countable amount of dimer formation during the process.
Thus, the prior art methods of preparing Silodosin require multiple and repeated purifications to synthesize DMF (Drug Master File) grade Silodosin. None of the prior art produces compound of Formula (VI) or (VII) with Ν,Ν-dialkyl impurity of Formula (Ila) or (lib) in an amount less than 0.6% to 0.5% even after purification. Therefore to prepare highly pure Silodosin, there is a need to explore new synthetic schemes that could be more economical and scalable. The present invention provides a novel, improved, commercially viable and industrially advantageous process for the synthesis of Silodosin and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts or solvates thereof. The present invention focus on preparation of highly pure Silodosin in appreciable yields with minimal use of solvents wherein the Silodosin is isolated with purity >99.5% having Ν,Ν-dialkyl impurity less than 0.03% and other individual impurities below 0.1%.

Samit Satish Mehta holds the position of the President – Research & Development
Acitretin of formula (I), chemically known as (2E,4E,6E,8E)-9-(4-methoxy-2,3,6- trimethyl)phenyl-3,7-dimethyl-nona-2,4,6,8-tetraenoic acid, is a second generation retinoid a roved by USFDA in 1996, for the treatment of psoriasis.
Acitretin (I)
The process for preparation of acitretin (I) was first disclosed in US 4,105,681 wherein the intermediate, 5-(4-methoxy-2,3,6-trimethylphenyl)-3-methyl-penta-2,4-diene-l-triphenyl phosphonium bromide was reacted with 3-formyl-crotonic acid butyl ester in presence of sodium hydride as base and dimethylformamide as solvent. The resultant ester derivative was obtained with a trans is (E/Z) ratio of around 55:45 which was subjected to hydrolysis in presence of potassium hydroxide and ethyl alcohol to obtain acitretin.
Use of hazardous, highly pyrophoric and moisture sensitive reagent like sodium hydride, along with cumbersome work-up and successive crystallizations to obtain the desired isomer rendered the process unviable for commercial scale.
Indian patent application 729/MUM/2012 discloses use of organic bases such as triethyl amine or pyridine for the reaction of 3-formyl-crotonic acid butyl ester and 5-(4-methoxy-2,3,6-trimethylphenyl)-3-methyl-penta-2,4-diene-l -triphenyl phosphonium bromide for the synthesis of acitretin. The process utilizes a large excess of the organic base (2.85:1.0) with respect to the reactant phosphonium bromide derivative. Further, there is no mention of the ratio of cis and trans geometric isomers of the product thus obtained either at the intermediate or final stage. The trans: cis (E/Z) ratio of the intermediate significantly impacts the final yield and purity of the product as several purifications and crystallizations are required to obtain the desired trans isomer.
The present inventors have experimentally observed that use of organic base in such large quantities severely hampers the removal of the undesired side product triphenyl phosphonium oxide formed in significant amounts. Also, the intermediate is obtained with a very modest trans: cis (E/Z) ratio.
WO2012/155796 discloses another method wherein alkali metal alkoxides are used as bases in the reaction of 5-(4-methoxy-2,3,6-trimethylphenyl)-3 -methyl -penta-2,4-diene-l -triphenyl phosphonium bromide with 3-formyl-crotonic acid. The obtained reaction mass, after adjusting pH to 7-8 with acid, is directly subjected to catalytic isomerization using catalysts such as Pd(OAc)2 or Pd(NH3)2Cl2. The reaction mixture so obtained is quenched with water, neutralized and filtered to get the desired product, which is further recrystallized from ethyl acetate. Although this procedure avoids the hydrolysis step and attempts in-situ isomerization, however the use of expensive, soluble palladium catalyst which cannot be recycled from the reaction mass coupled with lengthy reaction time of 25-30 hours and large solvent volumes make the process unviable.
It may be noted that in the synthesis of acitretin, the key reaction of 5-(4-methoxy-2,3,6-trimethylphenyl)-3 -methyl-penta-2 ,4-diene- 1 -triphenylphosphoniumbromide with 3 -formyl crotonic acid or its ester in presence of either strong inorganic bases such as sodium hydride, alkali metal alkoxides or organic bases like triethylamine is common to almost all synthetic routes disclosed in the prior art. Hence, all these routes suffer from the inherent problems of formation of undesired impurities including cis-isomeric compounds and their separation from the desired all-trans product which necessitates various purification methods ranging from column chromatography, multiple crystallizations etc.
Thus, there still exists a need for a convenient, easy-to-scale up process for synthesis of acitretin (I) which avoids use of pyrophoric strong bases and provides a robust method which affords acitretin having desired isomeric purity in high yield.

(2E,4E,6E,8E)-9-(4-methoxy-2,3,6-trimethylphenyl)-3,7-dimethylnona-2,4,6,8-tetraenoic acid
Acitretin is an oral retinoid effective in the treatment of psoriasis. It is the major metabolite of ETRETINATE with the advantage of a much shorter half-life when compared with etretinate.
| Molecular Formula: | C21H26O3 |
|---|---|
| Molecular Weight: | 326.42934 g/mol |
Acitretin (trade names Soriatane and Neotigason) is a second-generation retinoid. It is taken orally, and is typically used for psoriasis.
It is a metabolite of etretinate, which was used prior to the introduction of acitretin. Etretinate was discontinued because it had a narrow therapeutic index as well as a long elimination half-life (t1/2=120 days), making dosing difficult. In contrast, acitretin’s half-life is approximately 2 days. However, because acitretin can be reverse metabolised into etretinate which has an extremely long half-life, women must avoid becoming pregnant for at least 3 years[1] after discontinuing acitretin. Therefore, acitretin is generally not recommended for women of child-bearing age with a risk of becoming pregnant.
Acitretin is an oral retinoid used in the treatment of severe resistant psoriasis. Because of the potential for problems and severe side effects it is generally used in only very severe cases of psoriasis that have been unresponsive to other treatments. It binds to nuclear receptors that regulates gene transcription. They induce keratinocyte differentiation and reduce epidermal hyperplasia, leading to the slowing of cell reproduction. Acitretin is readily absorbed and widely distributed after oral administration. A therapeutic effect occurs after 2 to 4 weeks or longer.
Patients that have received the medication are advised against giving blood for at least 3 years due to the risk of birth defects.[2]

Polymorphic forms of lomitapide and its salts and processes for their preparation
Zydus Cadila Healthcare Ltd
The present invention relates to various polymorphic forms of lomitapide or its salts and processes for preparation thereof. The present invention provides Lomitapide mesylate in solid amorphous form and process for preparation thereof. The invention also provides an amorphous solid dispersion of lomitapide mesylate. Further, various crystalline forms of lomitapide mesylate like A, B and C and process for preparation thereof are provided. The invention also provides crystalline forms of lomitapide free base, in particular Form I and Form-II and their preparation. The invention further provides compositions comprising various forms of lomitapide and its salts.
A novel amorphous form of lomitapide mesylate (having >98% of purity and 0.5% of residual solvent and particles size D90 of >250 µm, D50 of >100 µm and D10 of >50 µm), a process for it preparation and a composition comprising it is claimed. Also claimed is an amorphous solid dispersion of lomitapide mesylate and a carrier (eg hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose acetate succinate). Further claimed are crystalline forms of lomitapide mesylate (designated ad Forms A, B, C, I, II and free base of lomitapide in amorphous form), processes for their preparation and compositions comprising them. Lomitapide is known to act as a microsomal triglyceride transfer protein inhibitor, useful for treating familial hypercholesterolemia.
Lomitapide is a synthetic lipid-lowering agent for oral administration. It is a microsomal triglyceride transfer protein inhibitor approved as Juxtapid® in US and as Lojuxta® in Europe as an adjunct to a low-fat diet and other lipid-lowering treatments, including LDL apheresis where available, to reduce low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), total cholesterol (TC), apolipoprotein B (apo B), and non-highdensity lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) in patients with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH). The approved drug product is a mesylate salt of lomitapide, chemically known as N-(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)-9-[4-[4-[[[4′(trifluoromethyl)[1,1′-biphenyl]-2-yl]carbonyl]amino]-1-piperidinyl]butyl]-9H-fluorene-9carboxamide methanesulfonate [“lomitapide mesylate” herein after] and has the structural formula
As per the approved label for Juxtapid® (US) “Lomitapide mesylate is a white to off-white powder that is slightly soluble in aqueous solutions of pH 2 to 5. Lomitapide mesylate is freely soluble in acetone, ethanol, and methanol; soluble in 2-butanol, methylene chloride, and acetonitrile; sparingly soluble in 1-octanol and 2-propanol; slightly soluble in ethyl acetate; and insoluble in heptane”.
As per Public Assessment Report for Lojuxta® (Europe) “Polymorphism has been observed for lomitapide mesylate. Of the different solid-state forms, hydrates, and solvates identified in the polymorph studies, only 2 desolvated solid-state forms, Form I and Form II, were identified in batches after drying to final drug substance.” The report further states, under the heading Manufacture, that “The final particle size distribution is controlled during the crystallisation step” (emphasis added) suggesting that the approved drug product lomitapide mesylate is a crystalline compound
U.S. Pat. No. 5,712,279 A discloses the lomitapide compound and a process for its preparation. It also discloses a process for preparation of lomitapide monohydrochloride.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,883,109 A discloses lomitapide mesylate specifically but no solid form was disclosed.
The reference article Synthesis and Applications of Isotopically Labelled Compounds, Vol. 8, Pg. 227-230 (2004) discloses the preparation of Deuterium labelled [d4]BMS-201038, [3H]BMS-201038, [14C]BMS-201038 wherein BMS-201038 is lomitapide mesylate.
International (PCT) Publication No. WO 2015/121877 A2 discloses lomitapide crystalline Form I and Form II as well as amorphous form of Lomitapide mesylate and processes for their preparation.
There is still a need to provide a novel polymorph of lomitapide or its salts which is suitable for pharmaceutical preparations. Therefore, the present invention provides new crystalline forms of lomitapide free base and lomitapide mesylate. The present invention also provides amorphous form of lomitapide free base and lomitapide mesylate, which is stable and useful for pharmaceutical preparations.
In a 250 mL round bottom flask, equipped with a mechanical stirrer, thermometer and an addition funnel, 10 g lomitapide and 20 mL methanol were added and stirred to obtain a solution. 1.5 g methane sulfonic acid dissolved in 20 mL water was added slowly to the above solution under stirring. The reaction mixture was stirred till maximum salt formation was achieved. 50 mL water was added to the mixture, stirred for 15-20 min, filtered and washed with water. The product was dried further to obtain lomitapide mesylate.
EXAMPLE 2
10 g lomitapide mesylate, 50 mL acetone and 150 mL ethyl acetate were heated in a 500 mL round bottom flask, equipped with a mechanical stirrer, thermometer and an addition funnel at 50-55° C. and stirred to obtain clear solution. The solution was subjected to spray drying in JISL Mini spray drier LSD-48 with feed pump running at 30-35 rpm, inlet temperature 50-55° C., out let temperature 45-50° C., aspiration rate 1200-1300 rpm, hot air supply 1.8-2.2 Kg/cm2 and vacuum for conveying the dry product 80 mmHg. The product was collected from cyclone and characterized to an amorphous form by x-ray powder diffraction. The product was further dried to obtain the amorphous form of lomitapide mesylate
