The structure of ledipasvir was unambiguously confirmed by 1 H, 13C and 19F NMR spectroscopy, UV spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy, high resolution mass spectrometry, elemental analysis and X-ray crystallography. LDV-AS is a white to tinted (off-white, tan, yellow, orange, or pink), slightly hygroscopic crystalline solid. It shows pH dependent solubility in aqueous media: it is slightly soluble in pH 2.3 buffer but practically insoluble in pH 4-7.5 buffers. It is freely soluble in ethanol and DMSO and slightly soluble in acetone. Ledipasvir is chiral and possesses 6 stereogenic centres and enantiomeric purity is controlled in starting material specifications. Three crystalline forms are known and ledipasvir acetone solvate is the designated commercial form. The first step for finished product manufacture involves the dissolution of ledipasvir in ethanol followed by spray-drying and thus precise control of morphology and particle size is not considered important. Ledipasvir is a chemical substance not previously authorised as a medicinal product in the European Union. Furthermore, it is not a salt, complex, derivative or isomer, (nor mixture of isomers), of a previously authorised substance. Whilst it contains some structural features in common with daclastavir, it is metabolically stable and the applicant presented data indicating that there are no common active metabolites. Therefore, the therapeutic moieties are not the same. Ledipasvir thus meets the definition of a New Active Substance according to the Notice to Applicants (NtA), Vol 2A, Chapter 1, Annex 3.
The mode of action of ledipasvir has not been directly established but indirect evidence is consistent with the compound targeting the NS5A molecule. In vitro resistance selection and cross-resistance studies, and the lack of HCV enzyme or kinase inhibition was taken to support the conclusion that ledipasvir targets NS5A as its mode of action. Ledipasvir has shown antiviral activity against HCV genotypes 1a and 1b with mean EC50 values of 0.031 and 0.004 nM, respectively. Antiviral activity determined as EC50 against genotypes 2 to 6 ranged from 0.15 to 530 nM. Ledipasvir showed no relevant antiviral activity at the highest concentration tested, or the highest concentration without cytotoxicity, against other virus such as bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV), RSV, HBV, HIV-1, HRV, influenza A and B, and a panel of flaviviruses (including West Nile virus, yellow fever virus, dengue virus, and banzai virus). Cytotoxicity of ledipasvir was characterised by CC50 of 4029 to >50000 nM using different cell lines (1b-Rluc-2, Huh-luc, 1a-HRlucp, Hep G2, SL3, Huh7, Hep-2, AD-38 and MT4 cells). Ledipasvir at 10 µM showed significant binding to 3 ion channels and 1 receptor in a radioligand binding assay screen against a panel of 68 mammalian ion channels and receptors. The IC50s of ledipasvir were 0.210 and 3.47 μM against sodium channel site 2 and calcium channel L-type (dihydropyridine), respectively. A 50% inhibition of androgen receptor was noted at 10 μM. Ledipasvir activity against 442 kinases was assessed using a quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR)-based competition assay. Results showed weak competition for binding of 2 kinases, Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK) and homeodomain-interacting protein kinase 1 (HIPK1) at 0.1 and 1 μM, respectively. Taking into account the high protein binding, >99.5%, of ledipasvir the large margin between unbound maximum clinical plasma levels (0.8 nM) and potential ion channel/receptor inhibition indicates limited clinical relevance.
Ledipasvir (formerly GS-5885) is a drug for the treatment of hepatitis C that was developed by Gilead Sciences.[1] After completingPhase III clinical trials, on February 10, 2014 Gilead filed for U.S. approval of a ledipasvir/sofosbuvirfixed-dose combination tablet for genotype 1 hepatitis C.[2][3] The ledipasvir/sofosbuvir combination is a direct-acting antiviral agent that interferes with HCV replication and can be used to treat patients with genotypes 1a or 1b without PEG-interferon or ribavirin.
Ledipasvir is an inhibitor of the hepatitis C virusNS5A protein.
Data presented at the 20th Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections in March 2013 showed that a triple regimen of the nucleotide analog inhibitor sofosbuvir, ledipasvir, and ribavirin produced a 12-week post-treatment sustained virological response (SVR12) rate of 100% for both treatment-naive patients and prior non-responders with HCV genotype 1.[4][5] The sofosbuvir/ledipasvir coformulation is being tested with and without ribavirin. In February 2014 Gilead has filed for United StatesFood and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of ledipasvir/sofosbuvir oral treatment, without interferon and ribavirin.[6]
On October 10, 2014 the FDA approved the combination product ledipasvir 90 mg/sofosbuvir 400 mg called Harvoni.[7]

Ledipasvir (Harvoni) Ledipasvir is a potent NS5A inhibitor that is approved for use in combination with sofosbuvir, a nucleotide inhibitor of viral polymerase, for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus genotype 1 infection.14,130,131 This combination was discovered and developed at Gilead Sciences and is marketed as the fixed combination with brand name of Harvoni. The synthesis of ledipasvir has been reported in the literature132 and the routes shown in Schemes 22–24 below represent the most efficient and largest scale sequence reported in the patent literature.133,134 The synthesis of the spirocyclopropane proline intermediate 136 is described in Scheme 21. Bis-iodination of cyclopropane-1,1-diyldimethanol (131) in the presence of triphenylphosphine gave diiodide 132 in 70% yield. N-Boc-glycine ethyl ester (133) was then treated with sodium hydride followed by diiodide 132 to give the protected proline analog 134 in 61% yield. Saponification of the ester followed by a classical resolution with (1S,2R)-amino-indanol gave enantomerically pure salt 135. Liberation of the free acid with 1 M HCl followed by treatment with potassium tert-butoxide provided enantiopure potassium salt 136 in high yield. The synthesis of the difluoro-fluorene Suzuki coupling intermediate 143 is described in Scheme 22. Iodination of 2-bromofluorene (137) produced aryl iodide 138 in 95% yield, which was then treated with lithium hexamethyldisilazide and N-fluorobenzenesulfonimide (NFSI) to give the difluoro intermediate 139 in 82% yield. Formation of the Grignard reagent of 139 through reaction with isopropylmagnesium chloride followed by condensation with Weinreb amide 140 gave chloroketone 141 in 71% yield. The potassium salt of the cyclopropyl proline intermediate 136 (described in Scheme 21) was coupled with 141 to give keto ester 142 in high yield. Heating 142 with ammonium acetate resulted in formation of the imidazole ring in intermediate 143 in 77% yield. The completion of the synthesis of ledipasvir is described in Scheme 23. Commercially available (1R,3S,4S)-N-Boc-2-azabicyclo [2.2.1]heptane-3-carboxylic acid (144) was coupled to 4-bromo- 1,2-benzenediamine (145) using EDC/HOBt to give a mixture ofamides 146a/146b in 72% yield. Heating mixture 146a/146b with acetic acid affected cyclization to benzimidazole 147 in 94% yield. Palladium mediated coupling of bromide 147 to bis(pinacolato)diboron gave intermediate148 which was then coupled in the same reaction vessel to bromide 143 generated in Scheme 22. This was followed by formation of the oxalate salt to give the protected central core of ledipasvir (149) in good overall yield. Removal of the amine protecting groups gave diamine 150 which was coupled to two equivalents of Moc-valine (151) via EDC/HOBt to give ledipasvir XVII in 73% yield. 19. Lobeglitazone sulfate

[0186] To a flask was charged 25 (20.00 g, 0.083 mol), 4-bromo-l,2-benzenediamine (16.74 g, 0.089 mol, 1.08 equiv.), hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBt) (13.96 g, 0.091 mol, 1.1 equiv.), and l-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide HC1 (EDC.HC1) (17.48 g, 0.091 mol, 1.1 equiv.). The flask was cooled in an ice bath, and was charged with N,N- dimethylacetamide (DMAc, 80 mL). The reaction was allowed to cool to ca. 10 °C with stirring. N-methylmorpholine (NMM) (27.34 mL, 0.249 mol, 3 equiv.) was added over 5 minutes keeping the internal temperature below 20 °C. The reaction was stirred at rt for 20 h. Upon reaction completion, the reaction mixture was added to MTBE (200 mL) and water (600 mL) in a separatory funnel and was gently shaken. The layers were allowed to separate, and the aqueous layer was removed. The aqueous layer was extracted twice with MTBE (50 mL), and the organic extracts were combined. The combined organic extracts were then extracted with water (500 mL), forming a mixture that did not separate well. The mixture was filtered over an appropriate solid support and the layers were separated. The organic phase was concentrated under vacuum, and the resulting residue was dissolved in diisopropyl ether (100 mL). The solution was cooled to ca. 5 °C with stirring. Acetic acid (5.22 mL, 0.091 mol, 1.1 equiv.) was added slowly keeping the internal temperature below 10 °C, and the resulting suspension was stirred 2 h at 5 °C. The thick suspension was then filtered, and the solid was rinsed with diisopropyl ether (100 mL), followed by heptane (100 mL).

This patent, if granted, serves as a blocking patent preventing competitors from making the product. The claims are very broad, using a Markush structure of antiviral agents. As per the WIPO ISR, claims 1-19 are novel and inventive. However, according to the ISR, all remaining claims (claims 20 to 173), covering a large number of compounds, lack both novelty and inventive step, due to lack of support from the patent specification and in the light of prior art. Prosecution at the USPTO Three patents have been granted in the United States: US8088368B2, claiming the base compound by general structural formula; US8273341B2 (a division of US8088368B2), claiming a method of inhibiting HCV; and US8575118B2 (a continuation of US8273341B2 and a division of US8088368B2), claiming specific amide compounds not covered in the other two related patents. The examination report of US8088368B2 reveals that the application was allowed after the applicant cancelled and amended claims on Markush substuents. The examination report of US8273341B2 reveals that the application was allowed after the applicant amended a claim ‘A method of treating HCV’ to ‘A method of inhibiting HCV´. The examination report of US8575118B2 reveals that the application was allowed after the applicant cancelled claims already covered by the related patents, and limited claims to four specific compounds. Patent 1 has been filed in various jurisdictions: The patent has been granted by the ARIPO, in South Africa, and the United States. The patent (or a related patent) is pending in Argentina, Australia, Canada, China, as well as China, Hong Kong SAR, the EAPO, the EPO, Israel, India, Japan, New Zealand, Singapore, and Ukraine. Legal status is not available for Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico, Peru, Uruguay, and Viet Nam. 13 Litigation / Opposition on Patent 1 In December 2013, Gilead Sciences filed apatent infringement lawsuit against Abbott Laboratories and AbbVie Inc., in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware (case Number: 1:13cv02034). The case involves Gilead Sciences patents US8088368B2, US8273341B2, and US8575118B2.
PATENT 2 Patent application WO2013184698A1 is a product and process patent, claiming new crystalline solvate forms of ledipasvir useful for treating a subject suffering from HCV infection. The application also claims processes of manufacture of such amorphous and crystalline forms with specific X-ray diffraction peaks, and compositions and combinations comprising them. The application has just recently been published and no written opinion on patentability is available at this stage. As per the available information (details available in the Annex): The patent is pending at the EPO and the United States. There are no litigation or opposition procedures reported.
PATENT 3 Patent application WO2013184702A1 is a process patent, claiming processes for the preparation of ledipasvir. The disclosure also provides compounds that are synthetic intermediates to compounds of ledipasvir. The claims are moderately narrow covering crystalline and amorphous forms of ledipasvir with specific X-ray diffraction peaks. The application has just recently been published and no written opinion on patentability is available at this stage. As per the available information (details available in the Annex): The patent is pending at the EPO and the United States. There are no litigation or opposition procedures reported.
PATENT 4 Patent application WO2012087596A1 is a formulation patent, claiming various formulations comprising a combination of ledipasvir with GS-9256, or tegobuvir or with other compounds. The application also claims methods of treatment with the said combinations for reducing viral load in a person infected with HCV. 14 As per the WIPO ISR, the application is novel but not inventive in comparison to the closest prior art retrieved during the search. The combinations claimed in the instant application are not disclosed in the prior art, thus the combinations are novel. However, the prior art discloses various combinations, therefore, the problem to be solved through the invention should be new combinations with fewer side effects. Further, no experimental data of synergism has been provided to support double, triple, or quadruple combinations. Thus, according to the ISR, the instant invention cannot be regarded as inventive. As per the available information (details available in the Annex): The patent has been granted in Argentina. The patent is pending in Australia, Canada, the EPO, and the United States. Legal status is not available for Japan and Uruguay. There are no litigation or opposition procedures reported.
PATENT 5 Patent application WO2013040492A2 is a formulation and method of use patent, claiming compositions and a method of using the combination for the treatment of HCV. Drug combinations are used, and the compositions include sofosbuvir, PSI-7851 and ledipasvir. Since the application claims a group of compounds of Markush structure, it gives the claims a broad scope. As per the WIPO ISR the application is novel but lacks the inventive step in light of prior art. The invention lacks an inventive step as it would be obvious to a person skilled in the art to combine the diastereoisomer of the present invention, disclosed in the prior art, with other antiviral agents to provide an alternative HCV therapy. As per the available information (details available in the Annex): The patent is pending in Australia, Canada, the EPO, and the United States. There are no litigation or opposition procedures reported. This patent is listed in the sofosbuvir report as Patent No. 7

SUMMARY The search revealed patents filed with respect to ledipasvir by the Sponsor as well as a nonSponsor. The ledipasvir Sponsor patent collection comprises 5 different patents (patent families) with 47 family members published in 23 jurisdictions. The majority of these patent applications are still pending in the respective patent offices (see Patents 1 to 5 in the Annex). Patent 1 is the primary patent, claiming the base compound through a Markush claim, along with various substituents. Where granted, this patent can prevent competitors from making ledipasvir. Patents 2 and 3 claim processes to make ledipasvir and thus if granted will require competitors to design around these patents and use other production processes. The chemical product itself is not protected. Patents 4 and 5 claim combinations of different HCV drugs with ledipasvir, and their formulations. There is competition in the field by AbbVie, Inc., which filed formulation patents. Note: The search also revealed two patents that are relevant for all seven reports. Patent applications WO2013059630A1 and WO2013059638A1 inter alia claim the use of combinations of unnamed direct-acting antiviral agents for treating HCV, where the treatment does not include administration of interferon or ribavirin, and the treatment lasts between 8-12 weeks. The description and the dataset for these two patents can be found in the Working Paper on ombitasvir (Patents No 3 and 4). These patents are in litigation. Detailed information can be found in the Working Paper on sofosbuvir under Patent No 2.

LEDIPASVIR
Biological Activity of Ledipasvir
Ledipasvir(GS5885) is an inhibitor of the hepatitis C virus NS5A protein. Ledipasvir is an experimental drug for the treatment of hepatitis C.
IC50 Value: 141 nM (EC50, JFH1/3a-NS5A hybrid replicon) [1]
Target: HCV NS5A
in vitro: Against JFH1/3a-NS5A, DCV was more potent (EC(50) = 0.52 nM) than GS-5885 (EC(50) = 141 nM). DCV sensitivity was increased against JFH1/3a-NS5A-M28V (EC50 = 0.006 nM), A30V (EC(50) = 0.012 nM), and E92A (EC(50) = 0.004 nM) while the NS5A-A30K and -Y93H variants exhibited reduced sensitivity to DCV (EC50 values of 23 nM and 1120 nM, respectively) and to GS-5885 (EC50 values of 1770 nM and 4300 nM, respectively) [1].
in vivo: GS-5885 was well tolerated and resulted in median maximal reductions in HCV RNA ranging from 2.3 log(10) IU/ml (1 mg QD) to 3.3 log(10) IU/ml (10 mg QD in genotype 1b and 30 mg QD). E(max) modeling indicated GS-5885 30 mg was associated with>95% of maximal antiviral response to HCV genotype 1a. HCV RNA reductions were generally more sustained among patients with genotype 1b vs. 1a. Three of 60 patients had a reduced response and harbored NS5A-resistant virus at baseline. NS5A sequencing identified residues 30 and 31 in genotype 1a, and 93 in genotype 1b as the predominant sites of mutation following GS-5885 dosing. Plasma pharmacokinetics was consistent with QD dosing [2].

Drug information:- Darunavir is an Anti-microbial drug further classified as anti-viral agent of the class protease inhibitor. It is used either single or in combination with other drugs for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus.
Darunavir (brand name Prezista, formerly known as TMC114) is a drug used to treat HIV infection. It is in the protease inhibitor class. Prezista is an OARAC recommended treatment option for treatment-naïve and treatment-experienced adults and adolescents.Developed by pharmaceutical company Tibotec, darunavir is named after Arun K. Ghosh, the chemist who discovered the molecule at the University of Illinois at Chicago. It was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on June 23, 2006.[2]
Darunavir is a second-generation protease inhibitor (PIs), designed specifically to overcome problems with the older agents in this class, such as indinavir. Early PIs often have severe side effects and drug toxicities, require a high therapeutic dose, are costly to manufacture, and show a disturbing susceptibility to drug resistant mutations. Such mutations can develop in as little as a year of use, and effectively render the drugs useless.
Darunavir was designed to form robust interactions with the protease enzyme from many strains of HIV, including strains from treatment-experienced patients with multiple resistance mutations to PIs.
Darunavir received much attention at the time of its release, as it represents an important treatment option for patients with drug-resistant HIV. Patient advocacy groups pressured developer Tibotec not to follow the previous trend of releasing new drugs at prices higher than existing drugs in the same class. Darunavir was priced to match other common PIs already in use, such as the fixed-dose combination drug lopinavir/ritonavir.
PREZISTA (darunavir) is an inhibitor of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) protease.
PREZISTA (darunavir), in the form of darunavir ethanolate, has the following chemical name: [(1S,2R)-3-[[(4-aminophenyl)sulfonyl](2-methylpropyl)amino]-2-hydroxy-1-(phenylmethyl)propyl]-carbamic acid (3R,3aS,6aR)-hexahydrofuro[2,3-b]furan-3-yl ester monoethanolate. Its molecular formula is C27H37N3O7S • C2H5OH and its molecular weight is 593.73. Darunavir ethanolate has the following structural formula:

Virus-encoded proteases, which are essential for viral replication, are required for the processing of viral protein precursors. Interference with the processing of protein precursors inhibits the formation of infectious virions. Accordingly, inhibitors of viral proteases may be used to prevent or treat chronic and acute viral infections. Darunavir has HIV protease inhibitory activity and is particularly well suited for inhibiting HIV-I and HIV -2 viruses. Darunavir, chemically (1 S^R.S’R.S’aS.e’aRJ-fS’he ahydrofuro^.S-b ]furanyl-[3-( 4-aminobenzenesulfonyl)isobutylamino [- 1-benzyl-zhydroxypropyl]carbamate. Darunavir is represented by the following structure:
Darunavir and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts were disclosed in US 6248775 patent, wherein Darunavir is prepared by condensing 2R-hydroxy-3-[[(4-aminophenyl)sulfonyl](2- methylpropyl)amino]-1S(phenylmethyl)propylamine with hexahydro-furo[2,3-b]furan-3-ol in anhydrous acetonitrile in the presence of anhydrous pyridine and Ν,Ν’-disuccinimidyl carbonate at ambient temperature.

In the prior art process, compound of formula 4 condensed with (3/?, 3aS, 6aR)- hexahydrofuro[2,3-6]furan-3-ol in large excess of solvent or solvent mixture containing large excess of base or mixture of bases to get Darunavir. Further, the obtained products by the processes described in the prior art are not satisfactory, from purity point of view. We have repeated the Darunavir synthetic procedures as described in the prior art and found that relatively large amounts of impurities were obtained along with Darunavir (Table-1) which need repeated crystallizations in different solvents to get desired quality of the final product resulting in poor yields. Among other impurities, the carbonic acid [(1/?,2S)-1-{((4-amino-benzenesulfonyl)-isobutyl-amino)-methyl}-2-((3R,3aSI6aR)- hexahydro-furot2,3-/3]furan-3-yloxycarbonylamino)-3-phenyl-propylester (3R,3aS,6aR)- hexahydro-furo[2,3-ft]furan-3-yl ester (difuranyl impurity of formula 1) is identified.

Schematic Representation for Synthesis of Darunavir
Preparation of Darunavir is described in US patent 05,158,713, and also in WO9967417 and WO9967254. Accordingly, 2-vinyloxirane 1 on reacting with phenyl magnesium bromide in presence of tetrahydrofuran solvent and cuprous cyanide catalyst give 4-phenylbut-2-ene-1-ol 2. Oxidizing 2 with t-Butyl hydroperoxide in presence of titanium tetraisopropoxide and diethyl D-tartrate using dichloromethane as solvent give [(3S)-3-benzyloxiran-2-yl]methanol 3.
Heating 3 with azidotrimethylsilane in presence of titanium tetraisopropoxide using benzene as solvent give (2S,3S)-3-azido-4-phenyl-butane-1,2-diol 4. The 1,2-dipl compound 4 underwent cyclization when treated with 2-acetoxyisobutyryl chloride in chloroform give (2S)-2-[(1S)-1-azido-2-phenyl-ethyl]oxirane 5, which was further heating with isobutylamine and isopropanol at higher temperature give (2R,3S)-3-azido-1-(isobutylamino)-4-phenyl-butan-2-ol 6. Compound 6 was reacted with 4-aminobenzenesulfonyl chloride in presence of aq. Sodium bicarbonate as base and dichloromethane as solvent resulting in to 4-amino-N-[(2R,3S)-3-azido-2-hydroxy-4-phenyl-butyl]-N-isobutyl-benzenesulfonamide 7.
Hydrogenating 7 with 10% palladium on carbon catalyst using hydrogen gas (50 psi) in methanol and tetrahydrofuran solvent in presence of small amount of acetic acid at ambient temperature resulted in to 4-amino-N-[(2R,3S)-3-amino-2-hydroxy-4-phenyl-butyl]-N-isobutyl-benzenesulfonamide 8. The final step involves reacting 8 with [3R,3aS,6aS]-3-hydroxyhexahydrofuro[2,3-b]-furan and disuccanamidyl carbonate in presence of triethylamine base and acetonitrile as solvent afford [(1S,2R)-3-[[(4-Aminophenyl)sulfonyl] (2-methylpropyl)amino]-2-hydroxy-1-(phenylmethyl)propyl]carbamic acid (3R,3aS,6aR)-hexahydrofuro[2,3-b]furan-3-yl ester also called Darunavir 9.

Zosuquidar is currently under development. It is now in “Phase 3” of clinical tests in the United States. Its action mechanism consists of the inhibition of P-glycoproteins; other drugs with this mechanism include tariquidar and laniquidar. P-glycoproteins are proteins which convert the energy derived from the hydrolysis of ATP to structural changes in protein molecules, in order to perform coupling, thus discharging medicine from cells. If P-glycoprotein coded with the MDR1 gene manifests itself in cancer cells, it discharges much of the antineoplastic drugs from the cells, making cancer cells medicine tolerant, and rendering antineoplastic drugs ineffective. This protein also manifests itself in normal organs not affected by the cancer (such as the liver, small intestine, and skin cells in blood vessels of the brain), and participates in the transportation of medicine. The compound Zosuquidar inhibits this P-glycoprotein, causing the cancer cells to lose their medicine tolerance, and making antineoplastic drugs effective
Clinicial trials: Clinical report published in 2010 showed that zosuquidar did not improve outcome in older acute myeloid leukemia, in part, because of the presence P-gp independent mechanisms of resistance. (Blood. 2010 Nov 18;116(20):4077-85.)
Zosuquidar is a potent P-glycoprotein inhibitor, which binds with high affinity to P-glycoprotein and inhibits P-glycoprotein-mediated multidrug resistance (MDR). P-glycoprotein, encoded by the MDR-1 gene, is a member of the ATP-binding cassette superfamily of transmembrane transporters and prevents the intracellular accumulation of many natural product-derived cytotoxic agents
Zosuquidar
U.S. Patent No. 5,112,817 to Fukazawa et al. discloses certain quinoline derivatives useful as anticancer drug potentiators for the treatment of multidrug resistance. One of the initially promising active agents there-disclosed is MS-073, which has the following structure:
MS-073
U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,643,909 and 5,654,304 disclose a series of 10,11- methanobenzosuberane derivatives useful in enhancing the efficacy of existing cancer chemotherapeutics and for treating multidrug resistance. One such derivative having good activity, oral bioavailability, and stability, is zosuquidar, a compound of formula (2R)-anti-5-
3 – [4-( 10, 11 -difluoromethanodibenzosuber-5-yl)piperazin- 1 -yl]-2-hydroxypropoxy) quinoline.
Zosuquidar
Given the limitations of previous generations of MDR modulators, three preclinical critical success factors were identified and met for zosuquidar: 1) it is a potent inhibitor of P-glycoprotein; 2) it is selective for P-glycoprotein; and 3) no pharmacokinetic interaction with co-administered chemotherapy is observed.
Zosuquidar is extremely potent in vitro (Kj = 59 nM) and is among the most active modulators of P-gp-associated resistance described to date. Zosuquidar has also demonstrated good in vivo activity in preclinical animal studies. In addition, the compound does not appear to be a substrate for P-gp efflux, resulting in a relatively long duration of reversal activity in resistant cells even after the modulator has been withdrawn.
Another significant attribute of zosuquidar as an MDR modulator is the minimal pharmacokinetic (PK) interactions with several oncolytics tested in preclinical models. Such minimal PK interaction permits normal doses of oncolytics to be administered and also a more straightforward interpretation of the clinical results.
Zosuquidar is generally administered in the form of the trihydrochloride salt. Conventional zosuquidar trihydrochloride formulations include those containing zosuquidar (50 mg as free base), glycine (15 mg), and mannitol (200 mg) dissolved in enough water for injection, to yield a free base concentration of 5 mg/mL. The formulation is filled into vials and lyophilized to give a vial containing 50 mg of free base. For such formulations, a 30 mL vial size is necessary to contain 50 mg of thezosuquidar formulation. For a typical >200 mg dose of zosuquidar, multiple 50 mg vials are needed to contain the formulation, greatly increasing manufacturing costs and reducing convenience for the end user {e.g., a pharmacist). Modified Cyclodextrins
Cyclodextrins are cyclic oligomers of glucose; these compounds form inclusion complexes with any drug whose molecule can fit into the lipophile-seeking cavities of the cyclodextrin molecule. See U.S. Pat. No. 4,727,064 for a description of various cyclodextrin derivatives. Cyclodextrins of preferred embodiments can include α-, β-, and χ-cyclodextrins. The α-cyclodextrins include six glucopyranose units, the β- cyclodextrins include seven glucopyranose units, and the χ-cyclodextrins include eight glucopyranose units. The β -cyclodextrins are generally preferred as having a suitable cavity size for zosuquidar. Cyclodextrin can be in any suitable form, including amorphous and crystalline forms, with the amorphous form generally preferred. Cyclodextrins suitable for use in the formulations of preferred embodiments include the hydroxypropyl, hydroxyethyl, glucosyl, maltosyl, and maltotrosyl derivatives of β- cyclodextrin, carboxyamidomethyl-β-cyclodextrin, carboxymethyl-β-cyclodextrin, and diethylamino-β-cyclodextrin.
Pharmaceutical complexes including various cyclodextrins and cyclodextrin derivatives are disclosed in the following United States patents: U.S. Pat. No. 4,024,223; U.S. Pat. No. 4,228,160; U.S. Pat. No. 4,232,009; U.S. Pat. No. 4,351,846; U.S. Pat. No. 4,352,793; U.S. Pat. No. 4,383,992; U.S. Pat. No. 4,407,795; U.S. Pat. No. 4,424,209; U.S. Pat. No. 4,425,336; U.S. Pat. No. 4,438,106; U.S. Pat.

No. 4,565,807; U.S. Pat. No. 4,575,548; U.S. Pat. No. 4,598,070; U.S. Pat. No. 4,603,123; U.S. Pat. No. 4,608,366; U.S. Pat. No. 4,659,696; U.S. Pat. No. 4,623,641; U.S. Pat No. 4,663,316; U.S. Pat. No. 4,675,395; U.S. Pat. No. 4,728,509; U.S. Pat. No. 4,728,510; and U.S. Pat. No. 4,751,095.
Chemically modified and substituted α-, β-, and χ-cyclodextrins are generally preferred over unmodified α-, β-, and χ-cyclodextrins due to improved toxicity and solubility properties. The degree of substitution of the hydroxy 1 groups of the glucopyranose units of the cyclodextrin ring can affect solubility. In general, a higher average degree of substitution of substituent groups in the cyclodextrin molecule yields a cyclodextrin of higher solubility.
Examples for Pgp inhibitors are cyclosporine A, valpodar, elacridar, tariquidar, zosuquidar, laniquidar, biricodar, S-9788, MS-209, BIBW-22 (BIBW-22-BS) , toremifene, verapamil, dexverapamil , quinine, quinidine, trans- flupentixol, chinchonine and others (J. Roberts, C. Jarry (2003) : J. Med. Chem. 46, 4805 – 4817) . The list of inhibitors of P-glycoprotein is increasing (e.g. Wang et al . (2002) : Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett. 12, 571 – 574) .

U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,643,909 and 5,654,304, incorporated herein by reference, disclose a series of 10,11-methanobenzosuberane derivatives useful in enhancing the efficacy of existing cancer chemotherapeutics and for treating multidrug resistance.

U.S. pat. No. 5,654,304 (‘304), incorporated by reference herein, discloses a series of 10,11-(optionally substituted)methanodibenzosuberane derivatives useful in enhancing, the efficacy of existing cancer chemotherapeutics and for treating multidrug resistance. (2R)-anti-5-{3-[4-(10,11-Difluoromethanodibenzosuber-5-yl)piperazin-1-yl]-2-hydroxypropoxy}quinolone trihydrochloride is disclosed in ‘304 and is currently under development as a pharmaceutical agent. WO00/75121 discloses Form I, a crystalline form of (2R)-anti-5-{3-[4-(10,11-difluoromethanodibenzosuber-5-yl)piperazin-1-yl]-2-hydroxypropoxy}quinolone trihydrochloride.
The art disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,776,939, and U.S. Pat. No. 5,643,909 both incorporated herein by reference, and PCT Patent Applications (Publication numbers WO 94/24107 and 98/22112) teach the use of 1-formylpiperazine to introduce the piperazine group of the compound of formula II
Compound II is a mixture of syn isomer (III)
and anti isomer (IV)
The process as disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,643,909 and 5,654,304 (represented by scheme A, below) involves (a) chromatographic separation(s) of the formyl piperazine compound; and (b) deformylation of the formyl piperazine compound to provide compound IV.https://www.google.co.in/patents/US6570016?cl=en
The process of the present invention uses piperazine to react with the (1aα,6α,10bα)-6-halo-1,1-difluoro-1,1a,6,10b-tetrahydrodibenzo[a,e]cyclopropa[c]-cycloheptene compound or derivative, instead of formylpiperazine.
The process of the present invention is advantageous because piperazine is readily available in commercial quantities whereas 1-formylpiperazine, which was utilized in the process disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,643,909 is often not readily available in commercial quantities. Additionally piperazine enjoys a significant cost advantage over 1-formylpiperazine.
The use of piperazine instead of 1-formylpiperazine is a significant advancement over the prior art because it obviates the need to deformylate or hydrolyze off the formyl group (step 6, scheme A), thereby providing fewer operational steps. U.S. Pat. No. 5,643,909 teaches the separation of the 1-formylpiperazine compounds by chromatography or repeated crystallization. The present invention obviates the need for chromatographic separations of the formylpiperazine diastereomeric addition compounds (see step 4, scheme A)


EXAMPLES
The following examples and preparations are illustrative only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way.
Preparation 1 R-1-(5-Quinolinyloxy)-2,3-epoxypropane
A mixture of 5-hydroxyquinoline (5.60 g, 38.6 mmol), R-glycidyl nosylate (10.0 g, 38.6 mmol), powdered potassium carbonate (11.7 g, 84.9 mmol), and N,N-dimethylformamide (100 mL) was stirred at ambient temperature until HPLC analysis (40% acetonitrile/60% of a 0.5% aqueous ammonium acetate solution, 1 mL/min, wavelength=230 nm, Zorbax RX-C8 25 cm×4.6 mm column) indicated complete disappearance of glycidyl nosylate (approximately 6 hours). The reaction mixture was filtered through paper and the filter cake was washed with 200 mL of a 3:1 mixture of MTBE and methylene chloride. The filtrate was washed with 200 mL of water and the aqueous layer was extracted four times with 100 mL of 3:1 MTBE/methylene chloride. The combined organic layers were dried over 30 grams of magnesium sulfate and the dried solution was then stirred with 50 grams of basic alumina for 30 minutes. The alumina was removed by filtration and the filter cake was washed with 200 mL of 3:1 MTBE/methylene chloride. The filtrate was concentrated to a volume of 100 mL, 300 mL of MTBE were added, and the solution was again concentrated to 80 mL. After heating to 50° C., the solution was treated with 160 mL of heptane dropwise over 15 minutes, allowed to cool to 40° C., and seeded, causing the formation of a crystalline precipitate. The mixture was stirred for two hours at ambient temperature and then at 0-5° C. for an additional 2 hours. The crystals were filtered, washed with cold heptane, and dried to provide 5.68 g (73.2%) of (2R)-1-(5-quinolinyloxy)-2,3-epoxypropane as white needles.

Preparation of the above compound is exemplified in the following preparative steps.
Step 1 1,1-Difluoro-1a,10b-dihydrodibenzo[a,e]cyclopropa[c]-cyclohepten-6 (1H)-one
A solution of sodium chlorodifluoroacetate (350 g) in diglyme (1400 mL) was added dropwise over 4 to 8 hours, preferably over 6 hours, to a solution of 5H-dibenzo[a,d]cyclo-hepten-5-one (25 g) in diglyme (500 mL), with stirring, and under nitrogen, maintaining the reaction temperature at 160°-165° C. The cooled reaction mixture was poured into water (1.8 L) and extracted with ether (1.8 L). The organic phase was washed with water, dried over sodium sulfate (Na2SO4), and evaporated. The residue was recrystallized from ethanol, then from acetone/hexane to give 14 g of 1,1-difluoro-1a,10b-dihydrodibenzo[a,e]cyclopropa[c]-cyclohepten-6(1H)-one.

A solution of 1,1-difluoro-1a,10b-dihydro-dibenzo[a,e]cyclopropa[c]cyclohepten-6(1H)-one (20.4 g) in tetrahydrofuran/methanol (1:2, 900 mL) was cooled in an ice bath. Sodium borohydride (12 g) was added in portions. The cooling bath was removed and the reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 2 hours, then poured into water. The product was filtered off, washed with water, and dried to give 20 g of (1aα,6β,10bα)-1,1-difluoro-1,1a,6,10b-tetrahydrodibenzo[a,e]cyclopropa[c]cyclohepten-6-ol (ii).
mp 230.1°-230.6° C.
Step 2A Combined Steps 1 and 2 Procedure (1aα,6β,10bα)-1,1-Difluoro-1,1a,6,10b-tetrahydrodibenzo[a,e]cyclopropa[c]cyclohepten-6-ol
To a solution of 103.1 g (0.500 mol) of 5H-dibenzo[a,d]cyclohepten-5-one (2) in 515 mL of triethylene glycol dimethyl ether heated to between 180° C. and 210° C. was added over 7 hours, 293.3 g (2.15 mol) of chlorodifluoroacetic acid lithium salt (as a 53% by weight solution in ethylene glycol dimethyl ether). The ethylene glycol dimethyl ether was allowed to distill from the reaction as the salt addition proceeded. The GC analysis of an aliquot indicated that all of the 5H-dibenzo[a,d]cyclohepten-5-one had been consumed. The reaction was cooled to ambient temperature and then combined with 400 mL of ethyl acetate and 75 g of diatomaceous earth. The solids were removed by filtration and washed with 300 mL of ethyl acetate. The washes and filtrate were combined and the ethyl acetate was removed by concentration under vacuum leaving 635 g of dark liquid. The dark liquid was cooled to 18° C. and to this was added, over 15 minutes, 6.62 g (0.175 mol) of sodium borohydride (as a 12% by wt solution in 14 M NaOH). After stirring for 2 h the reaction was quenched by careful addition of 900 mL of a 1:3.5:4.5 solution of conc. HCl-methanol-water. The suspension was stirred for 30 min and the crude product was collected by filtration, washed with 600 mL of 1:1 methanol-water and dried to 126.4 g of dark brown solid. The crude product was slurried in 600 mL of methylene chloride, filtered, washed twice with 150 mL portions of methylene chloride, and dried to 91.6 g (71%) of (1aα,6β,10bα)-1,1-difluoro-1,1a,6,10b-tetrahydrodibenzo[a,e]cyclopropa[c]-cyclohepten-6-ol.

Solvent was then removed by atmospheric distillation (bp 95-98° C.) until approximately 9 mL of distillate was collected. The reaction was cooled and treated with EtOAc (15 mL), Na2SO4 and activated charcoal. The mixture was stirred at RT for 15 min and filtered through hyflo. The filter cake was washed with 50:50 EtOAc:heptane and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to provide the title product as a crystalline solid.

To a stirred suspension of (1aα,6β,10bα)-1,1-difluoro-1,1a,6,10b-tetrahydrodibenzo[a,e]cyclopropa[c]-cyclohepten-6-ol, (18.4 g, 71.2 mmol) in 151 mL of methylene chloride which had been cooled to 10-17° C. was added phosphorous tribromide (9.6 g, 35.6 mmol) dropwise over 15 minutes. The cooling bath was removed and the reaction was stirred for 2 hours at ambient temperature. Analysis by gas chromatography indicated complete consumption of starting material. Cold water (92 mL) and activated carbon (1.84 g) were added and the resulting mixture was stirred for 30 minutes. The activated carbon was removed by filtration through Hyflo brand filter aid and the two phases were separated. The organic phase was washed with water (184 mL×2), brine (184 ml), dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated to dryness under vacuum, affording 21.7 g (94.8%) of (1aα,6α,10bα)-6-bromo-1,1-difluoro-1,1a,6,10b-tetrahydrodibenzo[a,e]cyclopropa[c]cycloheptene.

To a solution of 237.5 g (0.739 mol) of (1aα,6α,10bα)-6-bromo-1,1-difluoro-1,1a,6,10b-tetrahydrodibenzo[a,e]-cyclopropa[c]cycloheptene in 3.56 L of acetonitrile was added 207.7 g (2.41 mol) of piperazine and the mixture was heated to reflux for 2 hours, at which time analysis by gas chromatography showed complete consumption of (1aα,6α,10bα)-6-bromo-1,1-difluoro-1,1a,6,10b-tetrahydrodibenzo[a,e]cyclopropa[c]cycloheptene (iii) and formation of a mixture of syn and anti piperazine compounds (III and IV) in an anti-syn ratio of 55:45. The reaction was cooled to about 7° C. and stirred for 30 minutes at that temperature. The reaction mixture was filtered to remove the precipitated syn-isomer (III) and the filter cake was washed with 250 mL of acetonitrile. The combined filtrate and wash were concentrated under vacuum to 262.4 grams of a foam which was dissolved in 450 mL of acetonitrile with heating. The solution was cooled to about 12° C. in an ice bath and stirred for 1 hour at that temperature. The precipitated syn-piperazine compound of formula (III) was filtered and washed with 125 ml of acetonitrile. The combined filtrate and wash were concentrated under vacuum to 194.1 g and dissolved in 1.19 L of ethyl acetate. The organic solution was washed sequentially with 500 mL portions of 1N sodium hydroxide, water, and saturated sodium chloride. The ethyl acetate solution was dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated to give 137.0 grams of residue which was dissolved in 1.37 L of methylene chloride and seeded with (1aα,6α,10bα)-1-(1,1-difluoro-1,1a,6,10b-tetrahydrodibenzo[a,e]cyclopropa[c]-cyclohepten-6-yl)-piperazine, hydrobromide salt, followed by the addition of 70.8 grams of 48% aqueous hydrobromic acid. The mixture was stirred for about 45 minutes, causing the anti-isomer to crystallize as its hydrobromide salt. The crystals were filtered, washed with methylene chloride, and dried to provide purified hydrobromide salt of compound (IVa), shown by HPLC to have an anti-syn ratio of 99.3:0.7. Treatment of the isolated hydrobromide salt of compound (IVa) with aqueous sodium hydroxide, extraction into methylene chloride, separation of the aqueous layer and concentration to dryness gave 80.1 grams (33.2% yield based on starting material) of (1aα,6α,10bα)-1-(1,1-difluoro-1,1a,6,10b-tetrahydrodibenzo[a,e]cyclopropa[c]-cyclohepten-6-yl)-piperazine as the free base. Acidification of a solution of the free base in 800 mL of methylene chloride by addition of 41.2 g of 48% hydrobromic acid as described above afforded 96.4 g of pure hydrobromide salt (title compound) with an anti-syn ratio of 99.8:0.2 (HPLC), mp 282-284° C. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ 2.41 (m, 4H), 3.11 (m, 4H), 3.48 (d, J=12.4 Hz, 2H), 4.13 (s, 1H), 7.2 (m, 8H), 8.65 (bs, 2H). 13C NMR (DMSO-d6) δ 28.0, 42.9, 48.0, 75.1, 108.5, 112.9, 117.3, 127.5, 128.0, 128.6, 129.6, 132.4, 141.3.

R-1-(5-quinolinyloxy)-2,3-epoxypropane (3.00 g, 14.9 mmol) was added in one portion and the reaction mixture was heated to 65° C. for 19 hours. HPLC analysis (Gradient system with solvent A (acetonitrile) and solvent B (0.02M sodium monophosphate buffer containing 0.1% triethylamine adjusted to pH 3.5 with phosphoric acid) as follows: 0-12 min, 30% solvent A/70% solvent B; 12-30 min, linear gradient from 30% to 55% solvent A/70% to 45% solvent B; 30-35 min, 55% solvent A/45% solvent B, 1 mL/min, 1=240 nm, Synchropak SCD-100 25 cm×4.6 mm column) indicated the total consumption of the piperazinyl compound of formula (IV). The mixture was allowed to cool to room temperature, filtered through a plug of silica gel, and eluted with an additional 90 mL of ethanol. The eluent was concentrated to a volume of approximately 60 mL and heated to 65° C. with stirring. A solution of HCl in ethanol (16.1 g at 0.135 g/g of solution, 59.6 mmol) was added dropwise over 10 minutes and the resultant product solution was seeded, causing the trihydrochloride salt to precipitate. The mixture was allowed to cool to ambient temperature and stirred slowly (less than 100 RPM) for 2 hours. The precipitate was filtered, washed with ethanol, and dried in vacuo at 50° C. to give the crude trihydrochloride salt which was further purified by recrystallization from methanol/ethyl acetate to provide 7.45 g (78.4%) of (2R)-anti-1-[4-(10,11-difluoromethano-10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d]cyclohepten-5-yl)-piperazin-1-yl]-3-quinolin-5-yloxy)-propan-2-ol trihydrochloride.
