Lapatinib (INN), used in the form of lapatinib ditosylate, (USAN) (Tykerb/Tyverb, GSK) is an orally active drug for breast cancerand other solid tumours.^[1] It is a dual tyrosine kinase inhibitor which interrupts the HER2/neu and epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR) pathways.^[2] It is used in combination therapy for HER2-positive breast cancer. It is used for the treatment of patients with advanced or metastatic breast cancer whose tumors overexpress HER2 (ErbB2).^[3]

Status

On March 13, 2007, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved lapatinib in combination therapy for breast cancer patients already using capecitabine (Xeloda, Roche).^[2]^[3] In January 2010, Tykerb received accelerated approval for the treatment of postmenopausal women with hormone receptor positive metastatic breast cancer that overexpresses the HER2 receptor and for whom hormonal therapy is indicated.^[3]

Pharmaceutical company GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) markets the drug under the propriety names Tykerb (mostly US) and Tyverb (mostly Europe).^[4] The drug currently has approval for sale and clinical use in the US,^[2]^[4] Australia,^[2] Bahrain,^[2] Kuwait,^[2] Venezuela,^[2]Brazil,^[5] New Zealand,^[5]^[6] South Korea,^[5] Switzerland,^[4] Japan, Jordan, the European Union, Lebanon, India and Pakistan.^[4]

On the 2nd of August 2013, India’s Intellectual Property Appellate Board revoked the patent for Glaxo’s Tykerb citing its derivative status, while upholding at the same time the original patent granted for Lapatinib.^[7]

The drug lapatinib ditosylate is classified as S/NM (a synthetic compound showing competitive inhibition of the natural product) that is naturally derived or inspired substrate (Gordon M. Cragg, Paul G. Grothaus, and David J. Newman, Impact of Natural Products on Developing New Anti-Cancer Agents, Chem. Rev. 2009, 109, 3012–3043)

Lapatinib ditosylate, an ErB-1 and ErB-2 dual kinase inhibitor, was launched in the U.S. in 2007 for the treatment of advanced or metastatic HER2 (ErbB2) positive breast cancer in women who have received prior therapy, including Herceptin(R) (trastuzumab), in combination with Xeloda(R) (capecitabine). The compound was approved in 2007 in Switzerland and Australia and in 2009 in Canada, for this indication. Regulatory approval has also been obtained in Japan. In December 2007, a positive opinion was received in the E.U. In 2008, the CHMP issued a revised positive opinion confirming the positive benefit-risk profile for lapatinib following review by the CHMP of new data received in February 2008 from GlaxoSmithKline arising from a standard pharmacovigilance evaluation of clinical trial and post-marketing data. The CHMP confirmed that these data do not essentially change the positive benefit-risk profile for lapatinib in its proposed indication. In 2008, the MAA was approved in the E.U. and the product was subsequently commercialized in Germany. In 2009, regulatory applications were filed in the U.S. and the E.U. seeking approval for use of lapatinib as first-line treatment of patients with hormone-sensitive, metastatic (or advanced) breast cancer in combination with anti-hormonal therapy. In 2010, lapatinib was launched on the U.S. market as first-line treatment in combination with Femara(R) to treat hormone positive and HER2-positive advanced breast cancer in postmenopausal women for whom hormonal therapy is indicated. In 2010, the compound was approved and launched in the E.U. for the oral treatment of post-menopausal women with hormone receptor-positive, HER2 (ErbB2) over-expressing metastatic breast cancer and for whom chemotherapy is currently not intended, in combination with an aromatase inhibitor. In 2012, GlaxoSmithKline filed regulatory applications in the U.S. and the E.U. for the oral treatment of patients with HER2 (ErbB2)-positive metastatic breast cancer that has progressed on prior trastuzumab regimens, in combination with trastuzumab. In July 2012, GlaxoSmithKline withdrew this application in the U.S. In 2013, the product was approved for this indication in the E.U.

In terms of clinical development, the National Cancer Institute (US) is currently conducting phase II/III trials for the treatment of bladder cancer. Phase III trials are under way to evaluate the use of lapatinib as first-line treatment of breast cancer. The compound is also being evaluated for several oncologic indications in the treatment of brain, gallbladder, prostate, ovary, endometrium, bladder cancer, cervical and hepatobiliary cancers in collaboration with the National Cancer Institute (NCI). Lapatinib in combination with everolimus is also in early clinical studies for the treatment of lymphoma and non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL). A phase II combination trial is evaluating lapatinib for the treatment of advanced or metastatic colorectal cancer. The National Cancer Institute (NCI) is developing the compound in phase II trials for the treatment of peritoneal cancer, ovarian and ductal carcinoma in situ of the breast (DCIS), while Brown University is conducting combination trials with gemcitabine for the treatment of pancreas metastatic cancer, and Cedars-Sinai Medical Center is conducting phase II clinical trials for treatment for pituitary cancer. Phase III clinical study for the treatment of head and neck was terminated because the study didn´t meet primary endpoint.

Lapatinib was granted fast-track status by the FDA in 2005 for the treatment of refractory advanced or metastatic breast cancer patients who have documented ErbB-2 overexpression and who have failed previous therapy. In 2009, Orphan Drug Designation was received in the U.S. by GlaxoSmithKline for the treatment of ErbB2 positive gastric cancer and for the treatment of ErbB2 positive esophageal cancer.

Breast cancer

Lapatinib is used as a treatment for women’s breast cancer in treatment naive, ER+/EGFR+/HER2+ breast cancer patients(now often called “triple positive”) and in patients who have HER2-positive advanced breast cancer that has progressed after previous treatment with other chemotherapeutic agents, such as anthracycline, taxane-derived drugs, or trastuzumab (Herceptin, Genentech).

A 2006 GSK-supported randomized clinical trial on female breast cancer previously being treated with those agents (anthracycline, a taxane and trastuzumab) demonstrated that administrating lapatinib in combination with capecitabine delayed the time of further cancer growth compared to regimens that use capecitabine alone. The study also reported that risk of disease progression was reduced by 51%, and that the combination therapy was not associated with increases in toxic side effects.^[11] The outcome of this study resulted in a somewhat complex and rather specific initial indication for lapatinib—use only in combination with capecitabine for HER2-positive breast cancer in women whose cancer have progressed following previous chemotherapy with anthracycline, taxanes and trastuzumab.

Lapatinib has the structural formula (I) and chemical name N-[3- chloro-4-[(3-fluorophenyl)methoxy]phenyl]-6-[5-[(2-methylsulfonylethylamino)methyl]-2- furyl] quinazolin-4-amine.

BACKGROUND ART

Lapatinib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor that is used as an orally administered drug as its ditosylate salt to treat certain types of advanced or metastatic breast cancer and other solid tumors. Lapatinib ditosylate was approved by the FDA in 2007 and the EMEA in 2008 and is marketed by GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) under the trade name of Tykerb^® in the USA and Tyverb^® in Europe.

Lapatinib substance is claimed in US 6,713,485 B2 and US 6,727,256 Bl and lapatinib ditosylate and its crystalline forms are claimed in US 7,157,466 B2. A synthesis of lapatinib that utilises a palladium mediated coupling of a substituted 4-anilino-6-iodo-quinazoline (II) with a 2- (tributylstannyl)furan (Ilia) is disclosed in US 6,727,256 Bl and is also presented in US 7,157,466 B2. In US 7,157,466 B2 a second generation approach was disclosed that utilises a palladium catalysed coupling of a substituted 4-anilino-6-iodo-quinazoline (II) with furan-2-yl-boronic acids (Illb). Following the palladium catalysed coupling reactions utilised in the two synthetic methods of US 6,727,256 Bl and US 7,157,466 B2, only one (US 7,157,466 B2) or two (US 6,727,256 Bl and US 7,157,466 B2) synthetic modification of the structure are utilised before the lapatinib substance is provided (Scheme 1). The EMEA’s COMMITTEE FOR MEDICINAL PRODUCTS FOR HUMAN USE (CHMP) has published guidelines titled GUIDELINE ON THE SPECIFICATION LIMITS FOR RESIDUES OF METAL CATALYSTS OR METAL REAGENTS and recommendations are presented for oral exposure to metals, including palladium. For a drug being consumed in quantities not exceeding a 10 g daily dose, a limit of 10 ppm (parts per million) concentration of palladium in the drug substance is recommended. Given this, there is still an unmet need for an alternative synthetic method that can be used for preparation of lapatinib in which the palladium mediated coupling step is performed early in the synthetic route, thereby being capable to provide .

Scheme 1

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

There are a number of ways that the levels of a metal, such as palladium, can be controlled in a drug substance through purging of the metal by treatment of the drug substance or its synthetic intermediates or both, including crystallisation, aqueous extraction, filtration through metal absorbent filter aids (Organic Process Research & Development 2005, 9, 198-205), precipitation of the metal from solution, chromatography, and treatment with metal scavenging reagents (Organic Process Research & Development 2003, 7, 733-742). By placing the palladium mediated coupling step downstream in the synthetic route, however, to take advantage of synthetic convergence, the opportunity to reduce the level of palladium in the drug substance is reduced. In contrast, however, by redesigning the synthetic route to move the palladium mediated coupling step upstream, further away from the drug substance, increases the opportunity to control the palladium level in the drug substance. Furthermore, by careful operational design (such as in a precipitation and crystallisation step), the palladium level in the intermediates can be consistently controlled. Given that there is a need, the present invention has addressed these two latter points and utilised them in a novel and efficient process for the manufacture of lapatinib and lapatinib ditosylate.

Scheme 2 – Synthesis of lapatinib and lapatinib ditosylate

In contrast to the prior art methods disclosure in US 6,727,256 Bl and US 7,157,466 B2, the present invention has performed a transition metal catalysed coupling reaction at the most upstream point in the synthetic route based on the utilization of commercially available starting materials SMla (6-iodoquinazolin-4(3H)-one) and SM2a (5-formylfuran-2-ylboronic acid), or their analogues SMI and SM2, to provide IM1. Thus, in one aspect of the present invention, lapatinib is made from a novel compound (IM1) (Scheme 2).

In another aspect of the present invention, a lapatinib ditosylate monohydrate is prepared by crystallizing lapatinib ditosylate in a mixture of water, DMSO and MeCN.

In another aspect of the present invention, novel compound IM1 is synthesized by the cross- coupling of commercially available SMla and SM2a, or their analogues SMI and SM2, in suitable solvents comprised of an organic solvent and water in the presence of a base and a catalyst formed from a transition metal and a ligand (scheme 3).

To a suspension of 2-(methylsulfonyl)ethanamine hydrochloride (SM4.HC1; 12.2 g, 76.7 mmol) in THF (600 mL) was added acetic acid (14.1 g, 235 mmol) followed by DIPEA (30.3 g, 235 mmol) were added. After stirred at ambient temperature for 0.5 h, ¾0 (4.2 g, 233 mmol) and IM3.HC1 (30.0 g, HPLC assay >99%, 58.7 mmol) were added. After being stirred at ambient temperature (20°C) for 4 h, sodium triacetoxyborohydride (37.4 g, 176 mmol) was added and the mixture was stirred at ambient temperature (20°C±5°C; external temperature) until HPLC showed the completion of the reaction. A 10% aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide (90 mL) was added and the mixture was stirred for 30 min. The organic phase was washed with 25% aqueous NH₄C1 (60 mL), filtered, treated with -TsOH (40.4 g, 135 mmol) and heated to reflux for 2 h.

GlaxoSmithKline’s lapatinib (3.38, Tykerb) is a novel dual kinase inhibitor used in the treatment of solid tumors such as those found in breast cancer and contains a quinazoline core structure. It consists of a 2,5-disubstituted furan ring, which is directly linked to the aminoquinazoline unit (Scheme 41). The quinazoline heterocycle was prepared starting from 5-iodoanthranilic acid (3.72) via initial condensation with formamidine acetate (3.73) followed by chlorination using oxalyl chloride or phosphorous oxychloride [101]. Performing a nucleophilic aromatic substitution on the chloride 3.74 with aniline 3.75renders the extended core of lapatinib. This intermediate (3.76) was then coupled with 5-formyl-2-furanoboronic acid (3.77) using standard Suzuki cross-coupling conditions. Finally, a reductive amination of the pendant aldehyde of3.78 with 2-(methylsulfonyl)ethylamine (3.79) furnishes the desired product lapatinib (Scheme 41).

Lapatinib of Formula-(II), was first disclosed by SmithKline Beecham in US Patent No. 6,727,256.

The process for the preparation of Lapatinib of Formula-(II), disclosed in W099/35146, is given in the Scheme-I. Accordingly, 4-chloro-6-iodo-quinazoline of Formula-(IV), is reacted with 3-chloro-4-(3′-fluoro-benzyloxy)-aniline yielding N-[3- chloro-4-{(3′-fluorobenzyloxy) phenyl} ]-6-iodo-quinazoline of Formula-( l). The compound of the Formula-(l) reacts with 5-(l,3-dioxolan-2-yl)-2-(tributylstannyl)furan to get the compound of Formula-(2) which on deprotection with HC1, removes the 1,3- dioxolan-2-yl protecting group and liberates 5-(4-{3-chloro-4-(3-fluoro- benzyloxy)anilino}-6- quinazolinyl)-furan-2-carbaldehyde of Formula-(3). The compound of the Formula-(3) on reaction with 2-methanesulfonylethylamine, followed by reductive amination using sodium (triacetoxy)borohydride as the reducing agent gives the required compound Lapatinib of Formula-(II) as an organic residue, which is purified by column chromatography and subsequently converted into its hydrochloride salt (5).

Subsequently, US 7, 157,466 also discloses the preparation of Lapatinib and its ditosylate salt, which is given in Scheme-II.

Lapatinib ditosylate has been prepared by reacting the tosylate salt of 5-(4-[3- chloro-4-(3-fluorobenzyloxy)-anilino]-6-quinazolinyl)-furan-2-carbaldehyde of Formula (3) with 2-(methylsulfonyl)ethylamine in the presence of base (diisopropyl- ethylamine) followed by reduction with sodium triacetoxyborohydride to obtain Lapatinib base which is converted to Lapatinib ditosylate anhydrate by adding para- toulenesulfonic acid. Conversion to Lapatinib ditosylate monohydrate is carried out using THF/H₂0. Intercon vers ion to the anhydrate of the ditosylate salt and back to monohydrate is carried out with methanol and water respectively.

(lla)

WO201 1039759, filed by Natco Pharma also describes a process for the preparation of Lapatinib from 2-amino benzonitrile, as given in scheme-Ill. Firstly, 2- aminobenzonitrile (6) is reacted with iodine monochloride in acetic acid medium to form compound of Formula (7) which is recrystallized from mixture of hexane and toluene. The compound of Formula (1) is reacted with N,N-dimethylformamide dimethy|acetal in an organic solvent such as toluene or xylene to form novel compound of Formula (8). The compound of Formula (7) is then coupled with compound of Formula (8) in presence of acid catalyst such as trifluoroacetic acid, formic acid or acetic acid to form compound of Formula (3). The compound of Formula (3) is the subjected to Suzuki coupling with 5-formyl-2-furyl boronic acid in ethereal solvent in the presence of catalyst selected from palladium (II) acetate, palladium (II) chloride, and palladium on carbon to form aldehyde compound of Formula (4). The compound of Formula (4) is reacted with 2-methanesulphonyl ethylamine or its salt to produce imine compound of Formula (VI) which is reduced with sodium borohydride to form Lapatinib base (II). The crude Lapatinib base is purified by crystallization from organic solvents. The purified Lapatinib base is converted into Lapatinib ditosylate anhydrous by treating Lapatinib base in organic solvent with /7-toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate which is then recrystallized from aqueous alcohol to produce pharmaceutically acceptable Lapatinib ditosylate monohydrate. The process is depicted in Scheme-Ill.

Lapatinib (II) WO2010017387, filed by Teva relates to Lapatinib intermediates and process for the preparation of Lapatinib base and Lapatinib ditosylate. The application relates to highly pure intermediate of Formula (2), 3-chloro-4-(3-fluorobenzyloxy)aniline which is prepared by reducing a compound of Formula (1), 3-chloro-4-(3- fluorobenzyloxy)nitrobenzene, with iron and ammonium chloride system in the presence of a C1 -C4 alcohol and water at refluxing temperature. The application also relates to highly pure intermediate of Formula (3), N-[3-chloro-4-(3-fluorobenzyloxy)- phenyl]-6-iodoquinazolin-4-amine, which is prepared in one-pot process from compound of Formula (1 ) by reduction using iron and ammonium chloride system in presence of C1 -C4 alcohol and water. The compound of Formula (3) is reacted with 5- formyl-2-furanboronic acid in the presence of a palladium catalyst and a base in a polar organic solvent to obtain Lapatinib aldehyde base, compound of Formula (4). Optionally, Lapatinib aldehyde base is combined with /? oluenesulfonic acid to obtain Lapatinib aldehyde monotosylate, compound of Formula (5). The invention further provides a process for the preparation of Lapatinib base. Lapatinib aldehyde base or its salt is combined with methylsulfonylethylamine or its hydrochloride salt, acetic acid, an inorganic base in an organic solvent and a reducing agent (sodium triacetoxyborohydride) to form Lapatinib base. Lapatinib base is further purified by using organic solvents. Lapatinib base obtained is further converted to Lapatinib ditosylate. The process is depicted in scheme-IV.

The free base and HCl salts of the compounds of Formulae (I), (II), (III), and (IV), may be prepared according to the procedures of International Patent Application No. PCT/EP99100048, filed Jan. 8, 1999, and published as WO 99/35146 on Jul. 15, 1999, referred to above. A schematic of such procedures is presented in Scheme A following. The specific page references given are to WO 99/35146. The free base of the compound of formula II is used as an example of the general scheme.

The compound of formula (II), i.e., N-{3-Chloro-4-[(3-fluorobenzyl) oxy]phenyl}-6-[5-({[2-(methanesulphonyl) ethyl]amino}methyl)-2-furyl]-4-quinazolinamine ditosylate has been prepared in two distinct forms, an anhydrate form (Formula II′ in Scheme B) and a monohydrate form (Formula II″ in Scheme B). The relationship of these forms is illustrated in Scheme B below. The anhydrate form of N-{3-Chloro-4-[(3-fluorobenzyl) oxy]phenyl}-6-[5-({[2-(methanesulphonyl)ethyl]amino}methyl)-2-furyl]-4-quinazolinamine ditosylate may be prepared by (a) reacting the tosylate salt of 5-(4-[3-chloro-4-(3-fluorobenzyloxy)-anilino]-6-quinazolinyl)-furan-2-carbaldehyde (formula B in Scheme B) with 2-(methylsulfone)ethylamine in tetrahydrofuran in the presence of diisopropyl-ethylamine followed by (b) the introduction of this solution into to a slurry of sodium triacetoxyborohydride in tetrahydrofuran at room temperature, (c) adding 5N sodium hydroxide to adjust the pH to within a range of 10–11, (d) separating the organic tetrahydrofuran phase, and then (e) adding para-toulenesulfonic acid hydrate to the organic phase to provide the ditosylate anhydrate. Interconversion to the monohydrate and back to the anhydrate of the ditosylate salt compounds of the invention is as depicted in Scheme B. The tosylate salt of 5-(4-[3-chloro-4-(3-fluorobenzyloxy)-anilino]-6-quinazolinyl)-furan-2-carbaldehyde is prepared from the HCl salt of the carbaldehyde (Formula A of Scheme B). Preparation of N-{3-Chloro-4-[(3-fluorobenzyl) oxy]phenyl}-6-[5-({[2-(methanesulphonyl)ethyl]amino}methyl)-2-furyl]-4-quinazolinamine ditosylate and the anhydrate and monohydrate forms thereof are utilized as an example. As recognized by those skilled in the art, other compounds of formula I and anhydrate and hydrate forms thereof may be prepared by similar methods.

Compound A of Scheme B may be prepared by various synthetic strategies, other that the strategy recited in Scheme A above, utilizing the palladium(O) mediated coupling of quinazoline and substituted furan intermediates.

To a 20 L reactor was added 13.3 vol of THF followed by 0.62 wt (2.93 mol) of NaBH(OAc)₃. The 20 L reactor was set to maintain contents at 20° C. A second 20 L reactor was charged with 1000 grams, (1.55 mol) of 5-(4-[3-chloro-4-(3-fluorobenzyloxy)-anilino]-6-quinazolinyl)-furan-2-carbaldehyde 4-methyl benzenesulfonate prepared by the procedure of Example 7 and 6.7 vol of THF. To the THF solution of 5-(4-[3-chloro-4-(3-fluorobenzyloxy)-anilino]-6-quinazolinyl)-furan-2-carbaldehyde 4-methylbenzenesulfonate was added 0.325 vol (1.86 mol) diisopropylethylamine followed by 0.32 wt of 2-(methylsulfone)ethylamine, (321 g, 2.6 mol) and 0.15 vol of IPA. After 1 hour, the preformed imine/THF solution was transferred by vacuum to the stirred suspension of NaBH(OAC)₃in the first 20 L reactor over 10 minutes. After 90 minutes, 4 vol of 5N NaOH was added over 40 min via a pump. This solution was allowed to stir for 15 minutes after which the stirrer was switched off and the layers were allowed to separate. The aqueous layer was drained from the bottom of the reactor and the organic layer transferred to the empty 20 L reactor through a teflon-lined stainless steel jacketed transfer hose outfitted with an in-line 0.45 μm filter. To this solution was added a 2 vol THF solution of 4 wt (1180 g, 6.2 mole) of p-toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate over 5 min. A yellowish precipitate was observed to come out of solution and this was allowed to stir at room temperature for 12 hours. The reaction was drained from the bottom of the reactor and filtered through a ceramic filter lined with paper. The yellow filter cake was washed with 1 vol of a 95:5 THF water solution and allowed to air dry overnight. After suctioning dry for 12 hours, the yellow filter cake was transferred to two glass trays and placed in the drying oven (42° C.) under house vacuum (18 in Hg) with a nitrogen bleed. The two glass trays were removed from the oven and allowed to cool to room temperature and sampled accordingly. The isolated yield of N-{3-Chloro-4-[(3-fluorobenzyl) oxy]phenyl}-6-[5-({[2-(methane-sulphonyl)ethyl]amino}methyl)-2-furyl]-4-quinazolinamine ditosylate (anhydrate) was 1264 grams (1.3 wt, 88%; 1443 g Th) and was a yellow solid.

Approximately 50 mg of the product was transferred to a Karl Fisher Volumetric Moisture Apparatus (model DL35, Mettler, Hightstown, N.J.), which was operated according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The anhydrate water content was determined to be 0.31%.

Example 10Preparation of N-{3-Chloro-4-[(3-fluorobenzyl) oxy]phenyl}-6-[5-({[2-(methanesulphonyl)ethyl]amino}methyl)-2-furyl]-4-quinazolinamine ditosylate monohydrate (Monohydrate Form of Compound of Formula II)

A 20 L reactor was charged with 1 wt (930 g, 1.0 mol) of N-{3-Chloro-4-[(3-fluorobenzyl) oxy]phenyl}-6-[5-({[2-(methanesulphonyl)ethyl]amino}methyl)-2-furyl]-4-quinazolinamine ditosylate anhydrate prepared using the procedure of Example 8. To this was added 10 volumes of a pre-mixed 8:2 THF:deionized water solution and the reactor was heated to 65° C. Complete dissolution was observed at 50° C. The clear reaction mixture was transferred to another 20 L reactor through a stainless steel jacketed transfer hose that was equipped with an in-line 5.0 μm cartridge filter. The empty 20 L reactor and the filter line were washed with 0.2 vol of the pre-mixed 8:2 THF:deionized water solution. An additional 1 vol of pre-mixed 8:2 THF:deionized water solution was used to wash the material into the reaction mixture. The 20 L reactor was heated to ˜80° C. The reaction temperature was then ramped down to 55° C. over 2 hours and then to 45° C. over 10 hours. After 10 hours, the temperature was adjusted to 25° C. and the reaction mixture allowed to stir at room temperature for 45 minutes. The yellow precipitate was drained from the bottom of the 20 L reactor into a ceramic filter lined with paper. The flow was fast and smooth and the filter rate very good. The yellow filter cake was washed with 0.6 volumes of a pre-mixed 8:2 THF:deionized water solution and the yellow solid was air dried for 4 hours and placed into a glass tray. The glass tray was placed in a vacuum oven under house vacuum (˜18 in Hg) at 60° C. with a nitrogen bleed for 2 days. After removal from the oven, the material was sampled accordingly. The yield was 743 grams (0.8 wt, 80%; 930 g th) as a bright yellow, crystalline solid.

Approximately 50 mg of the product was transferred to a Karl Fisher Volumetric Moisture Apparatus (model DL35, Mettler, Hightstown, N.J.), which was operated according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The monohydrate water content was determined to be 1.99%, which is in agreement with the theoretical value of 1.92%.

A Tube-in-Tube reactor/injector has been developed, based on a gas-permeable Teflon AF-2400 membrane, which allows both heterogeneous and homogeneous catalytic hydrogenation reactions to be efficiently carried out at elevated pressure in flow, thereby increasing the safety profile of these reactions. Measurements of the gas permeation through the tubing and uptake into solution, using both a burette method and a novel computer-assisted ‘bubble counting’ technique, indicate that permeation/dissolution follows Henry’s law and that saturation is achieved extremely rapidly. The same gas-permeable membrane has also been shown to efficiently effect removal of excess unreacted hydrogen, thus enabling further downstream reaction/processing.

Imatinib (INN), marketed by Novartis as Gleevec (Canada, South Africa and the USA) or Glivec (Australia, Europe and Latin America), and sometimes referred to by its investigational name STI-571, is a tyrosine-kinase inhibitor used in the treatment of multiple cancers, most notably Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph⁺) chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML).^[1]

Like all tyrosine-kinase inhibitors, imatinib works by preventing a tyrosine kinase enzyme, in this case BCR-Abl, fromphosphorylating subsequent proteins and initiating the signalling cascade necessary for cancer growth and survival, thus preventing the growth of cancer cells and leading to their death by apoptosis.^[2] Because the BCR-Abl tyrosine kinase enzyme exists only in cancer cells and not in healthy cells, imatinib works as a form of targeted therapy—only cancer cells are killed through the drug’s action.^[3] In this regard, imatinib was one of the first cancer therapies to show the potential for such targeted action, and is often cited as a paradigm for research in cancer therapeutics.^[4]

Imatinib has been cited as the first of the exceptionally expensive cancer drugs, costing $92,000 a year. Doctors and patients complain that this is excessive, given that its development costs have been recovered many times over, and that the costs of synthesizing the drug are orders of magnitude lower. In the USA, the patent protecting the active principle will expire on 4 January 2015 while the patent protecting the beta crystal form of the active principal ingredient will expire on 23 May 2019.^[5]

The developers of imatinib were awarded the Lasker Award in 2009 and the Japan Prize in 2012.^[6]^[7]

bcr-abl kinase (green), which causes CML, inhibited by imatinib (red; small molecule).

Medical uses

Imatinib is used to treat chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) and a number of othermalignancies.

Chronic myelogenous leukemia

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved imatinib as first-line treatment for Philadelphia chromosome-positive CML, both in adults and children. The drug is approved in multiple Philadelphia chromosome-positive cases of CML, including after stem cell transplant, in blast crisis, and newly diagnosed.^[8]

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors

The FDA first granted approval for advanced GIST patients in 2002. On 1 February 2012, imatinib was approved for use after the surgical removal of KIT-positive tumors to help prevent recurrence.^[9] The drug is also approved in unresectable KIT-positive GISTs.^[8]

Other

The FDA has approved imatinib for use in adult patients with relapsed or refractory Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ ALL), myelodysplastic/ myeloproliferative diseases associated with platelet-derived growth factor receptor gene rearrangements, aggressive systemic mastocytosis without or an unknown D816V c-KIT mutation, hypereosinophilic syndrome and/or chronic eosinophilic leukemia who have the FIP1L1-PDGFRα fusion kinase (CHIC2 allele deletion) or FIP1L1-PDGFRα fusion kinase negative or unknown, unresectable, recurrent and/or metastaticdermatofibrosarcoma protuberans.^[8] On 25 January 2013, Gleevec was approved for use in children with Ph+ ALL.^[10]

For treatment of progressive plexiform neurofibromas associated with neurofibromatosis type I, early research has shown potential for using the c-KIT tyrosine kinase blocking properties of imatinib.^[11]^[12]^[13]^[14]

Legal challenge to generics

In 2007, imatinib became a test case through which Novartis challenged India’s patent laws. A win for Novartis would make it harder for Indian companies to produce generic versions of drugs still manufactured under patent elsewhere in the world. Doctors Without Borders argues a change in law would make it impossible for Indian companies to produce cheap generic antiretrovirals (anti-HIV medication), thus making it impossible for Third World countries to buy these essential medicines.^[43] On 6 August 2007, the Madras High Court dismissed the writ petition filed by Novartis challenging the constitutionality of Section 3(d) of Indian Patent Act, and deferred to the World Trade Organization (WTO) forum to resolve the TRIPS compliance question. As of 2009 India has refused to grant patent exclusivity..

On April 01, 2013 Supreme Court of India dismissed the plea of Novartis for the grant of patent.

Imatinib is a 2-phenyl amino pyrimidine derivative that functions as a specific inhibitor of a number of tyrosine kinase enzymes. It occupies the TK active site, leading to a decrease in activity.

There are a large number of TK enzymes in the body, including the insulin receptor. Imatinib is specific for the TK domain inabl(the Abelson proto-oncogene), c-kit and PDGF-R (platelet-derived growth factorreceptor).

In chronic myelogenous leukemia, the Philadelphia chromosome leads to a fusion protein of abl with bcr(breakpoint cluster region), termed bcr-abl. As this is now aconstitutively active tyrosine kinase, imatinib is used to decrease bcr-abl activity.

The active sites of tyrosine kinases each have a binding site for ATP. The enzymatic activity catalyzed by a tyrosine kinase is the transfer of the terminal phosphate from ATP to tyrosine residues on its substrates, a process known as protein tyrosinephosphorylation. Imatinib works by binding close to the ATP binding site of bcr-abl, locking it in a closed or self-inhibited conformation, and therefore inhibiting the enzyme activity of the protein semi-competitively.^[32] This fact explains why many BCR-ABL mutations can cause resistance to imatinib by shifting its equilibrium toward the open or active conformation.^[33]

Imatinib is quite selective for bcr-abl – it does also inhibit other targets mentioned above (c-kit and PDGF-R), but no other knowntyrosine kinases. Imatinib also inhibits the abl protein of non-cancer cells but cells normally have additional redundant tyrosine kinases which allow them to continue to function even if abl tyrosine kinase is inhibited. Some tumor cells, however, have a dependence on bcr-abl.^[34] Inhibition of the bcr-abl tyrosine kinase also stimulates its entry in to the nucleus, where it is unable to perform any of its normal anti-apoptopic functions.^[35]

The Bcr-Abl pathway has many downstream pathways including the Ras/MapK pathway, which leads to increased proliferation due to increased growth factor-independent cell growth. It also affects the Src/Pax/Fak/Rac pathway. This affects the cytoskeleton, which leads to increased cell motility and decreased adhesion. The PI/PI3K/AKT/BCL-2 pathway is also affected. BCL-2 is responsible for keeping the mitochondria stable; this suppresses cell death by apoptosis and increases survival. The last pathway that Bcr-Abl affects is the JAK/STAT pathway, which is responsible for proliferation.^[36]

synthesis

…………………………

Imatinib is known as an inhibitor of protein-tyrosine kinase and is indicated for the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Imatinib also has potential for the treatment of various other cancers that express these kinase including acute lymphocyte leukemia and certain solid tumors. It can also be used for the treatment of atherosclerosis, thrombosis, restenosis, or fibrosis. Thus, imatinib can also be used for the treatment of non-malignant diseases. Imatinib is usually administered orally in the form of a suitable salt, e.g., in the form of imatinib mesylate.

The chemical name of Imatinib is 4-(4-methyl piperazine -1- methyl) -N-4-methyl-3-[4- (3- pyridyl) pyrimidine-2-amino] – benzamide and is represented by the following structural formula:

(Imatinib)

Imatinib Mesylate is an inhibitor of signal transduction (STI571) invented by Novartis AG after 7 years of hard work; it is the first inhibitor of cancer signal transduction ratified in the whole world. It is sold by Novartis as Gleevec capsules containing imatinib mesylate in amounts equivalent to 100 mg or 400 mg of imatinib free base.

Imatinib Mesylate is the rare drug in America, European Union and Japan. In May 10, 2001, it was ratified by American Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat the chronic myelogenous leukemia patients. EP0564409 (US5521 184) describes the process for the preparation of imatinib and the use thereof, especially as an anti tumour agent.

There are generally two synthetic routes for synthesis of Imatinib, suitable for the industrial production. One synthetic process as described in scheme-I comprises using 2-methyl-5-nitroaniline as the raw material which is reacted with cyanamide to obtain guanidine; cyclization reaction with 3-dimethylamino-l-(3-pyridyl)-2-propylene-l- ketone; reduction step of nitro to amine and condensation reaction with 4- (Chloromethyl)benzoyl chloride and N-methylpiperazidine to obtain Imatinib (WO 2004/108669). -I

Scheme-2 describes the successful process for the synthesis of Imatinib using 4-methyl-3- nitroanilines as the raw material, comprising reacting 4-methyl-3-nitroanilines with 4- (Chloromethyl)benzoyl chloride and N-methyl piperazidine in turns; followed by reduction of nitro group to amino group; then reaction with cyanamide to obtain guanidine; finally cyclization reaction with 3- dimethyl amino- 1 -(3- pyridyl)-2- propylene-1 -ketone to obtain Imatinib (WO 03/066613). The said PCT application discloses the use of 4-4-(methyl piperazin-l-ylmethyl)-benzoic acid methyl ester as one of the raw material but rest of the reactants are different from that of N-(5-amino -2- methylphenyl)-4-(3-pyridyl)-2-pyrimidine amine in presence of trimethyl aluminium.

Scheme-2

Common feature of the processes for preparing imatinib according to (WO 2004/108669) and (WO03/066613) lies in use of cyanamide as a reagent. The main difference between the two routes is that the reaction sequence of cyclization of pyrimidine chain is different. Example 10 of PCT International Publication no. WO 2003/066613 is less applicable to industrial purposes. These include the reaction between N-(3-bromo-4-methyl-phenyl)-4- (4-methyl-piperazin-l -ylmethyl)-benzamide and 4-(3-pyridyl)-2-pyrimidineamine which uses a mixture of rac-BINAP (a phosphine oxide catalyst) and Pd₂ (dba)₃*CHCl₃. These catalysts are very expensive, therefore, their use is unfit for commercial production.

CN1630648A describes a process comprising reaction of 3- bromine-4- methyl aniline with 4-(4-methyl-piperazin- methyl) methyl benzoate in presence of trimethyl-Aluminum to obtain N-(4-methyl-3-bromobenzene)-4-(4-methyl-piperazin- 1 -methyl)-benzamide, which further reacts with 2-amino-4-(3-pyridyl)- pyrimidine in presence of palladium as catalyst to obtain Imatinib.

The drawback of the above process is the use of trimethyl-Aluminum, which is flammable and reacts severely when comes in contact with water.

CN101016293A describes another process using N-(4-methyl-3-3- aminophenyl)-4-(4- methyl-piperazin-1 -methyl)- benzamide as the raw material. The said raw material is reacted with 2-halogen-4-(3-pyridyl)- pyrimidine to obtain Imatinib.

The process disclosed in CN 101016293 A comprises use of halogenated agent, such as phosphorus oxychloride, which is used to synthesize 2-halogeno-4- methyl- (3-pyridyl) – pyridine is lachrymator and corrosive and has great influence to the surroundings. EP0564409 describes a coupling reaction between N-(5-amino -2-methylphenyl)-4-(3- pyridyl)-2-pyrimidine amine and 4-(4-methyl piperazin-l-ylmethyl)-benzoyl chloride in the presence of high quantity of pyridine to starting reactant amine N-(5-amino -2- methylphenyl)-4-(3-pyridyl)-2-pyrimidine amine. The ratio of the pyridine to the said reactant is 138 which is equivalent to about 40 parts v/w. Use of such a large quantity of pyridine is unsafe as it is a toxic solvent according to ICH guidelines. The workup of the reaction comprises evaporation of the remaining pyridine and further processing, which finally involves chromatography for purification, which is highly undesirable on industrial scale because it is expensive and time consuming.

US2006/0149061 and US20060223817 also discloses a similar synthetic approach comprising the use of similar pyridine /starting amine ratio (140 equivalents which is equals about 41 parts v/w). The product obtained is purified by slurring in ethyl acetate.

WO2004/074502 describes a coupling reaction between N-(5-amino -2-methylphenyl)-4- (3-pyridyl)-2-pyrimidine amine and 4-(4-methyl piperazin-l-ylmethyl)-benzoyl chloride wherein solvent like dimethyl pharmamide , dimethyl acetamide, N-methyl pyrilidinone are used as solvents instead of pyridine. However the method described in this patent application lacks an advantage in that the coupling reaction produces the hydrohalide salt of imatinib, e.g. imatinib trihydrochloride monohydrate, which has to be treated with a base in order to afford the imatinib base, thus an extra step is required. Further, conventional methods for coupling N-(5-amino -2-methylphenyl)-4-(3-pyridyl)-2- pyrimidine amine require reaction with an acid halide, e.g. 4-(4-methyl piperazin-1- ylmethyl)-benzoyl chloride, which requires an additional production step that can involve harsh and/or toxic chlorinating agent.

WO2008/1 17298 describes a coupling reaction between N-(5-amino -2-methylphenyl)-4- (3-pyridyl)-2-pyrimidine amine and 4-(4-methyl piperazin-l-ylmethyl)-benzoyl chloride in presence of a base selected from potassium carbonate, sodium carbonate, potassium or sodium hydroxide. Use of potassium carbonate as base results into the formation of Imatinib dihydrochloride which ultimately requires an additional operation of neutralization by using excessive base to get imatinib.

WO2008/136010 describes a coupling reaction between N-(5-amino -2-methylphenyl)-4- (3-pyridyl)-2-pyrimidine amine and 4-(4-methyl piperazin-l-ylmethyl)-benzoyl chloride in presence of base potassium hydroxide resulting into 78.6% yield of crude imatinib base. Preparation of crude requires imatinib hydrochloride preparation during the workup which is then basified to get base in crude form. This also describes maleate salt preparation as mode of purification which is again basified to give pure Imatinib base.

US patent application 2004/0248918 discloses a different approach using N-(5-amino -2- methylphenyl)-4-(3-pyridyl)-2-pyrimidine amine and 4-(2-chloromethyl)-benzoyl chloride as raw material. The reaction for the preparation of Imatinib is carried out in tetrahydrofuran as a reaction solvent and in the presence of pyridine as a base. However the method described in this patent application lacks an advantage as purification of the product requires column chromatography using chloroform: methanol (3: 1 v/v), which is not suitable purification method when performing the reaction on large scale, followed by crystallizati

US patent application 2008/0103305 discloses a process comprising reacting N-(5-amino -2-methylphenyl)-4-(3-pyridyl)-2-pyrimidine amine or its alkyl derivative and an acid salt of 4-[(4-methyl-l-piperazinyl)-methyl] benzoyl derivative as given below in the scheme-3 using pyridine in an amount of about 2 to 10 volumes per gram of the said amine. However the drawback associated with this process is use of pyridine especially when reaction is performed on large scale. -3

This cancer drug was one of the first offspring of rational drug design and if you believe the Wikipedia page hugely expensive despite its simple appearance (no stereocenters!). A group of Northwest University researchers set out to improve the existing Novartis procedure DOI and here is how they did it.

2-acetylpyridine (1) was alkylated with the acetal of N,N-dimethylformamide 2 to enamine 3. A pyrimidine ring in 5was formed with base and reagent guanidine nitrate 4 and nitrotoluene fragment 6 was added in a Ullmann-type reaction with CuI generating secondary amine 7. The nitro group was reduced by hydrazine / FeCl₃/C to the amine which was then converted to amide 8 with acid chloride 9. The final step is addition of piperazine 10 to form imatinib11.So is this procedure an improvement on the existing method and ready-made for industrial implementation? Surely they have eradicated the use of toxic cyanamide, cumbersome sodium metal and expensive palladium but they have also introduced equally toxic hydrazine and the harmful and explosive guanidine nitrate. As a further point of criticism the final step is demonstrated on a 0.5 gram scale. If the journal Organic Process Research & Development would live up to its standards the scale would at least be a kilogram.Liu, Y., Wang, C., Bai, Y., Han, N., Jiao, J., Qi, X. (2008).

Angelo Carotti and his group from University of Bari have developed a solid-phase synthesis of Imatinib which acts as a selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor (Tetrahedron Lett. 2007, 48, 3455. DOI: 10.1016/j.tetlet.2007.03.033). By applying microwave heating in five steps of the synthesis (preparation of linker 1, nucleophilic substitution, reduction of the nitro group, formation of guanidine and final cyclization) the total process could be accelerated. Key steps were the guanylation of aniline 2 where a higher yield and purity of product 3 could be obtained under microwave irradiation, and the final cyclization to resin bound Imatinib where the reaction time could be reduced from 20 h to 50 min. Addiotionally, resin stability was ensured due to the shorter reaction time.

In order to prepare the core heterocyclic unit a direct condensation between a 1,3-dicarbonyl compound 3.39 and an amidine or guanidine 3.40 is frequently employed (Scheme 36a). Alternatively, an amidine can be condensed with a vinylogous amide 3.41 resulting in the direct formation of 2,4-disubstituted pyrimidines. These condensations often require relatively harsh reaction conditions despite this they are of great value as they involve cheap or easily accessible materials and typically only form water as the principle byproduct.

A modification of the above pyrimidine synthesis has been applied in the generation of imatinib (3.36, Gleevec) which is Novartis’ tyrosine kinase inhibitor used for the treatment of chronic myeloic leukaemia. In a patented route the aldol product 3.47 undergoes a condensation reaction with guanidine 3.48 in basic media to give the 2-aminopyrimidine 3.49 (Scheme 37) [93]. After generating the functional pyrimidine core a hydrazine-mediated reduction of the nitro group in the side chain was conducted with Raney-Nickel as the catalyst. Amide formation with 4-chloromethylbenzoyl chloride (3.50) and a direct displacement of the benzylic chloride with N-methylpiperazine (1.118) complete this synthesis of imatinib in excellent overall yields.

Scheme 37: Synthesis of imatinib.

One noteworthy feature of this imatinib synthesis is that it is specifically designed for facile isolation of intermediates by precipitation due to their limited solubility in non-polar solvents [94]. Whilst this process was efficient in enabling the isolation of pure material after each step, it does not encourage telescoping of steps, which would in principal increase the overall efficiency of the process. Recently, similar approaches have been utilised in the academic environment using enabling techniques in a route to imatinib. For instance, our group has employed continuous flow synthesis methods to imatinib [95,96]. The route not only afforded imatinib but led to many previously inaccessible derivatives in an automated fashion within a single working day (Scheme 38). In addition, this particular sequence showcases the uses of scavenger resins for in-line purification as the synthesis progresses and features the use of a Buchwald–Hartwig amination in a late stage fragment coupling. While it was sufficient to access only small amounts of these structures (around 50 mg), these techniques are currently being adopted by several major pharmaceutical companies in order to enhance drug development and even manufacturing sequences.

Protein kinases catalyze the phosphorylation of serine, threonine, tyrosine and histidine residues in proteins. Aberrant regulation of kinase activity has been implicated in many diseases including cancer. Thus development of new strategies for kinase inhibitor design remains an active area of research with direct relevance to drug development. Abelson (Abl)tyrosine kinase is one of the Src-family of tyrosine kinases and is directly implicated in Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML). In this article, we have, for the first time, developed an efficient method for the construction of small molecule-based bisubstrate inhibitors of Abl kinase using click chemistry. Subsequent biochemical screenings revealed a set of moderately potentinhibitors, a few of which have comparable potency to Imatinib (an FDA-approved drug for treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia) against Abl.

Medicine for Blood Cancer

‘Imitinef Mercilet’ is a medicine which cures blood cancer.

‘Imitinef Mercilet’ is apparently an alternative spelling of the drug Imatinib mesylate which is used in the treatment of some forms of leukemia along with other types of cancer. Imatinib, often referred to a “Gleevec”, has proved to be an effective treatment for some forms of cancers. However, “blood cancer” is a generalized term for cancers that affect the blood, lymphatic system or bone marrow. The three types of blood cancer are listed as leukemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma. These three malignancies require quite different kinds of treatments. While drugs (including Imatinib), along with other treatments such as radiation can help to slow or even stop the progress of these cancers, there is currently no single drug treatment that can be said to actually cure all such cancers.

Imatinib is a small molecule selectively inhibiting specific tyrosine kinases that has emerged recently as a valuable treatment for patients with advanced GIST. The use of imatinib as monotherapy for the treatment of GIST has been described in PCT publication WO 02/34727, which is here incorporated by reference. However, it has been reported that primary resistance to imatinib is present in a population of patients, for example 13.7% of patients in one study. In addition, a number of patients acquire resistance to treatment with imatinib. More generally this resistance is partial with progression in some lesions, but continuing disease control in other lesions. Hence, these patients remain on imatinib treatment but with a clear need for additional or alternative therapy.

Imatinib is 4-(4-methylpiperazin-1-ylmethyl)-N-[4-methyl-3-(4-pyridin-3-yl)pyrimidin-2-ylamino)phenyl]-benzamide having the formula I

The preparation of imatinib and the use thereof, especially as an anti-tumour agent, are described in Example 21 of European patent application EP-A-0 564 409, which was published on 6 Oct. 1993, and in equivalent applications and patents in numerous other countries, e.g. in U.S. Pat. No. 5,521,184 and in Japanese patent 2706682

UK chemists have used a combination of flow chemistry methods with solid-supported scavengers and reagents to synthesise the active pharmaceutical ingredient, imatinib, of the anticancer drug Gleevec. The method avoids the need for any manual handling of intermediates and allows the drug to be synthesised in high purity in less than a day.

Gleevec, developed by Novartis, is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor used for the treatment of chronic myeloid leukaemia and gastrointestinal stromal tumours.

‘Wrapping’ Gleevec Fights Drug-Resistant Cancer, Study Shows

A new study in Cancer Research finds that the anti-cancer drug Gleevec® is far more effective against a drug-resistant strain of cancer when the drug wraps the target with a molecular bandage that seals out water from a critical area.

FIG 23.8 Optimization of imatinib as a chemotherapeutic agent. The discovery that 2-phenylaminopyrimidine inhibitors of PKC also inhibit the unrelated v-Abl oncogene turned attention to its potential use in the treatment of chronic myelogenous leukaemia. Starting with the 2-phenylaminopyrimidine backbone, addition of the benzamidine group increased activity against tyrosine kinases, the methyl group reduced its activity against PKC (so-called ‘ target hopping ’ ). Addition of a 3’-pyridyl group improved the activity in cellular assays. Subsequent addition of N -methylpiperazine increased water solubility and oral bioavailability, enabling the drug to survive the stomach and to enter the bloodstream.

New Route to Paricalcitol

September 10, 2014 7:31 am / Leave a comment

thumbnail image: New Route to Paricalcitol

Synthesis offers potential routes to analogues of vitamin-D-based drug

Paricalcitol, an A-ring-modified 19-nor analogue of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D₂, is currently used for the treatment and prevention of secondary hyperparathyroidism associated with chronic renal failure.

For treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD) Stage 3 and 4

Paricalcitol (chemically it is 19-nor-1,25-(OH)₂-vitamin D₂. Marketed by Abbott Laboratories under the trade name Zemplar) is a drugused for the prevention and treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism (excessive secretion of parathyroid hormone) associated withchronic renal failure. It is an analog of 1,25-dihydroxyergocalciferol, the active form of vitamin D₂ (Ergocalciferol).

Paricalcitol is a synthetic vitamin D analog. Paricalcitol has been used to reduce parathyroid hormone levels. Paricalcitol is indicated for the prevention and treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism associated with chronic renal failure.

Medical uses

Its primary use in medicine is in the treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism associated with chronic kidney disease.^[2] In three placebo-controlled studies, chronic renal failure patients treated with paricalcitol achieved a mean parathyroid hormone (PTH) reduction of 30% in six weeks. Additionally there was no difference in incidence of hypercalcemia or hyperphosphatemia when compared to placebo.^[3] A double-blind randomised study with 263 dialysis patients showed a significant advantage over calcitriol (also known as activated vitamin D₃; a similar molecule to 1,25-dihydroxyergocalciferol, adding a methyl group on C₂₄ and lacking a double-bond in the C₂₂ position). After 18 weeks, all patients in the paricalcitol group had reached the target parathormone level of 100 to 300 pg/ml, versus none in the calcitriol group.^[4] Combination therapy with paricalcitol and trandolapril has been found to reduce fibrosis inobstructive uropathy.^[5] Forty-eight week therapy with paricalcitol did not alter left ventricular mass index or improve certain measures of diastolic dysfunction in 227 patients with chronic kidney disease.^[6]

Mechanism of action

3D structure of paricalcitol

Like 1,25-dihydroxyergocalciferol, paricalcitol acts as an agonist for the vitamin D receptor and thus lowers the bloodparathyroid hormone level.^[1]

Pharmacokinetics

Within two hours after administering paricalcitol intravenous doses ranging from 0.04 to 0.24 µg/kg, concentrations of paricalcitol decreased rapidly; thereafter, concentrations of paricalcitol declined log-linearly. No accumulation of paricalcitol was observed with multiple dosing.^[9]

vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin. It is found in food, but also can be formed in the body after exposure to ultraviolet rays. Vitamin D is known to exist in several chemical forms, each with a different activity. Some forms are relatively inactive in the body, and have limited ability to function as a vitamin. The liver and kidney help convert vitamin D to its active hormone form. The major biologic function of vitamin D is to maintain normal blood levels of calcium and phosphorus. Vitamin D aids in the absorption of calcium, helping to form and maintain healthy bones.

The 19-nor vitamin D analogue, Paricalcitol (I), is characterized by the following formula:

In the synthesis of vitamin D analogues, a few approaches to obtain a desired active compound have been outlined previously. One of the methods is the Wittig-Homer attachment of a 19-nor A-ring phosphine oxide to a key intermediate bicyclic-ketone of the Windaus-Grundmann type, to obtain the desired Paricalcitol, as is shown for example in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,281,731 and 5,086,191 of DeLuca.

The synthesis of Paricalcitol requires many synthetic steps which produce undesired by-products. Therefore, the final product may be contaminated not only with a by-product derived from the last synthetic step of the process but also with compounds that were formed in previous steps. In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration guidelines recommend that the amounts of some impurities be limited to less than 0.1 percent.

U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,281,731 and 5,086,191 of DeLuca disclose a purification process of Paricalcitol by using a HPLC preparative method.

As the unwanted products have almost the same structure as the final product, it may difficult to get a sufficiently pure drug substance, vitamin D analogue, using this route to purify the drug substance. Moreover, the high polarity of Paricalcitol makes it very difficult to purify by HPLC and to recover the solid product. Furthermore, HPLC preparative methods are generally not applicable for use on industrial scale. There remains a need in the art to provide a method of preparing the vitamin D analogue Paricalcitol in a sufficiently pure form which is applicable for use on an industrial scale.

Paricalcitol (chemical name: 19-nor-1α,3β,25-trihydroxy-9,10-secoergosta-5(Z),7(Z),22(E)-triene; Synonyms: 19-nor-1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D₂, Paracalcin) is a synthetic, biologically active vitamin D analog of calcitriol with modifications to the side chain (D2) and the A (19-nor) ring. Paricalcitol inhibits the secretion of parathyroids hormone (PTH) through binding to the vitamin D receptor (D. M. Robinson, L. J. Scott, Drugs, 2005, 65 (4), 559-576) and it is indicated for the prevention and treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Paricalcitol is marketed under the name Zemplar®, which is available as a sterile, clear, colorless, aqueous solution for intravenous injection (each mL contains 2 microgram (2 μg) or 5 μg paricalcitol as active ingredient) or as soft gelatin capsules for oral administration containing 1 μg, 2 μg or 4 μg paricalcitol.

The molecular formula of paricalcitol is C₂₇H₄₄O₃which corresponds to a molecular weight of 416.65. It is a white, crystalline powder and has the following structural formula:

Historically, nor-vitamin D compounds were described in 1990 as a new class of vitamin D analogs wherein the exocyclic methylene group C(19) in ring A has been removed and replaced by two hydrogen atoms (see e.g. WO 90/10620). So far, two different routes have been discovered for the synthesis of such 19-nor-vitamin analogs which specifically may be used for the preparation of paricalcitol.

The first synthesis of paricalcitol is disclosed in WO 90/10620 (additional patents from patent family: EP patent no. 0 387 077, U.S. Pat. No. 5,237,110, U.S. Pat. No. 5,342,975, U.S. Pat. No. 5,587,497, U.S. Pat. No. 5,710,294 and U.S. Pat. No. 5,880,113) and generally described in Drugs of the Future, 1998, 23, 602-606.

Example 3 of WO 90/10620 provides the preparation of 1α,25-dihydroxy-19-nor-vitamin D₂(Scheme 1) by using experimental conditions analogous to the preparation of 1α,25-dihydroxy-19-nor-vitamin D₃. According to this description the starting material 25-hydroxyvitamin D2 is first converted to 1α,25-dihydroxy-3,5-cyclovitamin D₂(a2) using the procedures published by DeLuca et al. in U.S. Pat. No. 4,195,027 and Paaren et al. published in J. Org. Chem., 1980, 45, 3252. Acetylation of compound a2 followed by dihydroxylation of the exocyclic methylene group using osmium tetroxide in pyridine gives the 10,19-dihydroxy compound a4 which is converted with sodium metaperiodate (diol cleavage) to the 10-oxo-intermediate a5. Reduction of the 10-oxo group in a5 is carried out by treatment with sodium borohydride in a mixture of ethanol and water giving the corresponding 10-hydroxy derivative a6. Mesylation of the 10-hydroxy group in a6 (→a7) followed by reduction with lithium aluminium hydride in THF gives the 10-deoxy intermediate a8 wherein the 1-OAcyl group was simultaneously cleaved during the reduction step. Solvolysis (cycloreversion) of a8 by treatment with hot (55° C.) acetic acid results in the formation of two monoacetates (a9 and a10) which are separated and purified by using HPLC. Finally both monoacetates are saponified with aqueous potassium hydroxide in methanol yielding paricalcitol which is purified by HPLC.

The preparation of paricalcitol according to the method provided in WO 90/10620 has several drawbacks:

- (1) the starting material 25-hydroxyvitamin D2 is one of the major metabolites of vitamin D2 and not readily available in larger amounts. Additional efforts have to be made in order to synthesize the starting material in sufficient amounts resulting in a protractive and unattractive total synthesis of paricalcitol. Examples for the preparation of 25-hydroxyvitamin D2 are described e.g. in U.S. Pat. No. 4,448,721; WO 91/12240; Tetrahedron Letters, 1984, 25, 3347-3350; J. Org. Chem., 1984, 49, 2148-2151 and J. Org. Chem., 1986, 51, 1264-1269;
- (2) the use of highly toxic osmium tetroxide which requires special precaution for its handling;
- (3) use of HPLC for separation of isomers and purification of the final compound. As teached in WO 2007/011951 paricalcitol is difficult to purify by HPLC and as a preparative method HPLC is generally not applicable for use on industrial scale;
- (4) the yields for the preparation of paricalcitol are not described in WO 90/10620. Generally, the provided yields for the preparation of the analogue compound 1α,25-dihydroxy-19-nor-vitamin D3 are very low especially for the corresponding steps 7 to 11 (yield starting from 1α,25-dihydroxy-10-oxo-3,5-cyclo-19-nor-vitamin D3 1-acetate which is the vitamin D3 analogue to a5 in Scheme1: step 7: 63.4%, steps 8-10: 10.7%, step 11: 51.7%; overall yield starting with step 7: 3.5%).

Another strategy for synthesizing 19-nor vitamin D compounds is disclosed in EP 0 516 410 (and corresponding U.S. Pat. No. 5,281,731, U.S. Pat. No. 5,391,755, U.S. Pat. No. 5,486,636, U.S. Pat. No. 5,581,006, U.S. Pat. No. 5,597,932 and U.S. Pat. No. 5,616,759). The concept is based on condensing of a ring-A unit, as represented by structure b1 (Scheme 2), with a bicyclic ketone of the Windaus-Grundmann type, structure b2, to obtain 19-nor-vitamin D compound (b3).

Specific methods for synthesizing compounds of formula b1 are shown in Schemes 3, 4 and 5. According to Scheme 3, the route starts with the commercially available (1R,3R,4R,5R)(−)quinic acid (b4). Esterification of b4 with methanol followed by protection of the l- and 3-hydroxygroup using tert.-butyldimethylsilyl chloride (TBDMSCl) gives compound b5. Reduction of the ethyl ester in b5 yields b6 which is subjected to a diol cleavage giving compound b7. The 4-hydroxy group is protected as trimethylsilylether resulting in the formation of b8 which is further converted in a Peterson reaction with ethyl (trimethylsilyl)acetate before being deprotected with dilute acetic acid in tetrahydrofurane (THF). The resulting compound b9 is treated with 1,1-thiocarbonyldiimidazole to obtain b10. Subsequent reaction with tributyltin hydride in the presence of a radical initiator (AIBN) gives b11. Compound b11 is then reduced with DIBAH to the allylalcohol b12 which is then reacted with NCS and dimethyl sulfide giving the allylchloride b13. Finally the ring A synthon b14 is prepared by treatment of the allychloride b13 with lithium diphenylphosphide followed by oxidation with hydrogen peroxide.

In an alternative method for synthesizing the ring A unit (Scheme 3), the intermediate b5 can be also subjected to radical deoxygenation using analogues conditions as previously described, resulting in the formation of b16. Reduction of the ester (→b17), followed by diol cleavage (→b18) and Peterson reaction gives intermediate b11 which can be further processed to b14 as outlined in Scheme 3.

Another modification for the preparation is shown in Scheme 5. As described, b7 can be also subjected to the radical deoxygenation yielding intermediate b18 which can be further processed to b14 as depicted in Schemes 3 and 4.

In EP 0 516 411 (and its counterpart, U.S. Pat. No. 5,086,191) is disclosed the preparation of intermediates useful for the synthesis of 19-nor vitamin D compounds (Scheme 6). The key step is the condensation of compounds c1 which can be prepared in an analogous manner as previously described for e.g. b14 (Scheme 3) with compounds c2, resulting in compounds of formula c3.

EP 0 516 411 discloses that Grignard coupling of hydroxy-protected 3-hydroxy-3-methylbutylmagnesium bromide with compound c5 (Scheme 7) can give hydroxy-protected 1α,25-dihydroxy-19-nor vitamin D3 or coupling of the corresponding 22-aldehyde c3 (X¹=X²=TBDMS, R¹=—CHO) with 2,3-dimethylbutyl phenylsulphone can give after desulfonylation, 1α-hydroxy-19-norvitamin d2 in hydroxy-protected form.

An additional method for preparation of 1α-hydroxy-19-nor-vitamin D compounds is provided in EP 0 582 481 (and corresponding U.S. Pat. No. 5,430,196, U.S. Pat. No. 5,488,183, U.S. Pat. No. 5,525,745, U.S. Pat. No. 5,599,958, U.S. Pat. No. 5,616,744 and U.S. Pat. No. 5,856,536) (Scheme 8). Similar to the strategy as described above and shown in schemes 3 to 7, the basis for preparing 1α-hydroxy-19-nor-vitamin D compounds is an independent synthesis of ring A synthon and ring C/D synthon which are finally coupled resulting in vitamin analogs.

Thus the synthesis of 1α-hydroxy-19-nor-vitamin D compounds comprises the coupling of either the ketone d1 with the acetylenic derivatives d2 or ketone d4 with acetylenic derivatives d3, yielding compounds of formula d5. Partial reduction of the triple bond giving d6 followed by reduction using low-valent titanium reducing agents results in the formation of 7,8-cis and 7,8-trans-double bond isomers (d7). Compounds of formula d7 can be also obtained directly from d5 by reaction of d5 with a metal hydride/titanium reducing agent. The isomeric mixture of compounds of formula d7 may be separated by chromatography to obtain separately the 7,8-trans-isomer. The 7,8-cis-isomer of structure d7 can be isomerized to yield the corresponding 7,8-trans-isomer. Finally any protecting groups, if present, can be then removed to obtain 1α-hydroxy-19-nor-vitamin D compounds.

The main disadvantage of the strategies as shown in Schemes 3 to 8 is the fact that ring A as well as ring C/D of the vitamin D derivative has to be separately synthesized before coupling them to compounds like 1α-hydroxy-nor-vitamin D or a protected precursor thereof. According to literature procedure, the ring fragment C/D can be prepared from vitamin D2 by ozonolysis (see e.g. J. C. Hanekamp et al., Tetrahedron, 1992, 48, 9283-9294) from which the ring A is cleaved (and disposed). This fragment has then to be separately synthesized e.g. by using other sources or starting materials like quinic acid in up to 10 steps or more. Therefore such strategies for the total synthesis of 1α-hydroxy-nor-vitamin D compounds become protractive and unattractive for large scale and according to the procedures provided in these patents, the final compounds are obtained only in amounts of <10 mg and in most cases even <1 mg.

Paricalcitol is an active Vitamin D Analog. Paricalcitol is used for the treatment and prevention of secondary hyperparathyroidism associated with chronic kidney disease.

It has been shown to reduce parathyroid hormone levels by inhibiting its synthesis and secretion.

The 25-hydroxyvitamin D2 (I) is converted into the cyclovitamin D2 acetate (II) according to known methods. The dihydroxylation of the methylene group of (II) with OsO4 in pyridine gives vicinal diol (III), which is oxidized with NaIO4 yielding the ketonic cyclovitamin (IV). The reduction of the ketonic group of (IV) with NaBH4 in ethanol/water affords the corresponding hydroxy derivative (V), which is treated with mesyl chloride and triethylamine to give the mesylate (VI). The reduction of (VI) with LiAlH4 in THF yields the 19-nor-cyclovitamin D (VII), which is treated with hot acetic acid to afford both monoacetates (VIII) and (IX), separated by HPLC. Finally, both monoacetates (VIII) and (IX) are hydrolyzed with KOH in methanol.

Albaconazole (UR-9825) is a triazole antifungal. It has potential broad-spectrum activity.

Albaconazole is a broad-spectrum antifungal agent being evaluated in phase II clinical trials by Stiefel for the oral treatment of fungal infections, including toenail fungus, distal onychomycosis and subungual onychomycosis. Early clinical trials for the treatment of tinea pedis have been completed. In September 2005, Uriach, originator of albaconazole, granted Stiefel exclusive rights to develop and market albaconazole on a worldwide basis. In November 2006, Uriach’s R&D pipeline was transferred to Palau Pharma, a newly-created spin-out company. Under the terms of the agreement with Stiefel, Palau retains rights as comarketing partner in some European countries. In August 2013, Palau Pharma granted worldwide rights to Actavis. A triazole, albaconazole, has shown potent activity against a broad range of organisms, including pathogens resistant to other antifungals, such as fluconazole or itraconazole. It will be developed as an oral and topical formulation, and is expected to be available to the medical community for a variety of dermatological indications and fungal infections, including vulvovaginal candidiasis.

Method for preparing pyrimidone derivatives with antifungal activity

The condensation of the chiral oxazolidinone (I) with 2,4-difluorophenacyl bromide (II) by means of NaHMDS in THF/Et2 O gives the chiral oxirane (III), which is treated with LiOH and H2O2 to eliminate the chiral auxiliary, yielding the carboxylic acid (IV). The cleavage of the oxirane ring of (IV) with 1,2,4-triazole (V) and NaH in hot DMF affords the chiral hydroxyacid (VI), which is submitted to Curtius rearrangement by means of DPPA in hot pyridine to provide the chiral oxazolidinone (VII). The cleavage of the oxazolidinone ring of (VII) by means of refluxing aq. HCl gives the chiral aminoalcohol (VIII), which is condensed with 2-amino-4-chlorobenzoic acid (IX) by means of DCC and HOBt to yield the corresponding amide (X). Finally, this compound is cyclized to the target quinazolinone by reaction with triethyl orthoformate in hot dioxane/NMP.

EP 0783501; ES 2107376; ES 2120885; JP 1998508317; US 5807854; WO 9705130

…………………………………………..

The condensation of (R)-lactic acid (I) with morpholine (II) gives the corresponding morpholide (III), which is protected at the hydroxyl position with dihydropyran (IV) to yield the tetrahydropyranyl ether (V). The Grignard reaction of (V) with 2,4-difluorophenylmagnesium bromide (VI) affords the chiral 1-propanone (VII), which by a Corey’s diastereoselective epoxidation with trimethylsulfoxonium iodide is converted into the oxirane (VIII). The opening of the oxirane ring of (VIII) by means of 1,2,4-triazole (IX) and NaH provides the tertiary alcohol (X), which is treated with pyridine p-toluenesulfonate to give the deprotected diol (XI) as a (2R,3R) and (2R,3S) 4:1 diastereomeric mixture, from which the desired (2R,3R)-isomer (XII) was isolated by crystallization. The reaction of (XII) with Ms-Cl and TEA, followed by cyclization with NaOMe, yields the oxirane (XIII), which is finally condensed with 7-chloroquinazolin-4(3H)-one (XIV) by means of K2CO3 in hot NMP.

ES 2159488; WO 0166519

…………………………………………….

Alternatively, intermediate (XIII) can be obtained as follows: Heating of ethyl (S)-lactate (XIV) with morpholine affords amide (XVI), which then reacts with 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran (A) in the presence of p-TsOH to give protected derivative (XVII). Grignard reaction between (XVII), bromo derivative (XVIII) and Mg turnings in THF yields protected ketone (XIX), which is treated with pyridinium p-toluenesulfonate (PPTS) (THP group removal) and reprotected by means of Tf2O and DIEA to give triflate derivative (XX). Conversion of (XX) into intermediate (XIII) is achieved by reaction with triazolone (VII) and NaH in THF.

Chem Pharm Bull 1993,41(6),1035-42

……………………………………

Alternatively, derivative (XXIX) can be obtained in an analogous way as its enantiomer (XIX). Diastereoselective epoxidation of (XXIX) with trimethylsulfoxonium iodide and NaH in DMSO provides oxirane (XXX) (3). THP group removal by means of PPTS in EtOH, followed by reaction with 3,5-dinitrobenzoyl chloride (XXXI) and NaHCO3 in CH2Cl2, yields a diastereomeric mixture from which dinitrobenzoate derivative (2R,3R)-(XXXII) is obtained by recrystallization (1). Hydrolysis of (2R,3R)-(XXXII) in MeOH by treatment with aqueous NaOH gives compound (2R,3R)-(XXXIII), which is converted into ester (2R,3S)-(XXXIV) by Mitsunobu reaction with benzoic acid, Ph3P and DEAD in THF. Subsequent debenzoylation of (2R,3S)-(XXXIV) with NaOMe in MeOH affords oxiranyl ethanol derivative (2R,3R)-(XXXV), which is first converted into its triflate derivative by means of Tf2O and DIEA in CH2Cl2, and then into triazolone derivative (2S,3R)-(XXXVI) by reaction with intermediate (VII) and NaH in CH2Cl2/DMF. Finally, oxirane derivative (2S,3R)-(XXXVI) reacts with triazole (XXVI) and NaH in DMF to furnish the desired product.

…………………………………………………..

ER-30346 is synthesized by thiazole ring formation of (2R,3R)-3-(2,4-difluorophenyl)-3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)thiobutanamide (I) and 4-bromoacetylbenzonitrile (II) by means of reflux in methanol. The thioamide (I) is obtained with excellent yield from a chiral nitrile (III) by heating with diethyl dithiophosphate in aqueous medium.

…………………………………………….

The nitrile (III), a chiral key intermediate of this synthesis, can be obtained by two different synthetic routes as follows: Route-a: The key step of this route is ring opening reaction of the trisubstituted oxirane (VII) by cyanide anion leading to the nitrile (III). The chiral oxirane (VII) is synthesized from (R)-lactic acid derivatives as already reported. The reaction of (VII) with diethylaluminum cyanide in toluene or lithium cyanide in tetrahydrofuran gives the nitrile (III) with high yield without any epimerization reaction.

…………………………………………..

The nitrile (III), a chiral key intermediate of this synthesis, can be obtained by two different synthetic routes as follows: Route-b: The starting material of this route is methyl (S)-3-hydroxy-2-methylpropionate (VIII), which contains one additional carbon between the hydroxyl group and the 2-position carbon of (R)-lactate, the starting material of route-a. The hydroxyl group of (VIII) is protected by triphenylmethyl group. Then, 2,4-difluorophenyl moiety is introduced to give the ketone (X). Direct conversion of the ketone (X) to the oxirane (XIV) by dimethylsulfoxonium methylide, the same condition for compound (IV) in route-a, does not proceed. The oxirane (XIV) having desired stereochemistry is obtained via oxidation reaction. The ketone (X) is converted to the exomethylene (XI) by Wittig reaction. The stereoselective oxidation of (XI) is achieved by means of osmium tetroxide in the presence of 4-methylmorpholine N-oxide to give the diol (XII) in 58% yield after separation of its epimer by column chromatography. After methanesulfonylation of the primary alcohol of (XII), a triazole moiety is introduced and the triphenylmethyl group is deprotected. Then, the primary hydroxyl group of (XVI) is oxidized under Swern oxidation condition to give the aldehyde (XVII), which is converted to the chiral nitrile intermediate (III) by means of heating with hydroxylamine-O-sulfonic acid.

A series of azole antifungal agents featuring a quinazolinone nucleus have been subjected to studies of structure−activity relationships. In general, these compounds displayed higher in vitro activities against filamentous fungi and shorter half-lives than the structures described in our preceding paper. The most potent products in vitro carried a halogen (or an isostere) at the 7-position of the quinazolinone ring. Using a murine model of systemic candidosis, oral activity was found to be dependent on hydrophobicity, which, in turn, modulated the compound’s half-life. The 7-Cl derivative, (1R,2R)-7-chloro-3-[2-(2,4-difluorophenyl)-2-hydroxy-1-methyl-3-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)propyl]quinazolin-4(3H)-one (20, UR-9825), was selected for further testing due to its high in vitro activity, low toxicity, good pharmacokinetic profile, and ease of obtention. Compound 20 is the (1R,2R) isomer of four possible stereoisomers. The other three isomers were also prepared and tested. The enantiomer (1S,2S) and the (1R,2S) epimer were inactive, whereas the (1S,2R) epimer retained some activity. In vitro 20 was superior to fluconazole, itraconazole, SCH-42427, and TAK-187 and roughly similar to voriconazole and ER-30346. In vivo, 20 was only moderately active in a mouse model of systemic candidosis when administration was limited to the first day. This was attributed to its short half-life in that species (t_1/2 = 1 h po). Protection levels comparable to or higher than those of fluconazole, however, were observed in systemic candidosis models in rat and rabbit, where the half-life of the compound was found to be 6 and 9 h, respectively. Finally, 20 showed excellent protection levels in an immunocompromised rat model of disseminated aspergillosis. The compound showed low toxicity signs when administered to rats at 250 mg/kg qd or at 100 mg/kg bid during 28 days.

Infinity Pharmaceuticals has partnered with AbbVie to develop and commercialise its duvelisib (IPI-145), an oral inhibitor of phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K)-delta and PI3K-gamma, to treat patients with cancer.

Duvelisib has shown clinical activity against different blood cancers, such as indolent non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (iNHL) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).

AbbVie executive vice-president and chief scientific officer Michael Severino said: “We believe that duvelisib is a very promising investigational treatment based on clinical data showing activity in a broad range of blood cancers.”

Duvelisib (IPI-145, INK-1197), an inhibitor of PI3K-delta and –gamma, originated at Takeda subsidiary Intellikine. It is now being developed by Infinity Pharmaceuticals, which began a phase III trial in November, following US and EU grant of orphan drug status for both CLL and small lymphocytic leukemia

INK-1197 is a dual phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase delta (PI3Kdelta) and gamma (PI3Kgamma) inhibitor in phase III clinical development at Infinity Pharmaceuticals for the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia and small lymphocytic lymphoma. The company is also carring phase II trials for the treatment of patients with mild asthma undergoing allergen challenge, for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and for the treatment of refractory indolent non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Phase I clinical trials for the treatment of advanced hematological malignancies (including T-cell lymphoma and mantle cell lymphoma) are currently under way.
IPI-145 is an oral inhibitor of phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K)-delta and PI3K-gamma. The PI3K-delta and PI3K-gamma isoforms are preferentially expressed in leukocytes (white blood cells), where they have distinct and non-overlapping roles in key cellular functions, including cell proliferation, cell differentiation, cell migration and immunity. Targeting PI3K-delta and PI3K-gamma may provide multiple opportunities to develop differentiated therapies for the treatment of blood cancers and inflammatory diseases.
Licensee Infinity Pharmaceuticals is developing INK-1197. In 2014, Infinity licensed Abbvie for joint commercialization in the U.S. and exclusive commercialization elsewhere. Originator Millennium Pharmaceuticals had also been developing the compound; however, no recent development has been reported for this research. In 2013, orphan drug designations were assigned by the FDA and the EMA for the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia, for the treatment of small lymphocytic lymphoma and for the treatment of follicular lymphoma.

currently enrolling patients DYNAMO™, a Phase 2 study designed to evaluate the activity and safety of IPI-145 in approximately 120 people with refractory indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma (iNHL) and DUO™, a Phase 3 clinical study of IPI-145 in approximately 300 people with relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). These studies are supported by Phase 1 data reported at the 2013 American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting which showed that IPI-145 was well tolerated and clinically active in a broad range of malignancies, including iNHL and CLL. These studies are part of DUETTS™, a worldwide investigation of IPI-145 in blood cancers.

[00563] Compound 1 (6.00 kg) was treated with 1-hydroxybenzotriazole monohydrate (HOBt^»H₂0), triethylamine, Ν,Ο-dimethylhydroxylamine hydrochloride, and EDCI in dimethylacetamide (DMA) at

10 °C. The reaction was monitored by proton NMR and deemed complete after 2.6 hours, affording Compound 2 as a white solid in 95% yield. The R-enantiomer was not detected by proton NMR using (R)-(- ) -alpha-ace tylmandelic acid as a chiral-shift reagent.

Synthesis of (S)-3-(l-aminoethyl)-8-chloro-2-phenylisoquinolin-l(2H)-one

Example 2A

[00568] To Compound 7 (20.1 g) was charged 100 mL of anhydrous THF. The resulting solution was cooled to about -10 °C and 80 mL of n-hexyl lithium (2.3 M in hexanes, 2.26 equiv.) was slowly added (e.g. , over about 20 min). The resulting solution was stirred at about -10 °C for about 20 min.

[00569] To Compound 2 (26.5 g; 1.39 equiv.) was charged 120 mL of anhydrous THF. The resulting mixture was cooled to about -10 °C and 60 mL of isopropyl magnesium chloride (2.0 M in THF, 1.47 equiv.) was slowly added (e.g. , over about 15-20 min). The resulting mixture was then stirred at about -10 °C for about 20 min. The mixture prepared from Compound 2 was added to the solution prepared from Compound 7 while maintaining the internal temperature between about -10 and about 0 °C. After the addition was complete (about 5 min), the cold bath was removed, and the resulting mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for about 1 h, then cooled. [00570] A solution of 100 mL of anisole and 33 mL of isobutyric acid (4.37 equiv.) was prepared. The anisole solution was cooled to an internal temperature of about -3 °C. The above reaction mixture was added to the anisole solution such that the internal temperature of the anisole solution was maintained at below about 5 °C. The ice bath was then removed (after about 15 min, the internal temperature was about 7 °C). To the mixture, 100 mL of 10 wt aqueous NaCl solution was rapidly added (the internal temperature increased from about 7 °C to about 15 °C). After stirring for about 30 min, the two phases were separated. The organic phase was washed with another 100 mL of 10 wt aqueous NaCl. The organic phase was transferred to a flask using 25 mL of anisole to facilitate the transfer. The anisole solution was then concentrated to 109 g. Then, 100 mL of anisole was added.

[00571] To the approximately 200 mL of anisole solution was added 50 mL of TFA (8 equiv.) while maintaining the internal temperature below about 45-50 °C. The resulting solution warmed to about 45-50 °C and stirred for about 15 hrs, then cooled to 20-25 °C. To this solution was added 300 mL of MTBE dropwise and then the resulting mixture was held at 20-25 °C for 1 h. The mixture was filtered, and the wet cake washed with approximately 50 mL of MTBE. The wet cake was conditioned on the filter for about 1 h under nitrogen. The wet cake was periodically mixed and re-smoothed during conditioning. The wet cake was then washed with 200 mL of MTBE. The wet cake was further conditioned for about 2 h (the wet cake was mixed and resmoothed after about 1.5 h). The wet cake was dried in a vacuum oven at about 40 °C for about 18 h to afford Compound 9^»TFA salt in about 97.3% purity (AUC), which had about 99.1 % S- enantiomer (e.g. , chiral purity of about 99.1 %).

[00572] Compound 9^»TFA salt (3 g) was suspended in 30 mL of EtOAc at about 20 °C. To the EtOAc suspension was added 4.5 mL (2.2 eq.) of a 14% aqueous ammonium hydroxide solution and the internal temperature decreased to about 17 °C. Water (5 mL) was added to the biphasic mixture. The biphasic mixture was stirred for 30 min. The mixing was stopped and the phases were allowed to separate. The aqueous phase was removed. To the organic phase (combined with 5 mL of EtOAc) was added 10 mL of 10% aqueous NaCl. The biphasic mixture was stirred for about 30 min. The aqueous phase was removed. The organic layer was concentrated to 9 g. To this EtOAc mixture was added 20 mL of i-PrOAc. The resulting mixture was concentrated to 14.8 g. With stirring, 10 mL of n-heptane was added dropwise. The suspension was stirred for about 30 min, then an additional 10 mL of n-heptane was added. The resulting suspension was stirred for 1 h. The suspension was filtered and the wet cake was washed with additional heptane. The wet cake was conditioned for 20 min under nitrogen, then dried in a vacuum oven at about 40 °C to afford Compound 9 free base in about 99.3% purity (AUC), which had about 99.2% S-enantiomer (e.g., chiral purity of about 99.2%).

Example 2B [00573] A mixture of Compound 7 (100 g, 0.407 mol, 1 wt) and THF (500 mL, 5 vol) was prepared and cooled to about 3 °C. n-Hexyllithium (2.3 M in hexanes, 400 mL, 0.920 mol, 2.26 equiv) was charged over about 110 minutes while maintaining the temperature below about 6 °C. The resulting solution was stirred at 0 ± 5 °C for about 30 minutes. Concurrently, a mixture of Compound 2 (126 g, 0.541 mol, 1.33 equiv) and THF (575 mL, 5.8 vol) was prepared. The resulting slurry was charged with isopropylmagnesium chloride (2.0 M in THF, 290 mL, 0.574 mol, 1.41 equiv) over about 85 minutes while maintaining the temperature below about 5 °C. The resulting mixture was stirred for about 35 minutes at 0 ± 5 °C. The Compound 2 magnesium salt mixture was transferred to the Compound 7 lithium salt mixture over about 1 hour while maintaining a temperature of 0 ± 5 °C. The solution was stirred for about 6 minutes upon completion of the transfer.

[00574] The solution was added to an about -5 °C stirring solution of isobutyric acid (165 mL, 1.78 mol, 4.37 equiv) in anisole (500 mL, 5 vol) over about 20 minutes during which time the temperature did not exceed about 6 °C. The resulting solution was stirred for about 40 minutes while being warmed to about 14 °C. Then, a 10% sodium chloride solution (500 mL, 5 vol) was rapidly added to the reaction. The temperature rose to about 21 °C. After agitating the mixture for about 6 minutes, the stirring was ceased and the lower aqueous layer was removed (about 700 mL). A second portion of 10% sodium chloride solution (500 mL, 5 vol) was added and the mixture was stirred for 5 minutes. Then, the stirring was ceased and the lower aqueous layer was removed. The volume of the organic layer was reduced by vacuum distillation to about 750 mL (7.5 vol).

[00575] Trifluoroacetic acid (250 mL, 3.26 mol, 8.0 equiv) was added and the resulting mixture was agitated at about 45 °C for about 15 hours. The mixture was cooled to about 35 °C and MTBE (1.5 L, 15 vol) was added over about 70 minutes. Upon completion of the addition, the mixture was agitated for about 45 minutes at about 25-30 °C. The solids were collected by vacuum filtration and conditioned under N₂ for about 20 hours to afford Compound 9*TFA salt in about 97.5% purity (AUC), which had a chiral purity of about 99.3%.

[00576] Compound 9^»TFA salt (100 g) was suspended EtOAc (1 L,10 vol) and 14% aqueous ammonia (250 mL, 2.5 vol). The mixture was agitated for about 30 minutes, then the lower aqueous layer was removed. A second portion of 14% aqueous ammonia (250 mL, 2.5 vol) was added to the organic layer. The mixture was stirred for 30 minutes, then the lower aqueous layer was removed. Isopropyl acetate (300 mL, 3 vol) was added, and the mixture was distilled under vacuum to 500 mL (5 vol) while periodically adding in additional isopropyl acetate (1 L, 10 vol).

[00577] Then, after vacuum-distilling to a volume of 600 mL (6 vol), heptanes (1.5 L, 15 vol) were added over about 110 minutes while maintaining a temperature between about 20 °C and about 30 °C. The resulting slurry was stirred for about 1 hour, then the solid was collected by vacuum filtration. The cake was washed with heptanes (330 mL, 3.3 vol) and conditioned for about 1 hour. The solid was dried in an about 45 °C vacuum oven for about 20 hours to afford Compound 9 free base in about 99.23% purity (AUC), which has a chiral purity of about 99.4%.

Example 3

Chiral Resolution of (S)-3-(l-aminoethyl)-8-chloro-2-phenylisoquinolin-l(2H)-one (Compound 9)

[00578] In some instances, (S)-3-(l-aminoethyl)-8-chloro-2-phenylisoquinolin-l(2H)-one (Compound 9) obtained by synthesis contained a minor amount of the corresponding (R)-isomer. Chiral resolution procedures were utilized to improve the enantiomeric purity of certain samples of (S)-3-(l-aminoethyl)-8- chloro-2-phenylisoquinolin- 1 (2H)-one.

[00579] In one experiment, Compound 9 (3.40 kg) was treated with D-tartaric acid in methanol at about 55 °C for about 1 to about 2 hours. The mixture was filtered and treated with ammonium hydroxide in deionized (DI) water to afford Compound 9 in greater than about 99% (AUC) purity, which had a chiral purity of about 91% (AUC).

[00580] In another procedure, MeOH (10 vol.) and Compound 9 (1 equiv.) were stirred at 55 ± 5 °C. D- Tartaric acid (0.95 equiv.) was charged. The mixture was held at 55 ± 5 °C for about 30 min and then cooled to about 20 to about 25 °C over about 3 h. The mixture was held for about 30 min and then filtered. The filter cake was washed with MeOH (2.5 vol.) and then conditioned. The cake was returned to the reactor and water (16 vol.) was charged. The mixture was stirred at 25 ± 5 °C. NH₄OH was then charged over about 1 h adjusting the pH to about 8 to about 9. The mixture was then filtered and the cake was washed with water (4 vol.) and then heptanes (4 vol.). The cake was conditioned and then vacuum dried at 45-50 °C to afford Compound 9 free base with a chiral purity of about 99.0%.

Example 4

Synthesis of (S)-3-(l-(9H-purin-6-ylamino)ethyl)-8-chloro-2-phenylisoquinolin-l(2H)-one

[00581] A mixture of Compound 7 (1 equiv.) and anhydrous THF (5 vol.) was prepared. Separately, a mixture of Compound 2 (1.3 equiv.) and anhydrous THF (5 vol.) was prepared. Both mixtures were stirred for about 15 min at about 20 to about 25 °C and then cooled to -25 ± 15 °C. n-Hexyl lithium (2.05 equiv.) was added to the Compound 7 mixture, maintaining the temperature at > 5 °C. i-PrMgCl (1.33 equiv.) was added to the Compound 2 mixture, maintaining the temperature at > 5 °C. The Compound 2 mixture was transferred to the Compound 7 mixture under anhydrous conditions at 0 ± 5 °C. The resulting mixture was warmed to 20 ± 2 °C and held for about 1 h. Then, the reaction was cooled to -5 ± 5 °C, and 6 N HC1 (3.5 equiv.) was added to quench the reaction, maintaining temperature at below about 25 °C. The aqueous layer was drained, and the organic layer was distilled under reduced pressure until the volume was 2-3 volumes. IPA (3 vol.) was added and vacuum distillation was continued until the volume was 2-3 volumes. IPA (8 vol.) was added and the mixture temperature was adjusted to about 60 °C to about 75 °C. Cone. HC1 (1.5 vol.) was added and the mixture was subsequently held for 4 hours. The mixture was distilled under reduced pressure until the volume was 2.5-3.5 volumes. The mixture temperature was adjusted to 30 ± 10 °C. DI water (3 vol.) and DCM (7 vol.) were respectively added to the mixture.
