Abstract

Described herein are uses of crystalline forms of 2-(4-methoxy-3-(3-methylphenethoxy)benzamido)-2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-2-carboxylic acid in the treatment of diseases or conditions that would benefit by administration with an LPA1 receptor antagonist compound.

Claims (19)

1 . A method of treating systemic sclerosis or lung disease in a subject in need thereof, comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of 2-(4-methoxy-3-(3-methylphenethoxy)benzamido)-2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-2-carboxylic acid (Compound I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein Compound I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered with a meal and at a daily dose equivalent to at least about 300 mg/day of Compound I.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein Compound I is a crystalline form of Compound I (Form 1) and is characterized as having an X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) pattern with peaks at 5.2 0.20 2-Theta, 9.0 0.20 2-Theta, 14.4+0.20 2-Theta, and 17.7 10.20 2-Theta, as measured using Cu (Ka) radiation.

3 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the crystalline form of Compound I (Form 1) comprises less than 1% w/w of crystalline Form 2 of Compound I.

4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the systemic sclerosis is chosen from limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis, diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis, and systemic sclerosis sine scleroderma.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the lung disease is lung fibrosis, interstitial lung disease (ILD), idiopathic interstitial pneumonia, connective tissue disease-associated interstitial lung disease (CTD-ILD), sarcoidosis, hypersensitivity pneumonitis, eosinophilic ILD, familial pulmonary fibrosis, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), non-specific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP), cryptogenic organizing pneumonia (COP), respiratory bronchiolitis interstitial lung disease (RBILD), desquamative interstitial pneumonia (DIP), acute interstitial pneumonia (AIP), or lymphoid interstitial pneumonia (LIP), or systemic sclerosis-associated interstitial lung disease (SSc-ILD).

6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein Compound I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered for a period of at least about 24 consecutive weeks, at least about 36 consecutive weeks, or at least about 52 consecutive weeks.

7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein Compound I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered orally.

8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein Compound I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered at a dose equivalent to about 300 mg of Compound I once daily.

9 . The method of claim 1 , wherein Compound I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered at a dose equivalent to about 300 mg of Compound I twice daily for a total daily dose equivalent to about 600 mg/day of Compound I.

10 . The method of claim 1 , wherein Compound I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered in combination with a cough suppression medication, a corticosteroid, an immunosuppressant, N-acetyl cysteine (NAC), an anti-fibrotic therapeutic agent, or combinations thereof; or with N-acetyl cysteine, a corticosteroid, an immunosuppressant, pirfenidone, nintedanib, imatinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, PBI-4050, recombinant pentraxin-2/SAP (PRM-151), aerosol IFN-y, an inhibitor of CTGF activity, a LPA receptor antagonist, an autotaxin inhibitor, a galectin-3 inhibitor, a LOXL2 inhibitor, tipelukast, an integrin antagonist, a PI3K inhibitor, a JNK inhibitor, a ROCK inhibitor, an anti-IL-13 compound, a CCL2 antagonist, a CCR2 antagonist, an anti-CD20 compound, an anticoagulant, a collagen V treatment, an ASK1 inhibitor, or combinations thereof; or with nintedanib, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; or with pirfenidone.

11 . The method of claim 1 , wherein Compound I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered in the form of a solid form pharmaceutical composition.

12 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the solid form pharmaceutical composition is a tablet, a pill, or a capsule.

13 . The method of claim 1 , wherein Compound I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered in the form of one or more tablets.

14 . The pharmaceutical composition of claim 13 , wherein each tablet and comprises about 50 mg to about 300 mg of Compound I, or about 50 mg to about 150 mg of Compound I.

15 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the subject is an adult human.

16 . A method of treating systemic sclerosis or lung disease in a subject in need thereof, comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of 2-(4-methoxy-3-(3-methylphenethoxy)benzamido)-2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-2-carboxylic acid (Compound I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein Compound I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered orally in the form of a solid form pharmaceutical composition once or twice daily with a meal.

17 . The method of claim 16 , wherein Compound I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered in the form of one or more tablets.

18 . The method of claim 16 , wherein Compound I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered at a dose equivalent to about 300 mg of Compound I once daily, or at a dose equivalent to about 300 mg of Compound I twice daily for a total daily dose equivalent to about 600 mg/day of Compound I.

19 . The method of claim 16 , wherein Compound I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered for a period of at least about 24 consecutive weeks, at least about 36 consecutive weeks, or at least about 52 consecutive weeks.
