Abstract

The present invention relates to a novel crystalline anhydrous form of [(5-chlorothiophene-2-ylsulfonylcarbamoyl)-(4-(6-fluoro-7-(methylamino)-2,4-dioxo-1,2-dihydroquinazolin-3(4H)-yl)phenyl)amide, potassium salt, and its use in the treatment or prevention of a condition or a disorder with platelet ADP receptor inhibition, in particular, P2Y 12 inhibition, in animals, particularly humans. It also relates processes for making such a novel crystalline form. The present invention also relates to a solid, oral formulation of this novel crystalline form, its preparation and use thereof.

Claims (37)

(b) a differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) melting followed by decomposition with an onset temperature of about 324° C. or a differential scanning calorimetry thermogram (DSC) substantially in accordance with that shown in FIG. 2 ;

(c) an FT-IR spectrum with the bands at 3427, 1716, 1637, 1514 and 1240 cm −1 , or an FT-IR spectrum substantially in accordance with that shown in FIG. 3 ;

(d) an FT-Raman spectrum with the bands at 1216, 1176, 699, 343 and 133 cm −1 or a FT-Raman spectrum substantially in accordance with that shown in FIG. 4 ; or

(e) shifts at about 165.7, 152.3, 146.4, 141.2, 130.2, and 112.8 ppm (±0.2 ppm) when characterized by 13 C solid state NMR.

2. The compound of claim 1 , characterized by an X-ray powder diffraction pattern which

(i) has peaks at 1.2, 15.8, and 26.4 degrees two theta (±0.2 degree) (CuK α λ1=1.54059 Å) or

(ii) has peaks at 11.2, 15.8, 17.2, 19.1, 24.8, 25.6, 26.4, 28.8, 29.4 and 32.0 degrees two theta (±0.2 degree) (CuK α λ=1.54059 Å), or

(iii) is as depicted in FIG. 1 .

3. The compound of claim 1 , characterized by an FT-Raman spectrum which

(a) has bands at 3427, 1716, 1637, 1514 and 1240 cm −1 , or

(b) has bands at 1715, 1632, 1421, 1313, 1216, 1176, 919, 699, 343 and 133 cm −1 ; or

(c) is substantially in accordance with that shown in FIG. 4 .

4. The compound of claim 1 , which shows shifts at

(a) 165.7, 152.3, 146.4, 141.2, 130.2, and 112.8 ppm (±0.2 ppm) when characterized by 13 C solid state NMR; or

(b) about 165.7, 152.3, 146.4, 141.2, 130.2, 112.8, 101.0, 97.0, and 31.4 ppm (±0.2 ppm) when characterized by 13 C solid state NMR.

5. The compound of claim 1 in 99, 95, 90, 85, 80, 75, 70, or 65% purity.

6. A pharmaceutical composition comprising the compound according to claim 1 and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or excipient.

7. The pharmaceutical composition according to claim 6 , comprising an additional therapeutic agent.

8. A solid pharmaceutical composition comprising the compound of claim 1 and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

9. The solid pharmaceutical composition according to claim 8 which is in the form of a tablet or a capsule.

10. A compressed solid oral dosage form comprising: a) solid pharmaceutical composition comprising: a) at least about 15% the compound of claim 1 , thereof by weight relative to the total weight of the overall pharmaceutical composition, and b) at least one pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

11. The compressed solid dosage form according to claim 10 comprising the compound of claim 2 in a unit dosage of from between about 50 and 300 mg.

12. The compressed solid dosage form according to claim 11 comprising the compound of claim 2 in a unit dosage of from between about 75 and 100 mg.

13. The compressed solid dosage form according to claim 11 comprising the compound of claim 2 in a unit dosage of about 150 mg.

14. A process for preparing the compound according to claim 1 comprising the steps of:

in water, wherein the suspension is initially at a temperature between 20-30° C.;

(b) heating the resulting solution to a temperature between 40-50° C.;

(c) filtering the resulting solution at a temperature between 40-50° C.;

(d) adding, at a temperature between 40-50° C., methanol or a 50-90% w/w methanol/water mixture, to form a supersaturated solution;

(e) adding, over a period of at least two hours, an aqueous acidic solution, containing 1 molar equivalent less than the amount of base used in step (a), to the supersaturated solution, wherein the acid has a pKa in the range of 3-6; wherein the temperature is kept at a temperature between 40-50° C.;

(f) cooling the resulting suspension from a temperature in the range of 40-50° C. to a temperature in the range of 20-30° C. over a period of at least 1.5 hours;
