         [0002]    The present invention further relates to processes for preparation of the said substituted aryl acrylic acid addition salts of Crizotinib (I). The present application also provides pharmaceutically acceptable substituted aryl acrylic acid addition salts of Crizotinib (I) or its hydrate or solvate useful as active pharmaceutical ingredient in pharmaceutical composition comprising thereof, possessing anti-cancer activity. 
       INTRODUCTION 
       [0003]    Crizotinib is a kinase inhibitor indicated for the treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that is anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-positive. It was approved by USFDA in August of 2011 and is marketed under the trade name XALKORI™. Crizotinib is also undergoing clinical trials testing its safety and efficacy in anaplastic large cell lymphoma, neuroblastoma, and other advanced solid tumors in both adults and children. 
         [0004]    Crizotinib is chemically mentioned in the USFDA label as (R)-3-[1-(2,6-Dichloro-3-fluorophenyl)ethoxy]-5-[1-(piperidin-4-yl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]pyridin-2-amine (I). 
         [0000]    
       
                 
         
             
             
         
       
     
         [0005]    Crizotinib structure contains one chiral center. It is a non-hygroscopic, white to pale yellow powder which is insoluble in water, though being highly soluble in acidic pH. Crizotinib is defined in class IV (low solubility and low permeability) under the Biopharmaceutics Classification System (BCS). 
         [0006]    Cui, et al. in U.S. Pat. No. 7,230,098 B2 provided the first generic disclosure of (R)-3-[1-(2,6-Dichloro-3-fluorophenyl)ethoxy]-5-[1-(piperidin-4-yl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]pyridin-2-amine (also known as Crizotinib). 
         [0007]    Further Cui, et al. in U.S. Pat. No. 7,858,643 B2 provided the specific disclosure of Crizotinib and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts. This patent also describes the process for preparation of Crizotinib. The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” has been referred to include-acid addition salts, with inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid, sulfuric acid, and perchloric acid and the like, or with organic acids such as acetic acid, oxalic acid, (D) or (L) malic acid, maleic acid, methanesulfonic acid, ethanesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, salicylic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, succinic acid or malonic acid and the like. Also compounds wherein an acidic proton present in the parent compound is either replaced by a metal ion, e.g., an alkali metal ion, an alkaline earth ion, or an aluminum ion; or coordinates with an organic base such as ethanolamine, diethanolamine, triethanolamine, tromethamine, N-methylglucamine, and the like, have been disclosed to be amongst “pharmaceutically acceptable salts”. 
         [0008]    Then, Cui, et al. in U.S. Pat. No. 8,217,057 B2 disclosed a crystalline form of the free base of (R)-3-[1-(2,6-dichloro-3-fluoro-phenyl)-ethoxy]-5-(1-piperidin-4-yl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-pyridin-2-ylamine, designated as Form 1. U.S. Pat. No. 8,217,057 B2 mentions that the crystalline form of the free base of (R)-3-[1-(2,6-dichloro-3-fluoro-phenyl)-ethoxy]-5-(1-piperidin-4-yl-H-pyrazol-4-yl)-pyridin-2-ylamine is an anhydrous or a hydrate form. 
         [0009]    Available literature is indicative that very less is known about salt forms of Crizotinib. Choosing a pharmaceutically acceptable salt with desired combination of properties is an unpredictable activity. Selection of a suitable salt form involves an interplay of chemical properties, formulation feasibility and analysis from perspective of drug metabolism. Newer salt forms of a drug may come out as important therapeutic agents with better properties-biological as well as physical w.r.t. the base form or other salt forms. Different salt forms are generally known to offer improvement in physicochemical properties thus influencing absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion. It is believed that better physiochemical properties of a compound in turn affect its therapeutic efficacy as well. 
         [0010]    Hence there appears to be need for new salts of Crizotinib which may provide advantages like further improved physical and/or chemical and/or therapeutic properties. Hence it was thought worthwhile by the inventors of the present application to explore pharmaceutically acceptable substituted aryl acrylic acid addition salts of Crizotinib, which may further improve the characteristics of drug Crizotinib. 
         [0011]    More particularly, salts of Crizotinib with substituted aryl acrylic acid viz. Ferulic acid, Coumaric acid, Caffeic acid and the like have been explored by the inventors of the present application. Substituted aryl acrylic acids are found to occur naturally and may be obtainable by synthetic processes as well. The choice of substituted aryl acrylic acids for salt formation with Crizotinib base has been based on the premise that these salts are pharmaceutically acceptable and have favorable safety profile. 
         [0012]    For example, Ferulic acid is a known component of ‘asafoetida’, the dried latex from the giant fennel ( Ferula communis ). Further, it is found in the seeds of coffee, apple, peanut, and orange, as well as in both seeds and cell walls of plants such as rice, wheat, oats, and pineapple. Ferulic acid is also found in rice bran oil, which is a popular cooking oil. 
         [0013]    Coumaric acid, more particularly p-Coumaric acid can be found in a wide variety of edible plants such as peanuts, beans, tomatoes, carrots, and garlic. It is also found in wine and vinegar. p-Coumaric acid as glucoside can also be found in commercial breads containing flaxseed. Diesters of p-Coumaric acid can be found in carnauba wax. 
         [0014]    Caffeic acid is found in the bark of  Eucalyptus globulus . It can also be found in the fresh water fern  Salvinia molesta  or in the mushroom  Phellinus linteus . Amongst food materials Caffeic acid is found in coffee. It is one of the main natural phenols in argan oil. 
         [0015]    Thus, inventors of the present application provide novel pharmaceutically acceptable addition salts of substituted aryl acrylic acid with Crizotinib and process for their preparation. These new salts of Crizotinib as per present application are found to be stable and offer various advantages in terms of storage, shelf life and improved physical and/or chemical properties.

The reaction is carried out by stirring for 20-60 mins at a temperature ranging between 20-30° C., depending upon the progress of the reaction aimed at obtaining a clear reaction mixture. If required heating of reaction mixture may also be performed.
