1. FIELD
Provided herein are compositions of 7-(6-(2-hydroxypropan-2-yl)pyridin-3-yl)-1-((trans)-4-methoxycyclohexyl)-3,4-dihydropyrazino[2,3-b]pyrazin-2(1H)-one, a solid form thereof, isotopologues thereof, and methods of their use for the treatment of a disease, disorder, or condition.
2. BACKGROUND
The connection between abnormal protein phosphorylation and the cause or consequence of diseases has been known for over 20 years. Accordingly, protein kinases have become a very important group of drug targets. See Cohen, Nature, 1:309-315 (2002). Various protein kinase inhibitors have been used clinically in treating a wide variety of diseases, such as cancer, chronic inflammatory diseases, diabetes, and stroke. See Cohen, Eur. J. Biochem., 268:5001-5010 (2001), Protein Kinase Inhibitors for the Treatment of Disease: The Promise and the Problems, Handbook of Experimental Pharmacology, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 167 (2005).
The elucidation of the intricacy of protein kinase pathways and the complexity of the relationship and interaction among and between the various protein kinases and kinase pathways highlights the importance of developing pharmaceutical agents capable of acting as protein kinase modulators, regulators, or inhibitors that have beneficial activity on multiple kinases or multiple kinase pathways. Accordingly, there remains a need for new kinase modulators.
The protein named mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin), also known as FRAP, RAFTI or RAPT1, is a Ser/Thr protein kinase related to the lipid kinases of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) family. It functions as a sensor of mitogen, energy, and nutrient levels; and is a central controller of cell growth. mTOR has been shown to be one of the most critical proteins in the mTOR/PI3K/Akt pathway that regulates cell growth and proliferation. Georgakis and Younes, Expert Rev. Anticancer Ther. 6(1):131-140 (2006). mTOR exists in two complexes, mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) which complexes with raptor, and mammalian target of rapamycin complex 2 (mTORC2) which complexes with rictor. While mTORC1 is sensitive to rapamycin analogs (such as temsirolimus or everolimus), mTORC2 is largely rapamycin-insensitive (Kim et al., Cell 110(2):163-175 (2002); Sarbassov et al., Science 307:1098-1101 (2005)).
Several mTOR inhibitors have been or are being evaluated in clinical trials for the treatment of cancer. For example, temsirolimus was approved for use in renal cell carcinoma in 2007 and sirolimus was approved in 1999 for the prophylaxis of renal transplant rejection. Everolimus was approved in 2009 for renal cell carcinoma patients that have progressed on vascular endothelial growth factor receptor inhibitors, in 2010 for subependymal giant cell astrocytoma (SEGA) associated with tuberous sclerosis (TS) in patients who require therapy but are not candidates for surgical resection, and in 2011 for progressive neuroendocrine tumors of pancreatic origin (PNET) in patients with unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic disease. The interesting but limited clinical success of these mTORC1 compounds demonstrates the usefulness of mTOR inhibitors in the treatment of cancer and transplant rejection, and the increased potential for compounds with both mTORC1 and mTORC2 inhibitory activity.
The preparation and selection of a solid form of a pharmaceutical compound are complex, given that a change in the solid form may affect a variety of physical and chemical properties of the compound, which may in turn provide benefits or drawbacks in processing, formulation, stability, and bioavailability of the compound. Potential pharmaceutical solids include crystalline solids and amorphous solids. An amorphous solid is characterized by a lack of long-range structural order, whereas a crystalline solid is characterized by structural periodicity. The desired class of pharmaceutical solids depends upon the specific application; an amorphous solid is sometimes selected on the basis of, e.g., an enhanced dissolution profile, while a crystalline solid may be desirable for properties, such as physical or chemical stability. See Vippagunta et al., Adv. Drug. Deliv. Rev., 48:3-26 (2001); Yu, Adv. Drug. Deliv. Rev., 48:27-42 (2001).
Whether crystalline or amorphous, potential solid forms of a pharmaceutical compound may include single-component solids. A single-component solid contains essentially the pharmaceutical compound in the absence of other compounds. Variety among single-component crystalline materials may potentially arise, e.g., from the phenomenon of polymorphism, wherein multiple three-dimensional arrangements exist for a single pharmaceutical compound. See Byrn et al., Solid State Chemistry of Drugs, SSCI, West Lafayette (1999). The importance of polymorphs in pharmaceuticals was underscored by the case of Ritonavir, an HIV protease inhibitor that was formulated as soft gelatin capsules. About two years after the product was launched, the unanticipated precipitation of a new, less soluble polymorph in the formulation necessitated the withdrawal of the product from the market until a more consistent formulation could be developed. See Chemburkar et al., Org. Process Res. Dev., 4:413-417 (2000).
Notably, it is not possible to predict a priori if crystalline forms of a compound even exist, let alone how to successfully prepare them (see, e.g., Braga and Grepioni, 2005, “Making crystals from crystals: a green route to crystal engineering and polymorphism,” Chem. Commun.:3635-3645 (with respect to crystal engineering, if instructions are not very precise and/or if other external factors affect the process, the result can be unpredictable); Jones et al., 2006, Pharmaceutical Cocrystals: An Emerging Approach to Physical Property Enhancement,” MRS Bulletin 31:875-879 (At present it is not generally possible to computationally predict the number of observable polymorphs of even the simplest molecules); Price, 2004, “The computational prediction of pharmaceutical crystal structures and polymorphism,” Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews 56:301-319 (“Price”); and Bernstein, 2004, “Crystal Structure Prediction and Polymorphism,” ACA Transactions 39:14-23 (a great deal still needs to be learned and done before one can state with any degree of confidence the ability to predict a crystal structure, much less polymorphic forms)). The preparation of solid forms is of great importance in the development of a safe, effective, stable, and marketable pharmaceutical compound.

5. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
5.1 Definitions
To facilitate understanding of the disclosure set forth herein, a number of terms are defined below.
Generally, the nomenclature used herein and the laboratory procedures in organic chemistry, medicinal chemistry, and pharmacology described herein are those well known and commonly employed in the art. Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein generally have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure belongs.
It should be noted that if there is a discrepancy between a depicted structure and a name given that structure, the depicted structure is to be accorded more weight. In addition, if the stereochemistry of a structure or a portion of a structure is not indicated with, for example, bold or dashed lines, the structure or portion of the structure is to be interpreted as encompassing all stereoisomers of it.
The term “Compound A” refers to 7-(6-(2-hydroxypropan-2-yl)pyridin-3-yl)-1-((trans)-4-methoxycyclohexyl)-3,4-dihydropyrazino[2,3-b]pyrazin-2(1H)-one, also having the chemical names 7-(6-(2-hydroxypropan-2-yl)pyridin-3-yl)-1-((1r,4r)-4-methoxycyclohexyl)-3,4-dihydropyrazino[2,3-b]pyrazin-2(1H)-one and 7-(6-(2-hydroxypropan-2-yl)pyridin-3-yl)-1-((1R*,4R*)-4-methoxycyclohexyl)-3,4-dihydropyrazino[2,3-b]pyrazin-2(1H)-one, which has the following structure:




including pharmaceutically acceptable salts, isotopologues, solid forms and metabolites thereof.

Compound A can be prepared according to the methods described in U.S. Pat. Appl. Publ. Nos. 2010/0216781 and 2011/0137028, the disclosure of each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. Compound A can also be synthesized according to other methods apparent to those of skill in the art based upon the teaching herein.
The term “subject” refers to an animal, including, but not limited to, a primate (e.g., human), cow, pig, sheep, goat, horse, dog, cat, rabbit, rat, or mouse. The terms “subject” and “patient” are used herein interchangeably in reference, for example, to a mammalian subject, such as a human subject, in one embodiment, a human. In one embodiment, the subject has or is susceptible to having a disease, disorder, or condition provided herein.
The term “treat,” “treating,” or “treatment” means an alleviation, in whole or in part, of a disease, disorder, or condition provided herein, or one or more symptoms associated with the disease, disorder, or condition, or slowing, or halting of further progression or worsening of the disease, disorder, or condition, or one or more symptoms associated with the disease, disorder, or condition.
The term “prevent,” “preventing,” or “prevention” means prevention of the onset, recurrence, or spread of a disease, disorder, or condition provided herein, or one or more symptoms associated with the disease, disorder, or condition, in a subject at risk for developing the disease, disorder, or condition.
The term “effective amount” or “therapeutically effective amount” refers to, in one embodiment, an amount of Compound A capable of alleviating, in whole or in part, one or more symptoms associated with a disease, disorder, or condition provided herein, or slowing or halting further progression or worsening of one or more of the symptoms of the disease, disorder, or condition; in another embodiment, an amount capable of preventing or providing prophylaxis for the disease, disorder, or condition in a subject at risk for developing the disease, disorder, or condition, such as cancer, inflammatory conditions, immunological conditions, neurodegenerative diseases, diabetes, obesity, neurological disorders, age-related diseases, and/or cardiovascular conditions, and/or diseases, disorders, and conditions treatable or preventable by inhibition of a kinase pathway, for example, the mTOR/PI3K/Akt pathway. In one embodiment, an effective amount of a compound is an amount that inhibits a kinase in a cell, such as, for example, in vitro or in vivo. In one embodiment the kinase is TOR kinase. In certain embodiments, the effective amount of a compound inhibits the kinase in a cell by about 10%, about 20%, about 30%, about 40%, about 50%, about 60%, about 70%, about 80%, about 90%, or about 99%, compared to the activity of the kinase in an untreated cell. In one embodiment, “effective amount” refers to the amount of Compound A capable of alleviating, in whole or in part, symptoms associated with a solid tumor (for example, a neuroendocrine tumor, non-small cell lung cancer, glioblastoma multiforme, hepatocellular carcinoma, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, salivary cancer, pancreatic cancer, adenocystic cancer, adrenal cancer, esophageal cancer, renal cancer, leiomyosarcoma, or paraganglioma, including advanced solid tumors), non-Hodgkin lymphoma or multiple myeloma, or slowing or halting further progression or worsening of those symptoms, or treating or preventing a solid tumor (for example, a neuroendocrine tumor, non-small cell lung cancer, glioblastoma multiforme, hepatocellular carcinoma, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, salivary cancer, pancreatic cancer, adenocystic cancer, adrenal cancer, esophageal cancer, renal cancer, leiomyosarcoma, or paraganglioma), non-Hodgkin lymphoma or multiple myeloma in a subject having or at risk for having a solid tumor, non-Hodgkin lymphoma or multiple myeloma. As will be apparent to those skilled in the art, it is to be expected that the effective amount of a compound disclosed herein may vary depending on the indication being treated, e.g., the effective amount of the compound would likely be different for treating patients suffering from, or at risk for, inflammatory conditions relative to the effective amount of the compound for treating patients suffering from, or at risk of, a different disorder, e.g., a disorder provided herein.
In the context of a solid tumor (for example, a neuroendocrine tumor, non-small cell lung cancer, glioblastoma multiforme, hepatocellular carcinoma, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, salivary cancer, pancreatic cancer, adenocystic cancer, adrenal cancer, esophageal cancer, renal cancer, leiomyosarcoma, or paraganglioma, including advanced solid tumors), non-Hodgkin lymphoma or multiple myeloma, inhibition may be assessed by inhibition or retarding of disease progression, inhibition of tumor growth, reduction or regression of primary and/or secondary tumor (s), relief of tumor-related symptoms, improvement in quality of life, inhibition of tumor secreted factors (including tumor secreted hormones, such as those that contribute to carcinoid syndrome), reductions in endocrine hormone markers (for example, chromogranin, gastrin, serotonin, and/or glucagon), delayed appearance or recurrence of primary or secondary tumors, slowed development of primary and/or secondary tumors, decreased occurrence of primary and/or secondary tumors, slowed or decreased severity of secondary effects of disease, arrested tumor growth and/or regression of tumors, increased Time To Progression (TTP), increased Progression Free Survival (PFS), increased Overall Survival (OS), among others. OS as used herein means the time from randomization until death from any cause, and is measured in the intent-to-treat population. TTP as used herein means the time from randomization until objective tumor progression; TTP does not include deaths. As used herein, PFS means the time from randomization until objective tumor progression or death. In one embodiment, PFS rates will be computed using the Kaplan-Meier estimates. In the extreme, complete inhibition, is referred to herein as prevention or chemoprevention. In this context, the term “prevention” includes either preventing the onset of clinically evident solid tumor (for example, a neuroendocrine tumor, non-small cell lung cancer, glioblastoma multiforme, hepatocellular carcinoma, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, salivary cancer, pancreatic cancer, adenocystic cancer, adrenal cancer, esophageal cancer, renal cancer, leiomyosarcoma, or paraganglioma, including advanced solid tumors), non-Hodgkin lymphoma or multiple myeloma altogether or preventing the onset of a preclinically evident stage of a solid tumor (for example, a neuroendocrine tumor, non-small cell lung cancer, glioblastoma multiforme, hepatocellular carcinoma, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, salivary cancer, pancreatic cancer, adenocystic cancer, adrenal cancer, esophageal cancer, renal cancer, leiomyosarcoma, or paraganglioma, including advanced solid tumors), non-Hodgkin lymphoma or multiple myeloma. Also intended to be encompassed by this definition is the prevention of transformation into malignant cells or to arrest or reverse the progression of premalignant cells to malignant cells. This includes prophylactic treatment of those at risk of developing a solid tumor (for example, a neuroendocrine tumor, non-small cell lung cancer, glioblastoma multiforme, hepatocellular carcinoma, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, salivary cancer, pancreatic cancer, adenocystic cancer, adrenal cancer, esophageal cancer, renal cancer, leiomyosarcoma, or paraganglioma, including advanced solid tumors), non-Hodgkin lymphoma or multiple myeloma.
The term “cancer” refers to any of various malignant neoplasms characterized by the proliferation of cells that can invade surrounding tissue and metastasize to new body sites. Both benign and malignant tumors are classified according to the type of tissue in which they are found. For example, fibromas are neoplasms of fibrous connective tissue, and melanomas are abnormal growths of pigment (melanin) cells. Malignant tumors originating from epithelial tissue, e.g., in skin, bronchi, and stomach, are termed carcinomas. Malignancies of epithelial glandular tissue such as are found in the breast, prostate, and colon, are known as adenocarcinomas. Malignant growths of connective tissue, e.g., muscle, cartilage, lymph tissue, and bone, are called sarcomas. Lymphomas and leukemias are malignancies arising among white blood cells. Through the process of metastasis, tumor cell migration to other areas of the body establishes neoplasms in areas away from the site of initial appearance. Bone tissues are one of the most favored sites of metastases of malignant tumors, occurring in about 30% of all cancer cases. Among malignant tumors, cancers of the lung, breast, prostate or the like are particularly known to be likely to metastasize to bone.
An “advanced solid tumor” as used herein, means a solid tumor that has spread locally, or metastasized or spread to another part of the body.
In certain embodiments, the treatment may be assessed by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1) (see Thereasse P., et al. New Guidelines to Evaluate the Response to Treatment in Solid Tumors. J. of the National Cancer Institute; 2000; (92) 205-216 and Eisenhauer E. A., Therasse P., Bogaerts J., et al. New response evaluation criteria in solid tumours: Revised RECIST guideline (version 1.1). European J. Cancer; 2009; (45) 228-247). Overall responses for all possible combinations of tumor responses in target and non-target lesions with our without the appearance of new lesions are as follows:

CR = complete response; PR = partial response; SD = stable disease; and PD = progressive disease.






With respect to the evaluation of target lesions, complete response (CR) is the disappearance of all target lesions, partial response (PR) is at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum longest diameter, progressive disease (PD) is at least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum longest diameter recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions and stable disease (SD) is neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for partial response nor sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease, taking as reference the smallest sum longest diameter since the treatment started.
With respect to the evaluation of non-target lesions, complete response (CR) is the disappearance of all non-target lesions and normalization of tumor marker level; incomplete response/stable disease (SD) is the persistence of one or more non-target lesion(s) and/or the maintenance of tumor marker level above the normal limits, and progressive disease (PD) is the appearance of one or more new lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions.
In certain embodiments, the treatment of lymphoma may be assessed by the International Workshop Criteria (IWC) for non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) (see Cheson B D, Pfistner B, Juweid, M E, et. al. Revised Response Criteria for Malignant Lymphoma. J. Clin. Oncol: 2007: (25) 579-586), using the response and endpoint definitions shown below:

In one embodiment, the end point for lymphoma is evidence of clinical benefit. Clinical benefit may reflect improvement in quality of life, or reduction in patient symptoms, transfusion requirements, frequent infections, or other parameters. Time to reappearance or progression of lymphoma-related symptoms can also be used in this end point.
In certain embodiments, the treatment of multiple myeloma may be assessed by the International Uniform Response Criteria for Multiple Myeloma (IURC) (see Durie B G M, Harousseau J-L, Miguel J S, et al. International uniform response criteria for multiple myeloma. Leukemia, 2006; (10) 10:1-7), using the response and endpoint definitions shown below:











Response Subcategory
Response Criteriaa







sCR
CR as defined below plus Normal FLC ratio and



Absence of clonal cells in bone marrowb by



immunohistochemistry or immunofluorescencec


CR
Negative immunofixation on the serum and urine and



Disappearance of any soft tissue plasmacytomas



and <5% plasma cells in bone marrowb

time to progression estimates)





Abbreviations: CR, complete response; FLC, free light chain; PR, partial response; SD, stable disease; sCR, stringent complete response; VGPR, very good partial response;


aAll response categories require two consecutive assessments made at anytime before the institution of any new therapy; all categories also require no known evidence of progressive or new bone lesions if radiographic studies were performed. Radiographic studies are not required to satisfy these response requirements;


bConfirmation with repeat bone marrow biopsy not needed;


cPresence/absence of clonal cells is based upon the κ/λ ratio. An abnormal κ/λ ratio by immunohistochemistry and/or immunofluorescence requires a minimum of 100 plasma cells for analysis. An abnormal ratio reflecting presence of an abnormal clone is κ/λ of >4:1 or <1:2.


dMeasurable disease defined by at least one of the following measurements: Bone marrow plasma cells ≧30%; Serum M-protein ≧1 g/dl (≧10 gm/l)[10 g/l]; Urine M-protein ≧200 mg/24 h; Serum FLC assay: Involved FLC level ≧10 mg/dl (≧100 mg/l); provided serum FLC ratio is abnormal.






The procedures, conventions, and definitions described below provide guidance for implementing the recommendations from the Response Assessment for Neuro-Oncology (RANO) Working Group regarding response criteria for high-grade gliomas (Wen P., Macdonald, D R., Reardon, D A., et al. Updated response assessment criteria for highgrade gliomas: Response assessment in neuro-oncology working group. J Clin Oncol 2010; 28: 1963-1972). Primary modifications to the RANO criteria for Criteria for Time Point Responses (TPR) can include the addition of operational conventions for defining changes in glucocorticoid dose, and the removal of subjects' clinical deterioration component to focus on objective radiologic assessments. The baseline MRI scan is defined as the assessment performed at the end of the post-surgery rest period, prior to re-initiating compound treatment. The baseline MRI is used as the reference for assessing complete response (CR) and partial response (PR). Whereas, the smallest SPD (sum of the products of perpendicular diameters) obtained either at baseline or at subsequent assessments will be designated the nadir assessment and utilized as the reference for determining progression. For the 5 days preceding any protocol-defined MRI scan, subjects receive either no glucocorticoids or are on a stable dose of glucocorticoids. A stable dose is defined as the same daily dose for the 5 consecutive days preceding the MRI scan. If the prescribed glucocorticoid dose is changed in the 5 days before the baseline scan, a new baseline scan is required with glucocorticoid use meeting the criteria described above. The following definitions will be used.
Measurable Lesions: Measurable lesions are contrast-enhancing lesions that can be measured bidimensionally. A measurement is made of the maximal enhancing tumor diameter (also known as the longest diameter, LD). The greatest perpendicular diameter is measured on the same image. The cross hairs of bidimensional measurements should cross and the product of these diameters will be calculated.
Minimal Diameter: T1-weighted image in which the sections are 5 mm with 1 mm skip. The minimal LD of a measurable lesion is set as 5 mm by 5 mm. Larger diameters may be required for inclusion and/or designation as target lesions. After baseline, target lesions that become smaller than the minimum requirement for measurement or become no longer amenable to bidimensional measurement will be recorded at the default value of 5 mm for each diameter below 5 mm. Lesions that disappear will be recorded as 0 mm by 0 mm.
Multicentric Lesions: Lesions that are considered multicentric (as opposed to continuous) are lesions where there is normal intervening brain tissue between the two (or more) lesions. For multicentric lesions that are discrete foci of enhancement, the approach is to separately measure each enhancing lesion that meets the inclusion criteria. If there is no normal brain tissue between two (or more) lesions, they will be considered the same lesion.
Nonmeasurable Lesions: All lesions that do not meet the criteria for measurable disease as defined above will be considered non-measurable lesions, as well as all nonenhancing and other truly nonmeasurable lesions. Nonmeasurable lesions include foci of enhancement that are less than the specified smallest diameter (ie., less than 5 mm by 5 mm), nonenhancing lesions (eg., as seen on T1-weighted post-contrast, T2-weighted, or fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) images), hemorrhagic or predominantly cystic or necrotic lesions, and leptomeningeal tumor. Hemorrhagic lesions often have intrinsic T1-weighted hyperintensity that could be misinterpreted as enhancing tumor, and for this reason, the pre-contrast T1-weighted image may be examined to exclude baseline or interval sub-acute hemorrhage.
At baseline, lesions will be classified as follows: Target lesions: Up to measurable lesions can be selected as target lesions with each measuring at least 10 mm by mm, representative of the subject's disease; Non-target lesions: All other lesions, including all nonmeasurable lesions (including mass effects and T2/FLAIR findings) and any measurable lesion not selected as a target lesion. At baseline, target lesions are to be measured as described in the definition for measurable lesions and the SPD of all target lesions is to be determined. The presence of all other lesions is to be documented. At all post-treatment evaluations, the baseline classification of lesions as target and non-target lesions will be maintained and lesions will be documented and described in a consistent fashion over time (eg., recorded in the same order on source documents and eCRFs). All measurable and nonmeasurable lesions must be assessed using the same technique as at baseline (e.g., subjects should be imaged on the same MRI scanner or at least with the same magnet strength) for the duration of the study to reduce difficulties in interpreting changes. At each evaluation, target lesions will be measured and the SPD calculated. Non-target lesions will be assessed qualitatively and new lesions, if any, will be documented separately. At each evaluation, a time point response will be determined for target lesions, non-target lesions, and new lesion. Tumor progression can be established even if only a subset of lesions is assessed. However, unless progression is observed, objective status (stable disease, PR or CR) can only be determined when all lesions are assessed.
Confirmation assessments for overall time point responses of CR and PR will be performed at the next scheduled assessment, but confirmation may not occur if scans have an interval of <28 days. Best response, incorporating confirmation requirements, will be derived from the series of time points.

6.1 Solid Form Screen
6.1.1 Characterization Methodology
6.1.1.1 X-Ray Powder Diffraction (XRPD)
All of solid samples generated in the solid form screen were analyzed by XRPD. XRPD analysis was conducted on a Bruker AXS C2 GADDS or Bruker AXS D8 Advance X-ray powder diffractometer.
Certain X-Ray Powder Diffraction patterns were collected on a Bruker AXS C2 GADDS diffractometer using Cu Ka radiation (40 kV, 40 mA), automated XYZ stage, laser video microscope for auto-sample positioning and a HiStar 2-dimensional area detector. X-ray optics consists of a single Göbel multilayer mirror coupled with a pinhole collimator of 0.3 mm. A weekly performance check is carried out using a certified standard NIST 1976 Corundum (flat plate). The beam divergence, i.e. the effective size of the X-ray beam on the sample, was approximately 4 mm. A θ-θ continuous scan mode was employed with a sample-detector distance of 20 cm which gives an effective 20 range of 3.2°-29.7°. Typically the sample would be exposed to the X-ray beam for 120 seconds. The software used for data collection was GADDS for WNT 4.1.16 and the data were analyzed and presented using Diffrac Plus EVA v11.0.0.2 or v13.0.0.2. Ambient conditions: Samples run under ambient conditions were prepared as flat plate specimens using powder as received without grinding. Approximately 1-2 mg of the sample was lightly pressed on a glass slide to obtain a flat surface. Non-ambient conditions: Samples run under non-ambient conditions were mounted on a silicon wafer with heatconducting compound. The sample was then heated to the appropriate temperature at 20° C./min and subsequently held isothermally for 1 minute before data collection was initiated.
Certain X-Ray Powder Diffraction patterns were collected on a Bruker D8 diffractometer using CuKa radiation (40 kV, 40 mA), θ-2 θ goniometer, and divergence of V4 and receiving slits, a Ge monochromator and a Lynxeye detector. The instrument is performance checked using a certified Corundum standard (NIST 1976). The software used for data collection was Diffrac Plus XRD Commander v2.5.0 and the data were analyzed and presented using Diffrac Plus EVA v11.0.0.2 or v13.0.0.2. Samples were run under ambient conditions as flat plate specimens using powder as received. The sample was gently packed into a cavity cut into polished, zero-background (510) silicon wafer. The sample was rotated in its own plane during analysis. The details of the data collection are: Angular range: 2 to 42° 2θ; Step size: 0.05° 2 θ; Collection time: 0.5 s/step.
6.1.1.2 Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC)
Modulated DSC data were collected on a TA Instruments Q2000 equipped with a 50 position auto-sampler. The calibration for thermal capacity was carried out using sapphire and the calibration for energy and temperature was carried out using certified indium. Typically 3-1.5 mg of each sample, in a pin-holed aluminum pan, was heated at 2° C./min from −80° C. to 300° C. A purge of dry nitrogen at 50 mL/min was maintained over the sample. Modulated temperature DSC was carried out using an underlying heating rate of 2° C./min and temperature modulation parameters of ±1.272° C. (amplitude) every 60 seconds (period). The instrument control software was Advantage for Q Series v2.8.0.392 and Thermal Advantage v4.8.3 and the data were analyzed using Universal Analysis v4.4A.
Non-modulated DSC data were collected on a TA Instruments Q2000 equipped with a 50 position auto-sampler. The calibration for thermal capacity was carried out using sapphire and the calibration for energy and temperature was carried out using certified indium. Typically 1 to 5 mg of each sample, in an aluminum pan, was heated at 10° C./min from 20° C. to 300° C. A purge of dry nitrogen at 50 mL/min was maintained over the sample. The instrument control software was Advantage for Q Series v2.8.0.392 and Thermal Advantage v4.8.3 and the data were analyzed using Universal Analysis v4.4A.
6.1.1.3 Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA)
TGA data were collected on a Mettler TGA/SDTA 851e equipped with a 34 position autosampler. The instrument was temperature calibrated using certified indium. Typically 5-15 mg of each sample was loaded onto a pre-weighed aluminum crucible and was heated at 10° C./min from ambient temperature to 350° C. A nitrogen purge at 50 ml/min was maintained over the sample. The instrument control and data analysis software was STARe v9.20.
6.1.1.4 Polar Light Microscopy
Samples were studied on a Leica LM/DM polarized light microscope with a digital video camera for image capture. A small amount of each sample was placed on a glass slide, mounted in immersion oil and covered with a glass slip, the individual particles being separated as well as possible. The sample was viewed with appropriate magnification and partially polarised light, coupled to a X false-colour filter.
6.1.1.5 Gravimetric Vapour Sorption (GVS)
Sorption isotherms were obtained using a SMS DVS Intrinsic moisture sorption analyser, controlled by DVS Intrinsic Control software v1.0.0.30. The sample temperature was maintained at 25° C. by the instrument controls. The humidity was controlled by mixing streams of dry and wet nitrogen, with a total flow rate of 200 mL/min. The relative humidity was measured by a calibrated Rotronic probe (dynamic range of 1.0-100% RH), located near the sample. The weight change, (mass relaxation) of the sample as a function of % RH was constantly monitored by the microbalance (accuracy±0.005 mg). Typically 5-20 mg of sample was placed in a tared mesh stainless steel basket under ambient conditions. The sample was loaded and unloaded at 40% RH and 25° C. (typical room conditions). The standard isotherm was performed at 25° C. at 10% RH intervals over a 0-90% RH range. Data analysis was undertaken in Microsoft Excel using DVS Analysis Suite v6.0.0.7.

The solid form generated from the screen was characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), optical microscopy, and gravimetric vapor sorption (GVS).
6.1.2.1 Equilibration/Slurry and Evaporation
Amorphous Compound A ( ̃10 mg per experiment) was treated with the stated solvent. Solutions were allowed to slowly evaporate at room temperature and the residual solids were analyzed by XRPD. Suspensions were subjected to heat/cool cycles (50° C./room temperature, 8 hour cycle) for 16 hours; the solvent was then allowed to evaporate and the residual solids were analyzed by XRPD.
The results of slurry experiments are summarized in Table 1. All of the solids obtained from filtration of the slurries were confirmed to be Form A by XRPD.

TGA and DSC thermograms of Form A are shown in FIG. 3. Form A was found to lose up to 0.02% volatiles during TGA analysis upon 100° C., which indicates that Form A is unsolvated and anhydrous. Form A exhibited a single melting peak at 199.3° C. (onset).
6.1.3.2 Hygroscopicity
Hygroscopicity of Form A was determined by moisture adsorption and desorption. The moisture sorption/desorption behavior of Form A was determined by DVS and the results are summarized in FIG. 4. Form A showed no significant water uptake (<0.1% w/w) between 0 and 80% relative humidity, which indicates that Form A is not hygroscopic. After undergoing the full adsorption/desorption cycle, the XRPD diffractogram of the sample showed that the material was unchanged from the initial Form A. Based on the characterization results, Form A was found to be an anhydrous and non-hygroscopic crystalline material.

6.3.4 Synthesis of 2H Enriched Compound A
Deuterium-enriched Compound A can be prepared as follows.




Compound 24 can be made using the route above wherein all of the exchangeable protons are replaced with deuterium. Starting with Compound A, the acidic protons can be exchanged in the presence of base (such as sodium tert-butoxide, potassium carbonate and 1,8-diazabicyclo[5,4,0]undec-7-ene) and a deuterium source (such as tert-BuOD, MeOD, EtOD, iPrOD, AcOD, D2O) to give Compound 24. A solvent (such as tetrahydrofuran, dimethylformamide, or dimethylsulfoxide) can be used to facilitate the reaction. The hydrogen isotopes on the alcohol and the secondary amine could be either hydrogen or deuterium depending on the workup. A workup solvent with an exchangeable proton (such as H2O, MeOH or EtOH) will provide 25, while a workup solvent with an exchangeable deuterium (e.g. D2O, MeOD, EtOD) will afford 24.
For example, Compound A (10 g, 25.2 mmol) was treated with K2CO3 (3.48 g, 25.2 mmol) in 20% THF/D2O at 50-60° C. for 15 h.

6.3.5 Synthesis of 2H Enriched Metabolite of Compound A
A deuterium-enriched metabolite of Compound A can be prepared as follows.




Compound 26 can be made using the route above wherein all of the exchangeable protons are replaced with deuterium. Starting with Compound 6, the acidic protons can be exchanged in the presence of base (such as sodium tert-butoxide, potassium carbonate and 1,8-diazabicyclo[5,4,0]undec-7-ene) and a deuterium source (such as tert-BuOD, MeOD, EtOD, iPrOD, AcOD, D2O) to give Compound 26. A solvent (such as tetrahydrofuran, dimethylformamide, or dimethylsulfoxide) can be used to facilitate the reaction. The hydrogen isotopes on the two alcohols and the secondary amine could be either hydrogen or deuterium depending on the workup. A workup solvent with an exchangeable proton (such as H2O, MeOH or EtOH) will provide 27, while a workup solvent with an exchangeable deuterium (e.g. D2O, MeOD, EtOD) will afford 26.

General Method for Tablet Preparation. Tablets were produced at batch size ranging from 0.5 to 2.2 kg. Form A of compound A was first mixed/blended with binders, diluent(s), and/or disintegrant (e.g., lactose monohydrate (NF), croscarmellose sodium (NF), and/or microcrystalline cellulose (NF)) using a Globepharma 4-8′′ Bin Blender. The mixture was then sieved via 18 mesh screen. The sieved mixture was further mixed/blended with a Globepharma 4-8′′ Bin Blender. After lubricant(s) (e.g., stearic acid (NF) and/or magnesium stearate (NF)) were sieved via 30 mesh screen, the lubricant(s) were then added to the mixture. The resulting mixture was then mixed/blended with a Globepharma 4-8′′ Bin Blender. The mixture was then compressed into tablets with a Globepharma Korsch XL 100, and then coated in an Ohara 8′′ pan. The tablets thus produced were evaluated for their powder characteristics, tablet characteristics, drug product photostability/short term stability, and manufacturing process.
Tablet formulations I to VIII of Compound A are summarized in Tables 4 to 11. The process parameters for tablet preparation (blending/compression) are summarized in Tables 12 and 13. It was observed that the tablets of Formulations I to VIII showed discoloration. Picking was observed when compressing Formulations I to IV. The addition of stearic acid in Formulations V to VIII improved lubrication without impacting disintegration and compressibility. Compressibility of Formulation II was not acceptable when replacing lactose by pregelatinized starch and tablet hardness could not exceed 4.1 kp (average). Lactose monohydrate, NF (Fast Flo 316) was used as an alternate diluent and was preferred over lactose anhydrous (Formulation III) for its flowability properties. Both Avicel PH 101 and PH 102 were tested for binding properties (Formulations III and IV). Avicel PH 102's larger particle size, and more spherical particle shape provided better flow than Avicel PH 101.

The batch size of the current 45 mg strength tablet is approx. 10,000 tablets or approximately 3.5 kg (approximately. 20% overage is dispensed to allow for losses during manufacturing).
6.4.2 Development of an Oral Dose Vehicle of 14C Enriched Compound A
A solution was prepared using appropriate amounts of 50:50 (v:v) EtOH:PEG 400, [14C]-Compound A, and Compound A to achieve a final concentration of 28.6 mg/mL. An aliquot of the solution was transferred to a white Size 00 Capsugel® V Caps Plus Hypromellose capsule for dose administration. Preliminary stability data indicated that the in-process bulk solution is stable for at least 48 hours when stored at refrigerated conditions and protected from light.
Compound A drug substance was dissolved in five different solvent combinations of EtOH and PEG 400. The solvent combinations selected were 100% EtOH, 80:20 (v:v) EtOH:PEG 400, 50:50 (v:v) EtOH:PEG 400, 20:80 (v:v) EtOH:PEG 400 and 100% PEG 400. Due to solubility and viscosity issues, the 100% EtOH and 100% PEG 400 formulations were not analyzed.
The 80:20 (v:v) EtOH:PEG 400, 50:50 (v:v) EtOH:PEG 400 and 20:80 (v:v) EtOH:PEG 400 solutions were prepared at a concentration of 28.6 mg/mL and diluted to 257 μg/mL for analysis. These samples were analyzed at T=0 and stored at RTmp/PFL and REF/PFL until analysis at T=72 hours post-preparation.
Solution stability was performed on the final [14C]-Compound A dosing solution to establish stability for at least 48 hours protected from light at refrigerated and room temperature conditions. Following analysis at T=0, T=24 hours and T=48 hours, it was determined that the [14C]-Compound A dosing solution was stable for at least 48 hours protected from light at refrigerated conditions. Degradation was observed at 48 hours for the [14C]-Compound A solution that was stored at room temperature and protected from light.
The final formulation for the [14C]-Compound A dosing solution was developed to deliver a single capsule containing a solution of 20 mg of Compound A with a microtracer of [14C]-Compound A (200 nCi).
The formulation was prepared using 50:50 (v:v) EtOH:PEG 400, [14C]-Compound A, and Compound A drug substance to achieve a final concentration of 28.6 mg/mL. Preliminary stability data indicates that this formulation was stable for at least 48 hours when stored at refrigerated conditions and protected from light.
6.5 Biological Examples
6.5.1 A Phase 1, Open-Label, Randomized, Crossover Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics of Compound A after a Single Oral Dose of Tablet and Capsule Formulations in Healthy Male Adult Subjects
Certain formulations provided herein were evaluated in a Phase 1, open-label, randomized, crossover study. The study had a Screening phase, three Treatment and Sample Collection periods, and a follow-up visit.
Within no more than 21 days (Day −21) and no less than 2 days (Day −2) prior to the start of Period 1, subjects underwent routine screening procedures including physical examination, 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG), assessment of vital signs, clinical laboratory safety tests (serum chemistry, hematology, and urinalysis), serology screen, fasting glucose levels and drug/alcohol screen.
Eligible subjects returned to the study center on Day −1 of Period 1 for baseline assessments. During each study period, subjects were domiciled at the study center from Day −1 through Day 5. Subjects were discharged from the study center on the morning of Day 5 upon satisfactory safety review and completion of study-related procedures.
On Day 1 of Period 1, following an overnight fast of at least 8 hours, subjects were randomized to one of the following 3 sequences to receive Treatment A, B or C (Table 30).

In Treatment A, one 20-mg reference Compound A API-in-capsule was administered orally after at least 8 hour fast with 240 mL of non-carbonated, room temperature water. In Treatment B, one 20-mg tablet of Compound A (Tablet Formulation XIII) was administered under fasted conditions. In Treatment C, four 5-mg tablets of Compound A (Tablet Formulation XIV) were administered under fasted conditions. The 20-mg tablet and four 5-mg tablets were administered orally after at least 8 hour fast with 240 mL of non-carbonated, room temperature water.
The periods were separated by a washout period of at least 7 days (no more than days) from the prior dose to the next dose. In certain instances, a longer washout is acceptable.
For each period, serial blood samples were collected before dosing (zero hour) and at 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours after dosing. Plasma concentrations of Compound A were determined for determining PK parameters, such as AUC0-1, AUC0-∞, Cmax, Tmax, t1/2, CL/F, and Vz/F for Compound A. Plasma PK parameters were calculated using non compartmental methods. Analyses of variance (ANOVA) were performed on the natural log-transformed AUC0-t, AUC0-∞, and Cmax for Compound A. The geometric mean ratios (test/reference) and their 90% confidence intervals were also calculated. For Tmax, non parametric analysis was used to produce median differences.
Blood samples to assess PD were collected at Baseline (Day −1) in Period 1 for all subjects. After randomization, serial PD blood samples were collected only in each period in which Treatment B (20 mg tablet formulation) was administered. Samples were collected prior to dosing (zero hour) and at 1.5, 3, 6, 8, 12, 24, and 48 hours after administration of Treatment B. The samples were used for biomarker analysis which involve measuring levels of pAKT (mTORC2), p4EB-P1, and/or pS6RP (mTORC1); and/or and pAKT (mTORC2) by flow cytometry using whole blood samples and/or other exploratory biomarkers in pre- and post-treatment samples at different time points. The biomarker data were used for exploration of PK-PD relationships.
Safety was monitored throughout the study. Safety evaluations included AE reporting, physical examinations, vital sign measurements, ECGs, and clinical laboratory safety tests. Concomitant medications were assessed and recorded throughout the study from the time informed consent was obtained until the follow-up visit.
All subjects returned to the clinic within 7 to 10 days after the last dose in Period 3 for follow-up safety assessments. In the event that a subject discontinued prematurely from the study, every reasonable effort was made (and documented) to ensure that all procedures and evaluations scheduled for the follow-up visit were performed at time of discontinuation or a follow-up visit was scheduled within 7 to 10 days from the discontinuation day.
Results: The major PK parameters are summarized in Tables 31 and 32 (see FIG. 8 for plasma concentration-time profiles).

Conclusions: Compound A pharmacokinetics are comparable after single dose administration of 20 mg Compound A tablet formulations and API in capsule in healthy adult male subjects.
6.5.2 A Phase 1, Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Metabolism and Excretion of Compound A and the Effect of Food on the Pharmacokinetics of Compound A in Healthy Male Adult Subjects
The primary objectives of this study are: to characterize the biotransformation and excretion of Compound A following a single 20 mg oral dose of Compound A capsule containing a microtracer of [14C]-Compound A solution in healthy male subjects (Part 1) and to evaluate the effect of a high-fat meal on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of Compound A following a single oral 20-mg dose of Compound A tablet (Part 2).
The secondary objectives of this study are to evaluate the tolerability of Compound A after a single 20-mg oral dose of Compound A capsule containing a microtracer of [14C]-Compound A solution in healthy male adult subjects (Part 1), to evaluate the effect of a high-fat meal on the PK of the O-desmethyl metabolite of Compound A following a single 20-mg oral dose of Compound A tablet (Part 2) and to evaluate the tolerability of Compound A after a single 20-mg oral dose of Compound A tablet in healthy male adult subjects (Part 2).
The primary endpoints of Part 1 are: Total [14C]-radioactivity in whole blood, plasma, urine and feces; cumulative excretion of Total [14C]-radioactivity (as fraction of radioactive dose) in urine and feces; total [14C]-radioactivity whole blood-to-plasma ratios; concentration of Compound A and the O-desmethyl metabolite of Compound A in plasma, urine, and feces samples collected up to 14 times from the day prior to dosing to 8 days after dosing; and metabolite characterization and profiling in plasma, urine and fecal samples. Plasma PK parameters for total radioactivity, Compound A and the O-desmethyl metabolite of Compound A (e.g., Cmax, Tmax, AUC0-t, AUC∞, t1/2) will be determined provided sufficient data are available.
The primary endpoints of Part 2 are: Plasma PK parameters (e.g., Cmax, Tmax, AUC0-∞, t1/2) for Compound A and the O-desmethyl metabolite of Compound A under fed and fasted conditions.

Treatment B: A single 20-mg oral dose of Compound A tablet under fasting or fed conditions.






Part 1 design: After screening, subjects (n=6) eligible for participation in the study will return to the study center on Day −1 for baseline assessments. Subjects who continue to be qualified for participation in the study will be enrolled in the study on the morning of Day 1. Subjects will receive Treatment A after fasting overnight for at least 8 hours and will continue fasting (not consume any food) until 4 hours after dosing on the morning of Day 1. Water will be allowed during the fasting period. Subjects will be domiciled at the study center from Day −1 until the morning of Day 8. Subjects will be discharged from the study center on the morning of Day 8 upon satisfactory safety review and completion of study-related procedures.
Serial blood samples (10 mL) will be collected at predose (0 hour) and at 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 6, 12, 24, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 168 hours post dose. Total [14C]-radioactivity will be determined in blood, plasma, urine and feces. Blood-to-plasma ratios will be calculated to determine partitioning for total [14C]-radioactivity. Urine samples will be collected at predose (within 2 hours prior to dose administration) and at the following post dose collection intervals: 0 to 6, 6 to 12, 12 to 24, 24 to 48, 48 to 72, 72 to 96, 96 to 120, 120 to 144, 144 to 168 hours. Total urine volume collected in each interval will be recorded for determination of the fraction of dose excreted in urine. All fecal samples will be collected daily from Day −1 through Day 8 and weight of daily fecal collections will be pooled and recorded.
Part 2 design: Part 2 will be a 2-period crossover study; in Period 1, subjects (n=12) will be randomized to receive either an oral 20 mg dose of Compound A tablet (Treatment B) under fed (n=6) or fasted (n=6) conditions. In Period 2, subjects will receive Treatment B under converse conditions based on treatment assignment in Period 1. After screening, subjects (n=12) eligible for participation in the study will return to the study center on Day −1 for baseline assessments. Subjects who continue to be qualified for participation in the study will be randomized and enrolled in the study on the morning of Day 1. Subjects (n=6) will be enrolled and randomized to receive Treatment B under fed or fasted conditions on the morning of Day 1 after fasting for at least 8 hours. Fed subjects will be served a standard high fat meal breakfast, or its equivalent, that must be consumed within 30 minutes from serving. Dosing must occur 30 minutes (+5 minutes) after serving a subject breakfast. All subjects (fed and fasted) will fast (not to consume any food) until 4 hours post dose. Water will be allowed during the fasting period. Subjects will be domiciled at the study center from Day −1 until the morning of Day 5 of each period. Subjects will be discharged from the study center on the morning of Day 5 upon satisfactory safety review and completion of study-related procedures. Safety and tolerability data will be monitored and collected following each dosing period. Periods 1 and 2 will be separated by a washout period of at least 7 days (no more than 10 days) from prior dose to the next dose. In certain instances, a longer washout may be acceptable if previously agreed to.
Serial blood samples (10 mL) will be collected at predose (0 hour) and at 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 6, 12, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours post dose for the determination of plasma concentrations of Compound A and the O-desmethyl metabolite of Compound A. Safety will be monitored throughout the study; safety evaluations will include AE reporting, physical examinations, vital sign measurements, ECG, and clinical laboratory safety tests. Concomitant medications will be assessed and recorded throughout the study as well. In addition, during the subjects' stay-in-the clinic (i.e., confinement period), fasting plasma glucose levels will be monitored as part of the clinical laboratory safety tests. For Parts 1 and 2, all subjects will return to the clinic within 7 to days after the last dose for follow up safety assessments. In the event that a subject discontinues prematurely from the study, every reasonable effort should be made (and documented) to ensure that all procedures and evaluations scheduled for the follow-up visit are performed at the time of discontinuation or a follow-up visit should be scheduled within 7 to days from the discontinuation day.
Part 1 dosing: Subjects will fast overnight for at least 8 hours prior to Compound A administration. On the morning of Day 1, each subject will be dosed under fasting conditions with a single 20-mg oral dose of Compound A capsule containing microtracer of [14C]-Compound A in an ethanol/polyethylene glycol solution. The exact specific activity, chemical purity and radiochemical purity will be determined prior to dosing. After dosing, subjects will continue to fast until 4 hours after dosing; thereafter, they will be served standard meals and snacks. Dosing time will be recorded in the source documents and CRF. Dosing instruction and calculation for actual dose administered to each subject will be provided at or before study initiation. The actual dose of the [14C]-Compound A microtracer administered to each subject will be calculated based on the measured radioactivity concentration (dpm/g) of the solution in the capsule.
Part 2 dosing: In Part 2, subjects will fast overnight for at least 8 hours prior to Compound A administration. On the morning of Day 1, each subject will receive a 20-mg tablet of Compound A orally. Subjects randomized to receive Compound A under fed conditions will be a served a standard high fat meal (breakfast).
The standard high fat meal or its equivalent must be consumed within minutes of serving. Dosing must occur 30 minutes (+5 minutes) after serving the meal. The tablet will be administered with approximately 240 mL of non-carbonated, room temperature water. After dosing, subjects will continue to fast until 4 hours after dosing.
