Description:
FIELD OF THE INVENTION 
     The present Invention relates to the crystalline forms of a drug compound. To be specific, it relates to the new crystal forms of a benzene sulfonamide thiazole compound, dabrafenib, methods of preparation and use thereof. 
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     Polymorphism is the ability of a solid material to exist in more than one form or crystal structure. Polymorphism may result from different molecular packing and/or molecular conformations of the molecules of a given compound in the crystal lattice. Polymorphic forms of a given compound have different physical properties, such as solubility, stability, thermal property, morphology of crystals, and mechanical property, etc. One or combination of multiple characterization methods may be used to differentiate the different crystal forms of the same compound, such as X-ray powder diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, infrared spectroscopy, raman spectroscopy, and solid-state NMR spectroscopy, etc. 
     New crystalline forms (including anhydrous forms, hydrates and solvates) of the active pharmaceutical ingredients may offer better properties, such as solubility and bioavailability, stability, processability, purification ability. Some new crystalline form may serve as an intermediate crystal form to facilitate solid state transformation to a desired form. Desired new polymorphs can help formulation scientists broaden the choice of crystal forms to optimize the dosage forms. 
     Dabrafenib is a benzene sulfonamide thiazole compound and is a selective BRAF inhibitor. Results of the Phase I/II clinical trials show Dabrafenib has therapeutical activities and an acceptable safety profile in patients with BRAFV600E-mutan melanoma. The chemical name of Dabrafenib is N-[3-[5-(2-aminopyrimidin-4-yl)-2-(tert-butyl)thiazo-4-lyl]-2-fluoro phenyl]-2,6-difluorobenzenesulfonamide; molecular formula: C 23 H 20 F 3 N 5 O 2 S 2 ; formula weight: 519.6; and chemical structural formula as follows: 
     
       
                 
         
             
             
         
      
     
     Patent documents WO2009/137391A2 and U.S. Pat. No. 7,994,185B2 (incorporated into the present application by reference) disclosed identification, preparing process and uses of Dabrafenib. To be specific, example 58a˜c disclosed a number of crystal forms of Dabrafenib and their preparation methods. Wherein, example 58a disclosed a crystal form (hereinafter referred to as the Known Crystal Form 1) and its preparation method. Example 58b and 58c disclosed another crystal form (hereinafter referred to as the Known Crystal Form 2) and its preparation method. Moreover, such patent documents also disclosed that Dabrafenib has the inhibitory effection on one or more Raf-family kinases. The above patent documents mentioned that the Known Crystal Form 1 is crystalline and provided its  1 H-NMR data, XRPD pattern and DSC thermogram; the Known Crystal Form 2 was characterized by Raman, XRPD and DSC/TGA analyses to show it is different from the Known Crystal Form 1, but detailed data was not given. The above patent documents did not mention the stability and the conversion relationship of these two crystal forms. 
     In addition, patent documents WO2012/148588A2 (incorporated into the present application by reference) disclosed a number of crystal forms of Dabrafenib and their preparation methods. Wherein, example 1 disclosed a crystal form (hereinafter referred to as the Known Crystal Form 3) and its preparation method. Furthermore, this patent document provided further characteristic data for the Known Crystal Form 1 and the Known Crystal Form 2 which were previously mentioned in WO2009/137391A2; This patent document provided Raman, XRPD and DSC/TGA analysis data of the Known Crystal Form 1, the Known Crystal Form 2 and the Known Crystal Form 3, but it did not mention the stability and the conversion relationship of these three crystal forms. 
     Patent document US2012/0196886A1 disclosed a pharmaceutical composition containing Dabrafenib methanesulfonate and use thereof. 
     In the present research, it was discovered that the Known Crystal Form 1 has the following defects: as an anhydrate, it has about 1.9% of weight change between 20˜80% RH, indicating some hygroscopicity; and it readily converts to other form(s) in water or other water containing system(s), thus unable to maintain its original form. 
     In the present research, it was discovered that the Known Crystal Form 2 has the following defects: it is unstable; it would convert to other form(s) when exposed to water or other water containing system(s), thus unable to maintain the original form; and after stirring in dichloromethane followed by filtering and drying, it can convert to the Known Crystal Form 1. 
     In the present research, it was discovered that the Known Crystal Form 3 has the following defects: It is very unstable; it can convert to the Known Crystal Form 1 at room temperature; and it may convert to other form(s) in water or other water containing system(s), thus unable to maintain the original form. 
     Therefore, there is a need to discover new crystal forms of Dabrafenib with good purity, improved thermodynamical stability at room temperature or in water, and/or little mass change under high humidity conditions, etc., to meet the strict demands for crystal properties in industrial production of pharmaceutical formulations.

     Non-restrictively, measured using Cu—Kα radiation, Crystal Form VIIb is characterized by a X-ray powder diffraction pattern substantially as shown in  FIG. 20 . 
     Crystal Form VIIb may be prepared by the following method: Adding methyl cyclohexane into the butanone solution of a known crystal form or an amorphous form of Dabrafenib, stirring to crystallize, and then separating the precipitated crystals without drying to get Crystal Form VIIb; 
     Preferably, the known crystal form of Dabrafenib is the Known Crystal Form 2 of Dabrafenib;

     By providing the new Crystal Form III, Crystal Form IV, Crystal Form V, Crystal Form VIII, Crystal Form Ie, Crystal Form VIIb or Crystal Form VIIIa of Dabrafenib in the present invention, the problems of crystal forms in the prior art have been solved. Each new crystal form has at least one of the following beneficial properties: better thermal stability, good morphology, low hygroscopicity, better flowability, better apparent density and better storage stability. 
     In the preparation methods of Crystal Form VI, Crystal Form VII, Crystal Form III, Crystal Form IV, Crystal Form V, Crystal Form VIII, Crystal Form Ie, Crystal Form VIIb and Crystal Form VIIIa in the present invention: 
     The mentioned “the Known Crystal Form of Dabrafenib” includes but not limited to the Known Crystal Form 1, the Known Crystal Form 2, the Known Crystal Form 3 of Dabrafenib or their mixtures. 
     The mentioned “Room Temperature” refers to 15˜25° C. 
     The mentioned “Stirring” is accomplished with the routine methods in this field, such as magnetic stirring or mechanical stirring; the stirring speed is 50˜1,800 rpm, and preferably, 300˜900 rpm. 
     The mentioned “Separating” is accomplished with the routine methods in this field, such as centrifugation or filtration. The operation of “centrifugation” is as follows: place the sample to be separated in the centrifugal tube and centrifugate it at 6,000 rpm until all the solids settle down on the bottom of the centrifugal tube. “Filtration” generally refers to the suction filtration at the pressure less than the atmospheric pressure; and the preferable pressure is less than 0.09 MPa. 
     Unless otherwise specified, the mentioned “Drying” may be conducted at room temperature or higher temperature. The drying temperature is room temperature to about 60° C., or to 40° C., or to 50° C. The drying time may be 2˜48 hours, or overnight. “Drying” may be conducted in a fume hood, a blast drying oven or a vacuum drying oven. 
     The mentioned “Sealed Atmosphere” is operated as follows: place a small uncovered 20 mL-vial filled with the prepared solution into a 100 mL sealed glass bottle which was prefilled with 10˜30 mL diffusive solvent, after the diffusive solvent diffused for 1˜3 weeks into the vial, separate the precipitated solids. 
     In the present invention, “Crystal” or “Crystal Form” refers to the crystal or the crystal form being identified by the X-ray diffraction pattern shown herein. The scientists in this field are able to understand that physical and chemical properties discussed herein can be characterized, wherein the experimental errors depend on the conditions of instruments, the sample preparations and the purity of samples. In particular, the scientists in this field generally know that the X-ray diffraction pattern usually may change with the change of the experimental conditions. It is necessary to point out that, the relative intensity of the X-ray diffraction pattern is likely to change with the change of the experimental conditions; therefore, the sequence of peak intensity cannot be regarded as the only or the determining factor. Moreover, generally, the experimental errors of the peak angles are 5% or less, so such errors shall be considered and generally the allowed errors are ±0.2° 2θ. In addition, due to the effect of the experimental factors including sample height, peak angles may have an overall shifting; generally, certain shifting is allowed. Hence, the scientists in this field may understand that, it is unnecessary that the X-ray diffraction pattern of a crystal form in the present invention should be exactly the same with X-ray diffraction patterns of the example shown herein. Any crystal forms whose X-ray diffraction pattern have the same or similar characteristic peaks should be within the scope of the present invention. The scientists in this field can compare the patterns shown in the present invention with that of an unknown crystal form in order to identify whether these two groups of patterns reflect the same or different crystal forms. 
     “Crystal Form” and “Polymorphic Form” as well as other related terms in the present invention refer to the solid compounds whose crystal structure is being in a special crystal form state. The difference in the physical and chemical properties of the polymorphic forms may be embodied in storage stability, compressibility, density, dissolution rate, etc. In extreme cases, the difference in solubility or dissolution rate may result in inefficient drugs, even developing toxicitys. 
     Unless otherwise specified, the “Anhydrate” mentioned in the present invention refers to the crystal form with its water content no more than 1.5% (weight ratio) or 1.0% (weight ratio) measured by TGA. 
     In some embodiments, the new crystal forms in the present invention, including Crystal Forms VI, VII, III, IV, V, VIII, Ie, VIIb and VIIIa, are pure, substantially not contaminated with any other crystal forms. In particular, Crystal Forms VI and VII are substantially not contaminated with any other crystal forms. In the present invention, when used to refer to the new crystal form, “substantially not” means that the crystal form contains less than 20% (weight) of the other crystal forms; further, less than 10% (weight); furthermore, less than 5% (weight); and the furthest, less than 1% (weight). 
     Generally, Crystal Forms VI, VII, III, IV, V, VIII, Ie, VIIb and VIIIa substantially do not contain either the Known Crystal Form 1, or the Known Crystal Form 2 or the Known Crystal Form 3; in particular, these crystal forms have no characteristic peaks of the Known Crystal Form 1 at 9.5±0.2°, 10.1±0.2°, 12.7±0.2°, 16.1±0.20 and 19.0±0.20, and have no characteristic peaks of the Known Crystal Form 2 at 7.9±0.2°, 13.6±0.2°, 14.6±0.2°, 15.8±0.2°, 20.3±0.2° and 21.9±0.2°, and have no characteristic peaks of the Known Crystal Form 3 at 12.2±0.2°, 12.8˜0.2°, 15.9±0.2°, 21.3±0.20 and 24.9±0.2°. 
     The polymorphic forms of drugs may be obtained by the methods including but not limited to the following: melting and recrystallization, melting and cooling, solvent recrystallization, desolvation, rapid volatilization, rapid cooling, slow cooling, vapor diffusion and sublimation. The polymorphic form may be tested, discovered and classified via X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), optical microscopy, hygroscopicity, etc. 
     The crystallization methods for the crystal forms of the present invention include evaporation at room temperature, slurry, cooling and recrystallization, diffusion and anti-solvent recrystallization. 
     Evaporation at room temperature means, for example, putting the clear solution of the sample into an uncovered 5 mL-vial and evaporate at room temperature, with or without nitrogen purge. 
     Slurry means, for example, stirring the over-saturated solution (with the presence of insoluble solids) of the sample in a solvent system to crystallize, generally for 2 hours˜2 weeks. 
     Cooling and recrystallization means, for example, under certain high temperature conditions, dissolving the sample in suitable solvent(s), putting the solution into a 5 mL-vial, placing the vial in a temperature-variable shaker, then cooling it in turn at certain cooling rate and stirring overnight. The experimental temperature may be 75˜0° C. and preferably 50˜15° C. At each specific temperature, the sample solution is kept warm for 2 hours˜2 days. 
     Diffusion means, for example, dissolving the sample in a good solvent and then placing the solution in a sealed atmosphere full of the volatile solvent to recrystallize. 
     Anti-solvent recrystallization means, for example, dissolving the sample in a good solvent, adding an appropriate amount of anti-solvent, and then stirring to recrystallize.

     Experimental Example 1 
     Take Crystal Form VI of the present invention prepared by Example 1, Crystal Form VII of the present invention prepared by Example 43, the Known Crystal Form 1 prepared by Preparation Example 1 and the Known Crystal Form 2 prepared by Preparation Example 2, and compare them in stability, hygroscopicity and morphology. As the Known Crystal Form 3 is extremely unstable and converts to the Known Crystal Form 1 when placed at room temperature, it is not used for comparison. 
     The stability is compared by the storage stability and the competition test. 
     The storage stability test is: storing the sample under constant conditions (i.e. constant humidity or constant temperature) for a certain time, and then comparing the XRPDs before and after storing. 
     The competition test is: take equal amount of the samples, and respectively place them in isopropanol or in a mixture of water (pure water) and ethanol (wherein the volume percentage of ethanol is 0%, 20%, 50%, 80% and 100%, respectively) to form a suspension, stir it overnight at room temperature, then compare their XRPDs. 
     The hygroscopicity is obtained by DVS testing of the weight changes between 20%-80% RH. 
     The morphology comparison is obtained by PLM testing of particle shape and PSD testing of particle size. 
     The results are shown in the following Table 1.

     The steps to prepare the tablet are as follows: 
     (1) Blend API (selected from the Known Crystal Form 1, the Known Crystal Form 2 or Crystal Form VI of the present invention), lactose (monohydrate) and microcrystalline cellulose uniformly. 
     (2) Make the above mixture into soft materials by using an appropriate amount of 50% aqueous ethanol solution, screen to produce the wet granules and then dry the wet granules. 
     (3) Granulate the dried sample, blend with polyethylene glycol 6000 uniformly and then compress into tablets. 
     Respectively, take XRPD tests on the following samples obtained in the formulation preparing process of the Known Crystal Form 1, the Known Crystal Form 2 and Crystal Form VI of the present invention: (Sample 1) the sample obtained by physically blending API, lactose, microcrystalline cellulose with polyethylene glycol 6000 according to the preparation formula; (Sample 2) the sample obtained by granulating with API, lactose, microcrystalline cellulose and polyethylene glycol 6000 according to the “wet granulation” process (excluding the sample obtained after the Step (3)); (Sample 3) excluding API, the sample obtained by physically blending lactose, microcrystalline cellulose with polyethylene glycol 6000 according to the preparation formula. The XRPD patterns of Samples 1-3 are shown in  FIGS. 28-30 . 
     According to  FIG. 29  and  FIG. 30 , it is shown that in respect of the Known Crystal Form 1 or the Known Crystal Form 2 as API, the comparison of XRPD patterns of its Sample 1 and its Sample 3 shows that the crystal form of API keeps unchanged after API is physically blended with the excipients; however, the comparison of XRPD patterns of its Sample 2 and its Sample 1 shows that API in Sample 2 has partially or totally converted to Crystal Form VI of the present invention, which indicates that the Known Crystal Form 1 and the Known Crystal Form 2 are unstable in the wet granulation process and convert to the more stable Crystal Form VI of the present invention. 
     According to  FIG. 28 , it is shown that in respect of Crystal Form VI of the present invention as API, the comparison of XRPD patterns of its Sample 1 and its Sample 3 shows that the crystal form of API keeps unchanged after API is physically blended with the excipients; the consistency of XRPD patterns of its Sample 1 and its Sample 2 shows that Crystal Form VI of the present invention is stable in the wet granulation process. 
     It is also discovered that Crystal Form VI of the present invention is stable after tableting. 
     Therefore, Crystal Form VI of the present invention is more stable than the Known Crystal Form 1 and the Known Crystal Form 2 in the wet granulation process of tableting, and it is also stable after tableting. It has good preparation processing adaptability and thus it is the advantageous crystal form. 
     It is also discovered that the tablet containing Crystal Form VI prepared by the wet granulation process is still stable even if it is stored for 6 months at 40° C./75% RH.

     The steps to prepare the capsules are as follows: 
     1) Appropriately/according to the actual demand, separate the 0 #  hard capsules into a top and a bottom half, and mark/identify each half. 
     2) Place the bottom half into a capsule filling machine and make sure the filling funnel being on the top. 
     3) Blend API (selected from the Known Crystal Form 1, the Known Crystal Form 2 and Crystal Form VI of the present invention), microcrystalline cellulose (avicel) and sodium carboxymethyl starch (SSG) uniformly. 
     4) Make the above mixture into soft materials by using an appropriate amount of 50% aqueous ethanol solution, then screen to produce the wet granules. 
     5) Dry the wet granules, grind and disperse uniformly and then transfer them into the capsules. 
     6) Place the top half on the capsule, close the capsule until finally close tightly; then tap the capsules in order to blend/disperse the ingredients. 
     7) If the powder is near the top of the capsules at the beginning, slightly knock the capsule to settle down the powders. 
     8) Place such capsules in a small bottle marked appropriately (which should be large enough to move easily). 
     The XRPD test shows that, when the capsules use the Known Crystal Form 1 and the Known Crystal Form 2 as API and are prepared by the wet granulation process with water as the wetting agent, the crystal form in such capsules is unstable and has converted to Crystal Form VI of the present invention; when the capsules use Crystal Form VI of the present invention as API and are prepared by the wet granulation process with water as the wetting agent, the crystal form in such capsule is stable and still stable even if it is stored for 6 months at 40° C./75% RH.
