Also disclosed herein are methods of making crystalline solid forms of the 19-nor C3,3disubstituted C21-pyrazolyl steroid of Formula (I) and methods of using the 19-nor C3,3-disubstituted C21-pyrazolyl steroid of Formula (I) or crystalline solid forms, pharmaceutically acceptable salts, and pharmaceutically acceptable compositions thereof.

Description

This application claims priority to U.S.S.N. 62/378,582 filed August 23, 2016, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Brain excitability is defined as the level of arousal of an animal, a continuum that ranges from coma to convulsions, and is regulated by various neurotransmitters. In general, neurotransmitters are responsible for regulating the conductance of ions across neuronal membranes. At rest, the neuronal membrane possesses a potential (or membrane voltage) of approximately -70 mV, the cell interior being négative with respect to the cell exterior. The potential (voltage) is the resuit of ion (K+, Na+, CI, organic anions) balance across the neuronal semipermeable membrane.
Neurotransmitters are stored in presynaptic vesicles and are released under the influence of neuronal action potentials. When released into the synaptic cleft, an excitatory Chemical transmitter such as acétylcholine will cause membrane depolarization (change of potential from -70 mV to -50 mV). This effect is mediated by postsynaptic nicotinic receptors which are stimulated by acétylcholine to increase membrane permeability to Na+ ions. The reduced membrane potential stimulâtes neuronal excitability in the form of a postsynaptic action potential.
In the case ofthe y-aminobutyric acid receptor complex (GRC), the effect on brain excitability is mediated by γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), a neurotransmitter. GABA has a profound influence on overall brain excitability because up to 40% of the neurons in the brain utilize GABA as a neurotransmitter. GABA régulâtes the excitability of individual neurons by regulating the conductance of chloride ions across the neuronal membrane. GABA interacts with its récognition site on the GRC to facilitate the flow of chloride ions down an electrochemical gradient ofthe GRC into the cell. An intracellular increase in the levels of this anion causes hyperpolarization ofthe transmembrane potential, rendering the neuron less susceptible to excitatory inputs (i.e., reduced neuron excitability). In other words, the higher the chloride ion concentration in the neuron, the lower the brain excitability (the level of arousal).
New and improved neuroactive crystalline forms of steroids are needed that act as modulating agents for brain excitability, as well as agents for the prévention and treatment of CNS-related diseases. Crystalline forms of such a steroid described herein are directed toward this end.

Form A can be prepared by stirring crude Compound 1 as a slurry in ethyl acetate below 10°C and then filtering and drying under vacuum or by dissolving crude Compound 1 in dichloromethane and then re15 concentrating the solution twice with ethyl acetate under vacuum to dryness. Form A can be determined to be a crystalline form of Compound 1 by XRPD. TGA, together with single-crystal structure of Form A, can be used to conclude that Form A is anhydrous. DSC can be used to indicate the presence of two endotherms occurring at températures below 300 °C: one endotherm with a Ton5ef of 157.2 °C that represents the transformation of Form A into Form K, and another with a Tonset of 203.8 °C that represents the melting point of Form K. DVS can be used to demonstrate that Form A exhibits less than 0.30 weight percent water uptake at a relative humidity (RH) less than or equal to 95%.
In some embodiments, Form A can hâve an XRPD pattern substantially as depicted in FIG. IA. Additionally, représentative peaks from the XRPD pattern of Form A can be indicated by their values of 20, d-spacing, and relative intensities as, for example, in Table 2 below:

Form L
Form L can be prepared by storing Form B in a sealed vial at ambient conditions for one month. This form can be determined to be a crystalline metastable form of Compound 1. Analysis with XRPD can indicate that Form L transforms to a mixture of Form B and Form M at ambient conditions 3 days after préparation. Form L was determined to be a solvaté of Compound 1.
Form M
Form M can be made by storing Form B in a sealed vial at ambient conditions for one month. The analyzed sample of this form was determined to hâve low crystallinity by analysis with XRPD.
Form N
Form N can be prepared from a reverse anti-solvent addition crystallization technique in 1,4dioxane/n-heptane and determined to be a crystalline form of Compound 1 by XRPD. TGA can be used to détermine that Form N is a solvaté that exhibits a weight loss of 2.5% up to 60 -C, followed by a weight loss of 7.1% up to 200 ^C. DSC can be used to demonstrate two endotherms, one corresponding to the loss of solvent at a Tonset of 75.4 °C and the other at a Tonset of 210.4 °C, which represents the melting point of Form K. VT-XRPD can be used to confirm that Form N transforms to Form K at 100 °C. Based on 1H NMR spectroscopy, Form N is a 1,4-dioxane solvaté with a molar ratio of 1:0.3 for Compound l:l,4-dioxane.
Form O
Form O can be prepared using a water activity experiment in a water/acetonitrile mixture (0.041 water:0.959 acetonitrile volume/volume; aw=0.6) at room température and determined to be a crystalline form of Compound 1 by XRPD. TGA on a sample of Form O can indicate weight loss of 5.3% up to 55.1 eC, followed by 5.9% up to 200 eC. DSC can be used to show that Form O exhibits three endotherms, one at Tonset = 65.0 °C corresponding to the loss of solvent to create Form C, one at Το,,.;^ = 168.5 °C corresponding to transformation to Form C to Form K, and one at Ton5et = 210.8 °C corresponding to melting of Form K. Form O can be further characterized by 1H NMR spectroscopy dissolved in DMSO-d6.
Form P
In addition the above-described forms, Form P is an ethyl acetate (EtOAc) solvaté of Compound 1 and can be detected in (a) slurries of Form A in EtOAc at 5 °C (after 1 h) and 20 °C (after 2 days), (b) slurries of Form C in EtOAc at 5 °C (after 1 h) and 20 °C (after 7 days). The wet cake of Form P (~5 min air) can be dried in two ways: (a) under air at room température overnight, and (b) under vacuum at 40 °C for 3 hours. Both dried cakes can be analyzed by XRPD, 1H-NMR, and TGA. An air dried cake of Form P can give an XRPD pattern conforming to Form P, about 1% weight loss by TGA up to about 50 °C, and EtOAc peaks by 1H NMR. The sample of Form P post-oven drying, on the other hand, can give an XRPD pattern conforming to Form A, no weight loss < 100 °C by TGA, and no EtOAc peaks by ^-NMR. Therefore, Form P can convert to Form A upon drying.
In another aspect, the présent invention provides a method for transforming a solid form of Compound 1 or mixture of solid forms of Compound 1 to a different anhydrate of Compound 1. In one embodiment, Form A, a mixture of Form A or Form K, or a mixture of Form A, Form C, and Form K can be converted to Form C through slurry conversion in ethyl acetate, n-butanol, or methyl tertbutyl ether at room température or elevated températures, e.g., 50°C or 65°C. In these 3 solvent Systems, Form C is the only form remaining after slurry conversion, revealing that this solid form was more thermodynamically stable from room température to 50 5C when compared to Form A and Form K. In another embodiment, From C can be obtained through crystallization of solubilized Compound 1 (originally Form A) in ethyl acetate at an elevated température, e.g., 65 °C, in the presence of a small amount, e.g. 0.2%-1.0%, of seed crystals of Form C, followed by cooling the batch to a température no less than 25 °C to 30 °C. Seed crystals of Form C can be made using the procedure described in Example 4 described herein.

In certain embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition comprises an effective amount of the active ingrédient. In certain embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition comprises a therapeutically effective amount of the active ingrédient. In certain embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition comprises a prophylactically effective amount of the active ingrédient.

Generally, the solid forms of Compound 1 provided herein are administered in an effective amount. The amount of the solid forms of Compound 1 compound actually administered will typically be determined by a physician, in the light of the relevant circumstances, including the condition to be treated, the chosen route of administration, the actual compound administered, the âge, weight, and response of the individual patient, the severity of the patient’s symptoms, and the like.
When used to prevent the onset of a CNS-disorder, the solid forms of Compound 1 provided herein will be administered to a subject at risk for developing the condition, typically on the advice and under the supervision of a physician, at the dosage levels described above. Subjects at risk for developing a particular condition generally include those that hâve a family history of the condition, or those who hâve been identified by genetic testing or screening to be particularly susceptible to developing the condition.
The pharmaceutical compositions provided herein can also be administered chronically (chronic administration).

Clinical tremor can be classified into physiologie tremor, enhanced physiologie tremor, essential tremor syndromes (including classical essential tremor, primary orthostatic tremor, and task- and position-specific tremor), dystonie tremor, parkinsonian tremor, cerebellar tremor, Holmes’ tremor (i.e., rubral tremor), palatal tremor, neuropathie tremor, toxic or drug-induced tremor, and psychogenic tremor. Tremor is an involuntary, at times rhythmic, muscle contraction and relaxation that can involve oscillations or twitching of one or more body parts (e.g., hands, arms, eyes, face, head, vocal folds, trunk, legs).
Cerebellar tremor or intention tremor is a slow, broad tremor of the extremities that occurs after a purposeful movement. Cerebellar tremor is caused by lésions in or damage to the cerebellum resulting from, e.g., tumor, stroke, disease (e.g., multiple sclerosis, an inherited degenerative disorder).
Dystonie tremor occurs in individuals affected by dystonia, a movement disorder in which sustained involuntary muscle contractions cause twisting and répétitive motions and/or painful and abnormal postures or positions. Dystonie tremor may affect any muscle in the body. Dystonie tremors occurs irregularly and often can be relieved by complété rest.
Essential tremor or benign essential tremor is the most common type of tremor. Essential tremor may be mild and nonprogressive in some, and may be slowly progressive, starting on 29 one side of the body but affect both sides within 3 years. The hands are most often affected, but the head, voice, tongue, legs, and trunk may also be involved. Tremor frequency may decrease as the person âges, but severity may increase. Heightened émotion, stress, fever, physical exhaustion, or low blood sugar may trigger tremors and/or increase their severity. Symptoms generally evolve over time and can be both visible and persistent following onset. Orthostatic tremor is characterized by fast (e.g., greater than 12 Hz) rhythmic muscle contractions that occurs in the legs and trunk immediately after standing. Cramps are felt in the thighs and legs and the patient may shake uncontrollably when asked to stand in one spot. Orthostatic tremor may occurs in patients with essential tremor.
Parkinsonian tremor is caused by damage to structures within the brain that control movement. Parkinsonian tremor is often a precursor to Parkinson’s disease and is typically seen as a “pill-rolling” action of the hands that may also affect the chin, lips, legs, and trunk. Onset of parkinsonian tremor typically begins after âge 60. Movement starts in one limb or on one side of the body and can progress to include the other side.
Physiological tremor can occur in normal individuals and hâve no clinical significance. It can be seen in ail voluntary muscle groups. Physiological tremor can be caused by certain drugs, alcohol withdrawl, or medical conditions including an overactive thyroid and hypoglycemia. The tremor classically has a frequency of about 10 Hz.
Psychogenic tremor or hysterical tremor can occur at rest or during postural or kinetic movement. Patient with psychogenic tremor may hâve a conversion disorder or another psychiatrie disease.
Rubral tremor is characterized by coarse slow tremor which can be présent at rest, at posture, and with intention. The tremor is associated with conditions that affect the red nucléus in the midbrain, classical unusual strokes.
Parkinson’s Disease affects nerve cells in the brain that produce dopamine. Symptoms include muscle rigidity, tremors, and changes in speech and gait. Parkinsonism is characterized by tremor, bradykinesia, rigidity, and postural instability. Parkinsonism shares symptons found in Parkinson’s Disease, but is a symptom complex rather than a progressive neurodegenerative disease.
Dystonia is a movement disorder characterized by sustained or intermittent muscle contractions causing abnormal, often répétitive movements or postures. Dystonie movements can be patterned, twisting, and may be tremulous. Dystonia is often initiated or worsened by voluntary action and associated with overflow muscle activation.
Chorea is a neurological disorder characterized by jerky involuntary movements typically affecting the shoulders, hips, and face. Huntington’s Disease is an inherited disease that 30 causes nerve cells in the brain to waste away. Symptoms include uncontrolled movements, clumsiness, and balance problems. Huntington’s disease can hinder walk, talk, and swallowing.
Ataxia refers to the loss of full control of bodily movements, and may affect the fmgers, hands, arms, legs, body, speech, and eye movements.
Myloclonus and Startle is a response to a sudden and unexpected stimulus, which can be acoustic, tactile, visual, or vestibular.
Tics are an involuntary movement usually onset suddenly, brief, répétitive, but nonrhythmical, typically imitating normal behavior and often occurring out of a background of normal activity. Tics can be classified as motor or vocal, motor tics associated with movements while vocal tics associated with sound. Tics can be characterized as simple or complex. For example simple motor tics involve only a few muscles restricted to a spécifie body part.
Tourette Syndrome is an inherited neuropsychiatrie disorder with onset in childhood, characterized by multiple motor tics and at least one vocal tic.
Restless Legs Syndrome is a neurologie sensorimotor disorder characterized by an overwhelming urge to move the legs when at rest.
Stiff Person Syndrome is a progressive movement disorder characterized by involuntary painful spasms and rigidity of muscles, usually involving the lower back and legs. Stifflegged gait with exaggerated lumbar hyperlordosis typically results. Characteristic abnormality on EMG recordings with continuous motor unit activity of the paraspinal axial muscles is typically observed. Variants include “stiff-limb syndrome” producing focal stiffness typically affecting distal legs and feet.
Gait disorders refer to an abnormalitiy in the manner or style of walking, which results from neuromuscular, arthritic, or other body changes. Gait is classified according to the system responsible for abnormal locomotion, and include hémiplégie gait, diplegic gait, neuropathie gait, myopathie gait, parkinsonian gait, choreiform gait, ataxie gait, and sensory gait.

Anxiety Disorders
Provided herein are methods for treating anxiety disorders (e.g., generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, phobia, post-traumatic stress disorder).
Anxiety disorder is a blanket term covering several different forms of abnormal and pathological fear and anxiety. Current psychiatrie diagnostic criteria recognize a wide variety of anxiety disorders.
Generalized anxiety disorder is a common chronic disorder characterized by long-lasting anxiety that is not focused on any one object or situation. Those suffering from generalized anxiety expérience non-specifîc persistent fear and worry and become overly concemed with everyday matters. Generalized anxiety disorder is the most common anxiety disorder to affect older adults.
In panic disorder, a person suffers from brief attacks of intense terror and appréhension, often marked by trembling, shaking, confusion, dizziness, nausea, difficulty breathing. These panic attacks, defined by the APA as fear or discomfort that abruptly arises and peaks in less than ten minutes, can last for several hours and can be triggered by stress, fear, or even exercise; although the spécifie cause is not always apparent. In addition to récurrent unexpected panic attacks, a diagnosis of panic disorder also requires that said attacks hâve chronic conséquences: either worry over the attacks' potential implications, persistent fear of friture attacks, or significant changes in behavior related to the attacks. Accordingly, those suffering from panic disorder expérience symptoms even outside of spécifie panic épisodes. Often, normal changes in heartbeat are noticed by a panic sufferer, leading them to think something is wrong with their heart or they are about to hâve another panic attack. In some cases, a heightened awareness (hypervigilance) of body functioning occurs during panic attacks, wherein any perceived physiological change is interpreted as a possible life threatening illness (i.e. extreme hypochondriasis).
Obsessive compulsive disorder is a type of anxiety disorder primarily characterized by répétitive obsessions (distressing, persistent, and intrusive thoughts or images) and compulsions (urges to perform spécifie acts or rituals). The OCD thought pattern may be likened to superstitions insofar as it involves a belief in a causative relationship where, in reality, one does not exist. Often the process is entirely illogical; for example, the compulsion of walking in a certain pattern may be employed to alleviate the obsession of impending harm. And in many cases, the compulsion is entirely inexplicable, simply an urge to complété a ritual triggered by nervousness. In a minority of cases, sufferers of OCD may only expérience obsessions, with no overt compulsions; a much smaller number of sufferers expérience only compulsions.
The single largest category of anxiety disorders is that of phobia, which includes all cases in which fear and anxiety is triggered by a spécifie stimulus or situation. Sufferers typically anticipate terrifying conséquences from encountering the object of their fear, which can be anything from an animal to a location to a bodily fluid.
Post-traumatic stress disorder or PTSD is an anxiety disorder which results from a traumatic expérience. Post-traumatic stress can resuit from an extreme situation, such as combat, râpe, hostage situations, or even serions accident. It can also resuit from long term (chronic) exposure to a severe stressor, for example soldiers who endure individual battles but cannot cope with continuous combat. Common symptoms include flashbacks, avoidant behaviors, and dépréssion.

Convulsive status epilepticus is characterized by the presence of convulsive status epileptic seizures, and can include early status epilepticus, established status epilepticus, refractory status epilepticus, super-refractory status epilepticus. Early status epilepticus is treated with a first line therapy. Established status epilepticus is characterized by status epileptic seizures which persist despite treatment with a first line therapy, and a second line therapy is administered. Refractory status epilepticus is characterized by status epileptic seizures which persist despite treatment with a first line and a second line therapy, and a general anesthetic is generally administered. Super refractory status epilepticus is characterized by status epileptic seizures which persist despite treatment with a first line therapy, a second line therapy, and a general anesthetic for 24 hours or more. Non-convulsive status epilepticus can include, e.g., focal non-convulsive status epilepticus, e.g., complex partial non-convulsive status epilepticus, simple partial non-convulsive status epilepticus, subtle non-convulsive status epilepticus; generalized non-convulsive status epilepticus, e.g., late onset absence non-convulsive status epilepticus, atypical absence nonconvulsive status epilepticus, or typical absence non-convulsive status epilepticus.
Seizure
N seizure is the physical findings or changes in behavior that occur after an épisode of abnormal electrical activity in the brain. The term “seizure” is often used interchangeably with “convulsion.” Convulsions are when a person’s body shakes rapidly and uncontrollably. During convulsions, the person’s muscles contract and relax repeatedly. Based on the type of behavior and brain activity, seizures are divided into two broad categories: generalized and partial (also called local or focal). Classifying the type of seizure helps doctors diagnose whether or not a patient has epilepsy.
Generalized seizures are produced by electrical impulses from throughout the entire brain, whereas partial seizures are produced (at least initially) by electrical impulses in a relatively small part of the brain. The part of the brain generating the seizures is sometimes called the focus.
There are six types of generalized seizures. The most common and dramatic, and therefore the most well known, is the generalized convulsion, also called the grand-mal seizure. In this type of seizure, the patient loses consciousness and usually collapses. The loss of consciousness is followed by generalized body stiffening (called the tonie phase of the seizure) for 30 to 60 seconds, then by violent jerking (the clonie phase) for 30 to 60 seconds, after which the patient goes into a deep sleep (the postictal or after-seizure phase).
During grand-mal seizures, injuries and accidents may occur, such as tongue biting and urinary incontinence.
Absence seizures cause a short loss of consciousness (just a few seconds) with few or no symptoms. The patient, most often a child, typically interrupts an activity and stares blankly. These seizures begin and end abruptly and may occur several times a day. Patients are usually not aware that they are having a seizure, except that they may be aware of losing time.
Myoclonie seizures consist of sporadic jerks, usually on both sides of the body. Patients sometimes describe the jerks as brief electrical shocks. When violent, these seizures may resuit in dropping or involuntarily throwing objects.
Clonie seizures are répétitive, rhythmic jerks that involve both sides of the body at the same time.
Tonie seizures are characterized by stiffening of the muscles.
Atonie seizures consist of a sudden and general loss of muscle tone, particularly in the arms and legs, which often results in a fall.

EXAMPLES
In order that the invention described herein may be more fully understood, the following examples are set forth. The examples described in this application are offered to illustrate the crystalline solid forms provided herein and are not to be construed in any way as limiting their scope.
Example 1. Préparation of solid Form A.
Form A was prepared by stirring crude Compound 1 as a slurry in ethyl acetate below 10°C and then filtering and drying under vacuum. It was also formed by dissolving crude Compound 1 in dichloromethane and then re-concentrating the solution twice with ethyl acetate under vacuum to dryness.
Example 2. Various wet methods of crystallization to obtain other solid forms ofthe présent invention.
To find new crystalline forms, different crystallization methods were evaluated using Form A as the starting material. In addition to Form A, thirteen crystalline forms (B, C, D, E, F, H, I, J, K, L, Μ, N, and O) were identified with these methods.
Slow évaporation
Slow évaporation crystallization experiments were performed across 8 different solvent Systems. In each experiment approximately 10 mg of Form A was dissolved in 0.4 to 1.0 mL of solvent in a 1.5 mL glass vial. The glass vials were sealed using Parafilm’ pierced with 3 to 5 holes to allow for solvent évaporation.
Slurry conversion
In each experiment, approximately 10 to 20 mg of Form A was suspended in 0.5 mL of a solvent or mixture of solvents. After stirring at RT or 50 °C for 48 hours, the solids were isolated by centrifugation for analysis (wet sample). If the suspensions turned into clear solution, the clear solutions were kept at ambient conditions for slow évaporation.
Anti-solvent addition
In each experiment, approximately 10 mg of Form A was dissolved in 0.1 to 1 mL of each solvent to obtain a clear solution. The anti-solvent was added in incréments of 50 pL until précipitation was observed, or the total volume of anti-solvent reached 20 times that of the solvent volume. The precipitate was then isolated by centrifugation for analysis (wet sample). In the instances that clear solutions were observed, slow évaporation experiments were performed.
Slow-cooling
In each experiment, approximately 10 mg of Form A was suspended in 0.8 to 1.0 mL of each solvent mixture at 50 °C. The resulting suspensions were immediately filtered with a 0.2 pm filter, and the filtrâtes were collected and cooled from 50 °C to 5 °C at a rate of 0.1 °C/min. The précipitâtes were then isolated by centrifugation at 10,000 rpm for 3 to 5 minutes for analysis (wet sample).
Solution vapor diffusion
In each experiment, approximately 10 mg of Form A was dissolved in an appropriate solvent to obtain a clear solution in a 3-mL glass vial. The vial was then placed into a 20-mL glass vial containing 3 mL of the anti-solvent and sealed. The system was kept at RT for 7 days, allowing sufficient time for solid précipitation. The solids were isolated by centrifugation at 10,000 rpm for to 5 minutes and analyzed (wet sample). In the cases where no précipitation was observed, the samples were kept at ambient conditions for slow évaporation.

In each experiment, approximately 10 mg of Form A was placed into a 3-mL glass vial, which was then sealed into a 20-mL glass vial containing 3 mL ofthe spécifie solvent. The System was kept at RT for 7 days, allowing sufficient time for organic vapor to interact with the solids. The solids were then analyzed (wet sample).
Fast évaporation
In each experiment, approximately 10 mg of Form A was dissolved in 0.5 to 1.0 mL of each solvent in a 1.5-mL glass vial. The visually clear solutions were kept at ambient conditions for fast évaporation with the lid off. The solids obtained via évaporation were then analyzed (dry sample).
Reverse anti-solvent addition
In each experiment, approximately 20 mg of Form A was dissolved in 0.2 to 0.6 mL of each solvent to obtain a clear solution. The solution was added to a glass vial containing 2.0 mL of each antisolvent at RT conditions. The precipitate formed was centrifuged at 10,000 rpm for 3 to 5 minutes for analysis (wet sample). In the cases where no précipitation was observed, slow évaporation experiments were conducted for the remaining solutions.
Water activity experiments
Water activity experiments, ranging from 0 to 1 water activity (aw) at 0.2 intervals, were performed with H2O and acetonitrile. About 10 mg of Form A was weighed into 1.5 mL vials and 0.5 mL of the solvent mixture was added. The suspension was stirred at a rate of 1000 rpm at room température. The residual solvent was removed from the sample by centrifugation (10000 rpm for 3min).

To complément the temperature-dependent studies and confirm the solvation state of the solid forms, solution NMR was collected on a Bruker 400 MHz NMR Spectrometer using deuterated dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO-d6) as the solvent.
Form A: TGA and DSC were performed and the details provided in FIG IC. Thermogravimetric analysis of Form A resulted in a 1.0% weight loss up to 200 5C. An endotherm observed on the DSC curve at 157.2 eC (onset température), representing the transformation of Form A to Form K, was followed by a sharp melting peak for Form K at 203.8 eC (onset température). Vérification of the transformation to Form K was performed by VT-XRPD, as shown in FIG. ID.
Form B-l: TGA and DSC were performed, and their respective curves are provided in FIG. 2C. The TGA curve shows a 2-stage weight loss, with a 5.7% loss of residual solvent up to 76 QC followed by an 8.5% loss (desolvation) up to 200 qC. The DSC curve exhibits 2 endothermie peaks at 87.2 9C and 211.7 5C (onset températures), corresponding to the loss of solvent (transformation to Form K) and the melting point of Form K, respectively. Analysis by XPRD indicates that Form B-l transforms to Form K upon heating to 100 °C, as shown in FIG. 2D. Based on the 1H NMR data shown in FIG. 2G, Form B is an n-heptane solvaté with a molar ratio of 1:0.4 Compound 1: n-heptane (~8.9% nheptane by weight), which is in good agreement with the TGA resuit. Residual DCM with a molar ratio of 1:0.06 Compound 1:DCM (1.2% by weight) was also observed in the 1H NMR data.
Form B-2: The TGA of this isomorph is shown in FIG. 2E along with the TGA curves of the other two isomorphs. The DSC curve of this isomorph, which is depicted in FIG. 2F along with an overlay of the other two isomorphs, exhibits two endotherms, one at a Tonset of 85.4 °C and one at a Tonset of 212.2 9C. The XH NMR spectrum in FIG. 2H showed that Form B is an n-heptane solvaté in a molar ratio of 1:0.3 Compound 1: n-heptane, with no THF observed.
Form B-3: The TGA of this isomorph is shown in FIG. 2E along with the TGA curves of the other two isomorphs. The DSC curve of this isomorph, which is depicted in FIG. 2F along with an overlay ofthe other two isomorphs, exhibits two endotherms, one at a Tonset of 69.2 °C and one at a Tonsef of 211.6 9C. The XH NMR spectrum in FIG. 21 showed that Form B is a chloroform solvaté in a molar ratio of 1:0.5 Compound l:chloroform, with residual methyl tert-butyl ether detected.
Form C: TGA and DSC were performed, and their respective curves are provided in FIG. 3C. The TGA curve shows that a weight loss of 4.3% occurs below 50 eC indicating loosely held solvent or adventitious solvent, possibly present due to insufficient drying. The DSC curve exhibits endothermie peaks at 183.8 5C and 211.0 eC (onset températures). Further investigation of the endotherm at 183.8 eC was performed by heating Form C to 185 °C, which resulted in a form transformation to Form K, as shown in FIG. 3D. Analysis by VT-XRPD was performed on Form C, with and without nitrogen (N2) flow, to investigate possible rehydration from air. As shown in FIG. 3E, no différences were observed with and without N2, indicating that Form C is an anhydrate.
Form F: TGA and DSC were performed, and their respective curves are provided in FIG. 6B. The TGA curve shows a total weight loss of 19.7% up to 200 5C. The DSC curve exhibits 2 endothermie peaks at 63.1 SC and 210.7 eC (onset températures), corresponding to the loss of solvent (transformation to Form K) and the melting point of Form K, respectively. This is further evidenced by the transformation of Form F to Form K after heating to 100 SC, as shown in FIG. 6C. Based on the XH NMR spectrum shown in FIG. 6D, Form F is a 1,4-dioxane solvaté with a molar ratio of 1:0.9 (16.2%
1,4-dioxane by weight), which is in good agreement with the TGA resuit. Residual n-heptane at a molar ratio of 1:0.03 (0.7% n-heptane by weight) is also observed in the XH NMR data.
Form K: TGA and DSC were performed, and their respective curves are provided in FIG. 11B. The TGA curve shows a weight loss of 1.6% up to 200 ^C, and the DSC curve exhibits an endothermie peak at 211.6 eC (onset température), corresponding to the melting endotherm of Form K. Based on the low volatiles content, Form K is an unsolvated material.
Form L: The DSC curve of Form L, shown in FIG. 12C exhibits 2 endothermie peaks at 81.7 5C and 210.6 eC (onset températures). The first endothermie peak is attributed to the possible loss of solvent or form transformation. The second endothermie peak in the DSC curve matches the melting endotherm of Form K.
Form N: The TGA curve in FIG. 14C shows a 2-step weight loss of 2.5% up to 60 eC, followed by 7.1% up to 200 5C. The DSC curve exhibits 2 endothermie peaks at 75.4 5C and 210.4 5C (onset températures), attributed to the loss of solvent (based on XH NMR) and the melting point of Form K, respectively. Based on the XH NMR resuit in FIG. 14D, Form N is a 1,4-dioxane solvaté with a molar ratio of 1:0.3 Compound l:l,4-dioxane (6.1% 1,4-dioxane by weight), which is in agreement with the second step weight loss in the TGA analysis.
Form O: A 2-step weight loss of 5.3% up to 55.1 5C, followed by 5.9% up to 200 9C is observed in the TGA curve presented in FIG. 15B. The DSC curve exhibits 3 endothermie peaks at 65.0 5C, 168.5 ^c, and 210.8 5C (onset températures), corresponding to the loss of solvent to create Form C, transformation of Form C to Form K, and the melting point of Form K, respectively. In order to investigate the endotherms observed in the DSC analysis, Form O was heated to 120°C resulting in a change to Form C, as shown in FIG. 15C. The XH NMR spectrum revealed a molar ratio of 1:0.2 for Form O: ACN (1.9% by weight) after heating to 50 5C in order to remove residual solvent, as illustrated in FIG. 15D.
Example 21. Hygroscopicity of Forms A, C, and K as measured by DVS.
Dynamic vapor sorption (DVS) was measured via an SMS (Surface Measurement Systems) DVS Intrinsic system. The relative humidity at 25 °C was calibrated against the déliquescence point of LiCI, Mg(NO3)2, and KCI. Instrument parameters for the DVS system used throughout this study are listed in Table 12.

The hygroscopicity of Form A, Form C, and Form K were investigated at 25 °C using DVS. The XRPD patterns of each sample before and after DVS were compared in order to investigate any potential form change.
The DVS isotherm plot of Form A shown in FIG. 1E exhibits 0.06% by weight water uptake at 80% RH and less than 0.12% by weight water uptake at 95% RH, revealing that Form A is non-hygroscopic. The XRPD pattern in FIG. 1F indicates there is no form change before and after DVS for Form A.
Similarly, the DVS isotherm plot of Form C shown in FIG. 3F exhibits 0.12% by weight water uptake at 80% RH and less than 0.30% by weight water uptake at 95% RH, indicating that Form C is non- hygroscopic. The XRPD pattern in FIG. 3G shows there is no form change before and after DVS for Form C.
The DVS isotherm plot of Form K shown in FIG. 11C exhibits 0.18% by weight water uptake at 80% RH and less than 0.35% by weight water uptake at 95% RH, revealing that Form K is nonhygroscopic. The XRPD pattern in FIG. 11D shows there is no form change before and after DVS for
Form K.
Example 22. Interconversion of Forms A, C, and K through slurry conversion.
In one embodiment, the inter-conversion between Forms A, C and K can be studied in a sériés of slurry conversion experiments conducted in ethyl acetate, n-butanol, and methyl tert-butyl ether (MBTE) at both room température (RT) and 50 °C. Compound 1 can display moderate solubility, and may yield solvated forms during these screening experiments. Results of the slurry conversion experiments are summarized in Table 14. The transition température between Forms A and C was estimated to be ~17 5C, and the transition température between Forms K and C was above 100 9C.

Approximately 200 g/L-225 g/L solubilized Compound l(originally Form A) in ethyl acetate was heated to a température of 65 °C in the presence of 0.2 %-1.0 % of seed crystals of Form C for 1-3 hours. The batch can then be slowly cooled down to a température between 25 °C-30 °C for no less than 3 hours to obtain Form C.

During solubility measurements, an XRPD pattern was detected in (a) slurries of Form A in EtOAc at 5 °C (after 1 h) and 20 °C (after 2 days), (b) slurries of Form C in EtOAc at 5 °C (after 1 h) and 20 °C (after 7 days). There was no direct match of this solid form's XRPD pattern to other crystal forms of Compound 1. The results indicate that this solid form of Compound 1 in EtOAc, termed Form P, is more stable than both Forms A and C in EtOAc at least at < 20 °C.
The wet cake of Form P (~5 min air) was dried in two ways: (a) under air at room température overnight, and (b) under vacuum at 40 °C for 3 hours. Both dried cakes were analyzed by XRPD, 1HNMR, and TGA. XRPD data are presented in FIG. 16. NMR data are presented in FIG. 17A FIG. 17B. TGA data are presented in FIG. ISA FIG. 18B. The air dried cake gave an XRPD pattern conforming to Form P, about 1% weight loss by TGA up to about 50 °C, and EtOAc peaks by ΧΗ NMR. This indicates that Form P is an EtOAc solvaté of Compound 1. The sample of Form P post-oven drying, on the other hand, gave an XRPD pattern conforming to Form A, no weight loss < 100 °C by TGA, and no EtOAc peaks by ‘H-NMR. Therefore, the data suggests that Form P is a solvaté of Form A and converts to Form A upon drying.
Example 25. Solubility and Relative Stability of Forms A, C and P.
Solubility profiles of Forms A, C and P across a range of température can give an indication of the relative stability of different forms within different température ranges. Sufficient equilibrium solubility data were collected experimentally covering 5-70 °C. The results are presented in Table 15 and FIG. 19.
The data indicate that (1) Form C is more stable than Form A across the entire processing température range, (2) Form Pbecomes more stable than Form C <20 °C, (3) there is little interconversion between the three forms around 25~30 °C due to slow conversion kinetics, (4) Form P becomes unstable in EtOAc at > 35 °C and converts to Form A; and (5) Form P converts into Form A upon drying in air or N2.
A phase relationship of Forms A, C and P in EtOAc is illustrated in FIG 20. In EtOAc at low températures Forms A and C can convert to Form P. Form A can also be generated from Form C at too low of a température {e.g., aimed for a better isolation yield).
