Definitions
- Daprodustat is chemically known as 2-[(1,3-dicyclohexyl-2,4,6-trioxo-1,3-diazinane-5- carbonyl)amino]acetic acid (compound of formula I), which is an small-molecule hypoxia- inducible factor (HIF) prolyl hydroxylase (PHD) inhibitor.
- HIF hypoxia- inducible factor
- PLD prolyl hydroxylase
- Daprodustat is a potent inhibitor of PHD1, PHD2 and PHD3and leads to stabilization of cellular HIF1 ⁇ and HIF2 ⁇ and the induction of erythropoiesis.
- Daprodustat was fully approved by the FDA as the first oral treatment for anemia caused by chronic kidney disease in patients on dialysis.
- Daprodustat was first disclosed in the US Patent No.8,324,208 as antagonists of HIF prolyl hydroxylases useful for treatment of anemia.
- the PCT publication WO 2019/052133 relates to crystalline forms of CS1 and CS9 of 2-[(1,3- dicyclohexyl-2,4,6-trioxo-1,3-diazinane-5- carbonyl)amino]acetic acid.
- the dissolution property of tablets prepared from the crystalline forms of CS1 and CS9 is not good due to poor solubility of the crystal forms.
- the PCT publication WO 2020/102302 relates to crystalline Form 3 and Form 4 of 2-[(1,3- dicyclohexyl-2,4,6-trioxo-1,3-diazinane-5-carbonyl)amino]acetic acid.
- the PCT publication WO 2021/031102 relates to crystalline Form M and K of 2-[(1,3- dicyclohexyl-2,4,6-trioxo-1,3-diazinane-5-carbonyl)amino]acetic acid. Characteristics such as high purity and high solubility, good dissolution make a compound polymorphic form more suitable for use in pharmaceutical formulations.
- the present invention provides novel polymorphic forms of Daprodustat, which are physically and chemically stable at storage conditions and has sufficient solubility and bioavailability with high purity, and processes for preparation thereof, and pharmaceutical compositions and uses thereof. Accordingly, the present invention provides a crystalline Form C1 of Daprodustat as described herein. It is, in particular, characterized by at least one of: (a) an X-ray powder diffraction pattern (PXRD) peaks, (b) Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) data, and (c) Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) data as shown in Figure 1(a-c) respectively.
- PXRD X-ray powder diffraction pattern
- DSC Differential scanning calorimetry
- TGA Thermogravimetric analysis
- the crystalline Form C1 of Daprodustat may be characterized by an X-ray powder diffraction pattern (PXRD) having peaks at 4.9, 6.9, 10.9, 21.9, 23.2 and 25.0 ⁇ 0.2 °2 ⁇ . Accordingly, the present invention further provides a crystalline Form C2 of Daprodustat as described herein. It is, in particular, characterized by at least one of: (a) an X-ray powder diffraction pattern (PXRD) peaks, b) Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) data, and (c) Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) data as shown in Figure 2(a-c) respectively.
- PXRD X-ray powder diffraction pattern
- DSC Differential scanning calorimetry
- TGA Thermogravimetric analysis
- the crystalline Form C2 of Daprodustat may be further characterized by an X-ray powder diffraction pattern having peaks at 4.9, 7.6, 8.0, 10.9, 13.8, 15.4, 23.2 and 24.9 ⁇ 0.2°2 ⁇ . Accordingly, the present invention further provides a co-crystalline Form C3 of Daprodustat and L-proline characterized by an X-ray powder diffraction pattern (PXRD) peaks as shown in Figure 3.

Description
DAPRODUSTAT POLYMORPHS AND PROCESSES FOR PREPARATION THEREOF FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to novel crystalline polymorphic forms of Daprodustat, processes for preparation and uses thereof. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Daprodustat, is chemically known as 2-[(1,3-dicyclohexyl-2,4,6-trioxo-1,3-diazinane-5- carbonyl)amino]acetic acid (compound of formula I), which is an small-molecule hypoxia- inducible factor (HIF) prolyl hydroxylase (PHD) inhibitor. It is used for the treatment of anaemia in patients with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), in cases where the kidney is not able to produce erythropoietin. Daprodustat is a potent inhibitor of PHD1, PHD2 and PHD3and leads to stabilization of cellular HIF1α and HIF2α and the induction of erythropoiesis. On February, 2023, Daprodustat was fully approved by the FDA as the first oral treatment for anemia caused by chronic kidney disease in patients on dialysis.
Daprodustat was first disclosed in the US Patent No.8,324,208 as antagonists of HIF prolyl hydroxylases useful for treatment of anemia. The PCT publication WO 2019/052133 relates to crystalline forms of CS1 and CS9 of 2-[(1,3- dicyclohexyl-2,4,6-trioxo-1,3-diazinane-5- carbonyl)amino]acetic acid. However, as discussed in US 2022/0169619 (corresponds to WO 2021/031102) the dissolution property of tablets prepared from the crystalline forms of CS1 and CS9 is not good due to poor solubility of the crystal forms. The PCT publication WO 2020/102302 relates to crystalline Form 3 and Form 4 of 2-[(1,3- dicyclohexyl-2,4,6-trioxo-1,3-diazinane-5-carbonyl)amino]acetic acid. The PCT publication WO 2021/031102 relates to crystalline Form M and K of 2-[(1,3- dicyclohexyl-2,4,6-trioxo-1,3-diazinane-5-carbonyl)amino]acetic acid.
Characteristics such as high purity and high solubility, good dissolution make a compound polymorphic form more suitable for use in pharmaceutical formulations. Despite the development of new crystalline forms of 2-[(1,3-dicyclohexyl-2,4,6-trioxo-1,3-diazinane-5- carbonyl)amino]acetic acid i.e. Daprodustat, there is still a need in the art still to provide 2- [(1,3-dicyclohexyl-2,4,6-trioxo-1,3-diazinane-5- carbonyl)amino]acetic acid in its polymorph forms which is physically and chemically stable at storage conditions and has sufficient solubility and bioavailability thereby reducing the dosages. There is also a need to provide 2- [(1,3-dicyclohexyl-2,4,6-trioxo-1,3-diazinane-5- carbonyl)amino]acetic acid in its polymorph forms with high purity and high solubility, making it more suitable for in pharmaceutical formulations.
