[0078] For agricultural applications, one or more crystalline polymorphic forms or amorphous forms of Compound I or Compound 2 may be used to control the expression of pesticidal proteins such as Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) toxin. Such expression may be tissue or plant specific. In addition, particularly when control of plant pests is also needed, one or more pesticides may be combined with crystalline polymorphic forms or amorphous forms of Compound 1 or Compound 2, thereby providing additional advantages and effectiveness, including fewer total applications, than if the pesticides are applied separately. When mixtures with pesticides are employed, the relative proportions of each component in the composition will depend upon the relative efficacy and the desired application rate of each pesticide with respect to the crops, pests, and/or weeds to be treated. Those skilled in the art will recognize that mixtures of pesticides may provide advantages such as a broader spectrum of activity than one pesticide used alone. Examples of pesticides which can be combined in compositions with crystalline polymorphic forms or amorphous forms of Compound I or Compound 2 include fungicides, herbicides, insecticides, miticides, and microbicides.

In another embodiment, the pharmaceutically acceptable carrier comprises PL90G, vitamin E TPGS, and Miglyol 812N. [0123] As used herein, the term "treat," "treating," or "treatment" is meant to encompass administering to a subject one or more crystalline polymorphic forms or amorphous forms of Compound 1 or Compound 2, or a composition thereof, for the purposes of amelioration or cure of a disease, disorder, injury, or condition, including preemptive treatment. [0124] As used herein, the term "subject" refers to an intact insect, plant, algae, or animal, e.g., human or veterinary animal, e.g., cow, sheep, pig, horse, dog, or cat. In one embodiment, a host cell of the subject comprises a polynucleotide encoding a gene switch that comprises a ligand binding domain that binds Compound 1. In another embodiment, a host cell of the subject comprises a polynucleotide encoding a gene switch that comprises a ligand binding domain that binds Compound 2. [0125] As used herein, the term "gene of interest" is any gene that one wishes to express that encodes a peptide, protein, or polypeptide. [0126] As used herein, the term "gene expression" refers to the transcription of DNA to messenger RNA (mRNA), and/or the translation of mRNA to amino acid sequence. [0127] As used herein, the term "regulating gene expression" refers to increasing the level of gene expression in response to contact of Compound 1 with the ligand binding - 32 domain that binds Compound 1, relative to the level of gene expression in the absence of contacting the ligand binding domain that binds Compound 1 with Compound 1. [01281 As used herein, the term "gene switch" refers to peptide, protein or polypeptide complex that functions to (a) bind Compound I or Compound 2, i.e., the ligand, and (b) regulate the transcription of a gene of interest in a ligand-dependent fashion. Gene switches are useful for various applications such as gene therapy, production of proteins in cells, cell based high throughput screening assays, functional genomics, and regulation of traits in transgenic plants and animals. [01291 In one embodiment, the polynucleotide encoding a gene switch is a recombinant polynucleotide, i.e., a polynucleotide, that has been engineered, by molecular biological manipulation, to encode the gene switch. In another embodiment, the recombinant polynucleotide is a synthetic polynucleotide. [0130] As used herein, the term "gene" refers to a polynucleotide comprising nucleotides that encode a functional molecule, including functional molecules produced by transcription only (e.g., a bioactive RNA species) or by transcription and translation (e.g. a polypeptide). The term "gene" encompasses cDNA and genomic DNA nucleic acids. "Gene" also refers to a nucleic acid fragment that expresses a specific RNA, protein or polypeptide, including regulatory sequences preceding (5' non-coding sequences) and following (3' non-coding sequences) the coding sequence. "Native gene" refers to a gene as found in nature with its own regulatory sequences. "Chimeric gene" refers to any gene that is not a native gene, comprising regulatory and/or coding sequences that are not found together in nature. Accordingly, a chimeric gene may comprise regulatory sequences and coding sequences that are derived from different sources, or regulatory sequences and coding sequences derived from the same source, but arranged in a manner different than that found in nature. A chimeric gene may comprise coding sequences derived from different sources and/or regulatory sequences derived from different sources. "Endogenous gene" refers to a native gene in its natural location in the genome of an organism. A "foreign" gene or "heterologous" or "exogenous" gene refers to a gene not normally found in the host organism, but that is introduced into the host organism by gene transfer. Foreign genes can comprise native genes inserted into a non-native organism, or chimeric genes. A "transgene" is a gene that has been introduced into the genome by a transformation procedure.

33 [0131] In one embodiment, one or more crystalline polymorphic forms or amorphous forms of Compound 1 or Compound 2 are administered to an isolated host cell or a subject as a composition. In another embodiment, one or more crystalline polymorphic forms or amorphous forms of Compound 1 or Compound 2 are administered to an isolated host cell or a subject as a pharmaceutically acceptable composition. 10132] As used herein, the term "dimerizes with the ligand binding domain that binds Compound 1" refers to a selective protein-protein interaction. 101331 In one embodiment, the gene switch efficacy or "EC 5 0 " of Compound I is about 100 nM or less, e.g., about 75 nM about 50 nM, about 25 nM, about 15 nM, about 10 nM, about 9 nM, about 8 nM, about 7 nM, about 6 nM, about 5 nM, about 4 nM, about 3nM, about 2 nM, about 1 nM, about 0.5 nM, or less in a cellular gene switch assay.

See, for example, Karzenowski et al., BioTechniques 39: 191-200 (2005). In another embodiment, the gene switch efficacy of Compound 2 is about 100 nM or less, e.g., about 75 nM about 50 nM, about 25 nM, about 15 nM, about 10 nM, about 9 nM, about 8 nM, about 7 nM, about 6 nM, about 5 nM, about 4 nM, about 3nM, about 2 nM, about 1 nM, about 0.5 nM, or less in a cellular gene switch assay. As used herein, the "EC 50 " is the "half maximal effective concentration," which refers to the concentration of Compound 1 or Compound 2 that induces a gene switch-regulated change in expression of a polynucleotide encoding an gene of interest that is halfway between the baseline level of expression and the maximum level of expression after a specified exposure time. [0134] As used herein, the term "ligand binding domain that binds Compound 1" refers to an amino acid sequence that selectively binds Compound 1. In the methods disclosed herein, Compound I binds to a ligand binding domain, e.g., an ecdysone receptor ligand binding domain, that is part of a ligand-dependent transcriptional activation complex that regulates the expression of a polynucleotide sequence that encodes a gene of interest. Hence, the expression of the gene of interest is regulated in a ligand (Compound 1) dependent fashion. Likewise, the term "ligand binding domain that binds Compound 2" refers to an amino acid sequence that selectively binds Compound 2.

- 34 [01351 In one embodiment, the ligand binding domain that binds Compound 1, e.g., an ecdysone receptor ligand binding domain, dimerizes with another ligand binding domain, e.g., a retinoid X receptor ligand binding domain, to form a protein-protein complex. [01361 In one embodiment, the expression of the gene of interest is regulated by Compound 1 or Compound 2 in an on/off fashion that is independent of the concentration or dosage of Compound 1 or Compound 2, respectively. In another embodiment, the expression of the gene of interest is regulated by Compound 1 in a concentration (or dosage)-dependent fashion, i.e., there is a dose-response relationship between the concentration (or dosage) of Compound 1 and the level of gene expression of the gene of interest. See, e.g., US 2009/0123441. [0137] The term "operably linked" refers to the association of polynucleotide sequences on a single polynucleotide so that the function of one is affected by the other. For example, a promoter is operably linked with a coding sequence when it is capable of affecting the expression of that coding sequence (i.e., that the coding sequence is under the transcriptional control of the promoter). Coding sequences can be operably linked to regulatory sequences in sense or antisense orientation. 101381 In one embodiment, the host cell is an isolated host cell.

In one embodiment, one or more crystalline polymorphic forms or amorphous forms of Compound I or Compound 2, or a composition thereof, is combined, blended, or admixed with food material to provide a "food product." The term "food material" is used in its broadest possible sense, and includes any form, e.g., solid, emulsion, liquid, of ingestible materials consumed by an animal, e.g., a human. Food products may be formulated so the subject takes in an appropriate quantity of one or more crystalline polymorphic forms or amorphous forms of Compound 1 or Compound 2 with its diet.

[0192] In addition, a host cell may be chosen which modulates the expression of the inserted polynucleotide, or modifies and processes the polypeptide product in the specific fashion desired. Different host cells have characteristic and specific mechanisms for the translational and post-translational processing and modification (e g, glycosylation, cleavage (e~g., of signal sequence)) of proteins. Appropriate cell lines or host systems can be chosen to ensure the desired modification and processing of the foreign protein expressed. For example, expression in a bacterial system can be used to produce a non-glycosylated core protein product. However, a polypeptide expressed in bacteria may not be properly folded. Expression in yeast can produce a glycosylated product. Expression in eukaryotic cells can increase the likelihood of "native" glycosylation and folding of a heterologous protein. Moreover, expression in mammalian cells can provide a tool for reconstituting, or constituting, the polypeptide's activity. Furthermore, different vector/host expression systems may affect processing reactions, such as proteolytic cleavages, to a different extent. 101931 In one embodiment, the host cell comprises two or more orthogonal gene switches. Two or more individually operable gene regulation systems are said to be "orthogonal" when (a) modulation of each of the given gene switches by its respective ligand results in a measurable change in the magnitude of expression of the gene that is regulated by that gene switch, and (b) the change is statistically significantly different than the change in expression of all other gene switches that are in the host cell. In one embodiment, regulation of each individually operable gene switch system effects a change in gene expression at least 2-fold, 3-fold, 4-fold, 5-fold, 10-fold, 20-fold, 50 fold, 70-fold, 100-fold, 200-fold, 300 fold, 400-fold or 500-fold greater than all of the other operable gene switches in the host cell. Non-limiting examples of orthogonal gene switch systems are set forth in U.S. Patent Publication No. US 2002/0110861 Al.

There was no indication of hydrate (Form IV) or CO 2 adduct formation. 102701 Two types of experiments elucidated the mechanical stability of Compound 1 Form III. First, about 200 mg of Form III was pressed in an IR press with a force of 10 - 72 metric tons (13 mm diameter of pellet) for 30 min. The resulting pellets were analyzed by PXRD. Second, about 150 mg of Form 111 was vigorously ground and analyzed by PXRD. The PXRD patterns of the samples after mechanical treatment show no change in crystalline form after grinding or pressurizing. EXAMPLE 5 Preparation of Compound I Form IV [02711 Pure crystalline Compound I Form IV was prepared according to the following methods: Method 32 [0272] 106 mg of Compound 1 Form I-A was suspended in 2.0 mL of water and sonicated. After stirring for 14 days at room temperature, the solid was collected by filtration and dried under vacuum for 30 minutes to give Form IV. TG-FTIR investigation shows Form IV is a hydrate with a loss of 3.5 wt.-% water from 25 0

C

150 0 C (3.9 wt.-% would correspond to a monohydrate). According to TG-FTIR, the hydrate releases water near 1004C. Method 33 102731 100 mg of Compound I Fonn I-A was suspended in 5.0 mL of 1:1 (v/v) water:ethanol and sonicated. After stirring for 16 days at 5*C, the solid was collected by filtration and dried under vacuum for 30 minutes to give Form IV. Method 34 [0274] 109 mg of Compound 1 Form I-A was suspended in 5.0 mL of 1:1 (v/v) water:2-propanol and sonicated.

EXAMPLE 7 Preparation of Compound 1 Form VI Method 36 102781 101 mg of Compound 1 Form I-A was suspended in 5.0 mL of 1:1 (v:v) water:methanol and sonicated. After stirring for 14 days at room temperature; the solid was collected by filtration and dried under vacuum for 30 minutes to give Form VI. The PXRD pattern of the dried sample is different from a superposition of Form IV (hydrate) and Form V (methanol monosolvate). Form VI is probably a mixed methanol solvate / hydrate. In this form, the methanol/water ratio can affect the solid structure, and this would likely result in PXRD peak position shifts. TG-FTIR investigation shows a loss of 3.8 wt.-% methanol (and some water) from 25 0 C-90 0 C and 2.1 wt.-% water (and some methanol) from 90-130 0 C (3.5 wt.-% methanol would correspond to a hemi-solvate; 2.0 wt.-% water would correspond to a hemi-hydrate).

EXAMPLE II Preparation of Compound I Form X Method 40 [02831 128 mg of Compound I Form I-A was dissolved in 0.2 mL of formic acid. The solvent was evaporated under a stream of nitrogen for 1 day. The solid was dried under vacuum for 35 minutes to give Compound 1 as an amorphous solid (Form X) based on PXRD characterization (Fig. 31.) and FT-Rarmian spectroscopy (Fig. 32). EXAMPLE 12 Solvent-based Stability tests in n-heptane/toluene 102841 The thermodynamic stability of Form 11 and Form III as a function of temperature was investigated by suspension equilibration experiments. Method 41 [02851 54.6 mg of Compound I Form III and 61.2 mg of Compound 1 Form II were suspended in 0.8 mL of 3:2 (v/v) n-heptane:toluene and sonicated. After stirring at 45'C for 6 days the solid was collected by filtration and dried under vacuum for 1 hour to give a mixture of Form III and Form IV. In this experiment the starting material likely took up ambient humidity to give Form IV.

- 81 Method 42 102861 18.5 mg of Compound 1 Form III and 28.0 mg of Compound 1 Form II were suspended in 0.4 mL of 3:2 (v/v) n-heptane:toluene and sonicated. After stirring at 60'C for 6 days the solid was collected by filtration to give Form II. Method 43 [02871 35.4 mg of Compound 1 Form III and 46.1 mg of Compound I Form II were suspended in 0.4 mL of 3:2 (v/v) n-heptane:toluene and sonicated. After stirring at 50'C for 6 days the solid was collected by filtration to give a mixture of Form II and Form III. Method 44 102881 40.5 mg of Compound 1 Form III and 45.7 mg of Compound 1 Form II were suspended in 0.4 mL of 3:2 (v/v) n-heptane:toluene and sonicated. After stirring at 55 0 C for 6 days the solid was collected by filtration to give Form II. [0289] The solvent-based experiments are in principle thermodynamic stability tests between Compound 1 Forms II and III because mixtures of both forms were suspended. Below 45 0 C Form III is the more stable form in 3:2 (v/v) n-heptane:toluene. Above 55 0 C Form II is the more stable form in 3:2 (v/v) n-heptane:toluene. At 50'C a mixture of both Form II and Form III was obtained in 3:2 (v/v) n-heptane:toluene. This is not unexpected. Close to the transition temperature, the thermodynamic driving force would be expected to be very small leading to slow transition rates. Possibly the kinetics of transformation were too slow for the transformation to occur on the timescale of the experiment. According to these suspension equilibration experiments, Form II and Form II, are enantiotropic polymorphs. The thermodynamic transition temperature between Form II and Form III is between 45C and 55 0 C. EXAMPLE 13 Solvent-based Stability Tests in n-Heptane/Ethanol [02901 Compound 1 Form 1I, Compound I Form III, or a mixture of Compound 1 Forms II and III were slurried in 95:5 heptane:ethanol (anhydrous). After one day at various temperatures, a portion of the slurry was filtered and analyzed by XRPD. The results are presented in Table 9. A solution mediated transition occurs at 45-47 0 C in - 82 95:5 heptane:ethanol. Below 45 0 C Compound 1 Form III is more stable; above 47 0 C Compound 1 Form II is more stable.

The results are presented in Table 10. At a methanol content of more than 60% volume, Form V is the most stable polymorphic form of Compound 1 at all three temperatures.

[02941 Under standard assay conditions, Compound I was tested at 8 doses from 0.01-33 piM and the final DMSO concentration was 0.33% in both control and treatment wells. When necessary, Compound I was tested at lower concentrations. After a 48-hour post-treatment and transfection incubation, the cells were assayed for luciferase activity using the Bright-GloTM Luciferase Assay System (Promega Corporation, Madison, WI, USA) following the manufacturer's instructions. Assays were performed minimally in duplicate and definitive assays as many as six times. Data was fitted to a sigmoidal dose-response curve.

[0296] A study involving study human subjects with stage III and IV melanoma is conducted in 4 cohorts (groups) of subjects each subject receiving a single intratumoral injection (into a melanoma tumor) of adenoviral transduced autologous (reinserted into the same subject that they came from) dendritic cells (DCs) engineered to express human interleukin- 12 (hIL- 12), and one or more other immunodulators, at a dose of 5 x 107 in combination with daily oral doses of one or more crystalline polymorphic forms - 85 of Compound 1, or a composition thereof (referred to collectively in this example as the "activator drug"). The study will use injections of dendritic cells transduced ex vivo (after the cells are removed from the subjects) with adenoviral vector for inducible expression of human IL- 12 and one or more other immunodulators. The production of IL-12 and the one or more or other immunomodulators is "turned on" (induced) from the injected DCs through the activation of the RI'S* by the oral administration of the activator drug. Safety and tolerance is assessed through physical examinations (including ECOG performance status), vital signs measurements, serum chemistry, urinalysis, hematology, adverse events "side-effects", and antibodies and cellular immune response to the adenovirus, components of RTS* and the activator drug. To evaluate progress, single dose and steady-state pharmacokinetics/ADME of the activator drug, analysis of hIL-12 levels, other immunonodulator levels, and cellular innune response (T cells) in biopsies of the target tumors, draining lymph nodes, and peripheral circulation, as well as a serum cytokine profile is measured. [02971 For instance, 16 subjects with stage III and IV melanoma are divided into four cohorts with cohorts I and 2 containing three subjects and cohorts 3 and 4 containing 5 subjects. All subjects will receive a single intratumoral injection of 5xi0' autologous DC transduced with adenoviral vector encoding human IL-12 and one or more other irun1iodulators under the RTSe control. For example, the subjects are administered an intratumoral injection of autologous DC transduced with adenoviral vector encoding human IL-12 under the RTS* control and an immunomod ulator such as IL-15 or IL-2L. [0298] The subjects will receive a single daily oral dose of the activator drug (cohort 1: 0.01 mg/kg, cohort 2: 0.1 mg/kg, cohort 3: 1.0 mg/kg or cohort 4: 3 mg/kg) the first dose starting approximately 3 hours prior to the DC injection on day I and continuing for 13 more consecutive days. Additional injection(s) of adenovirally transduced autologous dendritic cells in combination with 14 single (once) daily oral doses of activator drug may be administered to eligible subjects who meet the criteria for retreatment. Safety, tolerance, and dendritic cell function are assessed for all subjects in each group of cohort I for up to one month after injection of the in vitro engineered dendritic cells before enrolling subjects to receive the next highest dose of the activator drug. The safety assessment will continue in all subjects for 3 months after the initial injection of the engineered dendritic cells with the possibility of extending the follow- - 86 up period to a total of six months to monitor subject safety if toxicity is observed or the subject receives additional injecLion(s) of the dendritic cells. [02991 Such a study demonstrates the safety and tolerance of a single or multiple intratumoral injection(s) of adenoviral transduced autologous dendritic cells in combination with the oral activator drug in subjects with melanoma. The study provides steady-state pharmacokinetics/ADME of the oral activator drug. The study demonstrates functionality of the RTS* in subjects by measuring hIL-12 expression and the expression of the one or more other immunomodulators of adenovirus transduced autologous dendritic cells in target tumor and/or draining lymph nodes in response to the activation of the RTS* by the oral administration of the activator drug. Furthermore, the study demonstrates the immunological effects of the adenoviral transduced autologous dendritic cells in terms of the cellular immune response in the target tumor, draining lymph nodes, and peripheral circulation following oral administration of the activator drug. [0300] Melanoma is selected as an exemplary cancer. Melanoma in particular among solid tumors has been shown to respond to immunotherapy approaches, and melanoma tumors are readily accessible for intratumoral injection and biopsy. The subjects included in the study have unresectable stage III or IV melanoma, which has at least 0.5 cm in diameter, any tumor thickness, any number of lymph node involvement, in transit metastases, or distant metastases.
