- The singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” and the like include plural referents unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. Thus, for example, reference to “a compound” includes both a single compound and a plurality of different compounds.
- The term “about” when used before a numerical designation, e.g., temperature, time, amount, and concentration, including a range, indicates approximations which may vary by ±10%, ±5% or ±1%.
- Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meanings as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs. Although any methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described herein can be used in the practice or testing of the present invention, the preferred methods, devices, and materials are now described. All publications cited herein are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety for the purpose of describing and disclosing the methodologies, reagents, and tools reported in the publications that might be used in connection with the invention. Nothing herein is to be construed as an admission that the invention is not entitled to antedate such disclosure by virtue of prior invention.
- The practice of the present invention will employ, unless otherwise indicated, conventional methods of chemistry, biochemistry, molecular biology, cell biology, genetics, immunology, and pharmaceutical sciences, within the skill of the art. Such techniques are explained fully in the literature. (See, e.g., Gennaro, A. R., ed. (1990) Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 18th ed., Mack Publishing Co.; Colowick, S. et al, eds., Methods In Enzymology, Academic Press, Inc.; D. M. Weir, and C. C. Blackwell, eds.

Eur), 7th edition; The United States Pharmacopeia (USP) and the National Formulary (NE), USP 35-NF 30.
- The term “API” is the abbreviation for “active pharmaceutical ingredient.” As used herein, API refers to Compound A, or [(4-hydroxy-1-methyl-7-phenoxy-isoquinoline-3-carbonyl)-amino]-acetic acid.
- The term “block light” refers to preventing or reducing the transmittance of light by absorbing, reflecting, refracting, diffracting, dispersing, and/or scattering light. When a dye blocks light at a certain wavelength range, the dye prevents or reduces the transmittance of light at that wavelength range by absorbing, reflecting, refracting, diffracting, dispersing, and/or scattering light.
- The term “capsule” refers to a solid dosage form of a pharmaceutical formulation that comprises a capsule shell and a capsule fill.
- The term “capsule fill” refers to the material enclosed within a capsule shell. Typically, the capsule fill comprises the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients. The amount of API in the capsule fill can be expressed as a weight percent of API based on the total weight of the capsule fill (w/w %).
- The term “capsule shell” refers to an outer layer of a capsule. The capsule shell comprises gelatin, cellulose polymers or other suitable materials which would allow for delivery of the API. The capsule shell may be a hard-shell consisting of a telescoping cap and body piece in a range of standard sizes. The cap and body piece may be sealed after addition of the capsule fill. Such hard shelled capsules are typically used to deliver dry, powdered API in the capsule fill. The capsule shell may be a one-piece soft-shell used to deliver API as a solution or suspension in the capsule fill. In one embodiment, the capsule shell may comprise the photostabilizing agent. The amount of photostabilizing agent in the capsule shell can be expressed as a weight percent of photostabilizing agent based on the total weight of the capsule shell (% w/w). In one embodiment, the capsule shell comprises gelatin (a gelatin shell). In another embodiment, the capsule shell comprises hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) (an HPMC shell).
- The term “dye” as used throughout, includes true dyes (as defined in color and dye chemistry), dye lakes and pigments. A true dye (as defined in color and dye chemistry) is a colored substance (including white color) that is soluble in water and/or an organic solvent and has an affinity to the substrate to which it is being applied such that color is imparted to the substrate. A dye lake is a solid, water insoluble form of a true dye. It is manufactured by mixing a true dye with an inert material such as aluminum hydroxide (aluminum lake, commonly used), barium sulfate, calcium sulfate, aluminum oxide (alumina). The amount of true dye in the lake is expressed as “dye strength.” A pigment is a colored substance that is insoluble in water or organic solvent.
- Dyes appear in colors because they absorb light in the visible spectrum (400-700 nm) and transmit, reflect or scatter light of other wavelengths in the visible spectrum. A “yellow dye” absorbs predominantly blue light and appears yellow in color. An “orange dye” absorbs predominantly green blue light and appears orange in color. A “red dye” absorbs predominantly blue-green light and appears red in color. A “blue dye” absorbs predominantly yellow light and appears blue in color. A “green dye” predominantly absorbs red and orange light and appears green in color. A “black dye” absorbs light of the entire visible spectrum and appears black in color. Examples of red dye, yellow dye, green dye, blue dye and black dye are given in the following table. In addition to absorbing light, these dyes may block light through reflecting, refracting, diffracting, dispersing, and/or scattering light.
- Different colors can also be obtained by mixing two or more dyes. For example, orange dyes of different shades can be obtained by mixing different amount of red and yellow dyes.
- Dyes described in this application are referred to by their principal name. One of skill in the art would be able to readily ascertain the dye's US name or C.I. name (Color Index name). Non-limiting examples of dyes are listed in the following table.

Anemia can be associated with abnormal production, processing, or performance of erythrocytes and/or hemoglobin. The term anemia refers to any reduction in the number of red blood cells and/or level of hemoglobin in blood relative to normal blood levels. Anemia can arise due to conditions such as acute or chronic kidney disease, infections, inflammation, cancer, irradiation, toxins, diabetes, and surgery. Infections may be due to, e.g., virus, bacteria, and/or parasites, etc. Inflammation may be due to infection, autoimmune disorders, such as rheumatoid arthritis, etc. Anemia can also be associated with blood loss due to, e.g., stomach ulcer, duodenal ulcer, hemorrhoids, cancer of the stomach or large intestine, trauma, injury, surgical procedures, etc. Anemia is further associated with radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and kidney dialysis. Anemia is also associated with HIV-infected patients undergoing treatment with azidothymidine (zidovudine) or other reverse transcriptase inhibitors, and can develop in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, e.g., with cyclic cisplatin- or non-cisplatin-containing chemotherapeutics. Aplastic anemia and myelodysplastic syndromes are diseases associated with bone marrow failure that result in decreased production of erythrocytes. Further, anemia can result from defective or abnormal hemoglobin or erythrocytes, such as in disorders including microcytic anemia, hypochromic anemia, etc. Anemia can result from disorders in iron transport, processing, and utilization, see, e.g., sideroblastic anemia, etc.
- The terms “disorders,” “diseases,” and “conditions” are used inclusively herein and refer to any condition deviating from normal.
- “Treatment”, “treating”, and “treat” are defined as acting upon a disease, disorder, or condition with an agent to reduce or ameliorate the harmful or any other undesired effects of the disease, disorder, or condition and/or its symptoms. Treatment, as used herein, covers the treatment of a human patient, and includes; (a) reducing the risk of occurrence of the condition in a patient determined to be predisposed to the disease but not yet diagnosed as having the condition, (b) impeding the development of the condition, and/or (c) relieving the condition, i.e., causing regression of the condition and/or relieving one or more symptoms of the condition.
- “Administration” refers to introducing an agent into a patient. A therapeutic amount can be administered, which can be determined by the treating physician or the like.

The related terms and phrases “administering” and “administration of”, when used in connection with a compound or pharmaceutical formulation (and grammatical equivalents) refer both to direct administration, which may be administration to a patient by a medical professional or by self-administration by the patient, and/or to indirect administration, which may be the act of prescribing a drug. For example, a physician who instructs a patient to self-administer a drug and/or provides a patient with a prescription for a drug is administering the drug to the patient. In any event, administration entails delivery of the drug to the patient.
- Hypoxia inducible factor (HIF) is a basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) PAS (Per/Arnt/Sim) transcriptional activator that mediates changes in gene expression in response to changes in cellular oxygen concentration, HIF is a heterodimer containing an oxygen-regulated α-subunit (HIFα), and a constitutively expressed β-subunit (HIFβ/ARNT). In oxygenated (normoxic) cells, HIFα subunits are rapidly degraded by a mechanism that involves ubiquitination by the von Hippel-Lindau tumor suppressor (pVHL) E3 ligase complex. Under hypoxic conditions, HIFα is not degraded, and an active HIFα/β complex accumulates in the nucleus, and activates the expression of several genes including glycolytic enzymes, glucose transporters, erythropoietin (EPO), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF).

The pharmaceutical formulation may also be formulated into rectal compositions such as suppositories or retention enemas, e.g., containing conventional suppository bases such as cocoa butter or other glycerides.
- Pharmaceutical preparations for oral use can be obtained using solid excipients, optionally grinding a resulting mixture, and processing the mixture of granules, after adding suitable auxiliaries, if desired, to obtain tablets or tablet cores. Suitable excipients are well known in the art and are described elsewhere herein.
- Pharmaceutical preparations for oral administration include push-fit capsules made of gelatin, HPMC, and other suitable materials, as well as soft, sealed capsules made of gelatin and a plasticizer, such as glycerol or sorbitol. The push-fit capsules can contain the active ingredients in admixture with filler such as lactose, binders such as starches, and/or lubricants such as talc or magnesium stearate and, optionally, stabilizers. In soft capsules, the active ingredients may be dissolved or suspended in suitable liquids, such as fatty oils, liquid paraffin, or liquid polyethylene glycols. In addition, stabilizers may be added.
- The pharmaceutical formulations may also be formulated as a depot preparation, Such long acting formulations may be administered by implantation (for example, subcutaneously or intramuscularly) or by intramuscular injection. Thus, for example, the pharmaceutical formulations may be formulated with suitable polymeric or hydrophobic materials (for example as an emulsion in an acceptable oil) or ion exchange resins, or as sparingly soluble derivatives, for example, as a sparingly soluble salt.
- For any composition used in the various treatments embodied herein, an effective dose (or therapeutically effective dose) can be estimated initially using a variety of techniques well known in the art. For example, in a cell culture assay, a dose can be formulated in animal models to achieve a circulating concentration range that includes the IC50 as determined in cell culture. Dosage ranges appropriate for human subjects can be determined, for example, using data obtained from cell culture assays and non-human animal studies. In one embodiment, the dosage may be from 0.05 mg/kg to about 700 mg/kg. Typically, the dosage may be from about 0.05 mg/kg to about 500 mg/kg; from about 0.1 mg/kg to about 250 mg/kg; from about 0.2 mg/kg to about 100 mg/kg; from about 0.3 mg/kg to about 10 mg/kg; from about 0.5 mg/kg to about 5 mg/kg; or from about 1 mg/kg to about 2 mg/kg. For example, the dosage may be about 0.5 mg/kg; about 0.7 mg/kg; 1.0 mg/kg; about 1.2 mg/kg; about 1.5 mg/kg; about 2.0 mg/kg; about 2.5 mg/kg; about 3.0 mg/kg; about 3.5 mg/kg; about 4.0 mg/kg; about 4.5 mg/kg; or about 5.0 mg/kg. The dosages may be administered at various intervals, for example, every day, every other day, 1, 2, or 3 times a week, etc. Typically, the dosages is administered 2 or 3 times a week.
- A therapeutically effective dose of a compound refers to that amount of the compound that results in amelioration of symptoms or a prolongation of survival in a subject. Toxicity and therapeutic efficacy of such molecules can be determined by standard pharmaceutical procedures in cell cultures or experimental animals, e.g., by determining the LD50 (the dose lethal to 50% of the population) and the ED50 (the dose therapeutically effective in 50% of the population). The dose ratio of toxic to therapeutic effects is the therapeutic index, which can be expressed as the ratio LD50/ED50. Compounds that exhibit high therapeutic indices are preferred.
- Dosages preferably fall within a range of circulating concentrations that includes the ED50 with little or no toxicity. Dosages may vary within this range depending upon the dosage form employed and the route of administration utilized. The exact formulation, route of administration, and dosage should be chosen, according to methods known in the art, in view of the specifics of a subject's condition.
- Dosage amount and interval may be adjusted individually to provide plasma levels of the active moiety that are sufficient to modulate a desired parameter, e.g., endogenous erythropoietin plasma levels, i.e. minimal effective concentration (MEC). The MEC will vary for each compound but can be estimated from, for example, in vitro data. In cases of local administration or selective uptake, the effective local concentration of the drug may not be related to plasma concentration. Alternatively, modulation of a desired parameter, e.g., stimulation of endogenous erythropoietin, may be achieved by 1) administering a loading dose followed by a maintenance dose, 2) administering an induction dose to rapidly achieve the desired parameter, e.g., erythropoietin levels, within a target range, followed by a lower maintenance dose to maintain, e.g., hematocrit, within a desired target range, or 3) repeated intermittent dosing.
- The amount of compound or composition administered will, of course, be dependent on a variety of factors, including the sex, age, and weight of the subject being treated, the severity of the affliction, the manner of administration, and the judgment of the prescribing physician.
- The present compositions may, if desired, be presented in a pack or dispenser device containing one or more unit dosage forms containing the active ingredient. Such a pack or device may, for example, comprise metal or plastic foil, such as a blister pack. The pack or dispenser device may be accompanied by instructions for administration. Pharmaceutical formulations of the disclosure formulated in a compatible pharmaceutical excipient may also be prepared, placed in an appropriate container, and labeled for treatment of an indicated condition. Suitable conditions indicated on the label may include treatment of conditions, disorders, or diseases in which anemia is a major indication.

- The disclosure is also directed to a method of inhibiting the activity of at least one hydroxylase enzyme which modifies the alpha subunit of hypoxia inducible factor. The HIF hydroxylase enzyme may be a prolyl hydroxylase including, but not limited to, the group consisting of EGLN1, EGLN2, and EGLN3 (also known as PHD2, PHD1 and PHD3, respectively), described by Taylor (2001, Gene 275:125-132), and characterized by Aravind and Koonin (2001, Genome Biol 2:RESEARCH0007), Epstein et al. (2001, Cell 107:43-54), and Bruick and McKnight (2001, Science 294:1337-1340). The method comprises contacting the enzyme with Compound A. In some embodiments, the HIF hydroxylase enzyme is an asparaginyl hydroxylase or a prolyl hydroxylase. In other embodiments, the HIF hydroxylase enzyme is a factor inhibiting HIF, human EGLN1, EGLN2, or EGLN3.
- While this disclosure has been described in conjunction with specific embodiments and examples, it will be apparent to a person of ordinary skill in the art, having regard to that skill and this disclosure, that equivalents of the specifically disclosed materials and methods will also be applicable to this disclosure; and such equivalents are intended to be included within the following claims.
- Approximately 500 mg of Compound A dry powder was placed in a 1-gallon polyethylene bag and exposed to sunlight for two months consecutively during daylight hours. The powder was in a very thin layer and the bag was shaken often to ensure that all the powder and not just the top layer was exposed to sunlight. A control sample of Compound A powder was stored in an amber vial in the dark for the same amount of time for comparison purposes. After two months, visual inspection of the two samples indicated that the light-exposed sample had become off-white, compared to the control sample which was yellow. The light-exposed sample and the control sample were analyzed by HPLC to evaluate differences in their composition. The HPLC method used a reverse phase Zorbax Eclipse XDB-C8, 3.5 μm, 4.6×150 mm column. The mobile phase was comprised of water and acetonitrile mixtures acidified with trifluoroacetic acid. Gradient elution with increasing acetonitrile provided chromatograms of the control sample of Compound A (
FIG. 1 , before light exposure) and the light-exposed sample of Compound A (FIG. 1 , after light exposure) with UV detection at 230 nm. The HPLC of the light-exposed sample shows the appearance of a new peak, designated as “Photodegradation Product” inFIG. 1 . - Before exposure to sunlight, the Compound A powder had a purity value of 99.1% as measured by reverse phase HPLC and no single impurity was present at a level above 0.2% w/w (2000 ppm). After exposure to sunlight, the Compound A powder had a slightly lower purity value of 98.4%. After exposure to sunlight, a new peak appeared in the chromatogram evidencing a new molecule. The new peak had an area of 0.34%. The fact that the area percent of Compound A decreased on exposure to sunlight and the new molecule appeared suggests that a fraction of Compound A is converting to the new molecule, a photodegradation product.
- It was found that tablets comprising [(4-hydroxy-1-methyl-7-phenoxy-isoquinoline-3-carbonyl)-amino]-acetic acid photodegrade upon exposure to light. To reduce the photodegradation of Compound A in the tablets, various coatings were tested for their photostabilizing properties.
- Pink/Peach coating formulas tested included a coating comprising
- Formula 1: iron oxide red, iron oxide yellow and titanium dioxide (“Pink/
Peach # 1”);
Formula 2: Sunset Yellow FCF, iron oxide red and titanium dioxide (“Pink/Peach # 2”); or
