  • Many drug compounds exist in one or more crystalline forms, referred to as polymorphs. These polymorphs of the same molecule exhibit different physical properties, such as melting point, solubility, hardness, etc. In such cases, the danger exists of less soluble polymorphic forms precipitating from a solution made from another more soluble but less stable form. For example, the formation of crystals in an ophthalmic solution can cause serious injury to the eye. In addition, precipitation of the drug substance may cause an apparent reduction in potency and bioavailability of the product.

As used herein, “substantially unchanged” means that the indicia that a sample exists in crystalline Form B (e.g., the presence of the unique XRPD peaks referred to herein) remain clearly discernible. As used herein, “substantial portion thereof” refers to the major portion of the sample in question, i.e., greater than 50% of the sample, undergoes conversion from Form B to the amorphous form; in some embodiments, greater than 60% of the sample undergoes conversion from Form B to the amorphous form; in some embodiments, greater than 70% of the sample undergoes conversion from Form B to the amorphous form; in some embodiments, greater than 80% of the sample undergoes conversion from Form B to the amorphous form; in some embodiments, greater than 90% of the sample undergoes conversion from Form B to the amorphous form.
  • Crystalline Form B can also be characterized with reference to the DSC profile thereof; an exemplary DSC profile thereof is as shown in FIG. 3.
  • In some embodiments of the present invention, crystalline Form B is substantially free of other solid forms. As used herein, “substantially free” refers to samples wherein the presence of alternate solid forms falls below the detection limit, i.e., less than about 10% of said solid is in a form other than crystalline Form B.
  • In addition, the crystalline Form B described herein has a differential scanning calorimetry profile as shown in FIG. 3, showing melting of Form B starting at about 25° C., and ending at about 60° C., with an endothermic peak at 254° C. attributed to decomposition of the compound.

  • As shown in Tables 3 and 4, the crystalline form of the compound 7-[3α,5α-dihydroxy-2-(3α-hydroxy-5-(3-(2,5-di chloro)thienyl)-1E-pentenyl)cyclopentyl]-5Z-heptenamide can be controlled by the choice of diluent from which the compound is crystallized using slurry crystallization methods.
    • Example 4
  • The compound 7-[3α,5α-dihydroxy-2-(3α-hydroxy-5-(3-(2,5-di chloro)thienyl)-1E-pentenyl)cyclopentyl]-5Z-heptenamide can also be crystallized employing vapor diffusion techniques. Crystalline Form A can be obtained when said compound is dissolved in a polar solvent such as acetonitrile, and then exposed to a non-polar solvent such as toluene at room temperature.
  • Alternatively, crystalline Form B can be obtained when said compound is dissolved in a polar solvent such as acetone, and then exposed to a non-aromatic, non-polar solvent such as hexane at room temperature.
    • Example 5
  • The compound 7-[3α,5α-dihydroxy-2-(3α-hydroxy-5-(3-(2,5-di chloro)thienyl)-1E-pentenyl)cyclopentyl]-5Z-heptenamide can be prepared in substantially amorphous form by exposing said compound to a temperature of at least about 40° C. for at least 12 hours.
    • Example 6
  • A sample of 5-10 milligrams of crystalline Form A was maintained at a temperature of 22±2° C. and relative humidity of 0% for 144 hours When the XRPD spectrum of the sample after being maintained at 22±2° C. and relative humidity of 0% for 144 hours (see FIG. 4A) was compared to the XRPD spectrum of the sample before being maintained under those conditions, no significant change was observed in the XRPD spectrum in that the peaks at about 12.01, 14.09, 20.14, 20.47 and 23.72 degrees 2θ were still present, indicating that crystal Form A had remained substantially unchanged. A similar lack of significant change in the XRPD pattern was also observed when a sample was stored at 40° C. for 25 minutes (see FIG. 4B).
  • In addition, another sample of 5-10 milligrams of crystalline Form A was maintained at a temperature of 22±2° C. and relative humidity of 59% for 144 hours. When the XRPD spectrum of the sample after being maintained at 22±2° C. and relative humidity of 59% for 144 hours (see FIG. 5) was compared to the XRPD spectrum of the sample before being maintained under those conditions, the XRPD spectrum revealed the presence of peaks at about 11.64, 19.57, 21.99, 22.74 and 25.06 degrees 2θ, indicating that a substantial portion of crystalline Form A had converted to crystalline Form B.
    • Example 7
  • A sample of 5-10 milligrams of crystalline Form B was maintained at a temperature of 22±2° C. and relative humidity of 59% for 120 hours. When the XRPD spectrum of the sample after being maintained at 22±2° C. and relative humidity of 59% for 120 hours (see FIG. 6A) was compared to the XRPD spectrum of the sample before being maintained under those conditions, no significant change was observed in the XRPD spectrum in that the peaks at about 11.64, 19.57, 21.99, 22.74 and 25.06 degrees 2θ were still present, indicating that crystal Form B had remained substantially unchanged. A similar lack of significant change in the XRPD pattern was also observed when a sample was stored at 40° C. for 25 minutes (see FIG. 6B).
  • In addition, another sample of 10-50 grams of crystalline Form B was maintained at a temperature of 22±2° C. and relative humidity of 0% for 120 hours. When the XRPD spectrum of the sample after being maintained at 22±2° C. and relative humidity of 0% for 120 hours (see FIG. 7) was compared to the XRPD spectrum of the sample before being maintained under those conditions, the XRPD spectrum revealed the sample to be a poorly-crystalline mixture of Forms A and B.
  • In addition, a similar sample of crystalline Form B was maintained at a temperature of 40° C. for 16 hours. When the XRPD spectrum of the sample after being maintained 40° C. for 16 hours (see FIG. 8) was compared to the XRPD spectrum of the sample before being maintained under those conditions, the XRPD spectrum revealed the disappearance of peaks at about 11.64, 19.57, 21.99, 22.74 and 25.06 degrees 2θ, indicating that a substantial portion of crystalline Form B had converted to the amorphous form.
