  • co-crystal former selected from aliphatic dicarboxylic acid and aromatic di and tricarboxylic acids which exhibit better solubility, dissolution rate hence enhanced bioavailability as compared to the pure drug.
  • present invention relates to a process for the preparation of pharmaceutical co-crystals of gefitinib. More particularly, the present invention relates to pharmaceutical composition of gefitinib and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
  • Gefitinib is an anilinoquinazoline (N-(3-chloro-4-fluoro-phenyl)-7-methoxy- 6-(3-morpho!in-4-ylpropoxy) quinazolin-4-amine) with the chemical name 4- Quinazolinamine, N-(3-chloro-4-fluorophenyl)-7-methoxy-6-[3-4-mo holin) propoxy]. It has the molecular formula C 22 H24C1FN403, a relative molecular mass of 446.9 and is a white-colored powder. Gefitinib is a free base.
  • Gefitinib can be defined as sparingly soluble at pH 1, but is practically insoluble above pH 7, with the solubility dropping sharply between pH 4 and pH 6.
  • Gefitinib is freely soluble in glacial acetic acid and dimethylsulphoxide, soluble in pyridine, sparingly soluble in tetrahydrofuran, and slightly soluble in methanol, ethanol (99.5%), ethyl acetate, propan-2-ol and Acetonitrile.
  • Gefitinib is an anticancer drug commonly used for the treatment of non- small-cell lung and breast cancer.
  • Gefitinib acts as an inhibitor of mutated or overactive epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) by binding to the ATP binding site. Because epidermal growth factors are responsible for controlling cell growth and proliferation, a mutated form would likely facilitate cancer growth and development.
  • EGFR inhibitor gefitinib was approved by Food and Drug Administration as third-line therapy for non-small-cell lung cancer.
  • Gefitinib was active against non-small-cell lung cancer across a broad range of doses, and in randomized phase II trials, response rate of 9% to 19% were reported with the use of doses of 250 or 500 mg per day.
  • Gefitinib is sparingly soluble in aqueous solution (0.027 mg/mL).
  • Gefitinib is a selective epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosin kinase inhibitor.
  • EGFR epidermal growth factor receptor
  • Many titles in the literature refer to Gefitinib as a "specific" or "selective" inhibitor of EGFR.
  • Gefitinib binds at the ATP site of the T (tyrosine Kinase) region, a region that is highly conserved across the various transmembrane TKs.
  • Co-crystals have attracted phenomenal interest in recent years for their potential for improving the physicochemical properties of drug substances. Apart from offering potential improvements in solubility, dissolution rate, bioavailability and physical stability, pharmaceutical co-crystals can enhance other essential properties of the APIs such as flowability, chemical stability, compressability and hygroscopicity.
  • Co-crystals are homogeneous solid phases containing two or more neutral molecular components in a crystal lattice with defined stoichiometry, which are solids at room temperature and are held together by weak interactions, mainly hydrogen bonding. In co-crystals at least one component is molecular and a solid at room temperature i.e.
  • API in pharmaceutical compositions can exist in variety of distinct solid forms and each form exhibit unique physiochemical properties such as morphology, hygroscopicity and more significantly the solubility.
  • the desirable molecular pharmacological properties of some of the potentially useful drug compound could not be utilized to its maximum potential because the physical properties of the bulk compound show unfavorable bioavailability, unwanted processing characteristics, and unacceptable shelf life. Therefore, the active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) in pharmaceutical compositions can be prepared in a variety of different chemical forms to address these issues.
  • the current methods of altering the solid state properties of API include exploitation of polymorphs, salts, hydrates, and solvates.
  • the crystalline polymorphs typically have different solubility from one another, such that a more thermodynamically stable polymorph is less soluble than a less thermodynamically stable polymorph.
  • Pharmaceutical co-crystals can also differ in properties such as shelf-life, bioavailability, morphology, vapor pressure, density, color, and compressibility. Accordingly, variation of the crystalline state of an API is one of many ways in which to modulate the physical properties thereof.
  • New forms of APIs having improved properties such as increased aqueous solubility and stability in oral formulations is always preferred. It is also advantageous to improve the processability and crystallization of formulation so as to avoid obtaining the needle shaped crystals which causes aggregation and thus affects the compression properties and poses difficulties in tablet making. It is also desirable to increase the dissolution rate of API- in aqueous solution which eventually increases its bioavailability and thus provide a more rapid onset to therapeutic effect.
  • the new co- crystalline forms of APIs can be obtained as free acid, free base, zwitterions, salts, etc. which improve the properties of APIs as compared to such APIs in a non-co-crystalline state.

  • US patent application no. 20050209229 concerns a first solvate that occurs in the presence of methanol which is designated as Form 2 ZD 1839 MeOH solvate, a second solvate that occurs in the presence of dimethyl sulphoxide which is designated as Form 3 ZD 1839 DMSO solvate and a trihydrate that occurs in the presence of water which is designated Form 5 ZD 1839 trihydrate.

Both dry grinding and liquid-assisted grinding (with few drops of absolute ethanol, also known as solvent drop grinding, SDG) was employed for the cocrystal synthesis. The grinded material was then transferred to round bottom flask and dissolved in 10-15 mL of isopropanol and water mixture (1 : 1, v/v). The resulting mixture was stirred at 50-60°C for 30 min to dissolve the solute.
  • SDG solvent drop grinding
  • amorphous gefitinib and succinic acid (26.42 mg) was taken in 1 :1 stoichiometric molar ratio and both components grinded with the help of mortar and pestle. The grinded material was then transferred to round bottom flask and dissolved in 20 mL of acetonitrile. The resulting mixture was stirred at 60-70°C for 30 min to dissolve the compound. The resulting mixture was filtered to remove the traces of undissolved compound and filtrate was kept for crystallization for 24h. Needle type crystals were obtained which were characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction, powder X-ray diffraction, DSC and TGA techniques. These cocrystals were also produced from acetone as well as from n-propanol.
  • Block type crystals were observed in the crystallization flask which was characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction, melting point, powder X-ray diffraction, DSC and TGA techniques. These cocrystals were also produced from n-butanol, water, ethyl acetate and nitromethane solvents.
  • Cocrystal lization of gefitinib with adipic acid produced four different cocrystals having different pharmaceutical compositions depending on the solvent of crystallization.
  • Ethanol-water mixture (1 :1 v/v) gave needle (1 :1, gefitinib: adipic acid with two molecules of water), and block (l :l ,gefitinib:adipic acid with ten water molecules and one molecule of ethanol) shaped cocrystals.
  • crystallization from n- butanol produced block types crystals (1 :1, gefitinib: adipic acid with one water molecule).
  • Cocrystallization of gefitinib and terephthalic acid yielded two different cocrystal compositions depending on the solvent of crystallization.
  • Cocrystallization form ethanol-water mixture (1 :1, v/v) gave plate type crystals with 1 :1 ratio of gefitinib and terephthalic acid along with two molecules of water molecule, while crystallization from ethyl acetate produced again plate type crystals however with l :0.5ratio of gefitinib and terephthalic acid which also includes two water molecules.
  • EXAMPLE 10 CO-CRYSTALS WITH P-AMINO BENZOIC ACID (G-PABA)
  • Novel co-crystals of gefitinib have improved bioavailability compared to the other known forms.

Abstract

L'invention concerne des cocristaux pharmaceutiques de gefitinib, l'agent de formation du cocristal étant choisi parmi un acide dicarboxylique aliphatique et des acides dicarboxyliques et tricarboxyliques aromatiques présentant une meilleure vitesse de solubilité et de dissolution, et donc une meilleure biodisponibilité par rapport au médicament mère.
