  • the present invention also relates to an improved process for the preparation of Venetoclax.
  • Venetoclax is chemically known as 4-(4- ⁇ [2-(4-chlorophenyl)-4,4-dimethylcyclohex- l-en- l-yl]methyl jpiperazin- 1 -yl)-N-( ⁇ 3-nitro-4-[(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-ylmethyl)amino] phenylsulfonyl)-2-(lH-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-5-yloxy)benzamide.
  • Venetoclax a selective and orally bioavailable small-molecule inhibitor of BCL-2, an anti-apoptotic protein. Over expression of BCL-2 has been demonstrated in CLL cells where it mediates tumor cell survival and has been associated with resistance to chemo therapeutics. Venetoclax helps restore the process of apoptosis by binding directly to the BCL-2 protein, displacing pro-apoptotic proteins like BIM, triggering mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization and the activation of caspases.
  • Venetoclax is approved in US as Venclexta tablet for oral administration for the treatment of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia with 17r deletion, as detected by an FDA approved test, who have received at least one prior therapy. This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on overall response rate.
  • US 8546399 B2 described Venetoclax or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof (herein after referred as US‘399).

  • WO2012/058392 Al describes solid dispersions comprising Venetoclax.
  • Polymorphism is the occurrence of different crystalline forms of a single compound and it is a property of some compounds and complexes. Thus, polymorphs are distinct solids sharing the same molecular formula, yet each polymorph may have distinct physical properties. Therefore, a single compound may give rise to a variety of polymorphic forms where each form has different and distinct physical properties, such as different solubility profiles, different melting point temperatures and/or different x-ray diffraction peaks. Since the solubility of each polymorph may vary, identifying the existence of pharmaceutical polymorphs is essential for providing pharmaceuticals with predicable solubility profiles. It is desirable to investigate all solid state forms of a drug, including all polymorphic forms, and to determine the stability, dissolution and flow properties of each polymorphic form.
  • Polymorphic forms of a compound can be distinguished in a laboratory by X-ray diffraction spectroscopy and by other methods such as, infrared spectrometry. Additionally, polymorphic forms of the same drug substance or active pharmaceutical ingredient, can be administered by itself or formulated as a drug product (also known as the final or finished dosage form), and are well known in the pharmaceutical art to affect, for example, the solubility, stability, flowability, tractability and compressibility of drug substances and the safety and efficacy of drug products.

The present invention also relates to an improved process for the preparation of Venetoclax.
Background of the Invention:
Venetoclax is chemically known as 4-(4- { [2-(4-chlorophenyl)-4,4-dimethylcyclohex- l-en- l-yl]methyl jpiperazin- 1 -yl)-N-( { 3-nitro-4-[(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-ylmethyl)amino] phenylsulfonyl)-2-(lH-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-5-yloxy)benzamide.
Venetoclax a selective and orally bioavailable small-molecule inhibitor of BCL-2, an anti-apoptotic protein. Over expression of BCL-2 has been demonstrated in CLL cells where it mediates tumor cell survival and has been associated with resistance to chemo therapeutics. Venetoclax helps restore the process of apoptosis by binding directly to the BCL-2 protein, displacing pro-apoptotic proteins like BIM, triggering mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization and the activation of caspases.
Venetoclax is approved in US as Venclexta tablet for oral administration for the treatment of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia with 17r deletion, as detected by an FDA approved test, who have received at least one prior therapy. This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on overall response rate.
US 8546399 B2 described Venetoclax or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof (herein after referred as US‘399).
WO2012/071336 Al describes various crystalline forms A, B, C and D including anhydrate, hydrated, solvated, non-solvated and salt forms of Venetoclax compound of formula- 1.
WO2012/058392 Al describes solid dispersions comprising Venetoclax.
Polymorphism is the occurrence of different crystalline forms of a single compound and it is a property of some compounds and complexes. Thus, polymorphs are distinct solids sharing the same molecular formula, yet each polymorph may have distinct physical properties. Therefore, a single compound may give rise to a variety of polymorphic forms where each form has different and distinct physical properties, such as different solubility profiles, different melting point temperatures and/or different x-ray diffraction peaks. Since the solubility of each polymorph may vary, identifying the existence of pharmaceutical polymorphs is essential for providing pharmaceuticals with predicable solubility profiles. It is desirable to investigate all solid state forms of a drug, including all polymorphic forms, and to determine the stability, dissolution and flow properties of each polymorphic form.
Polymorphic forms of a compound can be distinguished in a laboratory by X-ray diffraction spectroscopy and by other methods such as, infrared spectrometry. Additionally, polymorphic forms of the same drug substance or active pharmaceutical ingredient, can be administered by itself or formulated as a drug product (also known as the final or finished dosage form), and are well known in the pharmaceutical art to affect, for example, the solubility, stability, flowability, tractability and compressibility of drug substances and the safety and efficacy of drug products.
US‘399 also describe process for the preparation of Venetoclax which is shown in the scheme given below:

Venetoclax
US‘399 patent describes process for the preparation of Venetoclax. The said process provides Venetoclax which is contaminated with impurities.
Pharmaceutical products for administration to subjects such as humans must contain high purity drug substance preparations and pharmaceutical compositions, and be formulated into dosage forms that contain consistent amounts of an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API).
All drug substance preparations, regardless of the API, contain varying amounts of impurities. These impurities can generally be grouped into categories based on their chemical identity and include“product-related impurities”, i.e., impurities that are structurally similar to the API (e.g., enantiomers) and“process-related impurities”, i.e. impurities introduced by or resulting from the processes used to make the API.
According to the present invention, provides alternative process for preparing Venetoclax which is simple, eco-friendly, cost-effective, robust and well-suited for use on an industrial scale.

Furthermore, it is required to control the levels of these impurities in the final drug compound obtained by the manufacturing process and to ensure that the impurity is present at the lowest possible levels, even if structural determination is not possible.
Thus, the active ingredient as well as pharmaceutical preparations made therefrom requires the presence of impurities well within the limits and should comply with regulatory guidance.
