[0036] The term “pharmaceutically acceptable” indicates that the indicated material does not have properties that would cause a reasonably prudent medical practitioner to avoid administration of the material to a patient, taking into consideration the disease or conditions to be treated and the respective route of administration. For example, it is commonly required that such a material be essentially sterile, e.g., for injectables. [0037] In the present context, the term “therapeutically effective” or “effective amount” indicates that the materials or amount of material is effective to prevent, alleviate, or ameliorate one or more symptoms of a disease or medical condition, and/or to prolong the survival of the subject being treated. The therapeutically effective amount will vary depending on the compound, the disorder or condition and its severity and the age, weight, etc., of the mammal to be treated. For example, an effective amount is an amount sufficient to effectuate a beneficial or desired clinical result. The effective amounts can be provided all at once in a single administration or in fractional amounts that provide the effective amount in several administrations. The precise determination of what would be considered an effective amount may be based on factors individual to each subject, including their size, age, injury, and/or disease or injury being treated, and amount of time since the injury occurred or the disease began. One skilled in the art will be able to determine the effective amount for a given subject based on these considerations which are routine in the art.

[0080] For preparing solid compositions such as tablets, the principal active ingredient may be mixed with a pharmaceutical excipient to form a solid preformulation composition containing a homogeneous mixture of Compound I, and any of its forms as described herein. When referring to these preformulation compositions as homogeneous, the active ingredient may be dispersed evenly throughout the composition so that the composition may be readily subdivided into equally effective unit dosage forms such as tablets, pills and capsules. [0081] The tablets or pills of Compound I, and any of its for s as described herein, may be coated or otherwise compounded to provide a dosage form affording the advantage of prolonged action, or to protect from the acid conditions of the stomach. For example, the tablet or pill can include an inner dosage and an outer dosage component, the latter being in the form of an envelope over the former. The two components can be separated by an enteric layer that serves to resist disintegration in the stomach and permit the inner component to pass intact into the duodenum or to be delayed in release. A variety of materials can be used for such enteric layers or coatings, such materials including a number of polymeric acids and mixtures of polymeric acids with such materials as shellac, cetyl alcohol and cellulose acetate.
[0082] In another aspect, the present disclosure provides kits or containers that include a Compound I, and any of its forms as described herein, or any of the pharmaceutical compositions thereof described herein. In some embodiments, the compound or composition is packaged, e.g., in a vial, bottle, flask, which may be further packaged, e.g., within a box, envelope, or bag; the compound or composition is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration or similar regulatory agency for administration to a mammal, e.g., a human; the compound or composition is approved for administration to a mammal, e.g., a human, for a bromodomain protein mediated disease or condition; the kit or container disclosed herein may include written instructions for use and/or other indication that the compound or composition is suitable or approved for administration to a mammal, e.g., a human, for a bromodomain-mediated disease or condition; and the compound or composition may be packaged in unit dose or single dose form, e.g., single dose pills, capsules, or the like.
[0083] The amounts of various compounds to be administered can be determined by standard procedures taking into account factors such as the compound activity (in vitro, e.g. the compound IC50 vs. target, or in vivo activity in animal efficacy models), pharmacokinetic results in animal models (e.g. biological half-life or bioavailability), the age, size, and weight of the subject, and the disorder associated with the subject. The importance of these and other factors are well known to those of ordinary skill in the art. Generally, a dose will be in the range of about 0.01 to 50 mg/kg, also about 0.1 to 20 mg/kg of the subject being treated. Multiple doses may be used.
4. Dosing
[0084] The specific dose level of Compound I, and any of its forms as described herein, for any particular subject will depend upon a variety of factors including the activity of the specific compound employed, the age, body weight, general health, sex, diet, time of administration, route of administration, and rate of excretion, drug combination and the severity of the particular disease in the subject undergoing therapy. For example, a dosage may be expressed as a number of milligrams of a compound described herein per kilogram of the subject’s body weight (mg/kg). Dosages of between about 0.1 and 150 mg/kg may be appropriate. In some embodiments, about 0.1 and 100 mg/kg may be appropriate. In other embodiments a dosage of between 0.5 and 60 mg/kg may be appropriate. In some embodiments, a dosage of from about 0.0001 to about 100 mg per kg of body weight per day, from about 0.001 to about 50 mg of compound per kg of body weight, or from about 0.01 to about 10 mg of compound per kg of body weight may be appropriate. Normalizing according to the subject’s body weight is particularly useful when adjusting dosages between subjects of widely disparate size, such as occurs when using the drug in both children and adult humans or when converting an effective dosage in a non-human subject such as dog to a dosage suitable for a human subject.
5. Disease indications and modulation of Adenosine A 21s receptor
[0085] Compound I is a prodrug of Compound II. In some cases, prodrugs such as Compound I can be hydrolyzed by esterases (e.g., in gastrointestinal tract and/or in blood) and converted into Compound II in an aqueous solution. In some cases, acid labile prodrugs such as Compound I can be converted into Compound II in an acidic environment (e.g., in the stomach). In some cases, prodrugs, which are stable in the acidic environment and/or stable against hydrolysis by esterases, may not be a good prodrug candidate for Compound II. In some cases, formulation and/or bioavailability of the prodrug, i.e., Compound I may depend on the solid form of Compound I used.
[0086] In one aspect, the compounds, compositions, and/or formulations disclosed herein can be used to treat cancer. On endothelial cells, for example, adenosine can bind to the A2B adenosine receptors, thereby stimulating angiogenesis. On T cells, A2B adenosine receptor stimulation can lead to type I protein kinase A (PKA) isoform activation that can hamper T cell activation through inhibition of T-cell antigen receptor (TCR) proximal kinases Lck and Fyn. The pro-metastatic Fra-1 transcription factor can also induce A2B adenosine receptor expression on cancer cells, and thus A2B adenosine receptor antagonist can inhibit metastasis of Fra-1 -expressing cells. A2B adenosine receptor signaling activation can impair antigen presentation and can also inhibit signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) activation. The diversity of signaling and biological activities of A2B adenosine receptor can render it an attractive cancer target to promote anti-tumor immunity and suppress tumor cell metastasis.
[0087] In another aspect, the compounds, compositions, and/or formulations disclosed herein can be used to treat fibrosis. A commonly ingested adenosine receptor antagonist, caffeine, can block the development of hepatic fibrosis, an effect that may explain the epidemiologic finding that coffee drinking, in a dose-dependent fashion, can reduce the likelihood of death from liver disease. A2B adenosine receptors can also play a role in the pathogenesis of interstitial fibrosis. Adenosine, acting at A2B adenosine receptors, can stimulate hepatic stellate cell-mediated fibrosis of the liver by increasing production of collagen I and III via two distinct mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) -dependent pathways, extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) and p38MAPK, respectively. Over activation of A2B adenosine receptors can be involved in liver, lung and heart fibrosis. Accordingly, A2B adenosine receptors may be a good therapeutic target for fibrosis of the liver, lungs, heart, and/or skin.
[0088] In another aspect, the compounds, compositions, and/or formulations disclosed herein can be used to treat diabetes and/or obesity. Insensitivity to insulin can exacerbate diabetes and/or obesity. Insulin sensitivity can be decreased by the interaction of adenosine with A2B adenosine receptors. Thus, blocking the A2B adenosine receptors of individuals with diabetes and/or obesity can benefit patients with these disorders.
[0089] In another aspect, the compounds, compositions, and/or formulations disclosed herein can be used to treat neurological disorders, such as dementias and Alzheimer's disease. Adenosine acting at A2B adenosine receptors can over-stimulate cerebral interleukin 6 (IL-6), a cytokine associated with dementias and Alzheimer's disease. Inhibiting the binding of adenosine to A2B adenosine receptors can therefore mitigate those neurological disorders that are produced by IL-6.
[0090] In another aspect, the compounds, compositions, and/or formulations disclosed herein can be used to treat type I hypersensitivity disorders, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, hay fever, and atopic eczema. These type I hypersensitivity disorders can be stimulated by mast cells binding to A2B adenosine receptors. Therefore, blocking A2B adenosine receptors can provide a therapeutic benefit against such disorders.
[0091] In some embodiments, provided herein is a method for treating a disease or condition mediated, at least in part, by the A2B adenosine receptor in a mammal, the method comprising administering to the mammal a therapeutically effective amount of any crystalline form of Compound I described herein, or any composition described herein.
[0092] In some embodiments, the disease or condition is selected from the group consisting of cardiovascular diseases, fibrosis, neurological disorders, type I hypersensitivity disorders, chronic and acute liver diseases, lung diseases, renal diseases, diabetes, obesity, and cancer. In some embodiments, the cancer is a hormone-related cancer. In some embodiments, the hormone -related cancer is breast cancer, endometrial cancer, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, testicular cancer, thyroid cancer or osteosarcoma. In some embodiments, the hormone-related cancer is metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer. In some embodiments, the hormone -related cancer is breast cancer.
[0093] In certain embodiments, the present disclosure provides use of Compound I, and any of its forms as described herein, or any of the pharmaceutical compositions thereof described herein in the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of a disease or condition as described herein. In other embodiments, the present disclosure provides Compound I, and any of its forms as described herein, or any of the pharmaceutical compositions thereof described herein for use in treating a disease or condition as described herein.
[0094] Provided is the use of any crystalline form of Compound I described herein, or any composition described herein, for treating a disease or condition mediated, at least in part, by the A2B adenosine receptor in a mammal. Provided is the use of any crystalline form of Compound I described herein, or any composition described herein, for the manufacture of a medicament for treating a disease or condition mediated, at least in part, by the A2B adenosine receptor in a mammal.

[0099] Table 1-4 below provides a summary of slow evaporation experiments. Approximately 15 mg of starting material (Compound I) was dissolved in 0.2-2.0 mL corresponding solvent in a 3-mL glass vial. If not dissolved completely, suspensions were filtered using a 0.45 pm PTFE membrane and the filtrates were used for the follow-up steps. The visually clear solutions were subjected to evaporation at RT in vials sealed by Parafilm® (poke 5 small holes). The solids were isolated for XRPD analysis.

[0100] Table 1-5 below provides a summary of slow cooling experiments. Approximately 15 mg of starting material (Compound I) was suspended in 0.5-1.5 mL of corresponding solvent in a 3-mL glass vial at RT. The suspension was then heated to 50 °C, equilibrated for about two hours and filtered to a new vial using a 0.45 pm PTLE membrane. Liltrates were slowly cooled down to 5 °C at a rate of 0.1 °C/min. The obtained solids were kept isothermal at 5 °C before isolation for XRPD analysis.

* Clear solution was obtained after slow cooling and further storage at - 20 °C, which was transferred to evaporate at RT.
[0101] Two forms of Compound I, Form A and Form B, were obtained during screening. Example 2. Compound I Form A
[0102] FIG. 1 shows the XRPD spectrum for Form A. For XRPD analysis, a PANalytical X’Pert3 X-ray powder diffract meter was used. The XRPD parameters used are listed in Table 2-1.
Table 2-1
Figure imgf000021_0001
[0103] TGA data were collected using a TA Q5000/ Discovery 5500 TGA from TA Instruments. DSC was performed using a TA Discovery 2500 DSC from TA Instruments. Table 2-2 provides the parameters for TGA/DSC.
Table 2-2
Figure imgf000021_0002
[0104] TGA and DSC results for Compound I Form A are displayed in FIG. 2. A weight loss of 2.0% up to 150 °C was observed on the TGA curve. A sharp endotherm at about 130.7 °C (onset) was observed on the DSC curve. Polarized light microscopy (PLM) imaging of Form A indicated mainly irregular particles with size < 20 pm. Based on the small TGA weight loss and sharp DSC signal, Form A is an anhydrate.
[0105] DVS was measured via a SMS (Surface Measurement Systems) DVS Intrinsic. The relative humidity at 25 °C were calibrated against deliquescence point of LiCl, Mg(NO;h and KC1. Parameters for the DVS test are listed in Table 2-3. Table 2-3
Figure imgf000022_0001
[0106] DVS of Form A is shown in FIG. 3 and showed that water uptake increased from 0.04% to 0.33% in going from 70% RH to 95% RH.
[0107] Agilent 1260 HPLC was utilized for HPLC analysis. Table 2-4 provides the HPLC conditions. HPLC confirmed the purity of Form A was 98.62% (area).
Table 2-4
Figure imgf000022_0002
Example 3. Compound I Form B
[0108] Compound I Form B was obtained via adding anti-solvent H O into a NMP solution of Compound I, followed by drying at RT under vacuum. XRPD and TGA/DSC results for Form B are displayed in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 respectively. The Form B analysis was conducted on the same instrumentation as the analysis for Form A in Example 2.
[0109] TGA showed a weight loss of 2.2% up to 150 °C. DSC showed a weak endotherm at 119.4 °C (peak) and a sharp endothermic peak at 130.9 °C (peak). After heating Form B to 119 °C and cooling to RT, Form A was obtained. Therefore, the endotherm at 119.4 °C signals the conversion of Form B to Form A. Based on the TGA, Form B is likely not a solvate or a hydrate.
[0110] A characterization summary for Form A and Form B is provided in Table 3-1 below.
Table 3-1
Figure imgf000023_0002
Example 4. Crystals of Compound II
[0111] Compound II was observed in samples of Compound I in alcohol solvent systems that were heated to 50 °C during the polymorph screening.
Figure imgf000023_0001
[0112] Compound II solid form was prepared via slow cooling of MeOH solution from 50 °C to 5 °C XRPD pattern is shown in Figure 6, which was consistent with Compound II. The XRPD analysis for Compound II was conducted on the same instrumentation as the analysis for Form A in Example 3. A weight loss of 1.7% up to 250 °C was observed on the TGA curve (FIG. 7, top line). On the DSC curve (FIG. 7, bottom line), a weak endotherm at 252.8 °C (peak) and a sharp endotherm at 259.7 °C (onset) were observed.
Example 5. Stability of Form A and Form B
[0113] The inter-conversion relationship between Form A and Form B was determined by slurry competition experiments in H O or MTBE at RT and 50 °C. Prior to the study, a Form A sample was used to saturate the corresponding solvent at the desired temperatures before filtration to obtain a near- saturated solution. Equal amounts (about 5 mg each) of Form A and Form B samples were weighed and then added in 1 mL of the prepared solution to form a suspension, followed by magnetically stirring (-1000 rpm) at RT and at 50 °C for about 2 days. Form A was obtained under these conditions, indicating that Form A was thermodynamically more stable than Form B in the temperature range of RT to 50 °C. Table 5-1 shows the results from this experiment.
Table 5-1
Figure imgf000024_0001
[0114] Based on the slurry competition results, Form A was further evaluated in tests for hygroscopicity, solid-state stability, kinetic solubility, stability in bio-relevant media and mechanical stability. Dynamic vapor sorption (DVS) data showed a water uptake of 0.04% at 70% RH, which increased to 0.33% at 95% RH.
[0115] Solid state stability of Form A was evaluated at 60 °C for one day, 25 °C and 60%RH and 40 °C and 75% RH for one week. No form change was observed for Form A after stability evaluation under these conditions. No change of HPFC purity was observed under 25 °C and 60% RH and under 40 °C and 75% RH after 1 week. A slight decrease in purity was observed after storage at 60 °C for 1 day.
[0116] Stability of Form A in simulated gastric fluid (SGF), fasted state simulated intestinal fluid (FaSSIF) and fed state simulated intestinal fluid (FeSSIF) at 37 °C was measured after 4 and 24 hrs. No form change was observed in all media after 4 and 24 hrs. The kinetic solubility of Form A in FaSSIF and FeSSIF was relatively low, and solubility in FeSSIF was higher than FaSSIF after 4 and 24 hrs.
Table 5-1 summarizes the results from solubility and stability testing in bio-relevant media.
Table 5-1
