Abstract

Crystalline 2-hydroxy-N,N-dimethylethanaminium 1-(2-(5-(tert-butyl)-thiophene-2-carboxamido)-3-(4-(5-(4′-ethyl-[1,1′-bi(cyclohexan)]-3-en-4-yl)pyrimidin-2-yl)phenyl)propanoyl)azetidine-3-carboxylate salt, and methods related to synthesis and therapeutic use of the same.

Core Innovation

The invention relates to a GLP-1 receptor modulator presented as a dimethylaminoethanol (deanol) salt, including crystalline Deanol-RP-101 and specific isomeric forms Deanol-RP-102, Deanol-RP-103, and Deanol-RP-104. The disclosure identifies Deanol-RP-101 as crystalline Deanol-RP-101 corresponding to the deanol salt of RP-101 free acid, and it frames the subject matter around solid forms of these deanol salts for GLP-1 receptor activity.

The disclosure states that crystalline Deanol-RP-101 improves crystallinity, solubility, and thermal behavior versus compounds such as Cpd. No. 76 / RP-101. It also describes solid-state characterization, including XRPD characterization of crystalline forms and characteristic XRPD peak positions for FIG. 1A, FIG. 2A, and FIG. 3A, with Tables 1A/1B/1C listing peak data for the crystalline forms.

The disclosure further specifies purity thresholds and describes solid-state characterization approaches including PLM, TGA, and DSC. It also includes therapeutic use conceptually through GLP-1 receptor activation/potentiation/agonism for diseases and metabolic conditions including various forms of diabetes, obesity/excessive appetite/insufficient satiety, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), as well as pharmaceutical composition embodiments with pharmaceutically acceptable carriers/excipients.

Claims Coverage

The provided set includes one independent compound-structure claim and multiple independent crystalline-form claims, with claim-defining inventive features centered on a specified compound structure and XRPD-defined crystalline salt forms, plus a quantitative purity constraint and a pharmaceutical-composition constraint in refinements of the structure claim family. Overall, the coverage emphasizes structurally defined deanol salt compounds and specific XRPD-pattern crystalline variants.
