On 10 May 2012, after a new round of studies submitted by Arena, an FDA panel voted to recommend lorcaserin with certain restrictions and patient monitoring. The restrictions include patients with a BMI of over 30, or with a BMI over 27 and a comorbidity such as high blood pressure or type 2 diabetes.

On 27 June 2012, the FDA officially approved lorcaserin for use in the treatment of obesity for adults with a BMI equal to or greater than 30 or adults with a BMI of 27 or greater who “have at least one weight-related health condition, such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, or high cholesterol

Useful for treating obesity.

The present invention relates to stable crystalline Form I of Iorcaserin hydrochloride of Formula (IA) and processes for its preparation. The invention also relates to processes for the preparation of lorcaserin and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates and hydrates thereof.

 

front page image

Stable crystalline form I of lorcaserin hydrochloride and its process of preparation are claimed.  Represents the first patenting from Cadila on lorcaserin, which was developed and launched by Arena Pharma and Eisai.

In July 2015, Newport Premium™ reported that Cadila is potentially interested in lorcaserin.

 

Lorcaserin hydrochloride is an agonist of the 5-HT2c receptor and shows effectiveness at reducing obesity in animal models and humans developed by Arena Pharmaceuticals. It is chemically represented as (R)-8-chloro-l -methyl -2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-lH-3-benzazepine hydrochloride having Formula (I) as depicted herein below.

(IA)

U.S. Patent No. 6,953,787 B2 discloses compound of Formula (I) and pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvates or hydrates thereof and process for preparation thereof.

U.S. Patent No. 8,168,624 B2 discloses (R)-8-chloro-l-methyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-lH-3-benzazepine hydrochloride hemihydrate and process for its preparation. The patent also discloses crystalline Form I, Form II and Form III of (R)-8-chloro-l-methyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-lH-3-benzazepine hydrochloride. The crystalline Form

I and Form II are reported as anhydrous, non-solvated crystal forms. The crystalline Form III displays a dehydration feature calculated as a 3.7% weight loss which is consistent with the theoretical weight loss of 3.7% for a hemihydrate.

The patent discloses that anhydrous Form I and Form II readily converts to a hemihydrate, upon exposure to moisture. The dynamic vapor sorption (DVS) data for each of the three crystal forms reveals the hygroscopic nature of both Forms I and II, which readily adsorb moisture at relative humidity (RH) greater than about 40-60%. In addition, both Forms I and II were calculated to adsorb about 3.8% moisture between about 40 and about 80% RH which is consistent with conversion to the hemihydrate (Form III). X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) carried out on both Forms I and II after the DVS cycle confirmed this conversion. In contrast, the DVS data in connection with Form III shows that it is substantially non-hygroscopic, adsorbing less than 0.5% water at 90% RH and the XRPD pattern showed no change in crystalline form after the DVS cycle.

Example-7: Preparation of crystalline Form I of lorcaserin hydrochloride. In a round bottom flask, 560g of methyl ethyl ketone and 40 ml water were taken and 100 g of 8-chloro-l-methyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-lH-3-benzazepine was added and stirred for 10 minutes. The reaction mass heated to 55 to 60°C and 19.3 g of. L-(+)-tartaric acid was added slowly and stirred for one to two hours. The reaction mass was further stirred at 10-15°C for an hour and the product was filtered and washed with a mixture of methyl ethyl ketone and water. The wet cake and 150 ml methyl ethyl ketone were taken in another flask and heated to 75-80°C. 20-25 ml water was, added and stirred for an hour. Further, the reaction mass was stirred for an hour at 0-5°C. The product was filtered and washed with methyl ethyl ketone.

100 g tartrate salt of 8-chloro-l-methyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-lH-3-benzazepine and 300 mL water were taken in another round bottom flask. 200 mL methylene dichloride was added and the reaction mass was cooled to 10-20°C. 17.2 g sodium hydroxide dissolved in 89 ml water was added into the reaction mass at 10-20°C. The reaction mass was stirred for an hour at 25-30°C and the layers were separated. The solvent was removed from the organic layer under vacuum and then 100 mL ethyl acetate was added into that and distilled out. Further, 100 mL ethyl acetate was added and stirred for 15 minutes. The reaction mass was filtered through a hyflow bed and the filtrate was treated with dry HC1 gas till a pH of 1.5 to 2.5 was obtained at 0-10°C and it was stirred for about 30 minutes to an hour. The product was then filtered and washed with ethyl acetate and then dried in a vacuum oven at 50°C to 55°C for 2 hours. The product was further dried at 90°C to 110°C for 20 hours to obtain crystalline Form I of lorcaserin hydrochloride. Yield: 87.5-98.6 %.

Example-8: Preparation of crystalline Form I of lorcaserin hydrochloride

In a round bottom flask, 2.20 g lorcaserin, 30 mL methylene chloride, 17.4 mL of 1M HCI in ether were added and the mixture was stirred for 5-15 minutes at room temperature. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure to give a white solid. This solid was again dissolved in 30 ml methylene chloride, 17.4 mL of 1M HCI solution and stirred for 5-15 minutes at room temperature. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure to give lorcaserin hydrochloride. The product was dried in a vacuum oven at 50°C to 55°C for 2 hours. The product was further dried at 90°C to 110°C for 20 hours to obtain crystalline Form I of lorcaserin hydrochloride.

Example-9: Preparation of crystalline Form I lorcaserin hydrochloride

50 g of lorcaserin hydrochloride hemihydrate and 50 g of hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose (HPMC) 3CPC were mixed in a blender at 25°C to 35°C. The mixture was mixed for 30 minutes and unloaded. The solid thus obtained was dried in a vacuum oven at 50°C to 55°C for 2 hours. The product was further dried at 90°C to 110°C for 20 hours to obtain crystalline Form I of lorcaserin hydrochloride.

Occurrence

Trimyristin is found naturally in many vegetable fats and oils.

Isolation from nutmeg

Seed of nutmeg contains trimyristin

The isolation of trimyristin from powdered nutmeg is a common introductory-level college organic chemistry experiment. It is an uncommonly simple natural product extraction because nutmeg oil generally consists of over eighty percent trimyristin. Trimyristin makes up between 20-25% of the overall mass of dried, ground nutmeg. Separation is generally carried out by steam distillation and purification uses extraction from ether followed by distillation or rotary evaporation to remove the volatile solvent. The extraction of trimyristin can also be done with diethyl ether at room temperature, due to its high solubility in the ether. The experiment is frequently included in curricula, both for its relative ease and to provide instruction in these techniques.

Canagliflozin (INN, trade name Invokana) is a drug of the gliflozin class, used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.[1][2] It was developed by Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma and is marketed under license by Janssen, a division of Johnson & Johnson.[3]

U.S. Patent No, 7,943,788 B2 (the ‘788 patent) discloses canagliflozin or salts thereof and the process for its preparation.

U.S. Patent Nos. 7,943,582 B2 and 8,513,202 B2 discloses crystalline form of 1 -(P-D-glucopyranosyl)-4-methyl-3-[5-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-thienylmethyl] benzene hemihydrate and process for preparation thereof. The US ‘582 B2 and US ‘202 B2 further discloses that preparation of the crystalline form of hemi-hydrate canagliflozin typically involves dissolving in a good solvent (e.g. ketones or esters) crude or amorphous compound prepared in accordance with the procedures described in WO 2005/012326 pamphlet, and adding water and a poor solvent (e.g. alkanes or ethers) to the resulting solution, followed by filtration.

U.S. PG-Pub. No. 2013/0237487 Al (the US ‘487 Al) discloses amorphous dapagliflozin and amorphous canagliflozin. The US ‘487 Al also discloses 1:1 crystalline complex of canagliflozin with L-proline (Form CS1), ethanol solvate of a 1: 1 crystalline complex of canagliflozin with D-proline (Form CS2), 1 :1 crystalline complex of canagliflozin with L-phenylalanine (Form CS3), 1:1 crystalline complex of canagliflozin with D-proline (Form CS4).

The US ‘487 Al discloses preparation of amorphous canagliflozin by adding its heated toluene solution into n-heptane. After drying in vacuo the product was obtained as a white solid of with melting point of 54.7°C to 72.0°C. However, upon repetition of the said experiment, the obtained amorphous canagliflozin was having higher amount of residual solvents. Therefore, the amorphous canagliflozin obtained by process as disclosed in US ‘487 Al is not suitable for pharmaceutical preparations.

The US ‘487 Al further discloses that amorphous canagliflozin obtained by the above process is hygroscopic in nature which was confirmed by Dynamic vapor sorption (DVS) analysis. Further, it was observed that the amorphous form underwent a physical change between the sorption/desorption cycle, making the sorption/desorption behavior different between the two cycles. The physical change that occurred was determined to be a conversion or partial conversion from the amorphous state to a crystalline state. This change was supported by a change in the overall appearance of the sample as the humidity increased from 70% to 90% RH.

The canagliflozin assessment report EMA/718531/2013 published by EMEA discloses that Canagliflozin hemihydrate is a white to off-white powder^ practically insoluble in water and freely soluble in ethanol and non-hygroscopic. Polymorphism has been observed for canagliflozin and the manufactured Form I is a hemihydrate, and an unstable amorphous Form II. Form I is consistently produced by the proposed commercial synthesis process. Therefore, it is evident from the prior art that the reported amorphous form of canagliflozin is unstable and hygroscopic as well as not suitable for pharmaceutical preparations due to higher amount of residual solvents above the ICH acceptable limits.

Medical use

    1. Canagliflozin is an antidiabetic drug used to improve glycemic control in people with type 2 diabetes. In extensive clinical trials, canagliflozin produced a consistent dose-dependent reduction in HbA1c of 0.77% to 1.16% when administered as monotherapy, combination with metformin, combination with metformin & Sulfonyulrea, combination with metformin & pioglitazone and In combination with insulin from a baselines of 7.8% to 8.1%, in combination with metformin, or in combination with metformin and a sulfonylurea. When added to metformin Canagliflozin 100mg was shown to be non-inferior to both Sitagliptin 100mg and glimiperide in reductions on HbA1c at one year, whilst canagliflozin 300mg successfully demontrated statistical superiority over both Sitagliptin and glimiperide in HbA1c reductions. Secondary efficacy endpoint of superior body weight reduction and blood pressure reduction (versus Sitagliptin and glimiperide)) were observed as well. Canagliflozin produces beneficial effects on HDL cholesterol whilst increasing LDL cholesterol to produce no change in total cholesterol.[4][5]

      Contraindications

      Canagliflozin has proven to be clinically effective in people with moderate renal failure and treatment can be continued in patients with renal impairment.

      Adverse effects

      Canagliflozin, as is common with all sglt2 inhibitors, increased (generally mild) urinary tract infections, genital fungal infections, thirst,[6] LDL cholesterol, and was associated with increased urination and episodes of low blood pressure.

      There are concerns it may increase the risk of diabetic ketoacidosis.[7]

      Cardiovascular problems have been discussed with this class of drugs.[citation needed] The pre-specified endpoint for cardiovascular safety in the canagliflozin clinical development program was Major Cardiovascular Events Plus (MACE-Plus), defined as the occurrence of any of the following events: cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke, or unstable angina leading to hospitalization. This endpoint occurred in more people in the placebo group (20.5%) than in the canagliflozin treated group (18.9%).

      Nonetheless, an FDA advisory committee expressed concern regarding the cardiovascular safety of canagliflozin. A greater number of cardiovascular events was observed during the first 30 days of treatment in canagliflozin treated people (0.45%) relative to placebo treated people (0.07%), suggesting an early period of enhanced cardiovascular risk. In addition, there was an increased risk of stroke in canagliflozin treated people. However none of these effects were seen as statistically significant. Additional cardiovascular safety data from the ongoing CANVAS trial is expected in 2015.[8]

      Interactions

      The drug may increase the risk of dehydration in combination with diuretic drugs.

      Because it increases renal excretion of glucose, treatment with canagliflozin prevents renal reabsorption of 1,5-anhydroglucitol, leading to artifactual decreases in serum 1,5-anhydroglucitol; it can therefore interfere with the use of serum 1,5-anhydroglucitol (assay trade name, GlycoMark) as a measure of postprandial glucose excursions.[9]

      Mechanism of action

      Canagliflozin is an inhibitor of subtype 2 sodium-glucose transport protein (SGLT2), which is responsible for at least 90% of the renal glucose reabsorption (SGLT1 being responsible for the remaining 10%). Blocking this transporter causes up to 119 grams of blood glucose per day to be eliminated through the urine,[10] corresponding to 476 kilocalories. Additional water is eliminated by osmotic diuresis, resulting in a lowering of blood pressure.

      This mechanism is associated with a low risk of hypoglycaemia (too low blood glucose) compared to other antidiabetic drugs such as sulfonylurea derivatives and insulin.[11]

      History

      On July 4, 2011, the European Medicines Agency approved a paediatric investigation plan and granted both a deferral and a waiver for canagliflozin (EMEA-001030-PIP01-10) in accordance with EC Regulation No.1901/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council.[12]

      In March 2013, canagliflozin became the first SGLT2 inhibitor to be approved in the United States.[13]

There is described in WO 2005/012326 pamphlet 1-(β-D-glucopyranosyl)-4-methyl-3-[5-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-thienylmethyl]benzene of formula (I):

 

Example 1 Crystalline 1-(β-D-glucopyranosyl)-4-methyl-3-[5-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-thienylmethyl]benzene hemihydrate1-(β-D-glucopyranosyl)-4-methyl-3-[5-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-thienylmethyl]benzene was prepared in a similar manner as described in WO 2005/012326.

(1) To a solution of 5-bromo-1-[5-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-thienylmethyl]-2-methylbenzene (1, 28.9 g) in tetrahydrofuran (480 ml) and toluene (480 ml) was added n-butyllithium (1.6M hexane solution, 50.0 ml) dropwise at −67 to −70° C. under argon atmosphere, and the mixture was stirred for 20 minutes at the same temperature. Thereto was added a solution of 2 (34.0 g) in toluene (240 ml) dropwise at the same temperature, and the mixture was further stirred for 1 hour at the same temperature. Subsequently, thereto was added a solution of methanesulfonic acid (21.0 g) in methanol (480 ml) dropwise, and the resulting mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred for 17 hours. The mixture was cooled under ice—water cooling, and thereto was added a saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution. The mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate, and the combined organic layer was washed with brine and dried over magnesium sulfate. The insoluble was filtered off and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was triturated with toluene (100 ml)—hexane (400 ml) to give 1-(1-methoxyglucopyranosyl)-4-methyl-3-[5-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-thienylmethyl]-benzene (3) (31.6 g). APCI-Mass m/Z 492 (M+NH4).

The mixture was allowed to warm to 0° C. and stirred for 2 hours. At the same temperature, a saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution (800 ml) was added, and the mixture was stirred for 30 minutes. The organic solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, and the residue was poured into water and extracted with ethyl acetate twice. The organic layer was washed with water twice, dried over magnesium sulfate and treated with activated carbon. The insoluble was filtered off and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was dissolved in ethyl acetate (300 ml), and thereto were added diethyl ether (600 ml) and H2O (6 ml). The mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight, and the precipitate was collected, washed with ethyl acetate-diethyl ether (1:4) and dried under reduced pressure at room temperature to give 1-(β-D-glucopyranosyl)-4-methyl-3-[5-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-thienylmethyl]benzene hemihydrate (33.5 g) as colorless crystals.

there are a significant number of other β-C-arylglucoside derived drug candidates, most of which differ only in the aglycone moiety (i.e., these compounds comprise a central 1-deoxy-glucose ring moiety that is arylated at CI). It is this fact that makes them attractive targets for a novel synthetic platform technology, since a single methodology should be able to furnish a plurality of products. Among β-C-arylglucosides that possess known SGLT2 inhibition also currently in clinical development are canagliflozin, empagliflozin, and ipragliflozin.

Dapagliflozin                             Canagliflozin

Ipragliflozin …………………Empagliflozin

[0007] A series of synthetic methods have been reported in the peer-reviewed and patent literature that can be used for the preparation of β-C-arylglucosides. These methods are described below and are referred herein as the gluconolactone method, the metalated glucal method, the glucal epoxide method and the glycosyl leaving group substitution method.

[0008] The gluconolactone method: In 1988 and 1989 a general method was reported to prepare C-arylglucosides from tetra-6>-benzyl protected gluconolactone, which is an oxidized derivative of glucose (see J. Org. Chem. 1988, 53, 752-753 and J. Org. Chem. 1989, 54, 610- 612). The method comprises: 1) addition of an aryllithium derivative to the hydroxy-protected gluconolactone to form a hemiketal (a.k.ci., a lactol), and 2) reduction of the resultant hemiketal with triethylsilane in the presence of boron trifluoride etherate. Disadvantages of this classical, but very commonly applied method for β-C-arylglucoside synthesis include:

1) poor “redox economy” (see J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2008, 130, 17938-17954 and Anderson, N. G. Practical Process Research & Development, 1st Ed.; Academic Press, 2000 (ISBN- 10: 0120594757); pg 38)— that is, the oxidation state of the carbon atom at CI, with respect to glucose, is oxidized in the gluconolactone and then following the arylation step is reduced to provide the requisite oxidation state of the final product. 2) due to a lack of stereospecificity, the desired β-C-arylglucoside is formed along with the undesired a-C-arylglucoside stereoisomer (this has been partially addressed by the use of hindered trialkylsilane reducing agents (see Tetrahedron: Asymmetry 2003, 14, 3243-3247) or by conversion of the hemiketal to a methyl ketal prior to reduction (see J. Org. Chem. 2007, 72, 9746-9749 and U.S. Patent 7,375,213)).

[0009] The metalated glucal method: U.S. Patent 7,847,074 discloses preparation of SGLT2 inhibitors that involves the coupling of a hydroxy-protected glucal that is metalated at CI with an aryl halide in the presence of a transition metal catalyst. Following the coupling step, the requisite formal addition of water to the C-arylglucal double bond to provide the desired C-aryl glucoside is effected using i) hydroboration and oxidation, or ii) epoxidation and reduction, or iii) dihydroxylation and reduction. In each case, the metalated glucal method represents poor redox economy because oxidation and reduction reactions must be conducted to establish the requisite oxidation states of the individual CI and C2 carbon atoms.

[0010] U.S. Pat. Appl. 2005/0233988 discloses the utilization of a Suzuki reaction between a CI -boronic acid or boronic ester substituted hydroxy-protected glucal and an aryl halide in the presence of a palladium catalyst. The resulting 1- C-arylglucal is then formally hydrated to provide the desired 1- C-aryl glucoside skeleton by use of a reduction step followed by an oxidation step. The synthesis of the boronic acid and its subsequent Suzuki reaction, reduction and oxidation, together, comprise a relatively long synthetic approach to C-arylglucosides and exhibits poor redox economy. Moreover, the coupling catalyst comprises palladium which is toxic and therefore should be controlled to very low levels in the drug substance.

R = protecting group; R’ = H or alkyl

[0011] The glucal epoxide method: U.S. Patent 7,847,074 discloses a method that utilizes an organometallic (derived from the requisite aglycone moiety) addition to an electrophilic epoxide located at C1-C2 of a hydroxy-protected glucose ring to furnish intermediates useful for SGLT2 inhibitor synthesis. The epoxide intermediate is prepared by the oxidation of a hydroxy- protected glucal and is not particularly stable. In Tetrahedron 2002, 58, 1997-2009 it was taught that organometallic additions to a tri-6>-benzyl protected glucal-derived epoxide can provide either the a-C-arylglucoside, mixtures of the a- and β-C-arylglucoside or the β-C-arylglucoside by selection of the appropriate counterion of the carbanionic aryl nucleophile (i.e., the

organometallic reagent). For example, carbanionic aryl groups countered with copper (i.e., cuprate reagents) or zinc (i.e., organozinc reagents) ions provide the β-C-arylglucoside, magnesium ions provide the a- and β-C-arylglucosides, and aluminum (i.e., organoaluminum reagents) ions provide the a-C-arylglucoside.

 

or Zn[0012] The glycosyl leaving group substitution method: U.S. Patent 7,847,074, also disclosed a method comprising the substitution of a leaving group located at CI of a hydroxy-protected glucosyl species, such as a glycosyl halide, with a metalated aryl compound to prepare SGLT2 inhibitors. U.S. Pat. Appl. 2011/0087017 disclosed a similar method to prepare the SGLT2 inhibitor canagliflozin and preferably diarylzinc complexes are used as nucleophiles along with tetra- >-pivaloyl protected glucosylbromide.

Glucose Glucosyl bromide β-anomer

[0013] Methodology for alkynylation of 1,6-anhydroglycosides reported in Helv. Chim. Acta. 1995, 78, 242-264 describes the preparation of l,4-dideoxy-l,4-diethynyl^-D-glucopyranoses (a. La., glucopyranosyl acetylenes), that are useful for preparing but-l,3-diyne-l,4-diyl linked polysaccharides, by the ethynylating opening (alkynylation) of partially protected 4-deoxy-4-C- ethynyl-l,6-anhydroglucopyranoses. The synthesis of β-C-arylglucosides, such as could be useful as precursors for SLGT2 inhibitors, was not disclosed. The ethynylation reaction was reported to proceed with retention of configuration at the anomeric center and was rationalized (see Helv. Chim. Acta 2002, 85, 2235-2257) by the C3-hydroxyl of the 1,6- anhydroglucopyranose being deprotonated to form a C3-0-aluminium species, that coordinated with the C6-oxygen allowing delivery of the ethyne group to the β-face of the an oxycarbenium cation derivative of the glucopyranose. Three molar equivalents of the ethynylaluminium reagent was used per 1 molar equivalent of the 1,6-anhydroglucopyranose. The

ethynylaluminium reagent was prepared by the reaction of equimolar (i.e., 1:1) amounts of aluminum chloride and an ethynyllithium reagent that itself was formed by the reaction of an acetylene compound with butyllithium. This retentive ethynylating opening method was also applied (see Helv. Chim. Acta. 1998, 81, 2157-2189) to 2,4-di-<9-triethylsilyl- 1,6- anhydroglucopyranose to provide l-deoxy-l-C-ethynyl- -D-glucopyranose. In this example, 4 molar equivalents of the ethynylaluminium reagent was used per 1 molar equivalent of the 1,6- anhydroglucopyranose. The ethynylaluminium regent was prepared by the reaction of equimolar (i.e., 1: 1) amounts of aluminum chloride and an ethynyl lithium reagent that itself was formed by reaction of an acetylene compound with butyllithium.

[0014] It can be seen from the peer-reviewed and patent literature that the conventional methods that can be used to provide C-arylglucosides possess several disadvantages. These include (1) a lack of stereoselectivity during formation of the desired anomer of the C- arylglucoside, (2) poor redox economy due to oxidation and reduction reaction steps being required to change the oxidation state of CI or of CI and C2 of the carbohydrate moiety, (3) some relatively long synthetic routes, (4) the use of toxic metals such as palladium, and/or (5) atom uneconomic protection of four free hydroxyl groups. With regard to the issue of redox economy, superfluous oxidation and reduction reactions that are inherently required to allow introduction of the aryl group into the carbohydrate moiety of the previously mention synthetic methods and the subsequent synthetic steps to establish the required oxidation state, besides adding synthetic steps to the process, are particular undesirable for manufacturing processes because reductants can be difficult and dangerous to operate on large scales due to their flammability or ability to produce flammable hydrogen gas during the reaction or during workup, and because oxidants are often corrosive and require specialized handling operations (see Anderson, N. G. Practical Process Research & Development, 1st Ed.; Academic Press, 2000 (ISBN-10: 0120594757); pg 38 for discussions on this issue).

[0015] In view of the above, there remains a need for a shorter, more efficient and

stereoselective, redox economic process for the preparation of β-C-arylglucosides. A new process should be applicable to the industrial manufacture of SGLT2 inhibitors and their prodrugs,

[0227] 2-(5-Bromo-2-methylbenzyl)-5-(4-fluorophenyl)thiophene (1.5 g, 4.15 mmol) and magnesium powder (0.33 g, 13.7 mmol) were placed in a suitable reactor, followed by THF (9 mL) and 1,2-dibromoethane (95 μί). The mixture was heated to reflux. After the reaction was initiated, a solution of 2-(5-bromo-2-methylbenzyl)-5-(4-fluorophenyl)thiophene (2.5 g, 6.92 mmol) in THF (15mL) was added dropwise. The mixture was stirred for another 2 hours under reflux, and was then cooled to ambient temperature and titrated to determine the concentration. The thus prepared 3-[[5-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-thienyl]methyl]-4-methylphenyl magnesium bromide (0.29 M in THF, 17 mL, 5.0 mmol) and A1C13 (0.5 M in THF, 4.0 mL, 2.0 mmol) were mixed at ambient temperature to give a black solution, which was stirred at ambient temperature for 1 hour. To a solution of l ,6-anhydro-2,4-di-6>-ieri-butyldiphenylsilyl- -D-glucopyranose (0.64 g, 1.0 mmol) in PhOMe (3.0 mL) at ambient temperature was added rc-BuLi (0.4 mL, 1.0 mmol, 2.5 M solution in Bu20). After stirring for about 5 min the solution was then added into the above prepared aluminum mixture via syringe, followed by additional PhOMe (1.0 mL) to rinse the flask. The mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure (50 torr) at 60 °C (external bath temperature) to remove low-boiling point ethereal solvents, and PhOMe (6 mL) was then added. The remaining mixture was heated at 150 °C (external bath temperature) for 5 hours at which time HPLC assay analysis indicated a 68% yield of 2,4-di-6>-ieri-butyldiphenylsilyl-l-C-(3-((5- (4-fluorophenyl)thiophen-2-yl)methyl)-4-methylphenyl)- -D-glucopyranoside. After cooling to ambient temperature, the reaction was treated with 10% aqueous NaOH (1 mL), THF (10 mL) and diatomaceous earth at ambient temperature, then the mixture was filtered and the filter cake was washed with THF. The combined filtrates were concentrated and the crude product was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluting with 1 :20 MTBE/rc-heptane) to give the product 2,4-di-6>-ieri-butyldiphenylsilyl-l-C-(3-((5-(4-fluorophenyl)thiophen-2-yl)methyl)-4- methylphenyl)- -D-glucopyranoside (0.51 g, 56%) as a white powder.

GMP……API PILOT PLANT

PRESENTATION

 

Pilot plant and scale-up techniques are both integral and critical to drug discovery and development process for new medicinal products. A major decision focuses on that point where the idea or process is advanced from a research oriented program targeted towards commercialization.

The speed of drug discovery has been accelerating at an exponential rate. The past two decades particular have witnessed amazing inventions and innovations in pharmaceutical research, resulting in the ability to produce new drugs faster than even before.

The new drug applications (NDAs) and abbreviated new drug applications (ANDA) are all-time high. The preparation of several clinical batches in the pilot plant provides its personnel with the opportunity to perfect and validate the process. Also different types of laboratories have been motivated to adopt new processes and technologies in an effort to stay at the forefront scientific innovation.

 MY PRESENTATION

 

 

Pharmaceutical pilot plants that can quickly numerous short-run production lines of multiple batches are essential for ensuring success in the clinical testing and bougainvilleas study phases. Drug formulation research time targets are met by having a well-designed facility with the appropriate equipment mix, to quickly move from the laboratory to the pilot plant scale 1. In pilot plant, a formula is transformed into a viable, robust product by the development of a reliable and practical method of manufacture that effects the orderly transition from laboratory to routine processing in a full scale production facility where as the scale up involves the designing of prototype using the data obtained from the pilot plant model.

Pilot plant studies must includes a close examination of formula to determine its ability to withstand batch-scale and process modifications; it must includes a review of range of relevant processing equipment also availability of raw materials meeting the specification of product and during the scale up efforts in the pilot plant production and process control are evaluated, validated and finalized.

In addition, appropriate records and reports issued to support Good Manufacturing Practices and to provide historical development of the production formulation, process, equipment train, and specifications

A manufacturer’s decision to scale up / scale down a process is ultimately rooted in the economics of the production process, i.e., in the cost of material, personnel, and equipment associated with the process and its control.

 When developing technologies, there are a number of steps required between the initial concept and completion of the final production plant. These steps include the development of the commercial process, optimization of the process, scale-up from the bench to a pilot plant, and from the pilot plant to the full scale process. While the ultimate goal is to go directly from process optimization to full scale plant, the pilot plant is generally a necessary step.

Reasons for this critical step include: understanding the potential waste streams, examination of macro-processes, process interactions, process variations, process controls, development of standard operating procedures, etc. The information developed at the pilot plant scale allows for a better understanding of the overall process including side processes. Therefore, this step helps to build the information base so that the technology can be permitted and safely implemented.

Should be versatile pilot plant that is entirely GMP and facilitates the development of API’s in scalable, safe and environmentally friendly ways.

Product quality: Operations that depend on people for executing manual recipes are subject to human variability. How precisely are the operators following the recipe? Processes that are sensitive to variations in processing will result in quality variation. Full recipe automation that controls most of the critical processing operations provides very accurate, repeatable material processing. This leads to very highly consistent product quality.

pilot pic 11

 Improved production: Many biotech processes have extremely long cycle times (some up to 6 months), and are very sensitive to processing conditions. It is not uncommon for batches to be lost for unexplained reasons after completing a large portion of the batch cycle time. The longer the batch cycle time and the more sensitive production is to processing conditions, the more batch automation is justified. Imagine losing a batch of very valuable product because the recipe was not precisely followed!

 Process optimization: Increasing the product yield can be done by making small changes in processing conditions to improve the chemical conversions or biological growth conditions. Manual control offers a limited ability to finely implement small changes to processing conditions due to the inherent lack of precision in human control. Conversely, computers are very good at controlling conditions precisely. In addition, advanced control capabilities such as model predictive control can greatly improve process optimization. This results in higher product yield and lower production cost. This consideration is highly relevant to pilot plant facilities where part of the goal is to learn how to make the product.

 Recordkeeping: A multi-unit recipe control system is capable of collecting detailed records as to how a batch was made and relates all data to a single batch ID. Data of this nature can be very valuable for QA reporting, QA deviation investigations, and process analysis.

 Safety: Operators spend less time exposed to chemicals when the process is fully automated as compared to manual control. Less exposure to the process generally results in a safer process.

A good batch historian should be able to collect records for a production run to include the following information:  Product and recipe identification

 User defined report parameters

 Formulation data and relevant changes

 Procedural element state changes (Operations, unit procedures, procedures)

 Phase state changes

 Operator changes

 Operator prompts and responses

 Operator comments

 Equipment acquisitions and releases

 Equipment relationships

 Campaign creation data (recipe, formula values, equipment, etc.)

 Campaign modifications

 Campaign execution activity

 Controller I/O subsystem events from the Continuous Historian

 Process alarms

 Process events

 Device state changes.

 

Raw materials

Buildings and facilities. GMPs under the 21 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 211.42 state that buildings or areas used in the receiving, storage, and handling of raw materials should be of suitable size, construction and location to allow for the proper cleaning, maintenance, and operation (7). The common theme for this section of CFR Parts 210 and 211 is the prevention of errors and contamination. In principle, the requirements for buildings and facilities used in early phase manufacturing are not significantly different than those for later phases or even commercial production. However, there are some areas that are unique to early clinical trial manufacturing.

Control of materials. The CFR regulations under Part 211.80 provide good direction with respect to lot identification, inventory, receipt, storage, and destruction of materials (7). The clear intent is to ensure patient safety by establishing controls that prevent errors or cross-contamination and ensure traceability of components from receipt through clinical use. In general, the requirements for the control of materials are identical across all phases of development, so it is important to consider these requirements when designing a GMP facility within a laboratory setting.

Combination Glass/Glass-lined reactors

For example, all materials must be assigned a unique lot number and have proper labeling. An inventory system must provide for tracking each lot of each component with a record for each use. Upon receipt, each lot should be visually examined for appropriate labeling and for evidence of tampering or contamination. Materials should be placed into quarantine or in the approved area or reject area with proper labeling to identify the material and prevent mix-ups with other materials in the storage area. Provision should be made for materials with special storage requirements (e.g., refrigeration, high security). The storage labeling should match the actual conditions that the material is being stored and should include expiry/retest dates for approved materials. Although such labeling is inconvenient for new materials where the expiration or retest date may change as more information is known, this enables personnel to be able to determine quickly whether a particular lot of a material is nearing or exceeding the expiration or retest date. General expiry/retest dates for common materials should be based on manufacturer’s recommendation or the literature.

Finally, there are clear regulatory and environmental requirements for the destruction of expired or rejected materials. It is important to observe regional and international requirements regarding the use of animal sourced materials (12). It is recommended to use materials that are not animal sourced and that there be available certification by the raw material manufacturers that they contain no animal sourced materials. If animal sourced raw materials must be used, then certifications by the raw material manufacturers that they either originate from certified and approved (by regulatory bodies) sources for use in human pharmaceuticals, or that the material has been tested to the level required for acceptance by regulatory agencies (following US, EU, or Japanese guidelines, as applicable) is required.

Direct advantages for customers 

  • Shorter implementation time for product by determination of the product suitability as well as the necessary process cycle
  • Optimized adjustment of the processing times in the production lines (trains) by relatively precise estimation of the drying times
  • Definition of effective cleaning processes (CIP/WIP and SIP)
  • Definition of the selection criteria based on the weighting of the customer, e.g.: drying time, quality (form of crystal, activity, etc.), cleanout, ability of CIP, price

 

An overview of further trials and test functions, that can be realized in the new pilot plant facility:

  • Product tests for determination of suitability
  • Scale-up tests as basis for the extrapolation on production batches regarding drying time, filling degree, crystalline transformation and grain spectrum
  • Optimization of the process cycle
  • Optimization of the machine
  • Data acquisition and analysis

Good Manufacturing Practices in Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients Development

 http://apic.cefic.org/pub/5gmpdev9911.pdf

Example below

3. Introduction Principles basic to the formulation of this guideline are: ·

Development should ensure that all products meet the requirements for quality and purity which they purport or are represented to possess and that the safety of any subject in clinical trials will be guaranteed. ·

During Development all information directly leading to statements on quality of critical intermediates and APIs must be retrievable and/or reconstructable. ·

The system for managing quality should encompass the organisational structure, procedures, processes and resources, as well as activities necessary to ensure confidence that the API will meet its intended specifications for quality and purity. All quality related activities should be defined and documented. Any GMP decision during Development must be based on the principles above.

During the development of an API the required level of GMP control increases. Using these guidelines, the appropriate standard may be implemented according to the intended use of the API. Firms should apply proper judgement, to discern which aspects need to be addressed during different development stages (non-clinical, clinical, scale-up from laboratory to pilot plant to manufacturing site).

Suppliers of APIs and/or critical intermediates to pharmaceutical firms should be notified on the intended use of the materials, in order to apply appropriate GMPs. The matrix (section 8) should be used in conjunction with text in section 7, as is only intended as an initial guide.  READ MORE AT….  http://apic.cefic.org/pub/5gmpdev9911.pdf

Multi-kilo scale-up under GMP conditions

Examples of flow processes being used to produce exceptionally large amounts of material are becoming increasingly common as industrial researchers become more knowledgeable about the benefits of continuous reactions. The above examples from academic groups serve to illustrate that reactions optimized in small reactors processing tens to hundreds of mg hour−1 of material can be scaled up to several grams per hour. Projects in process chemistry are often time-sensitive, however, and production of multiple kg of material may be needed in a short amount of time. An example of how the efficient scaling of a flow reaction can save time and reduce waste is provided by a group of researchers at Eli Lilly in their kg synthesis of a key drug intermediate under GMP conditions . In batch, ketoamide 13 was condensed with NH4OAc and cyclized to form imidazole 14 at 100 °C in butanol on a 1 gram scale. However, side product formation became a significant problem on multiple runs at a 250 g scale. It was proposed that this was due to slow heat up times of the reactor with increasing scale, as lower temperatures seemed to favour increased degradation over productivecyclization. Upon switching to a 4.51 mL flow reactor, another optimization was carried out which identified methanol as a superior solvent that had been neglected in batch screening due to its low boiling point at atmospheric pressure. Scale-up to a 7.14 L reactor proceeded smoothly without the need for reoptimization, and running on this scale with a residence time of 90 minutes for a six-day continuous run provided 29.2 kg of product after recrystallization (approximately 207 g hour−1). The adoption of a flow protocol by a group of industrial researchers in a scale-up with time constraints demonstrates both the effectiveness and maturity of flow chemistry. While the given reaction was used to produce kilograms of material for a deadline, continuous operation without further optimization could produce over 1 metric tonne of product per year in a reactor that fits into a GC oven.

Definitions

Plant:  A plant is a place where an industrial or manufacturing process takes place. It may also be expressed as a place where the 5 M’s that are; man, materials, money, method and materials are brought together for the manufacture of products.

Pilot Plant: A part of a manufacturing industry where a laboratory scale formula is transformed into a viable product by development of reliable practical procedures of manufacturing.

Scale-Up: This is the art of designing a prototype based on the information or data obtained from a pilot plant model.

cGMP: current Good Manufacturing Processes refer to an established system of ensuring that products are consistently produced and controlled according to quality standards. It is designed to minimize risk involved in any industrial design. GMP covers all aspects of production from the starting materials, premises and equipment to the training and personal hygiene of staff within industries. Detailed, written procedures are essential for each process that could affect the quality of the finished product. There must be a system to provide documented proof that correct procedures are consistently followed at each step in the manufacturing process every time a product is made.

SCALING UP FROM PILOT PLANTS

When scaling up, it is of utmost importance to consider all aspects of risk and futuristic expansion. The pilot plant is usually a costly apparatus and therefore the decision of building it is always a hard one. The function of a pilot plant is not just to prove that the laboratory experiments work, but;

  1. To test technologies that are about to be implemented on industrial plants before establishment
  2. To evaluate performance specifications before the actual installation of industrial plant.
  3. Evaluation of reliability of mathematical models within real environment.
  4. Economic considerations for production involving process optimization and automated control systems.

GMP GENERAL PRACTISES

Facilities and Equipment Systems

  • Ø Cleaning and maintenance
  • Ø Facility layout and air handling systems for prevention of cross-contamination (e.g. Penicillin, beta-lactams, steroids, hormones, cytotoxic, etc.)
  • Ø Specifically designed areas for the manufacturing operations performed by the firm to prevent contamination or mix-ups.

Facilities

  • Ø General air handling systems
  • Ø Control system for implementing changes in the building
  • Ø Lighting, potable water, washing and toilet facilities, sewage and refuse disposal
  • Ø Sanitation of the building, use of rodenticides, fungicides, insecticides, cleaning and sanitizing agents. 

GMP FOR PLANT DESIGN

The application of GMP to plant design is primary to the establishment of such plants. Regulatory boards have precedence over these operations helping to establish a proper and functional system in plant design.

Design Review

l  Conceptual drawings;

From plant design drawings which are inspected and approved by cGMP regulatory bodies (such as Department of Petroleum Resources in Nigeria), approvals are issued depending on adherence to specifications such as muster points, proper spacing of fuel sources from combustion units and other more elaborate considerations.

l  Proposed plant layouts;

A choice of location for plant and layout play an important role on environmental impact. Hence, environmental impact assessment is a major part of GMP. Industries must be located at least 100M from closest residential quarter (depending of materials processed in plant).

l  Flow diagrams for facility

For optimization and efficiency purposes, flow diagrams for complete refinery process are important for review with intent to ensure they conform to GMP

l  Critical systems and areas

Some areas in a plant may require extra safety precautions in operations. The cGMP makes provision for such special considerations with the creation of customized set of operational guidelines that ensure safety and wellness of staff and environment alike.

cGMP EXAMPLE:  FOOD PROCESSING PLANT

Outlined below are the cGMP considerations in the establishment and handling of a food processing plant.

Safety of Water

1. Process water is safe, if private supply should be tested at least annually.

2. Backflow prevention by an air gap or back flow prevention device. Sinks that are used to prepare food must have an air-gap. 

Food Contact Surface

1. Food handlers use good hygienic practices; hands shall be washed before starting work, after absence from work station, or when they become contamination (such as with eating or smoking).

2. Signs shall be posted in processing rooms and other appropriate areas directing employees that handle unprotected food, food-contact surfaces, food packaging materials to wash their hands prior to starting to work, after each absence from the work station, and whenever hands may become contaminated.

3. Plant design so that the potential for contamination of food, food-contact surfaces, or packaging materials is reduced to the extent possible.

4. Physical separation of raw and finished products. 

Hand Washing Sinks and Toilet Facilities

1. Hand washing sinks, properly equipped, shall be conveniently located to exposed food processing areas. Ware washing sinks shall not be used for this purpose.

2. Adequate supply of hot and cold water under pressure.

3. Toilet facilities; adequate and accessible, self-closing doors.

4. Sewage disposal system shall be installed and maintained according to State law.

Protection from Adulteration (Food, Food Contact Surfaces, and Packaging Materials)

1. Food processing equipment designed to preclude contamination with lubricants, fuel, metal fragments, contaminated water, or other sources of contamination.

2. Food processed so that production methods to not contaminate the product.

3. Raw materials, works-in-process, filling, assembly, packaging, and storage and transportation conducted so that food is not contaminated.

4. Protection from drip and condensate overhead.

5. Ventilation adequate and air not blown on food or food-contact surfaces.

6. Lights adequately shielded.

7. Compressed air or gas mechanically introduced adequately filtered. 

Scope of services

  • Engineering support
  • Representation of the construction owner (equipment, construction: supervision of general contractors, GMP concept draft)
  • Basic and detailed design
  • Support during the implementation phase
  • Clean room planning (incl. lab areas)
  • Construction management
  • Qualification
  • Validation support

Toxic Items: Labelling, Use, and Storage

1. Products used approved and used according to product’s label.

2. Sanitizer used on food-contact surfaces must be approved for that use.

3. Shall be securely stored, so unauthorized use is prevented.

Personnel Disease Control

1. Food handler, who has illness or open lesion, or other source of microbiological contamination that presents a reasonable possibility of contamination of food, food-contact surfaces, or packaging materials shall be excluded from such operations.

2. Adequate training in food protection, dangers of poor personal hygiene, and unsanitary practices shall be provided.

3. Management shall provide adequate supervision and competent training to ensure compliance with these provisions.

Pest Control

1. Management shall provide an adequate pest control program so that pests are excluded from the plant.

2. Program shall ensure that only approved pesticides are used and applied per the product’s label. 

Plant Construction and Design

1. Walls, floors, and ceilings constructed so that they can be adequately cleaned and kept in good repair.

2. Adequate lighting provided.

3. Adequate ventilation or controls to minimize odours and vapours.

4. Adequate screening or protection of outer openings.

5. Grounds maintained free of litre, weeds, and pooling water.

6. Roads, yards, and parking lots maintained so that food is not contaminated.

Equipment

1. Equipment, utensils, and seams on equipment – adequately cleanable, properly maintained, designed, and made of safe materials.

2. Refrigerators and freezers equipped with adequate thermometer.

3. Instruments and control devices – accurate and maintained.

4. Compressed air or gas designed/treated so that food is not contaminated.

Equipment. Most equipment used to manufacture early GMP drug product is be managed under a qualification, preventive maintenance, and calibration program for the GMP facility. However, in early development, there may occasionally be a need to use equipment that is not part of such a program. Rather than performing a comprehensive qualification for a piece of equipment not expected to be frequently used, an organization may choose to qualify it for a single step or campaign. Documentation from an installation qualification/operational qualification (IQ/OQ) and or performance verification at the proposed operating condition is sufficient. For example, if solution preparation needs a mixer with a rotation speed of 75 rpm, then documentation in the batch record using a calibrated tachometer to verify that the mixer was operating at 75 rpm will suffice.

The use of dedicated or disposable equipment or product contact parts may be preferable to following standard cleaning procedures to ensure equipment is clean and acceptable for use. However, not all equipment or equipment parts are disposable or may have a substantial cost that makes disposal prohibitive. In that case, the product contact parts could be dedicated to a specific drug substance for use in drug product manufacture. Dedicating product contact parts to a compound may be costly and may be avoided in some cases by carefully considering product changeover and effective cleaning methods when purchasing equipment.

Another item to consider with respect to equipment, is that the more complicated the equipment is to run or maintain, the less desirable it might be for early GMP batches. In most cases, simple equipment is adequate and will uses less material and consume less total time for preparation, operation, and cleaning activities.

Weights and Measures

1. Scales used to measure net weight of contents shall be designed so they can be calibrated.

2. Products in interstate commerce – net weights/measurements also in metric.

 

CONCLUSION

Plant establishment is an activity that has kept rising from the inception of the industrial revolution until date. Giving rise to increase in raw material demand, increased pollution levels, higher energy demand, and overall greater economic output. As history and record keeping has served for an even longer period, it becomes necessary for adaptation to be made to avoid incidents and accidents that have occurred previously and also those that can be anticipated without actual devastating effect.

The development of the GMP is as a result of observed challenges in industry and environment over years of industrialization. It becomes necessary to upset these poor trends that have developed as a result of industrialization by so doing increasing the pros and reducing the cons.

GMP protects consumer, produce, equipment, and conserves the processes as a whole, leading to a more efficient sustainable process defining a new standard for yields and profit and eliminating the tendency of compromise made by industrialists to increase overall profits at the risk of staff and environment.

Batch documentation and execution

Batch record documentation preparation. Manufacturing documentation is a basic requirement for all phases of clinical development. 21 CFR Parts 211.186 and 211.188 describe master production and batch production records, respectively (7). The stated purpose of the master production record is to “assure uniformity from batch to batch.” Although the record assurance is important for a commercial validated manufacturing process, it does not necessarily apply to clinical-development batches. Material properties, manufacturing scale, and quality target product profile frequently change from batch to batch. Therefore, batch production records are the appropriate documentation for clinical trial supplies. Batch production records for Phase 1 materials should minimally include:

  • Name, strength, and description of the dosage form
  • A complete list of active and inactive ingredients, including weight or measure per dosage unit and total weight or measure per unit
  • Theoretical batch size (number of units)
  • Manufacturing and control instructions.

These minimum requirements are consistent with the FDA Guidance for Industry: cGMP for Early Phase Investigational Drugs, which requires a record of manufacturing that details the materials, equipment, procedures used and any problems encountered during manufacturing (2). The records should allow for the replication of the process. On this basis, there is flexibility in the manner for which documentation of batch activities can occur, provided that the documentation allows for the post execution review by the quality unit and for the retention of these records.

 

Batch documentation approvals. Review and approval of executed batch records by the Quality unit is required per 21 CFR Part 211.192 (7). This review and approval is required for all stages of clinical manufacturing. Pre-approvals of batch records should be governed by internal procedures as there is no requirement in CFR 21 that the Quality unit pre-approves the batch record (though this is highly recommended in order to minimize the chance of errors). Indeed, Table I shows that pre-approval of batch records by the Quality Unit is practiced by all 10 companies that participated in the IQ Consortium’s drug-product manufacturing survey related to early development. Batch records must be retained for at least 1 year after the expiration of the batch according to CFR Part 211.180, but many companies keep their GMP records archived for longer terms.

Room clearance. 21 CFR Part 211.130 requires inspection of packaging and labeling facilities immediately before use to ensure that all drug products from previous operations have been removed. This inspection should be documented and can be performed by any qualified individual.

Although line clearance for bulk manufacture is not specifically mentioned in the CFR, it is expected that a room clearance be performed. At a minimum, this clearance should be performed prior to the initiation of a new batch (i.e., prior to batch materials entering a processing room).

Hold time. During the early stages of development, final dosage form release testing confirms product quality and support establishment of hold times later in the clinical development. There is no requirement to establish hold times for work in process in early development. Specific formulation and stability experience, which is usually limited at this stage of development, should be leveraged to assess any substantial variations from expected batch processing times. The data gathered from these batches and subsequent development can be used to help establish hold times for future batches. (Exceptions to this approach may include solution or suspension preparations used in solid dosage form manufacturing, where procedures typically govern allowable hold times to ensure the absence of microbial contamination in the final product.)

Change control. Changes to raw materials, processes, and products during early development are inevitable. It is not required that these changes be controlled by a central system but rather may be appropriately documented in technical reports and manufacturing batch records. Any changes in manufacturing process from a previous batch should be captured as part of the batch record documentation and communicated to affected areas. The rationale for these changes should also be documented as this serves as a source for development history reports and for updating regulatory filings. The authors recommend that those changes that could affect a regulatory filing be captured in a formal system.

Process changes. Process parameters should be recorded but do not need to be predetermined because processes may not be fixed or established in early development. Given the limited API availability in early development, a clinical batch is often the first time a product is manufactured at a particular scale or using a particular process train. Therefore, process changes should be expected. Process trains and operating parameters must be documented in the batch record but changes should not trigger an exception report or CAPA. Changes should be documented as an operational note or modification to the batch record in real time. Such changes driven by technical observations should not require prior approval by the Quality unit, but should have the appropriate scientific justification (via formulator/scientist) or the appropriate flexibility built into the batch record to allow for the changes. This documentation should be available for Quality review prior to product disposition.

Calculation of yield. Actual yields should be calculated for major processing steps to further process understanding and enable optimization of processes. Expected yield tolerances are not always applicable to early development manufacture. At this stage of early development, when formulation and process knowledge is extremely limited, there may be no technical basis for setting yield tolerances and, therefore, this yield may not be an indicator of the quality of the final product.

In-process controls and R&D sampling. In-process tests and controls should follow basic requirements of GMPS to document consistency of the batch. For capsule products, these requirements may include capsule weights and physical inspection. For tablet products, compression force or tablet hardness and weights should be monitored together with appearance. R&D sampling, defined as samples taken for purposes of furthering process understanding but not utilized for batch disposition decisions, is a normal part of all phases of clinical manufacturing. In early development manufacturing, a sampling plan is required for in-process control tests, but not for R&D samples. However, for the purpose of material accountability, R&D sampling should be documented as part of batch execution. For these samples, testing results may be managed separately, and are not required to be included in regulatory documentation.

Facilities and equipment

Regardless of the scale of manufacturing, the facility used for manufacturing clinical trial supplies must meet the basic GMP requirements as described in the regulations and guidance documents. Below are three scenarios for early development and the advantages of each as pertaining to early development. The first involves a pilot plant facility designed and equipped for routine GMP operations. The second scenario aims to establish a GMP area within a laboratory environment. The third example focuses on conducting GMP manufacturing or leveraging the practice of pharmacy in close proximity to the clinical site.

GMP facility for drug-product manufacture. The traditional approach in GMP drug-product manufacture is to use a dedicated facility (often called a pilot plant) for early phase clinical trials. Advantages of this approach include that the quality systems for the facility (i.e., maintenance, calibration, cleaning, change management, CAPA, and documentation) are well defined, and that training and other activities required for maintaining GMP compliance are centralized. Other drivers to use a pilot plant in early development may be the need for specialized equipment, or larger batch sizes in special situations.

GMP area within a laboratory setting. In some cases, it may be advantageous to establish a GMP area within a “laboratory setting” (i.e., a drug-development facility not dedicated to the production of clinical supplies) for the manufacture of drug product in early development. The rationale for this approach might be to avoid the significant investment in setting up a dedicated facility and to create simpler, more flexible systems that meet GMP requirements but are tailored for the specific activity envisioned. Examples where this approach might be considered include the need for special containment not available in the pilot-plant; the need to work with radioactive or hazardous materials, use of controlled substances and the production of “one-off manufactured” product used for proof of concept. The business rationale should be documented and approved by the manufacturing and Quality groups. As long as the appropriate GMP controls are maintained, especially as related to operator safety, cleaning, and prevention of cross-contamination, there is no compliance barrier to using “lab-type” facilities for the manufacturing of early phase clinical batches. Before GMP manufacturing is initiated, however, a risk assessment should be conducted and documented. Inclusion of representatives from Quality, analytical, clinical manufacturing, product development, and environmental health and safety would be prudent. When selecting/designing an early development clinical manufacturing facility, consideration should be made for the receipt, storage, dispensing, and movement of materials. The manufacturing processes in the nondedicated area must protect the product, patient, and the manufacturing operators.

Additionally, companies should consider what items are appropriate for the manufacture. For example, the use of a certified laminar flow hood may be a better choice for manufacturing than a fume hood, because the former is designed to prevent contamination of the product, protect the operator, and the laboratory environment. In addition, with the appropriate cleaning, a laminar flow hood can more easily be used for multiple products. Small scale/manual equipment or procedures may be the best approach because the space is likely to be limited. With a small batch size, the use of small scale or manual equipment/procedures will minimize yield loss. Additional measures to be assessed include appropriate gowning and operator personal protection devices, area and operator monitoring for potent or radiolabeled drug exposure, and so forth.

Documentation of the facility preparation, product manufacture, and the return of the facility to the previous state, if needed, is recommended. This documentation should describe the rationale for the manufacture in the nondedicated area, risk assessment, preparation of the area, cleaning procedures, and list of responsible persons. This documentation can reference existing procedures or standard operating procedures (SOPs) along with documents associated with the meetings and preparation for the manufacture of the batch. Batch records and cleaning records should be part of the documentation and should follow the company’s data-retention policy.

Receipt and approval

Specifications. It is a GMP requirement that all raw materials for the manufacture of drug product have appropriate specifications to ensure quality. The compendial requirements should be used for setting specifications provided the material is listed in at least one pharmaceutical compendium (e.g., US, European, and Japanese Pharmacopeias). It is important that the use of materials meeting the requirements of a single compendium is acceptable for use in early phase clinical studies conducted in the US, Europe, and Japan. For example, a material that meets USP criteria and is used in the manufacture of a drug product should be acceptable for use in early clinical studies in the European Union. In the absence of a pharmaceutical compendium monograph, the vendor specification and/or alternative compendial specifications such as USP’s Food Chemical Codex should guide specification setting. In any case, the sponsor is responsible for the establishment of appropriate specifications. Therefore, it is the authors’ position that good practice is to have at least a basic understanding of the manufacture, chemistry, and toxicology of the materials to guide appropriate specification setting.

Material testing and evaluation. The minimum testing required for incoming materials is visual inspection and identification. However, as mentioned above, the appropriate tests should be determined for the material based on the knowledge of the manufacture, chemistry, and toxicology. If the vendor is qualified, then the certificate of analysis may be acceptable in conjunction with the visual inspection and identification testing (see “Vendor Qualification” section below).

Approval for use. Ideally, manufacture of a bulk drug product should begin with approved material specifications and with materials that are fully tested and released. However, there are circumstances where it may not be feasible to start manufacture with approved specifications and fully tested and released materials, including API. Manufacturing prior to final release (sometimes called manufacturing “at risk”) may be acceptable, however, because the quality system ensures that all specifications are approved, test results are within specifications, and all relevant documents are in place before the product is released for administration to humans. The “risk” must lie fully with the manufacturer and not with the patient.

Vendor qualification. Vendors supplying excipients, raw materials, or API must be qualified by the sponsor. Appropriate qualification should depend on the stage of development and an internal risk assessment. For, example if a vendor has a history of supplying the pharmaceutical industry and the material is to be used in early development, a paper assessment (e.g., a questionnaire) should be sufficient. If a supplier does not have a history of supplying the pharmaceutical industry, a risk assessment should be performed and depending on the outcome a site audit may be required prior to accepting material for use.

Ideally, vendors should be qualified prior to using raw materials for manufacture. However, it is acceptable for qualification to proceed in parallel as long as documentation/risk assessments are available prior to product release and as in the previous section all risk lies with the manufacturer and not the patient.

 

A production mixing unit is usually not geometrically similar to the mixer used for process development. Such differences can make scale-up from the laboratory or pilot plant challenging. A solution to these problems is to systematically calculate and evaluate mixing characteristics for each geometry change.

Geometric similarity is often used in mixing scale-up because it greatly simplifies design calculations. Geometric similarity means that a single ratio between small scale and large scale applies to every length dimension (see figure). With geometric similarity, all of the length dimensions in the large-scale equipment are set by the corresponding dimensions in the small-scale equipment. The only remaining variable for scale-up to large-scale mixing is the rotational speed — one or more mixing characteristics, such as tip speed, can be duplicated by the appropriate selection of a large-scale mixer speed.

Mixing Figure 1
The two most popular and effective geometric scale-up methods are equal tip speed and equal power per volume. Equal tip speed results when the small-scale mixer speed is multiplied by the inverse geometric ratio of the impeller diameters to get the large-scale mixer speed:

N2 = N1(D1/D2)

Equal power per volume involves a similar calculation, except the geometry ratio is raised to the two-thirds power:

N2 = N1(D1/D2)(2/3)

This expression for power per volume only applies strictly for turbulent conditions, where the power number is constant, but is approximately correct for transition-flow mixing.

Avoid mix-ups
As we have seen, taking successive steps allows the development of alternative solutions to scale-up. Similar methods can be used to scale-down process problems for investigation in a pilot-plant or laboratory simulation. Here, too, non-geometric similarity often is a problem. Such scale-down calculations should help pinpoint appropriate operating speeds to test in the small-scale mixer.
In any scale-up or scale-down evaluation, some variables can be held constant while others must change. For example, even with geometric similarity, scale-up will result in less surface per volume because surface area increases as the length squared and volume increases as length cubed. Similarly, keeping blend time constant rarely is practical with any significant scale change. Larger tanks take longer to blend than smaller ones. Also, Reynolds number is expected to increase as size increases. In addition, standard operating speeds or available impeller sizes may necessitate a final adjustment to the scale-up calculations.

Rules for scale-up always have exceptions but understanding the effects of scale-up, especially non-geometric scale-up, can provide valuable guidance. Indeed, appreciation of the tradeoffs involved in non-geometric scale-up may be crucial for success with large-scale mixing processes.

Axitinib (AG013736; trade name Inlyta) is a small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor developed by Pfizer. It has been shown to significantly inhibit growth of breast cancer in animal (xenograft) models[2] and has shown partial responses in clinical trials with renal cell carcinoma (RCC)[3] and several other tumour types.[4] It was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration after showing a modest increase in progression-free survival,[5] though there have been reports of fatal adverse effects.[6]

Axitinib, a small-molecule indazole derivative chemically known as (E)-N-methyl-2-(3-(2-(pyridin-2-yl)-vinyl)-1H-indazol-6-ylthio)benzamide developed by Pfizer, was approved in January 2012 by the U.S. FDA with the trade name Inlyta. It selectively inhibits vascular endothelial growth factor receptors for the treatment of renal cell carcinoma

On January 27, 2012, axitinib was approved with the trade name INLYTA for treatment of patients in the United States with advanced renal cell carcinoma after failure of one prior systemic therapy.

It has received FDA (27 January 2012), EMA (13 September 2012), MHRA (3 September 2012) and TGA (26 July 2012) approval for use as a treatment for renal cell carcinoma.[11][12][13][14]

A study published in 2015[15] showed that axitinib effectively inhibits a mutated gene (BCR-ABL1[T315I]) that is common in chronic myeloid leukemias and adult acute lymphoblastic leukemias which have become resistant to other tyrosine kinase inhibitors likeimatinib. This is one of the first examples of a new indication for an existing drug being discovered by screening known drugs using a patient’s own cells.

Abstract Image

The discovery and development of an efficient synthesis route to axinitib is reported. The first-generation route researched by Pfizer implemented two Pd-catalyzed coupling reactions as key steps. In this work, the development of Heck-type and C–S coupling reactions catalyzed by CuI is briefly described, using an economial and practical protocol. Aspects of this route, such as selecting optimal ligands, solvent, and other conditions, are discussed in detail. The scale-up experiment was carried out to provide more than 300 g of active pharmaceutical ingredients of axitinib in Form XLI with 99.9% purity in 39% yield. In short, we provide a new choice of synthesis route to axitinib, through two copper-catalyzed coupling reactions with good yield.

Axitinib (II)

Assi synthesis method for Nepal mainly in the following three ways:

(I) Patent US20060094881 (Agouron Pharmaceuticals), EP2163544 (Pfizer) reported the first synthesis method Axitinib to 3,6-diiodo-indazole as a starting material, first-iodo-6-position is substituted mercapto group, protection of the NH group, then the Heck reaction occurs (pyridine-2-yl) vinyl 3-position, after deprotection Axitinib whole synthesis route is as follows:

Figure CN103570696AD00061

Axitinib Scheme I

This method although the synthesis route is shorter, but the catalyst and reagents used relatively expensive and require purified through the column, the total yield is low, is not conducive to industrial production.

[0004] (2) The second method of synthesis Axitinib e.g. W00102369 (Agouron Pharmaceuticals), US6531491 (Agouron Pharmaceuticals) reported in 6-nitro-indazole as a starting material, the 3-position first iodo, followed by the protecting group NH, Suzuki coupling reaction with boronic acid to give 3- styryl styryl-position, a nitro group reduced to an amino group, an amino diazotization reaction was iodo, the 3-position of the styrene-based ozone of the obtained aldehyde, followed by Wittig reaction to give the 3-position (pyridin-2-yl) ethenyl, 6-position is substituted mercapto iodine, alkaline hydrolysis then amidated, and finally deprotection Axitinib, the entire reaction formula as follows:

Figure CN103570696AD00071

Axitinib Scheme 2

The method of synthesis route is long, harsh reaction conditions, complex process, the total yield is low, does not apply to industrial production.

[0005] (3) The third method is W02006048745 (Pfizer) discloses to 6-nitro-indazole as a starting material, the 3-position iodo first, followed by the protecting group NH, 3- bits Heck coupling reaction, a nitro group reduced to an amino group, an amino diazotization reaction was iodo, iodo-6-position is substituted mercapto group, and finally deprotected to give Axitinib, the entire reaction is as follows:

Figure CN103570696AD00081

This method has an advantage over the first two methods, it is possible to enlarge the production, but the reaction was not complete in the reaction step, will generate new impurities through the column needs to be purified.

Example 15: Final deprotectioπ step to produce 6-r2-(methylcarbamoyl)phenylsulfanyll-3-E-f2- (pyridine-2-yl)ethenyllindazole

 

N-1 THP 6-[2-(methylcarbamoyl)phenylsulfanyl]-3-E-[2-(pyridine-2-yl)ethenyl]indazole (355 g) was suspended in 2,485 ml_ of methanol, after which p-toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate (718 g) was added. The mixture was then heated to 65 0C (hard reflux) for 4 hours under argon while the reaction was monitored by HPLC (gluco method). Heating continued until less than 1% of the N-1 THP protected starting material persisted. The heating was then removed and the reaction was cooled to room temperature. The solid was filtered and the wet cake was washed with methanol (2 volumes, 710 mL) then the solids were rinsed with ethyl acetate (2 volumes, 710 mL). The wet cake was transferred to a reactor containing sodium bicarbonate (126.84 g), deionized water (1800 mL), and ethyl acetate (975 mL), which was then stirred for 2 hours at 2O0C.

Abstract Image

The manufacturing process of axitinib (1) involves two Pd-catalyzed coupling reactions, a Migita coupling and a Heck reaction. Optimization of both of these pivotal bond-formation steps is discussed as well as the approach to control impurities in axitinib. Essential to the control strategy was the optimization of the Heck reaction to minimize formation of impurities, in addition to the development of an efficient isolation of crude axitinib to purge impurities.

Areas of discussion included how expectations for raw material control are evolving within changing regulatory and business paradigms including quality by design (QbD), counterfeiting, complex supply chains, and sourcing changes. discussed risk assessment and mitigation strategies along with supplier risk management plans.

Regulatory Considerations

the lack of a consistent definition of raw materials in regulations pertaining to the pharmaceutical industry. In its Q7 guideline, the International Conference on Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for the Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) defines raw materials as “starting materials, reagents, and solvents intended for use in the production of intermediates or APIs.” However, the term as defined by different speakers could cover a wide range of materials including the following:

• starting or source materials (cell lines, viral or bacterial stocks, media components, chemicals, tissues, serum, water)

• in-process materials (resins, buffers, filters, column housings, tubing, reagents)

• excipients

• packaging components, both primary and secondary (syringes, vials, stoppers, plungers, crimps, boxes, trays, and labels)

• device/delivery components (pen/ injector components, IV bags, filters). Some regulations directly consider the control of raw materials, but they are not comprehensive and are scattered among the US Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), ICH, and other regulations/guidances. Although the regulations are not extensive, the need to control raw materials was clear from all presenters and is implicit in the sources cited below:

• 21 CFR 610.15 regarding constituents

• 21 CFR 211.80 regarding components and containers/closures

• 21 CFR 211.110 regarding control of in-process materials • ICH Q5A/D for cell substrates and viral safety

• ICH Q7 discussing the need to control materials with appropriate specifications

• ICH Q10 stating that a biomanufacturer is responsible for the quality of purchased materials

• the US bill “Country-of-Origin Labeling for Pharmaceutical Ingredients,” proposed in September 2008

• QbD principles requiring an understanding of the criticality of quality attributes for raw materials and their effect on processes and products.

Developing Control

Strategies Control of raw materials is essential to maintaining safety. Thorough knowledge of raw materials can mitigate the potential for contamination derived from such sources as microbes, chemicals, prions, and pyrogens. Raw material control for safety also includes identification — being able to verify that you have received the correct material — because the presence of an incorrectly identified material in a manufacturing process could compromise safety.

Control of raw materials is essential to ensure lot-to-lot consistency because variation in them can directly affect the variation of both product and process. So manufacturers must understand the critical material attributes (CMAs) of their raw materials and which of those affect variability — as well as how to control that variability.

You must show that you are using appropriate analytical methods to characterize raw materials. Raw materials such as polyethylene glycol (PEG) isomers, trace materials in media and water, container and closure materials, and chromatography resins all have the potential to affect lot-to-lot consistency. An effective raw material control program will also ensure consistent supplies.

A single source for a vital raw material can be a significant financial and quality-assurance risk. If a supplier goes out of business or experiences quality problems, can that raw material be obtained elsewhere? Has a second source been qualified in case the primary source is no longer available? Does the second source have the capacity to meet your needs? A QbD approach to raw material control requires that you understand the impact on your product’s critical quality attributes.

You will need to show that you understand the effect of raw material variability on your product as well as on your manufacturing process. Use of multiple lots during development can provide data on raw material lot-to-lot variability and its related effects on process and product. When that is not feasible, a manufacturer may consider including different lots of raw materials during bench-scale studies. In addition to the raw materials themselves, you should gain an understanding of whether and how raw material degradants might affect your process or product.

A QbD approach can use relevant knowledge to help you define how to go about setting specifications, in-process controls (IPCs), and handling conditions. Testing of Raw Materials The forum discussed what levels of testing are important for specific raw materials. A supplier’s certificate of analysis (CoA) is never sufficient for raw materials because good manufacturing practices (GMPs) require appropriate testing, and at a minimum, testing for identity. The material ordered may include additives, preservatives, degradation products, or contaminants. You must verify that the CoA is appropriate for control of the raw material, but you can’t assume that at the outset.

Similarly, CoA verification may be necessary only once a year once your experience with a given supplier has shown that quality is consistent. Vendor qualification is an important factor in defining your testing needs. To ensure the quality of raw materials against adulteration, identity testing is essential. Currently, tests with fingerprint techniques — e.g., nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) imaging and Raman, nearinfrared (NIR), and Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy — are used to assure the identity and quality of raw materials.

Whatever techniques you use, it is important to retain samples for future investigations. Photographic libraries of materials and their packaging have also proven useful for identifying and preventing use of counterfeit products. How often and in how much depth you need to verify a CoA through independent testing is an important consideration, especially for environments in which counterfeiting or contamination can occur.

Once you understand the CMAs of your raw materials, you need to identify which tests are relevant for testing specific quality attributes (QAs) of those raw materials. Sampling plans need careful consideration and should be risk based, dependent on the nature and use of the RM, and any regulatory requirements. Such plans should always be justified in a report available for inspection and/or filing.

It is important to consider RM stability and whether any special tests for degradants are needed for release of the material over time. A stability profile will dictate the purchasing program (storage of large quantities or buying as needed) as well as affect the associated testing strategy.

Supply Quality Management:

Ensuring Quality and Availability It is becoming increasingly evident in the current supply chain environment that management of suppliers and the “cold chain” is essential to assuring the quality of raw materials. How often and how thoroughly you perform vendor audits depends on your experience with a given vendor.

A manufacturer’s general experience with a vendor (prior knowledge) is an important criterion used to evaluate that vendor’s suitability to supply raw materials. Items to consider when selecting a vendor include its quality systems and its solvency, as well as its length of time in business, its geographic area, and whether it supplies multiple industries or just one or two drug manufacturers. Those form part of a risk assessment relating to suppliers to be described in more detail below.

Ensuring both the availability and qualification of secondary suppliers is important as well. Practices such as split purchasing may help ensure that you have good working relationships with multiple vendors. Strict change control sections should be included in supplier agreements and should include details requiring a vendor to notify you of changes in its product or suppliers. Such agreements should also provide for impact assessments from both supplier and manufacturer in the event that a supplier makes any changes. Supply chain traceability is not as straightforward as it might seem.

Although most manufacturers use country-of-origin (COO) questionnaires, those often prove less than ideal in revealing what you need to know. It is critical to craft questions that get the in-depth answers you need. For example, rather than asking “Do you purchase supplies from any high-risk countries?” you might ask “From what countries do you purchase supplies?” If the specified countries include any you consider to be high risk, you can follow up or choose another supplier.

It is critical to use risk-assessment techniques for determining traceability to avoid a false sense of security that can lead to costly or even deadly errors. It is sometimes unclear exactly what roles are played by whom in a supply chain.

Which companies are manufacturers, which are distributors, and which are intermediaries is not necessarily clear. A company that simply repackages a raw material from 55-gallon drums into smaller containers may consider itself a manufacturer. Due diligence will help ensure that you really know where your raw materials originated. As part of assessing supply chain complexity, forum participants were informed of a proposed program whereby industry creates a system of cooperative audits in which vendors would be audited by a selected team representing all industry rather than multiple auditors from each company continuously auditing suppliers.

The resulting audits would lead to certification that would assure all purchasers that each vendor meets certain defined criteria. Such a “360° Rx” program would enable increased depth of supplier audits and save manufacturers time and money (see box, right). The Role of Compendial Standards: Compendia provide some assurance of minimum quality standards for specified materials. However, compendial standards may differ among the pharmacopoeias.

Few of the complex raw materials (e.g., culture media, soy, yeastolates, most growth factors) used in biotechnology manufacturing are compendial, and those that are (e.g., insulin) may not have the appropriate compendial limits on specific quality attributes — or even test for quality attributes necessary to control pharmaceutical manufacturing. Even for standard chemical raw materials (e.g., trace metals), compendial standards may not focus on quality attributes relevant for biotechnology process and product quality assurance.

Those may be product- and/or process-specific. Furthermore, compendial standards do not necessarily help control for contamination, counterfeiting, or supply chain issues because a supplier can simply state it meets compendia — a statement that currently requires no certification

Risk Management

Risk assessments are an important tool for ensuring the safety, efficacy, consistency, and supply of pharmaceutical products. Many companies in both the United States and the European Union are using ICH Q9 as a basis for risk assessment, control, communication, and future review.

Risk assessments should begin by identifying all raw materials and assessing their criticality to product safety, efficacy, and supply. RM risk assessments require cross-functional input from all departments including supply, product development, manufacturing, quality control, quality assurance, clinical, and any other contributors. It was clear from this forum’s discussions that risk assessments are only as good as the people who carry them out. Having the right expertise over a spectrum of areas is vital if any risk assessment is to be meaningful. Multiple risk assessment tools exist, but in general, a good risk assessment must address concepts such as impact/ severity and likelihood/detectability.

One tool discussed at the forum (Figure 1) used nine blocks to score a supplier’s performance against material risk levels for audits, supplier qualification, supplier monitoring, change control, material specifications and testing, quality agreements, supplier certification, and sourcing, or other appropriate combinations of factors. Risk assessment should also be performed in relation to country of origin. It is critical to be able to trace your raw materials to their source. Just as a biopharmaceutical manufacturer audits its suppliers, those suppliers must also know, audit, and qualify their own distributors.

It is now well known that there are high-risk geographic areas where additional caution should be exercised to assure purity and identity of sourced materials. A potentially overlooked risk assessment issue is that manufacturers need to evaluate their raw materials and products in relation to opportunities for someone to make a profit through adulteration (e.g., by diluting a product to increase volume, and thus sales income). Any materials identified in such an evaluation should be managed with particular caution.

Risk assessments ensure that appropriate control strategies and raw materials (e.g., grade, origin) have been selected, which is relevant to a QbD approach. For regulatory filings, acceptable specifications, raw materials, and control strategies are tested with the necessary acceptance criteriia to ensure the performance of a process and the quality of its ultimate products. A periodic risk review should include more than a mere cursory review of individual risk assessments. It should reevaluate the risk program itself based on experience and lessons learned. Your risk assessment should be phase-appropriate, and as such it will change as data become available throughout development.

Early on, your raw materials risk assessment can be based on platform and previous knowledge, on the quality assurance of your suppliers, and adventitious agent introduction. As a manufacturing process develops, you will need to reevaluate that risk assessment including commercial considerations of scale and production frequency, highrisk raw materials control strategy, and handling and storage requirements.

During commercialization, design of experiments (DoEs) and collated knowledge will further define the CQAs of both product and RMs as well as potential and actual interactions among RMs, process, and product. At that point, you will be able to define and justify the raw materials for your commercial process and refine their specifications.

By the time your product is ready for market launch, you will have updated the failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA), completed your raw materials specifications, set your sourcing strategy, put in place your supplier qualification program, defined your raw material control strategy, and made your risk assessment ready for filing. The morning’s session resulted in a list of elements to be included in a raw materials risk assessment

 

Elements of Raw Material

Risk Assessments Is the raw material biological, chemical, or physical (such as tubing or stoppers, materials that are not actual components of the end product)? How likely is the raw material to introduce biological or chemical contamination?

Is the raw material or are its degradants able to directly affect the safety and/or efficacy of a drug substance (e.g., toxicity, chemical modifications)?

How complex is the raw material itself or its impurity profile? How much prior knowledge (e.g., historical or published knowledge, current experience) do you have regarding the raw material? What is the Intended use of the raw material (e.g., as a buffer, reagent, or excipient)?

Where in the manufacturing process will this raw material will be used (upstream/ downstream)?

What is the extent of supply chain traceability (considering country of origin, supply chain complexity, and supply chain security)?

What is the extent of supplier quality assurance (from audits, monitoring, historical experience)?

How extensive is the characterization of the raw material (how well can the raw material be characterized; standard existing methods or novel techniques; the RM’s impact on test methods)?

How stable is the raw material? Is the raw material new to the process or a result of a change to an existing raw material (if a change, what studies have been executed to assure comparability)?

What is the depth of knowledge of the RM’s own manufacturing process to assess the risk associated with its use (e.g., process contaminants)?

Does the use of the raw material in a manufacturing environment present safety and/or handling risks? Does your process have the ability to clear the raw material?

Are there associated business risks (e.g., a solesource or multiple-source material, unique or not to the pharmaceutical industry, custom-made or not, and the supplier’s ability to consistently meet specific requirements)?

What is your level of understanding of the raw material CMAs?

Frequently Used QbD Terms 

 

Quality Attribute: A physical, chemical, or microbiological property or characteristic of a material that directly or indirectly alters quality Critical Quality Attribute (CQA): A quality attribute that must be controlled within predefined limits to ensure that a product meets its intended safety, efficacy, stability, and performance
Real-Time Release (RTR): Ability to evaluate and ensure acceptable quality of an in-process and/or final product based on process data, including valid combination of assessment of material attributes by direct and/or indirect process measurements and assessment of critical process parameters and their effects on in-process material attributes Process Parameter: An input variable or condition of a manufacturing process that can be directly controlled in the process. Typically, such parameters are physical or chemical (e.g., temperature, process time, column flow rate, column volume, reagent concentration, or buffer pH).
Critical Process Parameter (CPP): A process parameter whose variability has an influence on a CQA and therefore should be monitored or controlled to ensure a process produces a desired quality. Process Performance Attribute: An output variable or outcome that cannot be directly controlled but is an indicator that a process performed as expected
Key Process Parameter (KPP): An input process parameter that should be carefully controlled within a narrow range and is essential for process performance; a key process parameter does not affect product quality attributes. If the acceptable range is exceeded, it may affect the process (e.g., yield, duration) but not product quality. Non-Key Process Parameter: An input parameter that has been demonstrated to be easily controlled or has a wide acceptable limit. Such parameters may influence quality or process performance if acceptable limits are exceeded.
Design Space: The multidimensional combination and interaction of input variables (e.g., material attributes) and process parameters that have been demonstrated to provide assurance of quality; working within a design space is not considered to be a change requiring regulatory approval. Movement out of a design space is considered to be a change and would normally initiate a regulatory postapproval change process. Design space is proposed by an applicant and is subject to regulatory assessment and approval (ICH Q8). Control Strategy: A planned set of controls, derived from current product and process understanding, that ensures process performance and product quality; such controls can include parameters and attributes related to drug substance and drug product materials and components, facility and equipment operating conditions, in-process controls, finished-product specifications, and associated methods, and frequency of monitoring and control (ICH Q10).
Quality Target Product Profile (QTPP): A prospective summary of the quality characteristics of a drug product that ideally will be achieved to ensure desired quality, taking into account safety and efficacy of a drug product

ALOGLIPTIN

Alogliptin is a potent, selective inhibitor of DPP-4 with IC50 of <10 nM, exhibits greater than 10,000-fold selectivity over DPP-8 and DPP-9.

Alogliptin (trade name Nesina in the US[1] and Vipidia in Europe[2]) is an orally administered anti-diabetic drug in the DPP-4 inhibitor class,[3] developed by Syrrx, a company which was acquired by Takeda Pharmaceutical Company in 2005. Like other medications for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes, alogliptin does not decrease the risk of heart attack and stroke. Like other members of the gliptin class, it causes little or no weight gain, exhibits relatively little risk of causing hypoglycemia, and exhibits relatively modest glucose-lowering activity. Alogliptin and other gliptins are commonly used in combination with metformin in patients whose diabetes cannot adequately be controlled with metformin alone.[4]

Clinical study

Alogliptin is a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor (DPP-4i) that is designed to slow the inactivation of incretin hormones GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) and GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide). [5]

A randomized clinical trial reporting in 2011 aimed to determine the efficacy and safety of alogliptin versus placebo and vogliboseamong newly diagnosed Type 2 diabetes patients in Japan. The main outcome indicated that alogliptin was statistically superior to both comparitors.[6]

A randomized clinical trial reporting in 2012 aimed to demonstrate that alogliptin was “non-inferior” to a “very low fat/calorie traditional Japanese diet” among newly diagnosed Type 2 diabetes patients in Japan. The outcome indicated that both the drug and dietary treatments comparably impacted indicators of the diabetic condition, such as HbA1c levels and glycemic efficacy. The drug treatment had its impact without changing body mass index (BMI), but the dietary treatment was accompanied by a significant reduction in the BMI.[7]

A randomized clinical trial reporting in 2011 aimed to demonstrate the efficacy of alogliptin as an add-on agent in combination withmetformin and pioglitazone versus simply increasing the dosage of pioglitazone in combination with metformin; in other words, this was a study to look at a three-agent therapy versus a two-agent therapy. The outcome of this study suggested that the addition of alogliptin to metformin and pioglitazone provided superior impact on diabetes biomarkers (e.g. HbA1c) than increasing the dose of pioglitazone in a two agent therapy with metformin.[8]

Reported adverse events

Adverse events appear to be restricted to mild hypoglycemia based on clinical studies.[6][7][8]

Alogliptin is not associated with increased weight, increased risk of cardiovasular events, or heart failure.[9][10]

Market access

In December 2007, Takeda submitted a New Drug Application (NDA) for alogliptin to the United States Food and Drug Adminiistration (USFDA),[11] after positive results from Phase III clinical trials.[1] In September of 2008, the company also filed for approval in Japan,[12] winning approval in April 2010.[11] The company also filed a Marketing Authorization Application (MAA) elsewhere outside the United States, which was withdrawn in June 2009 needing more data.[12] The first USFDA NDA failed to gain approval and was followed by a pair of NDAs (one for alogliptin and a second for a combination of alogliptin and pioglitazone) in July 2011.[11] In 2012, Takeda received a negative response from the USFDA on both of these NDAs, citing a need for additional data.[11]

In 2013 the FDA approved the drug in three formulations: As a stand-alone with the brand-name Nesina. Combined with metforminusing the name Kazano, and when combined with pioglitazone as Oseni.

Diabetes affects millions of people worldwide and is considered one of the main threats to human health in the 21st century. In 2006, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimated that over 180 million people worldwide had diabetes, and the number is projected to double by 2030. Over time, uncontrolled diabetes can damage body systems, including the heart, blood vessels, eyes, kidneys and nerves. According to the WHO, approximately 1.1 million people died from diabetes in 2005, and it is estimated that diabetes-related deaths will increase by more than 50% in the next decade. Globally, the socioeconomic burden of diabetes is substantial.

There are two main types of diabetes, designated type 1 and type 2, with type 2 diabetes accounting for over 90% of all diabetes cases globally. Type 1 diabetes is characterized by insulin deficiency, primarily caused by autoimmune-mediated destruction of pancreatic islet β-cells, and type 2 diabetes is characterized by abnormal insulin secretion and concomitant insulin resistance. To prevent the development of ketoacidosis, people with type 1 diabetes must take exogenous insulin for survival. Although those with type 2 diabetes are not dependent on exogenous insulin as much as subjects with type 1 diabetes, they may require exogenous insulin to control blood glucose levels.

As diabetes has become a global health concern, research interest in the condition has rapidly increased. In addition to studies on prevention, many studies with the aim of developing new interventions for the treatment of diabetes, especially type 2 diabetes, have been conducted. Currently available medications for the treatment and management of type 2 diabetes include metformin, sulfonylureas, thiazolidinediones and insulin. However, these therapies are commonly associated with secondary failure and may cause hypoglycemia. Insulin resistance and progressively worsening hyperglycemia caused by reduced β-cell function are major challenges in managing type 2 diabetes. Evidence suggests that patients with insulin resistance do not develop hyperglycemia until their β-cells are unable to produce enough insulin. New agents that can enhance insulin secretion from islet β-cells in a sustained glucose-dependent manner could therefore hold promise for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.

One promising approach is based on inhibition of the serine protease dipeptidyl- peptidase IV (DPP IV), a postproline dipeptidyl aminopeptidase that belongs to the S9b peptidase family of proteolytic enzymes. It is known that DPP IV plays a key role in maintaining glucose homeostasis by controlling the incretin activity of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-I) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP, also known as gastric inhibitory polypeptide). Inhibition of DPP IV is therefore recognized as a novel therapeutic approach for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.

Recently, a series of DPP IV inhibitors were developed. Among these highly potent compounds, alogliptin benzoate (SYR-322) and its analogs demonstrated encouraging antidiabetic efficacy (EP 1586571 (WO 2005/095381); WO 2008/067465; WO 2007/035379, and US 2004/097510).

Alogliptin benzoate can be prepared as described in EP 1586571 (WO 2005/095381) according to the process set forth in Scheme 1 :

Figure imgf000004_0001

Scheme 1

In accordance with this process, 6-Chlorouracil (1) is alkylated with 2- (bromomethyl)benzonitrile in the presence of NaH and LiBr in a mixture of DMF- DMSO to produce the TV-benzyluracil derivative (2) in 54% yield. Compound (2) is further alkylated with iodomethane and NaH in DMF/THF to give the 1 ,3 disubstituted uracil (3) in 72% yield. Subsequent displacement of chlorouracil (IV) with 3(R)- aminopiperidine dihydrochloride in the presence of either NaHCO3 in hot methanol or K2CO3 in aqueous isopropanol provides alogliptin (4), which is isolated as the corresponding benzoate salt by treatment with benzoic acid in ethanol. The overall yield of this three-stage process is -20-25%. One of the disadvantages of above described process is the difficulty to separate and purify mixtures of solvents with high boiling point (for example, DMF/DMSO) for recycling. Another disadvantage is the usage of hazardous materials such as sodium hydride, which requires anhydrous solvents as a reaction media.

Intermediate 2-((6-chloro-3-methyl-2,4-dioxo-3 ,4-dihydropyrimidin- 1 (2H)-yl)methyl) benzonitrile (3) is alternatively obtained by alkylation of 6-chloro-3 methyluracil with 2-(bromomethyl)benzonitrile by means of diisopropylethylamine in hot NMP (WO 2007/035629). Although this process is more technological than the previously described process (EP 1586571), the overall yield is still moderate (50-55%). The problem of mixed solvents (toluene, NMP, diisopropylethylamine) separation persists for this process as well.

a). l-(2-isocyanobenzyl)-3-methylpyrimidine-2,4,6(lH,3H,5H)-trione (30 g) was mixed with phosphorus oxychloride (300 ml) and cooled to 0°C. Water (9 ml) was added slowly, stirred for 10 min. and heated to reflux at 110°C for 5h. Progress of the reaction was monitored by TLC (50% Ethyl acetate/Hexane). On completion of the reaction, phosphorus oxychloride was distilled off. The crude compound was dissolved in dichloromethane (500 ml) and poured into ice water (500 ml) by small portions. The layers were separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with dichloromethane (200 ml). The combined organic extracts were washed with water and brine, dried over sodium sulphate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The mixture of two isomers (4-chloro and 6-chloro derivatives = 1:1) was isolated and separated by column chromatography using neutral alumina and eluent – 25-50% of ethylacetate and hexane). The off-white solid was obtained, yield – 37%, purity – 99.8%. 1H NMR corresponds to literature data (J. Med. Chem. 2007, 50, 2297-2300).

GEMIGLIPTIN

1-[2(S)-Amino-4-[2,4-bis(trifluoromethyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropyrido[3,4-d]pyrimidin-7-yl]-4-oxobutyl]-5,5-difluoropiperidin-2-one

PHASE 3, DPP-IV inhibitor, Lg Life Sciences Ltd.

CAS 911637-19-9

Mol. Formula:   C18H19F8N5O2

Mol. Weight:489.36

Gemigliptin (rINN), previously identified as LC15-0444, is an oral anti-hyperglycemic agent (anti-diabetic drug) of the new dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor class of drugs.[1] It is well known that glucose lowering effects of DPP-4 inhibitors are mainly mediated by GLP-1 and gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) incretin hormones which are inactivated by DPP-4.

Gemigliptin was initially developed solely by LG Life Sciences. In 2010, Double-Crane Pharmaceutical Co. (DCPC) joined with LGLS to co-develop the final compound and collaborate on the marketing of the drug in China. LGLS also announced on Nov., 2010 that NOBEL Ilac has been granted rights to develop and commercialize gemigliptin in Turkey.

Gemigliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase IV (CD26; DPP-IV; DP-IV) inhibitor, is currently undergoing phase III clinical trials at LG Life Sciences as an oral treatment for type II diabetes. The company is also testing the compound in phase II/III clinical studies for the treatment of patients with cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury.

DPP IV inhibitors have glucose-lowering effects mediated by GLP-1 incretin hormone which is inactivated by DPP IV. In 2010, gemigliptin was licensed to Beijing Double-Crane Pharmaceutical by LG Life Sciences for distribution and supply in China for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.

New Drug Application (NDA) for gemigliptin in the treatment of type 2 diabetes was submitted to the Korea Food & Drug Administration (KFDA) in July 2011. Then on June 27, 2012, the KFDA has approved the manufacture and distribution of LG Life Sciences’ diabetes treatment, Zemiglo, the main substance of which is gemigliptin. Clinical trials for evaluating the safety and efficacy of gemigliptin in combination with metformin have been completed.

…………

Efficient synthesis of gemigliptin, a potent and selective DPP-4 inhibitor for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus, has been developed. Gemigliptin were prepared from two key API starting materials, DP18 and DP57, in 75~80% yield and >99% purity over three steps under the GMP control: coupling, deprotection of N-Boc group, and final crystallization with L-tartaric acid. All steps were conducted in the same solvent system and the intermediates were isolated by simple filtration without distillation of solvent. The established process was validated obviously through the three consecutive batches for a commercial production.

History

The NDA for gemigliptin was submitted to KFDA in July, 2011 and it was approved on June 27, 2012. By the end of 2012, gemigliptin will be marketed in Korea as Zemiglo which is the fifth new DPP-4 inhibitor diabetes treatment in the world.

Mechanism of action

DPP-4 is a serine protease located on the cell surfaces throughout the body. In plasma, DPP-4 enzyme rapidly inactivates incretins including GLP-1 and GIP which are produced in the intestine depending on the blood glucose level and contribute to the physiological regulation of glucose homeostatis. Active GLP-1 and GIP increase the production and release of insulin by pancreatinc beta cells. GLP-1 also reduces the scretion of glucacon by pancreatic alpha cells, thereby resulting in a decreased hepatic glucose production. However these incretins are rapidly cleaved by DPP-4 and their effects last only for a few minutes. DPP-4 inhibitors block the cleavage of the gliptins and thus lead to an increasee insulin level and a reduced glucagon level in a glucose-dependent way. This results in a decrease of fasting and postprandial glycemia, as well as HbA1c levels.[2]

Preclinical studies

Gemigliptin is a competitive, reversible DPP-4 inhibitor (IC50 = 16 nM) with excellent selectivity over other critical human proteases such as DPP-2, DPP-8DPP-9elastase,trypsinurokinase and cathepsin G. Gemigliptin was rapidly absorbed after single oral dosing and the compound was eliminated with a half-life of 3.6 h, 5.2 h, and 5.4 h in the rat, dog, and monkey, respectively.

The bioavailability of gemigliptin in the rat, dog, and monkey was species-dependent with the values of 94%, 73%, and 26%, respectively. Following the oral administration of gemigliptin in the rat, dog and monkey, about 80% inhibition of plasma DPP-4 activity were observed at the plasma levels of 18 nM, 14 nM and 4 nM, respectively.

In the diet-induced obese (DIO) mice, gemigliptin reduced glucose excursion during OGTT in a dose dependent manner with the minimum effective dose of 0.3 mg/kg and enhanced glucose-stimulated plasma GLP-1 increase in a dose dependent manner reaching the maximum effect at the dose of 1 mg/kg.

Following 4 week oral repeat dosing in the DIO mice, gemigliptin reduced significantly HbA1c with the minimum effective dose of 3 mg/kg. In the beagle dog, gemigliptin significantly enhanced active GLP-1, decreased glucagon, and reduced glucose excursion during OGTT following a single dosing.

Studies on animals suggest its positive effect on hepatic and renal fibrosis .[3][4] Data on human patients are still inconclusive .[5]

 

Clinical studies

The dose-range finding phase 2 study was performed and 145 patients (91men and 54 women) with type 2 diabetes mellitus were enrolled. All three doses (50,100 and 200 mg groups) of gemigliptin significantly reduced the HbA1c from baseline compared to the placebo group without a significant difference between the doses.

Subjects with a higher baseline HbA1c (≥8.5%) had a greater reduction in HbA1c. Insulin secretory function, as assessed using homeostasis model assessment-beta cell, C-peptide and the insulinogenic index, improved significantly with gemigliptin treatment. Insulin sensitivity, as assessed using homeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance, also improved significantly after 12 weeks of treatment.

The 50 and 200 mg groups had significantly reduced total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels at 12 weeks compared to the placebo group.

The incidences of adverse events were similar in all study subjects. Gemigliptin monotherapy (50 mg for 12 weeks) improved the HbA1cFPG level, oral glucose tolerance testresults, β-cell function and insulin sensitivity measures, and was well tolerated in subjects with type 2 diabetes.

Results of Phase 3 clinical trials which have been finished recently will be updated near future.
