RESUMEN
Amorphous forms of disodium etidronate were prepared by three manufacturing methods, heat drying, freeze drying, and anti-solvent precipitation, and the effects of these methods on the physical properties of disodium etidronate amorphous forms were evaluated for the first time. Variable temperature X-ray powder diffraction and thermal analyses revealed that these amorphous forms had different physical properties such as glass transition point, water desorption, and crystallization temperatures. These differences can be explained by the molecular mobility and water content in amorphous forms. The differences in the structural characteristics related to the differences in these physical properties could not be detected clearly by the spectroscopic methods like Raman spectroscopy and X-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy. Dynamic vapor sorption analyses demonstrated that all amorphous forms were hydrated to form I, a tetrahydrated form, at above 50% relative humidity, and the transition to form I was irreversible. These amorphous forms require strict humidity control to avoid crystallization. Among the three amorphous forms of disodium etidronate, the amorphous form prepared by heat drying was the most suitable for manufacturing the solid formulation, considering the low water content and low molecular mobility.

PURPOSE: Disodium etidronate is a bisphosphonate, compounds that are widely used in the treatment of bone disorders such as osteoporosis and Paget's disease. We investigated the physical properties of disodium etidronate tetrahydrate crystal, form I. METHODS: We used X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), thermal analysis, dynamic vapor sorption (DVS), X-ray single crystal structure analysis, and phosphorus K-edge X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy for the first time. RESULTS: XRPD and thermal analyses demonstrated that form I was dehydrated and transformed to an amorphous form, to a crystalline form II, and finally to a form III by heating. DVS measurements revealed that the amorphous form, form II, and form III were rehydrated to form I by humidification, and form I was stable even at 0% relative humidity. These results indicate that form I is the most stable solid-state under ambient conditions and is suitable as an API for manufacture in solid formulations. The phosphorus K-edge XANES spectra differed among form I, the amorphous form, and form II, which may be ascribed to the difference in the coordinate bond schemes between the phosphate moieties and sodium ions. The results demonstrated that the phosphorus K-edge XANES spectroscopy could be applied to the identification or the discrimination of crystal forms of the APIs containing phosphate moieties. CONCLUSIONS: Acquired information about physical properties are crucial for manufacturing of solid formulations of disodium etidronate. XANES spectroscopy is a promising alternative method for evaluating the solid-state forms of APIs.

We report on the identification of 2-({6-[(3R)-3-amino-3-methylpiperidine-1-yl]-1,3-dimethyl-2,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-5H-pyrrolo[3,2-d]pyrimidine-5-yl}methyl)-4-fluorobenzonitrile (DSR-12727) (7a) as a potent and orally active DPP-4 inhibitor without mechanism-based inactivation of CYP3A. Compound 7a showed good DPP-4 inhibitory activity (IC(50)=1.1 nM), excellent selectivity against related peptidases and other off-targets, good pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile, great in vivo efficacy in Zucker-fatty rat, and no safety concerns both in vitro and in vivo.

In order to design orally active carbapenem antibiotics effective against beta-lactam-resistant pathogens, such as penicillin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae (PRSP) and beta-lactamase non-producing ampicillin-resistant Haemophilus influenzae (BLNAR), a series of novel 2-phenylcarbapenems and some 2-thienyl derivatives were synthesized and tested for antibacterial activities. These compounds were highly active against PRSP, BLNAR, and major Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria that cause community-acquired infections. Their pivaloyloxymethylester-type prodrug exhibited good oral absorption in mice, suggesting that this series of carbapenems were promising as a prototype of novel orally active beta-lactams.
