Session Description and Objectives

  • Synchrotron X-ray Pair Distribution

Function (SXPDF) techniques provide valuable information about amorphous materials and dispersions.

  • What is PDF?
  • Why is a synchrotron needed?
  • Domains of drug molecules in a

dispersion

  • Stability
  • Latest advances

XRD vs. PDF … global view vs. local view

XRD (Bragg diffraction)

  • Average structure, or global view
  • f the structure
  • Peaks in the pattern represent

periodic occurrences of an atomic plane in a crystal

  • There is also information between

and underneath the Bragg peaks

  • We can extract this additional

information by mathematical methods and the right experimental techniques PDF (atomic pair distribution function)

  • Fourier transform of XRD
  • Yields local structure, environment of

the atom

  • How many neighbors are there and

how far away are they?

  • Determines the distribution of

distances between pairs of atoms

Synchrotron XRPD is required

Qmax affects SNR and resolution

  • Data quality at large Q-values

reflects the importance of using a high-energy X-ray beam

  • More Q-space provides more

data for the Fourier transform; leads to better quality data

  • If Qmax is too low, resolution

suffers keV 114.76 61.62 17 19.6

PDF of Drug/Polymer Dispersion

  • Industry need
  • Amorphous forms have better solubility, but can be difficult to keep

amorphous

  • Drug/polymer dispersions are one solution
  • How to know which dispersions will successfully inhibit crystallization?
  • PDF
  • API molecules in close contact with each other increase the likelihood
  • f crystallization
  • Can differentiate PDF of drug from PDF of polymer
  • PDF can determine if API domains exist
  • Lack of API domains are desired

Lapatinib Drug/Polymer Dispersion Study

Comparison of measurement X-ray factors

Pure polymer 1:3 API/Polymer 1:1 API/Polymer 3:1 API/Polymer Pure amorphous API Pure crystalline API

  • Residual crystallinity of lapatinib can be seen in several samples, including the “pure” amorphous API

Lapatinib Drug/Polymer Dispersion Study

Total PDF curves and intra/inter PDF curves

  • Separate the total PDF curve into separate components
  • Subtract components to reveal differences

Lapatinib Drug/Polymer Dispersion Study

Differential PDF curves

HPMCP dispersions HPMC-E3 dispersions

  • The only dispersion lacking intermolecular API interactions (no NN API domains)
  • The only dispersion that remained amorphous after stress testing at 40 ˚C/75% RH
