niraparib tosylate monohydrate and abiraterone acetate - Generic Medications

AKEEGA ® (niraparib and abiraterone acetate) tablets contain niraparib tosylate (as the monohydrate) and abiraterone acetate. Niraparib Niraparib is a poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor. The chemical name for niraparib tosylate monohydrate is 2-{4-[(3S)-piperidin-3-yl]phenyl}- 2H -indazole 7-carboxamide 4-methylbenzenesulfonate hydrate (1:1:1). The molecular formula is C 26 H 30 N 4 O 5 S and it has a molecular weight of 510.61 g/mol. The molecular structure is shown below: Niraparib tosylate monohydrate is a white to off-white, non-hygroscopic crystalline solid. Niraparib tosylate monohydrate is highly soluble in aqueous media over the pH range 1.2 to 6.8 (1.65–1.77 mg/mL determined at 37 ± 1°C). Chemical Structure Abiraterone Acetate Abiraterone acetate is the acetyl ester of abiraterone. Abiraterone is an inhibitor of CYP17 (17α-hydroxylase/C17,20-lyase). Its molecular formula is C 26 H 33 N O 2 and it has a molecular weight of 391.55 g/mol. Abiraterone acetate is designated chemically as (3β)-17-(3-pyridinyl) androsta-5,16-dien-3-yl acetate and its structure is: Abiraterone acetate is a white to off-white, non-hygroscopic, crystalline powder. Abiraterone acetate is a lipophilic compound with an octanol-water partition coefficient of 5.12 (Log P) and is practically insoluble in water. The pKa of the aromatic nitrogen is 5.19.
