BACKGROUND methanesulfonyl-ethyl-4-acetylaminoisoindoline-1,3-di one. Without being limited by theory, Compound A is 0003 Drug substances are usually administered as part of believed to be (+)-2-1-(3-ethoxy-4-methoxy-phenyl)-2- a formulation in combination with one or more other agents methanesulfonyl-ethyl-4-acetylaminoisoindoline-1,3-di that serve varied and specialized pharmaceutical functions. one, which has the following structure: Dosage forms of various types may be made through selective use of pharmaceutical excipients. As pharmaceutical excipi ents have various functions and contribute to the pharmaceu Compound A tical formulations in many different ways, e.g., solubilization, dilution, thickening, stabilization, preservation, coloring, fla O Voring, etc. The properties that are commonly considered when formulating an active drug Substance include bioavail ability, ease of manufacture, ease of administration, and sta O O bility of the dosage form. Due to the varying properties of the active drug Substance to be formulated, dosage forms typi N O cally require pharmaceutical excipients that are uniquely tai lored to the active drug Substance in order to achieve advan / tageous physical and pharmaceutical properties. /\ 0004 (+)-2-1-(3-ethoxy-4-methoxy-phenyl)-2-meth anesulfonyl-ethyl-4-acetylaminoisoindoline-1,3-dione N" O O (“Compound A') is a compound with anti-inflammatory O activity in clinical development for the treatment of a variety of chronic inflammatory conditions. Pharmacologically, 0008. As used herein and unless otherwise indicated, a Compound A blocks the degradation of cyclic adenosine composition that is “substantially free” of a compound means monophosphate (cAMP) via inhibition of the phosphodi that the composition contains less than about 20 percent by esterase type IV (PDE4) enzyme, resulting in an increase in weight, more preferably less than about 10 percent by weight, cAMP in PDE4-expressing cells including monocytes, T even more preferably less than about 5 percent by weight, and cells, and neutrophils. Enzyme assay data using purified most preferably less than about 3 percent by weight of the PDE4 enzyme from U937 human monocytic cells indicate compound. that Compound A has a PDE4 ICs of about 74 nM. Com 0009. As used herein and unless otherwise indicated, the pound A and methods for its synthesis are described, e.g., in term "stereomerically pure’ means a composition that com U.S. Pat.

For example, a 0005. Due to its diversified pharmacological properties, Stereomerically pure composition of a compound having one Compound A is useful in treating, preventing, and/or manag chiral center will be substantially free of the opposite enan ing various diseases or disorders. Thus, a need exists as to tiomer of the compound. A stereomerically pure composition dosage forms of Compound Ahaving advantageous physical of a compound having two chiral centers will be substantially and pharmaceutical properties. free of other diastereomers of the compound.
