Title: | Malate salt of N-(4-{[6,7-bis(methyloxy)quinolin-4-yl]oxy}phenyl)-N'(4-fluorophenyl)cycl- opropane-1,1-dicarboxamide, and crystalline forms therof for the treatment of cancer |
Abstract: | Disclosed are malate salts of N-(4-{[6,7-bis(methyloxy)-quinolin-4-yl]oxy}phenyl)-N'-(4-fluorophenyl)cy- clopropane-1,1-dicarboxamide, including a (L)-malate salt, a (D)-malate salt, a (DL) malate salt, and mixtures thereof; and crystalline and amorphous forms of the malate salts. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions comprising at least one malate salts of N-(4-{[6,7-bis(methyloxy)quinolin-4-yl]oxy}phenyl)-N'-(4-fluorophenyl)-cy- clopropane-1,1-dicarboxamide; and methods of treating cancer comprising administering at least one malate salt of N-(4-{[6,7-bis(methyloxy)quinolin-4-yl]oxy}phenyl)-N'-(4-fluorophenyl)cyc- lopropane-1,1-dicarboxamide. |
