Application Number:11/440,032
Patent Litigation and PTAB cases: See patent lawsuits and PTAB cases for patent 8,372,995
Patent Claims: 1. A Form I tigecycline having X-ray powder diffraction peaks at about 5.2.degree. 2.theta., about 8.3.degree. 2.theta., about 11.1.degree. 2.theta., and about 24.8.degree. 2.theta. and having a hot stage melting point onset temperature of about 170.degree. C. to about 172.degree. C.

2. A composition consisting essentially of Form I tigecycline having X-ray powder diffraction peaks at about 5.2.degree. 2.theta., about 8.3.degree. 2.theta., about 11.1.degree. 2.theta., and about 24.8.degree. 2.theta. and having a hot stage melting point onset temperature of about 170.degree. C. to about 172.degree. C.

3. A process for preparing Form I tigecycline comprising crystallizing tigecycline out of a solution to form a slurry, and filtering the slurry to isolate Form I tigecycline having X-ray powder diffraction peaks at about 5.2.degree. 2.theta., about 8.3.degree. 2.theta., about 11.1.degree. 2.theta., and about 24.8.degree. 2.theta. and having a hot stage melting point onset temperature of about 170.degree. C. to about 172.degree. C.

4. The process of claim 3 wherein the solution contains methylene chloride.

5. The process of claim 3 further comprising drying the solution prior to the crystallizing step.

6. The process of claim 3 further comprising stirring the slurry prior to the filtering step.

7. The process of claim 3 further comprising combining said Form I tigecycline with at least one pharmaceutically suitable carrier to form a pharmaceutical composition.

8. A pharmaceutical composition made by the process of claim 7.

9. The process of claim 7 further comprising lyophilizing said pharmaceutical composition.

10. A pharmaceutical composition made by the process of claim 9.
