Abstract Background Tofacitinib—an oral JAK inhibitor—has been recently approved by US FDA to treat moderate to severe RA. The delivery of tofacitinib to specific inflammation site at joint via topical route using nanoformulations helps in managing the potential adverse effects. The objective is to develop and validate a simple, specific, and sensitive stability-indicating HPLC method for quantification of tofacitinib in topical nanoformulations and different matrices (adhesive tape, and skin layers, i.e., stratum corneum, viable epidermis, and dermis). The major objective was to avoid use of instruments like LC–MS/MS and to ensure a widespread application of the method. Result A 32 factorial ‘design of experiments’ was applied to optimize process variables, to understand the effect of variables on peak properties. The calibration curve showed regression coefficient (R2) 0.9999 and linearity in the concentration range of 50 to 15,000 ng/mL, which is suitable for the analysis of conventional dosage forms and nanoformulations. Method validation was performed as per ICH guideline Q2 (R1). The accuracy by recovery studies ranged between 98.09 and 100.82%. The % relative standard deviations in intraday and interday precisions were in the range of 1.16–1.72 and 1.22–1.80%, respectively. Forced degradation studies indicated the specificity of method and showed stability-indicating potential for tofacitinib peak. Conclusion The validated method provides a quantification method of tofacitinib in the presence of formulation excipients, dissolution media, and skin tissues in detail. In addition, the method was successfully utilized for determination of various dermatokinetics profile of tofacitinib.

A rapid and stability-indicating RP-HPLC method was developed for determination of l-carnitine in tablets. The separation was based on a C18 analytical column using a mobile phase which consisted of 0.05 M phosphate buffer (pH = 3): ethanol (99 : 1), including 0.56 mg/mL of sodium 1-heptanesulfonate. Column temperature was set at 50°C and quantitation was achieved by UV detection at 225 nm. In forced degradation studies, the drug was subjected to oxidation, hydrolysis, photolysis, and heat. Among the different stress conditions, the exposure to acidic and basic conditions was found to be an important adverse stability factor. The method was validated for specificity, selectivity, linearity, precision, accuracy, and robustness. The applied procedure was found to be linear in l-carnitine concentration range of 84.74–3389.50 µg/mL (r2=0.9997). Precision was evaluated by replicate analysis in which relative standard deviation (RSD) values for areas were found below 2.0%. The recoveries obtained (100.83%–101.54%) ensured the accuracy of the developed method. The expanded uncertainty (3.14%) of the method was also estimated from method validation data. Accordingly, the proposed validated and rapid procedure was proved to be suitable for routine analyzing and stability studies of l-carnitine in tablets.

Abstract An RP-HPLC method was validated for the determination of entecavir in tablet dosage form. The HPLC method was carried out on a Gemini C18 column (150 4.6 mm id) maintained at 30C. The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrilewater (95 + 5, v/v)/potassium phosphate buffer (0.01 M, pH 4; 9 + 91, v/v) pumped at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. Photodiode array detection was at 253 nm. The chromatographic separation was obtained with a retention time of 4.18 min, and the method was linear in the range of 0.5200 g/mL (r2 0.9998). The specificity and stability-indicating capability of the method was proven through forced degradation studies, which also showed that there was no interference of the excipients and an increase of the cytotoxicity only by the basic condition. The accuracy was 101.19, with bias lower than 1.81. The LOD and LOQ were 0.39 and 0.5 g/mL, respectively. Method validation demonstrated acceptable results for precision and robustness. The proposed method was applied for the analysis of tablet formulations, to improve QC and assure therapeutic efficacy.

Abstract Background Mitiglinide (MTG) is one of meglitinides group which are used for treatment of type two diabetes mellitus. Objective Mitiglinide (MTG) is a novel oral hypoglycemic drug. The present work adopts two stability-indicating chromatographic methods for determination of MTG after being exposed to forced degradation using 4 M methanolic HCl for 12 h. Methods The first method is HPTLC/densitometry using methanol:chloroform:acetic acid (5:2.5:0.3 by volume) as the eluting system and silica gel 60 GF254 as the stationary phase; the separated bands were then scanned at 220 nm. The second method is HPLC/UV in which acetonitrile:methanol:0.05 M potassium dihydrogen orthophosphate (pH 3.5) (40:25:35 by volume) was used as the mobile phase and a Zorbax SB-C8 (250 × 4.6 mm, 5 µm) column as a stationary phase, at a flow rate of 1 mL/min and UV detection at 220 nm. Results As a result of acid hydrolysis, two degradants were obtained. The first one was benzyl succinic acid to which this study was performed. The second one lacked configuration and was unreadable using UV spectrometry. Linearity was in the range of 8–48 µg/band MTG for HPTLC and 10–80 µg MTG for HPLC. LOD and LOQ values were 1.85 and 5.62 µg/band for the HPTLC method and 2.14 and 6.49 µg/mL for the HPLC method, respectively. The Recovery % was 100.03 ± 1.464 and 99.61 ± 1.44 using the HPTLC and HPLC methods, respectively. The relative standard deviations (RSD, %) for intra- and inter-day assays were 1.111 and 1.430 for the HPTLC method, respectively, and those for the HPLC method were 1.377 and 0.866, respectively. The RSD, %, for robustness testing was 1.162 (saturation time of mobile phase) and 1.592 (change in ratio of methanol content) for the HPTLC method and 1.377 (mobile phase composition), 1.713 (detector wavelength) and 1.770 (mobile phase flow rate) for the HPLC method. Conclusions The adopted methods were successfully applied for the determination of MTG in its pure form, in presence of its acid degradant and in its tablet dosage form. Highlights Statistical comparison between the results obtained from the developed methods and those obtained by the reported HPLC method showed no significance difference.

A sensitive, accurate, and precise liquid chromatographic method has been developed and validated for the determination of Linagliptin (LNG) and Empagliflozin (EMP) in their combined tablets. Chromatographic separation was carried out on ODS-3 Inertsil® C18 column (150×4.6 mm, 5 µm). The mobile phase A (consisting of 0.30% Triethyl amine buffer (TEA) at pH = 4.5, adjusted using ortho-phosphoric acid); the mobile phase B (consisting of acetonitrile) was pumped through the column whose temperature was maintained at 40 °C, with a flow rate 1.7 mL/min, using gradient elution from 0-3 min A:B (75:25, v:v), then from 3-6 min the ratio changed to be A:B (60:40, v:v). Fluorescence detection (FLD) was performed at 410 nm after excitation at 239 nm. Acceptable linearity, accuracy and precision values of the proposed method were found over the concentration ranges of 0.5-15 µg/mL for LNG and 1.0-30 µg/mL for EMP with correlation coefficients of 0.9997 and 0.9998 in the case of LNG and EMP, respectively. The recoveries and relative standard deviations percentages were found in the following ranges: 98.56-101.85 and 0.53-1.52% for LNG and 98.00-101.95 and 0.31-1.05% for EMP. The detection and quantification limits were 0.15 and 0.45 µg/mL for LNG and 0.22 and 0.67 µg/mL for EMP. The optimized method was validated and proved to be specific, robust, accurate and reliable for the determination of the drugs in pure form or in their combined pharmaceutical preparations. No significant difference was found regarding accuracy and precision upon statistical comparison between the obtained results of the proposed method and those of the reported method. Furthermore, the proposed method is proved to be a stability-indicating assay after exposure of the studied drugs to variable forced degradation parameters, such as acidic, alkaline and oxidative conditions, according to the recommendations of the International Conference on Harmonization guidelines. The simplicity and selectivity of the proposed method allows its use in quality control laboratories.
