This study involved the optimization of experimental conditions for the forced degradation of atorvastatin employing the experimental design (DoE) approach, as a scientific multifactorial strategy. Using 2n full factorial design, stress conditions of oxidative, hydrolytic and thermal degradation were optimized to obtain a targeted level of atorvastatin degradation. Atorvastatin and all related and degradation products were separated on Poroshell 120 EC C18 50 ´ 3.0 mm 2.7 μm, using 10 mM ammonium formate and acetonitrile as mobile phases in the gradient mode. The impurity structures were confirmed by the direct hyphenation of a liquid chromatograph to an ion trap mass spectrometer with a heated electrospray ionization interface.This study highlights the multifold benefits of implementing the DoE concept, which provides a better understanding of the significant factors responsible for degradation and ensures a successful way to achieve degradation, thereby replacing the trial and error approach used in conventional forced degradation studies.

Experimental Design Methodology

This manuscript describes comprehensive approach for assessment of degradation behavior of simvastatin employing experimental design methodology as scientific multifactorial strategy. Experimental design methodology was used for sample preparation and UHPLC method development and optimization. Simvastatin was subjected to stress conditions of oxidative, acid, base, hydrolytic, thermal, and photolytic degradation. Using2nfull factorial design degradation conditions were optimized to obtain targeted level of degradation. Screening for optimal chromatographic condition was made by Plackett–Burman design and optimization chromatographic experiments were conducted according to Box-Behnken design. Successful separation of simvastatin from the impurities and degradation products was achieved on Poroshell 120 EC C18 50 × 3.0 mm 2.7μm, using solutions of 20 mM ammonium formate pH 4.0 and acetonitrile as the mobile phase in gradient mode. The proposed method was validated according to International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines. Validation results have shown that the proposed method is selective, linear, sensitive, accurate, and robust and it is suitable for quantitative determination of simvastatin and its impurities. Afterwards, the degradation products were confirmed by a direct hyphenation of liquid chromatograph to ion-trap mass spectrometer with heated electrospray ionization interface. This study highlights the multiple benefits of implementing experimental design, which provides a better understanding of significant factors responsible for degradation and ensures successful way to achieve degradation and can replace the trial and error approach used in conventional forced degradation studies.

Forced Degradation Studies

Forced degradation study is the degradation of new drug substances and drug products in more severe conditions than accelerated conditions. Forced degradation study were conducted to demonstrate the specificity of stability-indicating methods, providing insight into degradation pathways and drug degradation products, assisting in the elucidation of degradation product structures, identifying degradation products that could be spontaneously generated during storage and use of drugs and to facilitate improvement in manufacturing process and formulation corresponding with accelerated stability studies. Statins, a class of lipid-lowering medications, are the most widely prescribed drugs and an example of an unstable drug. Statins are susceptible to hydrolysis in the presence of high temperatures and humidity. Therefore, the review discusses various studies of forced degradation studies in six statins drug (atorvastatin, fluvastatin, pitavastatin, pravastatin, rosuvastatin, and simvastatin) to describe the drug's intrinsic stability thus it can assist the selection of formulations and packaging as well as proper storage conditions.

Background: Regadenoson is an A2A adenosine receptor agonist that is a coronary vasodilator and commonly used as a pharmacologic cardiac stressing agents. Methods: HPLC method was used for the analysis of related substances. The degraded impurities during the process were isolated and characterized by IR, Mass and NMR spectral analysis. Results: Forced degradation study of regadenoson under conditions of hydrolysis (neutral, acidic and alkaline) and oxidations suggested in the ICH Q1A(R2) was accomplished. The drug showed significant degradation under all the above conditions. On the whole, five novel degradation products were found under diverse conditions along with process related impurities which were not reported earlier. Conclusion: All the degradation products were well characterized by using advanced spectroscopic techniques like IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and Mass spectra. The identification of these impurities will be productive for the quality control during the production and stability behavior of the regadenoson drug substance.

A simple, specific, accurate and precise reverse phase high pressure liquid chromatographic method has been developed for the simultaneous determination of Paracetamol and Lornoxicam from tablets and to characterize degradation products of Lornoxicam by reverse phase C18 column (Inertsil ODS 3V C-18, 250 x 4.6 mm, 5 ?). The sample was analyzed using Buffer (0.02504 Molar): Methanol in the ratio of 45:55, as a mobile phase at a flow rate of 1.5 mL/min and detection at 290 nm. The retention time for Paracetamol and Lornoxicam was found to be 2.45 and 9.40 min respectively. The method can be used for estimation of combination of these drugs in tablets. The method was validated as per ICH guidelines. The linearity of developed method was achieved in the range of 249.09 - 747.29 ?g/mL (r2=0.9999) for Paracetamol and 4.0125 - 12.0375 ?g/mL (r2=0.9999) for Lornoxicam. Recoveries from tablets were between 98 and 102%. The method was validated with respect to linearity, accuracy, precision, robustness and forced degradation studies which further proved the stability-indicating power. During the forced degradation studies lornoxicam was observed to be labile to alkaline hydrolytic stress and oxidative stress (in the solution form). However, it was stable to the acid hydrolytic, photolytic and thermal stress (in both solid and solution form). The degraded products formed were investigated by electrospray ionization (ESI) time-of-flight mass spectrometry, NMR and IR spectroscopy. A possible degradation pathway was outlined based on the results. The method was found to be sensitive with a detection limit of 0.193 ?g/ml, 2.768 ?g/ml and a quantitation limit of 0.638 ?g/ml, 9.137 ?g/ml for lornoxicam and paracetamol, respectively. Due to these attributes, the proposed method could be used for routine quality control analysis of these drugs in combined dosage forms.

Chlorthalidone was subjected to various forced degradation conditions. Substantial degradation of chlorthalidone was obtained in acid, alkali, and oxidative conditions. Further full factorial experimental design was applied for acid and alkali forced degradation conditions, in which strength of acid/alkali, temperature, and time of heating were considered as independent variables (factors) and % degradation was considered as dependent variable (response). Factors responsible for acid and alkali degradation were statistically evaluated using Yates analysis and Pareto chart. Furthermore, using surface response curve, optimized 10% degradation was obtained. All chromatographic separation was carried out on Phenomenex HyperClone C 18 column (250 × 4.6 mm, 5 μ), using mobile phase comprising methanol : acetonitrile : phosphate buffer (20 mM) (pH 3.0 adjusted witho-phosphoric acid): 30 : 10 : 60% v/v. The flow rate was kept constant at 1 mL/min and eluent was detected at 241 nm. In calibration curve experiments, linearity was found to be in the range of 2–12 μg/mL. Validation experiments proved good accuracy and precision of the method. Also there was no interference of excipients and degradation products at the retention time of chlorthalidone, indicating specificity of the method.

Abstract A forced degradation study was successfully applied for the development of a stability-indicating assay method for determination of rosuvastatin Ca in the presence of its degradation products. The method was developed and optimized by analyzing the forcefully degraded samples. Degradation of the drug was done at various pH values. Moreover, the drug was degraded under oxidative, photolytic, and thermal stress conditions. Mass balance between assay values of degraded samples and generated impurities was found to be satisfactory. The proposed method was able to resolve all of the possible degradation products formed during the stress study. The developed method was successfully applied for an accelerated stability study of the tablet formulation. The major impurities generated during the accelerated stability study of the tablet formulation were matches with those of the forced degradation study. The developed method was validated for determination of rosuvastatin Ca, and the method was found to be equally applicable to study the impurities formed during routine and forced degradation of rosuvastatin Ca.
