Objective: Development of a technology for the production of a stable injectable dosage form (IDF) of indolocarbazole derivative LHS-1269. Methods: LHS-1269 is an active pharmaceutical ingredient that was synthesized in the N. N. Blokhin National Medical Research Center of Oncology of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation. The IDF includes dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), 95% ethanol, Kollidon® 17PF and water for injection. Magnetic stirrer and overhead stirrer with a propeller stirring element were used to prepare the model solution of the IDF of LHS-1269. Sterilizing filtration of the solution was performed with 0.2−0.22 um polycarbonate, cellulose, polyvinylidene fluoride, polyethersulfone and nylon membrane filters. The aqueous solution of LHS-1269 was lyophilized in Edwards Minifast DO.2 freeze dryer. Assay of LHS-1269 was performed by spectrophotometry at 320±3 nm. Potentiometry was used to measure pH, a viscosimetry method was used to measure the viscosity of the solutions. The average weight was estimated by weighing a sample of 10 vials with the concentrate. Results: 0.5% aqueous solution of LHS-1269 was produced by mixing the solution of the active substance in DMSO and ethanol with an aqueous solution of polyvinylpyrrolidone gradually at the ratio of LHS-1269/DMSO/ethanol/Kollidon® of 1/11/32/40 by weight. The aqueous solution of the study substance cannot be lyophilized, so a sequence of technological operations was presented to produce an anhydrous concentrate “LHS-1269, concentrate for solution for injection and infusion 25 mg”. Conclusion: A technology was developed to produce a stable IDF of a hydrophobic indolocarbazole derivative LHS-1269, a high-potential antitumor drug.

Objective: The objective was to develop and validate the stability indicating reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography method for the quantification of potential degradation products of regadenoson (REGA) from its injectable dosage form.Methods: YMC-PAK ODS AQ, 150 mm × 4.6 mm, 3 μm composed with hydrophobic high carbon loading and a relatively hydrophilic surface chemically bonded to porous silica particles column was used with the temperature maintained at 40°C. Mobile phase A composed of 0.1% triethylamine buffer having pH 4.5 while mobile phase B is 100 % acetonitrile was used for gradient elution with 1.5 ml/min as a flow rate. The wavelength used for quantification was 245 nm and 20 μl as an injection volume. The suitability of the method has been checked and validated according to the International Council for Harmonization (ICH) guidelines for different parameters, namely, specificity, linearity, accuracy, precision, limit of quantification (LOQ), Limit of detection (LOQ), and robustness studies.Results: The resolution between REGA and its two-degradation product is >8.0 for all pairs of components. The high correlation coefficient (r2>0.990) values are for drug and all potential degradation products from LOQ to 150% of specification limits for impurities calculated based on the maximum daily dose of REGA. LOQ for the drug as well as each degradation product is <0.02% w/w. The % relative standard deviation (RSD) for precision and intermediate precision is in the range of 0.17–0.89, and % RSD for precision at LOQ is 0.86–2.35. The % RSD for robustness study is maximum 2.59.Conclusion: The developed method can quantify the specified and unknown degradation products from 0.1% in the injectable dosage form which indicates that method is sensitive. Method fulfills the ICH criteria for its different validation parameters and demonstrates that the developed analytical method is highly specific, precise, and robust and would have a great value when applied in quality control and stability studies for REGA injection.

Objective: Development of a lyophilized injectable dosage form LCS-1208, an original antitumor drug based on an indolocarbazole derivative. Methods: The prepared solution of the injectable dosage form LCS-1208 is transferred to sterilizing filtration, which is carried out under vacuum on a «Stericup» filter unit with a filter pore size of 0.22 μm. The sterile solution of the injectable dosage form LCS-1208 is poured into sterile vials using a dispenser and lyophilized in a freeze-drying chamber. At the end of drying, the preparation is corked in the chamber of a sublimation unit using a hydraulic device and transferred to crimping with aluminum caps using a seaming machine. Quantitative determination of the drug content was determined by spectrophotometry using a standard sample at λ = 320±2 nm. The pH was determined by potentiometry. Results: A freeze-drying regimen for the injectable dosage form LCS-1208 has been developed. The required solution freezing temperature was established taking into account the presence of 2 eutectic zones: a solution of LCS-1208 in DMSO (-35 ÷-32) °С, an aqueous solution of Kollidon 17PF (-10 ÷-8) °С. As a result of a series of experiments, the optimal lyophilization regime was chosen that does not require preliminary freezing in a low-temperature chamber, with freezing on the shelves of freeze-drying at a temperature of-47 °C without their preliminary cooling. The most acceptable vial filling volume was determined, amounting to 3 ml, and the rate of temperature rise during secondary drying of the preparation was justified. When using the developed regime of lyophilization of the LCS-1208 solution, it was shown that it can be sublimated while preserving the initial qualitative and quantitative characteristics. Conclusion: In this article, using the example of creating a lyophilized injectable dosage form LCS-1208 (the original antitumor drug from the indolocarbazole group), the main problems that arose during the lyophilization of the selected composition of the model solution, as well as ways to improve the process.

The results of the study on post-traumatic stress rates and individual indicators arising in response to the diagnosis of a life-threatening disease are being analyzed. The participants of the study are the patients of Burdenko National Medical Research Center of Neurosurgery, Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation (n = 25) diagnosed with meningioma. It has been shown that one of the psychological consequences of the diagnosis of “meningioma” is post-traumatic stress of different intensity rates. Increased depression, shyness and emotional lability are associated with high post-traumatic stress rates. The comparison of the triad of emotional-personal characteristics, social support indicators (according to the Psychological Safety Questionnaire) and basic assumptions (according to the World Assumptions Scale) made it possible to verify the research hypothesis. It has been revealed that high rates on depression and shyness scales (according to the Freiburg Personality Inventory) do not reflect the tendency to avoid social contact, but indirectly indicate the presence of auto-aggression or introverted orientation directed to oneself in people diagnosed with this disease.
