Standardized Chromatographic and Computational Approaches for Lipophilicity Analysis of Five Gliflozin Antidiabetic Drugs in Relation to Their Biological Activity.

This study represents the first-time experimental analysis of lipophilicity for antidiabetic drugs from the gliflozin class using chromatographic methods alongside computational approaches. The lipophilicity of five gliflozins (canagliflozin (CANA), dapagliflozin (DAPA), empagliflozin (EMPA), ertugliflozin (ERTU), and sotagliflozin (SOTA)) was assessed using R and log k parameters with RP8, RP18, and CN coatings, while methanol and acetonitrile were used as organic modifiers. To enhance the reliability, six reference substances with established lipophilicity values (0.

Metabolism and Chemical Degradation of New Antidiabetic Drugs: A Review of Analytical Approaches for Analysis of Glutides and Gliflozins.

The drug metabolism and drug degradation pathways may overlap, resulting in the formation of similar constituents. Therefore, the metabolism data can be helpful for deriving safe levels of degradation impurities and improving the quality of respective pharmaceutical products. The present article contains considerations on possible links between metabolic and degradation pathways for new antidiabetic drugs such as glutides, gliflozins, and gliptins.

Metabolism and Chemical Degradation of New Antidiabetic Drugs (Part II): A Review of Analytical Approaches for Analysis of Gliptins.

This paper is part II of the review on metabolism and chemical degradation of new antidiabetic drugs from glutides, gliflozins and gliptins. It is well known that metabolism data can be helpful for deriving safe levels of degradation impurities and their qualifying as far as toxicological aspects are concerned. As a result, it could link the quality of respective pharmaceutical products to clinical practice and patients.

DSC, FT-IR and NIR with Chemometric Assessment Using PCA and HCA for Estimation of the Chemical Stability of Oral Antidiabetic Drug Linagliptin in the Presence of Pharmaceutical Excipients.

Pharmaceutical excipients should not interact with active substances, however, in practice, they sometimes do it, affecting the efficacy, stability and safety of drugs. Thus, interactions between active substances and excipients are not desirable. For this reason, two component mixtures of oral antidiabetic drug linagliptin (LINA) with four excipients of different reactivity, i.

Comprehensive Insight into Chemical Stability of Important Antidiabetic Drug Vildagliptin Using Chromatography (LC-UV and UHPLC-DAD-MS) and Spectroscopy (Mid-IR and NIR with PCA).

During forced degradation, the intrinsic stability of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) could be determined and possible impurities that would occur during the shelf life of the drug substance or the drug product could be estimated. Vildagliptin belongs to relatively new oral antidiabetic drugs named gliptins, inhibiting dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) and prolonging the activities of the endogenous incretin hormones. At the same time, some gliptins were shown as prone to degradation under specific pH and temperature conditions, as well as in the presence of some reactive excipients.

The newly synthesized thiazole derivatives as potential antifungal compounds against Candida albicans.

Recently, the occurrence of candidiasis has increased dramatically, especially in immunocompromised patients. Additionally, their treatment is often ineffective due to the resistance of yeasts to antimycotics. Therefore, there is a need to search for new antifungals.

New benzenesulphonohydrazide derivatives as potential antitumour agents.

Cancer treatment remains a serious challenge worldwide. Thus, finding novel antitumour agents is of great importance. In the present study, nine new benzenesulphonohydrazide derivatives (1-9) were synthesized, and the chemical structures of the obtained compounds were confirmed by spectral analysis methods, including IR, H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and C NMR.

Synthesis and in vitro bioactivity study of new hydrazide-hydrazones of 5-bromo-2-iodobenzoic acid.

In this study 14 novel hydrazide-hydrazones of 5-bromo-2-iodobenzoic acid (3-16) were synthesized on the basis of condensation reaction. The chemical structure of obtained derivatives was established on the basis of spectral data (H NMR and C NMR) and the lipophilicity of synthesized molecules was determined with the use of RP-HPTLC chromatography. Synthesized hydrazide-hydrazones (3-16) were subjected to in vitro cytotoxicity assay and antimicrobial activity analysis against a panel of bacteria and fungi.

Photodegradation of the H Antihistaminic Topical Drugs Emedastine, Epinastine, and Ketotifen and ROS Tests for Estimations of Their Potent Phototoxicity.

In this study, important H antihistaminic drugs, i.e., emedastine (EME), epinastine (EPI), and ketotifen (KET), were irradiated with UV/Vis light (300-800 nm) in solutions of different pH values.

Determination of Chemical Stability of Two Oral Antidiabetics, Metformin and Repaglinide in the Solid State and Solutions Using LC-UV, LC-MS, and FT-IR Methods.

Firstly, metformin and repaglinide were degraded under high temperature/humidity, UV/VIS light, in different pH and oxidative conditions. Secondly, a new validated LC-UV method was examined, as to whether it validly determined these drugs in the presence of their degradation products and whether it is suitable for estimating degradation kinetics. Finally, the respective LC-MS method was used to identify the degradation products.

Comparative Study of Chemical Stability of Two H Antihistaminic Drugs, Terfenadine and Its Metabolite Fexofenadine, Using LC-UV Methods.

A comparative study of chemical stability of terfenadine (TER) and its metabolite fexofenadine (FEX) was performed. Both TER and FEX were subjected to high temperature at different pH and UV/VIS light at different pH and then quantitatively analyzed using new validated LC-UV methods. These methods were used to monitor the degradation processes and to determine the kinetics of degradation for both the compounds.
