Extension of impurity profiling on eltrombopag olamine to in-silico predictions: An effort to exploit correlated forced degradation products and known drug-related substances in drug discovery.

The recent pandemic has highlighted the impact of diseases on global health and the economy. The rapid discovery of new hit molecules remains a tough challenge. Pharmaceutical impurity profiling can be linked to drug discovery through the identification of new hits from compounds identified during the analytical profiling.

HPLC-PDA identification and resolution of rufinamide forced degradation impurities: A congregated chemometric expedite optimization coupled with factorials and desirability.

Rufinamide is used presently to treat Lenaux-Gastaut syndrome. A full factorial design and desirability approach was investigated for the optimization of hydrolytic stress via response surface curves (RSCs). The degradation impurities were identified and resolved using reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) on the Qualisil® BDS C column.

Pharmaceutical Analytical Profile for Novel SGL-2 Inhibitor: Dapagliflozin.

Dapagliflozin (DPG) is a novel drug from class of sodium glucose co-transporter 2 (SGL-2) inhibitors which has been evolved as profound treatment option for the type-2diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Considering the severity of the disease the drug is of crucial significance for the therapy and associated research. As a pharmaceutical dosage form DPG has immense importance as an individual drug and with other antidiabetic drugs as combinations.

Pharmaceutical analysis combined with in-silico therapeutic and toxicological profiling on zileuton and its impurities to assist in modern drug discovery.

The obligatory testing of drug molecules and their impurities to protect users against toxic compounds seems to provide interesting opportunities for new drug discovery. Impurities, which proved to be non-toxic, may be explored for their own therapeutic potential and thus be a part of future drug discovery. The essential role of pharmaceutical analysis can thus be extended to achieve this purpose.
