Paxalisib is a pan-PI3K and mTOR inhibitor, currently entering into Phase II clinical trials as a potential drug to treat glioblastoma patients. We report the development and validation of a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for the quantitation of paxalisib in mouse plasma as per the US Food and Drug Administration regulatory guidelines. From the mouse plasma, paxalisib and the internal standard (IS; filgotinib) were extracted using ethyl acetate as an extraction solvent.

In this study, we report the development and validation of an LC-tandem mass spectrometry method for the simultaneous quantitation of bendamustine and copanlisib in mouse plasma as per the US FDA regulatory guidelines. The sample processing involves extraction of bendamustine and copanlisib along with internal standard (IS; warfarin) from 50 μL mouse plasma using a liquid-liquid extraction method. The chromatographic separation of bendamustine, copanlisib and the IS was achieved on an Atlantis dC column using an isocratic mobile phase (5 mM ammonium acetate:methanol, 20:80 v/v).

Lumefantrine (LFN) is a chiral antimalarial drug. Enantioselective attributes and absolute oral pharmacokinetics for (-)-LFN and (+)-LFN have been characterized in mice. No stereoselectivity was seen with either of the enantiomers when compared with -LFN in the executed studies (solubility, metabolic stability, protein binding, permeability and blood partitioning).

Different options on performing incurred sample reanalysis (ISR) on dried blood spot (DBS) cards were investigated using drugs belonging to various therapeutic areas: (a) darolutamide (to treat prostate cancer) and (b) filgotinib (to treat rheumatoid arthritis). The proposed novel methodology included the generation of half-DBS and quarter-DBS discs after initial blood collection using the full-DBS discs. Accordingly, blood collection via DBS was performed in male BALB/c mice following intravenous and oral dosing of darolutamide; in male Sprague Dawley rats following intravenous and oral dosing of filgotinib.

Background: Darolutamide is recently approved for the treatment of non-metastatic castrate resistance prostate cancer. Hitherto, no stereoselective pharmacokinetic data have been published pertaining to darolutamide and its diastereomers in animals or humans. The key aims of the experiment were to examine darolutamide, S,S-darolutamide and S,R-darolutamide with respect to (a) assessment of in vitro metabolic stability and protein binding and (b) characterization of in vivo oral and intravenous pharmacokinetics in mice.

We developed and validated a simple, sensitive, selective, and reliable LC-MS/MS-ESI method for the direct quantitation of lumefantrine (LFN) enantiomers [(-)-LFN and (+)-LFN] in mice plasma as per regulatory guideline. LFN enantiomers and carbamazepine (internal standard) were extracted from mice plasma using Strata X SPE (solid-phase extraction) cartridges. Good resolution between enantiomers was achieved on a Chiralpak IA-3 column using an isocratic mobile phase (0.

The objective of the current research was to prepare self-micro-emulsifying drug delivery systems (SMEDDS) for BCS class II drug, nilotinib to enhance its oral bioavailability. Different types of excipients like oil, surfactant, and co-surfactant were evaluated for drug solubility. Among the screened excipients, Capryol 90, Transcutol HP, and Tween 80 were selected as oil, co-surfactant, and surfactant, respectively, to construct a ternary phase diagram to identify a homogenous mixture.
