Abstract: | C1311 (5-[[2-(diethylamino)ethyl]amino]-8-hydroxyimidazo [4,5,1-de]-acridin-6-one-dihydrochloride trihydrate) is the lead compound from the group of imidazoacridinones, a novel group of rationally designed anticancer agents. The pharmaceutical development of C1311 necessitated the availability of an assay for the quantification and purity determination of C1311 active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) and its pharmaceutical dosage form. A reversed-phase liquid chromatographic method (RP-LC) with ultraviolet (UV) detection was developed, consisting of separation on a C18 column with phosphate buffer (60 mM; pH 3 with 1 M citric acid)-acetonitrile-triethylamine (83:17:0.05, v/v/v) as the mobile phase and UV-detection at 280 nm. The method was found to be linear over a concentration range of 2.50-100 microg/mL, precise and accurate. Accelerated stress testing showed degradation products, which were well separated from the parent compound, confirming its stability-indicating capacity. Moreover, the use of LC-MS and on-line photo diode array detection enabled us to propose structures for four degradation products. Two of these products were also found as impurities in the API and more abundantly in an impure lot of API. |
