Objective: The present investigation demonstrates a simple, sensitive and accurate high pressure liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for the determination of alvimopan (AMP) in rat plasma.
Methods: The chromatographic separation was achieved within 10 min by using acetonitrile: potassium dihydrogen phosphate buffer pH 3.0 adjusted with orthophosphoric acid (50:50) as mobile phase on Altima Grace Smart C-18 column (5μ; 250 × 4.6 mm) at a flow rate of 1.0 ml/min with injection volume 50 µl. The drug was extracted from plasma by liquid-liquid extraction using a mixture of methanol: acetonitrile (50:50) as a solvent. The retention times of drug and internal standard were found to be 5.17 and 6.74 min, respectively. This method was validated as per the United States Food and Drug Administration (US-FDA) guidelines.
Results: The results of the validation parameters were found to be within the acceptance limits. The method was linear in the concentration range from 5-1000 ng/ml (r2= 0.9998), and the extraction recovery was found to be 78.71±3.86% for AMP. The lower limit of quantification was found to be 5ng/ml, and the stability of recovered samples at different conditions was found to be more than 95%.
Conclusion: The developed method possess good selectivity, specificity, there was no interference found in the plasma blanks at retention times of AMP and Internal Standard (IS). We found a good correlation between the peak area and concentration of the drug under prescribed conditions. Furthermore, the method can also be used to estimate the pharmacokinetic parameters of AMP.
