A Lc-MS/MS Method for the Quantification of Deflazacort Metabolite in Human Plasma: Development, Validation and Application to a Pharmacokinetic Study

Abstract: Deflazacort is a methyl-oxazoline derivative of prednisolone used for its anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects. It is an inactive prodrug which is converted rapidly to its active metabolite 21-desacetyl deflazacort. A simple, rapid, sensitive and specific liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method was developed for the estimation of 21-desacetyl deflazacort in human plasma. Sample preparation involved simple solid phase extraction of 21-desacetyl deflazacort and internal standard. The sam… Show more

“…Sharma et al and More et al also investigated the stability of deflazacort in dosage form by HPLC method; however, the analysis was restricted to hydrolysis, photolysis and chemical oxidation [ 26 - 27 ] . Recently, Karthikeyan et al have reported a LC-MS method for estimation of deflazacort products in human plasma [ 28 ] . Patel et al reported an ultra-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometric method for the determination of 21-hydroxy deflazacort in human plasma using betamethasone as the internal standard [ 29 ] .…”

“…The mean terminal half-life (t ½ ) is around 60-80 h. MEM and its metabolites are primarily eliminated through urine (75-90%) and the remaining recovered through bile and feces. 4,5 Majority of the LC-MS/MS methods have been reported for estimation of MEM in clinical studies [6][7][8][9][10][11][12] and one method to support preclinical study. Among these methods the lowest reported lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) was 0.05 ng/ml using 100 µl plasma.…”
