Development Of Quantitative Bioanalytical Methods For The Pharmacological Studies Of Anti-Cancer Drugs, Ye Feng Jan 2013

Development Of Quantitative Bioanalytical Methods For The Pharmacological Studies Of Anti-Cancer Drugs, Ye Feng

ETD Archive

In the anticancer drug discovery and therapy development, it is essential to understand the pharmacological properties of the drugs. Today, pharmaceutical analysis is employed throughout the whole drug discovery and development process. Pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic relationships are playing an increasingly important role in decisions on the rational development and use of new drugs and they can provide a detailed knowledge of the mechanism of the drug and a better understanding of the molecular targets on which they act. Due to the significance of pharmacological analysis, sensitive analytical methods are critically needed for pharmacological studies. Therefore, our long-term goal is to provide guidelines …


Development Of Quantitative Lc-Ms/Ms Methods For The Pharmacological Studies Of Anti-Cancer Drugs, Lan Li Jan 2011

Development Of Quantitative Lc-Ms/Ms Methods For The Pharmacological Studies Of Anti-Cancer Drugs, Lan Li

ETD Archive

In the development of anti-cancer drugs, it is essential to study the pharmacological profiles of the drugs. Among the analytical tools utilized in the pharmacological studies, LC-MS/MS has gained increased popularity due to its unequivocal sensitivity and specificity, as well as the ability of handling a wide variety of compounds with relatively simple sample preparation procedures. In this work, a brief review on the method rational, instrumentations, analytical method validation, and work flow of the method development was included. The processes of LC-MS/MS method development for the pharmacological studies of three anti-cancer drugs (i.e., methoxyamine, fludarabine, and 6-benzylthioinosine) were illustrated. …


Development Of Quantitative Bioanalytical Methods For The Measurement Of Pharmaceutical Compounds Via Hplc-Uv And Hplc-Ms/Ms, Melissa A. Mcculloch Jan 2009

Development Of Quantitative Bioanalytical Methods For The Measurement Of Pharmaceutical Compounds Via Hplc-Uv And Hplc-Ms/Ms, Melissa A. Mcculloch

Research in pharmaceutical treatments for illnesses and disease processes has rapidly grown in the past decade. The field is fueled by advances in our understanding of the molecular mechanics of the human body, coupled with the development of sophisticated scientific instruments which can efficiently generate massive amounts of important data. This has led to an ever-growing need for the development of quantitative bioanalytical methods to measure pharmaceutical compounds. In this work, the theory behind the analytical processes and instruments that make these investigations possible is discussed. Further, the development of two high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) methods with both ultra …
