Quantitative determination of MAC and its associated impurities in tablet dosage form has not been previously reported. This study quantified impurities present in Macitentan tablets using a binary solvent-based gradient elution method using reversed phase-high performance liquid chromatography.The developed method w as validated per International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines and the drug product w as subjected to forced degradation studies to evaluate stability. The developed method efficiently separated the drug and impurities (48 min) w ithout interference from solvents,excipients,or other impurities. The developed method met all guidelines in all characteristics w ith recoveries ranging from 85%-115%,linearity w ith r 2≥0. 996 6,and substantial robustness. The stability-indicating nature of the method w as evaluated using stressed conditions (hydrolysis:1 N HCl at 80℃/15 min; 1 N NaOH at 25℃/45 min; humidity stress (90%relative humidity) at 25℃for 24 h,oxidation:at 6%(v/v) H2O2,80℃/15 min,thermolysis:at105℃/16 h and photolysis:UV light at 200 Wh/m2; Fluorescent light at 1. 2 million luxh). Forced degradation experiments show ed that the developed method w as effective for impurity profiling. All stressed samples w ere assayed and mass balance w as> 96%. Forced degradation results indicated that MAC tablets w ere sensitive to hydrolysis (acid and alkali) and thermal conditions. The developed method is suitable for both assay and impurity determination,w hich is applicable to the pharmaceutical industry.展开更多
