Determination of HP 749, a potential therapeutic agent for Alzheimer's disease, in plasma by high-performance liquid chromatography.

N-(n-Propyl)-N-(4-pyridinyl)-1H-indol-1-amine hydrochloride (HP 749, I), a non-receptor-dependent cholinomimetic agent with noradrenergic activity, is a potential agent for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. Pharmacokinetic studies in animals and humans showed that I was well absorbed and metabolized primarily to the N-despropyl metabolite (P7480, II) after oral administration. To facilitate the kinetic studies, a sensitive and selective high-performance chromatographic assay was developed. I and II are extracted from plasma by a mixture of cyclohexane-ethyl acetate and chromatographed on an isocratic reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic system employing an analytical phenyl column with acetonitrile-ammonium formate as mobile phase. The concentrations of these two compounds, quantitated by internal standardization, are monitored by ultraviolet detection. The method is linear in the plasma assay over a concentration range of 0.5-500 ng/ml for both compounds with a quantitation limit of 0.5 ng/ml. The precision and accuracy of the calibration curves and/or method are less than 10%. The recovery of I and II from plasma is 63-74 and 63-68%, respectively, over a concentration range of 0.5-500 ng/ml.[1]
