Abstract

Employing the Quality by Design paradigm through this work helped conclude the method operable design region for optimizing the high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) assay using Design of Experiments and response surface methodology to obtain a good resolution and determination of all analysed compounds and to achieve a suitable analysis time. A deep understanding of the quality target product profile, analytical target profile and risk assessment for parameters that affect the method performance led to developing an accurate, precise and cost-effective method. Quality risk management principles were applied for determining the critical method parameters affecting the simultaneous determination of metformin hydrochloride (MET), linagliptin (LIN) and empagliflozin (EMP) by reversed-phase HPLC . The ternary mixture was successfully resolved in 5 min with a linearity range of (0.1–600) µg ml−1 for MET and (0.05–50) µg ml−1 for LIN and EMP. The newly developed method was validated according to the International Council for Harmonization of Technical Requirements for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use guidelines. Good agreement was observed with the assay results of the reported UPLC one. To evaluate the greenness of the proposed method, an analytical Eco-Scale method was used.
