    Os inibidores da dipeptidil peptidase (DPP-4), também comumente chamados de gliptinas, apresentam-se como uma nova classe de substâncias ativas para o tratamento do diabetes melittus tipo 2. O fosfato de sitagliptina (STG) é o primeiro fármaco desta classe terapêutica que age inibindo a DPP-4, uma enzima que exerce importante papel no controle da glicemia. A literatura pesquisada apresenta poucos estudos sobre a determinação quantitativa e estudos de estabilidade deste fármaco na forma farmacêutica comprimido revestido. Desse modo, o objetivo deste trabalho foi desenvolver e validar métodos analíticos para a determinação da sitagliptina em comprimidos revestidos, assim como, realizar o estudo de estabilidade. Análises por calorimetria exploratória de varredura (DSC), determinação da faixa de fusão e espectrofotometria na região do infravermelho, espectrometria de massas e ressonância magnética nuclear foram realizadas a fim de caracterizar a substância química utilizada como referência neste estudo. Métodos por cromatografia em camada delgada, espectrofotometria na região do UV, cromatografia líquida de alta eficiência (CLAE) e eletroforese capilar (EC) foram utilizados para a análise qualitativa do fármaco. A determinação quantitativa da STG foi realizada por CLAE e EC, métodos que foram validados de acordo com os códigos oficiais vigentes. O ensaio de dissolução foi desenvolvido e validado empregando tampão fosfato pH 6,8 e pás a 50 rpm. Nesta etapa do estudo, buscou-se condições de ensaio que favorecessem uma possível correlação com os dados in-vivo. Além disso, o trabalho apresenta o estudo da estabilidade da STG com isolamento e identificação de dois produtos de degradação majoritários formados em condições ácidas. A identificação dos produtos de degradação majoritários foi realizada por cromatografia líquida de ultra - performance (UPLC) acoplado à espectrometria de massas (EM).Dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP-4), also commonly called gliptins, presents as a new class of active substances for the treatment of diabetes mellitus type 2. The sitagliptin phosphate (STG) is the first drug in this therapeutic class that acts by inhibiting DPP-4, an enzyme that plays an important role in controlling blood glucose. The literature shows few studies on quantitative determination and stability studies of the drug in dosage form coated tablet. Thus, the objective of this study was to develop and validate analytical methods for the determination of sitagliptin in tablets, as well as, perform the stability study. Analysis by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), determination of the melting range, infrared spectroscopy (IV), mass spectrometry (MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (RMN), were carried out to characterize the chemical used as the reference in this study. Methods by thin layer chromatography, UV spectrophotometry, high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and capillary electrophoresis (CE) were used for the qualitative analysis of the drug. Quantitative determination of the STG was performed by HPLC and CE methods that have been validated according to the current official codes. The dissolution test was developed and validated using pH 6.8 phosphate buffer and paddle at 50 rpm. At this stage of the study, was sought test conditions that favored a possible correlation with in vivo data. Furthermore, the study shows the stability of STG with isolation and identification of two degradation products majority formed in acidic conditions. Identification of degradation products was performed by a majority of ultra - performance liquid chromatography performance (UPLC) coupled with mass spectrometry (MS)

    Sitagliptin phosphate (STG), used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, is a drug that belongs to a new class called inhibitors of dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPPIV). It is known to be the first agent of the class approved by the FDA. Currently, many studies describe the determination of STG in plasma and pharmaceutical formulations but there are few studies on the drug stability. Forced degradation studies were conducted to isolate and identify the main degradation products. It was possible to observe the formation of two degradation products (DP1 and DP2) in hydrochloric 2.5M acid at 60°C. The structural characterization by UPLC-UV/MS of the degradation products was important to understand the degradation mechanism of STG under acid conditions. Purified degradation products were tested in vitro for cytotoxicity with a mononuclear cell assay. No cytotoxicity was observed at the concentration range of 10.0–250.0 µg.mL-1. The structural characterization of the degradation products was important to understand the degradation mechanism of STG under acid conditions. Today, there are some resolutions and consensus, national and international, which show the importance of knowing and identifying the degradation products and also to evaluate the cytotoxic potential of these molecules
