A new rapid method using vapor-phase osmometry accurately predicts drug solubility in water. This resource-sparing assay requires minimal sample volume and time, making it ideal for early drug development.

Area of Science:

  • Pharmaceutical Science
  • Analytical Chemistry

Background:

  • Accurate assessment of drug solubility is crucial for pharmaceutical development.
  • Existing methods for solubility determination can be time-consuming and resource-intensive.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and validate a rapid, resource-sparing method for determining the aqueous solubility of nonvolatile pharmaceutical solids.
  • To assess the utility of vapor-phase osmometry for drug solubility measurement.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized vapor-phase osmometry to measure the osmolality of saturated drug solutions.
  • Employed a rapid ultrasound-mediated dissolution protocol for preparing saturated solutions.
  • Measured drug concentration via osmolality, requiring less than 10 µl of solution and under 2 minutes per measurement.

Main Results:

  • Osmolality measurements by vapor-phase osmometry strongly correlate with drug solubility in water.
  • The method demonstrated high accuracy and speed for solubility determination.
  • The technique is suitable for small-molecule drugs with solubilities exceeding 10 g/kg.

Conclusions:

  • Vapor-phase osmometry offers a rapid and accurate approach for assessing the aqueous solubility of pharmaceutical solids.
  • This method can significantly reduce resources required in early drug candidate screening.
  • The technique shows promise for high-throughput solubility analysis in drug discovery.
