A method is described for the determination of celecoxib in human plasma. Samples were extracted using 3M Empore membrane extraction cartridges and separated under normal-phase HPLC conditions using a Nucleosil-NO2 (150x4.6 mm, 5 microm) column. Detection was accomplished using UV absorbance at 260 nm. The HPLC method included a column switching procedure, in which late eluting compounds were diverted to waste, to reduce run-time to 12 min. The assay was linear in the concentration range of 25-2000 ng/ml when 1-ml aliquots of plasma were extracted. Recoveries of celecoxib were greater than 91% over the calibration curve range. Intraday precision and accuracy for this assay were 5.7% C.V. or better and within 2.3% of nominal, respectively. The assay was used to analyze samples collected during human clinical studies.

D000894	Anti-Inflammatory Agents, Non-Steroidal	Anti-inflammatory agents that are non-steroidal in nature. In addition to anti-inflammatory actions, they have analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions. They act by blocking the synthesis of prostaglandins by inhibiting cyclooxygenase, which converts arachidonic acid to cyclic endoperoxides, precursors of prostaglandins. Inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis accounts for their analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions; other mechanisms may contribute to their anti-inflammatory effects.
