ABSTRACT
The current work enumerates all developed analytical methods for the estimation of the combination of
Lumacaftor and Ivacaftor in pharmaceutical dosage forms, used for the treatment of cystic fibrosis.
Cystic Fibrosis is a multi-organ disorder caused by dysfunctional CFTR gene mutations. It mostly arises
in the lungs but also impacts some body parts such as the colon, liver, kidneys, and pancreas. The CFTR
protein mutation leads to impaired transport of fluid, Bicarbonate, Na+ & Cl- ions, leading to the
thickening of mucus on the cell membrane and cellular damage. Most researchers have done their work
on Lumacaftor and Ivacaftor regarding Pharmacology, Mode of Action, and Synthesis but in the present
work, we have focused on different types of analytical techniques used to determine the Lumacaftor
and Ivacaftor in pharmaceutical dosage form. We have reviewed various analytical methods, such as
HPLC, RP-HPLC, UP-HPLC, and LC-MS techniques that have been developed for the combination of
Lumacaftor and Ivacaftor. According to the literature, most of the elution was carried out by the Isocratic
method using the mobile phase which includes Acetonitrile, water, and buffer. The HPLC method has
been the most widely used analytical technique for the past decade.
