The aim of this study was to develop and validate HPLC methods for the determination in plasma of two novel thiosemicarbazone anti-tumour drugs developed in our laboratories (Dp44mT and N4mT). The appropriate separations were achieved using a HS F5 HPLC column with the mobile phase composed of a mixture of either acetate buffer/EDTA or EDTA and acetonitrile (62:38 and 50:50, v/v, respectively). The plasma samples were pretreated with SPE (phenyl and C18, respectively). Furthermore, these methods were successfully applied to in vitro plasma stability experiments. The investigation has clearly shown that both thiosemicarbazones are markedly more stable in plasma than their aroylhydrazone forerunners.
