• Mainly by trial and error • Varying one-factor-at-a-time (OFAT) • Problems: - additional or missing peaks
- changes in selectivity - decreasing resolution of the critical peak pair
• Trying to test “quality“ into the method – this is however the wrong way • Results: - time consuming approach
- no understanding of the influence of key factors

Example for adapting an „old“ method
• Official HPLC method for ebastine published in E.P. • Run time (unbelievable) 160 min • Peak width for ebastine (API) = 8 min • Retention factors k* = 0.25 – 70 (recommended 2 – 20)

• Using experimental design plans as an efficient and fast tool for method development.
• In a full or fractional factorial design a couple of experiments are carried out in which one or more factors are changed at the same time.
• Typical examples are Plackett-Burman design • Software packages (e.g. Fusion AE, DesignExpert)
Systematic LC method development I.) statistical software tools
![Page 17: Quality-by-Design in Method Development · 2017-11-29 · „Our“ method development strategy by using a Quality-by-Design approach Quality-by-Design Key components defined by ICHQ8](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042311/5ed9e0beb05ccf49d22352e8/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• A very smart and computer-assisted way of developing a chromatographic method is by using software modeling packages (e.g. DryLab, ChromSword, ACD/LC simulator).

• Adequate baseline separation of all components (Rs > 2.0) • Minimum analysis time (< 10 min). • k*-values for ebastine and impurities should be between 2 and 10 • Impurities: 0.05% lvl • Visualize a design space, in which the method is robust

Step 5: Control strategy
• Based on the validation data and the robustness of the method, the risk assessment indicates that there is extensive knowledge gained about the performance of the method, so that a suitable system suitability test may be the only control element needed in the method control strategy.
• Therefore, the resolution of the critical peak pair impurity C and D, which
shows the lowest resolution of all impurity peaks was chosen as a system suitability test parameter and should be not less than 2.0.

Conclusion
All previous defined method goals were met:
Baseline separation of the components of interest (Rs >>2.0) k*-values for ebastine and impurities are between 2.2 and 4.3 The design space – an area in which the method is robust – is
defined and visualized Analysis time is only 4 min, which is a impressive 40-fold
increase in productivity in comparison to the method published in the E.P. monograph and allowed purity testing of more than 360 samples per day.
