RESUMEN
Ponatinib is a prescription medication used to treat a rare form of blood cancer called Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ ALL) and chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) that is resistant to other treatments. It belongs to a class of drugs called tyrosine kinase inhibitors, which work by blocking abnormal proteins that promote the growth of cancer cells. In this chapter, the synthesis methods and physicochemical properties of ponatinib were reviewed, besides the characterization of the ponatinib structure using different techniques such as elemental analysis, IR, UV, (1H and 13C) NMR, MS, and XRD. Furthermore, the compendial method for analysis of ponatinib was not found, while the literature review of a non-compendial method for analysis of ponatinib, such as spectroscopic, chromatographic, and immunoassay methods, was covered. Moreover, pharmacology and biochemistry were surveyed in the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies.

Avanafil is an oral medication used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED). As a phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor, it functions by inhibiting the PDE5 enzyme, which ultimately results in increased levels of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) and improved blood flow to the penis. Approved by the FDA in 2012, avanafil is recognised for its rapid onset of action, short half-life, and favourable side-effects profile. While it has been explored for other potential therapeutic applications, its current approved use is limited to ED and should be used as prescribed by a medical professional. This chapter provides a comprehensive review of avanafil, encompassing its nomenclature, physicochemical properties, methods of preparation, and identification. Various techniques for analysing avanafil, such as electrochemical analysis, spectrophotometric, spectrofluorimetric, and chromatographic techniques, are discussed. The pharmacology of avanafil, including its pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, is also examined.
