AIM Everolimus is an inhibitor of mTOR which is derived from rapamycin. Its high corneal permeability and bioavailability makes it an effective treatment for ocular disorders. To study the pharmacokinetics of in situ gel eye drops of everolimus suspension after ocular administration in rabbit aqueous humor, we developed a rapid and reliable HPLC-MS/MS method. METHODOLOGY/RESULTS Ascomycin was selected as the internal standard. HPLC-MS/MS method was used to investigate the concentration-time relationship of everolimus in rabbit aqueous humor through protein precipitation technique. The validated results showed good linearity, accuracy and precision. CONCLUSION The method developed in this study is rapid, sensitive and reliable for the determination of the concentration of everolimus in rabbit aqueous humor.
