The biotransformation of N-(6-phenoxyindan-5-yl)methansulphonamide (PMS) and of its 2',4'-difluoro derivative (DF-PMS) were studied in vitro using rat-liver homogenate followed by h.p.l.c. separation and mass-spectrometric identification of metabolites. Both sulphonamides were rapidly oxidized at positions 1 and 3. The pharmacokinetics of DF-PMS and of piroxicam were examined in the rat and monkey (Macaca fascicularis). Considerable concentrations were achieved in the plasma only by the 1-oxo metabolite of DF-PMS but not by the unchanged drug, indicating that the administered compound was a pro-drug of the active principle. 1-Oxo DF-PMS exhibited shorter half-lives, larger volumes of distribution and higher total clearance rates than piroxicam in the animal model studied.
