Abstract
Maintaining safe and potent pharmaceutical drug levels is often challenging. Multidomain peptides (MDPs) assemble into supramolecular hydrogels with a well-defined, highly porous nanostructure that makes them attractive for drug delivery, yet their ability to extend release is typically limited by rapid drug diffusion. To overcome this challenge, we developed self-assembling boronate ester release (SABER) MDPs capable of engaging in dynamic covalent bonding with payloads containing boronic acids (BAs). As examples, we demonstrate that SABER hydrogels can prolong the release of five BA-containing small-molecule drugs as well as BA-modified insulin and antibodies. Pharmacokinetic studies revealed that SABER hydrogels extended the therapeutic effect of ganfeborole from days to weeks, preventing Mycobacterium tuberculosis growth better than repeated oral administration in an infection model. Similarly, SABER hydrogels extended insulin activity, maintaining normoglycemia for six days in diabetic mice after a single injection. These results suggest that SABER hydrogels present broad potential for clinical translation.

Abstract
Bacterial infection is a leading cause of neonatal death. Ceftazidime, commonly used for neonatal infections, is often used off-label. Blood sampling limits pharmacokinetic (PK) studies in neonatal patients. The dried blood spots (DBS) are a potential matrix for microsampling. Herein, we describe an ultra-performance liquid chromatography with a photodiode array (UPLC-PDA) to determine ceftazidime in DBS from neonatal patients in support of pharmacokinetic studies. The Capitainer® device-based DBS samples containing 10 µL blood were extracted in 70% methanol/water (v/v) with acetaminophen as the internal standard (IS). The extraction process was carried out at 20 °C using a block bath shaker at 1000 rpm for 30 min. The extracted ceftazidime was subsequently eluted through an Acquity UPLC HSS T3 column (2.1 × 50 mm, 1.8 µm). Elution was achieved using a water (containing 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid)/acetonitrile linear gradient at a flow rate of 0.5 mL/min, and the analytical time was 3.2 min. The PDA detection wavelength was set at 259 nm. The method underwent thorough validation following the recommendation of the European Bioanalysis Forum (EBF) and the bioanalytical guideline established by the European Medicines Agency (EMA). No interfering peaks were detected at the retention times of ceftazidime and IS. The ceftazidime exhibited a quantification range spanning from 0.5 to 200 µg/mL, and the assay demonstrated good accuracy (intra/inter-assay ranging from 90.1% to 104.8%) and precision (intra/inter-assay coefficient of variations ranging from 4.8% to 11.7%). The method's applicability was demonstrated by analyzing clinical DBS samples collected from neonatal patients.

Müller IR, Linden G, Charão MF, Antunes MV, Linden R. Dried blood spot sampling for therapeutic drug monitoring: challenges and opportunities. Expert Rev Clin Pharmacol 2023; 16:691-701. [PMID: 37300458 DOI: 10.1080/17512433.2023.2224562] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2023] [Accepted: 06/08/2023] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The use of dried blood spots (DBS) has gained interest in the field of therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) due to its potential advantages, such as minimally invasive capillary blood collection, potential stabilization of drugs and metabolites at room or high temperatures, and lower biohazard, allowing for inexpensive storage and transportation. However, there are several drawbacks to the clinical use of DBS in TDM, mostly related to hematocrit (Hct) effects, differences between venous and capillary blood concentrations, among others, that must be evaluated during analytical and clinical method validation. AREA COVERED This review focuses on the most recent publications on the applications of DBS sampling for TDM (2016-2022), with a special focus on the challenges presented by this alternative sampling strategy, as well as the opportunities for clinical applications. Real-life studies presenting clinical applications were reviewed. EXPERT OPINION With the availability of method development and validation guidelines for DBS-based methods in TDM, higher levels of assay validation standardization have been achieved, expanding the clinical applications of DBS sampling in patient care. New sampling devices that overcome the limitations of classical DBS, such as the Hct effects, will further encourage the use of DBS in routine TDM.

RAPID COMMUNICATIONS IN MASS SPECTROMETRY : RCM 2023; 37:e9416. [PMID: 36226756 DOI: 10.1002/rcm.9416] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2022] [Revised: 09/26/2022] [Accepted: 10/04/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
RATIONALE An LC-MS/MS method was established to measure tigecycline in dried blood spots (DBSs). METHODS The DBS specimens obtained by applying 30 μl of blood to filter paper were extracted with hydrogen oxide and subsequently precipitated protein with perchloric acid, then the extract was directly analyzed by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. A Hypersil GOLD aQ column was utilized for separating the analytes, and detection was carried out in positive and selective reaction monitoring modes. The precursors to product ion transitions m/z 586.3 → 513.1 and m/z 586.3 → 569.2 were monitored for tigecycline, and m/z 473.2 → 456.0 and m/z 473.2 → 367.0 for 9-amino minocycline as internal standard. RESULTS The validation parameters of specificity and selectivity, linearity (0.02-5 μg ml-1 ), sensitivity (limit of quantification 0.02 μg ml-1 ), intra- and interday precision (within 15%) and relative error (within ±15%) were acceptable. The recoveries were from 84.65% to 90.49% and from 85.41% to 95.72% for tigecycline and internal standard, respectively, and the matrix effect was not evident to influence accuracy. The impact of hematocrit on measurement of the analyte was negligible, and after preserving at ambient temperature for 24 h and at 4°C for 1 month it remained steady. CONCLUSIONS The advantages of nonintrusive blood collection and micro-volume sample requirements make DBS a potent surrogate to conventional venepuncture for sampling.

Abstract
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE Posaconazole is the second-generation triazole antifungal agent with widespread clinical application. Posaconazole exposure is influenced by various factors such as drug interactions, disease state and diet, resulting in a high interindividual variability in many patients and failure to ensure therapeutic efficacy. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct individualized therapy on posaconazole to ensure the efficacy and safety of treatment. METHODS Articles were identified through PubMed using the keywords such as "posaconazole," "therapeutic drug monitoring" and "Population pharmacokinetics" from 1 January 2001 to 30 April 2022. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION In this paper, we review the individualized treatment studies of posaconazole from the three aspects of therapeutic drug monitoring, population pharmacokinetic study and Monte Carlo simulation to provide reference for in-depth individualized posaconazole dosing studies. WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION This review suggests that therapeutic drug monitoring should be performed in patients taking posaconazole to adjust the dosage and assess the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of posaconazole under different clinical conditions and different dosing regimens through Monte Carlo simulations. In the future, a more detailed delineation and comprehensive examination of posaconazole PPK for specific populations requires further study.
