J Pharm Biomed Anal 2024; 243:116079. [PMID: 38471255 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpba.2024.116079] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2023] [Revised: 12/11/2023] [Accepted: 02/29/2024] [Indexed: 03/14/2024]
Abstract
This aim of the work was to establish an acceptable sensitive assay based on ultra-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) for quantitatively analyzing the plasma concentrations of iguratimod (IGR) and its metabolite M2 in rats, and to further investigate the effect of fluconazole on the pharmacokinetics of IGR and M2. The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile and water with 0.1% formic acid, was used to separate IGR, M2 and internal standard (IS) fedratinib on a UPLC BEH C18 column (2.1 mm × 50 mm, 1.7 μm) with the flow rate of 0.4 mL/min. Positive ion mode and multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) were used to construct the quantitative analysis. The calibration standard of IGR and M2 covered 2-10000 and 1-1000 ng/mL respectively, with the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) as 2 ng/mL and 1 ng/mL respectively. In addition, selectivity, recovery, accuracy, precision, matrix effect and stability of the method validation program were well accepted in this work. Subsequently, this approach was used to assess the effect of fluconazole on the pharmacokinetics of IGR and M2 in rats. In the presence of 20 mg/kg fluconazole (experimental group), we found the main pharmacokinetic parameters were significantly altered when compared with 2.5 mg/kg IGR alone (control group). Among them, AUC(0-∞) and Cmax of IGR in the experimental group was 1.43 and 1.08 times higher than that of the control group, respectively. Moreover, we also found that the other main pharmacokinetic parameters of M2 had no significant changes, except t1/2z and Tmax. In conclusion, fluconazole significantly altered the main pharmacokinetics of IGR and M2 in rats. It implys that we should pay more attention to the adverse reaction of IGR when the concomitant use of fluconazole and IGR occur in the future clinical practice.

Abstract
Ibrutinib (IBR) is an oral anticancer medication that inhibits Bruton tyrosine kinase irreversibly. Due to the high risk of adverse effects and its pharmacokinetic variability, the safe and effective use of IBR is expected to be facilitated by precision dosing. Delivering suitable clinical laboratory information on IBR is a prerequisite of constructing fit-for-purpose population and individual pharmacokinetic models. The validation of a dedicated high-throughput method using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry is presented for the simultaneous analysis of IBR and its pharmacologically active metabolite dihydrodiol ibrutinib (DIB) in human plasma. The 6 h benchtop stability of IBR, DIB, and the active moiety (IBR+DIB) was assessed in whole blood and in plasma to identify any risk of degradation before samples reach the laboratory. In addition, four regression algorithms were tested to determine the optimal assay error equations of IBR, DIB, and the active moiety, which are essential for the correct estimation of the error of their future nonparametric pharmacokinetic models. The noncompartmental pharmacokinetic properties of IBR and the active moiety were evaluated in three patients diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia to provide a proof of concept. The presented methodology allows clinical laboratories to efficiently support pharmacokinetics-based precision pharmacotherapy with IBR.

Abstract
A simple, specific, selective and accurate bioanalytical method was developed and validated for simultaneous estimation of acalabrutinib and its active metabolite in human plasma using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Deuterated analogs of both the analytes were used as internal standards. The extraction of analytes and internal standards were evaluated from the human plasma by liquid–liquid extraction technique using methyl tertiary butyl ether (TBME). The separation of the analytes was carried out on Zorbax Eclipse XDB-C18 (150 × 4.6 mm, 5 μm) column with a mixture of acetonitrile and 10 mM ammonium formate in 0.1% formic acid buffer (65 : 35, v/v) as mobile phase at a flow rate of 1 mL min−1. The method linearity was determined in the widen concentration range from 5.000 ng mL−1 to 1600 ng mL−1 with r2 > 0.99. The entire method validation was carried out as per the USFDA guidelines on bioanalytical method validation and all validation experiment results were found within acceptable limits. Clinical pharmacokinetic study of both the parent drug and its active metabolite was successfully performed on six healthy volunteers under fasting conditions by applying the present method. A simple, specific, selective and accurate bioanalytical method was developed and validated for simultaneous estimation of acalabrutinib and its active metabolite in human plasma using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS).![]()

Zhou SK, Zhang Y, Ju YH, Zhang Q, Luo D, Cao YD, Yao WF, Tang YP, Zhang L. Comparison of content-toxicity-activity of six ingenane-type diterpenoids between Euphorbia kansui before and after stir-fried with vinegar by using UFLC-MS/MS, zebrafish embryos and HT-29 cells. J Pharm Biomed Anal 2020; 195:113828. [PMID: 33349474 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpba.2020.113828] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2020] [Revised: 12/02/2020] [Accepted: 12/03/2020] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
The dried roots of Euphorbia kansui (EK) are especially beneficial for the treatment of edema, but the severe toxicity limits their clinical applications. Euphorbia kansui stir-fried with vinegar (VEK) is traditionally employed to reduce the toxicity of EK. However, the material basis for the toxicity reduction with effectivity conservation is still unclear. Therefore, in this study, a rapid, sensitive, and reliable ultra-fast liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UFLC-MS/MS) method was firstly established to simultaneously determine six ingenane-type diterpenoids, i.e. kansuiphorin C (1), 5-O-benzoyl-20-deoxyingenol (2), 20-deoxyingenol (3), 3-O-(2'E,4'E-decadienoyl)-20-O-acetylingenol (4), 20-O-(2'E,4'Z-decadienoyl)ingenol (5), and ingenol (6), in EK and VEK based on the processing conversion. Then, the toxicity evaluation on zebrafish embryos and modulation of the expression of aquaporin-3 (AQP3) proteins in HT-29 cells were employed to investigate the toxicity-activity of six compounds. Chromatographic separation was obtained on Waters BEH RP18 column (2.1 mm × 100 mm, 2.5 μm) with the mobile phase composed of 0.1 % formic acid in acetonitrile and water, respectively. The column temperature was 35 ℃ at a flow rate of 0.4 mL min-1. Multiple reaction monitoring was conducted in both positive and negative modes for quantitative analysis. The method was then successfully used for the determination of six compounds in EK and VEK. In addition, 1, 2, 4, and 5 had evident cardiotoxicity, intestinal irritation and nutrient absorption disorders on zebrafish larvae, while no in-vivo toxicity was seen for groups given 3 and 6 (LC50 > 200 μM). Meanwhile, 1, 2, 4, 5, and 6 significantly increased the expression of AQP3 protein (p < 0.05) to promote the excretion of water in the colon. This study demonstrated that toxic ingenane-type diterpenoids converted into the less toxic compounds with the same core structure through the breakage of multiple ester bonds in the side chain. At the same time, the laxative effect was retained, providing useful information for the optimization of the process of EK and quality evaluation of other similar toxic Chinese herbal medicines.
