Ther Drug Monit 2023; 45:660-667. [PMID: 37185798 DOI: 10.1097/ftd.0000000000001101] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2022] [Accepted: 01/24/2023] [Indexed: 05/17/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to assess the effect of perampanel dose, age, sex, and antiseizure medication cotherapy on steady-state free-perampanel concentration in children with refractory epilepsy, as well as the relationship between inflammation and the pharmacokinetics of perampanel. METHODS This prospective study in China included 87 children with refractory epilepsy treated with adjunctive perampanel therapy. Free and total perampanel concentrations in plasma were determined using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Free-perampanel concentration was compared among patients with various potential influencing factors. RESULTS A total of 87 pediatric patients (44 female children) aged 2-14 years were enrolled. The mean free-perampanel concentration and free concentration-to-dose (CD) ratio in plasma were 5.7 ± 2.7 ng/mL (16.3 ± 7.7 nmol/L) and 45.3 ± 21.0 (ng/mL)/(mg/kg) [129.6 ± 60.1 (nmol/L)/(mg/kg)], respectively. The protein binding of perampanel in plasma was 97.98%. A linear relationship was observed between perampanel dose and free concentration in plasma, and a positive relationship was found between the total and free-perampanel concentrations. Concomitant use of oxcarbazepine reduced the free CD ratio by 37%. Concomitant use of valproic acid increased the free CD ratio by 52%. Five patients had a plasma high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (Hs-CRP) level of >5.0 mg/L (Hs-CRP positive). The total and free CD ratios of perampanel were increased in patients with inflammation. Two patients with inflammation developed adverse events, which disappeared as the Hs-CRP level returned to normal, and neither required perampanel dose reduction. Age and sex did not influence the free-perampanel concentration. CONCLUSIONS This study found complex drug interactions between perampanel and other concomitant antiseizure medications, providing valuable information to enable clinicians to apply perampanel in the future reasonably. In addition, it may be important to quantify both the total and free concentrations of perampanel to assess complex pharmacokinetic interactions.

Abstract
This study has developed and validated a novel LC-MS/MS assay method to quantify perampanel in pediatric patients with epilepsy in Xinjiang, China. Our assay reduces current specimen volume requirements, and decreases the turnaround time for results. Samples were separated by gradient elution and then injected into the mass spectrometer with a total run-time of 3 min per sample. Detection of ions from the analytes was conducted using multiple reactions by monitoring transitions of m/z 350.2-m/z 219.0 for perampanel and m/z 359.1-m/z 323.1 for IS, as precursor ion and product one, respectively. The peak area ratios of perampanel with IS within the plasma samples were linear in the concentration range of 0.1-3.2 μg/mL (y = 2.87 x + 0.61; r 2 ≥ 0.99). The within-run and between-run precision coefficient of variation (CV (%) did not exceed 11.03%, and the accuracy (bias) ranged from -1.07% to 6.69%. The mean absolute recoveries of perampanel for four QC levels (including LLOQ, LQC, MQC and HQC) determined by this method were 87.69%, 94.04%, 107.50% and 95.15%, respectively. The stability results for this method showed that the plasma samples of perampanel were stable under all tested conditions (86.43-104.81%), with % CV maximum of 8.74%.

[PMID: 34463320 DOI: 10.1093/chromsci/bmab106] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2021] [Revised: 07/14/2021] [Accepted: 08/11/2021] [Indexed: 11/15/2022]
Abstract
A novel stability-indicating isocratic reverse phase high-performance liquid chromatographic method was developed for the quantitative determination of perampanel in the presence of degradation products and its process-related impurities. Good resolution was achieved between the peaks corresponding to process-related impurities and degradation products from the analyte using Shim-pack GIST C18 column with mobile phase, potassium dihydrogen phosphate (pH 2.5; 30 mM)-acetonitrile (45: 55, v/v) at a wavelength of 294 nm. Perampanel and its impurities were well-separated within a run time of 7 min. To show the stability-indicating power of the method, forced degradation studies were performed on bulk samples of perampanel as per ICH prescribed stress condition using acid, base, hydrolytic, oxidative and photolytic degradation conditions. The degradation products were resolved from main peak and its impurities. The developed method was validated as per ICH guidelines with respect to specificity, linearity, limit of detection, limit of quantification, accuracy, precision and robustness. This method was also applied for assay and related substances determination of perampanel in bulk and pharmaceutical dosage form.

Liquid chromatographic methods for determination of the new antiepileptic drugs stiripentol, retigabine, rufinamide and perampanel: A comprehensive and critical review. J Pharm Anal 2021; 11:405-421.

Abstract
The new antiepileptic drugs perampanel, retigabine, rufinamide and stiripentol have been recently approved for different epilepsy types. Being them an innovation in the antiepileptics armamentarium, a lot of investigations regarding their pharmacological properties are yet to be performed. Besides, considering their broad anticonvulsant activities, an extension of their therapeutic indications may be worthy of investigation, especially regarding other seizure types as well as other central nervous system disorders. Although different liquid chromatographic (LC) methods coupled with ultraviolet, fluorescence, mass or tandem-mass spectrometry detection have already been developed for the determination of perampanel, retigabine, rufinamide and stiripentol, new and more cost-effective methods are yet required. Therefore, this review summarizes the main analytical aspects regarding the liquid chromatographic methods developed for the analysis of perampanel, retigabine (and its main active metabolite), rufinamide and stiripentol in biological samples and pharmaceutical dosage forms. Furthermore, the physicochemical and stability properties of the target compounds will also be addressed. Thus, this review gathers, for the first time, important background information on LC methods that have been developed and applied for the determination of perampanel, retigabine, rufinamide and stiripentol, which should be considered as a starting point if new (bio)analytical techniques are aimed to be implemented for these drugs.

Abstract
Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) is a recognized method to improve the quality of use of antiepileptic drugs, such as perampanel (PRP). It is the first compound in the class of selective non-competitive antagonists of AMPA receptors approved in 2012 in Europe and United States for adjunctive therapy of partial seizures. Although several studies have recently underlined that a general reference range for PRP plasmatic concentration might be difficult to propose, TDM of this drug is important in specific clinical situations, as hepatic or renal impairment or co-administration with enzyme-inducing antiepileptics. Several methods have been described in literature for the determination of PRP in different biological matrices, which include the use of liquid chromatography methods coupled with ultraviolet, fluorescence, mass or tandem-mass spectrometry detection. Here we describe the development and validation of a novel method for the measurement of PRP in plasma samples, based on a HPLC-UV/FL double detection approach and using ketoprofen as internal standard. PRP concentration in a small subset of plasma samples of treated patients was evaluated using both our approach and a commercially available CE-IVD LC-MS/MS method. The results obtained were compared, and confirmed the possibility to use our method as an alternative to LC-MS/MS in clinical routine.

Development and application of an HPLC-DAD technique for human plasma concentration monitoring of perampanel and lamotrigine in drug-resistant epileptic patients. J Chromatogr B Analyt Technol Biomed Life Sci 2021; 1162:122491. [PMID: 33360678 DOI: 10.1016/j.jchromb.2020.122491] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/01/2020] [Revised: 11/23/2020] [Accepted: 12/03/2020] [Indexed: 01/12/2023]
Abstract
Perampanel is a third-generation antiepileptic drug (AED), while lamotrigine is a second-generation AED. Both drugs are subject to extensive pharmacokinetic variability between different patients. Furthermore, it has been reported that perampanel and lamotrigine may be implied in pharmacokinetic drug-drug interactions with other AEDs such as carbamazepine or valproate, with consequent alterations of plasma concentrations. This emphasizes the relevance of therapeutic drug monitoring of perampanel and lamotrigine with appropriate bioanalytical methods. Herein, the development and validation of a bioanalytical techique for the simultaneous quantification of perampanel and lamotrigine in human plasma samples is described. The reported method is based on high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with diode-array detection (HPLC-DAD) and sample preparation consists of liquid-liquid extraction. Chromatographic separation of the analytes (lamotrigine and perampanel) and the internal standard (entacapone) was achieved in 12 min on a reversed-phase C18 column at 40 °C by applying a gradient elution program with a mobile phase composed of 0.1% ortho-phosphoric acid pH 2.79 (A) and acetonitrile (B) pumped at 1.0 mL/min. Perampanel was quantified at 320 nm while lamotrigine and the internal standard were monitored at 306 nm. Calibration curves were linear in the concentration range of 0.03-4.5 µg/mL (r2 = 0.9978) for perampanel and in the concentration range of 0.25-30 µg/mL (r2 = 0.9981) for lamotrigine. Overall precision did not exceed 14.3% and accuracy ranged from -6.08 to 12.66%. Some drugs potentially co-prescribed with perampanel and lamotrigine were tested and did not interfere with the retention times of the analytes and internal standard. The method was then successfully applied for the quantification of perampanel and lamotrigine in plasma samples obtained from 42 drug-resistant epileptic patients admitted to the Coimbra University Hospital Centre (CHUC.EPE, Coimbra, Portugal). In conclusion, it is a suitable method for the therapeutic drug monitoring of lamotrigine and perampanel in drug-resistant epileptic patients, as well as, for the assessment of drug-drug interactions. It can also be adopted by hospitals and laboratories, when HPLC with fluorescence and mass spectrometry detections are unavailable.

Abstract
The review presents data from the last few years on bioanalytical methods used in therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of the 1st-3rd generation and the newest antiepileptic drug (AEDs) cenobamate in patients with various forms of seizures. Chemical classification, structure, mechanism of action, pharmacokinetic data and therapeutic ranges for total and free fractions and interactions were collected. The primary data on bioanalytical methods for AEDs determination included biological matrices, sample preparation, dried blood spot (DBS) analysis, column resolution, detection method, validation parameters, and clinical utility. In conclusion, the most frequently described method used in AED analysis is the LC-based technique (HPLC, UHPLC, USLC) combined with highly sensitive mass detection or fluorescence detection. However, less sensitive UV is also used. Capillary electrophoresis and gas chromatography have been rarely applied. Besides the precipitation of proteins or LLE, an automatic SPE is often a sample preparation method. Derivatization was also indicated to improve sensitivity and automate the analysis. The usefulness of the methods for TDM was also highlighted.

Abstract
Here, we developed a novel high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for quantification of perampanel in clinical practice and investigated the relationships between the plasma concentrations of perampanel obtained by this HPLC method and the CYP3A4*1G polymorphism. The developed HPLC method was validated based on US Food and Drug Administration. The developed HPLC method could be performed with a plasma volume of only 200 μL and had a limit of quantification (LOQ) of 2.5 ng/mL. The coefficients of variation (CVs) for intra- and inter-day assays were less than 10.4 and 7.2%, respectively, and the accuracy was <2.4% for both assays. A total of 12 patients who received 2 mg perampanel had C0 values ranging from 70.5 to 451 ng/mL, and the CV showed a large variation of 51.4%. No correlations were observed between the dose-adjusted C0 and the CYP3A4*1G polymorphism. This method was superior to previously reported methods in terms of plasma volume and LOQ and was clinically applicable. Perampanel showed high variations in individual plasma concentrations; however, individual differences could not be predicted from analysis of the CYP3A4*1G polymorphism before perampanel administration. Therefore, after beginning perampanel treatment, the dose should be determined based on the observed plasma concentration.

Abstract
We prospectively examined the effect of antiepileptic (AED) cotherapy on steady state plasma concentrations of perampanel (PMP) in epileptic patients. We classified AEDs as strong enzyme inducers (carbamazepine, phenobarbital, phenytoin, oxcarbazepine), not strong enzyme inducers/not inhibitors (levetiracetam, lamotrigine, topiramate, rufinamide, lacosamide, zonisamide, clobazam), and enzyme inhibitors (valproic acid [VPA]). The main outcome was the comparison of PMP plasma concentration to weight-adjusted dose ratio (C/D; [μg/mL]/mg kg-1 d-1 ) among comedication subgroups. From 79 patients (42 females, 37 males) aged (mean ± standard deviation) 33 ± 13 years (range = 12-66 years), 114 plasma samples were collected. Twenty-eight patients (44 samples) were cotreated with enzyme inducers (group A), 21 (27 samples) with not strong enzyme inducers/not inhibitors (group B), 21 (31 samples) with not strong enzyme inducers/not inhibitors + VPA (group C), and 9 (12 samples) with enzyme inducers + VPA (group D). PMP C/D was reduced (-56%, P < .001) in group A (1.79 ± 0.80) versus group B (4.05 ± 2.16) and increased (P < .001) in group C (6.72 ± 4.04) compared with groups A (+275%), B (+66%), and D (2.76 ± 2.00, +143%). Our study documents the unpublished higher PMP C/D in patients cotreated with VPA. These findings have both theoretical relevance, suggesting better characterization of PMP metabolic pathways with ad hoc studies, and clinical usefulness in managing patients on AED polytherapy.
