AbstractEnasidenib is a selective mutant isocitrate dehydrogenase 2 inhibitor approved for the treatment of relapsed and refractory acute myeloid leukemia patients. A sensitive and rapid method has been developed and validated as per regulatory guideline for the simultaneous quantitation of enasidenib and its active metabolite, AGI-16903 in mice plasma using an LC-MS/MS. Enasidenib and AGI-16903 along with internal standard were extracted from mice plasma using simple protein precipitation method. Chromatographic resolution of enasidenib, AGI-16903 and the internal standard (close analogue of AGI-16903) was achieved on a Chromolith RP-18e column using 0.2% formic acid:acetonitrile (15:85, v/v) as an eluent, which was delivered at a flow-rate of 1.2 mL/min. The MS/MS ion transitions monitored were m/z 474.1→267.2, 402.1→188.1 and 421.0→146.1 for enasidenib, AGI-16903 and the internal standard, respectively. The linearity range was 1.01–3023 ng/mL for both enasidenib and AGI-16903. The within-run and between-run accuracy and within-run and between-run precision were in the range of − 2.29 to 2.72 (as one value is in negative side). and 4.65–9.82%, respectively for enasidenib; 0.19–10.3 and 3.22–9.22%, respectively for AGI-16903. Both enasidenib and AGI-16903 were found to be stable in stability (up to three freeze-thaw cycles and for long-term at −80°C for 30 days) and processed (bench-top for 6 h and in in-injector for 24 h) samples. Application of the validated method was shown in a pharmacokinetic study in mice.

AbstractSAFit-1 and SAFit-2 are selective FKBP51 (FK506-binding protein 51) ligands. In this paper, we present the development and validation data of an LC-MS/MS method for the simultaneous quantitation of SAFit-1 and SAFit-2 in mice plasma as per FDA regulatory guideline. SAFit-1 and SAFit-2 along with internal standard were extracted from mice plasma using liquid-liquid extraction method. Chromatographic resolution of SAFit-1, SAFit-2 and the internal standard (warfarin) was achieved on an X-Terra phenyl column using 0.2% formic acid:acetonitrile (20:80, v/v) as an eluent, which was delivered at a flow-rate of 0.9 mL/min. The MS/MS ion transitions monitored were m/z 748.4→420.4, 803.7→384.3 and 309.2 →163.2 for SAFit-1, SAFit-2 and the internal standard, respectively. The linearity range was 2.45–2446 ng/mL for both SAFit-1 and SAFit-2. The intra- and inter-day accuracy and intra- and inter-day precision were in the range of 0.90–1.07 and 2.38–10.8%, respectively for SAFit-1; 0.97–1.15 and 0.23–12.5%, respectively for SAFit-2. Both SAFit-1 and SAFit-2 were found to be stable in stability studies (up to three freeze-thaw cycles and for long-term at −80°C for 30 days) and processed (bench-top for 3 h and in in-injector for 16 h) samples. The application of the validated method was shown in a pharmacokinetic study in mice.

AbstractIvosidenib is an approved drug for relapsed or refractory IDH1 mutant AML patients. The goal of the present work is to develop and validate an LC-MS/MS method for the quantitation of ivosidenib in mice dried blood spots (DBS) as per regulatory guideline in the linearity range of 1.10–3293 ng/mL. To date there is no bioanalytical method reported for quantitation of ivosidenib. The chromatographic resolution of ivosidenib and internal standard (warfarin) was achieved on a C18 column with an isocratic mobile phase. All validation parameters met the acceptance criteria. The intra- and inter-day precision was in the range of 2.79–10.5 and 5.76–9.02%, respectively. Ivosidenib was stable for 3 freeze/thaw cycles, up to 7 days at room temperature and for one month at −80°C. The applicability of the validated method is shown in a mice pharmacokinetic study. Ivosidenib was quantifiable up to 24 and 36 h following intravenous and oral administration to mice, respectively. The oral bioavailability was 48%. Comparison of DBS vs. plasma concentrations of ivosidenib showed excellent correlation, indicating DBS can be used as an alternative for plasma for pharmacokinetic analysis.

AbstractLarotrectinib, is an orally active novel small molecule approved for the treatment of solid tumors in pediatrics and adult patients. It acts by inhibiting tropomyosin receptor kinase. In this paper, we report the development and validation of a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for the quantitation of larotrectinib in mice plasma as per the FDA regulatory guideline. Plasma samples processing was accomplished through simple protein precipitation using acetonitrile enriched with internal standard (IS, enasidenib). The chromatographic analysis was performed using a gradient mobile phase comprising 10 mM ammonium acetate and acetonitrile at a flow-rate of 0.8 mL/min on an X-Terra Phenyl column. The UV detection wave length was set at λmax 262 nm. Larotrectinib and the IS eluted at 3.85 and 6.60 min, respectively with a total run time of 8.0 min. The calibration curve was linear over a concentration range of 0.20–5.00 μg/mL (r2=≥0.992). The intra- and inter-day precision and accuracy results were within the acceptable limits. Results of stability studies indicated that larotrectinib was stable on bench-top, in auto-sampler, up to three freeze/thaw cycles and long-term storage at −80°C. The validated HPLC method was successfully applied to a pharmacokinetic study in mice.

Aim and Objective:: An analytical method for the determination of mobocertinib, an investigational tyrosine kinase inhibitor, was developed and optimized by high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) in rat plasma. Materials and Methods:: Plasma samples were pretreated by the protein precipitation method with a methanol solution of osimertinib as the internal standard (IS). Chromatographic separation was performed using an Inertsil ODS-3 column (50 mm × 4.6 mm, I.D. 5 μm) column with the temperature maintained at 40 °C. The mobile phase consisted of water (containing 0.1% formic acid) and methanol in a gradient mode at a flow rate of 0.5 mL/min. Mass spectrometric detection was carried out in the selected reaction monitoring (SRM) mode with positive electrospray ionization, and the mass transitions of mobocertinib and osimertinib were m/z 587.01 → 71.88 and m/z 499.80 → 71.94, respectively. The method was validated in terms of selectivity, linearity, accuracy and precision, extraction recovery and matrix effect, stability and carryover as per the guidelines for bioanalytical method validation (FDA, 2018). The method was applied to the pharmacokinetic study of mobocertinib in rats by oral gavage at the doses of 2, 6, and 18 mg/kg. A total of 216 plasma samples from 18 rats were analyzed. Results:: It showed good linearity over the range of 1-1000 ng/mL (R2 = 0.9957). The intra-batch accuracy was within 94.65-102.59% and the precision was within 5.49-10.46%. The inter-batch accuracy was within 97.08-102.25% with a precision of 7.54-10.13%. The extraction recovery and matrix factor were acceptable for the bioanalysis of mobocertinib. Additionally, mobocertinib was found to be stable under the detected conditions. Mobocertinib showed linear pharmacokinetic characteristics following oral administration to rats at 2.0-18.0 mg/kg. Conclusion:: The developed and validated method was successfully employed in the pharmacokinetic study in rats following oral administration of mobocertinib at the doses of 2, 6, and 18 mg/kg.

AbstractA simple, sensitive and rapid assay method has been developed and validated as per regulatory guideline for the estimation of tofacitinib on mice dried blood spots (DBS) using liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry with electro spray ionization in the positive-ion mode. The method employs liquid extraction of tofacitinib from DBS disk of mice whole blood followed by chromatographic separation using 5 mM ammonium acetate (pH 6.5):acetonitrile (20:80, v/v) at a flow rate of 0.60 mL/min on an X-Terra Phenyl column with a total run time 2.5 min. The MS/MS ion transitions monitored were m/z 313→149 for tofacitinib and m/z 316→149 for the internal standard (13C3, 15N-tofacitinib). The assay was linear in the range of 0.99–1980 ng/mL. The intra- and inter-day precision was in the range of 1.17–10.3 and 3.37–10.9%, respectively. Stability studies showed that tofacitinib was stable on DBS cards for one month. This novel method has been applied to analyze the DBS samples of tofacitinib obtained from a pharmacokinetic study in mice.

The occurrence of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) within six months from a diagnosis of breast cancer (BC) is rarely reported in the literature, and it is associated with a poor prognosis. We report herein the case of a 40-year-old woman referred to our centre affected by BC and simultaneous AML. The patient proved refractory to first line therapy and achieved complete remission (CR) with a clofarabine-based regimen followed by allogeneic stem cell transplantation (ASCT). Both during salvage chemotherapy and after ASCT, the patient presented severe infectious complications ( acute cholecistytis and Nocardia pneumonia, respectively) treated with surgery, and currently she is alive in CR for both diseases after 29 months of follow-up. The case highlights the importance of a diagnostic assessment of any unexplained cytopenia in association with solid neoplasia under treatment, underlining the feasibility and priority of a timely treatment of the haematological neoplasm in order to achieve long-term survival.

AbstractA simple, selective and reliable LC-MS/MS method was developed and validated for the simultaneous quantitation of darolutamide diastereomers (diastereomer-1 and diastereomer-2) and its active metabolite i. e. ORM-15341 in mice plasma using warfarin as an internal standard (IS) as per the regulatory guidelines. Plasma samples were extracted by liquid-liquid extraction and the chromatographic separation was achieved on a Chiralpak IA column with an isocratic mobile phase 5 mM ammonium acetate:absolute alcohol (20:80, v/v) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. Detection and quantitation was done by multiple reaction monitoring on a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer following the transitions: m/z 397→202, 395→202 and 307→250 for darolutamide diastereomers, ORM-15341 and the IS, respectively in the negative ionization mode. The calibration curves were linear (r>0.992) in the range of 100–2400 ng/mL for all the analytes. The intra- and inter-day precisions were in the range of 1.25–10.2 and 1.58-12.3; 2.85-5.68 and 1.85-9.58; 2.34-12.1 and 2.58-7.38 for diastereomer-1, diastereomer-2 and ORM-15341, respectively. Both diastereomers and ORM-15341 were found to be stable under different stability conditions. The validated method was applied to a pharmacokinetic study in mice.
