摘要
A novel liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method has been developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of tipiracil (TIP), trifluridine (FTD), and their metabolites, 5-trifluoromethyluracil (FTY) and 5-carboxy-2′-deoxyuridine (5CDU), in rat plasma. This method is highly sensitive, specific, and fast. Paracetamol (PAR) is used as an internal standard (IS). Using acetonitrile-induced protein precipitation, the analytes were extracted from a plasma sample and separated on a Waters BEH C18 (1.7 μm particle size, 50 mm × 2.1 mm ID) column protected by a security guard cartridge (C18, 4 × 2.0 mm). The isocratic mobile phase was made up of methanol and water containing 0.1% formic acid (80:20, v/v) at a flow rate of 0.5 mL/min for 4 min. The quantification was performed using a positive electrospray ionization (ESI) interface and a multiple-reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. The MRM transitions employed were m/z 242.96 → 182.88 for TIP, 296.96 → 116.86 for FTD, 180.98 → 139.85 for FTY, 272.96 → 156.86 for 5CDU, and 151.97 → 92.68 for IS. The validated method complied with the guidelines set by the US-FDA over on a linear concentration range of 5–4000 ng/mL for FTD, FTY, and 5CDU, and 5–1000 ng/mL for TIP. The coefficient of determination (r2) was equal to or greater than 0.997. The corresponding lower limits of detection (LLOD) were 1.5 ng/mL for FTD, FTY, and 5CDU and 1.0 ng/mL for TIP. The recoveries of all analytes from rat plasma ranged from 88.67% to 112.18%, and the mean relative standard deviation (RSD) of accuracy and precision result was less than or equal to 6.84%. FTD, FTY, 5CDU, and TIP demonstrated adequate stability throughout the various circumstances examined. Additionally, no matrix effects were identified for any of the analytes. The assay was effectively utilized to conduct a pharmacokinetic study in rats following the oral administration of FTD and TIP at a dosage of 5.6 mg/kg, with a ratio of 1:0.5 for FTD and TIP, respectively. This indicates that the suggested approach is suitable for future clinical research. The pharmacokinetic parameters Cmax (maximum concentration), Tmax (time to reach maximum concentration), t1/2 (half-life), AUC0-24 (area under the concentration–time curve from 0 to 24 h), AUC total (total area under the concentration–time curve), Ke (elimination rate constant), Vd (volume of distribution), and CL (clearance) of all analytes were assessed. The assay developed exhibits significant advancements compared to earlier bioanalytical methods documented in the literature. These improvements include high sensitivity, specificity, and efficacy in high throughput analysis of complex matrices. Additionally, the assay offers a shorter run time and smaller sample volume (50 μL).
