Development and validation of a sensitive LC MS/MS method for the measurement of the checkpoint kinase 1 inhibitor prexasertib and its application in a cerebral microdialysis study
2018
Abstract LC MS/MS methods to measure prexasertib in mouse plasma and Ringer’s solution containing 0.5% BSA (Ringer’s/BSA) were developed and validated. Liquid-liquid extraction with tert -butyl methyl ether was used to extract prexasertib from mouse plasma and Ringer’s/BSA. Reverse phase chromatography with gradient elution was performed to separate prexasertib from the endogenous interference in the matrix, followed by MS detection using positive ion MRM mode. The initial calibration curve for mouse plasma samples ranged from 1 to 500 ng/ml, and after validation of that curve and use in a preliminary study another calibration curve (0.2–200 ng/ml) was created to enable the quantitation of prexasertib at lower concentrations. The method described was precise and accurate with %CV in precision studies of ≤ 6.7% and accuracies within 95.0–110% of nominal target concentration across all concentrations tested for both matrices. This validated method was successfully applied in the analysis of prexasertib in mouse plasma and dialysate samples collected during a cerebral microdialysis study.
