Abstract
Background: In support of a pilot clinical trial using acetaminophen as the model compound to assess DBS sampling as a suitable method for clinical pharmacokinetic (PK) studies, a novel sensitive LC-MS/MS method was developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of acetaminophen and its major metabolites, acetaminophen glucuronide and sulfate, in human DBS samples collected by subjects. Results: The validated assay dynamic range was from 50.0 to 5000 ng/mL for each compound using a 1/8 (3-mm) disc punched from a DBS. Baseline separation of the three analytes from each other was achieved to eliminate the possible impact on the analysis of the parent due to in-source conversion of the conjugated metabolites to the parent. The overall extraction efficiency was from 61.3 to 78.8 % for the three analytes by direct extraction using methanol. Conclusions: The validated assay method was successfully implemented in the pilot clinical study with the PK parameters in agreement with the values reported in literature

| Keywords: | •Dried blood spot sampling: Technique in which blood is spotted on cellulose or polymer-based paper and dried. • Pharmacokinetics: Study of the movement of drugs in the body, including the processes of absorption, distribution and excretion. • Therapeutic drug monitoring. A branch of clinical chemistry and clinical pharmacology that specializes in the measurement of blood concentrations of drugs, especially those with a narrow therapeutic window, for improving patient care via dose adjustment of the drugs. • Remote PK sample collection: Collection of PK samples, normally DBS, conventionally carried out by patients themselves or their guardians after minimal training • DBS card. Cellulose or polymer based material of known characteristics, used for the collection, shipping and storage of dried blood spot samples. |
