To develop and validate a one-step, rapid and simple reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-based protocol for the simultaneous measurement of voriconazole (VCZ), posaconazole (POSA), itraconazole (ITC) in serum/plasma.
Calibration standards (CS) and quality control samples were prepared in drug-free serum by spiking with the triazoles at different concentrations. HPLC was performed with C column, isocratic mobile phase after extraction with cold acetonitrile. The standardized method was tested in 2693 patients' serum/plasma samples.
Linearity of CS for ITC, VCZ and POSA was proportional to the nominal concentration (correlation coefficient > 0.999). Limit of detection (mg/L) for ITC, VCZ and POSA was 0.25, 0.25 and 0.125, respectively. The lower limit of quantification (mg/L) for ITC, VCZ and POSA was 0.5, 0.5 and 0.25, respectively. Precision and accuracy were in acceptable range with 100% average percentage recovery. No interferences from endogenous substances and other antimicrobial compounds were noted. In clinical samples, the therapeutic range achieved for VCZ was 39.9%. Whereas, 61.1% and 44% of samples with ITC and POSA, respectively, were in the sub-therapeutic range.
We developed a rapid and simple HPLC method to quantify common triazoles in a single chromatographic run allowing simultaneous measurement of different antifungals in a small volume of serum/plasma. Thus, therapeutic drug monitoring requests can be processed in one run without changing the protocol parameters, column or column conditioning thereby improving turnaround time.
开发并验证一种一步法、快速且简单的反相高效液相色谱(HPLC)方法,用于同时测定血清/血浆中的伏立康唑(VCZ)、泊沙康唑(POSA)和伊曲康唑(ITC)。
通过向无药物血清中加入不同浓度的三唑类药物来制备校准标准品(CS)和质控样品。采用 C 柱,冷乙腈提取后等度洗脱进行 HPLC 分析。该标准化方法在 2693 例患者的血清/血浆样本中进行了测试。
CS 中 ITC、VCZ 和 POSA 的线性与名义浓度成正比(相关系数>0.999)。ITC、VCZ 和 POSA 的检测限(mg/L)分别为 0.25、0.25 和 0.125,定量下限(mg/L)分别为 0.5、0.5 和 0.25。精密度和准确度均在可接受范围内,平均回收率为 100%。未发现内源性物质和其他抗菌化合物的干扰。在临床样本中,VCZ 的治疗范围达到 39.9%。而 ITC 和 POSA 的样本中,分别有 61.1%和 44%处于亚治疗范围。
我们开发了一种快速简单的 HPLC 方法,可在单次色谱运行中定量常见的三唑类药物,允许在小体积的血清/血浆中同时测定不同的抗真菌药物。因此,无需更改协议参数、柱或柱条件,即可在一次运行中处理治疗药物监测请求,从而缩短周转时间。
