A reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic method is described for the determination of seven anthracycline analogues and their hydroxy metabolites. The method is suitable for analysis of 30 plasma samples a day. The detection limit is 0.5 ng/ml for all compounds. Examples of the pharmacokinetics of adriamycin and carminomycin in man are shown.
