    • 摘要: 目的 建立人血浆中依折麦布(ezetimibe,EZE)和总依折麦布(total ezetimibe,EZE-T)的LC-MS/MS测定方法,并用于依折麦布片人体生物等效性(bioequivalency,BE)研究。方法 分别采用直接沉淀法和酶解后沉淀法处理血浆样品。内标为依折麦布-d4(EZE-d4),色谱柱为Waters ACQUITY UPLC® BEH C18(2.1 mm×50 mm,1.7 μm),流动相为0.1%乙酸-乙腈(A),0.1%乙酸-水(B),梯度洗脱,流速0.2 mL·min-1。在ESI源负离子模式下使用离子对m/z 408.2→271.0(EZE)和m/z 412.2→271.1(EZE-d4)进行MRM定量分析。对口服相同剂量受试制剂或参比制剂依折麦布片的健康受试者的血药浓度进行定量分析。结果 血浆中内源性物质不干扰待测物定量,EZE、EZE-T及EZE-d4不存在相互干扰和/或相互转化。人血浆中EZE和EZE-T的线性范围分别为0.1~20,1~200 ng·mL-1,线性关系良好。待测物与内标提取回收率均为102.4%~109.8%;内标归一化基质效应因子均为98.5%~99.4%,变异系数(CV)均<5%;批内、批间准确度偏差均<15%,CV均<10%。用本法测定得到的EZE和EZE-T的浓度水平及获取的药动参数与文献报道一致,生物样品再分析复测值与原测值的偏差均<10%。结论 本法特异性强、灵敏、准确,重复性好,所需样本体积少,满足依折麦布片人体BE研究的定量分析需求。

       

      Abstract: OBJECTIVE To establish LC-MS/MS methods for the determination of concentration of ezetimibe(EZE) and total ezetimibe(EZE-T) in human plasma and to use for a bioequivalence(BE) study of ezetimibe tablet formulations. METHODS Plasma samples were pre-treated by direct precipitation and post-enzyme precipitation for quantification of EZE and EZE-T, respectively. Ezetimibe-d4(EZE-d4) was used as the internal standard(IS). The analyte was retained and eluted using a Waters ACQUITY UPLC® BEH C18 column(2.1 mm×50 mm, 1.7 μm), with a binary mobile phase system consisting of 0.1% acetic acid-acetonitrile(A) and 0.1% acetic acid-water(B) at a flow rate of 0.2 mL·min-1. EZE and EZE-d4 were detected in an ESI source under negative ion mode, used the ion transitions of m/z 408.2→271.0 and m/z 412.2→271.1 for EZE and EZE-d4, respectively. The quantitation method was applied to analyze the blood drug concentration of healthy subjects after oral administration of the same dose of test or reference preparation ezetimibe tablets. RESULTS Endogenous substances in plasma did not interfere with the quantitative determination of the analyte, and EZE, EZE-T, EZE-d4 had no mutual interference and/or mutual transformation. The quantitative ranges of EZE and EZE-T in human plasma were 0.1-20 and 1-200 ng·mL-1, respectively, with good linearity. The recoveries of the analytes and IS were recorded between 102.4% and 109.8%. The IS-normalized matrix effect factors were recorded between 98.5% and 99.4% with coefficient of variation(CV) <5%. Intra- and inter-batch accuracy and precision were <15% with CV<10%. The plasma concentrations of EZE and EZE-T determined by the method and the pharmacokinetic parameters calculated there after in the BE study were in accordance with those found in previous reports. The deviation between the re-measured value of incurred sample reanalysis and the original measured value was <10%. CONCLUSION The method is specific, sensitive, accurate, reproducible requiring small sample volumes, and comfortably meets the requirements of ezetimibe BE studies.
