Abstract
TNG908 is a potent and selective protein arginase methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) inhibitor that is currently going through phase I/II clinical development for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer. To facilitate pharmacokinetic and toxicokinetic studies of TNG908, here, we reported an ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method for the detection of TNG908 in dogs. The dog plasma samples were precipitated by acetonitrile and analyzed using a Waters ACQUITY BEH C18 column combined with a Thermo triple quadrupole mass spectrometer. The mobile phase consisted of 0.1% formic acid solution and acetonitrile, at a flow rate of 0.3mL/min. TNG908 and internal standard were monitored by selective reaction monitoring (SRM) with m/z 410.2 > 150.1 and m/z 394.2 > 278.1, respectively. The method demonstrated excellent linearity over the concentration range of 1-1000 ng/mL, with a correlation coefficient greater than 0.995. Acetonitrile-mediated protein precipitation showed high extraction efficiency and a recovery above 80%. The validated assay was further applied to measure TNG908 in dog plasma after oral and intravenous administration and achieved success. The obtained pharmacokinetic parameters indicated low clearance of TNG908 (3.7 ± 0.8mL/min/kg) and moderate oral bioavailability (>36.4%).
