Abstract
The present study describes the application of on-line liquid chromatography-electrospray ionisation in conjunction with a high resolution magnetic sector mass spectrometer to identify metabolites of a platinum(IV) anticancer drug JM216 bis(acetato)amminedichloro(cyclohexylamine)platinum(IV)] in human plasma. Four metabolites were identified following incubation of JM216 in human plasma: JM118 [amminedichlorocyclohexylamineplatinum(II)], a platinum(II) complex; JM383 [bis(acetato)amminedihydroxo(cyclohexylamine)platinum(IV)]; JM518 [bis(acetato)amminechloro(cyclohexylamine)hydroxoplatinum(IV)] and its isomer JM559. The platinum complexes mass spectra were dominated by the natriated [M + Na] + ion. Elemental compositions of these natriated ions were confirmed by accurate mass measurement on a magnetic sector mass spectrometer in the course of LC/MS analysis. This study demonstrates the capability of direct LC-ESI/MS with accurate mass measurement for analysis of platinum complexes in biological samples. Our results suggest that LC-ESI/MS is a powerful technique for structure elucidation of novel metabolites, and could make valuable contributions to drug metabolism research.
