Abstract
A quantitative bioanalytical liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometric (LC-MS/MS) assay for GSK2126458, a dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitor, was developed and validated. Plasma and tumor homogenate samples were pre-treated using protein precipitation with acetonitrile containing dabrafenib as internal standard. After dilution with water, the extract was directly injected into the reversed-phase liquid chromatographic system. The eluate was transferred into the electrospray interface with positive ionization and compounds were detected in the selected reaction monitoring mode of a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer.The assay was completely validated for plasma in a 4–4000ng/ml calibration range with r2=0.9996±0.0003 using double logarithmic calibration (n=5). Within-run precisions (n=6) were 2.0–5.3% and between-run (3 runs; n=18) precisions 2.7–5.8%. Accuracies were between 101 and 105% for the whole calibration range. The drug was sufficiently stable under all relevant analytical conditions. Finally, the assay was successfully applied to determine plasma and tumor drug levels after oral administration of GSK2126458 to mice with AMC711T neuroblastoma xenografts.
