Abstract
Thyrotropin alfa is a heterodimeric glycoprotein containing human thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH). It is used as an adjunctive diagnostic tool for serum thyroglobulin (Tg) testing with or without radioiodine imaging in the follow-up of patients with well-differentiated thyroid cancer who have previously undergone thyroidectomy. Inter-lot variability in the Fourier transform near-infrared spectra of 30 samples obtained from four separate lots of Thyrogen® was detected in the Drug Quality Study (DQS). The vials fell into two distinct groups (rtst = 0.90, rlim= 0.98, p=0.02). In addition, one vial of the 30 (3%) appeared 4.7 multidimensional SDs from all of the other vials, suggesting that it also represents a different material.
