Abstract
Coproporphyrins (CP-I and CP-III) have been identified as possible biomarkers to predict human hepatic organic anion-transporting polypeptides-mediated-drug-interactions for a new drug entering clinical development. The method is applicable to quantify plasma CP-I and CP-III within 0.078-15.0nM. The results identify and address a number of challenges encountered with porphyrin assays such as photodegradation and interferences. To overcome interferences from ubiquitous porphyrins, a surrogate matrix was used to prepare calibration standards. Quality controls were prepared in plasma and surrogate matrix to ensure parallelism between surrogate matrix and plasma. A robust UHPLC-MS/MS assay was developed and validated for CP-I and CP-III in plasma, and is currently applied to clinical studies to confirm suitability of Coproporphyrins as a potential substitute for drug-drug interaction study.
