Abstract

A sensitive and rapid ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method has been developed and validated for 14 antiretroviral drugs and 2 boosters in human plasma. Plasma (100 μL) was precipitated with a solution of acetonitrile containing labelled internal standards. The compounds were separated with a total chromatic run time of 6 min using an Acclaim TM RSLC 120 C18 column (2.1 × 100 mm, 2.2 μm). The method was fully validated according to the European Medecines Agency guidelines. Linearity of all analytes concentrations was validated up to 5000 ng/mL. Lower limits of quantification were ranged from 2.5 ng/mL to 10 ng/mL according to compounds. Intra-day and inter-day precision ranged from 0.2% to 8.9% and accuracies were below 13%. This UPLC-MS/MS method can be applied to clinical pharmacology research and therapeutic drug monitoring in patients living with HIV.
