Raltitrexed is a thymidylate synthase inhibitor that can be administered safely to patients with cardiovascular disease or dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase deficiency, as opposed to 5FU. The recommended dose of 3mg/m2 every 3 weeks often leads to toxicity. Interestingly, the 2mg/m2 every 2 weeks dose appears to be less toxic. A pharmacokinetic trial was then performed by our team to investigate such phenomenon. However, there are currently, two main methods for RTX measurement described in the literature: a radioimmunoassay (RIA) and chromatographic-based methods with either UV or mass spectrometry detections. The RIA methods: display a low limit of quantification (below 1μg/L), but also a low extent of linearity for the calibration curve. The chromatographic-based methods: include high level of calibrators, but have poor sensitivity (>2μg/mL). If a high sensitivity is essential to satisfactorily describe the elimination of RTX, high concentrations in the calibration curve are also needed to avoid bias linked to the dilutions of the samples. A new LC-MS/MS method was then developed that allows to simultaneously measure very low (0.1μg/L) and very high (3000μg/L) concentrations in the same run. Moreover, the extraction steps are very simple and fast with mainly a precipitation and a filtration steps. This method was validated following the EMA recommendations. In view of the extent of the calibration curve, the carry-over effect was more deeply investigated. With this method, it was possible to measure RTX in samples taken 3 weeks after the administration. Taken together, this method allows to simply and quickly measure RTX in plasma of patients.
