A Novel LC-MS/MS-Based Method for the Diagnosis of ADA2 Deficiency from Dried Plasma Spot.

ABSTRACT: Adenosine Deaminase 2 Deficiency (DADA2) (OMIM: 607575) is a monogenic, autoinflammatory disease caused by the loss of functional homozygous or heterozygous mutations in the ADA 2 gene (previously CECR1, Cat Eye Syndrome Chromosome Region 1). A timely diagnosis is crucial to start Anti-TNF therapies that are efficacious in controlling the disease. The confirmation of DADA2 is based on DNA sequencing and enzymatic assay. It is, thus, very important to have robust and reliable assays that can be rapidly utilized in specialized laboratories that can centralize samples from other centers. In this paper, we show a novel enzymatic assay based on liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry that allows the accurate determination of the ADA2 enzyme activity starting from very small amounts of plasma spotted on filter paper (dried plasma spot). The method allows significantly distinguishing healthy controls from affected patients and carriers and could be of help in implementing the diagnostic workflow of DADA2.

Project description:BackgroundTherapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) using cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors (CDK4/6is) is a novel approach for optimizing treatment outcomes. Currently, palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are the available CDK4/6is and are primarily coadministered with letrozole. This study aimed to develop and validate an LC-MS/MS method for the simultaneous analysis of CDK4/6is, 2 active metabolites of abemaciclib (M2 and M20), and letrozole in human plasma for use in TDM studies.MethodsSample pretreatment comprised protein precipitation with methanol and dilution of the supernatant with an aqueous mobile phase. Chromatographic separation was achieved using a reversed-phase XBridge BEH C18 column (2.5 μm, 3.0 × 75 mm XP), with methanol serving as the organic mobile phase and pyrrolidine-pyrrolidinium formate (0.005:0.005 mol/L) buffer (pH 11.3) as the aqueous mobile phase. A triple quadrupole mass spectrometer was used for the detection, with the ESI source switched from negative to positive ionization mode and the acquisition performed in multiple reaction monitoring mode.ResultsThe complete validation procedure was successfully performed in accordance with the latest regulatory guidelines. The following analytical ranges (ng/mL) were established for the tested compounds: 6-300, palbociclib and letrozole; 120-6000, ribociclib; 40-800, abemaciclib; and 20-400, M2 and M20. All results met the acceptance criteria for linearity, accuracy, precision, selectivity, sensitivity, matrix effects, and carryover. A total of 85 patient samples were analyzed, and all measured concentrations were within the validated ranges. The percent difference for the reanalyzed samples ranged from -11.2% to 7.0%.ConclusionsA simple and robust LC-MS/MS method was successfully validated for the simultaneous quantification of CDK4/6is, M2, M20, and letrozole in human plasma. The assay was found to be suitable for measuring steady-state trough concentrations of the analytes in patient samples.
