Abstrakt: Aim: A sensitive method to quantify nafithromycin and its N-desmethyl metabolite in human plasma was necessary for Phase I pharmacokinetic studies. Methodology: A precise and accurate LC-MS/MS bioanalytical method has been developed and validated for the simultaneous quantification of nafithromycin (NFT, WCK 4873) and N-desmethyl metabolite (M1, WCK 4978) in human plasma. Clarithromycin was used as an internal standard. Protein precipitation technique was used as sample preparation approach. The calibration curve was linear (r ≥ 0.99) over the concentration range of 10-5000 ng/ml for NFT and M1. Method was validated as per US FDA guideline. Conclusion: The proposed method was successfully applied for determination of plasma levels of the NFT and M1 during Phase I clinical studies.
