Popis: A rapid, sensitive and specific analytical method has been developed and validated to quantify the collagenase inhibitor N2-(2(5)-[(hydroxycarbamoyl)methyl)-4-methylvaleryl]-N1, 3-dimethyl-L-valin-amide (I) and its major metabolite (II) from plasma and urine. This method employs an automated solid-phase extraction procedure to isolate the analytes and the internal standard from the biological matrix. Reconstituted extracts were analyzed by HPLC-ionspray MS-MS. Chromatography was performed on a 4.6 mm I.D. reversed-phase guard column. The retention times of the analytes and the internal standard were approximately 1.3 min. The assay has a limit of quantification of 5 ng/ml plasma and a limit of detection of 1 ng/ml, based on 100-micro l plasma aliquots. No sample-drying step was required. The standard curves were linear form 5 to 5000 ng/ml using weighted linear regression analysis (1/y2). The intra- and inter-assay precision were better than + or - 10% with intra- and inter-assay accuracies between 95 and 105%. this new HPLC-MS-MS assay procedure for I and II in plasma and urine has proven to be specific, sensitive, accurate and robust, and is being used routinely for the analysis of I in pre-clinical and clinical trial samples. Up to 200 unknowns may be analyzed each 24 h per analyst.
