Insights

A new assay quantifies CX1003, a novel cancer drug, in human plasma. This validated method supports early clinical trials for patients with advanced solid tumors.

Area of Science:

  • Pharmacology
  • Analytical Chemistry
  • Oncology

Background:

  • CX1003 is a novel multitargeted receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor.
  • It is intended for patients with relapsed or metastatic malignant solid tumors.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a robust and rapid assay for quantifying CX1003 in human plasma.
  • To validate the assay for use in clinical pharmacokinetic studies.

Main Methods:

  • Plasma samples were purified using solid-phase extraction (SPE).
  • Separation was performed on a Waters Acquity CSH C18 column.
  • Detection utilized positive electrospray ionization via ultra-performance LC-MS/MS.

Main Results:

  • The developed assay demonstrated good sensitivity and specificity.
  • The method was successfully validated for quantifying CX1003 in human plasma.

Conclusions:

  • The validated assay is suitable for quantifying CX1003 in human plasma.
  • This method supports the first-in-human clinical pharmacokinetic study of CX1003 in Chinese patients.

Detection and Quantification of Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide (CGRP) in Human Plasma Using a Modified Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay

Published data pertaining to calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) concentrations in human plasma are inconsistent. These inconsistencies may be due to the lack of a standardized, validated methodology to quantify this neuropeptide. Here, we describe a validated enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) protocol to purify and quantify CGRP in human...
