Abstract:
Background: The fully phosphorothioate-modified oligonucleotide (OGN) nusinersen has low ionization efficiency in the negative ion mode, resulting in a low mass spectrometry response. There have been no relevant reports on developing a LC-MS method for the determination of nusinersen by optimizing mobile phase composition. Materials & methods: Mobile phase additives comprised of 15 mM triethylamine/25 mM 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-propanol with a pH of 9.6. Nusinersen was extracted from plasma using Oasis® HLB solid-phase extraction (Waters, MA, USA). Results & conclusion: By adjusting the pH of the mobile phase to 9.6 by optimizing the type and concentration of ion-pair reagents, a high mass spectrometry response was obtained. The developed method was applied to nusinersen and met the requirements for the pharmacokinetic study of nusinersen in rabbits.
