Abstract:
Background: Antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) have been conjugated to various moieties, such as peptides, antibodies or Fab regions of antibodies, to enhance their delivery to target tissues. The quantitation of free ASO (ASO payload) is critical to characterize its pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) properties and biodistribution after delivery of the peptide/antibody/Fab ASO conjugates.Results: We developed a hybridization-based LC-MS/MS methodology for quantification of free ASO in tissues in the presence of Fab-ASO and ASO with linker (ASO-linker).Conclusion: The developed method was applied to measure accurately the free ASO concentrations in liver and gastrocnemius in mice that were dosed with Fab-ASO. This methodology has also been applied to free ASO bioanalysis for other antibody-ASO and Fab-ASO conjugates in various tissues and plasma/serum samples.
