Abstract
Sapitinib (AZD8931, SPT) is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) family (pan-erbB). In multiple tumor cell lines, STP has been shown to be a much more potent inhibitor of EGF-driven cellular proliferation than gefitinib. In the current study, a highly sensitive, rapid, and specific LC-MS/MS analytical method for the estimation of SPT in human liver microsomes (HLMs) was established with application to metabolic stability assessment. The LC-MS/MS analytical method was validated in terms of linearity, selectivity, precision, accuracy, matrix effect, extraction recovery, carryover, and stability following the FDA guidelines for bioanalytical method validation. SPT was detected using electrospray ionization (ESI) as an ionization source under multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) in the positive ion mode. The IS-normalized matrix factor and extraction recovery were acceptable for the bioanalysis of SPT. The SPT calibration curve was linear, from 1 ng/mL to 3000 ng/mL HLM matrix samples, with a linear regression equation of y = 1.7298x + 3.62941 (r2 = 0.9949). The intraday and interday accuracy and precision values of the LC-MS/MS method were −1.45–7.25% and 0.29–6.31%, respectively. SPT and filgotinib (FGT) (internal standard; IS) were separated through the use of an isocratic mobile phase system with a Luna 3 µm PFP(2) column (150 × 4.6 mm) stationary phase column. The limit of quantification (LOQ) was 0.88 ng/mL, confirming the LC-MS/MS method sensitivity. The intrinsic clearance and in vitro half-life of STP were 38.48 mL/min/kg and 21.07 min, respectively. STP exhibited a moderate extraction ratio that revealed good bioavailability. The literature review demonstrated that the current analytical method is the first developed LC-MS/MS method for the quantification of SPT in an HLM matrix with application to SPT metabolic stability evaluation.
