Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of in vitro diagnosis, and in particular to a kit for detecting the concentration of venetoclax and a method for detecting the concentration of venetoclax. Background Art

[0002] Venetal, an oral, selective B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) inhibitor, has demonstrated remarkable therapeutic potential and clinical value in the treatment of various hematologic malignancies. In chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), overexpression of BCL-2 leads to impaired apoptosis and accumulation of mature leukemic lymphocytes. In non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), overexpression of BCL-2 promotes cell survival and enhances resistance to cancer therapies. Venetal binds to BCL-2 with high specificity and inhibits its overexpression, thereby suppressing the release of pro-apoptotic proteins from anti-apoptotic proteins and triggering cell death. Venetal kills tumor cells primarily by inducing intrinsic apoptosis. In vitro studies have shown that venetoclax is primarily metabolized by CYP3A4 and is a substrate of the P-glycoprotein efflux pump, exhibiting strong drug interactions with drugs such as ketoconazole, posaconazole, and rifampicin. Long-term, high-dose use of venetoclax can lead to life-threatening tumor lysis syndrome and common adverse reactions, including neutropenia and thrombocytopenia. Furthermore, the relative bioavailability of venetoclax is nonlinear across patients, exhibiting significant individual variability. Therefore, in clinical practice, therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) is necessary for patients taking venetoclax. This allows for dosage adjustments based on monitored concentrations to ensure effective exposure in the patient's body, while also reducing the incidence of adverse drug reactions and improving the safety and efficacy of clinical medication.

[0003] Currently, there are only a few methods for the quantitative determination of venetoclax in biological fluids, primarily including fluid scintillation counting (LSC), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS / MS). However, these methods typically require multiple sample preparation steps, such as liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) and solid-phase extraction (SPE), as well as lengthy processing times. Therefore, given the low concentrations of analytes, the presence of numerous interfering substances, the small sample size, and the difficulty in obtaining clinical samples, it is imperative to develop detection methods with higher sensitivity, specificity, and rapid analysis speeds. Furthermore, most clinical mass spectrometry-based testing methods are laboratory-developed methods (LDTs), using reagents that are not part of the kit. This makes it difficult to trace the methods back to reference materials or methods, and the accuracy and reproducibility of the test results await further clinical validation. In summary, there is currently a lack of a commercially available mass spectrometry-based detection kit that is both efficient and sensitive. Summary of the Invention

[0040] Preparation of quality control products: including low-concentration venetoclax methanol solution (2 ng / mL), medium-concentration venetoclax methanol solution (20 ng / mL), and high-concentration venetoclax methanol solution (80 ng / mL). The specific preparation process is as follows: Preparation of high-concentration venetoclax methanol solution: Take 800 μL of 100 ng / mL venetoclax standard solution, add 200 μL of 50% methanol-water solution, and shake to mix to obtain 80 ng / mL high-concentration venetoclax methanol solution.

[0043] Preparation of internal standard stock solution: The internal standard solution uses the isotope labeled d8-venetoclax of the analyte venetoclax. The internal standard stock solution has a molar concentration of 50 ng / mL. When used, the internal standard stock solution needs to be diluted 10-fold to prepare the internal standard working solution. For example, 100 μL of the internal standard stock solution and 900 μL of the sample dilution treatment solution 50% (v / v) methanol aqueous solution are mixed and diluted 10-fold to prepare an internal standard-sample release agent with a concentration of 5 ng / mL.

[0045] Mobile phase: The mobile phase of this kit includes mobile phase A and mobile phase B, wherein mobile phase A is 5mM ammonium acetate aqueous solution and mobile phase B is methanol.

[0046] Example 2 Standard curve drawing 10 μL of calibrators and quality control products of each concentration were added to 90 μL of blank cerebrospinal fluid, mixed evenly, and then 200 μL of internal standard-sample release agent was added for HPLC-MS / MS detection to draw a standard curve.

[0047] In this example, the liquid chromatography conditions for HPLC-MS / MS detection are as follows: chromatographic column: Chromcore 120 C18 2.1 mm × 100 mm, 3 μm analytical column; column temperature 45° C.; flow rate 0.55 mL / min; injection volume 2 μL; mobile phase A is 5 mM ammonium acetate aqueous solution; mobile phase B is methanol; gradient elution program is: 0-1min: 95% mobile phase B, the balance is mobile phase A; 1-1.5 min: 95%-100% mobile phase B, the balance is mobile phase A; 1.5-2 min: 100% mobile phase B, the balance is mobile phase A; 2-2.1 min: 100%-70% mobile phase B, the balance mobile phase A; 2.1~3.5min: 70% mobile phase B, the balance mobile phase A.

[0048] HPLC-MS / MS mass spectrometry conditions were as follows: multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) of venetoclax and its internal standard was performed using an electrospray ionization (ESI) source in positive ion mode. MS / MS spectra of venetoclax and its internal standard were first acquired in Q3 full scan mode. Full scan mass spectral data were then acquired in product ion scan mode. A collision energy gradient (-10 V to -40 V) was set to optimize fragment ion yields. Product ion scans confirmed that the characteristic ion pairs of the target and internal standard exhibited good specificity and no crosstalk. The ion transition for venetoclax was 868.2 → 321, and the ion transition for d-8 venetoclax was 876.2 → 329.0. The ion source voltage was 4500 V, the interface temperature was 300°C, the collision gas was argon, the collision pressure was 230 kPa, the heating gas was air, and both the nebulizing and drying gases were nitrogen.

The standard curve is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the linear regression equation is Y=0.104606X+0.00514873, r=0.9983003, and the linear relationship is good in the range of 0.1~10.0ng / mL.

[0050] Example 3 Detection of venetoclax concentration in human cerebrospinal fluid S1: Preparation of internal standard-sample release agent: dilute the internal standard d8-venetoclax stock solution (50 ng / mL) with a sample dilution solution of 50% (v / v) methanol in water to prepare an internal standard-sample release agent with a d8-venetoclax concentration of 5 ng / mL; S2: Sample pretreatment: Take 100 μL of cerebrospinal fluid containing venetoclax, add 200 μL of the internal standard-releasing agent prepared in step S1, vortex mix for 3-5 minutes, and centrifuge at 4°C and 14,000 × g for 10 minutes; S3: Pipette the supernatant into a clean centrifuge tube and centrifuge again under the conditions in step S2. The final supernatant is used as the test solution and subjected to HPLC-MS / MS detection. S4: Compare the results of HPLC-MS / MS detection with the standard curve and calculate the concentration of venetoclax in the sample.

[0051] In this example, the liquid chromatography conditions for HPLC-MS / MS detection are as follows: chromatographic column: Chromcore 120 C18 2.1 mm × 100 mm, 3 μm analytical column; column temperature 45° C.; flow rate 0.55 mL / min; injection volume 2 μL; mobile phase A is 5 mM ammonium acetate aqueous solution; mobile phase B is methanol; gradient elution program is: 0-1min: 95% mobile phase B, the balance is mobile phase A; 1-1.5 min: 95%-100% mobile phase B, the balance is mobile phase A; 1.5-2 min: 100% mobile phase B, the balance is mobile phase A; 2-2.1 min: 100%-70% mobile phase B, the balance mobile phase A; 2.1~3.5min: 70% mobile phase B, the balance mobile phase A.

[0052] HPLC-MS / MS mass spectrometry conditions were as follows: multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) of venetoclax and its internal standard was performed using an electrospray ionization (ESI) source in positive ion mode. MS / MS spectra of venetoclax and its internal standard were first acquired in Q3 full scan mode. Full scan mass spectral data were then acquired in product ion scan mode. A collision energy gradient (-10 V to -40 V) was set to optimize fragment ion yields. Product ion scans confirmed that the characteristic ion pairs of the target and internal standard exhibited good specificity and no crosstalk. The ion transition for venetoclax was 868.2 → 321, and the ion transition for d-8 venetoclax was 876.2 → 329.0. The ion source voltage was 4500 V, the interface temperature was 300°C, the collision gas was argon, the collision pressure was 230 kPa, the heating gas was air, and both the nebulizing and drying gases were nitrogen. The heating gas flow rates were 10 L / min, the nebulizing gas flow rate was 3 L / min, and the drying gas flow rate was 10 L / min. The collision energy was 37 V, and the scan time was 50 ms. The HPLC-MS / MS test results were incorporated into the standard curve to obtain the concentration of venetoclax in the sample.

[0053] Example 4 Anti-interference performance verification Under the conditions of Example 2 and Example 3, the retention time of venetoclax was 1.656 min, and the retention time of d8-venetoclax was 1.652 min.

[0054] Six cerebrospinal fluid clinical samples from patients receiving venetoclax were collected for actual sample verification. After the same pretreatment, the samples were injected and analyzed to obtain the chromatograms as shown in the following figure. Figure 2 As shown. Figure 2It can be seen that the chromatographic peak shape of the target compound is symmetrical, and no metabolite or drug interference peaks were found in the patient samples, which confirms the applicability of the method to real complex biological samples and its strong anti-interference ability.

[0055] Example 5 Sensitivity testing The standard working solution of 1 ng / mL of venetoclax and the quality control product were added to the blank cerebrospinal fluid, and the whole process was processed and the sample was analyzed. The chromatogram was obtained as follows: Figure 3 As shown. Figure 3 It can be seen that the elution time of venetoclax and the internal standard is around 1.65 min, and the chromatographic peak shape is good, which proves that this method can meet the needs of trace detection and can achieve venetoclax detection as low as 0.1 ng / mL.

[0056] Example 6 Accuracy and precision verification 10 μL of each calibrator of varying concentrations from Example 1 was added to 90 μL of blank cerebrospinal fluid, mixed thoroughly, and then 200 μL of the internal standard-sample release agent was added. The mixture was shaken and centrifuged to prepare low, medium, and high quality control samples containing venetoclax at concentrations of 0.2 ng / mL, 2 ng / mL, and 8 ng / mL. The samples were then injected and analyzed using the HPLC-MS / MS detection conditions described in Example 2. Five replicates were run to assess intra-day precision. Measurements were repeated for 2-3 consecutive days, and the measured concentrations of the samples were calculated based on the standard curve for each day to assess the inter-day precision of the assay. The measured concentrations of the quality control samples were compared with the standard concentrations to assess the accuracy of the assay. The results are shown in Table 1. As can be seen from Table 1, the relative standard deviations (RSDs) for intra-day and inter-day precision were less than 15%, and the standard errors (REs) were less than 15%, meeting the basic requirements of the relevant guidelines.

[0057] Table 1 Example 7 Extraction recovery and matrix effect detection The quality control product in Example 1 was measured, 90 μL of blank cerebrospinal fluid was taken, 10 μL of working solution was added to prepare low, medium and high quality control solutions (0.1, 2, 8 ng / mL), vortexed thoroughly, 200 μL of internal standard-sample release agent was added, vortexed and centrifuged again, the supernatant was collected, and then sampled and analyzed according to the detection conditions of high performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry in Example 2, and the peak area A was determined; another 100 μL of blank cerebrospinal fluid was taken, 200 μL of methanol was added, vortexed and centrifuged for 15 minutes, and then 90 μL of the entire supernatant solution was taken into a new EP tube, 10 μL of working solution was added to prepare low, medium and high quality control solutions (0.1, 2, 8 ng / mL), and the sample was analyzed in the same way to measure the chromatographic peak area B; low, medium and high standard solutions (0.1, 2, 8 ng / mL) were prepared in the same way using methanol as the solvent, and the sample was analyzed to measure the chromatographic peak area C. The peak areas A\B obtained by the above measurements were compared with the chromatographic peak area C to evaluate the extraction recovery and matrix effect. The results are shown in Table 2.

[0058] Table 2 In Table 2, the extraction recovery rate and matrix effect are the means of five groups of data. It can be seen from Table 2 that the matrix effect has little influence on the kit of the present invention. At the same time, the recovery rate of the present invention is high.

[0059] Example 8 Stability test The high, medium, and low concentrations of the quality control products in Example 1 were used to perform room temperature stability tests (20°C for 4 hours), post-treatment stability tests (4°C for 24 hours), frozen stability tests (-80°C for 50 days), and freeze-thaw stability tests (freeze-thaw cycles 3 times). The peak area ratios of the measured results were substituted into the standard curve to calculate the measured values, and the room temperature, post-treatment, frozen, and repeated freeze-thaw stability tests were evaluated. The experimental results are shown in Table 3. As can be seen from Table 3, the measured values ​​are basically consistent with the added amounts, indicating that venetoclax is stable under all conditions.

[0060] Table 3 As can be seen from the above examples, the kit and detection method of the present invention are simple to operate, have accurate results, good linearity and stability, good extraction recovery, and the RSDs of intra-batch and inter-batch precision and accuracy are both less than 10%, which meets the requirements of clinical testing and can realize the monitoring of clinical batch samples.
