Abstract
A simple and sensitive HPLC-MS/MS method was developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of decitabine and valdecitabine in rat plasma. The analytes were separated on a C(18) column (150mm×4.6mm, 3.5μm) and a triple-quadrupole mass spectrometer equipped with an electrospray ionization (ESI) source was applied for detection. A clean solid-phase extraction procedure with cation exchange cartridge was employed to extract the analytes from rat plasma with high recovery of decitabine (>82%). The calibration curves were linear over a concentration range of 10-10,000ng/mL for decitabine and 5-500ng/mL for valdecitabine. The lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) of decitabine and valdecitabine was 10 and 5ng/mL, respectively. The intra-day and inter-day precisions were less than 15% and the relative error (RE) was all within ±15%. The validated method was successfully applied to a pharmacokinetics study in rats after either decitabine or valdecitabine orally administrated to the Sprague-Dawley rats.Entities:
