Quantitation of tazemetostat in human plasma using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.

ABSTRACT: To support a phase 1 trial in patients with lymphomas, we developed a liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method for tazemetostat quantitation in 20 μL of human plasma. After protein precipitation, chromatographic separation employed a Kinetex C18 column and a gradient of 0.1% formic acid in both water and acetonitrile, during a 3-min run time. Detection was achieved using a SCIEX 6500+ tandem mass spectrometer with electrospray positive-mode ionization. Validation was based on the latest Food and Drug Administration guidance. With a stable isotopic internal standard, the assay was linear within the range of 10-5000 ng/mL and proved to be accurate (91.9%-103.7%) and precise (<4.4% imprecision). Recovery varied between 93.3% and 121.1%, and matrix effect ranged from -2
