N-glycan PK Profiling Using a High Sensitivity nanoLCMS Work-Flow with Heavy Stable Isotope Labeled Internal Standard and Application to a Preclinical Study of an IgG1 Biopharmaceutical.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

In this study an innovative, highly sensitive work-flow is presented that allows the analysis of a possible influence of individual glyco-variants on pharmacokinetics already during pre-clinical development. Possible effects on the pharmacokinetics caused by glyco-variants have been subject of several studies with in part contradictory results which can be related to differences in the set-up.

Methods

Using 96-well plate based affinity purification an IgG1 antibody was isolated from preclinical samples and glycans were analyzed individually by nanoLCMS. Prerequisite was a reference standard based on stable heavy isotope labeled glycans. The high sensitivity and low sample consumption enabled the integration into the preclinical development program.
