by LC/MS
Method Development
Extraction conditions, chromatography conditions, MS parameters
Very challenging; dictated by the chemistry of the analytes, maximum
sensitivity often required, instability, non-specific binding, tight time
pressures.
Method Validation
Highly regulated; A/P, stability, robustness, selectivity, matrix effects,
etc.
Constantly evolving requirements; additional tests
Sample Analysis
Tight time pressures, sample dilution, sample discrepancies with
clinics, ISR

Mass Spectrometry
in Drug Development
Why is Mass Spectrometry such a good tool for these
applications?
Selective
Allows the discrimination of a target analyte to the exclusion of
other interferences.
Sensitive
Can routinely detect analytes at ng/mL, pg/mL and sub pg/mL levels.
Mass Spectrometry
in Drug Development
Why is Mass Spectrometry such a good tool for these
applications?
Selectivity
Biological samples are first extracted (PPE, SPE, LLE, SLE)
Chromatographic Separation (GC, HPLC, UPLC, Microflow
LC)
Multiple MS Techniques
Full Scan
SIM
MS/MS (SRM, Product Ion, Precursor Ion, Neutral Loss)
TOF/MS
HRAM
Mass Spectrometry
in Drug Development
MS/MS (tandem MS, triple-quadrupole MS) and
Selected Reaction Monitoring (SRM) is by far the most
commonly used technique for quantitative bioanalysis
for PK/PD testing.
