Agilent Clinical LC/MS:
Review of Established LC-MS QQQ Clinical Research Applications
dr. Jan Srbek, HPST Page 1
Major LC-MS Clinical Applications • Steroids/Endocrinology – Vitamin D – Testosterone, Estradiol and Cortisone – Thyroxin
• Neonatal/Metabolic Diseases – – – –
Amino Acids Fatty acid metabolites Glucose metabolites Organic compounds
• Therapeutic Monitoring – Immunosuppressant drugs – Pain Medications – Pharmacogenomic Profiling
• Drugs of Abuse/Toxicology – Opiates, Benzodiazepines, Amphetamines, Anabolic Steroids Page 2
Clinical applications developed so far… Today, it is possible able to implement 8 clinical applications at customer sites (including the sample preparation) : • Homocysteine in plasma • Drugs of Abuse in urine • THC and metabolites in whole blood • Methylmalonic Acid (MMA) in plasma • Cortisol in urine • Plasmatic Metanephrines (MN and NMN) • Neonatal developed with Chromsystems, Munich • Immunosuppressant drugs developed with Recipe, Munich Please Note : The methods described in this presentation are for research purposes only and not for diagnostic use.

Therapeutic Drug Monitoring
2D LCMS/MS Method for the Analysis of Immunosuppressive Drugs in Blood : Tacrolimus, Sirolimus, Cyclosporin A and Everolimus
Page 6
Therapeutic Drug Monitoring TDM Immunosuppressants – 4 most commonly used substances • Cyclosporin A • Tacrolimus (also known as FK-506), • Sirolimus (Rapamycin) • Everolimus (RAD-001) • And others, not part of current method (e.g.Mycophenolic Acid (MPA) Current technologies used • Immunoassays • MEIA for SRL & TRL; FPIA & Innofluor® for RAD, CEDIA for SRL, Emit 2000 for TRL, ACMIA for CSA) • LCMS

Why do customer adopt LC/MS/MS for immunosuppressant analysis?
Cost effectiveness (enormous cost savings vs Immunoassays) Specificity vs current immunoassays leading to less false positive results & more accurate quantitation Simultaneous detection and quantitation of 4 or more immunosuppressants, Fast turnaround time (~5 min per sample) New drugs require lower doses- thus higher sensitivity Easy to add new drugs to the list (vs. immunoassays) LC/MS/MS shows excellent reproducibility and dynamic range Very robust assay
