A sample treatment procedure and high-sensitive liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (LC/ESl-MS/MS) method for quantitative determination of fexofenadine in human plasma was developed for a microdose clinical trial with a cold drug, i.e., a non-radioisotope-labeled drug. Fexofenadine and terfenadine, as internal standard, were extracted from plasma samples using a 96-well solid-phase extraction plate (Oasis HLB). Quantitation was performed on an ACQUITY UPLC system and an API 5000 mass spectrometer by multiple reaction monitoring. Chromatographic separation was achieved on an XBridge C 18 column (100 mm x 2.1 mm i.d., particle size 3.5 mu n) using acetonitrile/2 mM ammonium acetate (91:9, v/v) as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.6 ml/min. The analytical method was validated in accordance with the FDA guideline for validation of bioanalytical methods. The calibration curve was linear in the range of 10-1000 pg/ml using 200 mu l of plasma. Analytical method validation for the clinical dose, for which the calibration curve was linear in the range of 1-500 ng/ml using 20 mu l of plasma, was also conducted. Each method was successfully applied for making determinations in plasma using LC/ESI-MS/MS after administration of a microdose (100 mu g solution) and a clinical dose (60 mg dose) in eight healthy volunteers.
