A
selective and accurate high pressure liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) method has
been developed and validated for simultaneous monitoring of Aripiprazole and its active metabolite Dehydroaripiprazole
in human plasma using aripiprazole-d8 as the internal standard (IS). The analytes and IS were extracted from 200 µL of
human plasma by solid-phase extraction using Oasis PRiME HLB 96-well µElution Plate, 3 mg sorbent per well (Waters,
Madrid, Spain). Separations were carried out at 25°C in an ACE C18-PFP column (4.6 mm×100 mm and 3-μm particle size
(SYMTA, Madrid, Spain) protected by a 0.2-μm on-line filter. The mobile phase consisted of a combination of 0.2% formic
acid and 0.3% ammonia in MilliQ water pH=4.0 (solution A) and ACN (solution B) (65:35, v/v). The chromatogram was run
under gradient conditions at a flow rate of 0.6 mL/min. Run time was 5 min followed by a re-equilibration time of 3 min, to
give a total run time of 8 min. The volume injected into the chromatographic system was 5 μL. The analytes were detected
using the mode multiple reaction monitoring in the positive ionization mode. The linearity of the method was established
in the concentration range 0.15-110 ng/mL and 0.35-100 ng/mL for Aripiprazole and Dehydroaripiprazole, respectively. We
validated the analytical method according to the recommendations of regulatory agencies through tests of precision, accuracy,
recovery, matrix effect, stability, sensitivity and selectivity. The method was applied to 6 different bioequivalence studies of 10
mg aripiprazole formulation in 40 healthy Caucasian subjects.
