Abstract

Knowledge about the cytochrome P450 (CYP) inhibition potential of new drug candidates is important for drug development because of its risk of interactions. For novel psychoactive substances (NPS), corresponding data are not available. For developing a general drug inhibition cocktail assay, a liquid-chromatography high-resolution tandem mass spectrometry multi-analyte approach was developed and validated for quantifying low concentrations of O-diethyl phenacetin for CYP 1A2, 7-hydroxy coumarin for CYP 2A6, 4-hydroxy bupropion for CYP 2B6, N-diethyl amodiaquine for CYP 2C8, 4-hydroxy diclofenac for CYP 2C9, 5-hydroxy omeprazole for CYP 2C19, O-dimethyl dextromethorphan for CYP 2D6, 6-hydroxy chlorzoxazone for CYP 2E1, and 6-beta-hydroxy testosterone for CYP 3A in the incubation mixture in the presence of substrates and inhibitors. The tested matrix effects ranged from 63 to 141 % and the recoveries from 95 to 110 %. Time-saving one-point calibration allowed sufficient quantification, although some of the validation results for 7-hydroxy coumarin, 4-hydroxy bupropion, 4-hydroxy diclofenac, and 6-beta-hydroxy testosterone were outside the acceptance criteria (AC) but without influence of the IC50 calculation. Validation showed also that the approach was sensitive and selective using mass spectral multiplexing. In conclusion, the presented assay was suitable for the quantification of the model substrate metabolites and could be used for the development of a CYP inhibition assay for testing most CYPs and a wide range of drugs of abuse.
