Abstract

The authors have developed and verified the precision and accuracy of new automated cloned enzyme donor immunoassays (CEDIA) for haloperidol and bromperidol, and cross-validations have been performed with conventional semiautomated EIA kits (MARKIT-M) and high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) methods. The CEDIA method provides a quick (about 10 minutes) assay for haloperidol or bromperidol, requiring no serum/plasma pretreatment or predilution. The CEDIA haloperidol/bromperidol assay showed little or no cross reactivity with either their metabolites or many drugs commonly coprescribed. MARKIT-M revealed considerable cross reactivity values proportional to the spiked amounts of reduced metabolites. Precision, accuracy, recovery, and linearity testing for the CEDIA assay were all sufficient for clinical use. Significant linear correlations were found between CEDIA and HPLC in measuring haloperidol (CEDIA = 1.06 x HPLC + 0.869; n = 44, rs = 0.913, P < 0.001) and bromperidol (CEDIA = 1.06 x HPLC + 0.606; n = 56, rs = 0.914, P < 0.001) concentrations. This study has, therefore, demonstrated that the CEDIA assay has a quick run time with high precision and accuracy, and this method is a useful tool for the TDM of haloperidol or bromperidol.
