| Abstract | Background: Presently, antibody concentration measurements for patients undergoing treatment are predominantly determined by ELISA, which still comes with known disadvantages. Therefore, our aim was to establish a targeted mass-spectrometric assay enabling the reproducible absolute quantification of peptides from the hypervariable and interaction regions of infliximab. Methods: Peptides of infliximab were measured post-trypsin digestion and subsequent separation on a Vanquish Horizon UHPLC coupled to a TSQ Altis Triple-Quad mass spectrometer. Normalization and absolute quantification were conducted using stable isotope-synthesized peptides. Calibration curves covering a range of 0.25-50 µg/ml were employed for quantitation. Results: We demonstrated the substantial influence of peptide selection, choice of hydrolase for digestion, and digestion time on absolute peptide yield (28-44% for peptide 1 and 64-97% for peptide 2). Furthermore, we showed that the generated calibration curves for absolute quantification were highly reproducible and robust (LLOQ1 0.72 µg/ml and LLOQ2 1.00 µg/ml) over several months. In comparison to ELISA values, the absolute values obtained by mass spectrometry often yielded lower results for both targeted peptides. Conclusions: In this study, a semi-automated workflow was employed and tested with 8 patients and corresponding replicates (n = 3-4). We demonstrated the robust implementation of calibration curves for the absolute quantification of infliximab in patient samples, with coefficients of variation ranging from 0.5 to 9%. Taken together, we have developed a platform enabling the rapid (2 days of sample preparation and 30 min of measurement time per sample) and robust quantification of Infliximab antibody concentration in patients. The use of mass spectrometry also facilitates the straightforward expansion of the method to include additional antibody peptides. |
