Miniature mass spectrometer–based point-of-care assay for cabotegravir and rilpivirine in whole blood
2022
Overview
HIV prevention and treatment with injectable cabotegravir and/or rilpivirine administered once every 4 to 8 weeks is an attractive alternative to daily therapy. Prescribed dosage and drug concentrations in plasma are based on patient data collected in clinical trials, but actual patients are expected to exhibit more variability in drug concentrations, which is important to quantify. Here, we demonstrate the first quantitative point-of-care assay with a miniature mass spectrometer to assess these drug concentrations in whole blood. Quantitative performance is obtained using paper spray ionization in combination with tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) in the clinically relevant concentration range of both drugs. Limits of quantitation (LoQs) of cabotegravir and rilpivirine are measured to be 750 ng/mL and 20 ng/mL, respectively. The assay turnaround time is < 4 min, and strong linear relationships are established between MS/MS responses and concentration, with percentage of relative standard deviations (RSDs) that are <15% at concentrations above the LoQs. The speed, portability, low power consumption, and specificity offered by the miniature instrument should make it an appropriate platform for measuring drug concentrations in a walk-in clinic using small volumes of patient blood.
