  • Volumetric absorptive microsampling for the therapeutic drug monitoring of psychiatric patients treated with cariprazine
    Millán-Santiago, Jaime ...
    Psychiatric disorders are usually treated with antipsychotic agents belonging to different pharmacological and chemical classes, the most recent ones collectively known as “third-generation ... antipsychotics”, such as cariprazine, approved in 2015 for the treatment of patients affected by schizophrenia. For these patients, a frequent therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) becomes essential to assess compliance and to optimise and personalise their therapy, also due to cariprazine interindividual variability and narrow therapeutic range. In this study, a bioanalytical method featuring miniaturised sampling and pretreatment was developed, based on volumetric absorptive microsampling (VAMS) for TDM of psychiatric patients under cariprazine treatment and compared to a classic, reference method based on fluid plasma analysis. Minimally invasive whole blood VAMS was coupled to an original instrumental method based on ultra-high performance liquid chromatography hyphenated to mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS). A feasible and streamlined, yet reliable VAMS pretreatment protocol was carefully optimised and the VAMS-UHPLC-MS methodology was validated with satisfactory results in terms of linearity (r2 > 0.9970 in the 1.5-100 ng/mL range), precision (%RSD < 11.7), extraction yield (> 90.0%) and matrix effect (RE% 8.2-10.9%). Finally, the microsampling approach coupled to UHPLC-MS was successfully applied to the TDM of psychiatric patients treated with cariprazine and compared with standard fluid plasma analysis, providing reliable quali-quantitative results, and proving to be readily applicable to the clinical practice in TDM programs as a useful alternative to cariprazine plasma analysis. This is the first report of a successful microsampling application, and in particular the first report of VAMS application, for the TDM of cariprazine.
