OBJECTIVES: Primidone is an anticonvulsive drug used in the treatment of epilepsy and essential tremor. It offers beneficial effects in controlling seizures, but its usage is also associated with possible side effects. To ensure optimal therapy, it is crucial to measure its concentration through accurate quantification methods. Therefore, our main goal was to develop and validate a new reference measurement procedure (RMP) for accurately measuring primidone levels in human serum and plasma.
METHODS: In our study, we focused on the separation of primidone from both known and unknown interferences using a C18 column. To achieve accurate sample preparation, we developed a protocol involving protein precipitation followed by a high dilution step. The validation of the assay and determination of measurement uncertainty were carried out following guidelines from organizations such as the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute, the International Conference on Harmonization, and the Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement. These rigorous validation processes ensure the reliability and accuracy of our method for quantifying primidone levels in human serum and plasma samples.
RESULTS: The RMP was shown to be highly selective and specific, with no evidence of matrix interference. It can be used to quantify primidone in the range of 0.150-30.0 μg/mL. Intermediate precision was less than 4.0 %, and repeatability CV ranged from 1.0 to 3.3 % across all concentration levels. The relative mean bias ranged from 0.1 to 3.9 % for native serum levels, and from -2.6 to 2.8 % for lithium-heparin plasma levels. The measurement uncertainties for single measurements and target value assignment were 1.5-4.1 % and 0.9-1.0 %, respectively.
CONCLUSIONS: In this study, we introduce an innovative LC-MS/MS-based candidate RMP specifically designed for primidone in human serum and plasma. Our RMP offers a traceable platform, facilitating the standardization of routine assays and enabling the evaluation of clinically relevant samples. With this novel approach, we aim to enhance the accuracy and reliability of primidone measurements, ultimately benefiting the field of clinical research and patient care.
