Abstract

Alectinib and its metabolite, M4, have demonstrated a satisfactory clinical therapeutic effect in the treatment of anaplastic lymphoma kinase-positive advanced non-small-cell lung cancer. Due to individual differences among patients, therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) is critical for guaranteeing appropriate clinical drug use. To realize TDM for alectinib and its metabolite, M4, a honeycomb phenol-formaldehyde resin (PFR) with excellent hydrophilic properties, abundant adsorption force, and a stable porous structure was synthesized by modifying the porogens F127 and P123. The prepared PFR was employed as an adsorbent in a simple and efficient spin-column solid-phase extraction (SPE) process. A rapid method for detecting alectinib and its metabolite M4 in urine was thereby established. The established method showed a linear range of 0.0200 μg mL-1-5.00 μg mL-1 and the recovery range of 98.8-103% for spiked urine samples, with relative standard deviations of ≤ 4.87% (n = 3). Our results proved the practicability of the proposed honeycomb-PFR spin-column SPE method in TDM for alectinib and its metabolite, M4.
