Ranibizumab is an FDA-approved drug used to treat wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD), diabetic retinopathy, macular edema, and myopic choroidal neovascularization. Bevacizumab is another drug often used off-label to treat wet AMD. In order to reduce unwanted angiogenesis, ranibizumab and bevacizumab target circulating VEGF-A in the eye. Concentration levels in human vitreous and aqueous humor can be used to provide valuable efficacy information. However, vitreous and aqueous humor's aqueous environment, and vitreous humor's viscosity, as well as the stickiness of the analytes can provide bioanalytical challenges. In this manuscript, we describe the development, optimization, and fit-for-purpose validation of an LC-HRMS method designed for intact quantitative bioanalysis of ranibizumab and bevacizumab in human vitreous and aqueous humor following intravitreal administration. In order to fully develop this method, evaluations were conducted to optimize the conditions, including the data processing model (extracted ion chromatograms (XICs) vs deconvolution), carryover mitigation, sample preparation scheme optimization for surrogate and primary matrices, use of internal standard/immunocapture/deglycosylation, and optimization of the extraction and dilution procedure, as well as optimization of the liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry conditions. Once the method was fully optimized, a fit-for-purpose validation was conducted, including matrix parallelism, with a linear calibration range of 10 to 200 µg/mL. The development of this intact quantitative method using LC-HRMS provides a proof-of-concept template for challenging, but valuable new and exciting bioanalytical techniques.
