OBJECTIVE: To establish a method for the determination of clopidogrel in human plasma, and to study the bioequvivalence of 2 kinds of Clopidogrel hydrogen sulfate tablets. METHODS: 60 healthy male volunteers were randomly divided into group A, B, C and D. By four cycles repeated cross-over design, they were given fasting (group A and B) and postprandial (group C and D) test or reference preparation 75 mg. The concentration of clopidogrel in human plasma was determined by LC-MS/MS. Using diazepam as internal standard, Ultimate XB-C18 column was adopted with mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-0.05% formic acid (84 ∶ 16,V/V). Positive ion detection was conducted in MRM mode, and monitoring transition ion-pair was m/z 322.00→212.00 for clopidogrel and m/z 285.00→154.00 for internal standard. Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated by using DAS 3.2.8 software, and two-way and unilateral t test and non-parameters test were used to investigate the bioequivalence of two preparations. RESULTS: The linear rang of clopidogrel was 20-5 000 pg/ml. The pharmacokinetic parameters of test preparation or reference preparation after fasting oral administration were as follows: tmax were(0.850±0.356) and (0.764±0.336)h; cmax were (1 514.550± 1 120.469) and (1 506.900±1 054.008)pg/ml; t1/2 were (4.036±3.615) and (4.056±4.193)h; AUC0-t were (2 721.814±2 062.832) and (2 826.051±2 526.683) pg·h/ml. Those of test preparation or reference preparation after postprandial oral administration were as follows: tmax were (1.513±0.709) and (1.558±0.743)h; cmax were (5 219.509±2 711.907) and (5 520.337±3 336.664) pg/ml; t1/2 were (5.800±4.729) and (5.513±4.206)h; AUC0-t were (10 890.81±4 101.357)and(11 350.653±4 174.848) pg·h/ml. Under two kinds of condition, 90%CI of AUC0-t, AUC0-∞ and cmax of test preparations were 80%-125% of corresponding parameters of reference preparations, there was no statistical significance in tmax between two preparations(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The method is rapid, sensitive with no endogenous interference. Two tablets are bioequivalent.
