Mycophenolic Acid

Mycophenolic Acid Glucuronide

Clinical relevance

Mycophenolic acid (MPA) is used as an immunosuppressant agent to prevent organ transplant rejection. MPA selectively inhibits the synthesis of purines and specifically reduces the growth of B- and T-lymphocytes. Furthermore, MPA is also used to treat autoimmune diseases such as psoriasis, systemic lupus erythematosus or scleroderma.

Therapeutic monitoring of MPA in the blood is required to adjust individual concentrations within the therapeutic window and to attain a favourable ratio between therapeutic effects and side effects. Currently available drugs contain mycophenolate mofetil or mycophenolate sodium, which are both completely metabolised into the active metabolite MPA. For excretion, MPA is bound to glucuronic acid.

This parameter set allows the quantitative determination of mycophenolic acid and its metabolite mycophenolic acid glucuronide in human serum or plasma samples by LC-MS/MS.
It is intended as a therapeutic drug monitoring test, medically indicated for patients treated with mycophenolate mofetil or mycophenolate sodium.
