ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) measurement is important for patients with disorders of calcium metabolism, including those needing bone-turnover monitoring due to chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder. There are currently 2 generations of PTH immunoassays on the market, both having cross-reactivity issues and lacking standardization. Therefore, we developed an LC-MS/MS higher-order method for PTH analysis.METHODS:
The method was calibrated against the international standard for 1-84 PTH (WHO 95/646). Antibody-free sample preparation with the addition of an isotope-labeled internal standard was performed by solid-phase extraction. Extracts were analyzed by LC-MS/MS. EDTA-K2 plasma was used throughout the development and validation. Bias and uncertainty sources were tested according to ISO 15193. Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute guidelines and reference measurement procedures were consulted for the design of the validation. Patient samples and external quality controls were compared between LC-MS/MS and 2 third-generation immunoassays.RESULTS:
The method was validated for 1-84 PTH from 5.7 to 872.6â pg/mL. The interassay imprecision was between 1.2% and 3.9%, and the accuracy ranged from 96.2% to 103.2%. The measurement uncertainty was <5.6%. The comparison between LC-MS/MS and the immunoassays showed a proportional bias but moderate to substantial correlation between methods.CONCLUSIONS:
This LC-MS/MS method, which is independent of antibodies, is suitable for a wide range of PTH concentrations. The obtained analytical performance specifications demonstrate that development of a reference measurement procedure will be possible once a higher order reference standard is available.Palavras-chave
