Abstract

Dicycloplatin, as a new antitumor supramolecule, was considered to have higher solubility and higher stability compared with carboplatin. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the pharmacokinetic characteristics of platinum originating from dicycloplatin. A rapid, sensitive, and specific method with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) has been developed for the determination of platinum in bio-samples. The study was performed in male rats and dogs at a single dose of 10 and 5 mg kg−1 separately by intravenous injection. Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated by non-compartmental method, and the dose of platinum was used in the calculation of these parameters. Results showed that plasma concentrations of platinum began to decrease rapidly initially but decline slowly with a long terminal phase. The mean half-life was 27.39 and 100.98 and clearance was 0.77 and 0.08 L/h/kg for rats and dogs separately. Tissue distribution showed that platinum originating from dicycloplatin had a certain distribution in testis and prostate. Plasma protein binding proportion of platinum was increased with time. In conclusion, this research investigated the pharmacokinetic characteristics including plasma kinetics, tissue distribution, and plasma protein binding of platinum originating from dicycloplatin in rats and dogs in detail for the first time by ICP-MS.
