Hydatidosis is a highly prevalent parasitic zoonosis in the central and southern Andes of Peru. The liver is the most affected organ. The treatment of choice for opportunely diagnosed hepatic hydatidosis is albendazole (ABZ). This is characterized by high doses that last between 3 to 4 months, with a high probability of liver damage. On the other hand, albendazole sulfoxide (ABZSO) is the active metabolite of ABZ, whose measurement in plasma is difficult to implement and validate. Little is known about its levels and the relationship with changes in the hydatid cyst and liver damage. We have posed two research questions: ¿Is liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectroscopy for the measurement of ABZSO in plasma valid according to US Food and Drug Administration standards? and ¿Will the plasma level of ABZSO be related to with hepatic enzyme activity and structural characteristics of cysts in patients with hepatic hydatidosis during oral treatment with albendazole? Investigation 1: The HPLC-MS method for the quantification of ABZSO in human plasma was validated, following the bioanalytical method validation guidelines of the Food and Drug Administration. The assay had a linear response (1-1500 ng/mL, r2=0.999) with a detection limit of 1 ng/mL. ABZSO concentrations at 1, 5, 50, 100, 200, 500, 1000, and 1500 ng/mL had relative standard deviations of 10.4, 8.4, 7.8, 2.9, 7.4, 3.2, 3.4, and 1.3%, respectively. The method was precise with a coefficient of variation of 1.411%, and exact with a bias of -14.7, 2.8 and -0.8% at ABZSO concentrations of 5, 500 and 1000 ng/mL, respectively. The recovery of the method was 89.2%, and the stability after refrigeration for 24 hours had a coefficient of variation of 2.3%. Investigation 2: prospective cohort made up of people with hepatic hydatidosis treated with oral albendazole at a dose of 12.5 mg/kg/day for 3 months. Liver enzyme activity was assessed by measuring alanine and aspartate aminotransferase (ALT and AST), gamma glutamyl transferase (γ-GT) and alkaline phosphatase (FALC); the structural characteristics of the hydatid cyst by abdominal ultrasonography; and the plasma concentration of ABZSO by HPLC-MS. The described parameters were measured before treatment and at 15, 30, 45, 60, 75 and 90 days after starting treatment. We evaluated 13 subjects whose baseline ABZSO levels and on day 90 of treatment ranged from 0.71 ng/mL to 226.8 ng/mL (p<0.05). Median cyst diameter and volume decreased from 32.5 to 31.5 mm (p<0.001) and 15.5 to 15.3 mL (p<0.001), respectively in three patients. ALT, AST, γ-GT, and FALC levels increased (p<0.001) from 17.8 to 48.6 U/L, 21.1 to 55.7 U/L, 15.4 to 42.7 U/L, and 264 to 328.7 U/L, respectively. ABZSO levels were not associated with the structural characteristics of the cyst, but they were significantly associated with the increase in hepatic enzyme activity (p<0.001). We conclude the following: (i) The HPLC-MS method for the quantification of ABZSO in human plasma is valid according to the standards defined by the FDA. The method offers a linear response between 1 and 1500 ng/mL and with a detection limit of 1 ng/mL, and (ii) ABZSO levels are related to ALT, AST, γ-GT and FALC activity; but not with the cystic features.
