Quantitative MALDI Mass Spectrometry Imaging (QSMI) can be used to determine drug distribution in first-in-human studies

At WRIB 2023, Shane Karnik, Senior Laboratory Director at Aliri, presented a poster about utilizing QSMI to determine Bimiralizib distribution in human skin biopsies.

Recent clinical trial results validate Bimiralizib distribution in human skin and showcase:

  • Robustness of MALDI MSI method 
  • Approach not limited to dermatology; already applied in oncology
  • Absolute quantification allowed to determine if the compound reached the site of action  
  • Method allows to characterize small compound PK in clinical trial
  • Method allows the characterization of the target engagement
