Accurate quantitation and pharmacokinetic monitoring of t-mAbs in serum are essential, but current methods like ligand binding assays (LBAs) and bottom-up peptide liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) can lack the sensitivity and specificity needed to meet clinical demands. Emerging techniques using high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) in top-down and middle-up approaches offer improved ability to accurately quantify mAb proteoforms apart from degradation products by keeping the sample proteins intact or minimizing digestion.
