Multiple Reaction Monitoring (MRM) has become a powerful approach for developing diagnostic assays targeting protein biomarkers, owing to its high sensitivity, multiplexing capabilities, and analytical specificity. However, MRM-based mass spectrometry often faces limitations in throughput, flexibility, and assay development time, particularly when screening multiple biomarker candidates. The Stellar™ MS system (Thermo Scientific), utilizing Parallel Reaction Monitoring (PRM), is emerging as a promising LC-MS/MS platform designed to expedite assay development workflows. To evaluate the performance, we compared the brand new PRM to conventional MRM (Triple Quad 6500+) using clinical serum samples (n = 509), addressing two hepatocellular carcinoma biomarkers: alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) and fucosylated AFP. Both methods showed strong calibration linearity for AFP (R² = 0.980) and excellent correlation in AFP quantification (R² = 0.998). Quantification of fucosylated AFP also exhibited high concordance between the two platforms (R² = 0.960). Notably, the Stellar™ MS system enabled completion of PRM-based assays for over 40 additional biomarker candidates within just two weeks. These results demonstrate that the PRM approach delivers quantification performance and clinical relevance comparable to established MRM methodologies. Furthermore, the PRM approach shows great promise as a flexible and time-efficient analytical platform for clinical diagnostics and biomarker discovery. |
