Norcantharidin (NCTD), the demethylated analogue of cantharidin, inhibits the proliferation of a variety of human tumor cell lines, and appears to cause the least nephrotoxic and inflammatory side effects. Although NCTD has been used to treat human cancers in China for years, there is no report regarding its metabolism up to now. This is the first report to separate and identify the main metabolites of NCTD in vivo by GC–MS using TMS derivatives. Two hydrolyzed products and five phase I or phase II metabolites were found in rat by the chromatogram comparisons of the blank with incurred biological samples. Multiple stages of fragmentation patterns were used to confirm the metabolites characterizations. The established GC–MS method can also be applied to identifying unknown metabolites of the drugs containing hydroxyl or carbonyl groups in molecular structure.
