Pharmacokinetic Considerations for Antibody-Drug Conjugates against Cancer

Abstract: Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are ushering in the next era of targeted therapy against cancer. An ADC for cancer therapy consists of a potent cytotoxic payload that is attached to a tumour-targeted antibody by a chemical linker, usually with an average drug-to-antibody ratio (DAR) of 3.5-4. The theory is to deliver potent cytotoxic payloads directly to tumour cells while sparing healthy cells. However, practical application has proven to be more difficult. At present there are only two ADCs approved for clin… Show more

“…S1). Nonspecific binding as well as macrophage uptake, as previously observed with some mAbs (36,37), may also play a role in the observed accumulation in the spleen, in addition to possible aggregation/complexation. Variable accumulation of radioactivity in the spleen as a consequence of variable aggregation could possibly explain the non-dose-related lymphopenia observed.…”

“…Significant overlap in the distribution of pola exposure exists, with the magnitude of differences being within the inter-individual variability of each analyte in the current study. These observations are not unexpected given the moderate inter-individual variability in exposure seen across other ADCs [46,47].…”

“…ADCs are large molecules (∼150 kDa) typically administered systemically by intravenous (IV) infusion ( Malik et al, 2017 ). After systemic administration, the distribution of the intact ADC is generally confined to the plasma, interstitial fluid, and lymph ( Han and Zhao, 2014 ).…”

“…After systemic administration, the distribution of the intact ADC is generally confined to the plasma, interstitial fluid, and lymph ( Han and Zhao, 2014 ). They often possess long plasma residence times because of their dynamic interactions with the FcRn ( Garg and Balthasar, 2007 ) and are therefore administered intermittently, typically once every 1–4 weeks ( Malik et al, 2017 ). In most, but not all cases, ADCs exhibit nonlinear PK and dose-dependent clearance due to saturable target binding and elimination ( Levy, 1994 ).…”
