Physiologically-based modeling of monoclonal antibody pharmacokinetics in drug discovery and development

Abstract: Over the past few decades, monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have become one of the most important and fastest growing classes of therapeutic molecules, with applications in a wide variety of disease areas. As such, understanding of the determinants of mAb pharmacokinetic (PK) processes (absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination) is crucial in developing safe and efficacious therapeutics. In the present review, we discuss the use of physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models as an approach to c… Show more

“…Smaller Vp could be indicative of higher peripheral concentration that may influence efficacy. Further evaluation of VRC01 or similar mAbs for HIV prevention may warrant physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modelling to understand PK features at the target tissue-level [37] .…”

“…During subcutaneous absorption, antibodies are usually well absorbed (bioavailability of 50% to 100%), and this process has been simply described through administration of mAbs to the interstitial space of the skin in published PBPK models, mainly because there is low confidence in parameters as rate of fluid flows from injection site through the lymphatics to the circulation and the expression of FcRn in cells present in the lymphatics and lymph nodes 33 as it is generally accepted that the predominant route of absorption of antibody therapeutics following subcutaneous administration is via the lymphatics. 38 Understanding of determinants of BsAb disposition is crucial for the development of PBPK models.…”

“…The elimination of antibodies is mainly via catabolism following endocytosis and transport to the lysosome, with the binding to FcRn playing a role as a protective pathway from degradation and recycling. In PBPK models, FcRn‐mediated protection of IgG is typically described as occurring within the endosomes of the vascular endothelium and requires data describing FcRn expression and the rate of uptake into endothelial cells 33 . TMDD can happen because of the high‐affinity interaction between antibody and target, and parameters such as target expression, target turnover, and target accessibility are also needed.…”

“…[33][34][35] As reviewed previously, PBPK models have a central role in informing the rational design/discovery and development of monoclonal antibody therapeutics. 36 Unlike simple monoclonal antibodies that are designed to bind a single antigen, bispecific antibodies engage 2 distinct molecular targets, requiring more extensive "systems" knowledge to construct models that capture sequential binding to the 2 targets and impact biological variability in system parameters for both targets on downstream pharmacology. Gibbs et al present a comprehensive overview of the considerations in developing PBPK-PD models for bispecific antibodies.…”
