Semi-mechanistic Population Pharmacokinetic Model of Multivalent Trastuzumab Emtansine in Patients with Metastatic Breast Cancer

Abstract: Trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) is an antibody–drug conjugate (ADC) composed of multiple molecules of the antimicrotubule agent DM1 linked to trastuzumab, a humanized anti–human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) monoclonal antibody. Pharmacokinetics data from phase I (n = 52) and phase II (n = 111) studies in HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer patients show a shorter terminal half-life for T-DM1 than for total trastuzumab (TTmAb). In this work, we translated prior preclinical modeling in monkeys to d… Show more

“…5), this validated method may be highly valuable for a better assessment of the PK behavior of the dosed antibody drug conjugate, especially for ADC with cleavable linker and non active naked antibody. Those actual results are in good agreement with those of semi-mechanistic population pharmacokinetic model-predicted concentrations of unconjugated trastuzumab, showing slow formation of naked Ab following deconjugation of T-DM1, in patients with metastatic breast cancer (Chudasama et al, 2012). The measure of the naked antibody should allow to better characterize the non active circulating entities that may compete on the target binding sites with the active ADC.…”

“…Additionally, the presence of multiple ADC species that potentially could be generated in an in vivo setting, as a result of partial deconjugation of the payload, will need to be considered when these approaches are employed for evaluation of target capacity (39). This point is a critical consideration as different ADC species, with varying degrees of drug loading, may potentially have different biodistribution, elimination, and efficacy profiles under in vivo conditions (47)(48)(49).…”

“…This approximation is frequently made to describe the pharmacokinetics of mAbs in case of nonlinear shape of terminal elimination and has been used for 23 therapeutic antibodies in 28 studies (table 1). In the 18 studies where "full" Michaelis-Menten model is used [56][57][58][59][60][61][62][63][64][65][66][67][68][69][70][71][72] , VM and KM values are highly variable between studies, VM and KM ranges being 0.008-26.4 mg/day and 0.02-33.9 mg/L, respectively. However, the Michaelis-Menten term has been used in simplified forms.…”
