IR700, a silicon phthalocyanine (SiPc) photosensitizer, is an antibody-drug conjugate payload used clinically. It is, however, the sole SiPc payload to date, possibly due to the difficulty of its synthesis, resulting from its asymmetric phathalocyanine skeleton. Here we report a new axially-substituted SiPc payload with easier synthesis. Trastuzumab conjugated with the SiPc showed light- and antigen-dependent cytotoxicity in HER2-overexpressed cancer cell lines.

Antibodies, antibody-like molecules, and therapeutics incorporating antibodies as a targeting moiety, such as antibody-drug conjugates, offer significant potential for the development of highly efficacious drugs against a wide range of disorders. Despite some success, truly harnessing the superior targeting properties of these molecules requires a platform from which to effectively identify the best candidates for drug development. To streamline the development of antibody-drug conjugates targeting gynecological cancers within our laboratory, we incorporated surface plasmon resonance analysis (Biacore™ T200) into our development toolkit. Antibodies, selected based on positive ELISA screens as suitable for development as antibody-drug conjugates, were evaluated using surface plasmon resonance to determine a wide range of characteristics including specificity, kinetics/affinity, the effect of linker binding, the impact of the drug to antibody ratio, and the effect of endosomal pH on antibody-antigen binding. Analysis revealed important kinetics data and information regarding the effect of conjugation and endosomal pH on our antibody candidates that correlated with cell toxicity and antibody internalization data. As well as explaining observations from cell-based assays regarding antibody-drug conjugate efficacies, these data also provide important information regarding intelligent antibody selection and antibody-drug conjugate design. This study demonstrates the application of surface plasmon resonance technology as a platform, where detailed information can be obtained, supporting the requirements for rapid and high-throughput screening that will enable enhanced antibody-drug conjugate development.

AbstractBackgroundAntibodies targeting abnormally glycosylated proteins have been ineffective in treating cancer. Antibody-drug conjugates are emerging as an efficient option, which allow specific delivery of drugs into tumors. We and others have dissected the abnormally glycosylated tandem repeat region of MUC1 glycoprotein as three site-specific glycosylated neoantigen peptide motifs (PDTR, GSTA, GVTS) for monoclonal antibody binding.MethodsInternalization of monoclonal antibodies was studied by immunofluorescence staining and colocalization with lysosomal markers in live cells. Antibody positivity in tumor and peritumoral tissue samples were studied by immunohistochemistry. The efficacy of anti-MUC1 ADCs were evaluated with various cancer cell lines and mouse tumor xenograft model.ResultsWe describe an anti-MUC1 ADC by conjugating GSTA neoantigen-specific 16A with monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE). 16A-MMAE showed potent antitumoral efficacy with IC50 ranging from 0.2 to 49.4 nM toward multiple types of cancer cells. In vivo, 16A-MMAE showed dose-dependent inhibition of tumor growth in mouse xenograft of NCI-H838 NSCLC cell line, with minimum effective dose at 1 mg/kg. At the dose of 3 mg/kg, 16A-MMAE did not cause significant toxicity in a transgenic mouse expressing human MUC1.ConclusionsThe high antitumoral efficacy of 16A-MMAE suggest that aberrant glycosylated MUC1 neoantigen is a target with high positivity in multiple cancer types for ADC development. Personalized therapy may be achieved by development of glycosite-specific antibody-drug conjugates.

The development of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) has significantly been advanced in the past decade given the improvement of payloads, linkers and conjugation methods. In particular, linker design plays a critical role in modulating ADC stability in the systemic circulation and payload release efficiency in the tumors, which thus affects ADC pharmacokinetic (PK), efficacy and toxicity profiles. Previously, we have investigated key linker parameters such as conjugation chemistry (e.g., maleimide vs. disulfide), linker length and linker steric hindrance and their impacts on PK and efficacy profiles. Herein, we discuss our perspectives on development of integrated strategies for linker design to achieve a balance between ADC stability and payload release efficiency for desired efficacy in antigen-expressing xenograft models. The strategies have been successfully applied to the design of site-specific THIOMABTM antibody-drug conjugates (TDCs) with different payloads. We also propose to conduct dose fractionation studies to gain guidance for optimal dosing regimens of ADCs in pre-clinical models.

Since the discovery of the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) as an oncogenic driver in a subset of breast cancers and the development of HER2 directed therapies, the prognosis of HER2 amplified breast cancers has increased meaningfully. Next to monoclonal anti-HER2 antibodies and tyrosine kinase inhibitors, the antibody-drug conjugate T-DM1 is a pillar of targeted treatment of advanced HER2-positive breast cancers. Currently, several HER2 directed antibody-drug conjugates are under clinical investigation for HER2 amplified but also HER2 expressing but not amplified breast tumors. In this article, we review the current preclinical and clinical evidence of the investigational drugs A166, ALT-P7, ARX788, DHES0815A, DS-8201a, RC48, SYD985, MEDI4276 and XMT-1522.
