Preclinical pharmacokinetics of a novel anti-c-Met antibody–drug conjugate, SHR-A1403, in rodents and non-human primates

Abstract 1. The in vivo pharmacokinetics (PK) profiles of a novel c-Met antibody–drug conjugate (ADC), SHR-A1403, were investigated and characterized in mice, rats and monkeys. 2. Serum concentrations of ADC and total antibody were detected using validated ELISA methods. The results showed low systemic clearance of both ADC and total antibody in all three species as reflected by gradual decrease in serum concentrations. Half-life (t1/2) of ADC ranged from 4.6 to 11.3 days in the three species. 3. Tissue distribution study in tumor-bearing mice showed high accumulation of 125I-SHR-A1403 in tumor tissues over the other organs/tissues, indicating the favorable safety of SHR-A1403 and characteristics of an ADC drug. 4. Relatively low grade of anti-drug antibody (ADA) in monkeys had no impact on PK profile of the ADC. 5. During discovery stage, undesirable exposure and/or ADA incidence were observed for SHR-A1403 with high or low drug-antibody ratio (DAR), which was DAR = 5 to 6 and DAR = 1, respectively, and therefore prompted selection of an appropriate DAR value (DAR = 2) for SHR-A1403 used in preclinical development and clinical trials. 6. In conclusion, our work demonstrated favorable PK characterization of SHR-A1403, and supported for investigational new drug application (IND) and the ongoing first-in-human trial in the US.
