Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) can be engineered to have “extended half‐life” and “catch and release” properties to improve target coverage. We have developed a mAb physiologically‐based pharmacokinetic model that describes intracellular trafficking, neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) recycling, and nonspecific clearance of mAbs. We extended this model to capture target binding as a function of target affinity, expression, and turnover. For mAbs engineered to have an extended half‐life, the model was able to accurately predict the terminal half‐life (82% within 2‐fold error of the observed value) in the human FcRn transgenic (Tg32) homozygous mouse and human. The model also accurately captures the trend in pharmacokinetic and target coverage data for a set of mAbs with differing catch and release properties in the Tg32 mouse. The mechanistic nature of this model allows us to explore different engineering techniques early in drug discovery, potentially expanding the number of “druggable” targets.

Matrix metalloproteinase-13 (MMP-13) is a zinc-dependent protease responsible for the cleavage of type II collagen, the major structural protein of articular cartilage. Degradation of this cartilage matrix leads to the development of osteoarthritis. We previously have described highly potent and selective carboxylic acid containing MMP-13 inhibitors; however, nephrotoxicity in preclinical toxicology species precluded development. The accumulation of compound in the kidneys mediated by human organic anion transporter 3 (hOAT3) was hypothesized as a contributing factor for the finding. Herein we report our efforts to optimize the MMP-13 potency and pharmacokinetic properties of non-carboxylic acid leads resulting in the identification of compound 43a lacking the previously observed preclinical toxicology at comparable exposures.
This double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, dose-ascending, first-in-human study (NCT02766621) assessed the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of PF-06823859, an anti-interferon β monoclonal antibody. Healthy subjects were randomized to single ascending doses (SADs) of intravenous PF-06823859 30, 100, 300, 900, or 2000 mg or placebo; to multiple ascending doses (MADs) of subcutaneous PF-06823859 100 or 300 mg or placebo (once every 2 weeks for a total of 3 doses); or to MAD of intravenous PF-06823859 600 mg or placebo (once every 3 weeks or once every 4 weeks for a total of 2 doses). The incidence, severity, and causal relationship of adverse events (AEs) were assessed, along with immunogenicity and PK. In total, 62 subjects were randomized to treatment (SAD, n = 35; MAD, n = 27). There were 76 treatment-emergent all-causality AEs in the SAD (PF-06823859: n = 25; placebo: n = 4) and MAD (PF-06823859: n = 40; placebo: n = 7) cohorts. In the SAD cohorts, all treatment-emergent all-causality AEs were mild in severity; 4 AEs of moderate severity were identified in the MAD cohorts. No dose-limiting AEs, serious AEs, treatment-related discontinuations, dose reductions, or deaths occurred. PF-06823859 exposure increased dose-proportionally, with half-life values ranging between 23 and 35 days. The estimated subcutaneous bioavailability was 43% to 44%. Immunogenicity incidence rates were low (antidrug antibodies, 12.5%; neutralizing antibodies, 2.1%). No immunogenically related clinical responses of concern were observed. In conclusion, PF-06823859 demonstrated an acceptable safety, tolerability, and PK profile that supports clinical development for treating disorders associated with increased interferon β levels, such as dermatomyositis or systemic lupus erythematosus.

Potent covalent inhibitors of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) based on an aminopyrazole carboxamide scaffold have been identified. Compared to acrylamide-based covalent reactive groups leading to irreversible protein adducts, cyanamide-based reversible-covalent inhibitors provided the highest combined BTK potency and EGFR selectivity. The cyanamide covalent mechanism with BTK was confirmed through enzyme kinetic, NMR, MS, and X-ray crystallographic studies. The lead cyanamide-based inhibitors demonstrated excellent kinome selectivity and rat pharmacokinetic properties.
