Targeting And Pharmacology Of An Anti-Il13r Alpha 2 Antibody And Antibody-Drug Conjugate In A Melanoma Xenograft Model
MABS(2021)
摘要
IL13R alpha 2 is a cell surface tumor antigen that is overexpressed in multiple tumor types. Here, we studied biodistribution and targeting potential of an anti-IL13R alpha 2 antibody (Ab) and anti-tumor activity of anti-IL13R alpha 2-antibody-drug conjugate (ADC). The anti-IL13R alpha 2 Ab was labeled with fluorophore AF680 or radioisotope Zr-89 for in vivo tracking using fluorescence molecular tomography (FMT) or positron emission tomography (PET) imaging, respectively. Both imaging modalities showed that the tumor was the major uptake site for anti-IL13R alpha 2-Ab, with peak uptake of 5-8% ID and 10% ID/g as quantified from FMT and PET, respectively. Pharmacological in vivo competition with excess of unlabeled anti-IL13R alpha 2-Ab significantly reduced the tumor uptake, indicative of antigen-specific tumor accumulation. Further, FMT imaging demonstrated similar biodistribution and pharmacokinetic profiles of an auristatin-conjugated anti-IL13R alpha 2-ADC as compared to the parental Ab. Finally, the anti-IL13R alpha 2-ADC exhibited a dose-dependent anti-tumor effect on A375 xenografts, with 90% complete responders at a dose of 3 mg/kg. Taken together, both FMT and PET showed a favorable biodistribution profile for anti-IL13R alpha 2-Ab/ADC, along with antigen-specific tumor targeting and excellent therapeutic efficacy in the A375 xenograft model. This work shows the great potential of this anti-IL13R alpha 2-ADC as a targeted anti-cancer agent.
