Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) bring superior efficacy and safety profiles to the clinic by harnessing the power of biologics and chemotherapy. Despite numerous ADCs at different preclinical and clinical stages, homogeneous ADC with increased numbers of payloads conjugated at specific positions are still desired for enhanced pharmacological properties. To generate site-specifically conjugated ADCs with greater drug-to-antibody ratios (DARs), monoclonal antibodies targeting prostate-specific membrane antigens (PSMA) were genetically fused with tandem CD38 enzymes, a member of the ADP-ribosyl cyclase family. The resulting antibody-CD38 fusions coupled with its dinucleotide substrate-derived drug linker facilitate generation of ADP-ribosyl cyclase-enable ADCs (ARC-ADCs) carrying 2, 4, 6, and 8 tubulin inhibitors. In vitro and in vivo studies indicated highly potent and selective cytotoxicity against human PSMA-expressing prostate cancer cells for the anti-PSMA ARC-ADC with a DAR of 6. This proof-of-concept study demonstrates feasibility of producing site-specific ARC-ADCs with increased DARs by tandemly fused CD38 and generates candidate ADCs for targeting prostate tumors.
抗体药物偶联物(ADC)通过利用生物制剂和化疗的力量,为临床带来了卓越的疗效和安全性。尽管有许多处于不同临床前和临床阶段的ADC,但仍需要在特定位置连接更多有效载荷的均质ADC,以增强药理特性。为了生成具有更高药物与抗体比率(DAR)的位点特异性偶联ADC,将靶向前列腺特异性膜抗原(PSMA)的单克隆抗体与串联CD38酶(ADP-核糖基环化酶家族的一员)进行基因融合。所得的抗体-CD38融合物与其二核苷酸底物衍生的药物连接子相结合,有助于生成携带2、4、6和8种微管蛋白抑制剂的ADP-核糖基环化酶启用型ADC(ARC-ADC)。体外和体内研究表明,DAR为6的抗PSMA ARC-ADC对表达人PSMA的前列腺癌细胞具有高效且选择性的细胞毒性。这项概念验证研究证明了通过串联融合CD38生成具有增加DAR的位点特异性ARC-ADC的可行性,并生成了用于靶向前列腺肿瘤的候选ADC。
