Amyloid-related imaging abnormalities (ARIA), side effects of anti-amyloid drugs seen in magnetic resonance imaging of the brain, are a major safety concern in patients with Alzheimer's disease. We developed an antibody transport vehicle (ATV) targeting transferrin receptor (TfR) for brain delivery of anti-amyloid-β protein (anti-Aβ) using asymmetrical Fc mutations (ATV) that mitigates TfR-related liabilities and retains effector function when bound to Aβ. Administration of ATV:Aβ in mice exhibited broad brain distribution and enhanced parenchymal plaque target engagement. This biodistribution reduced ARIA-like lesions and vascular inflammation. Taken together, ATV has the potential to improve the next generation of Aβ immunotherapy through enhanced biodistribution mediated by transport across the blood-brain barrier.
淀粉样蛋白相关成像异常(ARIA)是在大脑磁共振成像中观察到的抗淀粉样蛋白药物的副作用,是阿尔茨海默病患者的一个主要安全问题。我们开发了一种靶向转铁蛋白受体(TfR)的抗体转运载体(ATV),用于将抗淀粉样β蛋白(抗Aβ)递送至大脑,该载体使用不对称Fc突变(ATV),可减轻与TfR相关的不良反应,并在与Aβ结合时保留效应功能。在小鼠中给予ATV:Aβ显示出广泛的脑部分布,并增强了实质斑块靶向结合。这种生物分布减少了ARIA样病变和血管炎症。综上所述,ATV有可能通过增强血脑屏障转运介导的生物分布来改善下一代Aβ免疫疗法。
