This work revealed that the interactions between starch, the ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate ([Emim][OAc]), and water might contribute to the phase transition (gelatinization, dissolution, or both) of native starch at reduced temperature. Using mixtures of water and [Emim][OAc] at certain ratios (7.2/1 and 10.8/1 mol/mol), both the gelatinization and dissolution of the starch occur competitively, but also in a synergistic manner. At lower [Emim][OAc] concentration (water/[Emim][OAc] molar ratio≥25.0/1), mainly gelatinization occurs which is slightly impeded by the strong interaction between water and [Emim][OAc]; while at higher [Emim][OAc] concentration (water/[Emim][OAc] molar ratio≤2.8/1), the dissolution of starch is the major form of phase transition, possibly restricted by the difficulty of [Emim][OAc] to interact with starch.

CD22 represents a promising target for antibody-drug conjugate therapy in the context of B cell malignancies since it rapidly internalizes, importing specifically bound antibodies with it. To determine the pharmacokinetic parameters of anti-CD22-MCC-DM1 and MC-MMAF conjugates, various approaches to quantifying total and conjugated antibody were investigated. Although the total antibody assay formats gave similar results for both conjugates, the mouse pharmacokinetic profile for the anti-CD22-MCC-DM1 and MC-MMAF appeared significantly different depending on the conjugated antibody assay format. Since these differences significantly impacted the PK parameters determination, we investigated the effect of the drug/antibody ratio on the total and conjugated antibody quantification using multiple assay formats. Our investigations revealed the limitations of some assay formats to quantify anti-CD22-MCC-DM1 and MC-MMAF with different drug load and in the context of a heterogeneous ADC population highlight the need to carefully plan the assay strategy for the total and conjugated antibody quantification in order to accurately determine the ADC PK parameters.

VEGF-A is important in tumor angiogenesis, and a humanized anti-VEGF-A monoclonal antibody (bevacizumab) has been approved by the FDA as a treatment for metastatic colorectal and nonsquamous, non-small-cell lung cancer in combination with chemotherapy. However, contributions of both tumor- and stromal-cell derived VEGF-A to vascularization of human tumors grown in immunodeficient mice hindered direct comparison between the pharmacological effects of anti-VEGF antibodies with different abilities to block host VEGF. Therefore, by gene replacement technology, we engineered mice to express a humanized form of VEGF-A (hum-X VEGF) that is recognized by many anti-VEGF antibodies and has biochemical and biological properties comparable with WT mouse and human VEGF-A. The hum-X VEGF mouse model was then used to compare the activity and safety of a panel of VEGF Mabs with different affinities for VEGF-A. Although in vitro studies clearly showed a correlation between binding affinity and potency at blocking endothelial cell proliferation stimulated by VEGF, in vivo experiments failed to document any consistent correlation between antibody affinity and the ability to inhibit tumor growth and angiogenesis in most animal models. However, higher-affinity antibodies were more likely to result in glomerulosclerosis during long-term treatment.
