GNbAC1 is a humanized IgG4 monoclonal antibody antagonist of Mulitple Sclerosis Retrovirus Envelope (MSRV-Env), a protein that could play a critical role in multiple sclerosis. This randomized placebo-controlled dose-escalation study evaluated the safety and pharmacokinetics of GNbAC1 in 21 healthy volunteers after single intravenous infusion at doses of 6, 18 and 36 mg/kg. Lumbar punctures were performed at days 2, 15 or 29 to measure GNbAC1 concentrations in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). GNbAC1 was well tolerated. Serum data show a dose-linear pharmacokinetics. A mean CSF/serum ratio of 0.12% was observed at Day 2, increasing to 0.39% at Day 15 and 0.42% at Day 29. Linear regression analysis shows a relationship between GNbAC1 CSF/serum ratio and albumin CSF/serum ratio and a relationship at the limit of statistical significance with the timing of CSF sampling.

PURPOSE: Heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor (HB-EGF) is a member of the EGF family and is an important therapeutic target in some types of human cancers. KHK2866 is a humanized anti-HB-EGF monoclonal antibody IgG that neutralizes HB-EGF activity by inhibiting the binding of HB-EGF to its receptors. The phase I study of KHK2866 was discontinued because of neuropsychiatric toxicity. In this study, the pharmacokinetics of KHK2866 was evaluated by (89)Zr-immuno-PET study and the determination of drug concentrations in serum and cerebrospinal fluid using cynomolgus monkeys was performed in order to predict neurotoxicity in a reverse-translational manner. METHODS: KHK2866 was radiolabeled with (89)Zr for preclinical evaluations in normal cynomolgus monkeys and its distribution was analyzed. Furthermore, as a separate study, KHK2866 concentrations in serum and cerebrospinal fluid were determined after administration of a single dose. RESULTS: PET studies with monkeys revealed (89)Zr-KHK2866 accumulation in the liver, spleen and joints of multiple parts, but not in brain. In addition, the pharmacokinetic analyses in serum and CSF demonstrated a low penetration of KHK2866 into the brain. CONCLUSIONS: These studies indicate the difficulty of prediction for neuropsychiatric toxicity of monoclonal antibodies in human by means of pharmacokinetic evaluations using cynomolgus monkeys.
