Abstract
Radiotheranostics is a rapidly growing approach in personalized medicine, merging diagnostic imaging and targeted radiotherapy to allow for the precise detection and treatment of diseases, notably cancer. Radiolabeled antibodies have become indispensable tools in the field of cancer theranostics due to their high specificity and affinity for cancer-associated antigens, which allows for accurate targeting with minimal impact on surrounding healthy tissues, enhancing therapeutic efficacy while reducing side effects, immune-modulating ability, and versatility and flexibility in engineering and conjugation. However, there are inherent limitations in using antibodies as a platform for radiopharmaceuticals due to their natural activities within the immune system, large size preventing effective tumor penetration, and relatively long half-life with concerns for prolonged radioactivity exposure. Antibody engineering can solve these challenges while preserving the many advantages of the immunoglobulin framework. In this review, the goal is to give a general overview of antibody engineering and design for tumor radiotheranostics. Particularly, the four ways that antibody engineering is applied to enhance radioimmunoconjugates: pharmacokinetics optimization, site-specific bioconjugation, modulation of Fc interactions, and bispecific construct creation are discussed. The radionuclide choices for designed antibody radionuclide conjugates and conjugation techniques and future directions for antibody radionuclide conjugate innovation and advancement are also discussed.

Improving Intracellular Delivery of an Antibody-Drug Conjugate Targeting Carcinoembryonic Antigen Increases Efficacy at Clinically Relevant Doses In Vivo. Mol Cancer Ther 2024; 23:343-353. [PMID: 37913500 PMCID: PMC10932886 DOI: 10.1158/1535-7163.mct-23-0437] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/07/2023] [Revised: 09/11/2023] [Accepted: 10/27/2023] [Indexed: 11/03/2023]
Abstract
Solid tumor antibody-drug conjugates (ADC) have experienced more clinical success in the last 5 years than the previous 18-year span since the first ADC approval in 2000. While recent advances in protein engineering, linker design, and payload variations have played a role in this success, high expression and readily internalized targets have also been crucial to solid tumor therapy. However, these factors are also paradoxically connected to poor tissue penetration and lower efficacy. Previous work shows that potent ADCs can benefit from slower internalization under subsaturating doses to improve tissue penetration and increase tumor response. In contrast, faster internalization is predicted to increase efficacy under higher, tumor saturating doses. In this work, the intracellular delivery of SN-38 conjugated to an anti-carcinoembryonic antigen (anti-CEA) antibody (Ab) is increased by coadministering a noncompeting (cross-linking) anti-CEA Ab to improve efficacy in a colorectal carcinoma animal model. The SN-38 payload enables broad tumor saturation with clinically-tolerable doses, and under these saturating conditions, using a second CEA receptor cross-linking Ab yields faster internalization, which increases tumor killing efficacy. Our spheroid results show indirect bystander killing can also occur, but the more efficient direct cell killing from targeted intracellular payload release drives a greater tumor response. These results provide a strategy to increase therapeutic effectiveness with improved intracellular delivery under tumor saturating doses with the potential to expand the ADC target repertoire.

Abstract
Immuno-positron emission tomography (immunoPET) enables imaging of specific targets that play a role in targeted therapy and immunotherapy, such as antigens on cell membranes, targets in the disease microenvironment, or immune cells. The most common immunoPET applications use a monoclonal antibody labeled with a relatively long-lived positron emitter such as 89Zr (T 1/2 = 78.4 h), but smaller antibody-based constructs labeled with various other positron emitting radionuclides are also being investigated. This molecular imaging technique can thus guide the development of new drugs and may have a pivotal role in selecting patients for a particular therapy. In early phase immunoPET trials, multiple imaging time points are used to examine the time-dependent biodistribution and to determine the optimal imaging time point, which may be several days after tracer injection due to the slow kinetics of larger molecules. Once this has been established, usually only one static scan is performed and semi-quantitative values are reported. However, total PET uptake of a tracer is the sum of specific and nonspecific uptake. In addition, uptake may be affected by other factors such as perfusion, pre-/co-administration of the unlabeled molecule, and the treatment schedule. This article reviews imaging methodologies used in immunoPET studies and is divided into two parts. The first part summarizes the vast majority of clinical immunoPET studies applying semi-quantitative methodologies. The second part focuses on a handful of studies applying pharmacokinetic models and includes preclinical and simulation studies. Finally, the potential and challenges of immunoPET quantification methodologies are discussed within the context of the recent technological advancements provided by long axial field of view PET/CT scanners.

Development and Characterization of 99mTc-scFvD2B as a Potential Radiopharmaceutical for SPECT Imaging of Prostate Cancer. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 25:492. [PMID: 38203663 PMCID: PMC10779128 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25010492] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2023] [Revised: 12/22/2023] [Accepted: 12/27/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Previously, we demonstrated that the 177Lu-labeled single-chain variable fragment of an anti-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) IgG D2B antibody (scFvD2B) showed higher prostate cancer (PCa) cell uptake and tumor radiation doses compared to 177Lu-labeled Glu-ureide-based PSMA inhibitory peptides. To obtain a 99mTc-/177Lu-scFvD2B theranostic pair, this research aimed to synthesize and biochemically characterize a novel 99mTc-scFvD2B radiotracer. The scFvD2B-Tag and scFvD2B antibody fragments were produced and purified. Then, two HYNIC derivatives, HYNIC-Gly-Gly-Cys-NH2 (HYNIC-GGC) and succinimidyl-HYNIC (S-HYNIC), were used to conjugate the scFvD2B-Tag and scFvD2B isoforms, respectively. Subsequently, chemical characterization, immunoreactivity tests (affinity and specificity), radiochemical purity tests, stability tests in human serum, cellular uptake and internalization in LNCaP(+), PC3-PIP(++) or PC3(-) PCa cells of the resulting unlabeled HYNIC-scFvD2B conjugates (HscFv) and 99mTc-HscFv agents were performed. The results showed that incorporating HYNIC as a chelator did not affect the affinity, specificity or stability of scFvD2B. After purification, the radiochemical purity of 99mTc-HscFv radiotracers was greater than 95%. A two-sample t-test of 99mTc-HscFv1 and 99mTc-HscFv1 uptake in PC3-PIP vs. PC3 showed a p-value < 0.001, indicating that the PSMA receptor interaction of 99mTc-HscFv agents was statistically significantly higher in PSMA-positive cells than in the negative controls. In conclusion, the results of this research warrant further preclinical studies to determine whether the in vivo pharmacokinetics and tumor uptake of 99mTc-HscFv still offer sufficient advantages over HYNIC-conjugated peptides to be considered for SPECT/PSMA imaging.

Abstract
Adjusting the molecular size, the valency and the pharmacokinetics of drug conjugates are as many leverages to improve their therapeutic window, notably by affecting tumor penetration, renal clearance, and short systemic exposure. In that regard, small tumor-targeting ligands are gaining attention. In this study, we demonstrate the benefits of the small Nanofitin alternative scaffolds (7 kDa) as selective tumor-targeting modules for the generation of drug conjugates, focusing on Nanofitins B10 and D8 directed against the EGFR. Owing to their small size and monovalent format, the two Nanofitins displayed a fast and deep tumor penetration in EGFR-positive A431 xenografts in BALB/c nude mice after intravenous administration, yielding to a targeting of respectively 67.9% ± 14.1 and 98.9% ± 0.7 of the tumor cells as demonstrated by IHC. Conjugation with the monomethyl auristatin E toxin provided homogeneous Nanofitin-drug conjugates, with an overall yield of ≥97%, for in vivo assessment in a curative xenograft model using bioluminescent, EGFR-positive, A431 cells in BALB/c nude mice. Internalization was found critical for efficient release of the toxin. Hence, the intravenous administration of the D8-based construct showed significant antitumor effect in vivo as determined by monitoring tumor volumes and bioluminescence levels over 2 months.

Abstract
In situ clinical measurement of receptor occupancy (RO) is challenging, particularly for solid tumors, necessitating the use of mathematical models that predict tumor receptor occupancy to guide dose decisions. A potency metric, average free tissue target to initial target ratio (AFTIR), was previously described based on a mechanistic compartmental model and is informative for near-saturating dose regimens. However, the metric fails at clinically relevant subsaturating antibody doses, as compartmental models cannot capture the spatial heterogeneity of distribution faced by some antibodies in solid tumors. Here we employ a partial differential equation (PDE) Krogh cylinder model to simulate spatiotemporal receptor occupancy and derive an analytical solution, a mechanistically weighted global AFTIR, that can better predict receptor occupancy regardless of dosing regimen. In addition to the four key parameters previously identified, a fifth key parameter, the absolute receptor density (targets/cell), is incorporated into the mechanistic AFTIR metric. Receptor density can influence equilibrium intratumoral drug concentration relative to whether the dose is saturating or not, thereby influencing the tumor penetration depth of the antibody. We derive mechanistic RO predictions based on distinct patterns of antibody tumor penetration, presented as a global AFTIR metric guided by a Thiele Modulus and a local saturation potential (drug equivalent of binding potential for positron emissions tomography imaging) and validate the results using rigorous global and local sensitivity analysis. This generalized AFTIR serves as a more accurate analytical metric to aid clinical dose decisions and rational design of antibody-based therapeutics without the need for extensive PDE simulations. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Determining antibody-receptor occupancy (RO) is critical for dosing decisions in pharmaceutical development, but direct clinical measurement of RO is often challenging and invasive, particularly for solid tumors. Significant efforts have been made to develop mathematical models and simplified analytical metrics of RO, but these often require complex computer simulations. Here we present a mathematically rigorous but simplified analytical model to accurately predict RO across a range of affinities, doses, drug, and tumor properties.

Abstract
Immuno-positron emission tomography (immunoPET) is a molecular imaging modality combining the high sensitivity of PET with the specific targeting ability of monoclonal antibodies. Various radioimmunotracers have been successfully developed to target a broad spectrum of molecules expressed by malignant cells or tumor microenvironments. Only a few are translated into clinical studies and barely into clinical practices. Some drawbacks include slow radioimmunotracer kinetics, high physiologic uptake in lymphoid organs, and heterogeneous activity in tumoral lesions. Measures are taken to overcome the disadvantages, and new tracers are being developed. In this review, we aim to mention the fundamental components of immunoPET imaging, explore the groundbreaking success achieved using this new technique, and review different radioimmunotracers employed in various solid tumors to elaborate on this relatively new imaging modality.

Abstract
Background 89Zirconium-immuno-positron emission tomography (89Zr-immuno-PET) is used for assessment of target status to guide antibody-based therapy. We aim to determine the relation between antibody tumor uptake and target concentration to improve future study design and interpretation.
Methods The relation between tumor uptake and target concentration was predicted by mathematical modeling of 89Zr-labeled antibody disposition in the tumor. Literature values for trastuzumab kinetics were used to provide an example. Results 89Zr-trastuzumab uptake initially increases with increasing target concentration, until it levels off to a constant value. This is determined by the total administered mass dose of trastuzumab. For a commonly used imaging dose of 50 mg 89Zr-trastuzumab, uptake can discriminate between immunohistochemistry score (IHC) 0 versus 1–2–3.
Conclusion The example for 89Zr-trastuzumab illustrates the potential to assess target expression. The pitfall of false-positive findings depends on the cut-off to define clinical target positivity (i.e., IHC 3) and the administered mass dose.

Abstract
Choosing and optimizing treatment strategies for cancer requires
capturing its complex dynamics sufficiently well for understanding but
without being overwhelmed. Mathematical models are essential to
achieve this understanding, and we discuss the challenge of choosing
the right level of complexity to address the full range of tumor
complexity from growth, the generation of tumor heterogeneity, and
interactions within tumors and with treatments and the tumor
microenvironment. We discuss the differences between conceptual and
descriptive models, and compare the use of predator-prey models,
evolutionary game theory, and dynamic precision medicine approaches in
the face of uncertainty about mechanisms and parameter values.
Although there is of course no one-size-fits-all approach, we conclude
that broad and flexible thinking about cancer, based on combined
modeling approaches, will play a key role in finding creative and
improved treatments.

Abstract
Selecting the dose for efficacy and first-in-human studies of bispecific antibodies (BsAbs) is a challenging process. Herein, positron emission tomography (PET) imaging with 89Zr-labeled IBI322, an anti-CD47/PD-L1 BsAb, was used to optimize the safety and effective therapy dose. By labeling with 89Zr, we aimed to assess the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, and target engagement of IBI322 with dose escalation dynamic PET imaging in humanized transgenic animal models bearing MC38 tumors (knock-in of hCD47 and hPDL1). 89Zr-labeled IBI322 specifically accumulated in tumors with a tumor-to-muscle ratio of 12.37 ± 1.42 at 168 h (0.22 mg/kg) and the biodistribution of normal tissues from PET imaging could be used for preliminary safety prediction. According to the Pearson correlation analysis between the ELISA-quantified serum concentration and heart uptake (%ID/g) (r = 0.980), a modified Patlak model was proposed. The exploratory target-mediated 50% (0.38 mg/kg) and 90% (0.63 mg/kg) inhibitory mass doses were calculated with the current modified Patlak model. The preliminary pharmacodynamics (PD) study with 0.34 mg/kg revealed that the dose prediction was rational. In conclusion, dose escalation PET imaging with 89Zr-labeled antibodies is promising for PK/PD modeling and safety prediction, and helpful for determining rational dosing for preclinical and clinical trials of BsAbs.

Abstract
Immuno-positron emission tomography (immunoPET) is a paradigm-shifting molecular imaging modality combining the superior targeting specificity of monoclonal antibody (mAb) and the inherent sensitivity of PET technique. A variety of radionuclides and mAbs have been exploited to develop immunoPET probes, which has been driven by the development and optimization of radiochemistry and conjugation strategies. In addition, tumor-targeting vectors with a short circulation time (e.g., Nanobody) or with an enhanced binding affinity (e.g., bispecific antibody) are being used to design novel immunoPET probes. Accordingly, several immunoPET probes, such as 89Zr-Df-pertuzumab and 89Zr-atezolizumab, have been successfully translated for clinical use. By noninvasively and dynamically revealing the expression of heterogeneous tumor antigens, immunoPET imaging is gradually changing the theranostic landscape of several types of malignancies. ImmunoPET is the method of choice for imaging specific tumor markers, immune cells, immune checkpoints, and inflammatory processes. Furthermore, the integration of immunoPET imaging in antibody drug development is of substantial significance because it provides pivotal information regarding antibody targeting abilities and distribution profiles. Herein, we present the latest immunoPET imaging strategies and their preclinical and clinical applications. We also emphasize current conjugation strategies that can be leveraged to develop next-generation immunoPET probes. Lastly, we discuss practical considerations to tune the development and translation of immunoPET imaging strategies.

Abstract
Les anticorps sont désormais devenus d’une utilisation courante dans un large champ thérapeutique qui n’est plus restreint à la cancérologie et à l’inflammation. Cette explosion du domaine conduit à des besoins nouveaux qui peuvent être mieux remplis par des molécules inspirées mais différentes des anticorps classiques. En particulier, la molécule anticorps a de multiples fonctions qui ne sont pas toujours nécessaires, comme sa capacité à recruter les cellules du système immunitaire, à se lier de façon bivalente à sa cible ou à présenter une demi-vie plasmatique élevée. En revanche, dans la grande majorité des applications, sa remarquable capacité à reconnaître spécifiquement sa cible moléculaire et surtout sa diversité de reconnaissance doivent être conservées. De plus, les anticorps sont des molécules de très haut poids moléculaire, coûteuses à produire et qui présentent des propriétés physicochimiques limitées ne permettant pas leur utilisation dans des milieux agressifs. Finalement, dans certaines applications thérapeutiques, la grande taille de la molécule (environ 150 kDa) peut également limiter sa diffusion dans les tissus et empêcher la reconnaissance de certaines structures moléculaires peu accessibles. Pour répondre à ces limitations, de nombreux formats alternatifs aux anticorps entiers ont été développés au cours de ces vingt dernières années. Les applications couvrent les domaines de la biotechnologie, du diagnostic in vitro et in vivo et de la thérapie. Deux grandes familles de molécules permettent de couvrir ce champ et seront présentées dans cette mini-revue. Une première famille s’appuie sur la diversité naturelle des anticorps mais en en réduisant la taille, comme les fragments d’anticorps classiques (Fab, scFv) ou ceux provenant des camélidés ou des requins (VHH, V-NAR). La deuxième famille a été développée en partant des propriétés finales désirées et notamment la stabilité en milieu extrême et la productivité en système simple et économique de production comme l’utilisation de bactéries et en y greffant des propriétés de liaison comparables aux anticorps par des méthodes d’évolution moléculaire dirigée in vitro. Cette mini-revue se concentrera sur les molécules les plus avancées, mais le domaine est en très forte et rapide expansion. Il faut noter que beaucoup de ces molécules, voire ces approches, sont couvertes par des brevets et sont souvent développées dans le cadre de jeunes sociétés innovantes dont certaines ont déjà été rachetées par de grands groupes de la pharmacie.

Abstract
Nanoparticle (NP) contrast agents targeted to cancer biomarkers are increasingly being engineered for the early detection of cancer, guidance of therapy, and monitoring of response. There have been recent efforts to topically apply biomarker-targeted NPs on tissue surfaces to image the expression of cell-surface receptors over large surface areas as a means of evaluating tumor margins to guide wide local excision surgeries. However, diffusion and nonspecific binding of the NPs present challenges for relating NP retention on the tissue surface with the expression of cancer cell receptors. Paired-agent methods that employ a secondary 'control' NP to account for these nonspecific effects can improve cancer detection. Yet these paired-agent methods introduce multidimensional complexity (with tissue staining, rinsing, imaging, and data analysis protocols all being subject to alteration), and could be greatly simplified with accurate, predictive in silico models of NP binding and diffusion. Here, we outline and validate such a model to predict the diffusion, as well as specific and nonspecific binding, of targeted and control NPs topically applied on tissue surfaces. In order to inform the model, in vitro experiments were performed to determine relevant NP diffusion and binding rate constants in tissues. The predictive capacity of the model was validated by comparing simulated distributions of various sizes of NPs in comparison with experimental results. The regression of predicted and experimentally measured concentration-depth profiles yielded <15% error (compared to ~70% error obtained using a previous model of NP diffusion and binding).

Abstract
With Antibody-Drug Conjugate strategies firmly focussed on the precise conjugation to the large protein Immunoglobulin-G format, it is easy to miss the more recent technological innovations in small-format drug conjugates. Here, the targeting ligand can be at 50-95% reduced in size, or even smaller if peptidic in nature. Antibody domains or alternative binding scaffolds, chemically-modified with ultra-potent cytotoxic payloads offer an alternative approach for oncology therapeutics, promising a wider therapeutic window by virtue of superior solid tumour penetration properties and more rapid system clearance. Many of the traditional ADC concepts still apply, but as these miniaturised ADCs enter the clinic over the next 2-3 years, we will learn whether these new features translate to patient benefits.

Abstract
Antibody-Drug Conjugates (ADCs) have been through multiple cycles of technological innovation since the concept was first practically demonstrated ~40 years ago. Current technology is focusing on large, whole immunoglobulin formats (of which there are approaching 100 in clinical development), many with site-specifically conjugated payloads numbering 2 or 4. Despite the success of trastuzumab-emtansine in breast cancer, ADCs have generally failed to have an impact in solid tumours, leading many to explore alternative, smaller formats which have better penetrating properties as well as more rapid pharmacokinetics (PK). This review describes research and development progress over the last ~10 years obtained from the primary literature or conferences covering over a dozen different smaller format-drug conjugates from 80 kDa to around 1 kDa in total size. In general, these agents are potent in vitro, particularly more recent ones incorporating ultra-potent payloads such as auristatins or maytansinoids, but this potency profile changes when testing in vivo due to the more rapid clearance. Strategies to manipulate the PK properties, whilst retaining the more effective tumour penetrating properties could at last make small-format drug conjugates viable alternative therapeutics to the more established ADCs.
