Alternative Routes of Administration for Therapeutic Antibodies—State of the Art. Antibodies (Basel) 2022; 11:antib11030056. [PMID: 36134952 PMCID: PMC9495858 DOI: 10.3390/antib11030056] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/07/2022] [Revised: 08/11/2022] [Accepted: 08/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: For the past two decades, there has been a huge expansion in the development of therapeutic antibodies, with 6 to 10 novel entities approved each year. Around 70% of these Abs are delivered through IV injection, a mode of administration allowing rapid and systemic delivery of the drug. However, according to the evidence presented in the literature, beyond the reduction of invasiveness, a better efficacy can be achieved with local delivery. Consequently, efforts have been made toward the development of innovative methods of administration, and in the formulation and engineering of novel Abs to improve their therapeutic index. Objective: This review presents an overview of the routes of administration used to deliver Abs, different from the IV route, whether approved or in the clinical evaluation stage. We provide a description of the physical and biological fundamentals for each route of administration, highlighting their relevance with examples of clinically-relevant Abs, and discussing their strengths and limitations. Methods: We reviewed and analyzed the current literature, published as of the 1 April 2022 using MEDLINE and EMBASE databases, as well as the FDA and EMA websites. Ongoing trials were identified using clinicaltrials.gov. Publications and data were identified using a list of general keywords. Conclusions: Apart from the most commonly used IV route, topical delivery of Abs has shown clinical successes, improving drug bioavailability and efficacy while reducing side-effects. However, additional research is necessary to understand the consequences of biological barriers associated with local delivery for Ab partitioning, in order to optimize delivery methods and devices, and to adapt Ab formulation to local delivery. Novel modes of administration for Abs might in fine allow a better support to patients, especially in the context of chronic diseases, as well as a reduction of the treatment cost.

Abstract
The route of administration of a therapeutic agent has a substantial impact on its success. Therapeutic antibodies are usually administered systemically, either directly by intravenous route, or indirectly by intramuscular or subcutaneous injection. However, treatment of diseases contained within a specific tissue necessitates a better alternate route of administration for targeting localised infections. Inhalation is a promising non-invasive strategy for antibody delivery to treat respiratory maladies because it provides higher concentrations of antibody in the respiratory airways overcoming the constraints of entry through systemic circulation and uncertainity in the amount reaching the target tissue. The nasal drug delivery route is one of the extensively researched modes of administration, and nasal sprays for molecular drugs are deemed successful and are presently commercially marketed. This review highlights the current state and future prospects of inhaled therapies, with an emphasis on the use of monoclonal antibodies for the treatment of respiratory infections, as well as an overview of their importance, practical challenges, and clinical trial outcomes.Key points• Immunologic strategies for preventing mucosal transmission of respiratory pathogens.• Mucosal-mediated immunoprophylaxis could play a major role in COVID-19 prevention.• Applications of monoclonal antibodies in passive immunisation.

MAbs 2017; 9:579-585. [PMID: 28346048 PMCID: PMC5419087 DOI: 10.1080/19420862.2017.1298899] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2017] [Revised: 02/20/2017] [Accepted: 02/21/2017] [Indexed: 10/19/2022] Open
Abstract
The annual "LabEx MAbImprove Industrial Workshops" are primarily intended to provide a comprehensive view about topics of interest for the pharmaceutical industry to scientists involved in research on therapeutic antibodies. The third workshop in this series, held July 2, 2015 in Tours, was dedicated to the optimization of delivery, namely all processes leading monoclonal antibodies to reach their target site. The commonly used intravenous (IV) route, although advantageous in terms of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, presents some disadvantages in terms of patients' convenience, therapeutic target access or treatment cost. Such problems led pharmaceutical companies to consider more straightforward and patient-friendly administration routes, bringing the need for specific formulations adapted to the specific inherent physicochemical challenges. In this context, the workshop provided an overview of these advances and opened discussion on new administration routes and formulation development. In the first session, the opportunities and challenges of 3 main routes of administration (IV, subcutaneous (SC), and pulmonary) were discussed, integrating protein stability issues. The next session was dedicated to medical devices intended for SC and pulmonary administration. The last session focused on specific formulations for monoclonal antibodies, particularly to successfully protect antibodies upon aerosolization, to develop highly concentrated formulations for SC administration, and to use formulation as a mean to overcome the barriers to oral protein delivery. As in the previous editions, this workshop gathered people from the academic and industrial spheres and allowed rich debates and discussions.
