Title The Preclinical Profile of the Duocarmycin-Based HER2-Targeting ADC SYD985 Predicts for Clinical Benefit in Low HER2-Expressing Breast Cancers.
URL
Abstract Text SYD985 is a HER2-targeting antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) based on trastuzumab and vc-seco-DUBA, a cleavable linker-duocarmycin payload. To evaluate the therapeutic potential of this new ADC, mechanistic in vitro studies and in vivo patient-derived xenograft (PDX) studies were conducted to compare SYD985 head-to-head with T-DM1 (Kadcyla), another trastuzumab-based ADC. SYD985 and T-DM1 had similar binding affinities to HER2 and showed similar internalization. In vitro cytotoxicity assays showed similar potencies and efficacies in HER2 3+ cell lines, but in cell lines with low HER2 expression, SYD985 was 3- to 50-fold more potent than T-DM1. In contrast with T-DM1, SYD985 efficiently induced bystander killing in vitro in HER2-negative (HER2 0) cells mixed with HER2 3+, 2+, or 1+ cell lines. At pH conditions relevant for tumors, cathepsin-B cleavage studies showed efficient release of the active toxin by SYD985 but not by T-DM1. These in vitro data suggest that SYD985 might be a more potent ADC in HER2-expressing tumors in vivo, especially in low HER2-expressing and/or in heterogeneous tumors. In line with this, in vivo antitumor studies in breast cancer PDX models showed that SYD985 is very active in HER2 3+, 2+, and 1+ models, whereas T-DM1 only showed significant antitumor activity in HER2 3+ breast cancer PDX models. These properties of SYD985 may enable expansion of the target population to patients who have low HER2-expressing breast cancer, a patient population with still unmet high medical need.

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.
