    Author: Jordan G, Pöhler A, Guilhot F, Zaspel M, Staack RF.
    Journal: Bioanalysis; 2020 Jun; 12(12):857-866. PubMed ID: 32603603.
    Abstract:
    Aim: Antidrug antibody (ADA) assessment may be challenged in studies that involve the administration of high doses of biotherapeutics and/or with long half-lives. In such cases, ADA assays with optimized drug tolerance are desired. Material & Methods: We evaluated the use of MgCl2 to develop high ionic strength dissociation assays in two investigational examples (bridging enzyme-linked immunosorbent ADA assays) to attain high drug tolerance while maintaining best possible structural integrity of ADAs. Results: Both ADA-bridging assays treated with MgCl2 showed improved drug tolerance and higher signal-to-blank values compared with overnight incubation or acid treatment. Conclusion: The use of MgCl2 treatment in ADA-bridging assays provides a sensitive, drug tolerant and easy-to-use alternative in cases where acid dissociation is not possible or unwanted.
