    Abstract:
    In preclinical protein therapeutic development studies, the emergence of anti-drug antibodies (ADA) can potentially impact drug pharmacokinetics and safety. While immunogenicity assessment is not mandatory in preclinical studies, banking samples can be valuable for interpreting unexpected pharmacological responses. Immunoassays that use generic reagents across different drug molecules can simplify ADA assessment and expedite sample evaluations. This work showcases the ability of the Gyrolab automated immunoassay platform to detect and quantify both drug-free and drug-bound (total) ADAs to monoclonal antibody (mAb) therapeutics in cynomolgus monkey preclinical studies. Compared to the previously reported total ADA ELISA, the Gyrolab assay exhibited a wider signal dynamic range and increased drug tolerance. Similar sensitivity, dynamic range and cut point factors were observed for four therapeutic mAbs of different isotypes using the Gyrolab assay. Here we present a comparison of ADA assays using bridging ELISA, total ADA ELISA and total ADA Gyrolab formats in a cynomolgus monkey study where the subjects were treated with a single dose of a mAb therapeutic. We demonstrate that the total ADA assays detected host ADA responses at earlier time points compared to the bridging ELISA. The Gyrolab assay has the best correlation between signal-to-noise (S/N) and titer over a wide ADA concentration range, highlighting the utility of Gyrolab in S/N reporting of ADA response to eliminate the need for secondary titer assays. Collectively, our results demonstrate that the generic ADA Gyrolab assay minimizes the necessity for extensive assay development and optimization for therapeutic mAbs, streamlining preclinical immunogenicity assessment to enable interpretation of pharmacological data.
