The dissolution studies for pilot formulations were conducted in biopredictive media in fasting (0.1 N HCl followed by pH 6.8) and fed (pH 5 followed by pH 6.8) conditions. The model was extensively validated in three stages: pilot fasted, pilot fed virtual bioequivalence and food effect assessments. Impressively, the model was able to predict both passed and failed batches appropriately.Based on insights from the pilot study, a higher scale pivotal formulation was optimised. Prospective predictions were made for pivotal formulations using validated model and bio results were found to be in line with model predictions in fasting condition.Overall, a rationale and patient compliant formulation was developed using innovative modelling approach and filed to regulatory agency.

It is known that MMAE is released from the ADC following binding, internalisation and proteolytic degradation in target tissues. A striking discrepancy in systemic MMAE levels has been observed across species with 50-fold higher MMAE levels in human than that in rodents when normalised by ADC dose with unknown mechanism.<b>Hypothesis and purpose:</b> Multiple factors could affect systemic MMAE levels such as production and elimination of unconjugated MMAE following ADC dosing. In this study, we have explored whether MMAE displays differential red blood cell (RBC) partitioning across species that may contribute to the different MMAE levels seen between human and animals.<b>Experiments:</b> To determine MMAE RBC partitioning, tritium labelled MMAE ([³H]-MMAE) was incubated in whole blood from mice, rats, monkeys and humans <i>in vitro</i>, then RBC partitioning was determined and compared across species. To test whether MMAE released from the ADC would show any difference in RBC partitioning, pinatuzumab vedotin or polatuzumab vedotin was administered to mice, rats, and monkeys. MMAE levels were measured in both blood and plasma, and the ratios of MMAE levels were calculated as blood-to-plasma ratio (<i>in vivo</i> RBC partitioning).<b>Results:</b> Our <i>in vitro</i> data showed that unconjugated MMAE has a species-dependent RBC partitioning with strong RBC partitioning in mouse, rat, followed by monkey blood, whereas minimal RBC partitioning was seen in human blood. Incubation of 2 nM of MMAE in mouse blood resulted in a blood-to-plasma ratio of 11.8 ± 0.291, followed by rat, monkey, and human at 2.36 ± 0.0825, 1.57 ± 0.0250, and 0.976 ± 0.0620, respectively. MMAE RBC partitioning is also concentration-dependent, with an inverse relationship between RBC partitioning and MMAE concentration (higher RBC partitioning at lower concentration). <i>In vivo</i> dosing of pinatuzumab vedotin in mouse displayed systemic MMAE at about a 5-fold higher blood concentration compared to plasma concentration once MMAE reached a pseudo-equilibrium, while systemic MMAE from blood and plasma concentration showed a 1.65-fold difference in rat.<b>Implication and conclusion:</b> These data demonstrated that MMAE has a distinct RBC partitioning across different species, which may contribute to, at least in part, to the differential in the systemic MMAE levels observed <i>in vivo</i> between preclinical and clinical studies.
