  • 1.  Develop PK and ADA assays for a biologic Co-med in clinical trials (Phase 1-4)?

    Posted 07-28-2023 09:31

    To BA community:

     

    What is your experience when Co-med such as MAbs or other approved biologics being dosed together with Sponsor's drugs (also a biologic) for phase 1 to phase 4 clinical trials, in addition to the PK/ADA assays for the sponsor's drugs, do you also develop PK and ADA assays for the Co-med or this is not done?

    Hello Lili,

    All this will depend on the reagents you are using, if you have well characterized reagents and specific to the sponsor drug (Anti-IDs or affinity purified antibodies…), on our experience one assay for the sponsor drug will be enough with the assumption that you are testing the drug interference in your PK assay using the Co-med drug then for the ADA, assess your Co-med drug in the confirmatory stage to show any or no cross-reactivity of the ADA anti-sponsor drug toward the Co-med drug

    Best, Cheikh

    If your drug is immunostimulatory, I see scientific value to understanding its impact on the comedication ADA seroconversion, particularly if positive ADA already known to impact safety or efficacy of that comedication. Not so much for the other direction of immunosuppression.
    I'm not aware of any scientific reason to suspect changes in PK with co-administration of biologics, but if there is a reason to suspect, getting some steady-state PK may be warranted.
