While antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are advancing through clinical testing and receiving new marketing approvals, improvements to the technology continue to be developed in both academic and industrial laboratories. Among the key ADC attributes that can be improved upon with new technology are their biodistribution and pharmacokinetic properties. During the course of ADC development, it has become apparent that conjugation of drugs to the surface of a monoclonal antibody can alter its physicochemical characteristics in a manner that results in increased nonspecific interactions and more rapid elimination from plasma. Researchers in the field have typically relied upon in vivo studies in preclinical models to understand how a particular ADC chemistry will impact these biological characteristics. In previous work, we described how animal studies have revealed a relationship between ADC hydrophobicity, pharmacokinetics, and nonspecific hepatic clearance, particularly by sinusoidal endothelium and Kupffer cells. Here, we describe a fluorescence-based assay using cultured Kupffer cells to recapitulate the nonspecific interactions that lead to ADC clearance in an in vitro setting with the aim of developing a tool for predicting the pharmacokinetics of novel ADC designs. Output from this assay has demonstrated an excellent correlation with plasma clearance for a series of closely related ADCs bearing discrete PEG chains of varying length and has proven useful in interrogating the mechanism of the interactions between ADCs and Kupffer cells.
