Abstrakt: | c-Met, as a receptor expressed on the cell membrane, contributes to the growth and metastasis of tumors, as well as angiogenesis, mainly through the hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)/c-Met axis during tumor progression. Although several c-Met inhibitors, including small molecules and monoclonal antibody inhibitors, are currently being investigated, their clinical outcomes have not been promising. Development of an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) against c-Met could be an attractive therapeutic strategy that would provide superior antitumor efficacy with broad-spectrum c-Met expression levels. In the present study, site-specific drug-conjugate technology was applied to develop an ADC using the human-mouse cross-reactive c-Met antibody and a prodrug pyrrolobenzodiazepine (PBD). The toxin payload was uniformly conjugated to the light-chain C-terminus of the native cIRCR201 antibody (drug-to-antibody ratio = 2), as confirmed using LC-MS. Using a high-throughput screening system, we found that cIRCR201-dPBD exhibited varying sensitivities depending on the expression levels of c-Met, and it induced receptor-mediated endocytosis and toxin-mediated apoptosis in 47 different cancer cell lines. cIRCR201-dPBD also showed significant antitumor activity on the MET -amplified cancer cells using in vivo xenograft models. Therefore, cIRCR201-dPBD could be a promising therapeutic strategy for tumors with c-Met expression. Competing Interests: The authors declare no competing financial interest. |
