Abstrakt:	M3258 is an orally bioavailable, potent, selective, reversible inhibitor of the large multifunctional peptidase 7 (LMP7, β 5i, PSMB8) proteolytic subunit of the immunoproteasome, a component of the cellular protein degradation machinery, highly expressed in malignant hematopoietic cells including multiple myeloma. Here we describe the fit-for-purpose pharmacokinetic (PK)/pharmacodynamic (PD)/efficacy modeling of M3258 based on preclinical data from several species. The inhibition of LMP7 activity (PD) and tumor growth (efficacy) were tested in human multiple myeloma xenografts in mice. PK and efficacy data were correlated yielding a free M3258 concentration of 45 nM for half-maximal tumor growth inhibition (KC 50 ). As M3258 only weakly inhibits LMP7 in mouse cells, both in vitro and in vivo bridging studies were performed in rats, monkeys, and dogs for translational modeling. These data indicated that the PD response in human xenograft models was closely reflected in dog PBMCs. A PK/PD model was established, predicting a free IC 50 value of 9 nM for M3258 in dogs in vivo, in close agreement with in vitro measurements. In parallel, the human PK parameters of M3258 were predicted by various approaches including in vitro extrapolation and allometric scaling. Using PK/PD/efficacy simulations, the efficacious dose range and corresponding PD response in human were predicted. Taken together, these efforts supported the design of a phase Ia study of M3258 in multiple myeloma patients (NCT04075721). At the lowest tested dose level, the predicted exposure matched well with the observed exposure while the duration of LMP7 inhibition was underpredicted by the model. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: M3258 is a novel inhibitor of the immunoproteasome subunit LMP7. The human PK and human efficacious dose range of M3258 were predicted using in vitro-in vivo extrapolation and allometric scaling methods together with a fit-for-purpose PK/PD and efficacy model based on data from several species. A comparison with data from the Phase Ia clinical study showed that the human PK was accurately predicted, while the extent and duration of PD response were more pronounced than estimated.
