First-in-human study with SAR445088: A novel selective classical complement pathway inhibitor.

ABSTRACT: SAR445088 is an anti-C1s humanized monoclonal antibody that inhibits activated C1s in the proximal portion of the classical complement system and has the potential to provide clinical benefit in the treatment of complement-mediated diseases. A phase I, first-in-human, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, dose-escalation trial of single and multiple doses of SAR445088 was conducted in 93 healthy participants to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) profiles. Single (intravenous [i.v.] and subcutaneous [s.c.]) ascending doses (SAD) and multiple (s.c.) ascending doses (MAD) of SAR445088 were well-tolerated. The PK of SAR445088 was characterized by slow absorption after the s.c. dose and a long half-life (mean terminal half-life [t_1/2 ] 8-15 weeks). Two PD assays were used to measure inhibition of the classical complement pathway (CP): Wieslab CP and complement mediated hemolytic capacity (CH50). The estimated half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC₅₀ ) and 90% inhibitory concentration (IC₉₀ ) for the Wieslab CP assay were 96.4 and 458 μg/ml, respectively, and 16.6 and 57.0 μg/ml, respectively, for the CH50 assay. In summary, SAR445088 was well-tolerated and had favorable PK and PD profiles after SAD (i.v. or s.c.) and MAD (s.c.) in humans. These findings warrant further clinical investigations in patients with classical complement-mediated disorders.

Project description:The complement, as part of the innate immune system, represents the first line of defense against Gram-negative bacteria invading the bloodstream. The complement system is a zymogen cascade that ultimately assemble into the so-called membrane attack complex (MAC), which lyses Gram-negative bacteria upon insertion into the outer membrane. Traditionally, serum has been used as complement source, for example to study the bactericidal activity of monoclonal antibodies or antibodies raised upon vaccination. Due to the significant donor to donor variability, as well as susceptibility of complement factors to handling and storage conditions, assay reproducibility using human serum is low. Moreover, the presence of pre-existing antibodies and antimicrobial compounds are confounding factors. To remove antibodies from human serum, we applied κ/λ-light chain specific affinity chromatography, however the method severely reduced the complement activity due to the depletion of complement components. Therefore, we attempted to reconstitute human complement-namely the alternative (rAP) and the classical (rCP) pathways-from purified complement factors. We found that adding C1-inhibitor to the mixture was essential to maintain a stable and functional C1 and thus to generate an active rCP. We further confirmed the functionality of the rCP by testing the complement-dependent bactericidal activity of a human monoclonal antibody, A1124 against an E. coli clinical isolate belonging to the ST131 clonal complex, and that of a polyclonal IVIg against a laboratory E. coli strain (MG1655) not expressing LPS O-antigen and capsule. Although the alternative pathway did not have any bactericidal activity by itself, it enhanced MAC deposition induced by rCP and increased the overall bactericidal activity against the ST131 E. coli strain. In conclusion, we report for the first time the successful in vitro reconstitution of the classical pathway of the human complement to establish a serum-free, complement dependent bactericidal assay. This system offers high level of standardization and could support the study of the complement in different research fields.
