A Single Animal Species-Based Prediction of Human Clearance and First-in-Human Dose of Monoclonal Antibodies: Beyond Monkey.

ABSTRACT: These days, there is a lot of emphasis on the prediction of human clearance (CL) from a single species for monoclonal antibodies (mabs). Many studies indicate that monkey is the most suitable species for the prediction of human clearance for mabs. However, it is not well established if rodents (mouse or rat) can also be used to predict human CL for mabs. The objectives of this study were to predict and compare human CL as well as first-in-human dose of mabs from mouse or rat, ormonkey. Four methods were used for the prediction of human CL of mabs. These methods were: use of four allometric exponents (0.75, 0.80, 0.85, and 0.90), a minimal physiologically based pharmacokinetics method (mPBPK), lymph flow rate, and liver blood flow rate. Based on the predicted CL, first-in-human dose of mabs
