Here, we report the development of DS-7300a, a novel B7-H3-targeting antibody-drug conjugate with a potent DNA topoisomerase I inhibitor, and its in vitro profile, pharmacokinetic profiles, safety profiles, and in vivo antitumor activities in nonclinical species. The target specificity and species cross-reactivity of DS-7300a were assessed. Its pharmacologic activities were evaluated in several human cancer cell lines in vitro and xenograft mouse models, including patient-derived xenograft (PDX) mouse models in vivo. Pharmacokinetics was investigated in cynomolgus monkeys. Safety profiles in rats and cynomolgus monkeys were also assessed. DS-7300a specifically bound to B7-H3 and inhibited the growth of B7-H3-expressing cancer cells, but not that of B7-H3-negative cancer cells, in vitro. Additionally, treatment with DS-7300a and DXd induced phosphorylated checkpoint kinase 1, a DNA damage marker, and cleaved PARP, an apoptosis marker, in cancer cells. Moreover, DS-7300a demonstrated potent in vivo antitumor activities in high-B7-H3 tumor xenograft models, including various tumor types of high-B7-H3 PDX models. Furthermore, DS-7300a was stable in circulation with acceptable pharmacokinetic profiles in monkeys, and well tolerated in rats and monkeys. DS-7300a exerted potent antitumor activities against B7-H3-expressing tumors in in vitro and in vivo models, including PDX mouse models, and showed acceptable pharmacokinetic and safety profiles in nonclinical species. Therefore, DS-7300a may be effective in treating patients with B7-H3-expressing solid tumors in a clinical setting."],"journal":["Molecular cancer therapeutics"],"pagination":["635-646"],"full_dataset_link":["https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC9377751"],"repository":["biostudies-literature"],"pubmed_title":["DS-7300a, a DNA Topoisomerase I Inhibitor, DXd-Based Antibody-Drug Conjugate Targeting B7-H3, Exerts Potent Antitumor Activities in Preclinical Models."],"pmcid":["PMC9377751"],"pubmed_authors":["Kumagai K","Maejima T","Nishiya Y","Watanabe A","Nakada T","Hayakawa I","Shibutani T","Yamato M","Hattori C","Agatsuma T","Aida T","Hasegawa J","Abe Y"],"additional_accession":[]},"is_claimable":false,"name":"DS-7300a, a DNA Topoisomerase I Inhibitor, DXd-Based Antibody-Drug Conjugate Targeting B7-H3, Exerts Potent Antitumor Activities in Preclinical Models.","description":"B7-H3 is overexpressed in various solid tumors and has been considered as an attractive target for cancer therapy.
