Population pharmacokinetics of sibrotuzumab, a novel therapeutic monoclonal antibody, in cancer patients

Abstract

Population pharmacokinetics of sibrotuzumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody directed against fibroblast activation protein, were determined after multiple intravenous infusions of dosages ranging from 5 mg/m2 to an absolute dose of 100 mg, in patients with advanced or metastatic carcinoma. In total, 1844 serum concentrations from 60 patients in three Phase I and II clinical studies were analyzed. The structural model incorporated two disposition compartments and two parallel elimination pathways from the central compartment, one linear and one nonlinear. Finally estimated pharmacokinetic parameters (%RSE) were: linear clearance CLL 22.1 ml/h (9.6), central distribution volume V1 4.131 (3.7)..
