Pharmacokinetics and toxicity considerations for antibody–drug conjugates: an overview

Antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) is one of the fastest-growing drug delivery systems. It involves a monoclonal antibody conjugated with payload via a ligand that directly targets the expressive protein of diseased cell. Hence, it reduces systemic exposure and provides site-specific delivery along wit...

Description
Summary:Antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) is one of the fastest-growing drug delivery systems. It involves a monoclonal antibody conjugated with payload via a ligand that directly targets the expressive protein of diseased cell. Hence, it reduces systemic exposure and provides site-specific delivery along with reduced toxicity. Because of this advantage, researchers have gained interest in this novel system. ADCs have displayed great promise in drug delivery and biomedical applications. However, a lack of understanding exists on their mechanisms of biodistribution, metabolism and side effects. To gain a better understanding of the therapeutics, careful consideration of the pharmacokinetics and toxicity needs to be undertaken. In this review, different pharmacokinetics parameters including distribution, bioanalysis and heterogeneity are discussed for developing novel therapeutics.
