Antibody-Drug Conjugates: The Best of Both Worlds? Antibody targets cancer cells Small molecule drug kills cancer cells (also known as the warhead ) Linker joins antibody and drug + = Selective killing of tumor cells High Cytotoxicity High Specificity
Why Model Antibody-Drug Conjugates? Need to optimize 3 different entities to determine collective properties of the ADC: Antibody Mu Multiple design levers can be controlled Warhead Ph Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of Why model individual components and overall ADC ADCs? Linker Therapeutic Index : balance between safety & toxicity Th at multiple scales Drug to Antibody Ratio Can be applied at any stage of drug development process (DAR): average number of drug molecules attached to the antibody Discovery Preclinical Clinical

Goal : Build a multiscale, integrated computational model of AstraZeneca pyrrolobenzodiazepine ( PBD PBD ) ADCs using differential equations with “bench to bedside” translation Our Systems Use model to improve prediction of therapeutic index (TI) Pharmacology and to understand : Properties of the ADC to build the optimal therapy Model of Kinetics and mechanisms of ADC action in tumor PBD ADCs Off-target and bystander effects Factors that have the biggest impact on safety and efficacy Framework can be adapted to other types of ADCs
