https://www.selleckchem.com/products/dl-ap5-2-apv.html Adalimumab, a recombinant fully human monoclonal antibody targeting tumor necrosis factor (TNF), is approved in the United States and Europe to treat various inflammatory and autoimmune indications. Biosimilars are approved biologics highly similar, but not identical, to approved biotherapeutics. To support clinical development of PF-06410293, an adalimumab biosimilar, nonclinical studies evaluated the structural, functional, toxicologic, and toxicokinetic similarity to originator adalimumab sourced from the United States (adalimumab-US) and European Union (adalimumab-EU). Structural similarity was assessed by peptide mapping. Biologic activity was measured via inhibition of TNF-induced apoptosis and Fc-based functionality assessments. In vivo nonclinical similarity was evaluated in a toxicity study in cynomolgus monkeys administered subcutaneous PF-06410293 or adalimumab-EU (0 or 157 mg/kg/week). Peptide mapping demonstrated PF-06410293, adalimumab-US, and adalimumab-EU had identical amino acid sequences. Comparative functional and binding assessments were similar. Effects of PF-06410293 and adalimumab-EU were similar and limited to pharmacologically mediated decreased cellularity of lymphoid follicles and germinal centers in spleen. Toxicokinetics were similar; maximum plasma concentration and area-under-the-concentration-time curve ratio of PF-06410293adalimumab-EU ranged from 1.0 to 1.2. These studies supported PF-06410293 entry into clinical development. Many regulatory agencies now only request nonclinical in vivo testing if there is residual uncertainty regarding biosimilarity after in vitro analytical studies.
