Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the long-term toxicity of fully human anti-human tumor necrosis factor-α monoclonal antibody(anti-hTNF-α FHMA)for injection in cynomolgus monkeys. METHODS Forty cynomolgus monkeys were randomly divided into 5 groups (4 males and 4 females in each group):negative control group,adalimumab 10 mg·kg-1 group,anti-hTNF-αFHMA 2,10 and 50 mg·kg-1 groups. Cynomolgus monkeys in each group were injected sc once a week for 5 consecutive times, followed by 4 weeks of recovery. During the test,general clinical observation,body mass,body temperature,electrocardiogram(ECG),hematology,coagulation function,blood biochemistry,urine, ophthalmology,immune index,and pathological changes in organs and tissues were observed. At the same time,plasma drug concentrations were detected and the toxicokinetics parameters were analyzed. RESULTS No significant toxicological changes related to drugs were observed in general clinical observation,body mass,body temperature,ECG,ophthalmic examination,blood cell counts,coagu?lation function,blood biochemistry,urine analysis,lymphocyte subsets,cytokines,serum immuno?globulin,serum complement. Neutralizing anti-drug antibody(ADA)could be detected in adalimumab group and anti-hTNF-αFHMA groups. Anti-hTNF-αFHMA showed linear dynamic characteristics in cyno?molgus monkeys. At the same dose(10 mg·kg-1),anti-hTNF-αFHMA had similar immunogenicity and kinetics characteristics to adalimumab. CONCLUSION The level of anti-hTNF-α FHMA at which no adverse effect was observed was 50 mg · kg-1,which is equivalent to 75 times clinical dosage of quasi (0.67 mg·kg-1),which suggests that anti-hTNF-αFHMA be safe in clinical use.
