Title: Using mathematical modeling to find a balance between affinity and avidity for an optimal therapeutic window

Abstract: 

  • For cis-binding bispecific molecules, weaker single-target binding affinity with stronger avidity is used as a strategy to reduce the chances of the drug binding to off-target cells, thereby increasing the therapeutic window.
  • However, the development of a molecule is more complicated once multiple targets are involved. Binding affinities to multiple targets can be optimized; in addition, the expression levels of multiple targets need to be considered when translating from preclinical to clinical.  
  • Mechanistic PKPD models that capture the biophysics of binding and avidity are a powerful tool to guide compound selection and clinical translation. We will demonstrate how to develop a mechanistic PKPD model for bispecifics and how to use the model to predict an optimal therapeutic window.
