CUB-domain containing protein 1 (CDCP1) is a cell surface glycoprotein that is elevated in a range of malignancies and mediates oncogenic processes promoting cancer cell survival, growth, metastasis, and treatment resistance. Increasing preclinical research suggests that CDCP1 could be targeted for delivering imaging and cytotoxic substances to detect and treat cancers with high levels of this receptor in a personalized manner. To support clinical research, it is necessary to further evaluate the in vivo and in vitro efficacy of targeting CDCP1 ADCs to understand their efficacy and safety in clinical applications.
In the study, the antibody, the linker, and the drug are human/mouse chimeric anti-CDCP1 antibody (ch10D7), MC-vc-PAB-NH2, and monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE).
Firstly, the inter-chain disulfides of the antibodies are partially reduced using DTT to generate free thiols, which are then reacted with an excess of maleimide-activated MC-VC-PAB-MMAE in 10% DSMO at 37°C for 2 hours. Any impurities from the reaction are removed by filtering through ultra-centrifugal filters. The drug-antibody ratio (DAR) of the purified MMAE-labeled antibodies is determined to be 4.5 to 4.7 through reverse phase LC/MS analysis of the separated light and heavy chains. Finally, the ch10D7-AMME is purified and concentrated, then stored at -80 °C.

The study indicates the characterization of ch10D7-MMAE in five aspects, including DAR analysis by RP-HPLC, antibody affinity studies by SPR spectroscopy, in vitro cytotoxicity and in vivo efficacy, and ch10D7 accumulates in xenograft tumors in vivo.
ch10D7-MMAE has the same affinity for CDCP1-ECD in comparison with ch10D7 binding affinity to CDCP1-ECD, indicating that antibody affinity is unaffected by the MMAE payload.

The efficacy of ch10D7-MMAE targeting CDCP1 is evaluated in different mouse models of cancer, suggesting that the ch10D7-MMAE ADC is effective against tumors that express CDCP1 at a level above a certain threshold and show responsiveness in vitro (Fig. 3).
