Re: Assessment of elimination half life of mAb

Dear all, I personaly believe that using log-linear half-life calculated using the biggest dose is the best (if not the "least worst") solution, even if it cannot be pretended to be a beta-T1/2. Indeed, deriving beta-T1/2 using linear PK parameters (V, CL,...) obtained from a nonlinear PK model (Quasi-steady-state, Michaelis-Menten, etc) may lead to surprising parameters. Let us take as an example anti-PCSK9 mAbs, evolocumab and alirocumab. Using the strategy consisting of the use of linear PK parameters, beta-1/2 were : Evolocumab : beta-T/2 = 7.2 days (Gibbs, 2016) vs. 34 days (Kuchimanchi, 2018) Alirocumab : beta-T1/2 = 29 days (Djebli, 2018) vs. 13 days (Martinez, 2018) Therefore, an apparently nice nonlinear PK model does not imply a good "separation" of linear and nonlinear parts, leading to possible misspecification of linear elimination. In addition, the interpretation of linear elimination is what is observed in absence of antigen mass, and thus questions its relevance. Best regards, David ----- Mail original -----
