These agents provide numerous benefits compared to traditional small molecule drugs, though their clinical use still requires optimization. The pharmacology of mAbs/ADCs is complex and because ADCs are comprised of multiple components, individual agent characteristics and patient variables can affect their disposition. To further improve the clinical use and rational development of these agents, it is imperative to comprehend the complex mechanisms employed by antibody-based agents in traversing numerous biological barriers and how agent/patient factors affect tumor delivery, toxicities, efficacy, and ultimately, biodistribution.

  • Horizon Scanning Status Report June 2019
    Statement of Funding and Purpose This report incorporates data collected during implementation of the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) Health Care Horizon Scanning System, operated by ECRI Institute under contract to PCORI, Washington, DC (Contract No. MSA-HORIZSCAN-ECRI-ENG- 2018.7.12). The findings and conclusions in this document are those of the authors, who are responsible for its content. No statement in this report should be construed as an official position of PCORI. An intervention that potentially meets inclusion criteria might not appear in this report simply because the horizon scanning system has not yet detected it or it does not yet meet inclusion criteria outlined in the PCORI Health Care Horizon Scanning System: Horizon Scanning Protocol and Operations Manual. Inclusion or absence of interventions in the horizon scanning reports will change over time as new information is collected; therefore, inclusion or absence should not be construed as either an endorsement or rejection of specific interventions. A representative from PCORI served as a contracting officer’s technical representative and provided input during the implementation of the horizon scanning system. PCORI does not directly participate in horizon scanning or assessing leads or topics and did not provide opinions regarding potential impact of interventions.

David NATURE REVIEWS | D RU G D IS COVERY Supplementary Box 1 | Methods and data 1. Methods 1a. Sample definition and data collection Event data collection The website Friends of Cancer Research (http://www.focr.com/) lists all publicly available Breakthrough Therapy Designations (BTD), which were downloaded with a cut-off on 06/30/18. For partnered products, we treated each partner as if it had independently received the BTD, and thus generated an entry for each co-developing company. For each BTD, we identified the original press release and excluded companies that did not disclose the exact BTD announcement date. Further, we excluded companies that are not publicly traded on a US stock exchange, and those that had incomplete stock price data in the event period (as of 08/24/18). We also excluded BTDs that coincided with major corporate press releases (e.g., quarterly results or clinical trial news). In cases where the same company announced several BTDs on the same date, we retained only one for analysis. This yielded 146 BTDs (102 commercial, 44 pre-commercial). Subsequently, we identified three outliers and excluded them from the final CAAR analysis (see later section). 1 Stock price collection The historical closing stock prices (unadjusted) for the range of -111 days to +90 days around the disclosure of the BTD events were downloaded from https://finance.yahoo.com/. Historical stock prices from delisted companies were downloaded from https://amigobulls.com or https://barchart.com.
