The objective of this work was to develop a population physiologically based pharmacokinetic (popPBPK) model to characterize the variability in the clinical PK of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) following intravenous (IV) and subcutaneous (SC) administration. An extensive literature search was conducted and clinical PK data for FDA-approved as well as non-approved mAbs were collected. Training and validation datasets of 44 and 9 mAbs exhibiting linear pharmacokinetics were used for model development.

It is still unclear whether systemic injection or local CNS administration of AAV9 is more beneficial for the exposure of the expressed mAb in the brain. Hence, we compared the biodistribution and transgene expression following AAV9-Trastuzumab administration through different routes.

Published pharmacokinetics of nanoparticles in plasma, tumor and 13 different tissues of mice were collected from literature. A total of 2018 datasets were analyzed and biodistribution of graphene oxide, lipid, polymeric, silica, iron oxide and gold nanoparticles in different tissues was quantitatively characterized using Nanoparticle Biodistribution Coefficients (NBC).

In this report, we present for the first time, a full spectrum characterization of transferrin receptor 1 (TfR1)-targeted polymeric nanoparticles (abbreviated, P2Ns-GA) that do not compete with endogenous transferrin, and serve as a versatile platform for oral drug delivery. Based on endocytosis inhibitors and receptor knockdown, the cellular uptake of P2Ns-GA is clathrin-mediated and dependent on TfR1 expression, but other trafficking mechanisms, particularly those involving caveolae/lipid rafts, can also play a role.
