Abstract

Aim: Preexisting anti-polyethylene glycol (PEG) antibodies (APAs) may affect the efficacy and safety of PEGylated compounds. Omontys® and Krystexxa® withdrawal and SARS-CoV-2 RNA vaccine anaphylaxis have all been linked to APAs. This project aimed to develop and validate a method to detect total antibodies against PEG, pre- and postdose. Materials & methods: The repetitive, linear PEG structure prevented the use of a bridging homogenous format, hence the requirement to use a solid phase extraction and acid dissociation assay coupled with the Meso Scale Discovery® platform. Results & conclusion: Using singlicate analysis, the method was validated to successfully detect APA pre- and postdose, with a crucial aspect of the method being the preparation of an appropriate negative control.
