1. For drug discovery, useful screening tools are essential to select superior candidates. Here, we evaluated the applicability of transgenic mice expressing human neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) (hFcRn Tgm) as a pharmacokinetic screening tool of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and Fc-fusion proteins that overcomes the species difference in FcRn binding.2. Marketed 11 mAbs and 2 Fc-fusion proteins were intravenously administered to hFcRn Tgm and WT mice. The half-lives in hFcRn Tgm and WT mice were compared with those in human obtained from literature. The linear half-lives in human and monkey were also calculated by nonlinear pharmacokinetic analysis. For comparison, correlations of half-lives between monkey and human were also evaluated.3. The half-lives of mAbs and Fc-fusion proteins after intravenous administration ranged from 1.1 to 13.2 days in hFcRn Tgm and from 1.2 to 30.3 days in WT mice. The half-lives in human correlated more closely with those in hFcRn Tgm than in WT mice and monkey.4. Our results suggest that hFcRn Tgm are a valuable and useful tool for pharmacokinetic screening of mAbs and Fc-fusion proteins in the preclinical stage. Furthermore, we believe that hFcRn Tgm are broadly applicable to preclinical pharmacokinetic screening of mAbs-based therapeutics.
