Conjugate Type
Random conjugation through reduced inter-chain cysteines.
Combination Type
Mafodotin
Absorption
For Belantamab mafodotin (2.5mg/kg), mean Cmax=42 g/mL, Tmax=0.78 hours, and AUC=4666 g*h/mL.
Distribution
The mean steady state volume of distribution of belantamab mafodotin was 11 L.
Metabolism
Monoclonal antibodies are expected to be metabolized to smaller peptides and amino acids. MMAF is expected to be metabolized by oxidation and demethylation, however further data is not readily available. The terminal half life of belantamab mafodotin was 12 days (after the first dose) and 14 days (at steady state).
Elimination
Monoclonal antibodies undergo phagocytosis and are then broken down into smaller peptides and amino acids. These components are eliminated in a manner similar to other proteins. Typically, monoclonal antibodies are not excreted through urine, with only a minor quantity being eliminated through bile.
Toxicity
Data regarding overdose is not readily available. However, keratopathy was seen in 71% of patients. FDA black box warning: ocular toxicity. BLENREP caused changes in the corneal epithelium resulting in changes in vision, including severe vision loss and corneal ulcer, and symptoms, such as blurred vision and dry eyes.
Special Approval(s)
Accelerated approval(FDA); Orphan drug(FDA)

NCT Number NCT02064387  Clinical Status Phase 1
Clinical Description A phase 1 open-label, dose escalation study to investigate the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, immunogenicity and clinical activity of the antibody drug conjugate GSK2857916 in subjects with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma and other advanced hematologic malignancies expressing BCMA.
Primary Endpoint
The primary endpoints of the trial were to determine the safety, tolerability, maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and RP2D and schedule of GSK2857916. Median PFS (post hoc analysis) was 7.90 months (95% CI: 3.1-not estimable),Overall response rate at 3.40 mg/kg in Part 2 was 60.00% (21/35; 95% confidence interval: 42.10%-76.10%).
Other Endpoint
PK profile (single dose area under the curve, maximum serum concentration [Cmax], time to Cmax , clearance, steady-state volume of distribution [Vss], half-life [t]; repeat dose Cmax and trough plasma concentration), the incidence of anti-drug antibodies, and clinical activity measured as overall response rate (ORR), defined as the percentage of subjects achieving confirmed partial response or better (PR) and clinical benefit rate, defined as the percentages of subjects with minimal response or better (MR).
