Incubation Medium Mouse serum
Description
First, we assessed the linker-drug stability of our trastuzumab-based ADCs in serum. To this end, Tras-Exa (DAR4), Tras-Bel (DAR4) and T-DXd (DAR8) were monitored overtime for their payload release in mouse and human sera (Table 2, Fig. S28) by the detection of free exatecan, belotecan and DXd via LC-MS/MS. Following 96 h incubation of the ADCs in sera, minimal amounts of the conjugated payload were released from both Tras-Exa and Tras-Bel ADCs in mouse (0.4% and 0.2%, respectively) and human (0.3% and 0.2%, respectively) sera.
