Talacotuzumab

Talacotuzumab (JNJ 56022473) is an IgG1 fully humanized CD123 neutralizing monoclonal antibody containing a modified Fc structure. Talacotuzumab has a high affinity for CD123, CD32b/c, CD16-158F and CD16-158V, with KD of 0.43 nM, 188 nM, 46 nM and 16.8 nM, respectively. Talacotuzumab inhibits IL-3 signaling in target cells by inhibiting IL-3 binding to CD123. Talacotuzumab induces mutations in the Fc region to increase affinity for CD16 (FCγriiia), thereby enhancing antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC). Talacotuzumab inhibits leukemia cell growth in xenografted mouse models of acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

TF-1 cells:33 pM

With an IC50 of 5 ng/ml (33 pM), Talacotuzumab (JNJ 56022473; CSL 362) potently mediates antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) in TF-1 cells [1].
Following a 24-hour pretreatment at 1 μg/ml,Talacotuzumab inhibits the production of IFN-α in plasmacytoid dendritic cells and eosinophils in SLE (systemic lupus erythematosus) donor and healthy donor plasma-like dendritic cells. This inhibition occurs when these cells are stimulated with TLR7 (imiquimod; 0.5 μM; 6 days) and TLR9 (CpG C; 0.5 μM; 6 days). However, Talacotuzumab does not significantly reduce IFN-α production induced by TLR4 stimulation (LPS; 10 μg/ml). The inhibitory effect of Talacotuzumab on plasmacytoid dendritic cell (pDC) proliferation and expansion induced by TLR7 and TLR9 is achieved through the depletion of pDC [2].

In mice with xenografts of acute myeloid leukemia,Talacotuzumab (JNJ 56022473; CSL 362; 300 μg; intraperitoneal injection; three times per week for 5 weeks) significantly delays tumor growth compared to the isotype control [1].
Talacotuzumab (1, 10, 30 mg/kg; subcutaneous injection; single dose) in juvenile cynomolgus monkeys reaches maximum serum concentrations of 12, 190, and 380 μg/ml at doses of 1, 10, and 30 mg/kg, respectively, within 48 hours [2].

Human

Immobilized Human IL-3R alpha/CD123 Protein (His) (TMPY-01410) at 1 μg/mL (100 μL/well) can bind Talacotuzumab. The EC50 is 1.96 ng/mL.
