In Vitro
Structure-activity-relationship studies had identified the C3 ester side chain as a critical element for antitumor activity of maytansinoids. The maytansinoids bearing the methyl group at C3 position with D configuration were about 100 to 400-fold less cytotoxic than their corresponding L-epimers toward various cell lines. IMGN901 and DM1-SMe (unconjugated DM1 as a mixed disulfide with thiomethane to cap its sulfhydryl group) were tested in vitro at concentrations ranging from 0.01 nM to 0.1 µM and 0.3 pM to 3 nM, respectively. IMGN901 was tested against a subset of PPTP solid tumor xenografts focusing on those with high CD56 expression.The combination of IMGN901 with topotecan was also evaluated.
In Vivo
Neuroblastoma models expressed CD56 at or above the median expression level for all PPTP xenografts and cell lines. Neuroblastoma cell lines demonstrated relatively low sensitivity to DM1-SMe compared to other cell lines, but the sensitivity of neuroblastoma cell lines to IMGN901 was comparable to that of non-neuroblastoma cell lines. In vivo, objective responses were observed in 9 of 24 (38%) models including, three of seven neuroblastoma xenografts, and two of seven rhabdomyosarcoma xenografts. All xenografts with objective responses showed homogeneous high-level staining by IHC for CD56, but not all xenografts with homogenous high-level staining had objective responses. Combined with topotecan, IMGN901 demonstrated therapeutic enhancement against two of four neuroblastoma models.

DM1-SMe, a potent cytotoxic agent, is instrumental in the development of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) and cancer research. Here are four key applications of DM1-SMe:

Antibody-Drug Conjugates (ADCs): Serving as the cytotoxic warhead in ADCs for targeted cancer therapy, DM1-SMe is a cornerstone of innovation. By conjugating DM1-SMe to specific antibodies, researchers can precisely deliver the drug to cancer cells while safeguarding healthy tissues. This targeted approach heightens the effectiveness of cancer treatments while mitigating systemic toxicity.

Cancer Cell Line Studies: In the realm of preclinical research, DM1-SMe stands as a powerhouse tool for examining the impact of potent cytotoxic agents on cancer cell lines. Researchers expose diverse cancer cell cultures to DM1-SMe to elucidate its anti-proliferative properties and unravel the mechanisms of cell death.

Drug Resistance Studies: Unveiling the intricate web of drug resistance mechanisms in cancer cells, DM1-SMe emerges as a crucial investigative tool. Through the exposure of resistant cancer cell lines to DM1-SMe, scientists delve into the genetic and biochemical pathways underlying resistance. This in-depth insight serves as a foundation for crafting novel strategies to surmount resistance hurdles and elevate the efficacy of cancer therapies, driving innovation in cancer treatment paradigms.

Pharmacokinetic and Toxicology Studies: Embarking on a journey through pharmacokinetic and toxicology landscapes, DM1-SMe takes center stage in unraveling its behavior within biological systems. Researchers meticulously analyze the distribution, metabolism, and excretion patterns of DM1-SMe in animal models to delineate its safety profile. These studies yield pivotal data essential for designing safer and more efficacious chemotherapy regimens, forging a path towards enhanced patient outcomes and improved treatment protocols.

BACKGROUND: ;IMGN901 (lorvotuzumab mertansine) is an antibody-drug conjugate composed of a humanized antibody that specifically binds to CD56 (NCAM, neural cell adhesion molecule) and that is conjugated to the maytansinoid, DM1 (a microtubule targeting agent).;PROCEDURES: ;IMGN901 and DM1-SMe (unconjugated DM1 as a mixed disulfide with thiomethane to cap its sulfhydryl group) were tested in vitro at concentrations ranging from 0.01 nM to 0.1 µM and 0.3 pM to 3 nM, respectively. IMGN901 was tested against a subset of PPTP solid tumor xenografts focusing on those with high CD56 expression.The combination of IMGN901 with topotecan was also evaluated.;RESULTS: ;Neuroblastoma models expressed CD56 at or above the median expression level for all PPTP xenografts and cell lines. Neuroblastoma cell lines demonstrated relatively low sensitivity to DM1-SMe compared to other cell lines, but the sensitivity of neuroblastoma cell lines to IMGN901 was comparable to that of non-neuroblastoma cell lines.
