Notes
PF-06804103 = trastuzumab-pelidotin (T-vc0101), a site-specific anti-HER2 ADC: trastuzumab engineered with double cysteine mutations (kappa LC-K183C + HC-Fc-K290C, EU numbering) conjugated via cleavable mc-Val-Cit-PABC (vc0101) to the membrane-permeable auristatin Aur0101 (PF-06380101) at DAR 4; bystander-active. First-in-human Phase 1 NCT03284723 (Meric-Bernstam et al., Mol Cancer Ther 2023;22(10):1191); program discontinued. OCULAR (qualifying signal): Clear on-target/payload corneal auristatin toxicity. Treatment-related keratitis (incl. keratopathy+keratitis PTs) 9 (9.7%) of N=93, with 3 (3.2%) leading to drug withdrawal; maximum ocular grade was Grade 2 (NO Grade >=3 ocular events documented). CT.gov posted all-cause eye-disorder PTs over N=95 (pooled across 0.15-5.0 mg/kg dose-escalation): dry eye 9.5% (9/95), vision blurred 9.5% (9/95), keratitis 5.3% (5/95), keratopathy 4.2% (4/95), blepharitis / periorbital oedema / visual acuity reduced 3.2% (3/95) each, plus single (1/95) cases of ulcerative keratitis, blindness unilateral, corneal disorder, eye pain, photophobia, xerophthalmia, lacrimation increased, macular degeneration, cataract, and infective conjunctivitis. No eye disorders appeared in the serious-events table. Dominant tissue = corneal; subtype = Corneal (off-target). DENOMINATOR NOTE: Paper safety population = 93 (monotherapy Parts 1A+2A); CT.gov AE tables = 95 (adds 2 Part 1B combination patients). Pooled all-cause PT rates computed over N=95 by summing per-cohort affected counts (CT.gov posts per dose group at a 5% threshold), and reproduce the screen's oae_hint exactly. RP2D not formally declared before discontinuation; 4.0 mg/kg was the selected Part 2 dose (3.0 mg/kg permitted as reduced dose). REVERSIBILITY CAVEAT / SOURCE CORRECTION: ae_reversibility left blank because the primary trial publication (MCT 2023) does not state reversibility, and verification indicates the Can J Ophthalmol 2021 paper 'Reversible HER2 antibody-drug conjugate-induced ocular toxicity' (cited in the screen's best_source) actually describes A166 (a different HER2 ADC, RP2D 4.8 mg/kg, corneal epitheliopathy ~30.9%), NOT PF-06804103 — so its 'reversible microcystic keratopathy' finding was excluded to avoid mis-attribution. CHEMISTRY: payload_charge_pH7_4 (+1) is structure-derived (free primary amine at the Aib N-terminus of Aur0101; no carboxylate), tier C; payload MW/XLogP3/TPSA are PubChem-computed for the free payload (CID 71569947, C39H62N6O6S). No clean in-vitro %-intact stability figure available; Graziani 2020 reports high in vivo conjugate stability (cyno ADC/antibody ratio >=0.87; lower free-payload serum exposure than the conventional conjugate). PubChem 'pelidotin' (CID 89582456, C68H100N12O14S, MW 1341.7) is the full mc-vc-PABC-Aur0101 linker-payload, distinct from the free payload used in payload_physchem.
