Summary: | Abstract Atezolizumab, a biotherapeutic monoclonal antibody directed against PD-L1, has been shown to be efficacious in multiple oncology indications. In clinical trials, a subset of patients developed anti-atezolizumab antibodies, necessitating the development of a neutralizing antibody (NAb) assay. A bead-based sample pretreatment method was developed to reduce high levels of therapeutic in patient serum samples. Untreated sample variability is reduced by this sample pretreatment, based on this, a novel approach was taken for determining an appropriate assay decision threshold (cutpoint). The therapeutic was added to the samples to mimic typical patient samples. The resulting assay was successfully validated and applied to sample analysis from multiple clinical trials. |
