Aims: Preclinical comparative similarity studies of trastuzumab-dkst, a Herceptin® biosimilar, are reported. Materials & methods: Primary sequence and higher-order structure and pharmacological mechanisms of action were compared using multiple techniques. Pharmacokinetics and repeat-dose toxicity were assessed in cynomolgus monkeys. Results: Primary structures were identical; secondary and tertiary structures were highly similar. Non-significant differences were observed for charge heterogeneity. Twelve of 13 glycan species were highly similar, with slightly higher total mannose levels in trastuzumab-dkst. FcγR and FcRn binding activity was highly similar. Each drug equally inhibited HER2+ cell proliferation, demonstrating equivalent relative potency in mediating HER2+ cell cytolysis by antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity. Pharmacokinetic and toxicological profiles in cynomolgus monkeys were similar. Conclusion: Trastuzumab-dkst, US-licensed trastuzumab and EU-approved trastuzumab demonstrate high structural and functional similarity.
