TIVDAK® Nonclinical Toxicology

(tisotumab vedotin-tftv)

13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY

13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility

Carcinogenicity studies in animals have not been performed with tisotumab vedotin-tftv or MMAE.

MMAE was positive for genotoxicity in the in vivo rat bone marrow micronucleus study through an aneugenic mechanism. MMAE was not mutagenic in the bacterial reverse mutation (Ames) assay or the L5178 TK+/- mouse lymphoma forward mutation assay.

Fertility studies with tisotumab vedotin-tftv or MMAE have not been conducted. However, results of a repeat-dose toxicity study in monkeys indicate the potential for tisotumab vedotin-tftv to impair male reproductive function and fertility.

In a repeat-dose toxicology study conducted in monkeys for 13 weeks, doses ≥1 mg/kg tisotumab vedotin-tftv (≥0.6 times the human exposure [AUC] at the recommended dose) resulted in decreased testicular size and seminiferous tubule atrophy, reduction or absence in sperm count, and decreased sperm motility. Findings of sperm absence and decreased motility did not reverse by the end of the recovery period at doses ≥3 mg/kg (≥1.7 times the human exposure [AUC] at the recommended dose).

MMAE-containing ADCs have been associated with adverse ovarian effects when administered to sexually immature animals. Adverse effects included decrease in, or absence of, secondary and tertiary ovarian follicles after weekly administration to cynomolgus monkeys in studies of 4-week duration. These effects showed a trend towards recovery 6 weeks after the end of dosing; no changes were observed in primordial follicles.
